Title: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Tyke on February 23, 2014, 02:13:38 PM CRYPTOCURRENCY "THE ALT-ERNATIVE" A BEGINNER'S REFERENCE (BOOK) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cryptocurrency-The-Alt-ernative-A-Beginners-Reference/285429871619708 Twitter: https://twitter.com/MrSilverCider For a few months I have been writing a book aimed at introducing beginners to cryptocurrency. Since March 2014, I have devoted much of my time towards researching a total of 40 coins (including Bitcoin). This book will also have other pages which define cryptocurrency terminlogy in a non-technical manner. Besides these, factual tables, statistics and more will be included. At the moment (20/11/2014) I have completed 39 coin sections with the following still incomplete: Startcoin START After the introduction, there are 20 sections based on the following topics: a) What is Cryptocurrency? b) Why does Cryptocurrency exist? c) Why are there so many "alt" coins? d) Is Cryptocurrency money? e) What is mining? f) The Blockchain g) Proof of Work and Proof of Stake h) The Wallet Client i) The Block Time j) The Block Reward k) What is a Pre-mine? l) Difficulty Re-targeting m) Scrypt, SHA-256 and others n) What is a 51% attack? o) Community p) Exchanges q) Coin Developers r) Purchasing Cryptocurrency s) Advertising/Marketing t) Anonymity These won't necessarily be it the above order Here is a list of all the coins that feature with the associated wallet address for anyone who would like to donate towards publication: Anoncoin: AVeZWZhcirLsAMokib4xW1K3gp3cEEGrRd Auroracoin: AWxnGDZRGfocA2DavHwdBkBkskSEk4XfdN Bitcoin: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Blackcoin: BPNq8NC4BRvyKnaz6SQKHwXq2yz6Cbcrpc Britcoin: B7CjPTjNiAqu8ssVYXvTX9RUkjo8U8JgU3 Colossuscoin: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Cryptogenic Bullion: 5o6x2zFPxJJ8YLJS5jCMVr7GHvpNMfPFV3 Diamond: dU8K16XNB8ag1bvN5p4vmc63tEWqobtU4C Digibyte: D8FwazAemow92sytzsynouaJWPXDZ9q6zq Digitalcoin: DL9Qmj4D22zYApUWq4jkeAKsF9pLBrbmAH Darkcoin: XdoMpS6wX63TVBma9EG53PG2VJnMnSPJ3d Dogecoin: DFUtWBobuunHixutMQg6RC4VgyxbCjsKFy Fastcoin: fzhZfh6n4jdt1mT99DsLqVrMvUriKWgoi8 Feathercoin: 6zchh7YiHZCjjUhbh3dwjnMSbFaZ8PbHTj Fedoracoin: EbjEBNmAX551trBgP9vJeEj9msohjcuvKd Franko: F6C49xF2xfqZUGQDNwD39BYv25BikqLHio Goldcoin: DyAaaLrZLbC3i8FjLjQtqWYWQtk4ZL2izA Hobonickels: Exe8wnqtA6y9kd1nrRg6Jx65NRZZ3btPWu Infinitecoin: iHyNV7FhoT544qiwrVXgw65fa6aoJgK6dG Kittehcoin: KPqpp9vKhj32q5vWrVLinnrUs2uB9Nakvx Leafcoin: fNcLkTKh45PaT7jpp7LJUEo7ooUQL5ceT2 Litecoin: LXasFmEHwvfyvb1DAYmtPXKEuGi6csEatS Lottocoin: Ly8V89bHwfCV93grsJamZoEseQwqpKykXz Maxcoin: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Mazacoin: MNKwkKX6y3eMwZssJndJmD5bnbhJbKo7oo Megacoin: MJcK6bf7UuD8ZGkWZxKk8UgTWHcmFHVfAz Mintcoin: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Mooncoin: 2THQ74iskgoTXSWEEZZ9R1tkFa9575aDhu Novacoin: 4Jwe9irSWiJ3sQMLxVApX6pYhffndxsE1E Nxt: 14081530087791934508 Peercoin: PPdMapGc4uBxUafofpvbgwqWgPWRfxW9FK Primecoin: AJjzXu6SDSH7oS2uM6NfJmHE8qyx5CJ2ts Quark: QQphDV4qXWcZzSib5GEzLP4LhBpyf8mYBU Qubit: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Reddcoin: RcKcF8LcaHiCNr3yhPawaVJ4JujUX8426s SaturncoinV2: ScdXipVvcXCuZFbEr496U2J75oyjcb1ZWk Tagcoin: TYKjp2dqVUybyQSRL2VNXN3nquWgsf4LtS Topcoin2: 1DXSGWvvK4tcHLzF3iXr8AG9Trxjedajhk Ultracoin: UeCnPrfaUJBRCi6125VpvCQJ3Mn8hvbbs1 Worldcoin: WR7btpVfet3e5ioLLNFRx4dzR5k4YDmXY8 Zetacoin: ZaSz7txCRL2KnzZmFQT7NZkNAL33Qj4ih8 Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: MicroGuy on February 23, 2014, 03:12:31 PM Nice idea!
Maybe you could make a text list of each of your altcoin addresses (which are pictured) so they can be easily copied and pasted. I liked the page and will be keeping track of your book's progress. Good luck with your project. :) Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: SecondsOld on February 23, 2014, 03:14:58 PM Cool idea, but I don't think someone should be required to make a donation to vote for a certain coin. Why not just open a free poll?

Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Rannasha on February 24, 2014, 07:14:29 AM Almost all of these altcoins don't need 2 pages. All they need is "cloned Bitcoin/Litecoin source, changed a few numbers".
Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: quarkfx on February 24, 2014, 08:00:41 AM Almost all of these altcoins don't need 2 pages. All they need is "cloned Bitcoin/Litecoin source, changed a few numbers". Haha, same thought here. Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Lethn on February 24, 2014, 08:13:24 AM Let me know if you guys who know your stuff agree with me but the only altcoins listed I've seen which have actually tried to be different are: Anoncoin, Primecoin, Litecoin, Peercoin and maybe Worldcoin
The rest are coins which are either direct copy and paste jobs of Litecoin or they are aggressive pre-mines or centralised systems, I do think there are possible a couple of extra ones out there that have the potential to change their code though with the devs behind them. Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Lauda on February 24, 2014, 08:19:53 AM No, you should definitely not mention these as most are copy coins.
Bitcoin and 4-5 coins that stand out is enough. Don't ruin your book. Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: SmokingSkull on February 24, 2014, 09:14:27 AM I dont agree here.
Take Zetacoin too, It's inflationary form is rare in this market. By now only Quark and Zetacoin are inflationary in the Top30 i think. Nobody would be mining all these other coins after they have reached their ceiling Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: quarkfx on February 24, 2014, 09:29:29 AM Let me know if you guys who know your stuff agree with me but the only altcoins listed I've seen which have actually tried to be different are: Anoncoin, Primecoin, Litecoin, Peercoin and maybe Worldcoin The rest are coins which are either direct copy and paste jobs of Litecoin or they are aggressive pre-mines or centralised systems, I do think there are possible a couple of extra ones out there that have the potential to change their code though with the devs behind them.

Nobody would be mining all these other coins after they have reached their ceiling I also think that Quark is very undervalued Quark isn't "undervalued".... In fact, no crypto currency can be "undervalued"... This isn't stocks and shares. They aren't attached to companies that have tangible / non-tangible assets. Literally the ONLY determining value in any crypto coin is the market itself.. Its current value is a reflection of how the market feels about the coin. If you were to ask me to invest in Quark, I'll ask you why? ...You'd then probably disgorge some over-enthusiastic rant about "intrinsic functionality"... I'd then tell you that, at this stage, no body cares about the "intrinsic functionality" of ANY coin.. Like it or not, people wan't to put in X amount of dollars and in two weeks cash out a XXX% return. Simples Quark is dead in the water if you ask me.

