There are so many cryptos that we can't use in the real world. Gulden (NLG) is one of the very few with true use cases!

in #cryptocurrency8 years ago

With over 1000 different cryptocurrencies and a huge number of them not having true use cases of being able to buy goods and/or services with them we can surely speak of an immature space and it's not even weird to say that these cryptos almost have the same value as Monopoly money has.

There are real good examples of cryptocurrencies that can be used to buy goods and/or services with them (we all know Bitcoin, Dash, Monero etc.) but most of all cryptos listed on coinmarketcap really have no value if you look at it from that perspective.

There are some 'smaller' and not well known cryptocurrencies out there that are making a true difference though. Gulden (NLG) is definitely one of them. Primarily focused on the market in The Netherlands, but who's to say that Gulden will not be used in other countries as well in the future? The Gulden team are working hard to have businesses and merchants in The Netherlands accept the currency and the list keeps growing and growing. This is why I really like Gulden!

Gulden is well known for bringing the original Dutch currency back in a digital form. Many many Dutch people never liked the Euro and still don't and ever since its introduction they always wanted the Gulden back. Imagine a cryptocurrency space in The Netherlands where more and more Dutch people get to know about Gulden and see more and more places where they can buy things with Guldens. Who is to say that Gulden will not become huge in a year from now if all of a sudden 50% or 60% of the population have a stake in Gulden?

People who don't like Gulden will always say that its well known for being just a "Bitcoin clone" and not introducing anything new... Well, that may be the case but the best tech doesn't always win. I'm not saying that Gulden doesn't have good tech, the development team are doing a good job, for sure there are cryptos out there that have better tech. But in the end it's all about adoption and real life usage. Gulden has it already where many others have none and for Gulden it will only grow and grow. In September alone they've added over 10 new businesses/merchants to the list of places where we can use Guldens:

We keep hearing and reading more and more about Gulden in the media which also is good news. So kudos to the team and to everyone who don't live in The Netherlands: Keep your eye out for this one! There is no doubt in my mind that there is huge potential here.

The nostalgia level is strong with this one!

Thanks for dropping by again!

You actually piqued my interest with this post...

You're the second one in two days I hear about this and - as a fellow Dutchman - there sure is some nostalgia in play here.

Are you already invested in this crypto?

Yes I am. Over several months now.

There are rumors that Gulden is in contact with Coolblue... now imagine what would happen if Coolblue starts to accept Gulden ;)

cool! that is definitely interesting...
where can I buy this coin? Litebit?

Cheers!

I think so but I believe you’ll be better of buying it straight through their own wallet app (on any device). ;)

Works really well.

right, guess I need yet another wallet then. bedankt voor de info!

I love the whole concept of the Gulden. I will be following it for the coming period of time - looking forward to any updates and to see it grow. Might buy some eventually!

Better buy some while prices are low ;)
