It's true that there's a huge saturation of alt coins in the market now, which is devaluting a lot of them.  It's hard to say which coins will gain in value in the future; sometimes you never know.

Where do you store your bitcoins and altcoins - in client wallets on a hard drive, or on a removeable drive, paper wallets, or at exchanges? I'm not sure where I should store mine. Keeping them in an account at an exchange is obviously convenient, but perhaps it's not safe. What do y'all do?
I have stored it at different places. saving inside an encrypted container (truecrypt for example) at a cloud service also seems like a safe solution to me while still being able to access it from different places.

I'm very new to cryptocurrencies.  I don't even have one coin yet.  However, I am concerned that BTC is over saturated so I've been seriously looking at alt coins.  So far the ones that look promising to me now are NXT and Ripple, and possibly LTC.  Those of you who have been in the market longer can provide some wisdom and merits of these or others which you see that may have more promise.  I welcome your input.

Thanks,
Leon

I wouldn't think the news in china would stop them adding quark. China has the most activity still and is the reason that BTC hasn't gone threw the floor.

I read in  a tweet that Zeta coin will be on BTC38 a few days after quark, which should be the 13th. Is this true? Unfortunately BTC38 is not english compatible or at least I cant figure it out.

I thought BTC38 was on a hold after what happened with all the banks in China. If it didn't hopefully they will get the chance to add QRK and SBC.

I am just getting started mining.. which alt-coins have the best long term potential? and which alt-coins over the overall most profitable to mine?

No one knows.  And anyone trying to convince you otherwise already invested in that specific alt-coin.  Last week, it was feathercoin!  This week, quark and stablecoins! 

If you are looking for a long term investment in an altcoin, I would pick one that can be traded in USD over $2.

Thus, bitcoin, litecoin, namecoin, primecoin, peercoin.

Alt coins imo are a waste of time, bc have much superior crypting, bc's are the only coins worth mining. IMO

Just wondering, what's the hypest alt-coin right now? :-)

See the red HYPE?

Thanks for the website, it made me discover a lot of different currencies.

But I'm wondering if there are documentations on the utility of the various coins. I know that Bitcoins and Litecoins will probably the main general trading coins. Also Namecoins is used for domains of the DarkNet.

But what about the other currencies, are there others that are as specialised as Namecoins?

Thanks for your help. And if you got a link instead of writing it all down I would appreciate a faster exchange of information.

Bytecoin at +2.96 percent looks pretty appealing... Tongue

Yeah , somebody but 1$ worth it. If they buy 2$ the market cap will double.

Pick an alt coin you think looks good/could potentially increase in value and mine it. Or do something like middlecoin for pretty consistent payouts in BTC.

Well right now there is no hype for anything whatsoever. There were some hype for some alts but everything got reseted because of the crash. You should wait for the price to stabilize now.

Have you guys checked out FST ? it's really fast and the difficulty is really low right now, and it can be exchanged with BTC. I think that for us without a really powerful GPU it's awesome because we can mine a lot with less. What do you guys think? Roll Eyes

It's also worth almost nothing, so kinda meh.
