Title: Just a note for the new people Post by: smoothie on February 21, 2013, 09:39:51 PM Novacoin is a scam. Wouldn't want you to be manipulated into buying something that was started as a scam and still is. Price pumped up to $1.30 today.
Beware. You have been warned. Also...welcome! Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: Mr. BlockSize on February 22, 2013, 07:37:05 AM Thanks for the warning
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: lopalcar on February 22, 2013, 04:45:13 PM thanks, I was getting confused with so many different information about destroyed premined coins and that crazy prices...
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: gcali on February 22, 2013, 07:26:18 PM Is there a site similar to the BBB for bitcoin sites?
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: Raoul Duke on February 22, 2013, 07:30:01 PM LOL. Smoothie, litecoin is also a scam.
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: CryptoJunky on February 22, 2013, 08:40:58 PM Smoothie, is there a coin aside from Bitcoin that you don't consider a scam? ;D
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: veteranBtc on February 22, 2013, 10:44:57 PM Thanks for info.
Litecoin - Scam?? wow.. Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: BTCSylar on February 22, 2013, 11:20:54 PM That's what they called bitcoin in its early days. They also called it a ponzi scheme. I have faith that one day Litecoin will be popular, (and I will be rich ;)) Novacoin on the other hand...
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: johnniewalker on February 22, 2013, 11:47:03 PM I don't believe any altcoins are a "scam" per se. Some may be successful, some may not. Just like Bitcoins in their early days. People who bought them were taking a risk...and it obviously paid off. Although, my 2 cents says that there really is no place for an altcoin w/BTC becoming so ubiquitous.

Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: Monster Tent on February 23, 2013, 04:46:38 AM If the bitcoin devs cant work out the block size before the limits get hit then there will need to be a backup coin to handle scaling issues.
Title: Re: Just a note for the new people Post by: maxcarjuzaa on February 23, 2013, 06:05:57 PM we do not "need" a backup coin, Bitcoin is fine, LTC will gaine value because it was in the right place at the correct time, ASIC proof means that a high percent of gpu mine (25%-35%) will switch to LTC.
And the most important thing, LTC has the bigest userbase after BTC. There are a payment procesor working in a solution for LTC and lot of projets working for LTC. We need an alternative coin for speculators to trade against BTC without using us dollars :-) you know, some people hate fiat currency. REMEMBER: THE VALUE OF A COIN COMES FROM ITS NETWORK EFFECT. BIG USER BASE=MORE PEOPLE TRYING TO GET THE COIN=HIGHER VALUE (ignore unknows coins with artifically manipulated high prices), You can spot these cases (if any) in the graph above) |
