10 Best New Bitcoin Alternatives – How to Invest In Them

Bitcoin prides itself as the pacesetter in the world of digital currencies. The advent of Bitcoin led to the later emergence of other cryptocurrencies, (in our words... bitcoin alternatives) built on a decentralized peer-to-peer network. The use of Bitcoins has changed the way people handle money and it also provides a host of benefits/opportunities including a decentralized administrative structure and handsome profit margins. In fact between Jan. 1, 2017 and June 1, 2017, the value of one Bitcoin increased from just under $1,000 to almost $2,500. However, there are underlying worries about the use of Bitcoins. The first borders on the process of creating/obtaining a Bitcoin. This process, also called mining, has become increasingly difficult. Personal and corporate miners complain about the enormous computing power required in mining a Bitcoin, with advanced software applications like the 3 SLi NVidia Graphic Cards falling short. Another worry revolves around the shrinking pool of available Bitcoins for transactions. This continuous shrinkage means that the entry barrier for new and existing Bitcoin users [...]

Here’s Why You’re not Getting Jobs on Upwork – For Nigerians

Hola guys, weeks have gone by, although I honestly haven’t had the time to write blog posts, today, I feel I’ll be able to publish two posts. The other one will be about the Tecno Camon CM! Yes, many of you know I have been a fan of the Camon series ever since the days of the C7. I used the C9, CX, and when I was imagining what next Tecno will bring next, it just happened to be the CMore. Well, back to our gist. So this friend (Freelancer) actually shared an issue with me, and I honestly feel it’s quite different from many of the requests I have gotten (which have always been about getting verified on Upwork). This time, it really was about landing jobs on the platform. I’ll take screenshots of some parts of the profile that we’ll be talking about and actually share “my opinions and suggestions” with all of you guys, hopefully, you’ll find that really helpful. Profile Picture and Overviews For [...]

What Is Bitcoin, Bitcoin Price History, How To Earn FreeBitcoin?

What is Bitcoin? We will not only be talking about what Bitcoin is, I will also show you Bitcoin price history, how to earn freebitcoin and websites that make earning Bitcoins really easy, so read on and feel free to ask questions, please share this article if you do find it really helpful. Bitcoin is a digital currency and a global payment system, established in the year 2009.There are a number of unique characteristics. First off, Bitcoin is the first decentralized digital currency as the system works without a central bank or single administrator. Bitcoin transactions are performed peer-to-peer and directly between users, eliminating the need for third-party agents/intermediaries. One of Bitcoin’s major appeals is the promise of lower transaction fees than traditional online payment routes, with supervision carried out by a decentralized authority, unlike government-issued currencies. Estimates put the current market capitalization for all Bitcoin (abbreviated BTC or, less frequently, XBT) in circulation at over 7 billion USD. Again Bitcoin is a type of cryptocurrency. Balances of the [...]
