"At this point, there is no way that all of finance isn't going to be torn down and reinvented in the internet's image. It's already started, and it is absolutely impossible to reverse. It's inexorable." ~@JpThieriot, CEO @UpholdInc Click To Tweet "Unlike a bank, people can see the state of our balances in near real-time. Imagine if the banking system did that. You'd never have had a savings & loan crisis. 2008 never would have happened." ~@JpThieriot, CEO @UpholdInc Click To Tweet "It's not us competing with our peers in digital finance & #crypto. It's us competing against the legacy banks, which still hold 99% of the world's money. That's where we should be aimed." ~@JpThieriot, CEO @UpholdInc Click To Tweet [Read more…] about 🎧 Saving, Spending & Trading on Crypto Rails w/ JP Thieriot of Uphold

#38 – Crypto Product Rankings

Welcome to Nomics Update, our way of keeping you in the loop with everything happening at Nomics.

We recently teamed up with Nexo.io to launch crypto’s first algorithmic product rankings. We believe these rankings will serve as valuable buyer’s guides for crypto products and services.

The launch included the following guides:

We’ve since released two more guides: Blockchain Surveillance Companies and Cryptocurrency Debit & Credit Cards.

We also added Lightning Wallets to Crypto Wallets.

We plan to release a new guide each week.

Algorithmic Crypto Product Rankings

Our rankings are set algorithmically with reputation approximated from referral links, news sites, tweets, Reddit mentions, and other sources.

For all entries, links and tweets can be examined by clicking the number of links or tweets:

"After the #MtGox hack, I realized that to bring #bitcoin mainstream, we'd need professional exchanges that can interface w/ regulators & get everyone comfortable and educated." ~@jespow, co-founder & CEO @krakenfx Click To Tweet "We try to find a compromise where we can preserve financial privacy… People respect us for holding regulators and law enforcement to some basic level of decency." ~@jespow, co-founder & CEO @krakenfx Click To Tweet "Regulatory certainty could be an upgrade or a downgrade.

There's very few. It's all $btc, #eth, #stablecoins & fiat." ~Nomics CEO @ClayCollins Click To Tweet "An interesting thing about #crypto is that it's attempting to disrupt traditional finance, but once people enter this new system, they don't seem to want to switch a lot. @Tether_to is a great example." ~Nomics CEO @ClayCollins Click To Tweet [Read more…] about 🎧 Quote Currency Dominance (QCD) & Why It Matters w/ Clay from Nomics.com
