Next big thing?

[umbara ardian]

("The next big thing) is that many of the giant altcoin markets.

[emezh10]

So many in the market all altcoins have a potential to becoming like bitcoin but the closest is eth, ltc, xrm, xem etc when you compare it in the bitcoin price but considering they can all be successful at the same time and also considering that they are just alternative.

[JosNekoKopa]

I'm not sure if this artificial rise of altcoins can be taken for granted, and this potential is based on promises and is proven through PND, i don't see one  used in real life that has real value, not predicted value estimated trough Marketcup.
*Majority here talks about Maketcup, which can be manipulated through total number of coin and do not represent value of a coin or token..

XRP if you see their recent changes and get well educated on it, then it is an easy buy.

A token/coin/scheme/contract system that can do this will be the next big thing.
Fees will be say 0.001% of all transactions which go to the coin/token holders and assurance/incentive fund.

This is not something hard for accomplish and this will be implemented Ethereum blockchain, maybe something similar is in progress already. We already have Projects with endless possibilities like ETH, Waves, KMD..Those teams will surprise us with many new features for sure!

Yes, it seems that ETH token /contract is the "in" now a days. Ethereum strategy a good one. They created a token based platform and anyone can create their own coins.With this, they are creating their own ecosystem within their platform.

ETH was definitely not the first to do that. NXT, NEM, BURST, COUNTERPARTY and many others far long before ETH even existed had this concept and are used for making your own tokens.

Yes, but different from past implementations, Ethereum created a way for these issued assets to be controlled autonomously with smart contracts. I think that is a big difference is between Ethereum and past asset issuing implementations.

What do we really need from an altcoins, what is the next big thing?
We have anoncoin, platforms for trading and smart contracts, tokens..
Where are we heading?
Bitcoin was something completely new, can we expect another one?

we need "developers" not "business men".
and right now we have the later.
bitcoin is successful because it was made by a developer who wasn't looking to make money, you can see that after 8 years Satoshi coins has not yet moved and possibly will never move in the foreseeable future.

can you say the same thing for any of the altcoins? not at all.
ETH that everybody praise, has Vitalik who dumped a massive load on the first pump and as soon as the dumping began and took out a couple of million dollars out. and that was only 25% of his personal stash.

the rest of the altcoins are the same. they are made with one thing in mind and that one thing is "how to make more money out of it".

and as long as this is the mentality, nobody in the market will treat altcoins more than a pump and dump.

..."we need "developers" not "business men".
and right now we have the later."


On the contrary the industry needs the capability for mass advertising, promotion and education. "MASS"!  That is the next wave.

It is, yes. And this is part of the reason for a lot of the ill-feeling towards Ripple... instead of going for widespread public adoption they're bypassing it and working direct with the banks.
(this is not a pro- OR anti-Ripple post!)

Blocknet and Bitbay will hopefully be the next big thing.They are both unique and will help the whole cryptocommunity.Both projects can be used by the average dude and are useful.Not like many projects that are only for big companys or nobody does know exactly why it even exists and what it´s used for(or maybe someday will be)

Ripple is not positioning itself as a currency nor is Ethereum. It would seem that Dash would be next in line if they don't fix this scaling issue soon.

[douglock]

Ethereum-based tokens are the best. ALl of them are good and we can earn a good profit from it. The prices always go up after they are listed on some exchange. They are the best

[chain_chain]

I think something like Storj (blockchain-based cloud storage).

I think that ltiecoin will be the next big thing because you need to know that they have activated the segwit and soon they will also have the lighting network for litecoin

Here's the next big thing that no one has heard of yet..scroll down and read the paragraph.

And don't believe any project like IOTA that says its quantum computer safe, it's not...this is.

I think where we are headed is ETH and XRP probably. BTC still to be used by us and regular people.

BTC in a way is the reaosn these altcoins keep coming up. The price of the altcoins are mainly based in BTC on exchanges and determine their worth. Lately XRP and ETH have been pulling away from being based on BTC and will probably keep going up in value.

ETH still has 2 more updates to do before it is completed.

As expected, congratulation XEM for passing LTC and taking the number 4 spot. The road to $2 billion continues. With tech that is as good as Ethereum's but just in a different way, more as a scalable currency rather than an application platform but with some great functions, it will be at $4B market cap before you get a fraction of the posters to mention it... by the time it hits $6B  people will finally be recommending it.  Not  trying to hype it, it's just plain as day to me. No brainer.   While people are focusing on patches like segwit in the forums we have superior tech already trading, and it's in the number 4 spot now.

The largest online bank in Japan has been testing Mijin since 2015 and has had a 90% cost reduction. With faster transactions and a much more secure network than Ripple, being far more easily customization, NEM is really taking off with all sorts of businesses with implementations ready today.

[CursedHeretic]

Reddcoin is primed and ready to take us to lambo-ville boys.

[derekis126]

Stratis is next big thing, all implemented in C# platform, beneficial for C# devs.

[AmarO]

What is NEM whoa?

[Vilrex]

Buy Arkkkk before its too late... you will regret not buying Ark 2 months from now
