We at CryptoArticles always strive to keep you updated on as many different crypto currencies as humanly possible. With that promise in mind, I would like to take a look at HTMLCoin with you.
The HTMLCoin motto is quite impressive, as in, it’s a very strong message : “Safe, simple and cheap : no third-party seizure- no taxes – no tracking – no risk of “chargebacks” – no transaction costs”. That certainly got my attention!
Other than just aiming at individuals, HTMLCoin also wants to focus towards charities, as we have seen being done by quite a few other crypto currencies as well. There will also be giveaways towards student organizations and advocacy groups.
The plan for HTMLCoin is to release multiple Android applications in order to make the coin “mobile”, so you can take your HTMLCoins with you everywhere you go. the terminology being used is “almost omnipresent characteristics”. Impressive language!
On to some more technical info the, once you guys all recuperated from those fancy words and put your dictionaries away to look up the parts you didn’t understand! (This is meant a joke, not trying to be offensive here)
HTMLCoin is a Proof-of-Work Scrypt coin, with 100,000,000,000 total coins. Each block rewards you with 50,000 HTML, and the difficulty will change every 8 hours. However, the developer is currently working on altering the difficulty adjustment time from what I’ve heard.
Another thing to note is that HTMLCoin currently has no Mac OSX wallet available. I’m not sure whether this is still being worked on right now, but I’d assume so. You can’t aim for an audience comprised of students without supporting Mac OS X I’m afraid.
If you are interested in buying or selling HTMLCoin, you can head on over to the BleuTrade exchange (which, as of this writing, seems to be down). MintPal voting is underway as well, and you can cast your vote by clicking here.
You can check out the official HTMLCoin website , as well as the HTMLCoin thread on BitcoinTalk.
P.S. I very rarely voice my opinion on these coins when they are freshly released, but I’m not too positive on HTMLCoin’s approach at the moment. Development seems a bit iffy, there will be way too many coins, and I’m not sure this will ever have a future. But it can all still be turned around, so I’ll hold off final judgement for a few weeks.
HTMLCOIN Community is positioning the coin towards students, non-for-profit organization,and charitable institutions. Htmlcoin is composed of professionals and graduate students who are supporting our community. Below is our explanation about our coin:
A big difference from Other Altcoins
People always ask what makes us different from other altcoins? –the answer is that we are focusing in integrating the use of htmlcoin to the mainstream, not just within the enclave of early adopters (Techy people like you and me). Mainstream would mean to the public, common people you meet on the street. In the coming months we will be releasing android apps to make htmlcoin mobile. This will ease the burden among users by taking htmlcoin with them, in the pocket, anytime-anywhere! We want our coin ubiquitous, with almost omnipresent characteristics like fiat physical coin.
Making htmlcoin mobile will solve the problem of time and space. Users dont have to open bulky laptop, or even worst, desk computer to make transaction. Easing the burden would positively affect the acceptance among mainstream users; this is the very core of the HTMLCOIN Community – cryptocurrency integration to the public.
We believe that the recent IRS guidelines strengthen cryptocurrency’s intended use as a medium of exchange. However, mainstream still view cryptocurrency being illegal and difficult to comprehend. HTMLCOIN Community want to change this negative stereotype about altcoin by educating the public about the many benefits of cryptocurrency and its potential application to offer in everyday life. We do this via social media and awareness drive. For HTMLCOIN government regulation means that cryptocurrency is not going anywhere, but it is here to stay for good.
HTMLCOIN aims for the long-term goal, not short one. We are guided by our 6-12 month strategic plan.
After 6 month from launching, we will be adding 4th priority, that is "facilitating market place environment." Meaning, we will be focusing on establishing relationship with app developers whose applications will facilitate exchanges of goods and services, such as mobile wallet, payment systems, and related add-on functions.
The moment we reach 10,000 + worldwide, we then can then leverage, as a cryptocoin community, bring change in what we envision as a group. That is technology innovation and charitable cause.
