CoinCorner Comments on Coinfloor’s “Bitcoin only” Stance
CoinCorner

CoinCorner’s CEO, Danny Scott, commented:  

  

“It’s been announced today that Coinfloor is delisting its Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) options, in favour of providing “Bitcoin only” services next year. 

 

This is a positive development for the Bitcoin industry as it highlights the lack of demand for altcoins when compared to Bitcoin, reinforcing Bitcoin’s dominance. If the resource and cost expended on maintaining the altcoins doesn’t equal the revenue, then it makes complete business sense to delist.

‘Click And Mortar’: New Path Of B2B Commerce

When digital trading platforms started gaining in prominence and market share, many people believed that brick-and-mortar companies were doomed. That the future belonged solely to digital trade. As with most predictions, the reality was far more complicated and lay somewhere in the middle.

The establishment of giants like Amazon, Alibaba and some smaller platforms has paved a major highway for digital trade, but the future held something more than just a single global warehouse connected to an online store. The future was hybrid.
