However, some digital<br \/>\ncurrencies are not intended to be used across the globe. Instead, they<br \/>\nare implemented within a country\u2019s economy in order to help boost the<br \/>\nnation\u2019s finances.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThese national altcoins are designed to take<br \/>\nthe concept of <a href=\"https:\/\/holytransaction.com\/page\/what-is-bitcoin\">bitcoin<\/a>, and use it locally. In most cases, national<br \/>\ncoins are not allowed to be used outside of the country, as their is<br \/>\nfear that the value of such coins will fall. This alternative to using<br \/>\nmoney keeps the government separate&nbsp;from cash, all the while putting<br \/>\npower in the hands of the people.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nHere is our list for the <a href=\"https:\/\/coinreport.net\/top5\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Top 5\">top 5<\/a> national altcoins.<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nNational Altcoins<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n5. Swiftcoin<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nLike the many digital currencies that came before it, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firstnationalbnak.com\/faq\" target=\"_blank\">swiftcoin<\/a>&nbsp;is an electronic form of money. Sending them from point A to point B is as simple as sending an email or attachment file.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nToday, many countries fear the collapse of their <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Financial_crisis_of_2007%E2%80%9308\" target=\"_blank\">financial systems<\/a>, but digital coins such as swiftcoin, look to protect and revamp them.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nLike<br \/>\n most national altcoins, swiftcoin can not be mined off of a<br \/>\ncomputer.&nbsp;Instead, swiftcoins are purchased with cash or bitcoin. They<br \/>\ncan also be earned by selling goods and services using&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oswift.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Oswift.com<\/a>.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe digital currency was created by the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.firstnationalbnak.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">First National BNAK of Swiftcoin<\/a>&nbsp;in<br \/>\n Uruguay, and allows locals to&nbsp;set up accounts, as well as buy and sell<br \/>\ndigital coins like bitcoin and swiftcoin for cash or precious metals.<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n4. Isracoin<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/coinreport.net\/isracoin-digital-currency-israel\/\" target=\"_blank\">Isracoin<\/a><br \/>\n is already one of the world\u2019s most successful national altcoins. The<br \/>\ndigital currency allowed for public mining on March 26th, and was<br \/>\nairdropped to citizens on May 6th.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nIsracoin has already begun its<br \/>\nfour phase process to get more people on board with the digital<br \/>\ncurrency. This well thought out plan&nbsp;will help circulate and introduce<br \/>\nlocals to a new way of spending money.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe coin offers&nbsp;benefits<br \/>\nthat can also be found in bitcoin, such as low interest on deposits and<br \/>\nlow cost transaction fees. With Isracoin, the goal is to disrupt the<br \/>\ncurrent banking system of Israel.<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n3. Spaincoin<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/spaincoin.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\">Spaincoin<\/a><br \/>\n is ideal for Spaniards as it allows them to break free from the<br \/>\nshackles of the government. It was launched on March 12th, just a few<br \/>\ndays before Isracoin.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nWith Spaincoin, Spain is the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.coindesk.com\/coindesk-guide-worlds-national-altcoins\/\" target=\"_blank\">biggest country<\/a><br \/>\n to have its own national digital currency, with a population of over 46<br \/>\n million people. Spain\u2019s economy has been in a rough spot for the past<br \/>\ncouple of years, and with Spaincoin, there is a good chance that there<br \/>\nwill be brighter days for the country.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe first 50,000 recipients<br \/>\n of the coin will get 100 SPA each, and then the next 50,000 people will<br \/>\n get 50 SPA each. This will allow for a more balanced distribution.<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n2. Scotcoin<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/coinreport.net\/scotland-scotcoin-currency-bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Scotcoin\">Scotland\u2019s Scotcoin<\/a>,&nbsp;not<br \/>\n only allow people a chance to establish a new financial structure, but<br \/>\nalso helps Scots gain independence from Britain and the pound.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe risks that come from traditional markets will no longer be an issue with the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/scotcoin\">Scotcoin<\/a>.<br \/>\n The new coin works as a plan B to keep order in the economy in case<br \/>\nthere is a major collapse with its already existing system.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nScottish businesses have already taken a liking towards the new crypto currency, which was created by&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/uk.linkedin.com\/in\/dereknisbet\" target=\"_blank\">Derek Nisbet<\/a>. Nesbit feels even&nbsp;more businesses will get on board with the new digital coin as time goes on. He says:<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<blockquote><p>\n<em>\u201cThis<br \/>\n is a one-shot opportunity for Scotland to truly become an international<br \/>\n powerhouse if we can take back the power of our monetary issuance as<br \/>\ncredit, as opposed to issued debt with interest from privately owned and<br \/>\n operated banking interests and cartels.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nNesbit adds that every adult will get 1,000 coins each, and each business will receive 5,000.<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n1. Auroracoin<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/auroracoin.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Auroracoin<\/a><br \/>\n is based in Iceland, and was sent as a way to save the country\u2019s<br \/>\neconomy. The virtual coin is based on <a href=\"https:\/\/holytransaction.com\/page\/what-is-litecoin\">litecoin<\/a>, and was devised<br \/>\nby&nbsp;Baldur Friggjar Odinsson.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThough Odinsson is not the person\u2019s<br \/>\nreal identity, similar to bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, the coin is a<br \/>\n saving grace to the people of Iceland.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe altcoin has the<br \/>\npotential of getting the people of Iceland out of what seems like an<br \/>\nendless financial rut. Success can\u2019t truly be determined until<br \/>\nAuroracoin has ample time to make an impact on Iceland.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nTo make<br \/>\nthe coin a big success, citizens are going to have to be patient and not<br \/>\n run off selling their coins for cash at the first chance they get.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nThe<br \/>\n world\u2019s economical crisis has put a large cloud over finance, but<br \/>\ndigital coins hope to correct this issue. The planet has changed to<br \/>\nwhere everything is digital. So the obvious solution to correct the<br \/>\neconomy could be to make money go digital as well. Whether national<br \/>\naltcoins or bitcoin, crypto currencies are a potential solution that the<br \/>\n world shouldn\u2019t ignore.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: right;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/shipmanagementinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/World-flags.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"World\"><em>Featured Image<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Open your free digital wallet <a href=\"https:\/\/holytransaction.com\/app#!\/signup\">here<\/a> to store your cryptocurrencies in a safe place.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(CoinReport) Bitcoin has influenced many forms of digital currencies to come out of the gate and make an impression on the world.
