How many types of Altcoin are there?

[trudovik]

There are very, very many projects today that are very well developed and those that do not develop at all, I think that there are more such projects, well, in a couple of years, I think that most of the projects that do nothing just disappear.

Now that there is a lot of Altcoin in the market, do you know how many types it has?

Obviously, there really are quite a lot of types of crypto currencies or altcoins out there and the number is increasing. Now, without someone keeping track of how fast the numbers are increasing for us, it will be pretty hard to point out exactly just how much types of altcoins there really are here in the crypto world. But still, it is really possible for anyone to know if he does take the time and effort to really look at all the coins out there if he is really curious. which is clearly pretty taxing for anyone.

I think there is only one kind of altcoin. Btc, Eth, Lite, all of these coins and other coins are all cryptocurrencies. There is no such thing as a classification of a specific coin. They all use blockchain technology and i would say that the only difference between these coins is their value. One coin is not special compared to other because they are all the same, the only contradiction that separates them is the consistency of its value.

Altcoins appear every day and just disappear,but not all of them are of what value. According https://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/ there are now 1524 altcoins.

I don't know the exact numbers of altcoins. Maybe we should base on the coins which are registered on the coinmarketcap. Their numbers is continuosly growing because there are still ongoing ICOs and cryptocurrency is now becoming more popular all over the world.

Now that there is a lot of Altcoin in the market, do you know how many types it has?

I never counted it, I think pretty much maybe thousands of coins, in marketcap alone there are 1594 altcoin. the number of very many, even impossible to find out all. and most altcoins have no future, even left by the developers

Now that there is a lot of Altcoin in the market, do you know how many types it has?

I would share the altcoins by the consensus mechanisms that they use. There are already a great number of consensus algorithms, I will not disclose their theoretical part, I'll give just examples.
1. Proof Of Work / PoW (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Monero, ZCash, Dogecoin, etc).
2. Proof of Stake / PoS (VCash, BitBay, Peercoin, Qtum, Stratis, etc).
3. Proof of Stake Time / PoST (Vericoin).
4. Delegated Proof Of Stake / DPOS (Steemit, EOS, BitShares).
5. TAPOS.
6. dBFT (NEO).
7. BFT (Hyperledger, Stellar, Dispatch, and Ripple).
8. Proof Of Activity (Ethereum Kovan).
9. Proof Of Burn (Slimcoin).
10. Proof of Weight (Algorand, Filecoin, Chia).
11. Proof of Capacity.
12. Proof of Storage (SC).
13. Proof of Checkpoint / PoC.
14. Proof of Importance (NEM).
15. Directed Acyclic Graphs (Iota, Hashgraph, Raiblocks/Nano).

there are a thousands of tokens in markets like coin market cap so definitely coins are should have many types by its own criteria so you can check it in markets and count it so you can find any disadvantage of any coins that they have.

Crypto currencies as currency like bitcoin litecoin dashmonero and there is programing fuel Ethereum NEO and like Crypto currencies solving current problems gambling token and Supporting coins support others coin sometimes 1coin belong to more than 1 categories and  voting and related activities this is will enable the immutable tracking of voting by an individual and relies on identification being a part of the block chain world and there is also Information Technology coins and  Social and Media

[Bitcoinage_official]

Really depends how you define a type. If you consider a privacy coin like Monero to be a different "type" as a true currency like bitcoin then the possibility of an almost infinite amount of types exists as there will always be another sector or branch any individual coin could be in.

There are thousands of altcoins available in the usage and many of them being launched everyday so you can go to coinmarketcap and see how many altcoin available there.But now people using crypto currency as an money making tool not as currency.

[AntoCokbun]

if you mean the amount of bitcoin in the market then the answer is very much, because every day there will be a new coin coming and many coin are removed, so the amount of altcoin will not be stable.

it is true even more days this number will increase, not to mention there are coins that have branches such as bitcoin so since then sometimes the market can not follow this and the effect is the mass price reduction I think every coin does not need to make its branch because it will be very harmful to the coin

Now that there is a lot of Altcoin in the market, do you know how many types it has?

There several altcoins out there which no body can really give the appropriate number, if you wish to use CMC, that may give you a wrong figure because new altcoins are surfacing on dailly basis, there are many of them that are yet to be listed on CMC.

[altcoinhunter01]

There is a huge list of altcoins available in the market.You can get all listed altcoins information on coinmarketcap as mostly all altcoins available on their platform.

there is a lot altcoin out there and i would say its too much to remember all of them. just buy coin in top 100 - top 200 other coin might be just a useless coin that dont have a future at all.

I like air drops, but I learned about them recently. This is an excellent alternative to the subscription campaign.
Taking the opportunity, I can advise a great air drop. You can receive 20,000 Marinecoins daily, simply by writing a post about Marinecoin.
The coin is unique in history, surpassing the capitalization of bitcoins!

The project is reborn.
Now the coin is already traded on the stock exchange (true at home, but this is only the beginning).
Now happens fair distribution (with proof of promotion), with the aim of expand the community.
The coin will have many technologies and extensions ahead (dev-less, self sustaining, machine to machine, artificial intelligence).
Therefore, I believe that it will gain value in the future.
More details can be found after the end of the distribution.
