2/28 ANDY HOFFMAN (CryptoGoldCentral.com): BRHODIUM VS. BPRIVATE - WHAT SHOULD INVESTORS CONSIDER?

I expect BRhodium to be the best #Bitcoin crypto-dividend – given a use case I believe to be viable over the long-term, as well as the unique airdrop format in which it was created. Which, unlike hard forks, does NOT require a third party to split it, and does NOT have the stigma of being a Bitcoin clone.

Conversely, I have been crystal clear in my view that BPrivate’s “use case” has massive competition already – which ultimately, will be subsumed by Bitcoin. That said, it has huge community support – principally, from ZClassic speculators thinking they can get rich quick; and a huge marketing budget, which has been utilized to hold public BPrivate conferences.

To that end, USE CASE is what ultimately determines a crypto asset’s success – which is why, over the long-term, I expect BRhodium to dramatically outperform BPrivate.

In BPrivate’s case, much of its success hinges on its development team’s marketing efforts. Led, I might add, by an ardent BCash supporter - which is a MAJOR red flag for me. Specifically, it needs to get leading hardware wallets and exchanges to commit to supporting BPrivate, by 1) splitting it from Bitcoin and ZClassic; and 2) offering BPVT trading. This is particularly relevant for Bittrex, where the vast majority of ZClassic trading occurs – so much so, that believe it or not, it is the second most actively traded coin on the entire exchange!

Adam Meister (@techbalt) has spent weeks discussed this, and all other aspects of the BPrivate fork – which is schedule to occur Friday, based on Bitcoin and ZClassic blockchain “snapshots” later this morning; as on last night’s must listen podcast - during which, he warns of how disastrous BPrivate can be, if Bittrex doesn’t support it. Which in turn, would be a terrible reflection on BPrivate’s development team; not to mention, the kiss of death regarding potential Trezor and Ledger Nano support.

Well, we got our answer this morning – when Bittrex announced it will NOT offer BPrivate trading support (a MAJOR red flag, given how much ZClassic trades there); and NOT distribute BPrivate to Bitcoin holders. It WILL eventually distribute BPrivate to ZClassic holders, so all is not lost. However, the net result is ugly, which is why ZClassic is only trading at 0.009 BTC, just two days before the fork - which could change significantly by the time trading launches, of course. However, if Bittrex hasn’t endorsed it; and Trezor is unlikely to support it any time soon; I am highly skeptical.

To the contrary, BRhodium is slowly, methodically, and on-schedule, moving forward toward its anticipated March trading launch. The re-signing period ends Sunday, with final wallet claiming commencing Monday – also, for a yet-to-be-determined, but limited period of time. After which, the plan is to launch trading by the end of the month.
In BRhodium’s case, not only is its use case – of “leveraged Bitcoin scarcity” - defensible over the long-term, in my view; but it’s community of “BRODLers” will likely have strong hands, given that they are Bitcoin holders (mostly, of “whale” size)…NOT speculators in “penny stock altcoins” like ZClassic. My experience dealing with the “customer service” in BRod’s Discord chatroom has been very positive – and most importantly, BRhodium, as an airdrop, not a fork; and thus, does NOT require exchanges or wallets to split it from Bitcoin or other altcoins.

Given the valuation metrics I have discussed in previous articles, I expect BRhodium to be the second highest priced cryptocurrency, trailing only Bitcoin – and more importantly, to be the BEST cryptodividend of all, over the long-term.
