Bitcoin Forum

Its now a trend, ironically Ebtc started it all and now everyone is following. What do you think of this? Such an uneceessary thing to do, but can anyone say no to free money? No Im not promoting these coins they can all be scams for all I know...but if you do want some, the airdrop's are free in the Announcement sections.

I said yesterday on one of the eLTC forums that is the dawn of a new type of crypto currency. And it will be. eBTC started it. There are now 2 eLTC tokens offering airdrops! And now I have just heard about eDash. Expect eNeo, eNEM, eRipple to follow in the next 4 weeks
 Die hards fans of the originals of these coins will hate them. Die hard fans of eBTC will hate these others and dismiss them as copycats. I don't think the eCurrencies will ever overtake the originals or take away volume from them. Expect short term hype. Right now eCurrencies are the hot new fad but interest in them will die off. Also expect eBitcoinCash and eBitcoinGold!

Most of these airdrop altcoins, if the airdrop is done just by filling the form, usually don't last very long. People are not involved much, community is not created and everybody just dumps it as soon as it hits exchanges.

I agree with the both of you. I mean look at what happened with EBTC the price went from .02 to .75 cents and dropped half way over night because of all these other E coins being created. Smart move if you sold last night.

All right, this is completely new to me. What exactly are these e-cryptos? The e shouldn't stand for electronic, since that would be pretty redundant for crypto. I've actually signed up for a couple of airdrops this week but so far wasn't particularly interested in all of these now that they are cropping up. I'd say they were just the same group of people pumping out tokens for every single coin in existence. Go ahead and prove me wrong, though. Would love for my two airdrops to amount to something:)

It really shows that pure speculation still forms a large part of the cryptocurrency market at the moment. Is this good for long term growth, probably not. Eventually, investment will come to value path.

because eBtc selection ann becomes visible like selection joke, eCoin is shit.
Do not waste your time, ignore it.
be careful don't make ann selection look useless in the eyes of the theymos because we dont know the future there will be rules what will he make

Seems like eBitcoin Cash is already here  :D https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2244400.0

Surely they will not sustain in the market for long time because of their airdrops. The airdrops are very vulnerable to situation like price dumping when these coins are listed in the exchanger. There are very less chances of all these coins getting a good response when they come to market because it's such waste of distributing your money from the real coins to these all new fake-o-lists bug list. I mean why would I have take out my money from the ethereum or may be from bitcoin to invest into them if I don't have enough fiat. Would anyone do that ? No I don't think so they will get any good response.

It's just pump and dump.

It's just a bit sad, especially since they are all promoted on bitcointalk.
Like how can they make an eNeo when they can't add the NEO value to it? eNeo has no use, just like all the other E coins.
People don't care, the owners just hope to get a quit profit by keeping 5%. They don't care it it will be dumped since making one costs only a few k at max and dumping 5% would easily cover this up.

eBTC has a community now and is doing well and has a clear direction.

I think the rest are money making dumps

all i can say about it is:   :|

 

This hilariousandco qoute is very clear all that crap e coin must be delete / banned on altcoin announcement because that is just shit and have no value.

This news cryptocurrency is interesting, may be scam or some cash.

The rate of e-coins showing up within seconds is alarming, someone need to put a stop to this scam, because it certain some people will still put there money in this,
 If anyone was to survive out of this coin, it certainly will be ebtc

I do fear for new investors, who see a huge % increase in a short span and jump in only left to be holding bags. Not good!

Haven't joined any airdrops except byteball till now and I don't think holding any of this coin is worthy. They might get dumped on first day of listing on the other hand byteball like coin which offers something different while distributing coin for free can be worth to hold for future.

Trends like these have always occured here. Just look back at the wave of country coins, anonymous coins, pot coins and so on. One succesfull project launches a whole lot of copycats. In a few days/weeks this will be forgotten. And it will be interesting to see if some of the coins, specially eBTC, can survive and gain value long term. I think that is quite likely.

