The Hungarian developers claim that <a href=\"http:\/\/koronacoin.com\/\">Korona offers<\/a> better security and is cheaper than its competitors.<\/p>\n<p>A recent study by Cambridge Judge Business School confirmed that customers are increasingly adopting new forms of payments for cost efficiency reasons. Further, the study states 86% of surveyed payment companies use Bitcoin as the main payment method for cross-border transactions. However, Bitcoin faces issues in terms of transaction times, scalability, and flexibility to build smart contracts on its system.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, Korona developers believe that there is an enormous global potential for a rapid, second crypto economic boom.<\/p>\n<h2>Korona\u2019s plan<\/h2>\n<p>The Swiss-based company\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legitgambling.com\/cryptocurrency\">crypto currency<\/a> Korona will full comply with European rules and regulations.

Additionally, users will receive supporting services like taxation information support, client protection, commercial guarantees, as well as marketing or even market access support.<\/p>\n<p>The platform shall also provide attempting and marketable goods and services for purchases either online, or in real stores every day. Finally, it shall provide valuable financial benefits in the form of cost and price reductions, and also in the form of rewards after either spending or accepting tokens. These features shall make Korona tokens widely accepted and valuable.<\/p>\n<p>The Korona Coin wallet can be downloaded for Windows, Linux and MacOs. The wallet can be used to receive or spend tokens. Accounts can hold and send Korona Coins, as well as Etherum.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Marc Stiegemeier, Korona\u2019s CEO, said<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBanking as we know it today will eventually evolve into different platforms.
