Best Blockchain Companies in 2019

The valuation of a company if as good of a measure of success in the crypto industry as it is in any other. A company’s profit level demonstrates its power in the cryptocurrency sphere. Now, let’s take a look at the list of the best blockchain companies by the end of 2019. 

#10. Canaan Creative 

Canaan Creative

Approximate capital: 2 billion dollars

Canaan Creative ranks second after Bitmain in terms of number of sales of mining equipment. Despite that, and their many years of success, the company’s profit is declining. Still, Canaan has managed to maintain unicorn status: the company was valued at $2-3 billion before the recent IPO where it has attracted $90 million.

In September, Chinese mining equipment manufacturer Canaan Creative introduced the new ASIC miner for Ethereum. According to the documentation, the new Canaan device works according to the Ethash algorithm and surpasses other equipment in terms of W/MHs by 5-7 times.

Approximate capital: 2 billion dollars

Binance is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in terms of trade volume. The company has its own Binance Chain blockchain and the local Binance Coin cryptocurrency. According to CEO Changpeng Zhao, Binance has a market capitalization of about $2 billion.

Just the other day, Binance Bitcoin Exchange has made it possible to directly purchase/sell  cryptocurrencies for eight more fiat currencies.

#8. BitMEX

bitmex

Approximate capital: 3 billion dollars

BitMEX is a cryptocurrency exchange platform which primarily offers futures and perpetual contracts. They allow investors to engage in trade with borrowed funds. In July 2018, the Times business newspaper valued BitMEX at $3.6 billion. However, there are other estimates, according to which the actual value of the company may be closer to a billion dollars. 

Recently, BitMEX, the largest exchange of bitcoin derivatives, has leaked user data. Some users received emails containing the email addresses of other platform clients. It can be assumed that BitMEX employees forgot to put the recipients of the email newsletter in a hidden copy of the letter, which is why the privacy of users was compromised.

We are aware of an email privacy issue impacting our customers. We have identified the root cause and will be in touch with any users affected by the issue. See our blog for details: https://t.co/FNp2Fdyxdn
