I am quite new to the cryptocurrency scene. I started becoming interested in cryptocurrency when listening to an Ethereum presentation that explained how they utilize the blockchain to exchange contracts.
What cryptocurrencies have Utility beyond being a payment method like Bitcoin?
BTW this is my first day on Steemit. Happy to be here!
Taiwan #1
Ethereum/Ethereum Classic: Smart Contracts
Ripple/Stellar Lumens: Payment conversion between currencies
Waves: Smart contracts, exchange
Golem: Cloud computing
Steem: Social network
Gnosis: Prediction market (Running on Ethereum)
Augur: Prediction market (Running on Ethereum)
Sia: Cloud storage
BitShares: Exchange, Price-stable pegged smart assets, prediction markets
MaidSafe: Cloud storage, DNS, internet infrastructure/website hosting
That's a quick pass through some of them...
Thanks Troglodactyl, very helpful list.
