Title: Crypto Currency values ?
Post by: Kprawn on May 24, 2014, 06:59:30 AM
Where do I find the value of all the crypto currencies, currently in use?

What factors influence the strength of these currencies?

In your opinion, will the rest of these currencies also reach the level where Bitcoin is now? And is Bitcoin the strongest, because it was first? Or
because it is used most?

Help me understand the basics first  :P

Bitcoin is the strongest becouse it was the first cryptocurrency. You can find other informations on the market cap of the most famous coins here: http://coinmarketcap.com/

You won't find the values of every currency. Cryptsy carries most of them though.

The factors that affect each currency are the same ones that affect any business. Speculation, marketing and adoption.

None of them are likely to reach Bitcoin's success. At least not for a very long time. And Bitcoin was here long before the others were and has hundreds of millions backing it.

Ho Ho... Drago thanks for that link.

I would have never guessed that there was so many different crypto currencies out there... {Wow listed on that site = 290}

Well if Fedoracoin or Infinitecoin reach Bitcoin levels, I would have a smile, right around my head.

Think I have to talk to Amazon to adopt only one of these currencies, as approved payment, for anything bought or sold there  ;D ;D ;D

There is a huge gap between Bitcoin and the rest.....tho!

Hmmmmmmmmm We can only dream.