Donīt want to wave the Quark banner but you are contradicting yourself. On the one hand you say that cryptocurrencies canīt be undervalued on the other hand you call Quark a dead project - which is saying that it is overvalued/has 0 value. The whole cryptoscene is dominated by chit-chat and self-fulfilling prophecies and you are just another example like the guy who says that Quark is undervalued. Beyond that it is not true that cryptocurrencies have no tangible assets. Cryptocurrencies do not exist in empty space, they have (or havenīt) infrastructure that supports their use. The value of Bitcoin e.g. is founded mostly on the network, of the exchanges that list it, the apps that were written for it, even this forum contributes to a sustainable value of Bitcoin. Same goes with every other Altcoin. If your coin is intended to pump and dump only, like Pandacoin, you have mostly anything but trade. But there are many coin - and Quark is one of them - where you can see people actually working for the coin and developing cool projects. This, of course, doesnīt mean that this will be reflected in the price shortterm, but it will long term. Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Tyke on February 24, 2014, 04:10:05 PM Quark has about 0.5% inflation per year now. Over the long term, it's not as inflationary compared to many of the other coins.

LOL, if that was the case then the price of Bitcoin would be much lower than it is now... what with the ever present specter of a 51% attack hovering over this "infrastructure" you speak of. The first major Boom in the price of Bitcoin was brought about largely as a result of the Bank run in Cyprus - there may have been other catalysts, but overall it was that Bank run that took us to 1.2K. Since then, the market has been driven by speculation in it's most potent form. China makes a few redundant statements, the weak hands sell their coins = the price falls....

This is gonna annoy some people, but most altcoins have almost no interesting or novel features. We have got to a stage where the only real differences are the number of coins to be issued and whether u have a panda or a penguin as mascot. Miners mostly don't even care about what they mine, as long as the diff is low. NXT is not based on any existing code, and is building an insanely innovative financial eco-system. Think Mastercoin/Ethereum/Ripple killer.....well worthy of a couple of pages in your book.

Anyway, I'll read your book as long as you don't include MAX in it. Unless you put it in the "Greatest overpumped scam coins in the history of crypto" chapter. Then again - most of the coins in your poll could fit in that chapter as well.

When the bitcoin/altcoin recovery comes, I think this is the currency that's going to rocket. I would put my money on Particle Coin. Seems like GoldCoin doesn't have that much innovation behind it and really is just another alt coin. The only benefit that i see with Gold Coin is the fact that it wasn't premined. We need alt coins WITH CHANGES, not clones and mimics of successful coins.

How desperate can this forum get. He just spammed every shit alt-coin thread asking for "donations" for a book he hasn't started to write. What exactly is anyone expecting?

All of us (i think) in the cryptocurrency space want to spread the message about this new technology, medium of exchange. I am putting alot of time into contributing time and resources into a project which I feel adds to this message. Many people who are aware of cryptocurrency are not participating in it or hold any coins of any sort.

Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Quanttek on August 18, 2014, 06:46:14 PM I think you shouldn't write about every Clonecoin, which will be forgotten at the end of this year. Innovative, that are here to stay, should be the topic. Projects like Ethereum or the CryptoNote technology. Especially latter is an extremely sophisticated and promising technology and with Monero one of the most active developed ones. It offers true anonymity through ring signatures and stealth addresses and has also an innovative algorithm which offers egaltarian proof of work. You shouldn't waste time on coins like Innfinitecoin, they will be forgotten in half a year and when remembered, then as another clone coin
Title: Re: Cryptocurrency "The Alt-ernative" Beginners Reference Book Post by: Tyke on August 20, 2014, 08:58:04 AM An updated cover. All the news seen have four page sections.

I think the question is more "what to promote" instead of "where to promote". Where you should promote is on banner adds on sites frequented by crypto enthusiasts. I'd help with a list, but I'm sure you're familiar with dozens. More important is what you're promoting. It seems that you're creating a one time publication, and you'll sell it when it's done. You should sell it as a subscription, 1year paid in advance, where each month the subscriber gets maybe 4 new pages, and updates to previously published pages. Maybe the whole thing could be one pdf being the cover, intro, background, definitions, etc, then each coin would be a seperate pdf. This will be an excellent piece of reference material, it will stay current, and will also have historical significance as many of the coins you document disappear. You should stress this.
