Bitcoin was the first Cryptocurrency, and today it is the most valuable as listed in the crypto or digital currency exchanges like Coinbase https://www.coinbase.com/. This trend to create global currencies, which are tradeable globally is driven by advances in secure ICT technology called Blockchain.
Get practice developing your portfolio of Digital and Crypto Currencies
These crypto currencies give pioneers, early adaptors free coins, as they assist the promoters to build their trusted network, hence they tend to give joiners names like verifier, witness, referrer etc. as they use the people credibility. As with any currency virtual or physical the value is determined by scarcity (store of wealth) and medium of exchange, hence when these coins launch on exchanges and are used a a medium of exchange, they need to be in circulation, hence the distribution to members. As with any high risk venture, some of these crypto’s may collapse. while others will create fortunes for the early adaptors.

Initiative Q a Digital currency for a revolutionary new payment system
Another upcoming digital currency which you can earn the currency before it is listed, is the Q initiative to develop a new payment system using a virtual currency, accessible from your mobile phone. You earn because you build their network and give your credibility to the currency to your circle of influence.
Initiative Q is an attempt by ex-PayPal guys to create a new payment system instead of payment cards that were designed in the 1950s. The system uses its own currency, the Q, and to get people to start using the system once it’s ready they are allocating Qs for free to people that sign up now (the amount drops as more people join – so better to join early). Signing up is free and they only ask for your name and an email address. There’s nothing to lose but if this payment system becomes a world leading payment method your Qs can be worth a lot. If you missed getting bitcoin seven years ago, you wouldn’t want to miss this.
