Hi All,

Newbie here to this forum, but have been following the rise of the cryptoworld for a while. Had a chance to get in early to the bitcoin buying but never pulled the trigger for some unknown reason, i just forgot about it Huh...as it turned out that was an expensive mistake. Could have bought for around 50 US!! oh well.

My question to everyone though is...

As i understand it, merchants have a key role to play in bringing a crytocurrency into a feasible/usable reality. Surely getting BTC on the merchants radar is hard enough, let alone LTC!! Surely 99% of the ALTCOINS are going to fail, simply by the fact that they are many years away from merchant adoption, if any one of them gets adopted at all! Surely retail outlets are not going to be able to keep up with every new coin that appears out of the woodwork!

i have BTC and LTC and have a keen eye on others, some very innovative and interesting, but it's this point that keeps me from buying.

thanks for any opinions or help
