RPICoin (RPI)

RPICoin was initially based on the Blackcoin source, the first dedicated Proof-of-Stake coin. Within a year, we upgraded the codebase to the latest Bitcoin and PIVX source, including new features such as Masternodes, zRPI, Tor, and many more! With PoS 3.0, the security has proven itself over years of testing. The protocol is robust, keeping nodes connected to the network and disincentivizing inactive nodes. Another significant benefit is the cost-effectiveness of PoS, which is immense compared with PoW (Miners). There are reasons why Proof-of-Stake models are becoming more commonplace; even Ethereum is planning to move to PoS, which (to us) are indicators that PoS is mature and production-ready.

RPICoin will contribute by improving open-source solutions, such as a decentralized marketplace and the Open Rights Exchange protocol for connecting API providers and consumers. These tools are being built to provide world-class capabilities to developers worldwide while simultaneously allowing anyone with great code to easily monetize their work and ensure that the value created by the decentralized economy is accrued by the people putting in the work.
