How much is a namecoin worth?

About 1/20th of what a namecoin was worth 6 months ago

Geez man.  Freaking tanked.  Rate of namecoin domain names went with it.  Geez.   Would be nice if be able to get a few dollars for each coin.  Im gathering a decent stash. 
Someone needs to come a long and buy a sh/tload of the market up.

My thoughts exactly. What a strange market.

With really no development or support. It's pure pump and dump.

Someone bought like 100k namecoins. Yup they will have lots to register domains like 3h3jkseis349.com and qw34939erfs.net

Probably just someone excited about this:  http://dot-bit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3051#p3051

it was not me. I had not even noticed until I read your post.     had no orders sitting around either.

Maybe someone had a good idea or is about to release something Namecoin related. Unfortunately still not me - yet  .

Buy it all man...have at it. I'm sure people will sell you things for those precious NMCs.

worth about as much as a Zimbabwe dollar

Namecoin is one of the most heavily hashed altcoins, thus possibly less easy to attack than some of the other choices.

In order for bitcoin to function usefully as a store of value for use as collateral against which to borrow buying power, it needs to be used in conjunction with something that can serve as a medium of transmission of borrowed buying-power. Altcoins seem pretty good candidates for performing that medium-of-transmission function...

If it is necessary for someone borrowing to buy a car to be sent millions upon millions of namecoins, enough to clear the order book, plus millions upon millions of the next best altcoin, enough to clear its order book too maybe and so on, just to keep their bitcoins safe and sound as collateral still growing in value, then I suspect the altcoins used for that might not be as cheap when the folk who bought them put them back on the market so that someone else can be transmitted the buying power to buy a car, or the first car buyer wants to buy a house...

Your general premise may be correct but IT being Namecoin is not true.

Namecoin has several HUGE problems:

1. It's leeching off of Bitcoin and is produced with basically zero cost.

2. Domain name squatters total like 5 guys that have taken all the good domain names.

3. There is no real interest in it. For christ's sake it still doesn't even have  GUI interface.

4. ?

The new Windows build that someone suggested might be why it tripled in price isn't GUI?

Wow I thought you could hardly even claim something is for Windows at all if it isn't GUI.

I wonder what if anything is new about it then, surely they already had a namecoind since whoever was a whatever.

But okay, fine, maybe DeVCoin will have to do then.

Namecoin has been around for like 16 months and it is still IMO......shit.

Not as bad as SC but pretty close.
