NOT BTC ALTERNATIVE /  NEVER FULLY LAUNCHED:
(do not have bitcoin characteristics or never active )

-JPU J-Coin- YAC clone? no source - not a true crypto!
-EMU Emunie- Not launched yet, closed source beta only. May be a big thing - coin based on trust, not hashpower. Yet unknown if will be decentralised and opensource or ripple-like.
-MSC mastercoin- Not launchet yet, but you can buy them already. coins created by buying them with bitcoins. operates on a bitcoin blockchain.
eCash historical try for digital curency by David Chaum, operational but died. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DigiCash
DigiCash was the company that made eCash . Possibly where Bitcoin came from.
Ripples XRP-  , no mining - all coins available at start 80% foundation, and 20% develeopers. centralized, not opensource. not designed to be a currency, but an IOU exchange. Very innovative and usefull, but "not an altcoin"
Amazon Coin - centralized private scrip launched by Amazon and pegged to USD, not cryptographic at all, just a name.

Groupcoin - still alive but never realy active  
Opencoin - opensource version of digicash, opencoin.org , not launched yet

[wigo21]

What do you guys think about Devcoin? is it possible a coin like that will ever reach $0.50 or even $1? or is it total junk?

[inkadnb]

Add NXT, check my sig.

[sensecrack]

 just notice SavingCoin (SAV) is missing from the list. It's not a very popular coin yet but it exist and work pretty well. It should be on the list.

Month ago I know only about Bitcoin and Litecoin 

I'm wondering, that NMC difficulty adjustment isn't the same as BTC?

well guys give this some attention upcoming and 4e in rank :  WDC  Worldcoin :




The Worldcoin Foundation has been formed to promote, protect and to ensure long-term adoption and sustainability of Worldcoin as a global currency.

 

In order for Worldcoin to succeed as a currency, we realized it was necessary to have a foundation set up to provide legitimacy to the coin. We aim to provide a voice for the community to the developers and maintainers of Worldcoin, as well as a platform to help disseminate news and information about it.  It will rely on donations to keep running--those funds will be allocated to projects which can help Worldcoin advance as a currency. This will be done in a transparent fashion, with transactions available for all to see.

 


As Worldcoin is an open-source currency, it is important that everything regarding it be transparent. We will keep the community updated with all things Worldcoin to ensure questions are answered in a timely fashion. The site will be a hub for news and information about Worldcoin as it becomes available.

Forgive my ignorance, but why isn't Peercoin listed?

Delete the pre-mine on StableCoin, all the pre-mined coins on Stablecoin were destroyed when the coin was revived.

Forgive my ignorance, but why isn't Peercoin listed?

It is, as a PPC , peer to peer coin, the original name.

[xorxor]

Delete the pre-mine on StableCoin, all the pre-mined coins on Stablecoin were destroyed when the coin was revived.

I assume there is a proof for that, is there ?

DESTRUCTION OF THE PREMINE

As some of you may remember, as part of the old mixing service, there were 1.2 million coins premined to act as the basis of the mixing pool. Of course, this caused much anger within the community, with accusations that the money would be used improperly, among other things. 5 months later, these funds have yet to be touched, so I'm happy to have proved those people wrong on those front.

However, under the new mixing system, these coins are no longer necessary. Accordingly, these coins will be publicly destroyed, as they were never intended to be used for anything other than mixing.

In this case, the 1.2 million coins were created in the genesis block. You might notice this is different than most coins that do their premine in block 1 and onward. This is because there is a well documented quirk within bitcoin that makes the genesis block unspendable. This is because when Satoshi designed the client, he decided not to add the coinbase transaction from the genesis block to the global transaction database.

