The name altcoin is boring

[xspasa]

All coins already have names according to their projects. there is no strange name I see. all normal and acceptable to everyone.

[dodziu]

because altcoins or alternative cryptocurrencies weren't initially created to be shitcoins. at some point in the past the greed became dominant in the market enough to push them towards being shitcoins. otherwise if you look at the early coins in 2010ish you can see the coins were actually trying to do something instead of just being hot air.

Yes, I also with you that some altcoins are scam and they do not really worth investing in but I do not think they should be called that name because they are alternative for bitcoin as they are cheaper. If you take your time to research, you will find very promising ones to invest in.

If Bitcoin's the man of the cryptoworld then all other currencies are his bitches. So why don't we call them bitchcoins instead of alt coins ?

hahah. but dont forget that one of those bitches is going to replace with bitcoin. because bitcoin blockchain is not the best and it is going to loose its power sooner or later and a better one will replace with bitcoin.

Every day have new altcoin with ico system sale, but we find with the unusually name of altcoin, almost of new altcoin have boring name and never try to use interested name for new altcoin. Maybe next time before make an ico project give space for investors to rename the ico altcoin.

[Lattlyined]

It is true that Bitcoin the leading cryptocurrency of the world and that does not make the altcoins to be considered as shitcoin. Because technologically many altcoins have made pretty good progress over Bitcoin.

It will not be so popular with that name I think 
And we should know that some altcoins like Ripple or Stellar are not similar to Bitcoin and it does not deserve the name like that. But it is a very interesting thought.

[Jumbo Crawlers]

well you have the rights to express your feelings but we can't help you about this,  it was up to to the inventor choice what they like to name their coin and we can't demand to change it just like that name is like a brand which helps to have publicity

[Light Cyborgs]

There exist some altcoins which have pretty good features compared to Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency market is an open market and it is important that altcoins take place beside the BTC. This is how people can own crypto at different price.

[steins19]

Actually this not even a good topic to raise but I might as well give my opinion. The fact the BTC is reigning king of Crpyto. I think other term for Altcoins should be named after BTC. But I prefer not to put a double meaning to it. I guess Sub Coins will do.

[Ivraes]

Altcoins have quite important role in the world of cryptocurrency. They give people option to buy cryptocurrency at different price range. Not everyone of the world has the capability to buy BTC at high price.

[Betaa]

all coins other than bitcoin on cryptoworld are called altcoins because their function is as an alternative choice because the price of bitcoin is too high.

[fathur01]

All right, alticini so called because they are an alternative to Bitcoin. I think that at one point some altcoin can really compete with Bitcoin.

[Jaci]

Altcoins full name mean alternative coins. In short altcoin. Why it is boring friend it is your own personal matter. When we all I mean almost all use this word then there is no reason for take it as a name-problem. Remember that if a name comes then come for popular. Altcoin name is already popular. So there is no reason for change it or take it as a boring word.

Not all of the alternative crypto coins are bad, some of them are good but the problem is that there are a lot of shit coins more than the good ones, but the shit coins are very much easy to detect so that’s not a problem. So saying that the altcoins is boring makes no sense to me, cause I don’t see anything boring with that name.

Bitchcoinslike you said is even the worst name, how can you be using such a name as that? In some places online such a name would be censored completely, cause it’s  very bad and doesn’t look professional in any way.

Why am I reading this at all? Why a such topic exists on the forum? Bitcoin Forum thanks to such authors becomes a garbage dump. Think about it ...

[yakushev]

Better name bitcoin and his friends. Technologies are parallel to each other and try to keep up. Let's see what changes will happen in the market further, but so far everything is obvious and not boring.

[modmalaney]

a strange argument I think. bitcoin is indeed becoming the best crypto and this has undergone many upgrades and might even be more than that. but altcoin no less well actually just his appearance late enough so that bitcoin is already too high to be defeated. However, the current development of altcoin was kind enough to follow and even better than bitcoin.

[Mendrofa]

I don't think it's good, altcoin is a good and good name with so many altcoins making the cryptocurrency world great because many people are interested and believe in the crypto world has good potential in the future

[armack18]

This paragraph about coin's names is very interesting and fun but moreover people are not pay much attention for this because name is just a face and inside processes are more significant.

[prosokeslo]

Lol. What do you even mean by the name altcoin is boring. Well if you really think it is, then you can decide to give it another name, and see to it that the industry adopts it. I don't think this is an issue of priority though. There are much more important issues that bothers the people of this industry now, and not some name that they choose to call some group of coins.
