What are the exact differences between Bitsend and Bitcore? The question is legitimate since the devs are the same, and BTX is getting a lor more of attention from the markets right now. I own both coins, but i am trying to understand if it makes a sense to keep them both or if there is some redundancy.
BitCore has many parameters similar to Bitcoin. 21 Million coin supply, 10 min block time, same halving interval. The distribution is also different from Bitsend. The airdop is based on stake (compounding interest), and there are also BTX airdropped to BTC holders.
Bitsend is a Masternode coin, which is the primary distinction. This changes the economic model, although both BSD and BTX incentivize people to hold coins rather than sell them for short term profit. 210,000,000 BSD and 180-second block time -- very fast.
Clearly more energy has been put into BitCore lately with the recent BTC airdrop and addition to HitBTC. The pendulum will swing back. Working product, competent developers, not over-hyped. Both of these coins have bright futures. Take the lack of hype as an opportunity.
