why would i choose another failure in case of failure? it's better to walk away from the whole thing and forget about it. if there has to be a 'replacement' then litecoin looks a lot more reassuring as a solid prospect.
I sense some denial here. In your mind, a coin that rockets to #4 essentially upon release is a failure?
I mean, sure - it has not supplanted Bitcoin Core. But the ink ain't dry on this as of yet. Not by a long shot.
That said, I'm not onboard with the 'backup' characterization, but whatevs...
The only reason it went that high was due to the full bitcoin chain history
What will you do if the Bgold fork instantly reaches a higher CMC rank will you class that fork as more successful ?
Garbage. Several other coins have forked from the BTC chain (memory fails me what they were called), and most of them failed almost immediately. None of them even made the top 20 coins, for any period of time.
Speaking of garbage - Bgold. I visited the ann thread and was horrified by the sh*tshow. No testnet, crap code wouldn't compile, bad grammar on the website. I will be shocked if this poopybird even gets off the ground.
