Title: Best coin to buy or mine ?
Post by: jerrypages7 on January 31, 2014, 04:34:05 PM
[WARNING ! This is a continuation of the following thread]
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=438512.0;all

(A very interesting thread every Newbie like myself should read: including instructive methods on how to artificialy push up a 0 day coin)


At the opposite of thoses artificialy pushed up here is my own top third "honest coins":
- DigibyteCoin: for the ultra fast wallet, fast enough to buy coffee at Starbucks.
- BitCommoditiz: for the innovation, the first crypto coin claiming being tied to real assets.
- Ron Paul Coin: for the massive buzz, including Ron Paul himself.

Want to hear from you guys. What are the other "honest" coins around here and WHY do you beleive their are ?

As always my-coin-is-the-best guys, please just stay away from this thread...

From http://betacoin.org/about

"It is based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs from Bitcoin in some specifications. Betacoin provides faster transaction confirmations (4 minutes average block generating time)"

Anything more to know ?

-Really fair start with almost month “launch phase” and no premine and absolutely good initial coin parcelling – https://infogr.am/betacoin-difficulty?src=web
-Fast and at the same time reasonable and secure block target time – 4 minute
-Fast and really good scaled network difficulty adjustment parameters – 4 min blocks are really 4 minute blocks and block time intervals in Betacoin network much more stable that Bitcoin
-SHA256 means absolutely hardware compartible
-POW means real decentralisation
-32 mln Betacoin units production and ~0,39%annual after is a really good thing for network in future
-Fast main coin supply – after 6 years the main coin amount will be in circulation, means can be used for real economy needs faster.
-Transaction comments – feature with lots of further implementations and make network more transparent.


Very supportive and strong community which wants to see a legal true decentrallized coin and fast enough in order to perform transactions even within totalitarian regimes.

Also today it was announced, probably, the most advanced blockchain explorer platform on the scene, that makes Betacoin even more transparent . Active development, new features every day.

+1 for the "fair start" however block 16,000 is behind us. Too late for me.

Can somehone sincerely say why this coin is of any interest ?

I do not understand the added value of a coin with a dog on it ! It is just unbeleivable.

This can not be serious, this can not last.

It is just a fun coin that the teenies and their mommies are playing with, it won't last or become the next big thing.  But I will mine and dump the heck out of it if it is profitable.

Yes I can. First - Let me ask you a rhetorical question - Why do any of these coins have value? We are using supercomputers to calculate dummy data that literally serves no purpose, yet for some absurd reason people find value in them. From this perspective society should give this whole idea a huge slap upside the head. Anyways, im done with my soap box rant, so let me provide you my real answer to value.

  • 1. BTC has value and is the safest because it is the standard conversion currency for all crypto-currency. It is the USD of the crypto world, and if something ever happened to make it's value be zero, every single other currency would instantly be 100% worthless.
  • 2. Value of a coin is 100% dependent on market demand of that coin. Why do people want it? This is very text book supply and demand.
  •                   A.  The biggest factor in DOGE's value is the community. Probably the largest active community. They love their coin
  •                   B.  There are online stores where you can spend your DOGE for stuff... like an XBOX1.
  •                   C.  The confirmation times of DOGE coin are fast, so it can actually be used to buy stuff quickly unlike BTC/LTC
  •                   D.  World news stations are covering it because the community is sending people to the Olympics and stuff



So that's why. I actually think DOGE coin is probably the most valuable coin out there. If I was picking one coin to put all my faith in... It's DOGE for the reasons I just said. How about you tell me why you dont think it is worth anything of value.

BTW - In case you wanted to tip for my advice, my DOGE address = DTGmiJLnn1r941s4Rb2JNjttTXt7Ht2BnY

In my opinion, you want to buy/mine a coin that has yet to be widely discovered.

Once the media and the whole world has jumped in, there will be less upside potential. The trick is to find the coin before the massive run up in price.

