I also agree that there is to much altcoins that just make damage to Bitcoin as non-informed person may think that bitcoin is one of this shit .

I don't get the furor, except from the Litecoin guys - who are rightly terrified that their tenuous status as "sliver" to Bitcoin's "gold" is being threatened. Yes, it is, welcome the darwinian thunder-dome of alt-coins. It may kill them actually, as the miners fragment to mine their favorite one.
As for the rest, they have the market penetration of a wet piece of cardboard against a granite block, so I wouldn't be too worried about it. Unless you're not number one, of course.

Wondering, why so many news websites spread this shit? There are over 70 shitcoins already, every new needs a separate article on bbc?
Our enemies have realized that the best way to destroy the Bitcoin is to do so from the inside.

Holy cow, I was wondering when this kind of thing might happen 
Are we going to be seeing a cryptocurrency engine coming out now that's designed to let people edit stuff really easily like in a game engine?

Christians demand JesusCoin
I saw JesusCoin yesterday on http://coingen.io.
That site is going to make altcoins balloon up from 70 to 700,000 in January alone.
-At which point the very word "altcoin" will be associated with spam and viagra because every marketer in the world will be begging you to mine their coin.
Great news for bitcoin!

Wait, so they want to remain anonymous while doing everything they can to encourage as many people as possible to run their program the moment it's released?
That's a remarkably fine veil for a horse!

Am I the only one not understanding what's funny with this?

Well if you can create a coin to that can get free media attention like that, then why not! I think with so many coins being created, you need something that will give you an extra lift.

Agree, it's an embarrassment. Would rather the knowledge of these are restricted to in-jokes of the experienced bitcoiners.

Agreed. It's pathetic. All these shitty altcoins just make bitcoin look like a joke to people that haven't heard of it.
