Telegram vs. WeChat: Which One Is Better?

Nowadays, WeChat and Telegram are very popular message apps – everyone has heard of them.  They’re both capable of becoming the most popular ones in the whole world, besides Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp and Viber. WeChat can also be used as a payment service, a social network – and that’s not all. A telegram has introduced a token pre-sale in order to release TON – which we believe it’s something more than a blockchain. It’s been said that the Telegraph will offer more services soon, too.

We shall compare WeChat and Telegram to see which one is better.

It all happened when Telegram decides to introduce TON – that’s when the competition started.

What are the features?

You can also pay with WeChat

We’ve already established the fact that WeChat offers more services than Telegram. WeChat is also used for payment services for taxi, shopping, even utilities. It became a very good substitute for cash when it comes to the Chinese market. WeChat is powered by Chinese UnionPay, and this is why the app allows prompt p2p payments.

It’s actually more than that –WeChat is also testing a city service module. It’s meant to become an interface that can use the services of the city faster and in a more convenient way.

You can promote your business on WeChat

You can also use WeChat as an ad network – this is not the case for Telegram. If you have a business, you can promote it on WeChat.

With Telegram, you get encrypted texting

Telegram provides encrypted texting – as it is used as a messenger – and this is something that WeChat does not do.

All in all, we can say that you can use Telegram as a messaging app, while you can use WeChat as an “everything” app.

Dash (DASH) Network Processed About 3 Million Transactions In 24 Hours In The Last Stress Test

Dash (DASH) broke a new record by processing 3,020,238 transactions in 24 hours. The event occurred on Sunday, November 11th, during the Dash network stress test. Thus, Dash blockchain managed to surpass the 2.1 million transactions achieved by Bitcoin Cash (BCH) during its latest stress test.

The stress test, which was intended to measure the transaction capacity of the Dash network, was carried out by the team of developers of the Dash (DASH) wallet, MyDashWallet, with the version 12.3.4 of the blockchain. The group aimed to achieve a maximum of five million processed transactions, but despite not having reached its goal, the results are more than three times the number of transactions processed in the last test conducted in July.

The three million transactions were achieved with an average speed of 1 block every 2 minutes. Among the mined blocks, some reached 2MB, the maximum size stipulated in Dash (DASH) network for each block, and contained more than 10,000 transactions. Given the number of operations in these blocks and the average mining time, it is estimated that the network was able to process between 60 and 80 transactions per second. That is a number that, although positive for Dash (DASH) blockchain, is still far from the 24,000 transactions per second that Visa claims to process.

Dash (DASH) Network Processed About 3 Million Transactions In 24 Hours In The Last Stress Test

Another important aspect is that the Dash network stress test was carried out with an average mining difficulty of 90M, after dropping from the 118M it had reached some eight days ago, according to BitInfoCharts.

It is important to note that the three million transactions were not the limit that those responsible for the test expected to reach. However, with this number of transactions, some blocks reached their maximum size of 2MB.

The 2MB blocks are enabled in the Dash (DASH) network since 2016, but at the moment there are already proposals to increase it. Some proposed to increase the size to 5MB, 8MB and even 10MB. However, studies assure that it is not advisable to exceed 5MB because the profitability of mining could be compromised.
