Topic: Best <insert name>coins to speculate on - page 3. (Read 3307 times)
I think it was more than negligence that killed solidcoin. Haha. If I were to play around with alts, i would use litecoin. But, I really don't see litecoin being significant long term (sorry litecoiners). Namecoin is interesting, but I haven't quite wrapped my mind around it yet. Not sure if there is much trading going on there either.
Hi B-People,
I have recently checked the current stats of all the alternative coins there are (and possibly will be, i.e. freicoin,..) and wonder whether we will see some notable changes in the near future, when new developments and projects take shape to maybe bolster their monetary value. With Zhoutong's new project coming up (although I dont understand it) I feel some development is bound to happen to namecoin, while solidcoin apparently died from negligence, litecoin seems to dominate the altcoin crowd right now (for whatever reason). When the first ASICs hit the mining crowd of bitcoin, supposedly in October, all the GPU miners will probably switch to the next most tempting option, which as it looks like rigth now could be litecoin. With its current hash rate of around 0.2 GH/s it would soon boast to 10 or 100x that, preceding a similar effect that ASICs will have on the bitcoin network (just hinting here to watch that development closely the more October draws near).
Some useful sites that provide altcoin charts:

https://btc-e.com/
https://vircurex.com/
http://namecoin.gw.gd/
http://allchains.info/graphs.html
What do you guys think will provide the most promising speculation opportunities in this arena?
What has the best potential and when will we see the first major movements?
DISCUSS!!
P.S.: Please be advised, that I have no technical understanding whatsoever concerning programming or what lies behind the xyzcoin protocols. So pls correct me where wrong in the statements above and explain technical stuff like you would explain it to a 5 year old. thx