I'm ready to shit on them, all of these are shitcoins, except maybe eBTC.

These new e-tokens have gotta be the shittiest of  the bunch.

Edit: I´m still getting some though :P

Today is e-token day , a lots of  coin  on top 10 coinmarketcap has been convert to token with e-xxxxx

I know why they do it , because e-btc  pump and it is free airdrop , now airdrop is hot trend .

Ebtc just is token build ethereum no special , after pump   is  dump .

Thats not the reason the price of ebtc crashed.  It crashed because of an issue with the code was discovered.

Im applying for all the "e" coins.  No harm right?

Yes, a bug with the eBTC code was discovered and is quickly being addressed and fixed by the developers.


As you say, no harm, its e-Christmas after all.

Can the amount given in airdrops be traded> Many exchanges have a minimum exchange limit.

Thats it TucoRamirez! e-Christmas!! We all know the vast majority probably wont amount to much in the medium term but its fun, its today and its giving us all a chuckle, so thats got to be a good thing :)

Definitely eBTC started the trend, in the following month we will see at least 1000 of copy shitcoins..  ::)

If, you will make some free money with it, take it!  ;D Let the fools buy your coin  :P

Since it is free it is no sin, those buying and holding are the ones I fear for most because these new e series of tokens will not end well, why do I need ethereum of anything

I'm honestly waiting for eethereum to come out soon, imagine Ethereum on the Ethereum blockchain! Because why the hell not?

Thats just the new trend,  eEVERYCRYPTO

Yeah, this total "greater fools" territory. I finally read through the eBTC announcement and it's pretty scammy. The entire OP is basically stating that 1) eBTC is a copy/paste ERC20 token that has no similarities to BTC besides the name and token supply, and 2) Ethereum is better than Bitcoin because faster block time, better scaling, better privacy, faster governance and smart contract capability.

Too bad I missed the airdrop, pretty massive pump-and-dump. But I feel bad for the new crop of newbies in these times. There are so many more projects, and most of them are much scammier than when I got into the Bitcoin/altcoin scene in 2013.

Aaaaaand it's been made, with over 200 replies already, and I'm applying for it. Fuck I really feel like I need to take a shower.

I did not see any of the coins listed in the airdropalert.com

Oh, my God, why is everyone so excited? It's just tokens on the Ethereum with the name of the top cryptocurrencies. It is not a replacement and not even a copy of the famous cryptocurrency - is rubbish.

These are just fashions which come and go. Years ago there was the fashion of cute-animal-coins, following dogecoin. They went all extinct, except doge.

I'm still trying to figure out what to think of this phenomenon. Air dropping isn't new but wit all those e-coins popping up everywhere it has become quite a trend. If they will succeed or not is completely up to the market.

and here we go, the first FAIL!

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2243403.msg22688499#msg22688499


as in: how to not write a contract
they didn't even think to a function to send tokens to a bulk list of addresses

Well, edash i can remove from my custom tokens....!

If I understand it correctly; it's like  bccshit created another one which is ebccshit? Please somebody stop them :(

Certainly we don't need any of these e-coins..i mean i don't see any real utility coming from them.
It's just a fud for fast profits most of all.
But i won't be surprised to see one of them rising in the next months and sitting on a good point value for a long term.
There's only one thing i have learned after months in crypto : everything is possible. ;D

This is what I like on this forum, learning new things. :) to be honest I haven't heard this until today. But if these alts are just free and from airdrop, I don't think community will accept this. Anyway, I got curious about this and will make further research. Free money? For few dollars, not sure if it will worth our time.

i see the E cryptos wants to bring something new for investor and for people and now many of dev is trying to create the coins. but if the dev don't have a good plan and a good team then its no use. the coins will not survive in the crypto currency world and only reach temporary high price and then will drop. i see euphoria among us with this E cryptos and i don't know what will happen later and if there isn't utility or value from the coins then we don't need to follow the journey.

Put an "E" in front of anything turns it into gold. 

