Novacoin is a hybrid Proof of work (POW) / Proof of stake (POS) decentralized peer-to-peer cryptocurrency.The Proof of Work part of Novacoin is based on the Scrypt hashing algorithm. Proof of Stake contributes to the coins energy efficiency, as there is no need for nodes to contribute mining power to part of the money creation process. As of now, Novacoin is set to be capped at 2 billion coins. However Novacoin stated that the cap limit may be lifted if the situation requires it. It looks very much like a variation of Sunny King Peercoin.
A sound currency must be lendable. Our goal is to connect blockchain assets with a straightforward protocol, to create an inter-blockchain lending market, bringing the crypto ecosystem closer to a sound currency. Creditcoin connects many blockchains to create a secure, transparent cryptocurrency lending market, that allows fundraisers and lenders to connect directly with one another.
