Bitcoin Forum

Hello! Good day to you guys! I have a question and its about the siblings of bitcoin because i have really notice that satoshi is one of his siblings i think. but still i am not really 100% sure that's why i'm asking you this question "Does bitcoin have any siblings?" i am just new in this bitcoin thing and i want to find some siblings in bitcoin before bitcoin wasn't created and who's the first in the internet as a payment? 

Satoshi is not sibling to bitcoin.It is a  10,000,0000 th fraction of bitcoin just like a cent is the 100th part of a dollar

inventor and creator of bitcoin is satoshi. while this time I am sure that bitcoin is ours all. bitcoin is not owned only by certain people. bitcoin is have everyone using bitcoin.

Siblings? Do you mean like some other cryptocurrency that is equal to Bitcoin? No, I wouldn't say. But there are other cryptocurrencies, more then 600 of them but none of them isn't so successful and popular like Bitcoin. At the moment ETH is maybe one the closest to Bitcoin, not on the value but it looks prosperous.

You seem really new brother, sibilings of bitcoin really sound funny.  ;D
But if you asking about the first payment method, it is hard to tell any particular payment gateway but before bitcoin there are many payment processor who were in operation like liberty reserve, paypal etc and many are there still working as payment gateway.

But bitcoin is far more than just payment processor and it is decentralized platform and not controlled by any company like other gateways. So bitcoin is first of its kind of payment system as well as it is the first crypto currency.

Agree! :D Cryptocurrencies is one of the siblings of bitcoin but unlike bitcoin altcoins are low in price unlike bitcoin that is really high! Altcoins is one of the siblings of bitcoins because they are also digital currencies and they are all the same in virtual and also you can change it into usd or other fiat

OP is not clear whether he is asking about bitcoins siblings like some other cryptocurrencies or if the OP is asking about satoshi's (Owner/creator of bitcoins) siblings. If you are asking about bitcoins sibling then yes there are many of them about satoshi i cannot say anything because that's a personal question TBH.

Satoshi is not another kind of currency that is related to Bitcoin, as it is only one kind of currency. Think of Satoshi as a Cent to a dollar. It is a decimal worth of Bitcoin in which you can own Bitcoin not only by whole numbers but also in decimal value, because even the decimal value is greater than other currencies. Also satoshi is meant to look like that way because of faucets, in which they give low amount of bitcoin at the same time look attractive to claimers.

Well I think you know that there is something called Altcoins, which can be considered to be the siblings of bitcoin.

Satoshi is the founder of bitcoin/blockchain technology. They are not siblings of bitcoin. Also it is used to denote the smallest possible fraction of bitcoin  that is capable of transacting.

Bitcoin does not have any siblings mate, i know you are trying to ask if what was the first coin before bitcoin which was used how it is being used but i think there wasn't any existence of crypto currencies before bitcoin in the world.

Siblings? Well, it's a little bit weird to use that word.
There used to be a fairly known cryptocurrency (CMIIW) named Stellar, but it was maybe 3 years ago when the first time I know Bitcoin cuz it's not that famous now. But I guess you are talking about altcoin (which stands for "alternative coin"), but because you said it's the thing before Bitcoin was created then it can't be altcoin. I don't really know another cyrptocurrency before Bitcoin, because Bitcoin is just like the pioneer of cryptocurrency so it's hard to know the thing before it.

98 activity, that means you've been posting here for 3 months but you still don't know the basics. Anyway, satoshi is a unit of bitcoin. It's the smallest unit of bitcoin. 1 satoshi is  0.00000001BTC. 'Satoshi' is also the name of the founder of bitcoin.

I guess I wouldn't call it siblings but offspring of bitcoins, they are the altcoins. Without bitcoins, I don't think altcoins would even be there by now. But I guess eventually somebody will come up into thinking of a concept the same as bitcoin's.

Its not? ohh.. now i know thank you so much! so its really like a centavo in the real world? and the 1 BTC is like a dollar? i didn't even notice that until now because i really thought that satoshi is one of the siblings of bitcoin but still i need to find the siblings of bitcoin if you can tell me how did the creator manage to create bitcoin there is a mother to that or an sibling of bitcoin all have a main creation but still if bitcoin don't have any siblings or a main creation then it would be a amazing creation and unique to me for it is the main to it and no relatives in bitcoin it's really hard to make something like that its not fake but from the looks of it.. its hard to believe that in the real world we have dollar and the internet world we have bitcoin... >.<

Yes! i have 98 activities but i didn't dig deeper in bitcoin because i asked my friend he didn't even answered me then i came up to this topic so that someone will answer my question. so you're saying that bitcoin will surely die? then the old bitcoin was altcoins? how did they came up with that great idea? when i was a newbie i didn't believe in such kind of things earn money from the internet called bitcoin so i tried this bitcointalk and earning money so it really is amazing that real money you can make but i was thinking that how did they create this it seems like fake but it really is true..

You could argue that some other companies such as egold or whatever are precursors, or siblings as you seem to want to call them. More "modern" siblings of Bitcoin could be altcoins and so that you see traded, like Ethereum, Litecoin (If that's still around), Peercoin, or whatever else.

It is a 100,000,000th fraction of bitcoin. sorry for correction Sharma :)
title asks about bitcoin's siblings.
i can say bitcoin is one of the first of its kind, so it is more like a grandfather of e-coin family.
there was many attempts before bitcoin but it is the most successful at the present.
it may 'die' later but it can evolve and continue for long.
bitcoin as mass media wrote many times already died 100+ times , it is still alive
like a super cat with extended lifes ..

What do you mean by "Siblings"? This is the definition of a Sibling, " each of two or more children or offspring having one or both parents in

common; a brother or sister. Synonyms: brother or sister; brothers and/or sisters / "the birth of a sibling is a stressful event in the life of a

child" ... The closest thing resembling a sibling in Bitcoin would be a Alt Coin. { There are more than 800+ Alt coins and it's growing and

dying daily. }  ::)

That's odd. I was following your post perfectly clear till I reached the third sentence. FWIW, upon reading the title of this thread, I'm now curious if Twitter, Facebook, Google and Linkedin have siblings.

EDIT: I just realized that the chair I'm setting in has three siblings, all four virtually identical.

EDIT: Just took a piss and noticed that my left nut has a sibling also.

EDIT: OMFG! My right hand has a sibling. I wonder if I can switch hands and gain a stroke.

EDIT: Fuck me! My right hand's sibling is a retard causing me to lose 17 strokes.

I think quite properly seek Bitcoin brothers and sisters. Maybe you mean cryptocurrency other alternative? Yes, they are. And the method of their creation is similar to the method of creating Bitcoins

If Bitcoin were to have siblings,then it going to be all the altcoin put together. Though even if you put all the altcoin together,their collective value is not more 20% of the value bof bitcoin. Hence, bitcoin cannot be called sibling to them but rather a mother to all altcoins.

You must be thinking of Satoshi's  younger sister Shetoshi
