RAIBLOCKS XRB: Price, Chart, Market Cap

It wasn’t until @anyx mentioned about it during Steemfest2 that I decided to take a look at it again for the second time. Bought some after reading the abstract and conclusion of the whitepaper. It’s just a simple cryptocurrency that aims to solve Bitcoin’s issues as a currency.

However, we’ve been seeing traders pushing up the price to ~$10 USD for the past couple of weeks. It’s not something that I would hold as I just treat it as a vestigial currency that I’ll sell right away for more Steem Power (or something else). Transactions in  Raiblocks happens instantly, it’s feeless and scalable making it one of the best  P2P networks. All these features eliminate access issues and also the inefficiency of the structure and functionality.

In this paper we presented the framework for a trustless, feeless, low-latency cryptocurrency that utilizes a novel blocklattice structure and delegated Proof of Stake voting. The network requires minimal resources, no high-power mining hardware, and can process high transaction throughput. All of this is achieved by having individual blockchains for each account, eliminating access issues and inefficiencies of a global data-structure. We identified possible attack vectors on the system and presented arguments on how RaiBlocks is resistant to these forms of attacks. The future of currencies are both instant and free-to-transact, or at least half of the market should be swayed into this path.

In addition, the nano network features a wide variety of additional defenses against various possible attack vectors—a full overview of which can be found here. ORV makes Nano extremely energy efficient, positioning it as a more environmentally friendly alternative to proof-of-work (POW)-based cryptocurrencies. “Without inflation to cater for a DAO-like structure for the network, I think the pump experienced by Raiblocks at the moment will unlikely sustain itself over the long-run…”

But as you said, the lack of incentives might be a problem, although i think it’s minimal for a low-energy footprint coin like rai.. It’s a coin that is only generated for author payouts (which is part of the inflation). Like Steem, it has all the same features for fast and free transactions. Theoretically, it’s a currency that should be pegged to $1 USD by the market.

Holding Raiblocks doesn’t earn you more Raiblocks, nor does it have a vested form such as Raiblocks Power. The network already has a fixed supply and doesn’t create new ones. Will it be possible to have instant and free account on Steem? I think Raiblocks’ design that moves away from a global data structure has its perks then which it can scale right away.

How Many Nano (XNO) Coins Are There in Circulation?

When I saw Steem price going up yesterday, I remembered your Steem cruise ship post. The entire concept of programs executing on top of the Ethereum Virtual Machine is something RaiBlocks doesn’t attempt to replicate. Any terms and conditions regarding token acquisition are solely between contributors and the token issuer. Visit the Nano (XRB) page to learn more or read the official announcement. For more information about buying cryptocurrencies with fiat, see our comprehensive guide. Nano is secured by a network of representatives, each of which is voted into position by XNO holders.

That’s a great question, I’d like to believe Steem can do free/instant accounts, but I know others may disagree. It’s a big hinderance for Steem that it requires payment for the creation of an account. This report is written for general information and should not be seen as an endorsement to invest in RaiBlocks or seen as financial advice. My advice to any reader who wants to invest in RaiBlocks is to do a research.

Nano community

Raiblocks is well secure via delegated Proof of Stake(DPoS).For someone to hack the database, the person has to have at least 50% of the online voting power. These vote on the validity of transactions on the nano network, ensuring only valid transactions are confirmed. Regardless, I think any protocols that serve as platforms for quick and free transactions are a necessary part of the future. But there’s just no way of telling which will stay for the long-term, although part of why I like Steem is that has the edge of user adoption. A pessimist will do much better just holding Raiblocks instead of Steem. But Steem could be a better hold if you believe that Steem’s inflation works in bringing in more value and user adoption for the network in the future.

Who Are the Founders of Nano?

  • In order to run the account history plugin with in a high performance mode you need more than 256gb of RAM at this point, which is insane.
  • In total, around 39% of the original genesis supply was distributed.
  • This information is not intended as advice, and you should seek professional or specialist guidance or conduct your own due diligence before making any decisions based on our content.
  • If you’re running a full node though, that’s a different story.

Binance, OKEx and Huobi Global are currently among the most popular exchanges for Nano to crypto trading pairs, whereas it can also be bought with fiat on Kraken and Binance.US. Since representatives do not receive financial compensation for their efforts to secure the network, there is no need for a transaction fee. This makes nano an ideal solution for processing micro-transactions, since users no longer need to worry about fronting a potentially expensive transaction fee when making small payments. As we previously touched on, nano is designed to be fast. So fast, in fact, that most nano transactions reach absolute finality within less than a second — compared to several minutes or even longer for many other major cryptocurrencies.

  • However, it’s important to notice that Steem has a decaying-inflationary protocol.
  • The entire concept of programs executing on top of the Ethereum Virtual Machine is something RaiBlocks doesn’t attempt to replicate.
  • We identified possible attack vectors on the system and presented arguments on how RaiBlocks is resistant to these forms of attacks.
  • In RaiBlocks, a send transaction has to be created by the sender before sending; this will remove the fund from the sender’ account.

Self-described as an inventor, LeMahieu has interests that range from space technology to physics and environmental sustainability, and is a well-known name in the digital currency space. He began working full time on nano in 2017 and remains the Director of the Nano Foundation — an organization created to drive the development and adoption of nano — to this day. I really enjoy your posts when you bring up these cryptos that I have never heard of. Not to mention how you provide unique solutions such as Raiblocks and Iota tapping into SMTs to reward their communities. If you have concerns about the nature, legality, or propriety of a token sale or the involved individuals, please contact with detailed information.

I don’t know how they arrived at that, the coin price nose-dived from $20 as of December 2017 to the recent price of $12.The market capitalization is $1,631,945,097 USD. RaiBlocks is the 20th most promising cryptocurrency of 2017 according to CoinMarket. RaiBlocks is not mineable and can only be gotten through mining of other currencies and exchange them with XRB.

Although they mentioned that it’s only engineered for the simple task of transfer, I wonder if what kind of applications can be built on top of it. The token sale or exchange event is completely independent of ICOholder. ICOholder is not involved in any way, including technical support or promotion. Since nano cannot be mined, the most popular way to get your hands on some is by purchasing it from one of the more than 50 exchange platforms that support it.

In total, around 39% of the original genesis supply was distributed. Unlike many cryptocurrencies which are built on top of a distributed ledger known as a blockchain, Nano is instead built around a similar ledger technology called a directed acyclic graph (DAG). I still remain and definetely enjoy steemit as main social media platform. Not saying that others do not raise interests from me but steemit is the best. In actuality a blockchain is just a network (electronic system used for the transfer of information).

You can actually hedge against Steem’s inflation if you convert your Steem into Steem Power. At its surface, Steem is pretty much the same as Raiblocks when it comes to their use as a currency. They’re comparable in performance from a first person point-of-view. I’ve tried transacting decent amounts on both networks before. However, it’s important to notice that Steem has a decaying-inflationary protocol. The inflation rate reduces every year until Steem has about 2.5 times more total supply in 20 years.
