Topic: Altcoin of 2016? - page 2. (Read 7681 times)
Monero will rise and will equal with Dash, i don't really know why is still around at 200k sat..?
ETH but LISK and Waves are coming and still not end the year ..............
Good morning what you think about Uthercoin.
Could go places, but you'll have to be patient. The other clones have been hit badly, and Ether itself is tumbling right now. So long as the big boy is falling off the rails, all its clones will have a tough time. Uther will only benefit once it gets noticed & once Ethereum gets back on the pump track.
In retrospect, my earlier words have a sign beside them saying "Eat Me!" (sigh)
Until now it seems it was the year of ETH. I wish I would have known. ETH is not as "clean" as I'd like so I didn't invest at all into it. Stupid me, since it's not the first "not 100% ok" alt with great market.
I think that there will be at least 1-2 more alts that'll take off and I really hope that I'll guess right at least one of them.
But I don't know which will be really the Altcoin of 2016. If I'd know, I'd be already rich and busy enjoying life instead of hanging around on this forum.

So out of all the competing altcoins which ones do you guys think has the greatest potential this year, and also which one in the long term?
What do you guys see for the future of Bitcoin and do you think Bitcoin has a likely possibility of being replaced by one of the altcoins mentioned above?

Vcash because of recent developments pertaining to ZeroLedger and the 12-month Timeline started in March.
I think NEM/XEM, WAVES and RISE.
ETHERUM is best altcoin 
Bigup the highest staking POS and Mintcoin. POS will replace BTC mining after the halving. No new miners coming out. 1 BTC in cloud hashing is beaten by 1 BTC of BIGUP as far as profits are concerned. 1 BTC in cloud hashing will earn less every 12 days. On BIGUP 1 BTC it will accrue 100% year end. With price stable you will have 2 BTC, how is that for ROI?
BigUp!
You are not biased at all! 
Well i think many people are saying that ethereum will be altcoin 2016 and its too far to dictate who is altcoin 2016.. many altcoin compitators waves decred ethereum lisk and other altcoin.. and i think there's other new altcoin will release before end of this year and i think it will be popular than other altcoin.. CBX has potencial to grow and i think this is the next ethereum..
I'd like to add I/O Coin.

Decred (DCR) . Its hybrid PoW - PoS . With promising ,experienced and active dev team.
After BTC reward halving decred will be great to mine .

Do you mean the bitcoin miner will convert to Decred miner? I think they have to sell their ASIC and buy the GPU.
I think WAVES is a good candidate and of course IOTA.
IOTA should be first, WAVES second

for me $RDD $REDDCOIN Is best altcoin at 2016
I shall select the Ethereum and Monero. Both have strong development team and have actual usage by the community.
cough cough. trying to steal the ethereum train?
Ethereum can be the candidate for it since it already got a lot of attention from a bunch of people around the net. The more people talks about it the more people will use it and finally this altcoin can survive for a long periode of time. Hopefuly the price wont go down very deep in this year.
Another vote for Gridcoin
Using BOINC for mining is a plus since we are actually doing something useful instead of just wasting time and electricity mining other coins. I really like Gridcoin and it encourages me to add new mining machines to get more GRC. The more cores you have contributing to projects, the more will be your payout (That is, if you have a good magnitude in the projects you are contributing
)
As far as development goes, it even has an utility app in the Google Play and the Windows Store:

Right now ETH is taking the lead, but i think for 2016 LISK has made a great start.
Thing is will they be able to keep getting volume and hyping it?

I would pick Gridcoin (GRC), as it is one of the more interesting coins out there.
Gridcoin (GRC) replaces mining with doing research for scientific projects, for example to cure Ebola (http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/research/oet1/overview.do), fold proteins (https://boinc.bakerlab.org/) or find aliens (http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/).
From a user's point of view, he simply has to run simulations from the different projects using the BOINC software (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/). Then the network comes to a consensus, who has contributed how much computing power to BOINC, which can bee seen for example here (http://www.gridresearchcorp.com/gridcoin/?result&t=CPID_Leaderboard). In some blocks this consenus is saved in the blockchain and the reward one gets when staking a block is proportional to how much research was recently done for BOINC by this researcher.
Setting it all up has been quite complicated in the past, but the pool on pool.gridcoin.co has made alle this easier and already has almost 800 active miners/researchers (http://pool.gridcoin.co/rankings)
I also has very active development, here is the main forum: https://cryptocointalk.com/forum/464-gridcoin-grc/
More information and tutorial to set it up here: www.gridcoin.us
