Which Alt Coin you like best

[Vlad2Vlad]

So many people assume LTC will be Bitcoin 2.0 which is a great contrarian indicator saying, with high probability, that LTC will NOT be the next Bitcoin and most likely it will be a coin most would never expect:  such as ixCoin. 


I seriously doubt more than 20 people on this planet are currently actively accumulating ixCoin.  And I am one of them which makes me effing special!


The upcoming Bitcoin ETF should be a massive catalyst for all alt coins which should also bring about the next and new LTC.  LTC may hit $30 on the Bitcoin ETF but 1,000% is nothing compared to what you can make if you do choose the next LTC or BTC.

SXC is going to be BTC 2.0. Is the only coin that is working with a 16 billion dollars industry: the porno industry

You may be right.  That's why I bought some Gamecoin, even though Gamecoin is seen as a dead or dying coin.  There is so much that can be done with these coins which have generic but very mass appeal names. They just need some marketing and funding, and if Bitcoin gets its ETF that should happen.

I don't support propagating more trash thru our society but i may have to pick up some SXC just as a speculative move.

Thanks for sharing!

That would be a good move.

cryptogenic bullions.
If I heard right the 1 million coins will be mined by the end if this year.
After that there will be a modest 0.5% per year (miners) inflation.
I think that's good enough to be considered a gold standard. (given that even gold is mined)
Either way I think of alts mostly as fun tokens mostly. Hopefully they won't end up hurting bitcoins in the long run.

[Vlad2Vlad]

While bitcoin works like a gold system with an ever increasing value, the inflating nature of liteocin is awesome.

Does not Litecoin share the same deflationary model as Bitcoin? As far as I know the difference is only in number of total coins which is meaningless because of scaling, the faster block generation time which according to different sources makes it more vulnerable to double-spend attacks or more secure, and scrypt that protects against ASICs. Which is again meaningless because the original idea was to let anyone mine on their CPUs and CPU mining is no longer viable. So, could please anyone explain to me the real benefits of Litecoin? I can see none other than it at least has some economy and acceptance.

Precisely my feeling.  LTC is a perfect contrarian coin to avoid.  So many people think it's gonna be the next bitcoin that there are not many new buyers left to drive the price up.

I'd buy some LTC just for spec reasons but I would not focus any real amounts of money on LTC.  It's looking very much overhyped!  The idea is to buy the coins nobody else is buying but which at the same time have a lot of potential.  

For me ixCoin seems to fit the bill near perfectly.  Especially if the bankers get involved:  they'll look for a Bitcoin twin to sell as the next ETF, and I don't know of any coin which fits the Bitcoin mold as nicely as ixCoin.

But I digress....

Wait, wrong thread.  Lol

If you like that coin then you should check out quark since it will stop mining in a few months as well and it's much cheaper.  Granted, quark will have like 270 million total coins, but it's very cheap right now - all things considering.

Thanks for sharing and good luck!

[Vlad2Vlad]

I like DMD because there're only 4.38 mil total... they are really rare compared to other currencies

4.38 million right now or 4.38 million will be the absolute total when it reaches terminal output?

I'm not too familiar with the newer unknown coins.  Thanks for the input, I may have to add some DMD to my spec list!

Once the Bitcoin ETF launches a few of these little known about coins will really take off.  Most are so cheap now that it doesn't take much to accumulate some of the more promising names.  Last week I put nearly 10 BTC in about 14 different coins.  But DMD was not one of them so I'll have to revisit that one.

[Vlad2Vlad]

FTC

why?
because I hold stack of these 

What do you guys consider "a stack" or hoarding?  Is 1% of the final total coins considered hoarding?  So for ixCoin that would be 210,000 coins.  If you think about it, most coins can be hoarded with relatively little money and much more easily if you can mine.

That's a pretty sure way to hit the next big coin when it comes most likely early to mid next year.

They're cheaper partly because there's more of them so...

[Vlad2Vlad]

LTC is the only alt worth holding IMHO because it has 2 Advantages ober Bitcoin

1.) faster confirmation
2.) no ASICs right now

If those are the 2 main reasons you're accumulating LTC then you should know there are a bunch of alt coins right now which beat LTC on both advantages.

Obviously.  I haven't done the math to see if they're cheaper in real terms.  Was just pointing out there's another coin with the same idea of a short mining life.  Should be interesting to see what happens to these coins when they run out of tarmac.

FTC can increase its value most I believe

A lot of people are choosing FTC.  Why?  I mean, I don't see anything really special that stands out.

And come on, Feathercoin?  Doesn't the lack of imagination signal a major red flag?

It's as silly as ShoelaceCoin.  Zero imagination.  Lack of imagination is a deal breaker for me, hence I don't hold even a single feather in my cap.

[Vlad2Vlad]

LTC, because it is more valuable

If that's your rationale then I'm pretty sure you'll like another coin but the name of Bitcoin a lot more.

[Vlad2Vlad]

I promise you PPC will prove to be the greatest investment of your life that you ignored (unless you don't).

Can you give any reasons or rationale?  TIA

I hear about ShoelaceCoin first time, but I know Feathercoin exists. Dunno what is better though

Lola ShoelaceCoin was a joke, just the first silly name that popped in my head.  Which was the point I was trying to make.  I look for some Imagination and originality in the coins I accumulate because I think those are tell-tales of good management and the future of that particular coin.

What is so special about ixCoin im missing?

PPC, because it offers useful innovation.  Instead of coins only being made from mining, coins are also made by every holder of PPC who earns a very small amount of interest on their coins.  This saves electricity by having far less miners, which is environmentally friendly.  It's simple, and a worthy challenger to Bitcoin, more so than any of the other alts.

Soon it's gonna be a rare commodity since mining is gonna end in less than 18 months.

1) Difficulty is rising at a faster rate than Bitcoin due to all the new ASICS merge mining, making ixCoin very hard to mine with each passing day.

2) Benefit over Bitcoin is that all 21 million coins will be on the market which gives ixCoin more liquidity than Bitcoin or a Bitcoin ETF which is a much needed feature for an ETF.

3) Fully Intact block-chain.

4) Old school coin, one of the very first coins which has survived and is well recognized.

5) The closest existing alt coin to a Bitcoin including the name of the founder.


So what does all this mean?  Well, if you don't believe in the Bitcoin ETF then not much but if you think the Bitcoin ETF is coming soon then you have to presume wallstreet, bankers, speculators and hedge funds will look to start another ETF using a different coin or a basket of alt coin or most likely both.

Now looking at all the alt coins, if you were a banker trying to sell another ETF like bitcoin wouldn't you choose a coin which very closely resembles Bitcoin in order to give your ETF the best odds of success?  It's like Samsung copying everything about the iPhone, people buy that which they recognize.  

This happened in 1994 with the first Internet stock fund.  They all laughed at first (just like they're laughing at the first Bitcoin ETF now) but once that fund blew up all the bankers were scrambling to start new Internet funds which of course created a massive dot com boom and bubble.

The same thing will happen here I think and if it does then ixCoin is the best absolute candidate for the reasons I mentioned above.   And the coming Bitcoin and alt coin bubble should be massive, bigger and more volatile than the Tech/Internet bubble of the 90's.


Needless to say I've bought more than 1% of ixCoin over the past 2 months. I may buy more but it's getting pretty hard to accumulate right now.  Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut but it's too exciting to see these new developments, especially in regard to the Bitcoin ETF.

Good luck!
