PPC has been around forever (crypto time) and it is a dying coin. NXT doesn't really draw my interest. BC can bump both out of the way fast. This coin will rise faster than anyone can believe... wait and see!

Don't kid yourself that BC has - or will ever have - anything approaching the network effect that Bitcoin or litecoin do.

Unless you're trying to sell rap albums, this kind of marketing is not going to be adopted by any business.

I don't particularly like NXT, but NXT or PPC will bury this coin from superior marketing alone.

Yet a coin after a dog has a community of over 100,000 members? Hmmm.....

Let's go to 1000000 satoshi nothing can resist to BC


Whoa Smiley A huge price you are suggesting - I wish it will be even higher but it is not really possible.
How is that not possible? A price of .01 BTC is easily achievable in a year or two. Although it may be a long shot, if the BlackCoin community continues to produce such innovative ideas, we may see the price of BC surpass BTC in our lifetime.

That is only possible if BC has like 5 times the marketcap of BTC because of the amount of coins in circulation.

True...but it is possible. We are basing everything on the current landscape. What happens when more people find out about crypto-currencies? Also, all it takes is one or two significant events to make the value go through the roof.

For BC to hit that value a few things will have to happen.

1.) A few well known merchants will have to accept BC.
2.) We will have to conitnue to get the attention of the mainstream media.
3.) The devs will have to remain active and keep innovating.
4.) The community will have to continue to grow at a consistent rate.

Eventually there will be a coin that will knock BTC off the #1 spot, it is inevitable. So why can't it be BC?

My feelings exactly. Bitcoin cannot be used for micro transactions, its too slow, so it may survive as a banks "crypto" currency, but for the general public, something like BlackCoin is perfect. Some coin has to take this slot, and BlackCoin checks all the boxes for me Smiley

I do not know what part of the world you live in, but here in the United States anyone with more than a day of marketing experience would laugh at your comment. Fortune 500 companies would and have used that kind of marketing. I can point you to thousands of print ads and commercials that capitalize on "ethnicity". Where have been been the past two decades?

NXT doesn't really draw my interest. BC can bump both out of the way fast

If I could find a grain of logic in that statement I'd actually consider ploughing some more money into BC.

NXT is a 2nd generation crypto. It's Blackcoin on steroids. There actually exist solid business reasons for buying NXT other than using it as a currency or speculation. Saying that BC can "Bump" it out of the way belies about as much understanding of this market as a road sweeper does of civil engineering.

No one in their right mind would dump NXT for Blackcoin because even if it doesn't succeed as a currency, there are a ton of other viable business models for it.

BlackCoin is working it's way up to mid-9,500 area before Blackout Wednesday.

When those press releases hit tomorrow, sub 10k might be a distant memory Smiley

I read your posts and you always make valid points. However, in this case you are not taking into account the "hype" or "marketing" factor. I am not going to debate which coin is better than the other, that is a waste of keystrokes. The crypto-wars are not going to be decided by features, they will be decided by which dev team can market better. The iPad and the iPhone are not nearly as good as various products being released right now. However, sales are still strong because of the "hype" factor.

You can't discount the fact BC went from 500 to 9000 in less than 2 months with very little hype or marketing. Once the marketing ramps up I agree with others many coins will get knocked out of the way.

On which Law do you refer?

The law that says it's easier to gain "network effect" when there's 2 competitors than when there's 2000.


I don't see 2000. The only "competitors" I see are the 18 positions ahead of us on coinmarketcap.com (including NXT). That's all.

Really folks. A quick look at history will show that ALL of the many car manufacturers after Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler just couldn't survive. The Big three had all the 'network effect' and nobody other than them could make and sell a new car. I read that the Japanese tried, but they failed miserably. Take a look outside today and you will not see a single Japanese car. Anywhere. Even in Japan. The Germans had a couple good ideas too, but they all failed. In fact (thank god) the main reason they lost the war was that they couldn't make cars well enough, or sell them to anyone.
Wink

Very nice analogy. Love it  Smiley
edit: and Koreans failed as well.

Yeah you're right about those Koreans. They tried and failed with cars, and then they tried to make cell phones instead, but nobody bought those either. Really, after Motorola and Nokia...there just was no possibility.

So for you KIA is a faillure? LOL they have a very big market in Europe and the only ones offering 7 years warranty

I don't think that is going to make squat difference to the value of the coin, at least in the long term. Dogue had massive marketing appeal but it's been on a permanent 45 degree angle trajectory towards zero for the best part of 2 months now. Every now and then there's an attempt to resurect it with a big buy in which last about 24 hours before going back down like a lead ballon.

The most interesting thing about Blackcoin is the multi-pool concept and the effect this is going to have on the market for other coins - specially the ones that fall within Blackoin's targeting policy.

The pool hashrate is now becoming significant. It's not clear how this is going to change the dynamics of the market but I suspect it will have a significant impact that may possibly change the landscape of this sector forever. That doesn't mean that BC will be the sole beneficiary though - it doesn't 'own' the concept of multi-mining even though there's clearly some short term gain to be had.

Some of the koolaid drinkers around here just haven't been around long enough to realise that no coin has the luxury of being sole heir to the Bitcoin legacy but they'll find out soon enough.

Doge has massive inflation right now, that's why it is dropping. It could not sustain that kind of growth, not because it was not marketed correctly, it was. Currently the market is saturated with high inflation/premine/ipo coins with poor distribution, blackcoin offers the option to opt out of the current crypto dogma.

5.) A celebrity wearing a blackcoin t-shirt?

Maybe???

Smiley The press release is just the tip of the iceberg. Over the next few weeks and month BC will be all over the place.

How much does it costs to let a celebirty tweet about blackcoin?

First you say; Multipools are not innovation. They are life support..
NOW you say; The most interesting thing about Blackcoin is the multi-pool concept and the effect this is going to have on the market for other coins - specially the ones that fall within Blackoin's targeting policy.

YOU WIN!. CAN WE JUST MOVE ON...?
