Title: alternate cryptocurrencies - which ones are worth time?
Post by: VeeMiner on October 17, 2012, 07:52:24 AM
Hey everyone.

I'm pretty new to Bitcoin and I have also read and been interested in Litecoin and Namecoin for a while now. Now I hear there are bunch of other cryptocurrencies, different branches of pretty much the same thing.

So can anyone tell me if there is another alternative cryptocurrency other then Namecoin and Litecoin worth watching?

thanks

The ones merge-mined at bitparking seem to be the most "mainstream" of the alts right now.

DevCoin, IXCoin, I0Coin (albeit this one is diminishing rapidly), NMC and BTC.  LTC of course is not merge-mined but a strong alt.  PPC is just getting off the ground so decent idea to keep an eye on it to see where it goes.  SC/MC are possibly abandoned but also not likely going anywhere anytime soon, of course if the tires start getting kicked on the MC migration/whatever it could be worth while keeping an eye on it.

it seams like LTC is a good idea , after  gpu miners leave BTC due to diff. increase , it will be a somewhat rare coin.

speculators rised the price obviusly, coz week ago or 2, it was 0,05$ and now its 0,09$

whoever invested got his hands in the honey-pot :)

cheers

Every fork of Bitcoin is just an attempt to catch the train to the country of millionaires. Keep this is mind.

Well, maybe Bitcoin was devised to make the world better but later it was corrupted...

I would say LTC, doing well so far the early adopter are smiling now. but many altcoins are different in one or two ways. do your research well and explore those whitepapers. Even though i do find Scienticcoin (SnCoin) worth watching out as it dive deep into the science and technology

congratulations you just answered a question that was asked 6 years ago. the starter of this topic is surely now relieved that he has finally gotten a valuable answer!

Litecoin has been rising, I think you should choose it is LTC. Simply put, we invest to get the highest profit. And this is probably the right alternative for you, a newcomer like me. ;D

But on the other hand, he resurrected the theme of the statue and now all newcomers who read the starting question will not be so ashamed of their lack of knowledge)))
