Coins To Watch: Week of April 23rd

This is not meant as financial or trading advice. It is simply meant for entertainment purposes. Cryptocurrencies are very volatile and risky and should be exercised with caution. Do your due diligence before making any investments. 

 Bitcoin

• Current Ranking #1
• Change (24hr) 0.03%
• Volume (24hr)  $7,086,420,000 USD  795,540 BTC
•  Market Cap   $151,485,779,836 USD
  16,995,362 BTC  

Bitcoin is the life force of all things crypto. When it falls, altcoins follow. When it soars altcoins go along for the ride. With positive sentiment coming back into Bitcoin, this could be the perfect catalyst for a bull market
 

 Iota

• Current Ranking #9
• Change (24hr) 3.23%
• Volume (24hr)  $96,972,300 USD
  10,886 BTC 
• Market Cap $5,877,150,012 USD
  659,783 BTC  

 In spite of all of the flack they have gotten for lack of a user-friendly GUI wallet interface Iota have been hard at work securing Partnerships with InnoEnegy + Obo and having detailed talks with VW. Things are on the up-and-up with this project and their promising Tech. 

NEO

• Current Ranking #10
• Change (24hr) 1.18%
• Volume (24hr)   $132,193,000 USD
  14,841 BTC 
• Market Cap  $4,943,731,000 USD
  555,019 BTC
  

 

NEO should be no stranger to anyone by now. With the recent release of its first-ever DEX and increasing list of ICOs on the platform things are certainly looking bright. 

 VeChain

• Current Ranking #17
• Change (24hr) -1.19%
• Volume (24hr)   $80,801,700 USD
  9,071 BTC
  126,604 ETH 
• Market Cap  $2,019,518,285 USD
  226,716 BTC
  3,164,265 ETH 

Vechain - is one of the leaders in the Supply Chain management space and a force to be reckoned with. With numerous massive Partnerships already in place, and with the Thor update set to be released very soon this could prove to be the Boost needed.  

 Icon

• Current Ranking #21
• Change (24hr) 8.54%
• Volume (24hr)  $80,035,800 USD
  8,985 BTC
  125,243 ETH 
• Market Cap  $1,470,147,086 USD
  165,049 BTC
  2,300,534 ETH 

 Icon is a bright Korean project with many of the same aims and ambitions as its competitors like Etheteum and NEO. Being listed on listed on Korea's largest Exchange should bolster confidence and interest in this home grown project. 

 POA Network

• Current Ranking #130
• Change (24hr)  -1.05%
• Volume (24hr)  $8,695,780 USD  976.25 BTC  
• Market Cap  $117,838,832 USD
  13,229 BTC  

 

Perhaps the least known project and rounding out the list, we have POA.  It too is in the same space as the other platforms so there is some quite stiff competition. POA has the added benefit of cross chain communications with other blockchain making it a project to look out for this month, and beyond.
