Rise of the Altcoins!

[CoinBuzz]

After litecoin difficulty rise, i'm looking at WDC these days

[carlb007]

For me sexcoin is the best bet. There is a bit of marketing behind which could make it skyrocket + it's one of the most profitable compare to ltc these days
others could be florin, junkcoin, ...

The only 2 ive seen that looks to be doing anything are sexcoin and doge (there maybe others i dont have time to read up on 300 different alts)
Doge because of its community push on reddit and twitter. Sexcoin because of what the devs are trying to do, the fact you can buy shit with it and the potential stowed away.
I know theyre 'all clones' and anyone could be used for the same purpose but thats my feelings. The rest seem to have no market or physical worth outside of cryptsy which to me is retarded in the long run. I have no idea what junkcoin even is but with that name i would never no go near it and wont bother to even read up on it.
Edit - also keeping an eye on worldcoin but im not on board with that yet.

Looking forward to see the altcoins in 2014, esp Doges!

So what altcoins are the next big thing? :|

All the altcoins will exceed their most recent highs of the past month, so look at the present price and compare to recent high to get best return.

Florincoin FLO: because it hasnt been pumped and dumped ever, I has 528 messaging system to allow colorcoins.org and twitter encrypted messages. Mac and windows wallet too
GME: because they are good at marketing low market cap: Mac and windows wallet too
EZY: low float, low market cap

If it has a low market cap I am a bull. Sxy was just pumped and dumped.

You are preaching to the choir. Nonetheless, Welcome to the wonderful world of altcoins. Best of luck in this growing market.

The Math is staggering how undervalued these are.

.1 BTC would buy 1000 of them all... and any one of them could go to or above LTC prices...

0.1 BTC would only buy 30 FRK

Is the market cap on that under $500,000?

I would go for the following coins in this order:

Peercoin
Primecoin
Anoncoin
Quark
Tagcoin
YAcoin
Diamond

Criteria are:

- Innovative
(e.g. Peercoin/Tagcoin/Yacoin/Diamond have Proof of Stake, Primecoin serves science what gets it decent marketing, Anoncoin has the "anonymous feature", Quark might be the most interesting CPU coin)

- No Premine

- Active development team

[digicoin]

Vote for Diamond, a combination between PoS and PoW, creative diff adjustment, transaction message

Really just buy whatever and check back in 2 years...

Well, problem is: If there's 1 new altcoin every day you have to keep buying. Only a low percentage of them will even make it to something reasonable (or even overtake Bitcoin, it's possible of course), but the others will go away at some point during your 2 years.

It's very tempting, but just simply buying a little of all of them isn't going to cut it, because the 80% failures will eat the profit of your 20% profitable ones. You'll need to do research and evaluate the fundamentals, apply your personal preferences and then only buy the promising ones... much work. And then your analysis needs to turn out to be more right than wrong.

Hate to break it to everyone with $$$-signs in their eyes: there's no free lunch.

EDIT: not to discourage people to invest in alts, just to caution and remind to apply some basic brain functions first.

Well, once everyone wakes up out of this Austrian economics silliness, and gets back to the sanity of contemporary, modern economics and monetary policy accepted by governments and central banks world wide, and based on papers and policies of Nobel Prize winning economists, all of these alts will die and the only thing left will be the Bernankoin. Bernankoin is based on real economic and monetary principles that run the real world. 

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375010.0

If anyone wants any Bernankoins, I'm selling them now at their fair market price of $1 USD for 1 BEK. Bulk discounts for larger orders. Also, until December 31st, 2013, I'm offering a special discount of 6% to account for USD inflation. So, $0.94 USD for 1 BEK. Prices go back to normal in 2014. (NOTE: I will accept USD equivalent in different alt currencies, even though they're all bound to fail because they're all inherently flawed and based on shaky economic principles, unlike the Bernankoin.) (This is just me being nice and trying to help people out.)

Anoncoin has got to be the most under priced alt there is, a great time to invest in ANC!

Of course this question is going to produce nothing more than everyone shilling for their own altcoin, but I would like to mention that it seems StableCoin is extremely unrecognized as it is.

Its mixed transaction service will provide great, decentralized anonymity.

Zerocoin should as well, but that might not be out for months, if not a year.

Yeah I've been following StableCoin, DigitalCoin and WorldCoin as they all have some combination of: active devs, marketable name, innovation and publicity.

Of those it seems WorldCoin is currently doing the best, but I'm really hoping one of the others will start to gain some traction and actually be used for purchasing goods and services.

Will there ever be a day when altcoins won't depend on BTC?

Will there be a day when BTC won't depend on USD?

Invest in REDCOIN.

[odin99]

WHY should we invest in redcoin?

[strunberg]

I don't look at the value of alt's in BTC, I look at them in dollars.

If BTC goes past 10,000 dollars like alot people saying it will,then how much are the  "worthless" alt's are worth each in dollars?

let us say bit coin reaches 50,000 each.
Nova coins are worth 0.01962591 BTC each.

So each Nova coin would be worth about  981 dollars each.
So with ten thousand coins,you would have 9.81 million dollars.

that's with BTC being priced at 50,000 each.  One economist who I can't remember his name says that BTC will reach 700,000 in the future.
At that price,ten thousand  Nova coin would be worth 137,381,370 dollars.
