I hear it is 51 proof what about 52 ? ? ?

Most of the altcoin exchanges seem to basically be opportunistic scam-enablers, listing any scam or piece of crap that they think they can make enough money off of to cover their labour and support costs of adding it to their exchange, but...


Wouldn't it be nice if there was an altcoin-exchange that did a whole lot of due-diligence, only listing coins with high enough difficulty and dedicated hashpower to be reasonably secure against 50+%-attacks, with good history of bugfixes and availability of public nodes to connect to, with good "fundamentals" such as hashing algorithm, block speed, schedule for minting of coins and so on and so on?

The closest thing I had found to seeming to be such a site so far was Vircurex... but today they added today's scam-of-the-day! Hmm... maybe worth watching to see if somehow in such a very short amount of time since the coin was launched they have delved into it enough to have made a really good call on this one or whether they are going downhill starting to grab scam of the day coins instead of waiting to see which coins do turn out to actually be good candidates for listing on the exchange?

Myself I went ahead and starting trading the new coin, figuring hey so far they don't seem to have picked any real dogs so no matter how scammy DOGE looks to me maybe the Vircurex admins are on to something. So basically I am tentatively trying "trust them on this, they haven't screwed me yet maybe they aren't screwing me this time either".

Just trying to keep abreast of one's trading on one exchange can be massively (as in way the heck more than a full time job) time-consuming so if you can find an exchange which picks good coins even better than Vircurex does I'd love to hear about it as I'd rather put in my trading hours as quality time than put them in chasing garbage coins that in the long run are just going to get 50+%-attacked to death etc. (That is what I suspect most scrypt coins are headed toward since they cannot be merged mined; all the SHA256 coins that cannot be merged mined likewise seem ultimately doomed. So I kind of hope that Vircurex is going to drop old scrypt coins (that cannot be merged mined) if it adds new ones and am looking forward to seeing whether their addition of DOGE means they will drop some other one that has less difficulty/hashrate than DOGE; if not I worry they might be heading toward being just another scam-enabling site, listing more coins than seem reasonably likely to be able to end up with over half the hash rate of their type/form of hashing (half the scrypt hashpower in the world or half the SHA256 hashpower in the world or half the prime number sequence finding power in the world etc.))

TL;DR maybe simply using the exchange that seems to you to do the best job of only listing the best coins would be a good solution?

(And if so, have you checked out Vircurex?)

I would never invest in a currency whose name is the same as an horrible dictator that suppressed spanish people during 40 years (1936 - 1975), sorry dude, worst name ever for this coin.

why the fuck do so many bet on quark?
seems like it has risen a lot already and i don"t see why it should be that high

having been in internet marketing and such for the past 20 years i was new to alt coins even though i have known about bitcoin all along...just never decided to get in....when i began my research one coin stood out:  goldcoin.....simply based on the name alone...that was the one i decided to begin mining....this list will always be skewed by peoples hopes that the coin they are heavily vested in will be the one that takes off...so its very hard to get an unbiased guage...but from my own experience and the circle of people i have been talking to...all fingers pointed to goldcoin on the list i showed....sometimes name is all you need.

so, that is why the price is going up that high,,, many sellers cant sell..

UPDATE:

I took a day off on Thursday December 12th and drove up to Tallahassee to the Florida AG's Office. After about an hour lecture and introduction to Crypto for two Investigators and Assistant AG, I then showed them several exchanges and Cryptsy, who was operating inside the State of Florida. Excited wasn't the word, you would have thought it was Christmas in addition to their jaw's dropping when they saw the volume and the amount of unregulated $$$ flowing through Mr. Vernon's site. They were extremely concerned at the potential fraud that was happening and the theory of a possible multimillion dollar ponzi scheme just seemed to materialize out of thin air. While she said they couldn't determine "if anything was indeed amiss, they were certainly going to be talking to Mr. Vernon as well as contacting their Federal counterparts"

btc38 instead QRK adds APC and DGC  nice choice?

Such a lonely flat chested hairy chin girl you must be to have nothing better to do on a Friday night than hate on a digital currency.  Makes me lol.

Sounds like someone is butthurt that other people are buying QRK instead of their crap coin. You only see the amount of hater threads like this against a successful coin.

Jealousy doesn't look good on you.
