Hello I am a novice at the cryptography,
I have been reading the talks here since couple of days, I have some questions (answers to those may lead to more questions
)
1.) Why there are so many coins and most of them are not used in the real world ?
2.) Mining of each type of coins require high-end GPUs' which cost a lot, what if the coin reaches to its maximum limits, how then mining works
3.) How do you prevent some one starts a new coin, pre-generate most of the coins, get it listed on some exchange and then suddenly abandoned ( ByteCoin, Infinite Coin for and example ), I am not able to find any active links for its developments.
4.) Lets say I want to start mining what will be the best currency for GPU mining
5.) What is required to start own pool ( I own few servers sitting ideal )
Thanks in advance
1. not just other coins, bitcoin itself is not used in the real world for the most of people.
2. not really for the altcoin which have low diff but its works good with high-end GPU's.
3. to prevent this is simple, don't buy the coins and you are fine, this is only what i am thinking.
4. the best currency i think you can choose with eth, etc, dash, xmr, zec because this coins have stable price except eth.
5. i don't know for this because i am not start my own pool.
