Bitcoin Market Journal, the leading website for blockchain investors, has unveiled its Digital Asset Rankings report, rating the top 50 cryptocurrencies using its peer-reviewed Blockchain Investor Scorecard.

“We believe that the days of closed, proprietary, secret rating systems are over. They lead to systemic problems where the entire economy becomes ‘pay to play,’” said Bitcoin Market Journal publisher John Hargrave. “We aim to be radically transparent in our rankings, leading the way for a new generation of investors.”
The Bitcoin Market Journal editorial team reviewed the Top 50 digital assets (by market capitalization, or overall monetary value), using a peer-review process to award each asset a one- to five-star rating. In the spirit of blockchain, the team uses its open-source Blockchain Investor Scorecard for its rankings – not hiding them in “proprietary formulas” or behind a subscriber wall.
