Title: All altcoins will survive Post by: HCLivess on December 14, 2014, 02:03:22 AM Yes, they will. Stop comparing them to startups or real-world companies, which need to compete for survival. Running altcoin networks is close to costless and they are virtual, just like email/youtube accounts. Altcoins are decentralized decentralization.
Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: chesthing on December 14, 2014, 02:06:41 AM You know how many coins have died in the last year? they go to near zero and get delisted from the exchanges, that's how they die. "Very few altcoins will survive" would be much more accurate to say, although I'm wondering if that's too optimistic.

If you can buy it on http://www.shapeshift.io/ with bitcoin, yeah, they have future :) Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: HCLivess on December 14, 2014, 02:12:28 AM You know how many coins have died in the last year? they go to near zero and get delisted from the exchanges, that's how they die.

You can still buy it - but you only need IQ of 60 not to have been there in the first place.

Altcoins are decentralized decentralization. Lmfao what world you living in. All alts will eventually die out unless they have continued updated and a good dev team to support their development of their coin and people start to provide services for it and adopt that coin otherwise its just another sh!t coin. I have watched over 200 crypto coins go from hero to sh!t in a matter of days and months and then soon get de listed from all exchanges. Then some return to exchanges and then soon crap them self. Look at flappy its on Cryptsy but under LTC most coins will get shifted around to make as much profit as an exchange can make or person can make on it it every gives up supporting it. Some do out last and do continue but many fail and then get re owned and new people take it on to try to bring new life into it but even then it tends to live and die hard and theirs only a handful out of about 300 coins from this year surviding but even they will fade away unless theirs constant development for them and people use and adapt and trust and put funds into it to hold value and grow otherwise its bye bye.

Scroll down a bit......... welcome to the crypto graveyard :P I guess at least 500 crypto bodies are not even listed. Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: TheMage on December 14, 2014, 06:48:12 AM http://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/ Scroll down a bit......... welcome to the crypto graveyard :P I guess at least 500 crypto bodies are not even listed. About 500 would be correct, there are over 1k alts now. Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: K210 on December 14, 2014, 07:42:38 AM Only litecoin and peercoin will survive all other alts will die
Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: arieq on December 14, 2014, 09:48:42 AM Thing is, a year ago we had several hundred less altcoins. Admittedly most of the new ones are crap and has no support in the real world and is accepted by no one except speculators. only a few that are real contenders.
Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: e-coinomist on December 14, 2014, 11:35:29 AM Only litecoin and peercoin will survive all other alts will die The first had an innovation type (Scrypt mining) which is now meaningless. On the second I agree, most probably Bitcoin will have to hardfork for turning into a pure POS coin, since TX fee maintained POW networks are destined to fail in all cases.Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: sniveling on December 14, 2014, 12:27:51 PM http://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/ Scroll down a bit......... welcome to the crypto graveyard :P I guess at least 500 crypto bodies are not even listed. Tenebrix is not listed there because it's not on an exchange any more and the network's almost dead. It's probably more accurate to call it a zombie coin rather than a dead coin until the last few people give up mining it. Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: gjhiggins on December 14, 2014, 03:11:05 PM Thing is, a year ago we had several hundred less altcoins. I guess we're near enough to the end of the (calendar) year for gubmint work ...This SPARQL query, when posed of the DOACC metadata (https://github.com/DOACC/individuals) (RDF graph), will return a count of coins with an incept (YYYY-MM) date in 2014: Code: PREFIX doacc: <http://purl.org/net/bel-epa/doacc#> atm, it yields a total of 1627 <- altcoins launched (or at least lofted) in 2014 (thus far, give or take a handful). For extra credit, elaborate the query a little: Code: PREFIX doacc: <http://purl.org/net/bel-epa/doacc#> pass it over to sgvizler to handle the posting of the query and the rendering of the results as a chart: https://i.imgur.com/DwFKi3K.png Looks like 2014 was the Year of the Altcoin. Obviously not all will survive, some have already failed. Maybe the title should have read “All altcoins will survive. Discuss.” You can run the “2014 total coins” query for yourself by pasting it into the textarea on https://minkiz.co/sparql or following this pre-completed link (https://minkiz.co/sparql/query?query=PREFIX+doacc%3A+%3Chttp%3A%2F%2Fpurl.org%2Fnet%2Fbel-epa%2Fdoacc%23%3E%0D%0ASELECT+%28COUNT%28%3Fnode%29+as+%3Fncoins%29%0D%0A%7B+%0D%0A++++++++++++%3Fnode+doacc%3Aincept+%3Fincept+.%0D%0A++++++++++++FILTER%28%3Fincept+%3E+%272013-12%27%5E%5E%3Chttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2001%2FXMLSchema%23string%3E%29+.%0D%0A++++++++++++FILTER%28%3Fincept+%3C+%272015-01%27%5E%5E%3Chttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2001%2FXMLSchema%23string%3E%29%0D%0A++++++++++++%7D+&output=html). Cheers Graham Edit: added DOACC url Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: sniveling on December 14, 2014, 05:13:46 PM Looking at that chart it appears to me that more alt coins start launching as bitcoin's price starts rising, and the more bitcoin crashes the less alt coins launch.

"Very few altcoins will survive" would be much more accurate to say, although I'm wondering if that's too optimistic. Yes, the wildcat stage of cryptocurrencies is probably at its mid-point. The herd thinning may begin soon. It already is. That's part o' life in a boom town. Even happens in 'legitimate' industries. Do you know how many American car companies there were when Bill Durant was still running General Motors? Well over a hundred!

Others are just for pump and dump. :)Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: PaulPierce on March 10, 2015, 07:33:26 AM The coins and there chains will mostly stay around but many of them will never even be used again.

If (say) Nxt takes off, there'll be a monsoon of Nxt clones. Title: Re: All altcoins will survive Post by: bitcoin4eva on March 11, 2015, 10:01:11 PM Not even sure if OP is for real with this one... Not many altcoins really survive.
