Anything with a country or place name is a moronic idea. It defeats one of the main attractions of any good currency; being accepted by as many people as possible. Why would I use Californiacoin, when I could use Bitcoin, which is accepted by the rest of the world as well?

So, have people never accepted US dollars in another country?

Not really. Try to buy something with 1000 "Tiyin" in your town. Same if i try to buy something with dollar in my village...

I was given a dollar once, but the bureau de change said it was too small a quantity to exchange and nobody else would touch it. It was just a piece of paper I couldn't spend.

Has anyone made an Altcoin to finance a political campaign ever? Like "Suppot X Candidate by mining and donating X coin"

And someone should make a Joe Rogan coin, he would probably think it was awesome and it would get coverage on not only this forum, but it would probably get pretty good traction in the forum on JoeRogan.net and he would probably talk about it on his podcast at some point.

Does anyone want to add any coins?

Not yet, but Bitmark launched around 10 days ago and it's going very well so far. Check out this proposal for a social karma/tipping system based around using crypto(Marks, ie 0.001 BTM):

I actually agree with Brilliantrocket. "Country Coins" like Spaincoin etc etc, are shitcoins. There's no use for coins like that, since Bitcoin can already be used all around the world.

Great topic!

Its a new direction in crypto and a welcome sight to see coins out there that do something more then just have a following.

Ive been a big fan of Devcoin for some time, its a great platform for developers, writers and artists to show there work and get support for there efforts.
Carbon coin is based on actual carbon sequestration programs that mitigate the environmental effects of crypto mining with real world environmental projects funded by its community.

All of these coins add value and legitimacy to the crypto community by bringing in people who otherwise wouldn't be using crypto currencies into the market.
The road to mass adoption is itself, mass adoption and for that we need diversity, decentralization and tangible concepts that I feel these coins represent.

I am surprised theres no cryptonote altcoins mentioned in your list op! I mean if we talking about 'force to be reckoned with' etc those currencies are going through some crazy period now with all sorts of new features etc.. and a lot of arguing too of course Wink

I don't care what anyone on this forum says. To everyone on the out side, these are the coins that make sense.

I respect your opinion, was just curious about such coins not being mentioned and why that may be.. what is your opinion of cryptonote based coins in that case?

If the OP means pushing toward a new 'Low level' then I'm totally onboard.

I'd be very interested to learn what is meant by "the next level".

Also how many levels are there?

On which level are we now?!

I meant where it is no longer just a community of fringe developers, mining into centralization.

Thank you for your clarification.

edit:
FWIW, my sense is that at present, coin communities are mostly populated by miners (rather than devs) with a few "civilians" dotted around the edges if your lucky. I see miners as being very important to a coins immediate "health"- especially at launch. Attracting a wider and more varied community w/could enhance a coin's longevity and I agree with the thinking that a coin with clear goals, achievable or idealistic, has a better chance of building a mainstream community.

Coins that TOTALLY could push Bitcoin to the next level

So.. these coins are going to help bitcoin? Or you think footballcoin will be the next bitcoin? I don't get it.

How will these coins help bitcoin?

Is this a list of the coins you own?

So many questions. Cheesy

Football coin Ex: I think Football coin could be Bitcoins gambling coin. There coin be a Football coin exchange and everything, and as long as no money is involved it would be completely legal.

They will help Bitcoin by bringing new people to it, just like they ALL brought people to this website that probably would not have come if it were not for that coin.

No, this is not a list of coin I own.
