Where would u being, just watch any Jed or Chris early interview promotion of ripple, seen a few where its directly labelled by founders, inner circle as bitcoin 2, here's a 2 sec google and Chris dribbling about it being the second iteration of bitcoin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH4IqGaYpCUFirst, that's Chris, not Jed. Second, "second iteration of bitcoin" is a description. "Bitcoin 2.0" is a name. There's a huge difference. Coke can say it's "an improvement on Pepsi" but if it says it's "Pepsi 2", that's a problem. no shit sherlock I just gave a 2 sec example of similar cause I cbf finding the various vids of Jed saying ripple is Bitcoin 2, and Chris has also stated the same....you always lose me how your brain works interpreting things however you see fit without thinking about what the person was infering. (you've even privately infered I'm an idiot based on the penny not dropping for you on a number of things.....you suffer the smartest guy in the room syndrom when you are far from it on most accounts) |

4) Putting "Bitcoin" in its name seems like a deliberate attempt to convey an official connection to Bitcoin that doesn't exist and is likely to create confusion. If its developers truly believed in it, they wouldn't do something so cynical and malicious as this.
lol this coming from an Opencoin employee with 20 billion XRP If you think I have 20 billion XRP, you're off by a factor of about 10,000. Jed originally constantly promoting ripple as bitcoin 2 to the uniformed and even stealing the name opencoin from a non profit credible bitcoin group just to gain some credibility for ripple I never heard Jed do that. If you have a credible source, I'll believe you. But I never heard him do that, nor anyone else claim he did that. I have seen articles that ask rhetorically if Ripple is "Bitcoin 2.0", presumably to suggest that Ripple might replace Bitcoin. But, so far as I know, nobody is making any attempt to intentionally confuse Bitcoin and Ripple so that people think Ripple has some connection to Bitcoin that it doesn't have. As for opencoin.org being a "bitcoin group", I'm pretty sure they're not. The OpenCoin.org folks have no connection to Bitcoin that I know of and the group became more or less inactive in 2009. And, frankly, the possibility of confusion with that group was one of the downsides to choosing 'OpenCoin' as a company name. Not because there's anything wrong with them, just because you want a name to be as unique as possible so you can choose what people associated it with. That's why names like "Amazon", "eBay", and "Microsoft" are so good. It really looks like you're trying to start an argument for no reason here. Where would u being, just watch any Jed or Chris early interview promotion of ripple, seen a few where its directly labelled by founders, inner circle as bitcoin 2, here's a 2 sec google and Chris dribbling about it being the second iteration of bitcoin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH4IqGaYpCU(and math based currency wtf lol) anyway I don't have the time to start an argument for no reason, just found it rich you knocking another coin for riding on bitoins coat tail when no matter how you paint it ripple itself did....hell look at the forum you gave the biggest giveaway on...go figure. Not for a second am I saying such marketing is wrong or a bad idea....hell dumb not to promote any crypto/alt currency along the lines of bitcoin, one of the most widely recognised cryptos. "If you think I have 20 billion XRP, you're off by a factor of about 10,000." oh I didn't mean it like that, added "" to make what i meant more clear. |

XPM market lol you have to be joking? Big Verns obvious self interests starting to screw over all traders, adding a million and one scamcoins with many obvious bias'........
Alts had a chance Cryptsy had a great chance, started great, grew and now they are just making one self interest dumb ass move after another, until all traders are getting jack of it.
Auto sells, too many alts added, spreading investor money too thin, scam devs coins added at the drop of a hat, dev's with multiple coins neglecting half..........such short sightedness.....
so long and thanks for all the fish

There are so many alt coins my head is spinning. What coin do you think has the highest chance of making it?
What do you mean by 'making it'? Define what you class as making it? Notthing here really has a snowballs chance in hell as being adopted as a global alternative to fiat, (which should be the aim but thats lost on most people here). Do you mean survive as a trading token? Well that all depends on us, who wants to keep what pumping. I have a feeling gldcoin will survive as I have myself plans to keep it going if this alt community does not (in any case its one of the few coins kept alive not out of personal gain by its core supporters). |

