Paybase


PayBase is the platform launched by GAW,  a platform that is created for transactions and services with XPY(PayCoin - the coin developed by GAW).

XPY, The Coin

I just want to take a moment to address XPY as a coin. I think what GAW is trying to do with their coin is an excellent concept, brining it to mainstream consumers. One way they said this can be done is the spending it at large online merchants which is a good start. One of the reasons they thought brining crypto to the masses is building the XPY floor. What they mean by floor is the minimum price of their coin (stated to be $20 USD), making it's volatility very little, or non-existent. GAW has dropped the ball for keeping the floor, the coin being averagely around $3 USD. I'm not saying that it will never get to the level,  however, i don't think anytime soon.

Current Features

Currently, PayBase allows users to store their XPY(PayCoin) in PayBase, and buy/sell XPY. It has an internal market that deals exclusively with BTC and XPY. This is as far as functionality has gone with the platform as of today.

Future Features

GAW plans to create a bill payment service, a gift card purchasing service, and a plugin to purchase with large online retailers. These features don't have any dates set in stone (or pencil for that matter).

Overview

GAW has made a lot of promises for this platform. I'm not going to bash GAW because they are a very ambitious company, however, they have really been dropping off the map as far as deliverables on a  set amount of time. Earlier this month they told users that it would be released at a set time, but didn't end up releasing their platform until 3-4 days later. Now, you might be thinking "well, a few days is no big deal!", sure, it's  not. BUT, it speaks to their professionalism. As a web-developer, i would never make a date i couldn't keep, and you need to incorporate the unexpected when setting a release date, especially of this size.

BTC-Flow

Today I'll be giving a bit of a look into BTC-Flow . It's a game based bitcoin faucet that has me pretty into it. No more of the jumping from site to site clicking your way through pop ups and other fun activities. The concept of the game is that you run a  company. At first, your company mines bitcoin and has a earning rate of 0.0000015 BTC/Min and your max capacity is 0.000012 BTC. Your part in running this company is getting the bitcoin from your company either before or after your max capacity is hit. You then need to click once your bitcoin capacity is reached to put that balance into your main bank. From here you basically repeat this as much as you'd like. If you really enjoy this, you can "level" your business with bitcoin to increase capacity and earning/min at any point. If you like faucets, you need to check this out . BTC-Flow.com

PoolWarz SHA-256 Auto-switching

What Is Pool Warz? PoolWarz is a pool (with a collection of different mine able coins) that has a little bit of a different approach to the set up of your miners. Creators of this site also bring you CoinWarz , and RigWarz , now have their own pool, they're not linked to one another however. Within PoolWarz , when you create a worker, you only point your hardware at one URL, as opposed to multiple different URLs for separate coins. At anytime you can alter what coin this worker is mining by changing where it's pointer (or "assigned" to ) on your dashboard in your PoolWarz account. Subscription There is an option to pay a monthly subscription fee to PoolWarz for a 0% fee (as opposed to their standard 2% fee) and also getting the ability for "auto-switching". If you've been mining for a while, you'll know the concept of "auto-switching" because it's the same as a multipool basically, except you keep all the coins you mine. ...
