While other crypts dispute who has the fastest confirmations, or the lowest rates, or if the largest blocks are superior to this or that, RaiBlocks does not need to do so.
Pure cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin that operate only as coins, have no equal. RaiBlocks has zero rates and instant transactions, or as close to the instant as can be said.
Its phenomenal flow of transactions augurs a massive adoption in a short time. It is infinitely scalable thanks to its block lattice technology, something that BTC, DASH, ETH and LTC can not properly claim.
However, there is a short-term problem. For whatever reason, the RaiBlocks seem to have gone into the hands of a large proportion of the most neophytes in the cryptunking.
While the majority of people who have been in the sector for more than 6 months are used to daily oscillations of 10-20%, users of RaiBlocks have proven to be far less balanced.
During low oscillations it is not unusual to see them proclaim that "the sky is falling" and that everyone should sell. This has turned RaiBlocks, now Nano, into one of the most volatile currencies to maintain, even by crypto standards.