Bitcoin over the past 60 days has gone up from $68 to $140.
During this time alts didn't go much higher the way I originally theorized but instead collapsed with some going down by 90% and with only a few coins being spared the valuation killing.
So what is going on? Why isn't Bitcoin's fast appreciation taking up the alt coins?
Its not unique to cryptos its a classic market phenomenon. For example in the stockmarket I trade the days when the top 200 have a serious rally the penny stock generally collapse. Think about it, most people holding near worthless alts hold them to sooner or later transfer them to the more valuable bitcoin. The more valuable bitcoin is percieved the greater the temptation to convert. However longterm; bitcoin is a yard stick so the higher it goes the greater the potential of any alt that survives. |

Quality control at the top altcoin exchange is important at this critical time or else altcoins in general will fail -- trust me. If any scammer can make a coin, get it listed on Cryptsy by making a bunch of fake accounts to post with and/or paying others off to assist, and then rip off uneducated buyers there is a real problem. What is the point of all of these clones? As soon as they get listed and dumped they are completely abandoned and it keeps happening. Just because there are enough suckers to make the scam work doesn't mean we should be enabling the scammers. A line has to be drawn -- it's getting a bit ridiculous.
The copy/paste coins have to stop (even the ones that aren't scams from this point forward) - this entire market is quickly becoming a joke and I'd hate to see everything collapse.
+1 Some dodgy dev's and coins have certainly got past cryptsy filters, get the network hash up, plug a few please add messages to cryptsy (get others to do it by giving out freebies) and bam you're on and ready to dump, then copy paste your next alt. Dev's with multiple listings, dev's with no programing experience, dev's that are known scammers, several of the devs I swear must be like 12, its all there on cryptsy and fast making it all a joke. |

Please don't add any more coins, and delist some of the ones you have.
Come on we know cryptsy thinks adding each coin brings new traders, that doesn't work indefinitely and its soon to kill the overall market. Current method is very shortsighted.

Those that stay out of the Altcoin scene in general are at a high risk of being caught in some level of fraud facilitated by the Scrypt Bitcoin, due to its name.
SaltySpitoon
Yep and hanging around the backstreet of this forum and you can easily see the level of fraud associated with Bitcoin, high risk of fraud with btc so can we ban talk on it too? |

Topic says it all. Please list what trait and a short description of why you think its important/how it affects the altcoin's viability. Ill start off with one of the obvious ones:
premine - If a coin is premined it gives an unfair advantage to those who do the premining, giving them a disproportionately large share of the coins. This exposes the coin to a massive dump once the price rises a bit and destroy any value for any later investors. Historically, all premined coins have failed.
All that come from the BTT community are premined in this little niche community, relativity to the broader community most coin wish to be adopted by. Not sure theres enough history in alts to see what's failed and whats succeeded, if the goals of a crypto are to become a proper useable currency (as an alternative to fiat), then to date none have succeeded. Problem with most the crypto community is they class success as a cryptos price v USD, making all cryptos little more then trading tokens. |

Bitcoin and Litecoin developers did the work and you just come and copy past....
Open source...no? yes, which make it a bad copy  , and the one who copy and past cant call him self a Dev, developing is all about innovation and resolving issues..... yes within this community there's certainly alot of blabber on about innovation, every troll in every thread seem to repeat the same gibberish, does anyone here ever think in actual terms of decent public adoption? Which brings me to the point; 1) joe public doesn't give two hoots about what u guys describe as innovation. 2) I am yet to see any real innovation in this alt section of the forum., |

if I were someone who was about to invest into crypto currencies, I would definitely do my homework and research before blindly throwing money at something. The history of this coin is just too tainted to garner any real, worthwhile investors.
