Emercoin
Emercoin ( Symbol: EMC) is a cryptocurrency that is in some ways similar to Namecoin and Peercoin. It was launched in December 2013 and announced three days before launch in order to notify miners in advance.
Emercoin employs both proof-of-work (POW) mining and proof-of-stake (POS) minting and uses SHA-256 hashes.
On January 4, 2016 Microsoft entered into a partnership with EmerCoin as part of their Azure Blockchain Service program. EMC is considered to be a leading digital currency and Blockchain platform which focuses on a platform of innovative and scalable enterprise services.
