Re: Altcoin of 2016?

wouldn't that be by definition a coin launched in 2016?
or are we just gonna rehash this months hype coin collection

[Ubertroco]

I think we will see a rise in some alts a BTC staying the same. ETH LISK XMR will rise but BTC and LTC will do nothing much

[J1mb0]

Monero - good security and community support

Ethereum - seems to have strong support

Factom - fairly new had a strong start this year

Ripple - 3rd largest market cap just behind Ethereum

Dodge, MaidSafe, NXT, BitShares, Dash and etc

So out of all the competing altcoins which ones do you guys think has the greatest potential this year, and also which one in the long term?

None of the above. Especially the ludicrous 'scripts on a blockchain' type coins that absolutely cannot scale with present or reasonably forseable future.
Ripple may break out as a contender for a Paypal type offering but it is not a distributed decentralised system so doesn't really count in this context.

What do you guys see for the future of Bitcoin and do you think Bitcoin has a likely possibility of being replaced by one of the altcoins mentioned above?

The only future I see for Bitcoin is if they scale the transaction processing infrastructure AND go POS - otherwise it's future is effectively as a centralised store of wealth only.

I see POS coins generally doing very well by the end of 2016 with at least 5 in the top 10. Some may be new with compelling new features and possibilities.

I guess ETH has good potential. besides the price is pretty high, arguably the most coins ETH is good for playing trading

[Hamukione]

I would say that Darknet is a good idea..
And if you get in now, you can make some good money from masternodes with a low buying.

Check my sig for more info

I'm terms of Dev syscoin is where Bitbay was 6 months ago. Yet Bitbays Marketcap is 10% of what Syscoins is! So Bitbay should rally up soon to have a Marketcap I at least $3m

Lisk

[Jannn]

Lisk

How can I easily get several wallets for the altcoins in this topic? I don't want different sites like blockchain, is there a way to get all in one?

The Altcoin of 2016 could be the Ethereum. It will convert to PoS in eary 2017 and the issurance of new coins are from 0 to 2 millioin.

[Daimaru]

i will choose VIP token and AMP , my biggest profit

[axxo]

Decred, IOTA, Lisk and VIP will make it big this year and beyond.

[Game_Seller]

As far as speculation Eth for actual use and business backing Rubies.

[Lasvista]

I will choose Ethereum. The price has risen 10 folds this year. So the development of the coin can continue, this will increase the price further.

[Mike8]

So many coins....
Eth looks too... pumped.
Xmr seems to be the sleeping beauty, but who knows how long will it sleep?
The others I don't know...

[rentahash]

DASH

true digital cash!

[fragout]

NEM and SJCX. ETH of course but has probably topped out for the time being. There is also a big boy coming that is under the radar

[Nxtblg]

As far as speculation Eth for actual use and business backing Rubies.

How are businesses backing Rubies?

[funsponge]

Bitbay. Should be a top 15 coin with all the dev work it has. People starting to see its potential this week and has gone up 300%
