Actually your interpretation of the impact of airdrops to bitcoin seemed out of line. The reason I am saying this is because of the statistics. Due to the rise of those airdrops many people are coming into cryptocurrencies with the hope of earning from free coins they gain from airdrops. Those who have joined the airdrops will also have a knowledge on bitcoin since when they sold their tokens to Ethereum they will sell it in exchange to bitcoin. Thus, airdrops is one of the agent to increase the number of bitcoin users and make the bitcoin community more lively.

you will have countless people holding airdrop token

and they will know of bitcoin a token that stands for competitive electricity waste.

good luck on that.

i increasingly think the bitcoin sect, doesnt want to hear anything but their own version.

but dont worry satoshi nakamotos goal of decreasing the central banks influence will continue.

they will not just promote the token they have unlike bitcoin, but also advertise for them against bitcoin.

this is why i ultimately expect bitcoin to loose attention which is its most important valuedriver.

that is just your opinion and you are wrong. just because a lot of useless tokens are being advertised and a bunch of newbies fall for the advertisement doesn't mean on the other side of the world bitcoin will lose value!

check the history if you don't believe me. shitcoins like this are being created all the time and nobody cares about them and in the end everyone comes back to bitcoin because it has usage.

bitcoins value is just its information spread, this is beeing decentrally destroyed by other token. and now with the interest of those airdrop token receivers that will advertise the token they received.
you know what, you are sinking now into insulting other cryptocurrencies.

no but you will have bitcoins ads beeing ads with countless others, but bitcoin will lose the support of the people.

What you say here makes absolutely no sense.

Second, bitmover is right.
Those coins that use bumping services on bitcointalk will never take off.
Most of them are simple ICO scmas that are interested only in raising some money, they put a"roadmap" which effectively shuts down anyone criticizing the project till 2019 and by that time nobody will remember the scam.

Actually those crap coins and tokens are doing Bitcoin a favor, showing to the entire world that we don;t need another coin and making them think twice before investing in an ICO.

And I wouldn't be worried about losing the attention of people, those who really get involved and invest in scamy projects are nothing to cry over.

These are shitcoins
People will get Airdrops that will be worth almost zero. Or they will worth few bucks and become zero in few months.
They are not a threat to bitcoin.

And if any altcoin show some good code improvement, bitcoin can just copy it if it's good.
Bitcoin can coexist with other coins as well, as windows Linux Mac and Android do.

you dont get the point, they will also attract attention and therefore distort and confuse attention for Bitcoin

coins without missions will be just advertised datasmog.

Do you buy everything from an ad you see in the internet or in the streets?

no but you will have bitcoins ads beeing ads with countless others, but bitcoin will lose the support of the people.

every token or coin that comes via airdrop must have its reference in a valid asset or under a blockchain and that alone has made other coins still give references to bitcoin and it will remain that way.

many people are getting airdrops extremly easy from various icos,

there are even special scemes to get those announcement threads always on top.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/great-project-good-luck-posters-what-to-do-with-them-3345091

these people then automatically get an interest to promote their token, similar like the early bitcoin members and the early miners.

they will not just promote the token they have unlike bitcoin, but also advertise for them against bitcoin.

this is why i ultimately expect bitcoin to loose attention which is its most important valuedriver.
