Title: Oh the humanity!!!
Post by: krusin on June 12, 2013, 04:06:31 AM
I still need almost three hours to post in the free coin threads!!! ARGH! The blocks are only worth a single coin, but they're giving away 25 to the first 1000 posts.

Was this directed at me? I may be a bit dense here, but I can't quote anyone outside the noob forums right now unless someone tells me a secret.

I dabble in a lot of alts, but this giveaway is pretty substantial IMO.

The idea of decentralized currency intrigued me, "mining" peaked my interest, and I'm trying to wrap my head around the sheer number of altcoins.

Mostly it gives me something to do while I'm sitting around at work. ;D

lol, there are a lot of alts that's for sure. I figure some dev is going to "crack the code" so to speak and create the next contender. I hold balances in Argentum, Bitbar, Bitcoin, Digitalcoin, Elacoin, Feathercoin, Flashcoin (Which I regret) Litecoin, Namecoin, Stablecoin and Worldcoin. I am playing the odds that something will be worth it later.
If not, I have learned a ton so far regarding gpus and hashing, that has to be worth something as well.

I'm with krusin; trying to get out of newbie hell, and the fact that I have been dabbling in buying / trading / mining a variety of altcoins as well. I've been trying to hedge my bets by diversifying, with a weighted focus on those that seem more stable or likely.

So far I've bought / traded / mined:
BTC (obviously)
NMC (merged mining after all)
LTC (people call it the silver of digital currency)
FTC (It has had a pretty good run so far)
CNC (because the Chinese run half the world anyway)
WDC (because, well why not)
Bitbar (another well why not)

I don't have any stocks of Argentum, have to look at that one. I'm also thinking of trying to add some high risk bonds to my portfolio if I can get them at the right price. I'm trying to follow a somewhat traditional portfolio risk exposure strategy with low/medium/high risks assets at 60%/30%/10%. Its a little more difficult to figure out risk when it comes altcoins, in fact the the entire crypto-currency thing is a little difficult to gauge. It is probably more realist to say that the risk exposure is medium-low/medium-high/high-high than just low/medium/high, but it all gets normalized anyway.

That's my two cents worth...

BTW - for those interested in altcoins - check out http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency

They have added some neat features recently, like difficulty fluctuation and exchange rate stability.

You rock sir, thank you very much. Now I can get to bed and be somewhat productive at work tomorrow.
Thanks again, IOU1.