To make these funds spendable, I added a simple bit of code during the initialization of the client (init.cpp). This code adds the genesis transaction to the global transaction database, making it spendable.
Code:

Code:

        // Genesis block
    const char* pszTimestamp = "June 7 2013, The Times, Prince Philip admitted to hospital for two weeks";
    CTransaction txNew;
    txNew.vin.resize(1);
    txNew.vout.resize(1);
    txNew.vin[0].scriptSig = CScript() << 486604799 << CBigNum(4) << vector<unsigned char>((const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp, (const unsigned char*)pszTimestamp + strlen(pszTimestamp));
    txNew.vout[0].nValue = 1250000 * COIN;
    txNew.vout[0].scriptPubKey = CScript() << ParseHex("0449D77B9B62E0DB1FD6150ECFC5722F31FEE52E585DE31B5AEFAD2CAC415D5698991F8F0B0CBBA7B9F4431BBE79B684876EDFBD369554ACC4182753FA48A3CD80") << OP_CHECKSIG;
    CBlock block;
    block.vtx.push_back(txNew);
    block.hashPrevBlock = 0;
    block.hashMerkleRoot = block.BuildMerkleTree();
    block.nVersion = 1;
    block.nTime    = 1370579804;
    block.nBits    = 0x1e0fffff;
    block.nNonce   = 2788;
                
        uint256 genesisHash("0x0a59605118489aa9cde58e64210d3d56e246758fbabcd1482e54bf4032545221");
        uint256 hash = txNew.GetHash();

{
        LOCK(mempool.cs);
        mempool.addUnchecked(hash,txNew);
}
                
{
        CTxDB txdb;
        txdb.TxnBegin();
        CBlockIndex* pindex = mapBlockIndex.find(genesisHash)->second;
        unsigned int nTxPos = pindex->nBlockPos + ::GetSerializeSize(CBlock(), SER_DISK, CLIENT_VERSION) - 1 + GetSizeOfCompactSize(block.vtx.size());
        CDiskTxPos posThisTx(pindex->nFile, pindex->nBlockPos, nTxPos);
    txdb.UpdateTxIndex(txNew.GetHash(), CTxIndex(posThisTx, txNew.vout.size()));
    txdb.TxnCommit();
}

By removing this code, the genesis block becomes unspendable, and the coins are essentially destroyed. This is the most eloquent way to accomplish the goal. Version 1.3 of StableCoin has this bit of code removed. I urge everyone to update immediately.

OK Guys!
With the recent price explosion, we have here some revolution in the altcoin world.

everything is now what MAJOR was not so long ago.
We have to change all the categories.

 my proposition:

TRUE CURRENCIES
-BITCOIN
-LITECOIN

THE BIG ONES
-MAJOR
-MINOR

NOTICEABLE
-MAJOR
-MINOR

CANDIDATES
-MAJOR
-MINOR

PURGATORY
-PROMISING
-THE REST


There is a lot to update, I found around 35 new coins.

[pmconrad]

Xorxor, may I humbly remind you of a proposal I made some time ago:

That's why instead of everyone trying to push their own favorite alts up we should establish some objective criteria for categorizing coins. From the top of my head:

* age (reason: newcomers have to prove themselves before they can be taken seriously)
* hashrate (reason: measure of community support, albeit questionable. Tricky due to variety of algorithms, PoW/PoS differences etc.)
* trade volume at exchanges (reason: measure of market support)
* market cap  (reason: measure of market support, albeit questionable without significant trade volume)
* transaction volume per day (reason: measure of usefulness, but questionable)

Ideas, anyone?

I'd rather avoid spamming this thread with a discussion why XYC is not a "true currency", whatever that means. :-)

So long as you stop being biased against GLD for no good reason. There was no instamine, it was set out to have superblocks at the start to make it fairer for day 1 miners as other coins had linear growth but ignored the fact that their difficulties were not growing linearly.

I know plenty of people who had nothing to do with the original team that got some of those coins.

Where the hell did you even get the 3.2% number from. Seriously it's about as erroneous as you could get.

And how exactly is it determined who gets into what category?

Will you be making the unilateral decisions here?

How much of MicroGuy's koolaid did you drink to actually think super blocks are fair?
