This altcoin-section has become a massive fail-parade

[wbaw]

I agree, the section should just be shut down. It's bitcointalk, a bitcoin forum. If alt devs can't run & promote their own forum they shouldn't be taking people's money. It's just a huge fail parade. The serious alts have their own forums & don't come here any more because they don't want to be associated with it.

Not so different than late 2013. New coins were being churned out then, very little innovation. Pump and dumps everywhere. People expect history to repeat, and then it does. Everybody trying to catch that pump....

why do you care what coins people create and what ppl spend their money on.

It sort of turns the work many people are trying to do and have done with Bitcoin into a joke in some way shape or from in my opinion.  Can't really expect the world to use a coin to store their wealth and take cryptography seriously when the scene is flooded with failed joke clone scam pump and dumped coins.

I find myself scrolling up and down endlessly on this pool of SHIT that is the alternative cryptocurrencies section. For one interesting coin such as XMR, there are a million shitcoins. It's trully a waste of time. Trying to make any money is just a lottery, like being a DRK linux instaminer or selling AUR RIGHT at the massive peak, most other coins are just P&D too quickly mined and dumped to ever even be able to give shitty amounts of BTC (all that people want is to sell for BTC).
Still feeling suicidal about not buying BTC back in the day, now im poor and fucked for life (BTC is also useless as fuck if you missed the boat)

This will always happen as long as there are poor people trying to hustle money from any way possible.
