What will happen to your favorite alt-coin?

[ANiceJewishBoy]

I have just read that Gamecoin offers coins for Minecraft (probably a better payout than BTC servers) and porn coin pays for porn reviews.

This isn't even the future, it's happening NOW.

Devcoin -Development, Coding and Writing
Tagcoin - Rewards
Gamecoin - Gaming Payment
Porncoin - Porn Watching Payment

Plus mcxnow offers interest like a bank on your Bitcoins and Devcoins (and a few miner coins). BTC is moving forward.

We are fairly new on the market, but we are already finding that people are willing to earn coins in different ways. We started a couple of days ago giving away TagCoin to those who referred others to our site. To avoid spamming the system we are adding mobile verification to avoid spammers and bots.

We've now enabled a community to offer coin rewards in their choice of coin, for internal actions within Tagbond (Join the community, refer a friend to join, or write a review). We will shortly add the ability to offer rewards based on what actions a user does on an external website, using a small bit of javascript and our API (actions are onClick and onLoad so far). You can decide to use the mobile verification or not.

In addition to the rewards actions on our site or other sites, anyone can create marketing modules (Tagverts) - mini shopping carts, coupons, loyalty stamps, competitions, auctions and more. So altcoins can be used in these ways:

- Give rewards to the customer for using a Tagvert (ie: buy a meal at a restaurant using coins as discount method), or give coins to a user to actually go to the restaurant to eat.
- Sell items via the site for alt coins
- Give alt coins as referral fees to people who share their Tagverts on  facebook, blogging sites, websites, or in person.

We have added a few altcoin types into the system, and will add more - the end result is that we want to make crypto currencies used more in the real world, as a rewards currency that people will want to then spend on other things.

Merchants need customers, customers want to spend their rewards with merchants - the system should appeal to both sides of the coin..

This is awesome. We need more community support coins!!! (the more reasons we can think to make coins, the more people will come to bitcoin)

Sexcoin has a couple of different ways to get coins without buying or mining. Its part of our 'revamp' philosophy. You can earn SXC by watching and reviewing Adult films, or by writing erotica. And there's more in the works.

Take a look at the OP: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=252896. ( Unless it offends your sensibilities. )

[digitalindustry]

But what about when Bitcoin is being considered by people in poverty as a means to pull themselves up by their boot straps? What about when it is being talked about in every highschool in the country, and kids too young to work and not computer literate enough to mine want to get them?

The answer will be "Alt-coins".

I don't follow.  Where does the real-world wealth come from?  What will those pull-up-by-their-own-bootstraps people be doing that makes the world a better place and makes them wealthier?

I suspect you might be confusing "money" with "wealth."

+1

Hey , someone understands "economics and technology", they say thats rare.

Agreed but , if BTC is having this primary effect the details out laid are rather redundant,  because I can just answer

 " wealthy uncle " will hand down...etc.

But it has to come from somewhere. 

[digitalindustry]

While im on my NSA style "violation" the all seeing , "a nice Jewish boy"  you wouldn't be a certain recently wealthy (and worthy of praise according bto btcx)  exchanges 51%+ owner , generally talking his book for alts : D  if so its a solid effort , really.

[rampalija]

Well yes, the time of the alts is yet to come. I'm putting my hopes up in CGB and MEC.

Me too

Devcoin yes, the other 3 are crap.

They may be "crap" now, but they are the only coins that meet the standards of being "new". Most coins are just clones that are not in any way different from Bitcoins.

These coins offer alternatives to mining, instantly making them more useful to the world than most altcoins.

any coin can implement their features at any time. Guess why this isn't happening..sigh

LOL

If it's not happening, then why are there 4 coins that do it now?

Seems like it's happening to me, you just don't want to recognize the coins as anything more than shit because you can not see them for what they are.

And any coin that implements these kinds of features in the future, will have the ability to get people to join from OUTSIDE of the cryto world. Right now altcoins are trapped inside the Bitcoin community. Altcoins need to get out from under BTC thumb, so they can help BTC.

[tagbond]

The interest in Bitcoin and other alt coins, and in earning them in a way other than mining is much more of an incentive at the moment than just giving money, as we are finding at Tagbond Rewards. People want to earn a few coins to see what it is all about - people like my mother for example..:-)...They may not know too much about the technical aspects of coins, but they do want to have a few and play with the new technology. So the whole crypto market should take advantage of this while the interest is there and push coins out to play with, or use in the real world for things other than just an investment. Sooner or later it will really go mainstream and then the world will truly learn the benefits of this new tech. We are working on making this happen, not only with our own TagCoin, but with any coin that wants to become part of the system, and be used for rewards, e-commerce etc. We've built a platform that doesn't cost anything to use - our model is based around a pay only on results version of google adsense.

So, create a community on Tagbond, give rewards out in coins of your choice for joining that community, inviting others to join and write reviews for you, create marketing modules (tagverts) that give some benefit to the customer and perhaps getting them to spend coins on whatever you have to offer, and you have created your own system that turns an alt coin into a currency, not just a commodity. Help us create a powerful eco system to push crypto forward and be accepted by everyone.

Nice post. I am definitely going to be getting into this.

only devcoin other 2 garbage

i only hope my altcoin price will rise

[ANiceJewishBoy]

In addition to my suggestion of school based and community coins for groups or businesses...

Imagine if instead of other forums hating on coins (It's basically taboo on most forex forums, and other forums to mention coins and tell people to buy them) , it became a trend on the internet for forum owners to come here and find coin creators, then get coins created for their forum.

What if we had a trend of FORUM based coins. Kinda like how this forum is based on bitcoin, so it exploded. If a forum with millions of daily hits (say...GaiaOnline, since it is a major forum that already uses coins, and has a largely non-bitcoin crowd as of now) started a 50% mine-able, limited production coin (instead of the coin they have now which you earn for doing things on the site, but can not be taken off the site, and is like WoW gold instead of bitcoins). That coin would probably be the most popular altcoin OVER NIGHT.

We just need to realize that altcoins are never going to over take bitcoin, all they can hope to do is support it.

[tagbond]

Your altcoin will only rise in price if it is used - the principle of Velocity of Money - it becomes valuable if it changes hands a lot, the more it does, the more value it has. Alt Coins cannot survive purely on the speculative hope that maybe they may rise in value to that of BitCoin - that train has already left the station. So do your part and get it in use..get your friends, relatives and anyone you know to take your choice of altcoin in exchange for something or doing something of value..

Why it isn't happening? Because on a technical scale it's not worth anyone's time, poor little features for children and old people.

It IS happening. There are 4 coins that do it. So your point is invalid.

Can you rephrase this? I'm confused about what exactly you are asking.
They buy them because they see value in the mining community. I am not suggesting that mining communities are obsolete, I am suggesting that they will change in the near future to accommodate others.

Agreed, the main thing that alters the price of coin. Altcoins AND Bitcoin, is what the public has been told about them recently, and how widespread the announcement was.

Ex: Recent explode comes from Chinese BTC TV broadcast + Canada getting a BTC ATM

This is not a "market" (in the exact sense of the stock market or forex) yet. It is a new resource that the world has yet to discover (for the most part). It is A LOT like forex, but a completely undervalued and underused version, and that room for growth means EVERYTHING.
