Changes in the Internet, with the emergence of cryptocurrencies begin to be felt, especially with the user's experience. A series of new projects are emerging with the purpose of generating benefits for those who perform simple or common operations in the network. The logic of this has to do in that a user that is able to navigate or wind up in the network, with his participation, with his contribution of computing capacity, generates computer data and that data has a cost.

In a previous article, cryptocurrencies were compared as raw material but in computer science. A bit is to the computer what a barrel of oil to hydrocarbons. Being bits protected with cryptograms, new developments begin to attract traffic with an offer to users, making Internet browsing profitable in favor of users.

There are emerging search engines, chat rooms, forums and others that offer users tokens or coins in exchange for their traffic or interaction, in exchange for directing referrals and interacting on these sites. The user not only becomes a consumer of information, data, but the data that he is able to generate offer possibilities of obtaining money, which is exchanged in the digital markets.

These changes in the way in which the Internet is navigated begin to set precedents, to form new professions and trades, to generate new modalities in which the network is used, part of the social and economic turnaround that initiated the arrival of Bitcoin and the technology of the blockchain, this is just the beginning.

Venezuela: Venezuelan merchants are being asked to participate in training courses for the use of petro cryptocurrency, a project of the Venezuelan State that has been classified as a fraud by the rating agencies of initial offers, in addition to not having been able to raise the money that they had proposed in the primary offer because of investor mistrust.

Venezuela: A group of activists campaigns through Twitter, use the account @eatBCH_VE through which they promote donations in bitcoin cash, money that they invest in food aid for Venezuelan families with great difficulties and in extreme poverty, because of the humanitarian crisis that crosses this country, sunk in the worst hyperinflation ever recorded in Latin America.

Argentina: Recently in a conference in which Bitcoin Argentina participated, it was reported that this country, despite being one of the pioneers in the region with the use of cryptocurrencies, barely 0.5% of the population is using bitcoin, Therefore, more efforts are needed in the community, compared to Canada, where 5% are already involved and in the United States, 8%. / 08/10/2018
