Birthing a crypto baby There are the new digital frontiers that need to be explored and Viacoin is an experiment that will bring solutions for these, built on the shoulders of giants.

What Is Viacoin? Viacoin is a digital currency similar to Bitcoin that allows the creation of applications on top of the Viacoin blockchain in a similar way that email and web are built on top of the internet protocol.

The Story of Viacoin If there is something I have learned over the years, it’s that innovation is incremental and good ideas are usually built on the shoulders of existing, well tested and proven technologies.