This dark, that dark, z-this or z-that and now e-this or e-that

Too many copies but if it helps generate more interest in cryptos why not

all this e coins coming all at once and all at the same time
dont you think it seems questionable
all this coins are created with out effort and just copy paste all the way ,
this coins are shits and scams
be cautious

I think could also be some attempt to advertise their bitcoin. If they want to invite local traders, then would really have to spend especially is they want to let even in far flung areas would want to know their services. If ebtc started it, others coins might have noticed how it became successful for gathering supporters. It is in the community if they would want to get it or not at their own risk but if it is free, who wouldnt want it?

Guys

I am also not convinced whether all the e coins will work although it is too early to measure the success of ebtc as it is hardly a week but if the intentions of the developer are good then it should be worth the time spending on this airdrops. As such it is free for all of us just spending our time in registration of them. No harm as per me

As long as the idea is unique, differs from the other similar projects and provides a decent framework to its users, I'm fine with the projects pushing for improvement. With the current situation, it looks like everyone just wants free money and are blindly writing new projects without any practical implementations possible.

From what I can see a couple of them are projects that the devs are taking somewhat seriously, like ELTcoin and  eBTC.  But others are just plain shitcoins through and through like eIOTA(not possible), eDash, eMonero, eZAC, eETH they just don't even make sense. With eBTC the dev hasn't dumped all his tokens despite the massive drop, and addressed the serious code issue in an upfront way.  Now they just need a viable fix.

All ready airdrop ELTC done exchange etherdelta but no add

The eLTC airdrop whitelisting seems to have been finished already.

Anyways this to me seems like completely unnecessary new coins that aren't offering anything more to the table. Yes, transacting bitcoin, litecoin or whatever on the ethereum network may be a good idea, but what's the point when you let the price of these coins fluctuate? They just become a useless shitcoin.

Plus, is it really a good idea to integrate bitcoin into the ETH network? I really, strongly, doubt it. Smart contracts right now are only mainly used for ICOs still.

it is funny to see this topic here today because earlier today i learned that there has been 667 forks of bitcoin to this day 3 of which has been in this month!

about 300 or so of these have been forked from Litecoin project.

i also checked and only 5 have been forked from Ripple.

what this means is that at some point people figured out that forking an open source project is a piece of cake so they started doing that. out of these 667 forks, most of them are below 100 satoshi and many are even dead now.
the names never mattered, the functionality and devs behind the project matter.

Actually it is not funny anymore..those Eshits are just way too obvious to scam people and make money out of thin air. I think there is just two that is actually okay, the ebtc..which can really solve the hardfork issues..and the other one the original eLTC (now eLtcoin)..

Just take a look for example eXMR..the way monero is built is for privatization, almost untraceable. These eXMR is shit.

How does eBTC possibly "solve the hardfork issues?" Bitcoin's Segwit2x hard fork issue? How does an ERC20 token shitcoin solve that? A supermajority of miners are still signalling support for the NYA, and no services seem to be backing down either. Not seeing how some irrelevant ETH token matters there.

And there's like four eLTC tokens going around... this is the problem with ERC20 tokens. They make it too easy to copy/paste shitcoins. People are scrawling $100 on napkins and calling them $100 bills.

Those "eCryptos" as they appeared they will dissappear even quicker. My advice, just skip them...

I doubt any of those airdrop threads will actually distribute some token, and if they do I definetly doubt that they will appear on any exchange.

ebtc WAS ok. now everything is going crazy.

Only the first one is valuable. The followers without any innovation mean nothing.

e(token) is trend , but , today i think it is over

trend is stake  , bitcoin stake , litecoin stake ..... maybe have a lot of stake will born next month .

So far only EBTC is the one to invest in. Community is growing and devs are working tirelessly.

Will be worth some money in a few months.

There are a lot of coin with the prefix E for valuable types, Does anyone know why?

Really? :D :D
Whats the value of the token? You can only hold it or give to somebody, thats all, worthless..

