An ico is in progress that presents an interesting hybridization of a digital coin/token that also provides access to an algorithm for Forex trading based on historical trend data. I like the idea of hybridizing coins and integrating blockchains with other existing and proven marketplaces. I know nothing about foreign exchange trading and don't really want to. What I do know is that AI applied to trading of any type offers a likelihood of a return at least as good as my own guesswork. So I bought some Compcoin. Read the whitepaper https://compcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Compcoin-Token-For-A.I.-Financial-Trading-060817v2-1.pdf. I had some trouble getting the purchase completed because the process was unfamiliar, but the service team took my calls and answered my questions and did some technical magic and we were able to move ahead.
If you are enthusiastic about leveling the playing field and leveraging the blockchain, explore this. It may open your eyes to other potential integrations of blockchain, AI, and prediction markets. One thing I'm intrigued by is how this approach could be applied to sports event forecasting or forecasting commodity futures. We'll see. It is early days -- and interesting times.
