I have been on board with Rimbit for just over 1 year now. As I researched crypto coins, the mining aspect seemed to be a great big negative as now only the very wealthy companies can afford the hardware to perform the confirmation functions.
They do earn new BTCs for their efforts, but as the cost and complexity increase continually, how long can they afford to keep upgrading the massive hardware cost? Now about 20 firms control 90% of BTC. And the big 3 control 51%, all in China.
This isn't a community coin any longer!
RBT on the other hand is controlled by the people with wallets and do the confirmation themselves. In exchange, they earn 5% per annum on their RBT holdings in the wallet. There is never any expensive hardware to but to get started. Any Windows, Mac or Linux computer is all you need.
Rimbit is crypto version 2.0 - just a more sensible way of doing things