The value of token needs to be banned by the bitcointalk moderator caused by all of them are violating the rules of bitcointalk. I believe just only the idiot person that still buy the token even the developers can't read and follow the rules in this forum. So, what's next? The thread already deleted by the moderators.

Glad to see all of these shit tokens already disappeared from the bitcointalk. Crap coin will worth nothing.

in few days to many e-token airdrop because ebtc value increased high because airdrop.
i don't want to invest on e-token because they just following trend and have no future.  :-\

ebtc started the fad! But to the token dev He believes his token can solve real problem facing crypto currency today especially bitcoin. These problem are; but not limited to high fee, transaction time, hard folk. All these aforementions are growing problem for crypto-currency, ebtc believes it could tokenized the problem and make them all go away. Will it?

eBTK is like a grandfather, at the core of the crypto currency, here they are, shitcoins, what's next? there will be all 10,000 Ecoins!

All these airdrops and etokens could entice newbies to actually buy some scam tokens and disillusion them from cryptos.

I saw so many scam token with the prefix E,  while price ebtc rising up  +700%  everyone want it  ,  a lots of dev make  shit token , and we have mod  on bitcointalk has deleted  so many scam  topics ,

Today , everything is fine , sometimes i access bitcointalk with   a little hard, and ebtc falling down $0.01 , i think ebtc  just a normal token , no special.

I think the prefix E because it's both Ethereum token and same Ebtc(you're sure know about it). People to easily create & deploy smart contracts in a few clicks, after wait dump and pumb.

Let see what the future holds for this eTokens now!  :P

Well someone pays someone to make a new eCoin.
Then make an airdrop, giving let's say 80% of the coins, 20% they keep for themselves.
When airdrop is started and eCoin is on EtheDelta, then they (anyone who owns the coin) and you (airdrop participant) start to make money.
They release the coin and sell fast their 20% (exchange for ethereum on EtheDelta) and you exchange them too.
From nothing to something.
That's the basic idea of this madness, there are some good tokens too I think.

It's actually sad to see this.
For crypto world would be no harm though. This is just a small and short burst of something that happens in many spheres of life in the history of mankind...and will happen in future somewhere.

They are interesting to find the fast money through doing the airdrop, But they are not remember about the truth if that will will never work for the second. Too many unknown developer or even scammer already made shit token like that.

must of those airdrop coin are worst than shit, but i bet you must ICOs are worst! in some cases you loos your investment to some shit ICOs,  project devs will promise heaven and earth with dead roadmap and whitepaper just to get to investors attention and after investing your money on their project you start seeing loopholes.

airdrop is free coin/free money even if some of them are worst than shit, they are worst more better than ICO projects.

airdrop project gain mass adoption compare to ICOs, given it more community support.

The thing is that people are hyping so much about it, without any significant reason.

There has actually been people that are trying to make eETH, it does not make sense at all to produce a ethereum counterpart for itself, nor does it make sense to have an ERC20 token for every single coin there is on the market.

as i understand the alphabet [e] stands for Ethereum, like the eBTC which means [bitcoin on ethereum network] eLTC [litecoin on the ethereum network] so creating an eETH is totally out of the box, no dev in his right sense will think of creating eETH 

Yes, I don't see any potential value in it because we don't know who is developing those coin in the background. They are creating to get awareness about these E cryptos but I think they don't have future like original coins.

I'm sure it's all a scam, since ebtc appears and many follow it, I think we should not follow the airdrop without knowing the project, a lot of scammers at the moment, everyone should be careful

Thanks for correcting me on this, I was unaware of that fact.

One thing is for sure BTC is not a scam many bankers, institutional investors and gold enthuasiat keep saying that Bitcoin is nothing but a ponzi scheme but look at it now. It has grown and been adopted by merchants and average joes not all altcoins and ICO's are scam they're just having a hard time proving their worth compared to the top main crypto currency, you just have to research the altcoin or new token when investing you'll be fine.

My fav hands down was the momentary madness and humour that was the esausage token. Long live the sausage!

HI GOOD CRONSI
