I thought I start this thread so I can point out why I think BTCZ is by far a different cryptocurrency and one that will have a big impact in the future of this market. In my opinion (and this is not a financial advice) BTCZ is going to quickly expand into a major players in the next two years. BTCZ is nothing comparable to other coins. Here are some characteristics of BTCZ and why it is called Bitcoin 2.0 (BitcoinZ):
No Premine(90% of coins cannot claim that)
No ICO(ICO, DAICO and Premine are practically the same thing). Unlike and ICO/DAICO an investment in BTCZ does not make Vitalik richer.
No Free Airdrop(When people get something for free, its easy for them to dump it, look at BTCP with massive airdrop and BIP9 free coins for devs, and all ICOS that fall 99%)
No Developer Tax (Just like the now abandoned ZCL, BTCZ does not have Dev tax)
No Slow Start(Whatever the F that was, most Equihash coins abandoned that marketing garbage)
No POS(Only Proof of Work bring value, POS is basically paying interest to the rich diluting current holders, like what banks do)
No Staking Tax(Staking is the same as POS, like Bitconnect and BTX, basically collecting interest for the rich, like a CD at the bank)
No Supernode Tax(Again this is like Staking and POS, you get money just for being rich, this is banking system, diluting others)
Android Branded Exclusive Wallet(forget ZCL, BTCP, and Zen, ZEL, even ZEC/ZCash doesnt have a branded Android wallet).
This means someone like Coinami, Freewallet, Trezor, etc cannot claimed that they were "hacked" one day. You and only you hold your private keys and no one else has them.
Superfast transactions. (Have you tried the Android wallet?)
Windows Branded Exclusive GUI Miner (Nope, ZCL, BTCP, Zen, ZEL, even ZEC/ZCash dont have that)
No shady people in the dev team (such as Rhett, Cryptojack, and specially Tai Zen and Leon Fu behind the project. BTCZ is a community driven project without single "kings" ruling the development)
Extremely low marketcap below $10M that will allow much growth.(If the market cap is over $100M you may be too late to the game already)
Proper denomination, coin count(Unlike many others. So a $1.50 cup of coffee could be priced 1.50 BTCZ unlike it bring priced 0.00000000150 BTC or 0.0000150 XMR that will never be adopted.
Significant Development in Web APIsLook at projects such as
https://btcz.meSignificant achievements on eCommerce Payment GatewayLook at eCommerce plugins here all developed and available to the public for free:
https://btcz.in/# with terrible marketing, no one knows about it, well yet. The only other coins with this much work done are Dash and maybe Bitcoin. Unfortunately both DASH X11 and BTC SHA256 coins are centralized by ASICs now so the ownership and control is by Bitmain and dominated by those with low electricity cost and cooler regions, and no GPU mining for the avg person.
Currently Listed on TEN exchanges and more to come:TradeSatoshi, Stocks.Exchange, Coinbene, Exrates, Crex24, C-CEX, BTC-Alpha, BarterDEX, Graviex, Cryptobroker.io (not recommending any exchangings, just making a list)
TXTzOne of the first projects to allow sending cryptocurrency with a dumb phone with a simple text (SMS messaging) only.
ZHash Technology - ASIC KillerThe first project to switch over to 144.5 Algo and kill off the new Bitmain Z9 and Inno A9 Equihash miners. BTG and others were very slow in making the change and many Equihash coins still have not made a change.
KioskZA true POS (Point of Sale) system. Introducing Kiosks for Restaurant use. Very cool device to allow BTCz payments for restaurants.
