Sterlingcoin

Sterlingcoin is a digital currency used to pay for goods or services in daily life both offline and online. It is a decentralized system controlled by an open market and not by a corporation, bank or government. Because of its decentralization everyone who runs the Sterlingcoin wallets shares the public ledger. Sterlingcoin is a completely fair, transparent and a highly secure form of currency for all needs. The price of Sterlingcoin is determined by supply & demand, use, trading and mining.

Transaction history of every Sterlingcoin wallet A limited supply of money would allow for a better economy; where 'better' means 'fairer', more stable and devoid of government intervention. Maintaining the block chain is called mining, and those who do so are rewarded with newly created Sterlingcoin and transaction fees.
