Guide: PoW vs PoS
PoW vs PoS is the most popular consensus algorithms out there as they are the baseline of the top 2 cryptocurrencies in the world: Ethereum and Bitcoin. Both systems have the same purpose of validating clients’ transactions, nonetheless the process differs in many ways. In the following few paragraphs we will be highlighting the main differences between the two.
Let's start with the PoW algorithm, which is based on exhaustive computer calculations called mining blocks. The reward of the process is received by the one who can solve the block calculation faster, that's why miners compete with each other to be the first to find the solution.
Cryptocurrencies based on PoW tend to be more centralised as the time goes by, as well as more energy efficient. Some of the cryptocurrencies using the PoW method are:

This is a process in which a set of nodes are the ones deciding the stake status of their own cryptocurrencies in order to validate the transaction. Therefore, the main two elements seen by the “staker” is the amount of stake and the duration of the stake, as it can give you a higher probability of getting the role of validator.
Unlike PoW, Proof of Stake chooses the miner depending on their wealth, not on their processing power. Also, Miners in PoS does not get a reward, but collect network fees instead.
Among some digital currencies that chose PoS are: Binance Coin, Neo, Cosmos, Qtum, Algorand, Nano, Ontology and Waves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles.

Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
