Hi, first post here.

Hey guys, first post here. I´ve been following BTC since it was 30$ (a friend of mine bought 1000 when it was 2$), he always picks the good businesses... unfortunately for him he sold 700 when the price reached 20$ and now stands with "just" 300 BTC... lol.
My point (like veryone else I guess) is that I am afraid that maybe now is too late (at least for doing big bucks) so ALT cryptos seem to me a very good long term alternative. At the moment I own some NMC and PPC, and I am studying to enter MEC. What do you think about it??

I guess that's the natural approach for those who missed, like me, the early days of affordable bitcoins and litecoins (although there is yet obviously great potential here for long-term gain).
Yet, the more I look at the alt crypto-currencies, the more I believe that the next big hit will certainly not be a mediocre fork of the existing SHA256/Scrypt-based algorithms. Something new, with great potential will certainly come out of it, but I guess it will come from disruptive thoughts, disruptive designs and disruptive implementations. Not the kind of copypastas a lot of the alt-cryptos look like.
However, that being said, I'm like many of the newcomers, I want to believe that maybe there's a jewel in all these currencies. I'm also ready to change my mind, if needed, time will tell ;-)
My two cents.
