In January this year, Wechsler, an asset rating agency on Wall Street, announced an evaluation of cryptocurrencies. They rated 74 cryptocurrencies from four aspects: risk, return, technology, and foundation, and divided the final evaluation results into A and B. , C, D four grades.
According to the rating table released in January, BTC is rated C+, the best rated are ADA, NEO and STEEM, all of which are rated B+, while ETH and EOS are rated B.
After the rating table was released, several coins that were not well-received but overrated rose by 200% within 24 hours, so many people questioned the authority of this rating.
Recently, according to the trend of the entire currency market, they re-adjusted the rating, this time BTC was adjusted from C+ to B-, and the five most secure currencies were: BTC, XRP, EOS, NEO and STEEM.
Coin King BTC needs no introduction. EOS has attracted a lot of attention recently. We also introduced it to you before →_→ It has skyrocketed 30 times in 3 months and is now the sixth largest cryptocurrency. Can EOS rise to $1,000? Today we will focus on XRP, NEO and STEEM.
XRP
XRP, or Ripple, is currently No. 3 on the list of blockchain assets by market capitalization, behind Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Ripple was issued in 2011, with a total currency of 100 billion. It suddenly began to soar in May last year and January this year, and its market value even surpassed that of Ethereum for a time.
Ripple has established the world's first open payment network, through which it can realize the mutual transfer between soft sister coins, US dollars or bitcoins, and the transaction time is only 3 to 5 seconds, and the cross-bank and cross-border handling fees are almost zero.
Ripple has received investment from more than 20 venture capital companies including Google and Softbank, and even Obama has used it as a platform. At present, banks from 60 countries have joined the Ripple protocol.
NEO
NEO is a blockchain project born in China, also known as Little Ant Coin, which currently ranks ninth on the blockchain asset list.
The total amount of NEO currency is 100 million, and it has skyrocketed since the second half of last year. The price peaked at $155, or about 971.6 soft sister coins.
NEO uses blockchain technology and digital identity to digitize assets, and uses smart contracts to automate the management of digital assets to achieve a "smart economy".
Da Hongfei, the founder of NEO, said that NEO’s target is Ethereum, but unlike Ethereum’s decentralization, NEO is still under the control of several co-founders and employees.
The Chinese market and unified control may be the way to survive for NEO.
STEEM
STTEM is the token of the decentralized social platform Steemit, which currently ranks 31st on the blockchain asset list.
STTEM has been rising since May last year, and it broke out in January this year. The official estimate is that 100 million coins will be issued.
After users publish content (including articles, pictures, comments, etc.) on Steemit, they can get a system reward token, which is STEEM, according to rules such as votes and comments from others.
Steemit's CTO is Daniel Larimer, now the founder of EOS.
As an organization that evaluates digital currency, Wechsler's evaluation results will have an impact on the currency market, but whether the impact is positive or negative depends on your own judgment. Of course, if you want to discuss together, you can also follow us!
