Bitcoin Forum

Apart from Bitcoin, Ripple, Quark, Dodgecoin, Litecoin, Mooncoin, Opal ..... Just wondering if anyone has any views? I'm just finding myself overwhelmed with the amount to chose from and knowing which ones are worth following more closely and understanding better to eventually invest in.

To me you basically listed them all, especially Bitcoin, Lightcoin, and Dogecoin.

This is going to become another buy my shittycoin thread lol.
Anyway there are several project worth to follow like DRK, BTCD, GEMS, CKC, etc.

SDC, URO

Someones a drugo

From what i have read this two coin are for now with good perspective.
But i give more to URO.

There is no question about it this may be good for discuss or bad.
Coins are made every day so i dont know witch one will be good.

BTC is here from start, lite is fist to follow and there are more stable in the picture, doge, dark, nxt, qrk, .......
 So we can pick one.

Right follow some coin and decide what is good and what can be good from shadow.
Also this can be downfall as well.

Anyway this can turn up to be good matter to talk about.
Maybe add voting poll OP.

i'm not convinced mooncoin will last. It seemed dead then came back but if it almost died once it can do it again.

ridgid supply coins: Some of the POS coins, such as Peercoin, nxt, bitshares. POW coins such as bitcoin will wither.

fixed value coins: nubits

2.0 platforms: too early to tell

Add Bitshares, Next, Peercoin, Counterparty and Darkcoin.

Neoscoin on top of some of those,

Great dev and really dedicated, way undervalued but people will find out sooner or later.
Today nice 40% gain ;)

Remove litecoin and dogecoin IMO - pretty useless in the literal sense of the word.

The key to survival is whether a currency is useful and innovative but most of all disruptive.

I'm not certain what dogecoin will do. I thought it was a shit coin that would be dead in months when it launched. Nevertheless it's still here a year later.

probably alot more than people would naturally think. I like coins like NEOS, SDC, XST and some others

Define "last".

In a year; BTC, LTC, DOGE, DRK will still be around... along with shitloads of other dying/crippled cryptos

In 10 years? Impossible to say, but my guess is that there will be some Anon-crypto, probably decentralized (eg xc, xst, sdc... Whatever gets flawless and functional first)
BTC will probably be outrunned by some smoother, faster, more functional crypto that is designed to be a general worldwide crypto that will piss off Visa, Mastercard, Banks, accountants...  ;D

There will probably be some government/company-developed crypto around too. (Ethereum?)

Shortterm;
My crystalball tells me that the anon-crypto that manage to merge with openbazaar (or similar) will be a winner when the DarknetMarkets gets shut down/users start moving to OB.
This would be a winner with the massive and insane cashflow it would provide.. atleast for a few years.
The key would be to have the crypto easy available for the crowd. (eg pay with visa-card for crypto)

ps.
A thing within Crypto that I never understood is why no genius make a coin "complete" before release.
To get publicity it should be released in a basic version and be updated every 2 weeks or so to keep the interest up/cashflow in.
In eg 6 months/12 updates there would be a functional, perfect coin for whatever reasons were decided when the idea of the coin originated.  ???

edit; Trying to make more sense.

I wondered that. It's really annoying having to check if there's a new wallet out each time you want to check your balance. It's much better to release a coin that rarely needs updates.

How far in the future are we talking about? Tomorrow? Next year? Ten years from now? None of them will probably be around 10 years from now.
