I disagree that there will be widespread adoption of tipping currencies. That seems much more like an idea that people thought of as they were sitting there with their crypto and wondering how it could be useful. Merchants will accept bitcoin because it benefits them. Perhaps people will accept litecoin if btc transaction fees get too high (something i doubt?). But why would someone be bothered to get a wallet and a tip bot when someone wants to tip that 4 cents of a currency they haven't heard of?

Tipping and micropayments could be an important thing in the digital economy. Imagine if you were an indie game developper, would you prefer to try and sell your game for 10$ and see most people download it through a torrent, or to get tens of thousands of 10¢ tips (which are impossible with current payment processors due to high fees)?

Also, tipbot wallets are quite easy to set-up, you just accept the tip and it makes one for you that's linked to your account. It feels great to be able to empower in an humble way those who make insightful comments on social network, and be rewarded when you do the same. If a large number of users liked the comment this could be quite profitable (ie. receiving 100 10¢ tips for posting a cool meme on reddit). Imho, this will be the new "like".

The gaming example is a good one. game developers and musicians and artists...yes now i can see that.

I find the act of tipping on social media quite pedantic. I, for one, am not going to keep 10 dollars in tip money to send .10 to someone who posts a good meme. Monetizing everything isn't a good idea, imo.

thanks to coblee for his post, very much appreciated.
as for the darkcoin fans, the volume is a total fake, has been in the pump and it is still now fake. who buys here is just feeding the sharks that artificially pumped it.

Sorry but if you had the time to make the suggestion it says you care in the slightest way. I'm not going to hold your hand to get your suggestion anywhere.

If you want it implemented then that is where you should start.

No, I don't. Please don't try to find that in me Smiley
In fact, Litecoin is now a competitor to what I invest in, and it's in my interest that litecoin fails and gives its market share to something else.
But because I really liked Litecoin in the past, I feel like I should suggest something good on its possible development, but it will probably fall on deaf ears anyway. Oh well, that's a natural course of events.

I haven't, as I don't own any Litecoins now and don't care if it survives or not. If you care about it, feel free to copy my suggestion to their forum.

Once again we are talking about your opinion.

The market's opinion overall matters more. Just look at the track record of LTC thus far over almost 3 years.

Features come with cost as well as testing. Testing takes time and patience. It isn't where you stick it in the microwave and voila it is done.

You come as a smart one and must understand that in technology you can't rely on the past success, you have to work hard all the time. Above I made one suggestion which doesn't require much testing, as Counterparty did a lion's share of the work already, but would add to utility of Litecoin a lot. Although I think at this point it wouldn't gain a lot of market share, but it'd add a new feature and wouldn't require a hard fork, and help Litecoin survive longer. Just sitting and waiting won't move it anywhere, but downwards.

Where did you post this on litecointalk.org?

You are on the forum to get suggestions for LTC changes to be taken seriously if that is the case.

Past success isn't the only thing that i'm looking at. But track record gives an indication of possible future outcomes.

Just like when an employer looks at a candidate-employee's resume at an interview. It is his past and then upon more digging the can find that person's track record. So yes track record (aka the past) can tell you much about the future.

Also the present is another indication. Right now LTC seems to have very strong support if you care to look at the official forum litecointalk.org to get a gist.
