It wont' be which coin is the "best" technologically, but which one is easiest for vendors to adopt. Look at VHS vs Betamax. VHS was the crappier product, but became more popular.

At least that's my opinion.

VHS initially was able to hold a longer tape. Betamax couldn't even store a feature film. Sometimes one mistake is the death of an era. Wink


prophexy: definitely stay away from solidcoin as it is closed source. I would stay away from investing anything more than few play dollars in bitcoin as well. Little economy supports its weight, therefore it is easily manipulated and is just a stock market game where anyone who invests now takes an exceedingly high risk.

Bitcoin isn't going anywhere.   If any of them are going to crash, it's Solidcoin, that much is obvious.

What is everyones opinion on the recent rumours of bitcoin dying, all of these new replacements to BitCoin coming out (SolidCoin, etc)?  I mean, I really don't want to start investing too much in Bitcoin if it's going to die soon (which would be a pity ;()...  Just wanting opinions Smiley

Nothing has fundamentally changed with Bitcoin, I do not see it as dying.

As far as the alternate chains... be skeptical of any claims until the code has been vetted by an independent party.

Ahh, well this makes sense Cheesy  Thank you for your input.
