Topic: Altcoin Council - [Poll] Who do you want on the council? - page 2. (Read 1969 times)

I was just about to comment on this as well. I'm not sure if an altcoin council would turn out good or bad, but just seeing the drama that unfolded in the Bitcoin Foundation, I'm not sure if a council is what is needed.

Personally we believe that altcoins are just in a bad phase right now, but that it is ending soon. Only true alternative currencies will rise out of this phase, and from there cryptos will be better than ever.

Bitcoin foundation is full of drama and questionable person running the organization. Having a council will just distract technology innovation and introduce more risk.

There were alternates which were released back in 2010 / 2011 and most of them have since died out, IIRC.

1/500 is bad odds and technically worse than the lottery, the lottery has lesser prizes (like $10 with a 1/50 chance) that you can win.

LOL thanks

i bumped a couple topics of his people may want to check too (i tried to not go overboard so it ended up like spamming though)

one of the more interesting topics is someone came forward i just noticed now that he makes coins ! LOL (was NOT me i have 1 account here)
it all makes perfect sense now LOLOL

a mass coin cloner wants to take power and start a council and become altcoin forum mod AHHAHAHHAH

hey at least i haven't made any coins

How could I not vote for Spoetnik?

It's not just 500 coins it's way more. 500 listed coins and thousands of unlisted coins fall under that $200 million market cap.

$200m for 500 listed coins is a shocking number. I thought the altcoin market is bigger than that. So many coins and so little market share means the trade is very risky.

Yes indeed something like this would be better. Ethereum? No.
I'd personally nominate Spoetnik as well, he's active, everywhere and expressing his opinions (fight shitcoins as well).

OP did you really just nominate yourself?   (took me time to realize who made the thread)

Read this !

@ Theymos - Proposed Alt Currency Suggestion

that is THIS guy trying to seize power !
and he defends scam coins and lies and trolls n shit..

i said a while back in response to his topic "who is the biggest retard" he made just to troll me with..

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8260421


This guy is a weird lunatic and a lying fraud trying to hijack this forum and parade around like he is working to defend crypto.
when in reality all he is defending is his right for people to post scam coins !
And he will lie and troll his ass off to do it too !
The proof to what i just said is right on here (one of many)  Operation Shitcoin Cleanout and Clean Up Has Begun- Join the Revolution- Updated

His goal is to get rid of me and other anti-scam coin guys and seize power and *try and build sum credibility here to DEFEND scam/clone coins !
I have not seen a single guy on this forum who had flipped out and raged and went insane as this guy cryptopaths has on just that on topic alone (last link i posted)
He had went berserk at the mere CONCEPT and discussion of stopping Scam Coins on that topic that he lost control.
and had went on to spam that topic with endless childish insults and then he escalated it to making up lies that we were ddosing him and trying to extort him. (no one did)
ALL to support the right to make and post scam coins here !

he waited a while.. and trolled on some of his other accounts for a bit and now he posts this crap LOL

and i am going to dig around and bump a couple of his topics so you can see just how god damn insane this guy is
AND how utterly deceitful and manipulative he with his scam coin defending and his repeated attempts at seizing power here.

Think about it... Why would a guy be the most intense maniac to defend scam coins here AND want to seize power and control of the forum so he is charge ?
(as a part of a council or by being a moderator of this forum section)
is it anymore obvious then that ?

What are your thoughts on the Altcoin council?

A lot has been going on in the altcoin community from scams to conspiracies and coin saturation. Recently a member on this forum made an attempt to become the only mod of the altcoin forum, having a mod here would result in some coins getting the upperhand an unfiar bias and judgment. I think having an altcoin Council is a far better idea and will be more beneficial to the altcoin community.

The Cryptocurrency market currently has a marketcap of about $7.9 billion and $7.47 billion of that market cap belongs to Bitcoin. That leaves just about $400 million marketcap between all the other currencies if you factor in the fact that litecoin is almost half of that $400 million, you leave a valuation of only $200 for 500 listed coins and thousands of unlisted.

The only reason Bitcoin is more valuable then other altcoins is first mover advantage. It's the truth if you compare bitcoin to a lot of alt coins on the technical side Bitcoin is lacking heavily. If the Protocol was updated to do something more like a lot of altcoins do I feel this is what would truly make the Bitcoin price sky rocket. For example Namecoin had a huge innovation on its hands with its integrated domain system that could lead to the web becoming decentralized. Imagine if bitcoin integrated something like that we wouldn't just see money 2.0 but we would see the internet 2.0 with the internet truly becoming decentralized and we would see massive growth in market cap. However it seems many people in the Bitcoin community look down on any new innovation and don't want to see the protocol progress.

Because of this stiffeling of innovative prevalent in the Bitcoin community along with its market cap already at about $8billion it is hard to see gains of %10000+ that used to be prevalent. That us were alt coins come in, a lot of altcoins give newcomers a chance to make a lot of money in this emerging market similar to the early adopters of Bitcoin.

The Altcoin Council will promote the altcoin scene and show the world that Bitcoin isn't the only cryptocurrency. We will fund add campaigns, insight new innovation and grow the community along with many more things that will take alt coins far.

So vote on who you think should be on this council, I will add some names to the list and I will take your suggestions for anyone else I should add to the list. Everyone has the ability to change their vote so if you see a new person added that you think should be on the council you can change your vote to vote for them.
