Bitcoin going to walstreet which will soon be Main Street.  Like I've been saying since I got here, alternative coins are gonna sky rocket as soon as bitcoin goes mainstream which should be by next year.


ETF for Bitcoin coming which will change the whole idea or alt coins which will bring in the masses and wallstreet.  Hang on, it's gonna all start very soon:

OK but.
Why is Ixcoin better than another altcoin like Namecoin? Or Devcoin? Moreover when both of them have active developpers who didn't disappear for more than a year?

If you agree it's far from being better just say it.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Ok, we're looking at this from different points of views. I'm looking at sales, marketing, etc and you're all technical about it.

The developer premining and then disappearing was a big no-no.  The fact the coin survived on its own was amazing and that's why I bought it.  I waited and bought at 1 penny and now I'm down 50%. 

If you look at any other coin with any controversy you'll see no coin with a bad launch or any funny business survived.  A then imagine this coin with some leadership. 

And the developer is back so I expect good things but not until bitcoin goes mainstream which will be hopefully 6-12 months.

As for the features you keep talking about.  Look, a hard fork can turn any feature on or off.  It's not like you have to kill a coin and start a new one.  Any problems a coin has as far as features or lack of them can be added later on with little issue.

Right now its about getting your name out and getting a user base before hundreds of coins pop up which will happen very soon.  We'll see a new coin everyday instead of a new one every week or two.  And they'll get much better as real talented developers with a crew start seeing the value.

And if the bitcoin ETF gets the go and it will, then it won't take more than 6-12 months after that to see an alternative currency basket ETF.  And that's gonna drive alt coin prices up like mad cause for every share of an ETF purchased by funds, investors, etc, they have to buy a certain amount if preset alt coins. 

For example with bitcoin for every 1 share of the ETF the fund goes out and buys 1 bitcoin.  Can you imagine the upward pressure if just a small % of the American investors or hedge funds invest in this ETF?  There's only 11 million total bitcoins out right Now. It's gonna be crazy.  I mean, $1,000 bitcoin price is actually a conservative price.

And if bitcoin hits $1,000, do you think the other coins will just sit?  No way, all boats will rise and some coins which resemble bitcoin, like ixCoin does should have an advantage as some investors will speculate if its just like bitcoin then hey, maybe it will be the next bitcoin.  That's just how people with little experience invest.  I've seen it in stocks for over 20 years.

Mark my words, the fed will give the bitcoin ETF their license which will give further proof this is part of a much bigger plan to go digital.  Cause there's no way any govt would allow a currency like bitcoin go mainstream to undermine the dollar.  Impossible.

A huge confirmation to my theory was the fact like 2 months ago china ran a special program on Their commi CCTV Channel telling their population to accumulate bitcoins?  There's no way china would do that unless bitcoin was being gamed, given they killed their own Chinese version of bitcoin (QQ COIN) in 2006 as it was being used like real money and was hurting the yuan. 

The game is on, just buy all you can and hold for the big show.

[Vlad2Vlad]

IxCoin is better than namecoin cause it has fewer coins, but most of all namecoin is too specialized.  I just don't see it ever being used as a general coin. It will go higher, if bitcoin goes to $500 namecoin will go to at Least $10, but on its own its not that great.

IxCoin is better on some ways than devcoin although I like devcoin more.  First, the 21 million coins compared to devcoins 5 billion and growing to infinite as it has no hard cap.

So in the short run ixCoin could outrun all these other coins but in the long run I can see devcoin do much better due to the fact it's a very socially acceptable coin, its an easy sale for any government, it does a lot of good, it has a business plan (the only coin so far), so overall I'd say devcoin is the best coin with the most long term potential - besides bitcoin of course. 

% wise the big money in bitcoin has been made, and when investors come in they will know that which is how I know they'll start looking for other alt coins to invest in and they'll see lots of similarities in ixCoin.

Ok I get it
So if I fork Ixcoin into a not specialized Xxxcoin which would have only 10 million coins, it would be the better coin of all times?

[Vlad2Vlad]

Is that supposed to be funny?

You think the other coins are better cause of features.  What feature do you love so much that can't be turned on for ixCoin to make you happy?

That's what I meant.  

The only bad thing about ixCoin was the unfair launch and the dev leaving but that's all water under the bridge And the coin is at half a cent while other lesser much newer coins with way more coins outstanding are selling for way more so ixCoin has paid the price.  Time to move on and if you think it sucks or you don't trust it don't buy it.

And there's one more thing which lead me to believe this coin would be ok and it wouldn't get killed of and the fact the founder came back is a first and confirms my theory.  But you're a cynic and perhaps for good reason but that means you're probably agnostic so this part won't impress you much but there is something - quite a bit to it actually but I can't prove it.

ix = 9 = 9Coin.

[jackjack]

No, it's an actual question. Would it be better in your opinion?

All I say is that I find strange to say that a coin which have 0 innovation, a creator who left for 1+ year, and a huge premine, is the best one.
Also, this is not 'water under the bridge' because the guy still have the premine.

[Vlad2Vlad]

Correction on the bitcoin ETF.  For every 5 shares of the ETF the fund goes out and buys 1 bitcoin.

But that's still a killer ratio.  These ETF's can attract easily hundreds of millions of dollars and if there's a little media hype and there will be or if funds start buying some as a speculative move or to game the coin which is what wallstreet does then billions can go into Bitcoin which is simply mind boggling given there's less than 12 million coins.  

It's gonna get really really exciting very soon around here.  I just wish I'd get my mining equipment already so I can get a few bitcoins before the show starts.

Ok, if you're serious I'll address it.

First, the premine was Mickey Mouse, like 560,000 coins.  It's chump change, it's like $3,000.  Look at freicoin or feathercoin, oh please, 80% of the coins mined goes to them.  Oh, for charity but just not yet and they pick the charity.  90% of all devcoins goes to the founder who then distributes them to developers.  That's great but you and me have no idea how many coins goes to the number 1 developer: the founder.

Lol, and they're selling for way more (besides devcoin).

Look at ripple. Auto printed 100 billion coins and 50 billion is kept by the founders to do with as they please.

All of a sudden a paltry 560,000 premine is jack.  And the guy is giving these coins out already to people helping with the program so as far as I'm concerned it done.

The fact he came back to a coin that's not worth anything when he could just have easily stated another coin says a lot.  He must see potential otherwise why waste your time.

So besides that bad start ixCoin is a great coin man.

And the features, besides namecoin's specialization you can turn on any feature with a hard fork.  So you can change the way ixCoin is mined so it doesn't waste energy like bitcoin although all the mining for ixCoin will be done in a few years so add that as a positive.  

Another positive is that in a few years the only way to get ixCoins is to buy them as the mining will all be done and the low float is a big deal, when demand outstrips supply that's when the price shoots up.  And you have coins like frei or feather with like 400 million coins.  Ripple with 100 billion.

21 million total coins and most are being held by investors or miners means if there's any kind of spike in demand the price will hit $1 so fast, I'm talking under 30 days.  IxCoin is a great coin to speculate on for just half a penny a coin.  It has really good potential.  

Just put $500 in it.  That will buy you more than double what I bought or almost 100,000 coins.  That would make you a .5% holder.  That's no joke if this thing does take off. It can make a person a millionaire overnight.

[Vlad2Vlad]

And stop with the innovation.  If people bought coins on innovation PPcoin would be $100 and bitcoin would be 20 cents.  But it's not and most of that innovation can be turned on with any coin via a hard fork so its not some innovation that's a deal breaker.

Trust me, when investors come looking for what coin to buy they're not gonna care about innovation cause it doesn't add any real value.  But they will care a lot about the number of coins outstanding because that is a direct function of how fast a coin can go up.  Stock investors use the float as a major metric. It's definitely in the top 3.

Right now you can buy ixCoin for way less than the energy cost to mine it.  And lets not talk about he expensive mining gear.  That's a other plus as is for devcoin - it's like buying a car for less than the cost for the labor to build it and on top of it the parts are free.  At half a cent per coin, if you have money to risk ixCoin is an absolute steal.  And so is devcoin.  Most of the other coins I wouldn't buy I would just mine them.  Way better deal.

[Vlad2Vlad]

I've read on here there's guys who specialize in helping people take their coin live.  Does anybody have any idea how to find these people?

I have over 100 domain names locked up for various coins but I don't have much money and I can't program.  I really wanna launch a coin with a large following to see how that works since until now nobody has done that which is odd.

I have coin names such as CatholicCoin, 007Coin, WolfCoin, UnicornCoin, MormonCoin, 21Coin, 69Coin (LOL, it was just too easy), 1StopCryptoShop, OneStopCryptoShop, ScientologyCoin, BlackJackCoin, FutbolCoin, SoccerCoin, BasketballCoin, GermanyCoin, ItalyCoin, RomaniaCoin, etc and many more.  

Some of these might be cheesy but they would all get attention from niche players and some would have downright millions of built-in fans and loyal followers.

 I don't know why all of these developers chose names nobody ever heard of as most people will automatically buy a coin they're familiar with.  That's a huge advantage and if you can get a coin just to go to $1 you can make millions and it doesn't take a large following to get a $1 coin as long as you do a fair launch and you don't pump and dump.

I'm looking for a long term thing here but I need help.  I've got a thing running on gofundme.com but no donations yet.  Not enough people know about these coins yet and I don't want to wait a year cause way too many coins will be out by then and it will be much harder to get noticed.

Right now my number 1 pick to launch is CatholicCoin.com.  

What's up with the .org thing with crypto coins?  Isn't dot com still the best choice?  I also bought the dot org names too but only cause that seems to be the trend but I don't get why.  It's a waste of money but I wanted to lock these big names in.

Anybody interested?  

[jackjack]

Oh
Wow

Ok you won, I don't have the time to read that much
Heil Ixcoin

[jubalix]

out of interest, how similar is ixcoin to bte?

[Vlad2Vlad]

BTC you mean?

It's Identical.  It's just made to mature much faster.  I think all 21 million coins will be mined by like 2016 or 2017.  Otherwise it's identical to bitcoin.  Exactly my reasoning - soon lots of investors are gonna be looking for a coin just like bitcoin and ixCoin is a clone with all the coins now.

[FuzzyBear]

ok back on topic.... i'm sure me and another dev i am working with will prob be up for looking into the client update as we are about to launch a MM pool ... so let me know if there is anyone else working on this and where source code is etc... not saying that we can def do this but the bounty is an attraction and the client needs to be stable and up to date imo for the coin to continue to be MM successfully.

no I mean BTE = ByteCoin

it was a BTC clone 1:1

BTE is a clone of BTC... though it can not be merge mined i believe without a hard fork... but i may be wrong on that

Ixcoin is such a worthy altcoin, and one of the older ones with an intact block chain (afaik) that it deserves a better faith then just being forgotten. I am more than willing to have a graphic designer take a look at the logo, website etc. if you would like me to, bounty or not.

Asakioto, pm me if you want to. If not, I'll just have a designer look over the website and graphics and we can go from there.

I'm so glad somebody else sees it.  If I wasn't so new to these coins I'd pitch in some coins but I'm still waiting for my mining rigs to arrive. Much appreciated, man.
