Understanding Cryptocurrencies: Game of Thrones Edition

[MrFreeRoMan]

A simple way of understanding cryptocurrencies as told through the popular  TV series,
Game of Thrones.

Bitcoin / House of Stark:		Bitcoin / House of Stark: The legitimate cryptocurrency that came into power. Like Ned Stark, Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared after the launch of Bitcoin; yet, his legacy lives on. Bitcoin is competing with other coins for top market capitalization.
Ethereum / Daenerys:		Ethereum / Daenerys: Like Daenerys, Ethereum believes in smart contracts for the people and wants to remove the middleman chains of society. Additionally, just as Daenerys has set up some strategic alliances, Ethereum has also created smart alliances with big players.
Bitcoin Cash/SV / Cersei Lannister:		Bitcoin Cash/SV / Cersei Lannister: Wants to destroy Bitcoin and claims to be the rightful Crypto heir to Satoshi Nakamoto. Uses strategies to pump up the price in order to displace Bitcoin. Cunning and extremely ambitious.
Litecoin / Jon Snow:		Litecoin / Jon Snow: Came out of Bitcoin’s blockchain via a software fork. Litecoin fought back from its deathly low drop in Sept. ’17 to current ATH (All-time-high) price level. Believed to be Bitcoin’s Silver, aka right-hand man. Quick as “lightning” with transactions (and a sword).
Monero / Arya Stark:		Monero / Arya Stark: The coin that is “Faceless” and has secret origins akin to the House of Black & White. A rebel currency like Arya that rejects the idea that transactions need to be made public. Prides itself on being secure, private, and untraceable.
Zcash / Varys:		Zcash / Varys: The coin that is a master of secrecy and “not the controller or the power-holder” of the currency. A decentralized network and open-source coin that offers privacy and selective transparency of transactions via its secret network.
Ripple / Jaime Lannister:		Ripple / Jaime Lannister: Like Jaime, Ripple is a formidable player but not liked in the crypto world. Wasn’t designed to be a standard crypto and has no mining component. Ripple is centralized and serves financial institutions; the very antithesis of Bitcoin.
Blockstack / Tyrion Lannister:		Blockstack / Tyrion Lannister: Tyrion believes in a new (peaceful) order like Blockstack believes in “A new internet for decentralized apps where users own their data.” Blockstack exercised caution during its ICO, just like Tyrion exercises caution with his strategic plans.
Bitcoin Gold / Stannis Baratheon:		Bitcoin Gold / Stannis Baratheon: Believes that it has the claim to be the true Bitcoin; yet, looks like it just has a small cult of followers that believe in its cause.
IOTA / Baelish:		IOTA / Baelish: Great at convincing people using media tactics, IOTA claimed to have some strategic alliances which never existed. Like Baelish — IOTA uses a mix of FOMO (fear of missing out) tactics to get what it wants from the people.
Cardano / Samwell Tarly:		Cardano / Samwell Tarly: Platform that has evolved out of a scientific philosophy and a research-first driven approach. Team consists of expert engineers and researchers. Just like Sam, it is quite the crypto-scholar.
Tezos / The Hound:		Tezos / The Hound: Standing tall at a $232M ICO raise, Tezos had a nasty battle scar from internal team fighting. It is still yet to be seen whether Tezos will be successful, and there is a chance Tezos will be on the right side of crypto-history.
NEO / Dragons:		NEO / Dragons: Known as the “Chinese Ethereum” NEO was once on fire making 400% gains. NEO also runs on gas to light its flames. It is yet to be seen if NEO will live on like Daenery’s surviving dragons or will succumb to the White Walkers.

Regulators / White Walkers:
Waging a battle on banning and destroying cryptocurrencies. Some regulators are out to ruin cryptos and bring everything back to the currency world. It doesn’t apply to all regulators.

Wow, that's nice! I'm not fan of Game of Thrones (yes, there are people who haven't watched Game of Thrones lol), but I really like this post.
I hope you will find way how to improve layout of your post - resolution and size of images, text size and etc.

Thank! At the moment I can not understand what the problem is! The preview shows perfect! But as soon as I publish, everything is distorted.

Don´t you have this image in a higher quality? This is the best image you have.

Also, I would try to keep your post simpler: Don´t use tables or whatever. Just post each image and its text below. I would also post all images at the same size.

this is a fun topic but it is a horrible comparison between these characters and these coins. for example the worst one in my opinion is Ripple. Jaime Lannister was not a bad character, he was just misunderstood so was disliked. Ripple is a centralized shitcoin that has always tried to hide their centralization and the 100% premine while doing pump and dumps.

as for BCash and BSV i'd say they are more like Petyr Baelish specifically because of the fact that they are feeding off the chaos.
"Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, are given a chance to climb."

I tried a lot of things, but for now it looks better than it was ...
I will continue to look for ways to improve this.

So in the end:

Bitcoin will survive but it will be crippled.
Vitalik will be stabbed by Charlie Lee.
Craig and Roger will get together, have a drink and a brick will fall on their heads.
After the crime, Charlie Lee will be sentenced for life and sent to Siberia
Monero team will move to the Bahamas.
Zcash will get burned by Neo.
Ripple will try to change, will try to play along with other currencies but it will end as BCH/SV.
Blocktsack will survive but it will become so annoying and stupid people will get bored of.
Bitcoin gold will not survive to see any of the other events as it will go down first.
Cardano will live on but it will be the laughing stock of others, coming up with stupid ideas.
Tezos will be hype and it will disappoint in the end.
Neo will grab what is left of ethereum market share and fly away.
