Re: Whatever Happened To Mintcoin?

Peter Dwire — Wed, 25 Mar 2015 07:19:14 -0000

oh yeah, has it? Sometimes blipping up to 11 satoshis (or even 24). Not great, I admit. But, then again, what is pricewise in Crypto land these days? Without any useful real-world acceptance it will stay that way for a while: Mintcoin or not, Bitcoin and otherwise. Badmouthing is easy, but it is only that.

And as far as your "research" goes, googling is not researching. If you cannot find "your" expected result on page 1 this still does not necessarily mean that a project is deprecated :)

Get real, indeed.

MINT is, BTW, still trading in that range -- like pretty much every other Alt coin out there.

you wrote "RibbitRewards listing on crypto-currency exchanges Melotic, C-Cex, Poloniex and shapeshift.io immediately upon launch. " - it launched and it's not listed on ANY exchange.

You canned response to any RDD criticisms. We already know you FUD bitcoin everywhere. Enjoy your coinaday review on reddit this evening! :)

I'm pretty sure there are a lot of kids in crypto. They expect to double their money overnight. When it does not happen they start crying. Most of these coins are crap. But I still hold out hope that something happens to change the world.

I'm following Reddcoin. Unlike other coins, they have a great plan. They are building a 100% decentralized tip platform and they have a great devs team. It's still risky, but price increase in 2014. One of the only alt to increase in 2014... it mean something to me.

Everyone who believe bitcoin will be the only cryptocurrency use in 5 years is delusional. Many altcoins will survive and grow to cover niche usage (like micro-transaction and Reddcoin).

Re: The Altcoin Great Depression May Be Overblown

Ross Nicoll — Thu, 08 Jan 2015 09:12:50 -0000

One of the biggest things I think would help is for people to consider the older coins more. I see people saying they want a coin with no premine and a well known developer team, and it seems strange that the actual big offerings (Bit, Lite, Doge, Peer, Black, Dark, etc.) don't seem to appeal any more. Bitcoin is new and experimental; any altcoin is therefore even more new and experimental. There's still plenty of time to be an extremely early adopter in Bitcoin, let alone the other coins.

The chances that the next big thing will appear from a random team you've never heard of and who have no history with cryptocurrency technology is extremely slim.

Oh, and I'm not at all convinced by ICOs. There's a place for funded and unfunded coins, but IMHO funded coins should have milestones they hit before they get the next round of funding, not get a huge sack of money at the start.

Thanks man. Too many attempts at centralization and 'getting rich quick' for my taste lately. My faith has been dwindling - along with everyones!

Re: LTCGear.com Drags Out Collapse

Michi Lumin — Tue, 06 Jan 2015 16:44:39 -0000

Thanks; I'm glad altcoinherald is calling this out... I also like your comment on a previous note -- that this has become a rich man's game and that it's the opposite of what Satoshi wanted. I could not concur more.

Re: LTCGear.com Drags Out Collapse

Crypto Gotti — Tue, 06 Jan 2015 16:39:49 -0000

Amen, bro. You really just said it all with this comment.

Re: LTCGear.com Drags Out Collapse

Michi Lumin — Tue, 06 Jan 2015 16:35:53 -0000

Unfortunately, people on litecointalk are still holding out hope, and pushing the day where they'll accept that it was a scam out week by week. Usually along with "Chris" (the operator) "is a good guy". People don't seem to understand that charisma is a common trait among shysters, it enables them to do what they do. LTCGear will probably just stop updating, stay static, and the true believers will dwindle bit by bit as the weeks go by, similar to the people "playing along" with the scammer playing with his prey at hashie.co., and the people believing that Paycoin will turn around "any day now" with GAW.

At this point. a lot of us are convinced that precisely zero cloud mining operations are legitimate. Warnings went out early, but those who warned were shouted down as "shills" (for who??) or as you mentioned, spreading "FUD".

Later on, when these schemes do collapse, those same apologists will deride anyone who got burned for "not seeing it coming". (Either to mask their own losses or just make themselves feel better.) And let's not forget the eternal, "I got paid, it can't be a scam because I got paid - I don't know what you did wrong."

Just because you made ROI, does not mean it wasn't a scam. Just because you got out in the nick of time, doesn't mean it wasn't a scam. Nor does it mean that it's the fault of the victims. Don't confuse luck with smarts. To seem legitimate, some people in a scam have to profit - usually the earliest comers. Just like in a casino, even if the games are rigged, a jackpot has to happen every once in a while to keep people feeding their coins into the slot machines.

The days of getting rich quick with cryptocurrency are gone. They were gone a bit more than two years ago, with the exception of people who are involved in pump and dumps; which is just a fast-action scam in itself, anyways. Even those who did hold their $2 bitcoin, I have a hard time believing they were visionaries - they were likely just lucky to have a bubble happen. Now we're seeing BTC fall to a reasonable norm. (It probably hasn't even reached that level yet.)

Some alts that concentrate on more than just price, and bitcoin itself, if you play your cards right, may allow you to get "moderately OK, kind of slowly". But anyone promising to make you rich expediently is not doing so altruistically.

But, of course, those who have a lot (perhaps too much) invested, people who have taken out loans to invest in GAW, Hashie, LTCGear - won't want to hear this, and it'll be the same lines: FUD, shill, know-nothing, etc. OK - it's your money and sure, the cost is sunk. But the warnings were out there all along.

Re: How To Explain Cryptocurrency To Newbies

nectarcoin — Wed, 31 Dec 2014 00:38:53 -0000

Crypto shouldn't have to be "explained to newbies." It should just work intuitively like any good mainstream software application does. We're focused on exactly that. Crypto (and bitcoin for that matter) has not met the challenge of mainstream adoption. It needs a killer app.

We're NectarCoin. We're working on a decentralised, peer-to-peer, user-friendly messenger-based solution that is focused from the start on mainstream consumer and business adoption. Crowdsale is within the next two weeks. Please google "NectarCoin"

If you want a ‘game changing‘ altcoin check out Glowshares (gsx) with in wallet voting. Currently the voting system is very vulnerable to fraud, cyberattack, and government corruption. The possibility of organizing free and fair elections through the use of cryptography is not far from being a reality.
