Trinity of cryptos! bitcoin,litecoin and Dogecoin.

[Nathonas]

Bitcoin and litecoin yes. The third spot...that is really debatable. I suppose by sheer exposure, Dogecoin does fit the bill. But unless it truly identifies itself (as a coin used for various non-profit causes, for example) I don't think it is big enough to join the first two.

In this age of dawn of cryptocurrencies,

a pattern is emerging, based on popularity and public opinion

bitcoin,litecoin and Dogecoin are the Gold,Silver and Bronze of Digital value..

A trinity of cryptocurrency..

Bitcoin, litecoin and Dogecoin...

you didnt catch the recent news re. COINOTRON?  http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/news/warning-litecoin-miners-need-leave-coinotron/2014/05/20

Dogecoin is more like the copper or aluminum of Cryptocurrency. It's no where near the cost of bronze.

the trinity is bitcoin, litecoin, namecoin... (first gen)

everything else is just an altcoin (second gen, script kiddies copy and paste jobs)

unless an altcoin is:
made from 100% new code (every line re-wrote)
has some real world actual purpose beyond a handful of businesses
has some proper purpose beyond a handful of copy and paste dice/gambling games
has some proper purpose beyond being advertised on nascar/sport events purely to coax people to buy coins from holders desperate to sell

then an altcoin is just an altcoin.

dogecoin brings nothing innovative, inspiring or different.

NXT is 100% new code.

uses a new algorithm that doesn't require PoW.

several new features such as a Distributed Exchange and Asset Issuance.

"Popular Opinion" also suggests The Voice is more wholesome entertainment than reading a book,
Walmart is a purveyor of high quality food,
Barack Obama is not a fascist.
 

You ignore namecoin, peercoin, & Primecoin.

agreed nxt is different. but its too early days to align it in the same ranking of bitcoin.. lets wait and see the adoption rate, resources available and usefulness before even attempting to align it as being near bitcoins level.

so lets avoid the speculation of the 'could be great' and wait for the 'proven great'

by the time it's proven it will be impossible(extremely expensive) to buy in.

you dont call something great before its great.
EG you dont call someone a saint before they have done some miricles
you dont call a president the best president ever, before he has even been voted in
you dont call an athlete a record breaker before he broke any records.

so dont try calling doge, nxt great before they have even grown to be great. as thats just speculation, predictions, hype.. not fact

[videos4btc]

Doge is a stupid fad

+1
Dogecoin is a cult coin nothing more.  It will be dead in a year.

[keithers]

I agree with BTC and LTC, I am not fully sold on Dogecoin.   I think there will be another soon that will emerge in the top 3.  Namecoin and Peercoin have been quietly moving along as well. 

There are literally too many coins to keep track of nowadays.   You would seriously need an excel spreadsheet just to remind yourself of the names, the abbreviations, and the differences between them all...

[yayayo]

Bitcoin, Namecoin, and maybe ........the third spot will be a dramatic contest. (FYI: Doge is fun and not dead, just resting)
Sorry LTC, but NMC probably has a brighter future than the lightweight one. I do not "hate" LTC, but NMC has a smaller supply and a unique purpose.

This is a "Bitcoin Discussion" and our beloved BTC is far and away the #1 choice in digital currency.  

Bitcoin and namecoin for sure. Perhaps Litecoin. Dogecoin definitely not.

To belong to the trinity, an altcoin has to both have high adoption and offer meaningful features that complement bitcoin. This clearly is the case for namecoin (the earliest altcoin).

ya.ya.yo!

[serenitys]

Namecoin? What is that?

Also, how do you obtain these other coins, like litecoin?

I agree the dogecoin is likely a fad. Litecoin seems more legit and sophisticated beside bitcoin.

Is dark coin associated with dark wallet?

Thanks

Mooncoin will be the Darkhorse can't go past all the property/speculators and their favorite line prices to the moon which seems to have died since the creation of Mooncoin at least it served a useful purpose by shutting them up, shows you how much the bankers are behind all that crap.

Obviously it's a cryptocurrency first and foremost, but it's also a joke that got old pretty much after a few days.

Ougtha listen to this one. After all, someone named 'hilariousandco' would likely be an authority on jokes.

[jbreher]

Yea Dogecoin was replaced by Polycoin a long time ago..

I rescind the previous post. This one's even funnier.

You don't award the Nobel Peace Prize to anyone before they've done anything to deserve it. They might step up their predecessor's wars, murder people from the air with no due process, start new wars of aggression....

Yikes! Three straight snarks. Sorry - I don't know what's with me this evening.

In my mind, Litecoin and Doge are too similar to Bitcoin. Any fatal flaw in Bitcoin is likely to be shared with these. As such, we need something completely different in 'the big three'.

Though it is different, I don't much trust NXT. Maybe in time...

[E-C.Guru]

Oh, is NameCoin that old? I thought it was one of the newer coins. Anyways right now I'd say Bitcoin, litecoin and NXTPeer. In 1 year though, Litecoin and perhaps the other 2 will be replaced.. Darkcoin? Quark? USD-e? Auroracoin? Randomanimalcoin? Uhh, no. not that last 1. That much I know

[Ron~Popeil]

I like Peercoin as a member of the big three but the Peercoin developers do very little to promote it. It is a shame because the coin is innovative as is it's partner Prime coin.
