People say scalability but I always see it as the ideal problem for a coin to have, just as Bitcoin has had over the years - without the problem of scalability, there is little external push for technological progress. If Bitcoin capacity were never tested, we might have not seen SegWit or Lightning Network arrive so quickly, for example.
thinking of the reasons behind the success of the minable coins like bitcoin that has no other function then a decentralised currency. Is it the quantity, security, halfing period and amount, or else.
What could be the best features we can have in a minable coin.? I am not asking for additional features, but according to you what is the best settings to introduce another bitcoin like coin.
It's not about the features.It's about the team of developers and the "tribe" of supporters that make a coin strong,secure and valuable.You can have a genius consept or a briliant idea,but without a good team behind you,your ideas and plans are nothing.
Exactly. At a technical level, most coins are "superior" to Bitcoin but let's face it. The majority of Bitcoin users couldn't ever tell the difference between blockchains, except perhaps perceived levels of speed and cost (and if users move to an alt it is generally because of these two).
I've seen technologically inferior coins with perhaps less mature blockchains, less robust scaling and security, yet have a community firmly behind them and willing to go to great lengths to use them - take Dogecoin as the almost eternal example.
