QuickSilver is a next generation cryptocurrency with a unique focus upon winning the taxicab industry by providing improved security and privacy for consumers, and reducing transactions fees for business owners.  The pre-announcement of QuickSilver was unveiled on October 26th, 2014, but the open sourced software was not officially launched to the public until November 5th, 2014.  This followed a successful ICO which raised 173 BitCoin in crowd share funding, which is going towards the development of the infrastructure and branding necessary to bring the project to success.  QuickSilver is lead by Benjamin Harrison, who has been a part of the altcoin community since 2013 and runs his own writing and editing service called CryptoCurrencyEditor.com.

QuickSilver is an innovative altcoin which is a pure Proof of Stake coin, and has an annual stake rate of 6% with a minimum staking age of 4 hours.  The coin was initially designed with a total of 5,000,000 coins, however, after the coins which went unsold in the presale were destroyed via Bittrex, it's total coin supply was reduced to under 3,500,000.

The wallet's user interface is a next generation wallet with several built in functions which surpass the usability of the first generation QT wallets.  Along with the standard, Overview, Send Coins, Receive Coins, Transactions, and Address Book tabs, it contains an in-wallet Statistics tab which displays current network information, and an in-wallet Block Explorer for convenient blockchain search.

The QuickSilver Team is on a mission to establish QSLV as a meaningful form of payment in the multi-billion dollar taxicab industry to further push cryptocurrencies along the road towards mainstream adoption.  Consumers in large cities are becoming increasingly wary of credit card fraud and cash theft, and QuickSilver provides a swift and secure payment method to protect them from these dangers.  A mobile application is under development which will allow consumers to conveniently load QSLV onto their phone, and then make instant one-click payments at the point of sale.  The taxicab drivers are encouraged to adopt QuickSilver as a form of payment as the drastically reduced fees will lower their bottom line due to the avoidance of expensive credit card fees.  Protection from any potential volatility in the market will be provided through instant QSLV to USD transfers, which will be implemented through the mobile app.  Additionally, plans are in place to rollout a taxicab review system, complete with bounties that consumers can earn for taking the time to review a cab.

The simplicity behind QuickSilver allows consumers who are not familiarize with cryptocurrency to utilize cryptocurrency without even realizing it.  QuickSilver has the ability to achieve where BitCoin has failed by making the process simple to use.  Consumers can easily load cash directly into their QSLV account for instant usage, whereas cash to BitCoin conversion is often a multi-step task that often discourages new consumers from adopting cryptocurrency in their everyday lives.  QuickSilver has designed the process to be easy to use for both the consumer and taxicab business operator.

The concept behind QuickSilver is simple and focused, and could grant a big boost for mainstream cryptocurrency adoption when it begins to catch on in the taxicab industry.  For the purposes of establishing a Proof of Concept for the system, the QuickSilver Team is currently focusing the majority of their efforts upon reaching a level of adoption in New York City, however they are simultaneously building strategic relationships in international markets as well.  The QuickSilver Team is building a future where consumers will be able to use the QuickSilver app on their mobile phone to locate, rate, and review, and hire rides from all sorts of transportation services around the world.  Thus QuickSilver's long-term goal is to reach widespread adoption far wider than just the yellow cabs of New York City. 

The ambition behind the QuickSilver Team's project is tempered by their focus upon reaching achievable goals and milestones, thus the project avoids the common pitfall of aiming too high too soon, and so missing any meaningful goals all together.  QuickSilver is backed by a hardworking and transparent developer team who are determined to leverage their experience in business communication and marketing to make QuickSilver a long-term and widespread success.

APEX Accepted: AS7inRUmpWxoz5HEfrYrEXsFABkHV54zG9

The APEXCoin Team has risen from the depths of despair and is coming back with a new sense of energy and a game plan.  The dev did not waste any time on their comeback from the failed FUD attempt of a hostile takeover.  The dev did not sit idling around as many who lost faith assumed they were, they were busy working their magic behind the scenes as we will soon see their fruits of their labor.  The APEXCoin is back and they're here to stay with their developments doing the talk for them as you will see below.

To start, the APEXCoin worked on their marketing with a banner advertisement display located on the front page of CryptoCoinTalk.com.  CryptoCoinTalk.com is one of the largest crypto community forum next to BitcoinTalk.org.  The enormous amount of daily traffic will help the APEXCoin community spread their reach.  There are more marketing plans in place including a promotional giveaway via AltcoinToday.com.  The giveaway entry includes a simple follow and retweet on Twitter at @AltcoinToday and @APEX13Coin and Like on Facebook as well as posting your Facebook or Twitter handle on the giveaway webpage (http://www.altcointoday.com/apexcoin-new-wallet-wtrading-platform-built-in-and-free-coins/).  The APEXCoin Team did not waste any time spreading the good news of their return to Altcoin City.

The next news revealed is the long awaited webkit wallet.  The dev team worked their magic and was able to finalized the completion of the new webkit wallet.  The new feature added into APEX wallet v2.0 includes trading on Bittrex and Cryptsy within your wallet.  No longer would you have to open a browser to check the APEX market to trade, you can now log into your Bittrex or Cryptsy account all within your wallet.  The best thing is you can send coins from your wallet to exchange and vice versa while keeping a close eye on your coins whether your coins are staking or trading.  APEX wallet v2.0 has launched today, but development does not stop there.  There will be more development and releases in the near future with social media access such as Facebook, Twitter, IRC, etc.  The webkit accomplishment makes the possibilities endless with what the dev team can do.

