OKCash is an open-source digital currency that enables its users to make transactions instantly. It boasts of a confirmation rate higher than most around.[1][2]

History

OKCash started out in 2014 as Pimpcash and was rebranded in February 2015 to OKCash by the lead developer who calls himself OKToshi.

He has a lot of experience in software development, he created ROKOS, a Linux-based OS for IoT devices like Raspberry Pi, which, incidentally, comes with a built-in wallet for OKCash as well as some other cryptocurrencies.

OKCash prides on being open-source and completely decentralized, and absolutely anyone can contribute to the OKCash code. It has a huge community of creative developers meeting together to help develop the currency.

OKCash was one of the earlier coins to use the Proof-of-stake technology, which requires much less energy to mine than Proof-of-work coins.

During the first 15 days after its launch, it was based on a Proof-of-work system, and the mining lasted for this period without halving, so it was fair for all miners, even if they started mining late. It became fully Proof-of-Stake after this period, fulfilling its goal of hybrid initial distribution.

Like , OKCash coins (OK) can be mined, but unlike Bitcoin, OKCash is based on the consensus system.

The circulating supply of OKCash is about 74.088 million OK coins, less than 75 % of the total 105 million coins. It has a market cap of 4.94 million USD with an individual price of about $ 0.0666 USD, as of July 2018.[3][4]
