Company Description

Ravencoin is a blockchain created by the owner of Overstock.com. It is a use case specific blockchain for the declaration of ownership of digital assets. Ravecoin is a fork of Bitcoin, and was originally funded by Medici Ventures, a blockchain investment fund owned by Overstock.com.
Ravencoin's name is inspired by the use of Ravens in sending messages, and its blockchain is designed to carry statements of truth about who owns what asset. The developers created a new consensus algorithm called x16r to solve the problems of centralized ASIC mining. The algorithm is unique in that it consists of 16 different hashing algorithms whose order are randomly changed.

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) is a cryptocurrency that began in 2017 as a hard fork of the Bitcoin blockchain. BTG was created to reduce the monopolizing power of dedicated ASIC mining operations within the original Bitcoin network. Bitcoin Gold mining can be done by anyone with a standard computer and provides greater decentralization to the system. The hard fork that created BTG was meant to combat the disproportionate influence and competitive advantage of professional miners.