The concept behind APEXCoin is based on the APEX Protocol, which is an acronym for Adaptive Protocol Environment and X13 for the algorithm.  The drive for APEXcoin is to adapt and adopt the latest desirable technology into their protocol as desired by the community by popular vote.  Adaptation and constantly changing to keep up with the ever changing technology allows APEX to survive and stay relevant in the endless sea of other altcoins that often fall into the dark abyss.  The APEXCoin Team does not seem to want to stop, but to continue to thrive and survive in the altcoin jungle.  The community is eager for more development and are generously donating to the development and marketing fund.

APEXCoin is not your typical altcoin because no other altcoin dev would consider constantly changing their coin protocol at the whim of the community.  You may not know what is the finalized road map of this coin due to its adaptive nature of growth and development, but you can be certain that this is not your typical pump and dump coin.  You may find APEXCoin to be a long term investment.

APEXCoin: A Pure PoS Coin with a Brief X13 Based PoW Period

Courtesy of APEXCoin

APEX Accepted: AS7inRUmpWxoz5HEfrYrEXsFABkHV54zG9

APEXCoin is a next generation cryptocurrency with an unique adaptive development concept.  The open source software was launched on July 11th, 2014 by fully anonymous member of Bitcointalk.org by the name of APEXcoin_Team, created on July 11th, 2014.  The crypto identity of the APEXcoin Team remains unknown, but the purpose of the coin is to follow the APEX Protocol.

APEXCoin is an innovative altcoin that has the X13 proof of work algorithm with a 60 second block timer.  There was a total of 15,000,000 coins with a mining block reward of 750 coins and 5 coins to the development fund, with no large block rewards up front for early miners.  However, due to popular vote by the community, the PoW phase was cut short from 15,000 blocks to 10,000 blocks, thus reducing the total amount of coins to approximately 5,000,000 coins.  As a result, the PoW phase will continue until block 10,000, then APEXCoin will convert to a fully operational proof of stake coin with a 10% annual interest rate after a 24 hour coin maturity age.

The wallet's user interface is a next generation wallet with several built in functions compared to the usual simple first generation QT wallets.  The side tabs includes Overview for viewing balances, Send coins for sending coins, Receive coins for receiving addresses, Transactions for list of transactions, and Address Book for list of wallet addresses.  Special side tabs includes Statistics for current network information, Block Explorer for block chain search, and Social for social media access.

The concept behind APEXCoin is based on the APEX Protocol, which is an acronym for Adaptive Protocol Environment and X13 for the algorithm.  The drive for APEXcoin is to adapt and adopt the latest desirable technology into their protocol as desired by the community by popular vote.  Adaptation and constantly changing to keep up with the ever changing technology allows APEX to survive and stay relevant in the endless sea of other altcoins that often fall into the dark abyss.  There is a premine of 1% for bounties and a small development fund during the proof of work phase to fund development projects in order to attract volume and pursue mass adoption as a cryptocurrency along with application integration outside of the crypto world.

APEXCoin is not your typical altcoin because no other altcoin dev would consider constantly changing their coin protocol at the whim of the community.  You may not know what is the finalized road map of this coin due to its adaptive nature of growth and development, but you can be certain that this is not your typical pump and dump coin.  You may find APEXCoin to be a long term investment.

KryptKoin: A Scrypt Based Pure PoS Coin with a Multipool

KTK Accepted: KVghQgwZxGyqdCr31BPhfYK1EdgePaQNCP

KryptKoin is a next generation cryptocurrency with an unique fair distribution concept of stake distribution.  The pre-announcement was launched on May 12th, 2014 with the intent of fair distribution of a total of 500 stakes in 2 distribution phases.  The open source software and coin distribution was launched on May 21st, 2014 by fully anonymous member of Bitcointalk.org by the name of KryptKoin, created on April 23rd, 2014.  The crypto identity of KrpytKoin and possible dev team members remains unknown.  Also missing is the background information of the dev and purpose for the creation of the coin, which one can only assume the purpose would be up to the community members themselves.

KryptKoin is an innovative altcoin that has the Scrypt proof of work algorithm and with a 30 second block timer.  There is a total of 17,000,000 coins with block maturity rate of 50 and is a fully operational proof of stake coin with a 7% annual interest rate after a 3 hour coin maturity age.  However, the max age is 30 days although as a cryptocurrency it is preferable for you to move your coins around and purchase goods and services as intended.

The concept behind KryptKoin is based on community support as the dev also received a fair distributed share of 1 stake just like the rest of the 499 stakeholders.  Unlike many scam coins or possible scam coins, there is no premine or initial public offering of coins, which makes the launch fair for everyone to mine their share of coins through proof of stake.  As a result, the initial costs and continued costs are being covered from a community donation fund otherwise there are no paid bounties for promotional and development purposes.  The KryptKoin's community members have bonded together to form a community team to help spread the word about KryptKoin for further development of their technology.

With the community's support, KryptKoin was able to launch their very own multipool with pay out in KTK with proof of work algorithm mining capabilities in Scrypt, SHA256, X11, X13, X15, Scrypt-N and Keccak.  For every 1 KTK earned from the multipool, 5% of the earning will be donated to the donation fund.  To encourage mining hash power to the multipool, KryptKoin is promoting a ASIC Scrypt miner rig giveaway to lucky users of their multipool.  The requirement is to mine at least 12 hours, which makes this an opportunity for lower hash powered users to increase their hash power simply by mining to earn an entry in the giveaway.  Clearly, equal opportunity is a concept that the dev cherishes.

KryptKoin is not your typical altcoin because no other altcoin dev would give you a chance to win a material object to help increase your crypto wallet.  There is a promising future for the KryptKoin community, but the only drawback that may deter future investors from buying KTK would be the anonymity of the dev himself.  If you can ignore the risk of trusting the unknown then you may find KryptKoin to be a long term investment.
