It's nice to see they're still interested in payment-oriented tech in this area, such as Lightning and OmiseGO.
Another one to watch out for is RaiBlocks. Currently has a functioning net, featuring instant, fee-less transactions.
The thing that's really impressing me about RaiBlocks is the community that's around it - so much community dev effort going into payment adapters and services. People are already accepting Web payments with it.
I am holding some, so maybe I've drunk the kool aid but I really feel like it's something worth keeping an eye on or looking into if you're interested in the practical crypto-payments space. There's an active reddit you can find with Google if you're genuinely interested in more info.
- ezekg 9y agoNo, Rai does not have a functioning network as it currently stands. Nodes consistently become out of sync with the rest of the network, which has caused a lot of drama because the exchanges that list Rai had to shut down deposit/withdrawals for weeks. It's only recently that most of those exchanges were able to enable deposit/withdrawals by implementing a workaround provided by the Rai team. But it's far from stable and there is not yet a permanent solution to the Node issues. Even their wallet has consistent sync issues, resulting in the Node getting stuck to the point of having to download a snapshot of the network to be able to get caught up. But, with all that said, I have yet to find a cryptocurrency that left me more impressed than Rai has. My first transaction took 2 seconds to appear in my wallet.
- saosebastiao 9y agoIt looks really promising. Unfortunately, it can only be bought on two relatively unknown exchanges.
