It has just 1 Block POW (Proof of Work) and then moves to full POS (Proof of Stake) which is designed for large volumes of transactions. Having confirmation speeds up to 75 percent faster than Bitcoin, it is easy to see why Capricoin will be the choice for mainstream adoption and use. Bitcoin has proven that the world wants Crypto Currencies. However it has many inherent flaws. Let’s look at these flaws and how Capricoin is designed to address the issues.

Checkcoin (CKC), Think Foursquare Meeting Crypto Currency

31, Oct 2014

Checkcoin (CKC) is an interesting alternative crypto currency that wants to tie things to real life experiences, and the developers want to do that by combining geolocations with augmented reality and mobile software users that are able to to create, find and reward each other by discovering great places all over the world. You can think about CKC more in the line of Foursquare meeting crypto currency, and if the developers do manage to realize what they have announced as plans this can turn out to be quite an interesting thing. With that said however we do warn you that this alternative crypto currency that uses X11 algorithm and that you can already mine with GPUs and trade on few of the popular crypto currency exchanges is still far from what it should do, but it does have the potential. So you might want to take a look at Checkcoin (CKC) and although we see potential in it you should be warned that we still need to see a lot of development around the announced plans for the coin. We’ve already seen a lot of alternative crypto coins getting announced with big plans and then turning out to be scams or not fulfilling their promises and quickly dying after that.
