Request Network

Augur Reputation
Augur had a good week due to the US Elections, in which over $2 million in Ether was placed in bets on Augur.

Dent has yet again expanded into a new country, adding Ecuador onto their already impressive list of real-world integration. Ecuador adds 4.5 million users and provides an excellent South American economy to their ever expanding integration. Dent is now operating in 37 countries with 121 mobile operators.
