How many altcoins are there out there now?

I had counted around 600 until I gave up about two weeks ago. The number may be slightly skewed, as I was just counting names that I hadn't heard before, and didn't investigate further to find out if some of the coins were jokes and never actually released.

My guess would be between 500 and 700 actually exist or have existed.

How about you post your giveaway thread to cryptogiveaways.com (not up and running yet) and then you link to it from the Alt section? This new forum could be the wild west of giveaways. If anyone is interested in participating PM me.

That's ok, Facebook didn't care that there was MySpace before them when they set out to redefine social networks. But thanks for pointing it out

It's time people move on to cryptocointalk.com and soon lower the traffic of bitcointalk and offload it to cryptocointalk.

I can just imagine future history books: "On January 27, 2014, bitcointalk.org banned giveaways, marking the beginning of Bitcoin's end and LiteRippleObamaCoin's ultimate rise to dominance."

Good News but, Most of users now a days are in alternate coin section only for giveaways, So they will be not coming for this site & they all will go to any new giveaway service forum.

I think this will help the better alt coins, I for one was shameless when I posted to spam threads, I even joked about having rented my user name out for the sake of a coin, never did do it though, I piled up some coins and did a giveaway to gain interest and although the coin was a joke coin my giveaway helped to draw some attention, the giveaway's just get out of control.
I will say alt coins have been a doorway for me to BTC, even some of the free ones I received through giveaway's, and I still think this is a good move, I dont like seeing a developer premining with a giveaway plan and then sitting on thousands or millions of coins with a huge group of people pushing for the coin to gain value, that promotes scam's in my opinion.

I'm here to spam my forum's URL.

http://thisweekscoin.com/forum/index.php <- My personal giveaways / other people's giveaways. ( ThisWeeksCoin Giveaways / Other Giveaways sections )

You can find a ton of coins in the forum.

Is it true what they say on Fox News? Giveaways are coming back?
