Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency created in 2009 by a person or group of people under the name of Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin was proposed as an alternative to the conventional banking system in the wake of the financial crisis of 2008. Unlike banks, the Bitcoin network is a decentralized anonymous peer-to-peer payment system designed to the way that it is almost impossible for a single entity to gain control over this network.

Qtum (QTUM) is an opensource blockchain platform launched by the Singapore-based team of developers in 2017. The project provides an opportunity to maintain the connection between the virtual machines and the blockchain. Also, Qtum users can create smart contracts and build DApps with the help of the platform. It is important to mention that Qtum is compatible with DApps built on other blockchains.
