Unmasking ReddCoin (RDD)
Reddcoin (RDD) is a decentralized social digital coin that permits any person to instantaneously send and receive RDD payments on social networks without any transaction fees.
It is actually the blockchain version of Facebook cash, Snapcash or Venmo that let you effortlessly transfer money to loved ones through their particular social media platforms. Now that the ReddID has been unveiled, ReddCoin is beyond the sky.
ReddCoin Team And History At A Glance
John Nash heads the Reddcoin project. He is the Chief Technical Officer (CTO). The team consists of basically 13 members who are spread across Europe, Australia and North America Amongst them is Chris Whitesock and Jay Laurence.
After an IPCO (Initial Public Coin Offering) in which $100,000 was raised, Reddcoin (RDD) was released to the public in February 2014. Reddcoin initially started out as a variant of Litecoin in January 2014, as at then it was using Scrypt as the Proof-of-work (PoW) hash algorithm. It changed to its own Proof-of-Stake-Velocity (PoSV) algorithm in August 2014.
The PoSV protocol originally designed by the ReddCoin team is a new adaptation on the PoS hash algorithm that encourages ownership (stake) and velocity (activity).
The modifications were made to PoS in order to promote more active network participation thereby addressing the needs of its social currency to inspire activity and ownership.
The chief difference between PoS and PoSV algorithm is that PoS have linear coin aging while PoSV has non-linear coin aging. Since it is a built-in feature of the downloadable official wallet, ReddCoin (RDD) users automatically mints Reddcoins when staking.
