Title: Namecoin has overtaken Peercoin on coinmarketcap
Post by: rbdrbd on November 28, 2013, 03:28:25 PM
Wow, Namecoin and Litecoin are blowing up....definitely looking like a bubble.

Wondering what people are thinking of this recent price action.

Is this due to Litecoin going on Chinese exchanges?

Also, Namecoin may be being manipulated: http://www.reddit.com/r/Namecoin/comments/1rhmwk/namecoin_price_is_rising_because_of_price/

Its been like this quite a few times for the last day or two.

I think that all the new people hearing about Bitcoins means quite a bit of uninformed money is entering the market, and thats whats allowing these pumps and dumps to occur without actually crashing the value of namecoins.
