Yet some crypto watchers have raised red flags over SafeMoon’s unusual structure. It charges a 10% fee to buy tokens and another 10% to sell -- almost unheard of in the digital currency world. Half of these fees are paid to owners as an incentive to keep holding and the other half goes into a liquidity pool controlled by the developers. SafeMoon calls itself a DeFi token, or one that uses decentralized finance to govern functions through software, but it has a chief executive officer and chief operating officer. Critics also worry about the discretionary nature of the “manual” coin burns used to adjust its circulation.
The next phase in the crypto mining process is to compile a list of all transactions, which is subsequently included in a new unconfirmed data block. It avoids “double spending” of any cryptocurrency and keeps a permanent and public record by adding their transaction to the blockchain, once the verification procedure is complete. The record is immutable, which means it can never be changed or corrupted.

Bitcoin had rallied 220% in 4Q 2017 and if history repeats itself, Bitcoin could reach $96,355, which could potentially be this cycle’s top.
Although “smart contracts” represent an important move toward addressing the lack of chargebacks and refunds in cryptocurrencies, it remains to be seen whether they’re enough to solve the problem completely. Still, they’re at least partly responsible for Ethereum’s success.