How to find the next winner:

Take a look at the list of coins on coinmarketcap.com and look for those that are undervalued. The trick is to find coins that have a disconnect between underlying fundamentals and market price. Do your homework and realize that coin value is derived from; coin name, size and quality of community, and developer genius.

Then read, study, and research, and find the coins that the markets have not yet found.

Becasue he holds DOGE and wants the price to soar.

I posted this elswhere, buy or mine DOGE if you have GPU

Here is why i am back into dogecoin

1) this great thread on money\confidence flowing into each coin

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=430639.0;topicseen

DON'T BE STUPID AND PRIDEFUL PEOPLE, DOGE REWARD HALVES IN TWO WEEKS, THOSE DOLLARS SHOW ZERO SIGNS OF SLOWING DOWN AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE REWARDS HALVES!?!?!?!? I think everyone is a bit naive and stupid not to recognize what DOGE has become.

2. Reddit online count is always more than bitcoin and their total members is half bitcoin and crushes everyone else

3. Only coin that has a clue what community and marketing is about. DOGE is in the news every DOG GONE WEEK.

4. network hashrate is bigger than litecoin.

5. ALL coins are done mining in 14 more months

6. halving is very fast

7. it is a gpu coin so mining diversity  and numbers will continue to grow

I think DOGE has crushed the endless attempts to crash the coin. Now everyone will either be on the train or waiving as it rolls on to crush rivals on the way to #2 crypto coin in a few short months.

If you disagree, feel free to refute the facts i posted, rather than cry about a scam or stupid meme. The theme or the tech of a coin mean nothing to most of the world and doge has that figured out.

And I'll disagree that crypto currency follows the standard economics of Fiat currency. What you described is exactly how you would invest in the stock market. You'd consider which companies have a low marketcap and have a product that could cause that marketcap to push significantly higher. With Crypto currencies you have no such product, you only have FUD with no intrinsic value. Crypt-Currencies are a lot closer to the 2001 dot-com crash than they are to the current version of the stock market.

The most important question you can ask yourself when buying coins is "do I believe in the future the internet hype of this coin will cause its value to sky rocket"? Yes you are right, with small marketcap coins you can get a lot, and if they do take off... jackpot. But it's likely those coins wont take off. Best bet for coins taking off is probably within the first couple months of their life.

Coins I currently like a lot and would like to own as much as I can
  DOGE
  MoonCoin
  TIPS

I even think some older coins have good buy value at the moment... Coins like
  DMD
  GLX

So am I an expert at this? No. no one is. If you can model the irrational nature of this, then I'd very much like to see your algorithm. Im working on some myself, but in no way think I am an expert.

So this month reward halves and it will have no impact on the price??? If anything it will go down?? Is that what you are saying??? One thing is for sure, if I am correct in summarizing your opinion then one of us is retarded.

+1 for you. I must admit community is a real factor in a coin success. DOGE has indeed a broad community.

I do not hate no coin, I do not say it does not worth for nothing I am just trying to figure out which ones are the best to invest in. As a rather old school guy I am very sceptical with the minimalist concept around DOGE coin (except the broad community: once again, here you are right). Maybe I have to change my point of view !

In the meantime I made a deal with the BitCommoditiz guys (bought 1,000 of their "XAUz" for a small fraction of BTC). I like their concept.

An undervalued coin that would be good to buy is Lottocoin, there is a new Texas Holdem game coming in the next week or so and also the block payout will be halving in 38 days. Pretty good odds that it will be going up soon. It is traded on Cryptsy, CRYCUREX, Coinedup, Coinex and a Chinese site called Guogao

My honest opinion why the StarTrek coins should seriously be looked at:

Just get 0.1 BTC worth, very little risk, big potential upside.

That's exactly the nice little bet I made with the BitCommoditiz... As told before I am a rather "old school" guy, can't really figure out if your sci-fi coin as a temporal future in the Alpha Quadrant.

Good luck anyway!
