Topic: What about Hedera Hashgraph? - page 2. (Read 534 times)

I always feel anticipation about new coins, because it gives hope and proves that cryptocurrency is here to stay, that it's not a dead end.

That's certainly true, mate. If the ICO price was lesser than the current price per coin, then I'm afraid that early investors of hbar will dump the cryptocurrency over time. Not to mention, its total supply is huge with billions of coins in circulation. This would prevent hbar from further rising in price as they lack scarcity within the market (unlike Bitcoin). Because of the way hbar was designed, I'm afraid that it would only be worth cents (USD) instead of dollars across the crypto market. Despite the price issue, Hashgraph makes use of a technology similar to a DAG where it puts scalability in mind.

Of course, there are far better Blockchains out there. However, Hedera could gain traction within the mainstream world as it forms partnerships among recognized businesses and Banks alike. It could greatly rival XRP and even XLM as we know it. With a good amount of marketing/promotion, I don't see why hbar will become a success within the future. As we all know, most cryptocurrencies with inferior technologies than others have succeeded within the mainstream world because of their marketing/promotion techniques. With this, the crypto project could generate a lot of hype among its investors leading it towards new heights.

All in all, hbar would need to prove itself unique among its competitors by delivering breakthrough technologies and features that were never before seen. With IOTA, NANO, Constellation, and even Coti in place (which make use of a DAG) the competition will become extremely fierce for Hedera Hashgraph. Just my opinion

People FOMO buying HBAR will be sore losers, Seed investors will keep dumping as they've gotten their share for $0.001 I believe. HH isn't any special there are way better blockhains that can outpace HH in many ways, The only special about HH is their partnerships.

Hedera has garnered support from telecom players and tech vendors, even those that have their own blockchain services. Indian tech giant's Tata Communications, IBM, Deutsche Telekom, and FIS Global, which acquired WorldPay earlier this year, are among 10 companies on Hedera's governing council.
Hedera claims that its Hashgraph is capable of processing more than 10,000 cryptocurrency transactions per second, at the cost of approximately $0.0001 in fees per transaction.
25 - 60 cents per one HBAR in near future I think

In my opinion they need a very good marketing to survive. They have strong competitors with a strong community like IOTA.  The target should be to stand out from the masses and build a solid community around the project, build good Partnerships and try to have more news especially good news. Many very good projects fail because the marketing. You can have the best product, but if you are the only person who knows that the product exists, it's worthless.

Seems the project is sacrificing decentralization to achieve high tps according to this website https://cryptoslate.com/hedera-hashgraph-sacrifices-decentralization-throughput/. And it has managed to attract the backing of major corporations. Interesting...

Very interesting project, many good exchanges. Bittrex for example. By the way HBAR is very hot now, panic buy will be happen

IMHO the immutability of DAGs has been not proven yet, and it will take time to while cases in real use test fault tolerance

thi project now on coinmarketcap
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/hedera-hashgraph
when i look at the explorer the circulating supply is about 1,569,489,797 HBA
https://hash-hash.info
seems this alt will be at the TOP list on coinmarketcap, when the site updates its circulating supply

Hedera has been quite silent for some time after it's Hashgraph blockchain was announced. Not much as been known of the cryptocurrency until now. While I admire the technical aspects of Hashgraph, I believe that it needs more marketing/promotion in order to achieve real uses within the mainstream world. As not many people know about this revolutionary cryptocurrency, demand will be at its lows. It's yet to be seen whenever the mainnet launch of Hashgraph will trigger a boost in mainstream adoption.

Comparing Hashgraph versus other DAG-based cryptocurrencies, I'd say that it's more of the same. I don't see any difference between Hashgraph and popular DAG-based cryptocurrencies like NANO and IOTA. The Hedera team would need to prove that Hashgraph is superior than existent DAG-based cryptocurrencies. Other than that, I don't see it going anywhere in my opinion.

Nonetheless, Hashgraph's launch will experience contention among already established players such as NANO, IOTA, Constellation, and Coti. Only one of these cryptocurrencies will prove to be the best in terms of scalability and mainstream usage. We'll have to wait and see how everything unfolds for Hashgraph by Sept 16, before rushing to any conclusions.

Not too much news in the past few months but now it looks like big things in the near future as Hedera Hashgraph will launch its blockchain in beta and begin releasing its $HBAR tokens to investors on Sept. 16.

Hedera Hashgraph Blockchain to Launch, Release Coins Starting Sept. 16

Hedera Hashgraph, a blockchain-like public network for enterprises, is adding a U.S. financial giant to its governing council.

Hedera announced Thursday that FIS Global will become the ninth addition to its 39-member council. Hedera also announced that it intends to launch its mainnet in beta on Sept. 16.

It's been quite some time since Hedera Hashgraph has been announced, which aimed to be a competitor of popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The team behind this new cryptocurrency, claims that Hashgraph can replace the Blockchain as it's faster, and more scalable than any other cryptocurrency today. However, to me it seems that this cryptocurrency is nothing more than another DAG coin like Nano and IOTA.

Despite this, Hashgraph hasn't been released yet (as far as I'm aware) and it's not available for trading across the crypto market. Whenever it will be able to overcome top-tier cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum is yet to be seen.

Nonetheless, what are your thoughts about this?
