We need a new marketplace to buy things with these mid-level coins. Obviously there are a lot of coins that have died, but there are still many in the range of 15th to 30th place that have some value, even though one coin might be worth .0001 cents. I think people that are holding on to these should use them to purchase things now. I would be willing to sell digital product (software, pdfs) that I've been making money on for many years for coins that people are only really using now to do trading with. How else are these things going to be established, since in a lot of ways they do seem on the way out, unless they have some niche marketplace? Having them circulated puts more of a real world value on them, because people have a vested interest in keeping them going.
I think that it is a great idea. It would be nice to have even more pleaces to use altcoin to give them backing and a value.
I think we should focus on digital purchases because it is the fastest way to make transactions.
