Skycoin Digest: The 5 Pillars of Skycoin [INFOGRAPHIC]

The 5 Pillars of Skycoin

1. SKYCOIN

A truly decentralized, 51% attack proof, lightning quick cryptocurrency that was designed to fulfill Satoshi’s original vision.

2. SKYWIRE

A mesh network that allows you to earn Skycoin for forwarding traffic/bandwidth. This is a similar to Tor or BitTorrent, except that you will be paid to participate.

3. FIBER

A platform similar to Ethereum’s ERC20 platform, in the way a 2018 Bugatti Chiron is similar to a 1992 Geo Metro. They are both cars after all.

4. DECENTRALIZED APPS

An ecosystem of apps being built on top of the previous three things.

5. SKYMINERS

Our very own hardware platform. The Backbone which supports it all.
