Overview Of 15 Cryptocurrency Assets

Assets are tokens that are built on top of a parent blockchain (usually one made specifically to allow asset creation). I decided to look into 15 different assets that live on the Ethereum, Omni, NXT and Counterparty blockchains. I have listed each asset alphabetically in the table below along with their ticker symbol, parent blockchain, main feature (in my opinion) and the country in which most of the team resides. Hopefully this will provide a quick overview for those just starting to look into assets.

Asset	Ticker	Blockchain	Main Feature	Country
Ardor	ARDR	NXT	Child blockchain services	Netherlands
Augur	REP	Ethereum	Market prediction platform	USA
Bitcrystals	BCY	Counterparty	Gaming token	Switzerland
DigixDAO	DGD	Ethereum	Backed by gold bars	Singapore
Gnosis	GNO	Ethereum	Market prediction platform	USA
Golem	GNT	Ethereum	Distributed computing	Poland
Iconomi	ICN	Ethereum	Asset investment management	Slovenia
iExec	RLC	Ethereum	Distributed computing	France
Lunyr	LUN	Ethereum	Knowledge base	USA
MaidSafeCoin	MAID	Omni	Distributed storage	Scotland
StorjcoinX	SJCX	Counterparty	Distributed storage	USA
Synereo	AMP	Omni	Social networking	Israel
Tether	USDT	Omni	Mainly a currency	China
vSlice	VSL	Ethereum	Gaming token	USA
Wings	WINGS	Ethereum	Autonomous organizations	Russia

I advise you to go explore each asset in more depth. The main features that I listed are usually just a part of what makes each one unique. This simple breakdown does not do these assets justice.

For more information about any of these assets, they are all listed near the top of https://coinmarketcap.com/assets/ (currently the best website to start your research for any cryptocurrency or asset!)
