BlockchainTech Demystified. Powered By ExtraCredit.io

Through the worldwide acceptance of crypto currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, blockchain technology has gained immense popularity globally. Although the awareness of most people about block chain technology is limited to crypto currency, it has countless application in a number of industries.It is reported that blockchain engineers at the moment earn $64,000 to $149,000, annually. This relevance of the blockchain technology is hinged on three areas of interest- Confidentiality, decentralization and Security.
Some of the industries that benefit from the potentials of blockchain technology are;
• The banking industry
• Cybersecurity
• Election management
• Supply chain management
• Logistics and the Internet of Things (IoT)
• Public archival

However,blockchain technology firms are having a challenge- extremely limited number of qualified personnel. Firms such as Deloitte and KMPG are having a hard time getting personnel to man their platforms.
Statistics have it that only 20,000 blockchain experts are available. It even gets worse as more companies are adopting blockchain technology and are in search of experts in the field to develop and maintain it.Developing and third world countries the worst hit because, they can really benefit from blockchain technology, but then, the shortage of man power is a serious set-back. It is a worldwide shortage.
Evidently, there is need to train people in this field, but there is, apparently no colleges or institutions where people can receive the training, which is yet due to the shortage. Furthermore, with the evolution and continuous advancement in blockchain technology, those who are already in the field still need to build on their knowledge on a continuous basis.
The need to solve this problem and pave way for blockchain technology to continuously thrive induced the birth of ExtraCredit. https://extracredit.io/

ARCHICOIN

ArchiCoin  is a distributed storage that uses stable cryptography. Instead of centralized servers, the file system is formed by an unlimited number of servers on the Internet. Anyone can provide their disk space to participate in an integrated data storage system. ArchiCoin  stores all data in encrypted form. Access to user files is manifested via private key. No one but the owner can get access to the information downloaded on the network.  ArchiCoin  makes it possible to store, exchange, or monetize structured data safely.  ArchiCoin  is scalable and ready for large data. When you upload a file to the  ArchiCoin  network  , it is divided into sections, these sections are encrypted and sent to a bunch of peers. Nothing stores the entire file, even in encrypted form. The data storage method has obvious advantages compared to storing data on a local server. Servers with data can be hacked,...
