Next big thing?

[rumex]

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.


I completely agree with the poster of the above. (Bitseller) This is just the facts.

I think in the coming year there is an altcoin that can compete with ETH.

Could probably be Byteball -> No blockchain and therefore no scaling issues!

obviously legends room. sex always sell

Something that has actually real world utility and B2B.

It already is coming IMO, but like anything in Crypto Currency it will surprise most people because with a good well funded team with the great idea, the next great thing will actually work with business as a business to be scalable, secure, low cost, be usable and integrated with business processes.

I think it's more like we will learn the advantages of the altcoins which exist already.  Ethereum, Litecoin and some others have shown that they are great coins to use, but most people, even among those who use bitcoin already, don't bother to take a closer look at them, maybe because of the lack of time, but still. IMO Ripple has a big potential, although it is ideologically an opposite to bitcoin thing and bitcoin fans will never accept it.

A Virtual Country on the Blockchain is my main interest now. We need an automated country on the Blockchain with  Mortgage for Citizens, Schools, private security, transparent tax system, Industries, Embassies, Healthcare, jobs etc

Some of these Ethereum-based protocols that solve real world problems and have the potential to attract mainstream users to crypto, like Aventus! Check it out: https://aventus.io. It is an event ticketing solution that eliminates unregulated touting and counterfeit tickets!

I think in the coming year there is an altcoin that can compete with ETH.

I agree with BITBAY too ..

But I do not agree with Blocknet either.

Remember to look also at the side of Zencash and Zcoin ... and Darcrus ..

But I do not think you will see these altcoins at current prices!

[chineseprancing]

Next big thing happen in cryptocurrencies world are a lot of altcoins were open and give opportunity to the other users. In addition I was expecting of price increasing in all altcoins. However, all I can says is speculations and no proof. I'm hoping all I can say happen in the future.

It's amazing how ppl tend to forget how waves is performing.

First altcoin with an decentralized exchange
First altcoin with fiat in the blockchain

And yeah compared to ICO's Waves is the only altcoin that can compete with Ethereum at the moment. And then we are talking about ICO"s which raised milllions.

[befrank]

Minereum is a promising project. I am in it from the beginning and profits are great!

[Mpamaegbu]

I want the next big thing to be the altcoins that I am holding in high volume..Doges and Litecoin... . Of course who wouldn't want that. It will be really a blast when dogecoin finally picks up.
