Building a platform for crypto-nerds is going to get us nowhere. Building a platform that will attract a wider audience is what will privail at the end.
Thats why is made this topic, its not something coin supporters here like to see cus network effect is their weakest point and you saw a ridiculously few of them focusses on that. Majority is build indeed for crypto nerds and not for the public and imo without network effect it wont ever be successful. |

I feel more cryptos should start to make their project in a way that is actually interesting for the public and not just for a couple of altcoin crypto users, the alt user base is incredibily small and big pump and dump usually come from a couple individual which brings the hopium for its followers while it only has like 100 active users max, even less. |

As you have seen only 0.3% is doing decent in reaching mainstream, for a crypto to reach mainstream devs have to really work for it as having funds, connections and the right model. |

That depends, only investment nerds watch the stocks and play into it and there is plenty of money in that, others just pay financial investors to do it for them. Crypto doesn't have to be a cash replacement that is just one use and it doesn't need to be used by everyone, adoption will spread if it is good. Stock yeah but alts not really. A Crypto without any userbase is nothing, the current state of alt trading is just a few whales that got rich during btc boom are manipulating the markets and for the rest its bots. Only way to be successful is expanding userbase, years has gone by and alts marketcap are all stuck at their price, once in a while they go up a little or down thats it. There is no new users being added its all the same old folks. |

There is no new users being added its all the same old folks. Nah there are plenty of users in the alt scene the problem is they all spend like 20$ in crypto and not a lot. I think the alt scene is truly is a couple of categories 1: The ones that have users (LTC,DASH,Monero,PPC,NXT, ETH)2:The Manipulations (Ripple,Bitshares,stellar) 3:The speculators (Byte,Clams,scenario,Prime) It pretty much comes down to that in alt crypto. Please stop, their userbase is a joke. ltc more than those but the rest of your suggestion shouldnt even be there. Having users to me is tens/hundred of thousands not couple hundred. |

That's your opinion, in the crypto world these have a lot more users than most of the other coins so in my view I would say they have userbases. Well it seems doge and getgems have more users than those u listed and their ios hasnt been counted aswell, getgems only has an additional 20k users on ios. |

Aiming crypto nerds it will only get you so far, you cant really expand beyond that in a significant way. |

Just network effect isn't everything, there should be services offering easy to buy solution with fiat because mainstream won't really use exchanges, in this case network effect will play a huge role in marketcap. Or you can put a couple whales to play with an alt and manipulate it whenever they want (which is mainly what we seing now or you can reach real world adoption and engage them in trading. |

The iOS wallet for Gulden is now available for beta testing. Users can pay at any Gulden or bitcoin merchant, making it the most usable iOS wallet available. |
