The majority of Alts have sprung from the Bitcoin protocol and each coin should include a sub-section, if possible.
No, ALL sprung from the bitcoin protocol. Take a look for yourself: http://mapofcoins.com/You want these to have subforums of their own you say?

Just my opinion, I think Alt-coins are a part of Bitcoin and should be included in the forum. The majority of Alts have sprung from the Bitcoin protocol and each coin should include a sub-section, if possible.
They already have their own subsections. All crapcoins have their own thread which is enough. They don't need anything more. Surely we can't actually have sub forums for every single one of the several hundreds alts.

So you just want shut down the most successful subforum? 1202227 Posts Successful or utter garbage? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=361813.18840One page , 6 posts advertising mining pools. Since the alt section is having a mining sub forum , are those posts considered spam?

man, messy doesnt even begin to explain it mate. Everyday there's a new ico / coin / whatever which pops up. Imho, they belong in the investor based section as the chances of losing money is extremely high in these schemes.

Alt coin section of this forum can not be removed. EVER. So you can close this thread.
Sure it can Whether it should is another question. The absolute majority of the many Global Mods, Mods, Staff and Users that wanted the Altcoin Section gone. With the impending launch of the new forum maybe this is a subject that needs to be re-visited. It's time for the Altcoins to be kicked to the curb and establish their own community. ~BCX~ Lol. Necro from Beyond Uranus. 2 years+ & counting and OP was *still* sore & raw from having cluelessly lost money on an altcoin pump in 2013 ;]]

Seriously, I think BCX was doing some sort of necro-bump experiment today, I saw some other year old dead threads just resurrected by him. I dunno why tho.

My opinion if it matters though just let the Alt section exist in the forum after all those coins are still considered crypto currency. If it weren't for the section, users may not have learned about those coins exist. Lol. Necro from Beyond Uranus.

Why create a new thread for the same topic? If I did Lauda would have to retreat to his safe space to deal the anxiety of a duplicate thread. Yes it is time to push the Alts to their own forum. There's no upside to Bitcoin to host them here. ~BCX~

Just to be clear.
I am not saying there should be no alts.
I am saying Alts need their own forum, off this site.
Close the Alt sub form and force the change.
~BCX~
This won't be a wise action. As it has been rightly said, the alt section generates a lot of traffic to the forum, creating a separate forum will considerably reduce the traffice to bitcointalk and that is not good for signature campaigns if you catch my drift

Yeah, if the Alt section goes away I would likely stop visiting this site very often. What probably should happen is that a few top currencies get their own sub-sections though. It seems silly at this point to lump Ethereum and Monero in with things like BBQCoin and NEM. I think that the top 7 to 10 currencies on CoinGecko should be considered for having dedicated subsections.

Why do you care about a forum you are not interested? Just don't go in there, don't read. Let people do whatever they like. I also don't visit altcoin forums but i don't give a damn about cheated people or scams going on there. Everybody has his/her own mind to decide.
To me all of maybe most of the altcoins are pump&dump scam/ponzi activity, maybe except litecoin, but it also pumped&dumped&scammed people heavily a while ago, it is stable since then.
Litecoin brought the speed which bitcoin lacks. That's all. There shouldn't be anycoins after litecoin.

Do you believe that a worldwide currency can succeed when everyone can look into everyone else's account and transactions at any time? Obviously not - more advanced and robust blockchains are necessary. 0, 1, or infinity. You don't get to draw the line at 'two'.

It's nice to have all the shit-coins in one part of the forum. If it wasn't there, they would spam all the other sections. I'm all for shit coins having their own little corner so I can ignore it.

Yeah, One cannot simply become completely anonymous while using bitcoin i guess. While it is not completely possible to know who owns which accounts, you can track every accounts balance and movements. On the other hand, that can also be good for people. It makes it easier to track down hacked coins. Don't you agree?

If the altcoin section was removed, the forum will lose some of it's income. Besides, the section is used to not make the forums cluttered with the wrong cryptocurrency.

If all citizens had to wear mandatory body cameras that were accessible by the police, that would make it easier to track down criminals. It could be good for people. Don't you agree?

In soviet russia every car got a camera which records everything while you drive. It's forced by insurance companies. Because of that whatever happens, they will always know who is responsible for the accident. Isn't it a good thing? If bitcoin were completely anonymous then how you gonna track scammers?
