I think this coin is flying very low under the radar and will soar soon, it is a great example of real world application instead of speculative uses and I remember the craze of the 1st million dollar homepage in '05.

I'm convinced this coin will explode just because of simple math, 2.5 million coins is scarce and any coin on coinmarketcap in this same level has generally experienced growth of a few dollars. I mean come on, how can Ybcoin be at $3.31 with a million coins and Smartcoin not reach at least $1.50? Especially having a much more catchy name and a better fundamental technology behind it. I snagged a few thousand while they were dirt cheap myself because I believe in its potential.

No, it does not. They earned them.

So did all the powerful banking families earn their power, wealth, and influence.

That stuff doesn't grow on trees you know. Takes a certain level of guile, intelligence, determination, fearlessness in the face of vast risktaking over several generations at that.

I disagree, early bitcoin adopters were in large part not risk takers but just lucky or had good foresight. I think the average user now who is willing to drop a few grand on just 3-5 bitcoins hoping to strike it rich has much more nerves of steel than the college kids who hoarded hundreds or thousand for pennies 3-4 years ago and just happened to hold onto them.

Nobody knows if a bitcoin is going to go up, down, sideways or in circles. You know what a fugazi is?

Sorry but I disagree with everyone here, it IS a serious problem for bitcoin going mainstream. While the coin community may have known of Gox's problems for awhile and are un phased, this is the year of Bitcoin's "coming out" to the public and governments all around the world taking notice. If a major exchange collapses or runs off with millions in fiat and coins, I can see the proverbial ban hammer of government happening sooner than we think. I know you can't kill bitcoin as a p2p currency but if there are no legal exchanges to buy or convert currencies to, well good luck...

Also as someone who joined the coin game relatively later, I have to ask a legitimate question, why is it so many bitcoin holders put full faith and their savings into a former Magic the Gathering trading card site run by incompetent boobs yet have spent the last 2 months making fun of meme coins, calling alt coins scam coins and what not? You trusted thousands of dollars to scammers overseas who won't let you withdraw your own money for months yet make fun of a coin with a dog on it? It makes no sense. I mean what did you think would happen, that a bunch of basement dwelling 2nd rate IT guys could become an effective multi-billion dollar international finance operation overnight? It's madness!

What's worse, how many here even routinely paid as much as $150 more per bitcoin on Gox than every other exchange and yet you can't even exchange it back to fiat and get paid in a timely manner! The level of stupidity among bitcoin holders who in theory should be of higher intelligence than the average mouth breather with faith in our Keynesian masters astounds me sometimes. The only thing I can figure is alot of cryptousers are Aspies and unfortunately naive to the world around them sometimes.

Managed to snag a little over 2,000 Smartcoins at 0.3 BTC, if we can climb this higher to 0.1 BTC a piece i'd be a very happy man this year  Grin

Not to be a pessimist but I don't see how we're going to be 4x more expensive than LTC lol

Oops wrong decimal space lol, I meant .01 BTC which I think is a more realistic goal. (although yes 0.1 BTC would be very sweet indeed)

I went all in on most of my coin holdings and am the proud holder of 580 coins. If we do end up seeing bitcoin 1:1 pairing, oh my god my life has changed overnight...
2429  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.5 Released! on: February 04, 2014, 02:15:09 PM
Lulz, it's going up again. We saw this same shtick a week or two ago, it was going down and the haters we're doing their "nyuk nyuk we told you so!" then it rallied back.

To me it is amazing that the community has managed to push back against the whales. Also if you think there is a future in ANY alt coin, you SHOULD support doge being successful because if a coin like this can be dumped and abandoned immediately with so much enthusiastic support behind it, then no other alt stands a chance at being anything more than a pump and dump.

Sorry but this is BS argument. So what if Gore owns carbon tax company. We own cryptocurrency because we believe in it.


If Al Gore is so convinced about the dangers of rising sea levels in the next decade and what carbon levels in the atmosphere will do to the climate, why did he buy a $9 million dollar ocean front villa and sell Current TV to the Petro sheikhs in the Gulf when he had plenty of non-oil producing parties interested at home?

I won't speak to the science of global warming but the guy is clearly a con artist.

I got another joke....Early 20s nerds who were only last year living in their parents basement who were just lucky enough to jump in on BTC when it was pennies and are now rich acting like they are Gordon Gekko talking smack about a cute dog coin while they trade on a former Magic the Gathering site run by Otakus.

I admit I've only been in the crypto game for a short time now but I swear alot of the community around it is just as smarmy and elitist as the crooked bankers like Dimon. Also if you want the truth, speaking personally as a graphic designer I find Litecoin's logo to be a crude, amateurish attempt by a 1st year photoshop student who just discovered the gradient tool and attempted to emulate those bad 80s faux-metallic graphics like a He-man cartoon or WWF. I also would feel no more embarrassed to walk into a store and pay for something with dogecoins than "Feathercoin" or "Peercoin" which aren't exactly endearing names for a currency either.
