Hey guys, what about discussing the most promising businesses that use the Block chain technology. I would start with those companies that have already raised some financing from venture capitalists - so it at least somebody is sure in their potential. It would be real interesting to speak not only about bitcoin/litecoin projects, but about Block Chain potential in General. So here is the list of first ones:
Coinbase, $31.7, one of the biggest bitcoin wallets
Xapo, $20.0M, bitcoin wallet, that could be connected with a credit card
Bitstamp, $10.0M, bitcoin exchange
OKCoin, $10M, bitcoin exchange
Kraken, $5.0M - bitcoin exchange
Coinsetter, $1.27M, bitcoin exchange
21E6, $5.05M, bitcoin minining
Avalon Clones, $3.0M, bitcoin minining
CoinTerra, $1.3M, bitcoin mining
BitPay, $2.51M, Bitcoin payment processor
GoCoin.com, $2.05M, Bitcoin payment processor
Vaurum, $2.0M, Bitcoin exchange platform for banks, brokers etc
BitcoinShop.us, $1.88M, online retailer
Your ideas:
Circle is another one huge project in terms of funds allocation with $26.0M investments. Developing digital currencies payment platform
Updown, binary options service. Fundraised $1,75M
Bitmixer.io lets investors share in BTC mixing profits for a minimum investment of 100 BTC

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

... I am interested in this topic as well. *** Earlier this evening, I saw that bitmixer.io will let investors share in BTC mixing profits for a minimum investment of 100 BTC (approx. $44,000). That is MIXING coins, not mining them. I have not looked into this. |

Next generation mining companies like coin terra and 21 e6 look interesting and well poised to succeed as bitcoin reimagines money systems

Nice list.
In the long run, I think the mining companies will fall behind the exchanges and services as mining becomes increasingly difficult/on the verge of impossible.

It really depends on the means of use of mining. Obviously there is a possibility that not only cryptocurrencies will be utilizing blockchain technology |

Gambling is by far the biggest market in bit coin at the moment. As the economy develops this will change, but in the short term it is an easy way to grow.

The list stirs some awkward feelings in me. I've never used a single one on the list. (except BitPay on a few occasions)
Either I'm not even close to the target audience of VCs or.......

Black market exceed gambling by many folds. You are probably right but that is tough to quantify. The various vices are always great currency generators. |
