Title: Is 42 *really* gonna be worth 500,000 someday?
Post by: jongameson on January 21, 2014, 07:27:05 PM
ballsy prediction, but 21,000,000 divided by 42 = 500000  :o

I got a better scheme! Listen up

1. Make the POINT1 Coin. There will be a total of only 0.1 P1C
2. 21,000,000/0.1 = 210 million
3. ?? ??
4. Profit

Because it is an unnecessary coin that is purely a gimmick - we have Bitcoin already - and some serious alts - this coin is poor  :(

I know this is sarcasm, but anyway.

You can't say that a coin is worth 210 million (or any other value), if 1 full coin doesn't even exist. It's like if I said that the gold planet is worth a quadrillion dollars if such planet doesn't exist.

Those genious mathematics who make those equations think that an absurd minimal amount of coins make it very valueable...
It will simply not gonna happen.

no. What makes Bitcoin valuable? It is not just that there is something with only 21mio. units. My 21mio. units of shit are worth nothing...

BTC: Now mined 12M, adding approx 1.3M per year (halving every few years)
42: Now mined approx. 1.4 coin, adding approx 31.55 per year (block reward never drops and actually in 16 months there will be more than 42 coins mined in total)

If 42 and BTC will reach equivalence in market cap right now, you'll get about 8.5M BTC/coin (but that really won't happen, just a theory)
In one year, 13.3M BTC vs 32.5 42 will get rate 400K BTC/coin if market caps would be equal. Year after that only 220K

so for rate 500000/btc you'll need to reach equivalence in market cap within about 9 months. Not a chance :)
