Bitcoin Alternative YoCoin, a New Cryptocurrency with Mainstream Appeal
Cryptocurrency has become a phenomenon that will not be going away anytime soon, and YoCoinis leading the charge to take cryptocurrencies mainstream and make them accessible to everyone.
Unlike most of the alternative cryptocurrencies, YoCoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency based on the Scrypt mining algorithm, making it far more accessible than Bitcoin is when it comes to mining. Anyone with a decent graphics card in their computer can start mining YoCoin at home with little effort. With wallets available for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows, no digital currency enthusiasts are left behind. For those looking to buy YoCoin, there are several exchanges to choose from. YoCoin is actively traded on exchanges such as C-Cex, SafeCex, Alcurex, CoinExchange, Bloombit, and others.
Targeting the younger crowd, especially millennials, is one of the main reasons why YoCoin was created in the first place. YoCoin sees itself as the premier internet currency, providing a once in a lifetime opportunity to help revolutionize the business world and payment systems of today.
“We’ve been working hard on this project for a long time,”
Said Dave Wilson, Chief Operating Officer of YoCoin.
“We look forward to taking YoCoin to the next level and beyond.”
With a dedicated development roadmap in place, there is plenty to look forward to when it comes to YoCoin. On the to-do list are the release of a mobile wallet for Android users, as well as the issuance of physical YOC coins. These limited edition coins are great gifts for friends and family, and they make for great collectibles as well.
Any cryptocurrency is only as useful as where it can be actually used, and the YoCoin team is working hard on establishing new use cases every day. Bringing this cryptocurrency to casino platforms and other merchants is planned for the coming weeks.
