Topic: Any altcoins liable to blow up like bitcoins did? (Read 4600 times)

ROFL at all these newbs that just got into crypto, throwing out the names of all these chains except for Litecoin, Namecoin, PPC, or XPM

Why would I want to invest in an altcoin that already has already successful? And honestly define successful? They had a couple weeks of fame and now they're just about done. They'll exist and maybe have little spikes here and there, but don't expect to invest and be rolling in it in a couple weeks. Besides, Litecoins's value has been steady dropping the past month and I don't see it shooting back up anytime soon. Same deal with Namecoin, which imho is a stupid name and that's one of the most important parts of any coin.

I threw like 30 usd into Doge for a few reasons. One, the name. While I don't think the name will be adopted by major businesses and the professional world, the internet community is TIGHT. Everybody knows Doge, like it's familiar. It just kind of speaks to internet culture. It's not like Earthcoin or Ethereum or however you spell it which just seems like they're trying to sound cool. Two, again, the community. The reddit forum for it is really active, and I feel like it just kind of captures a large portion of the internet population. It would make sense if, years from now, you had Bitcoin for your professional, business transactions and finances, and Dogecoin for your personal transactions and finances. There's definitely room for more than one cryptocurrency in a lasting perspective. Finally, I think that while functionality is important, that's not what people look at when they go to buy a coin. They buy because their friend or family member told them about it; and that again goes back to community.

I know they all think doge and other types of altcoin are going to worth millionaires even though litecoin and namecoin has already been successful.

Looking to maybe exchange my investment in bitcoins to an alternate cryptocurrency; one thats liable to blow up like bitcoins did. Any opinions on the up and comers? I've heard good things about Doge and Quark, but I wouldn't know for sure as I'm fairly new to this. Thanks for any and all replies!

It's strange that there are so many haters and belivers for Dogecoin. Just shows the impact of this coin .... and haters gonna die     (in sense of , they will be belivers soon )

I can't believe people still think DOGE is going to be the next big thing.  It already had it's time in the sun, and it's freshness date is already passed a week ago.  DOGE has no protection from getting DOGE-ed by the next meme-backed coin.
The meme coins will all eventually dilute each other out to dust, arbing in and out of one another until all get driven back down to 1 satoshi each and forgotten.  Novelties that all popped once then faded into the internet's background noise.    

Plus, if they ever want to go really mainstream, they can just soften the "G" in Doge like people do with Target pronounced as "Tarjay". Voila! Instantly more expensive and exclusive sounding 

Over time I'd say worldcoin.. has an amazing community and is really starting to promote its self.
