As these technologies and organizations mature, their real-world use cases will be made manifest, reducing some speculative elements of the market to ground it in the actual performance, utility, form and function of the next-generation of the internet.

NIce I've got some on stake cube

I dont know, But I think that this will not end well.

In short, Stipend is a blockchain based freelance platform. You can read more on their website (https://stipend.me) as I am just going to focus on why this is a solid pick.

STIPEND CRYPTOCURRENCY
SPD is a PoW/PoS coin that uses the C11 hashing algorithm. Its genesis date was February 10th, 2018. Stipend’s total supply is 7,899,489 coins. The Reddit community for Stipend is /r/stipend and the currency’s Github account can be viewed here. Stipend’s official website is stipend.me. Stipend’s official Twitter account is @StipendOff.


Reason #1: Experienced and active team

The team is one the most important factors when evaluating any new masternode coin. Stipend satisfies all my requirements:

1) Have worked on other crypto projects in the past.

2) Are actively engaged with the community and approachable.

3) Have revealed themselves to the public. This means that the project is important enough to them to risk getting doxxed and harassed by the low-lifes that squirm the depths of the crypto world.



Reason #2: Track record of crushing roadmap goals

It is obvious this team is working hard because of how quickly they are tackling items in their roadmap. In just a month we have seen them expedite team reveal due to popular demand, get listed on an exchange and CoinMarketCap, release a demo of the platform, whitepaper, wallet updates, and more.

In addition to this, they are also keeping themselves accountable for progress made every single week:  they post a weekly blog where they list the items each team member has worked on.



Reason #3: Quality product & content

I found it refreshing to see some professionalism for a change. The videos, demo (https://demo.stipend.me) and other content they deliver are all consistently high quality. They have released a demo environment of the platform you can play around with prior to the Alpha release.

You might not think this is a big deal, but how many coins out there are valued at $50M+ and have nothing to show?

Stipend want to create a platform that will be loved by freelancers and clients, easy to use, acessible, with really low fees and almost instant transactions.

Stipend aims to be an ultimate solution for decentralized jobs marketplace. We want to create a platform which both the freelancers and the clients will love, with low fees, instant payments and never seen before rewarding scheme that rewards the top users.

Many community members have been claiming lately that altcoins are going to die or at least that 90% of altcoins are doomed.
I tend to agree in parts with them that there are many coins and tokens that are pointless and won't survive. Another cathegory of this kind of cryptos are the altcoinss with solid foundations but won't manage to fight with their competitors as naturally there are numerous projects with same visions. But if you trust the project you invested in, there is no reason to change your mind just because someone says many altcoins won't succeed.
Please, Do your research and trust only your own judgement, because many ALTCOINS ARE HERE TO STAY!

What is Stipend ?  https://stipend.me

Stipend aims to be an ultimate solution for decentralized jobs marketplace. We want to create a platform which both the freelancers and the clients will love, with low fees, instant payments and never seen before rewarding scheme that rewards the top users.

SPD believe that a decentralized, blockchain-based platform will be better and a more future-proof replacement for such platforms. Because Stipend’s platform relies on the blockchain – all transactions, ratings and history will be permanently engraved into the blockchain which will further increase the openness and transparency in this market.

There are many other positive and interesting things in the project, Let's go further on the SPD Cryptocurrency.
And then, together we will watch how this project has been developing.

Stipend advances the vision and promise of a decentralized platform for freelancers
Stipend goes by the ticker SPD, a POS/Masternode coin with 19,340,594 SPD coin total supply.

Algo (POW/POS): C11 / Sha-256d
blocktime: 1.5 min
block reward (POW/POS): 15 SPD / 35 SPD
total supply: 19,340,594 SPD
Difficulty retargeting: every block
P2P port: 46978
RPC port: 46979

Masternode Collateral: 5,000 SPD
1st block premine: 2.45% (475,000 SPD)
Net premine: 2.07% (400,000 SPD)

Putting it quite simple:

PROs:

Low supply, not in so many exchanges yet so lots of people don't know about it, project looks solid with a demo and beta schedule to be release soon, believe it's undervaluated and could appreciate in the upcoming months.
As far as I know still not possible to share masternodes in services like staking lab but small investors can stake on desktop wallet.

Stipend’s goal is to introduce the concept of the blockchain to the already booming freelance market.
On STIPEND, everyone can offer their services to everyone.
You are a teacher, a singer or something similar, and you have something to offer to the world ? Well, probably you would love Stipend.
At the same time you need some help, or maybe you are organizing a concert but you need a good singer to replace the sick one? No problem, go on Stipend, see all the offers and choose the best one that fits you.
No bureaucracy, no restrictions, really fast.. and the platform is decentralized.



Stipend will therefore be a all-in-one platform for all kind of task added during project
lifetime. Instant payment as rewards, incentivized workers with coin reward schema
throughout the platform. Teams will be able to easily and efficiently disperse payments to
contributors who have fulfilled the requirements of any task using the coin they desire. Those
using SPD will have no fees charged, while using any other coin supported to pay the job will
be charged a small fee to be paid by the buyer. A verification process and reputation system
will be built in to verify that each task was successfully completed before payment is
dispersed, known as the “pre-user rating”.


After serious consideration of the inherent flaws of most platforms currently operating in the market such as their excessively high fees comes the vision of Stipend

Our vision for a next generation freelancing platform that leverages the unique, powerful features of blockchain technology. We wish to create an expansive environment beneficial to both freelancers and employers through low fees, near-instant payments, and a unique reward scheme that explicitly incentivizes the highest performers — all without the exorbitant fees and hidden costs of existing alternatives.

The constant FUD and miner battles in bitcoin have made me go look for better or more decentralized options. I've been spending huge amounts of time reading through different varieties of coins and their whitepapers and something is usually always off. This is not the case with dogecoin.

Fast

Decentralized

Easy to use

Cheap

I wish there were more coins like this. This is all in all an excellent coin.
