Belgian Franc (convertible)
BEC is a cryptocurrency that was created in 2014. It is based on the Bitcoin protocol but with a few modifications. The most notable modification is the block size limit, which is 8 MB. This allows for faster transaction times and lower fees. BEC also uses a different proof-of-work algorithm than Bitcoin, called Scrypt.
BEC is not as well-known as Bitcoin, but it has a growing community of supporters. The currency is traded on a few exchanges and can be used to purchase goods and services.
