Someone needs to encode the CAD file into the blockchain.

Would it be better for Bitcoin if the alt coin world were saturated with thousands of alt coins or would it hurt it?

Does that solidify Bitcoin more as the main coin or does it dillute it?

It would seem to me that having one or two competing coins would create some competition, but with thousands, alt coins would become something nobody would want to invest in.

I have used them. I bought some dog food for my dogs and a book for my nephew. It is actually quite convenient, I do not even need to register and setup my checkout at the online store I am buying from either. They are like my personal shoppers.

I am not sure about plane tickets, I was wondering about that myself. Maybe if you went through all of the steps then gave them the website and the exact choices necessary they may be able to do it. I was considering doing this for a cruise.

You can always try, all they will do is send an e-mail saying that they cannot purchase it for you.

The top angle pieces grow when they move.

I think the same trick could be used. Why don't you think so?

Not a coincidence.

Yes, FINCen making it so that anyone trading bitcoins for dollars was oh so helpful.

Took down at least one exchange, stopped bitcoinbillpay, made it so a decentralized exchange will only work if it goes through the government (centralized) approved exchanges.

Good thing? Any new regulation is never good. No matter the intentions.

I wonder if 1000 new alt coins per day would hurt Bitcoin or solidify it as the main coin.

Maybe I should create it...

Tired of waiting for a new alt coin of the day to come out? Want to create your own?

Introducing the alt coin generator.

You simply go to www.altcoingenerator.co and choose from the drop down menus and it will spit out the source code and a precompiled binary for your new alt coin.

Some of the alt coin options:
Name
Script, no script
number of coins total
number of coins per block
time between blocks
number of pre-mine blocks to create

Have a great idea for an alt coin? Use this app and become rich as everyone drops Bitcoin and starts using your coin.

First 1000 alt coins are free. Limit 10 alt coins per user after that.

Watch this quick how-to to get started:

Edit: site is currently under construction as I turn this into a p2p distrubuted alt coin itself. Mining will spit out alt chains in blocks of 50 per 2 minutes. Maximum will be 2.1 billion.

The BTC price is falling because everyone is dumping their BTC for yacoin.

I just paid someone 10 BTC for 10000 YAC.

They are holding the YAC in escrow for me.

Was this a good deal?

Millies have been agreed upon for millibitcoins and Mickeys for microbitcoins.

I took a class on group psychology once, here is the reason for petitions.

A petition is usually worded in such a way that you will likely side with the person doing the petition. You will put your name down further verifying that you are on the side of the petitioner.

If, down the road, the subject comes up...then you know what side you are on and you have gone the extra step of putting your name to it so you will be more willing to defend it. And even donate to it or volunteer.

That is because a large chunk of Bitcoin's price is people just wanting to invest in something and get a good chunk of change out of it. Not for converting over to their new currency.

Alt coins offer a higher risk with higher returns and thus attract some of those investors.

I am converting most of my dollars to bitcoins for future use but I have taken a small bit for investment into LTC with the knowledge that they will soon be trading on MtGox and those same MtGox day traders will be willing to jump onto that market just as quickly.

When you do not actually care about the underlying product you are trading, alt coins are just as good as anything else.

I have mined 1000 coins. I will sell half for 10 BlooCoins/1YAC.

10 print "YAC created."
20 goto 10

Hi, I saw a thread with a bunch of posts.

What is going on in here?

I tried to mine it early, even translated the Chinese announcement before it was on here and did not get a single CNC.

I mined for about 2 days then gave up.

Would the reason be that I am running it on my (fairly new) laptop, or that my Internet connection sucks?

I propose an alt coin based upon this:
