sure, but that doesn't mean it won't happen

I'm actually hoping (against reason) that the bitcoin fiasco will teach a generation of money skeptics about how money actually works

its a lottery basically, every so often a new bitcoin is minted and the more computer cycles you have entered into the lottery the better your chances of winning are

the frequency is continually slowing down until at some point it will stop, all based on factors and formulas and stuff

MAJOR:

-BTC Bitcoin - first, strongest, most accepted, most mined, high volume market, a true currency
-LTC Litecoin - second only to BTC , faster than BTC, Small efficiency gap between GPUs and CPUs , ASIC - proof
-NMC Namecoin merged mined with BTC, used for alternative p2p domain system
-PPC PPcoin Proof Of Stake [very innovative, low energy ] , compatibile with BTC miners

MINOR:

-TRC Terracoin based on BTC, fast difficulty adjustment, initialy flaved but corrected
-DVC Devcoin merged mined with BTC, 90% of generation goes to foundation, 10% to miners
-IXC IxCoin merged mined with BTC, premined 580k coins but still alive
-NVC NovaCoin - scrypt hashing[like LTC] , proof of stake [like PPC] , controversial start
-FRC Freicoin - back alive. 4.89% anual demurrage. for the first 3 years 80% block subsidy goes to foundation, 20% to miners

CANDIDATES:

-BTE Bytecoin- the 1:1 bitcoin copycat, nothing changed. extremally high starting hype/hashrate.
-BBQ BBQCoin - forgotten after 51% attack on launch, now revived and active.

DEAD / DYING :

-LQC Liquidcoin made to be very fast at constant difficulty, dead [pool closed, exchange closed]
-SC Solidcoin - dying (10-20% fee), designed to improove IxCoin, hard to be neutral on this one, 1.0 was a premine scam, 2.0 says BTC is pyramid scheme.
-GG Geist Geld experiment on BTC algorithm, how fast can it go? just for sience.
-TBX Tenebrix great idea of cpu-friendly mining with scrypt, but premined with 7.7milion coins - alive but little support due to premining
-FBX Fairbrix - Tenebrix without the premine, bad launch, alive but little support.
-I0C I0coin - ixcoin without the premine. Dead
-CLC Coiledcoin - some nice ideas, but killed in 51% attack
-RUC Rucoin - copy of bitcoin, only difference is that it was developed in russian not english.than reborn much different, not confirmed if it is the same blockchain, both scrypt[like LTC] and sha256d , nice client !warning! not opensource ! dying again
-TimeKoin - PHP webbased coin, alive but not used or traded.
-Beertokens -abitious [impossible?] try to stabilize price against commodity.
-MMM MMMcoin - Dead coin by notorious scamer SPMavrodi, named "yes we can" "my mozem mnogoye"

we all know its only a matter of time before BTC surges back up past 266 this time. When will the next 'bubble' (holds back laughter) be?

i may not be operating on the right metaphysical plane here but idg how this is any less of a mass consensual delusion than any other currency

it's much more of one!

goole, Friday, 12 April 2013 16:22 (eleven years ago) link

not that i think mass consensual delusion is a very accurate was to describe currency, its an intentional system not a delusion

i think the question is why would you want to hold bitcoins if u were not 1.) speculating or 2.) buying drugs
