China has released the latest edition of the ranking of state-approved cryptocurrencies, still giving the palm to EOS, slightly raising Bitcoin, and with a surprise in the top three.
In the August ranking, as before, EOS and Ethereum retain their prized first and second places, but the following in the top 5: Nebulas, NEO and Stellar, moved down one position, to 4th, 5th and 6th places, respectively. And all this thanks to the surprise that was 3rd place in the ranking - Komodo. In last month's lists, he was awarded only 9th place. Perhaps, Chinese experts so highly appreciated the new technology using the Delayed Proof of Work (dPoW) protocol, which provides a high degree of anonymity and security of transactions. Komodo itself is a rather ambitious project that intends to form its own full-fledged ecosystem. To achieve this, the platform plans to allow developers to launch their own independent registries and offer original coins (ICO).
Lisk dropped to seventh place, GXChain was in eighth, and Steem was in ninth.
Bitcoin rose sharply in the rankings and finally entered the top ten. It is now in 10th place after spending a month in a lowly 16th place.
In addition, Nuls and Tezos, taking 21st and 28th places, respectively, increasing the total number of cryptocurrencies to 33.
The full ranking for August is as follows:
