What makes a altcoin valuable

[lekegami]

What gives altcoins value is the idea that you can make trades with them and make profit. Most people who understands the system would cling to that idea. And so these people who makes up the community would faithfully engage in trading activities which builds up value for a certain alt.

Theres a lot of reason how can altcoin makes valuable like for example if the project attract more people to patronize their project it can make project alive and if the altcoin have a high chance to boom in the future because of active developer and awesome technology that will click in the market.

Idea, hype. It's important not to create some narrowly directed project with no use worldwide or something specific that is not aimed at an ordinary user. Some guys already work in such a direction, so you might wanna watch and think something of yourself

Based on what I have read and know, altcoins gains value depending on the technology that backs it and the market cap set by its develops. Obviously, when it has a good technology, more people would actually be convinced to invest in it.

Making any thing expensive or valuable the best contribution is its technologies and companies.Altcoin value is based on blockchain's stability.But now,this time it becomes more popular.

I don't know, discussed it above. But dogecoin has become valuable due to the small fees. This is its value. Conclusion, why your coin?

I think the most valuable property is the availability of its own blockchain, which was developed from zero.Such coins are very expensive.

Crypto currency is defiled over time. This is influenced by the constant growth of world production and its limited volume in the market. Thus, it generates demand, which determines the price of the crypto currency.

Altcoin become valuable base on its blockchain's stability. Many altcoins exist without a value because it does'nt have a strong support of blockchain.
If each coin become connected to bitcoin's blockchain, then it would now supported by bitcoin. That will be the start of having value of altcoins.

In my opinion the community gives it value. As it is with every currency, if its not used and accepted by the people there is no value in it. Same goes for gold. After all that is also just a metal, if people decided to value iron more and do use that as a store of value that is commonly accepted, this maybe would be todays precious "gold".

[sjadn12912999]

The way to create an altcoin with some value is mostly the idea behind the coin, what will it be used for and is the business model either unique or proven successful. It will also need to have a large and supportive community behind it, people that are either willing to invest the time to work for airdrops and setup master nodes or people that will contribute with funds during an ICO.

[Judeoou]

An altcoin will always be valuable and superlative, if it has a good and genuine road map and a working product to show for it.

[jankole14]

A coin is valuable because many people want it. Then your job is just to make your coins much desired.

You can get value from the following things:
Your product is really needed by people;
You have a big community, which is ready to support your idea;
And may be attention from media to your project.

I think the big help is to listed your coin in a big exchanger like Bittrex, Binance, Poloniex etc. Because big crypto traders are there especially for those whales groups and you need to get a great investor plus always have community groups to help success of your coin.
