One example of which being <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bitvavo<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which unlike many comparable platforms is designed to be accessible to new and experienced cryptocurrency traders alike. As outlined in their own words:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBitvavo is making digital assets accessible to everyone, by offering transparent fees, a wide range of assets, and an easy-to-use platform. With the ease of use of a broker platform and the low fees of a digital asset exchange, Bitvavo is offering its users the best of both worlds.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result &#8211; is more traders joining the party on a daily basis than ever before, and more cryptocurrencies emerging from various corners of the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You do not have to be a seasoned veteran to be able to name a good handful of top-performing cryptocurrencies. The mere mention of the word is enough to bring the likes of <\/span><b>Bitcoin<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>Ethereum<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>Ripple,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>IOTA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to mind &#8211; the undisputed Kings of the current cryptocurrency scene.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But aside from these household names on the cryptocurrency landscape, there is an extensive and growing list of \u2018alternative\u2019 options available. Some of which could technically represent attractive investment opportunities &#8211; others treading a fine line between questionable and downright hilarious.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this in mind, what follows is a brief overview of just a few of the more eye-opening cryptocurrencies that have hit the market date. This, if nothing else, paints a reassuring picture with regard to how many people are taking a genuine interest in what the future of crypto has to offer:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Odd_Cryptocurrencies_Ever_Launched\"><\/span>Odd Cryptocurrencies Ever Launched<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"KodakCoin\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KodakCoin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An unexpected entry to the space, to say the least, KodakCoin is &#8211; exactly as the name suggests &#8211; the product of the renowned and iconic camera company. While the mention of KodakCoin at CES may have raised quite a few eyebrows, the company was adamant that it was and is 100% serious about launching a successful cryptocurrency. It is yet to enjoy its day in the spotlight but still technically exists, for anyone interested in checking it out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PotCoin\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PotCoin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea behind PotCoin is as simple as it is a genius. Worldwide, the legal cannabis industry continues to be hampered by the fact that most major banks and lenders will not go near it. Nor will major credit and debit card providers &#8211; hence the huge gap lack could be filled by a viable form of cryptocurrency. Not that PotCoin is the first to set its sights on this gap in the market &#8211; the likes of CannabisCoin, KushCoin, Bongger, Ganjacoinpro and many more are also targeting the same spoils.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TrumpCoin\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TrumpCoin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may not have any direct ties or affiliations with the man himself, but TrumpCoin really is <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cryptocurrency of the moment for those who simply cannot get enough of him. The TrumpCoin website makes plenty of promises regarding the purchase and use of TrumpCoin supporting various important projects at home and abroad, such as taking care of veterans, improving infrastructure and of course\u2026border security. Though given Trump\u2019s recent shenanigans since <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">losing the election<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by a landslide, it is becoming increasingly difficult to take <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">anything <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bearing his name or resemblance seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Coinye\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coinye<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clearly not seeing the entertaining side of the whole thing, a team of lawyers representing Kanye West wiped the Coinye off the face of the earth shortly after its arrival in 2014. Again, the Coinye never hit home as the kind of cryptocurrency anybody was going to take seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whoppercoin\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whoppercoin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And what could be more serious than a Russian form of cryptocurrency with which you could only buy Whoppers at Burger King? In an attempt to entice burger addicts across the country, Burger King Russia announced that by saving up \u2018just\u2019 1,700 Whoppercoins, you could claim your very own free Whopper.\u00a0 An interesting <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blockchain-style loyalty system<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which for obvious reasons was not exactly a huge hit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cat_Coins\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cat Coins<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was also clearly intended to be more of a gimmick than a serious cryptocurrency venture, which in this instance sought to capitalize on the Kings and Queens of the Internet &#8211; cats. The popularity of cats in general has led to the introduction of countless cat-cat cryptocurrencies of questionable appeal, including Catcoin, Nyancoin and perhaps most famously of all, Monacoin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Garlicoin\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garlicoin<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last but not least, what better form of cryptocurrency combines a mouth-watering investment opportunity with the world\u2019s universal love for garlic bread? Just when you think you have seen every possible cryptocurrency gimmick on earth, along comes another meme-based contender for the most questionable of all time.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seven of the Oddest Cryptocurrencies Ever Launched &#8211; Online brokers and trading platforms are continually simplifying and streamlining access to limitless trading opportunities for new and experienced traders alike.
