I noticed that you can press Enter multiple times to change the site's "opinion" to the coin, some coins have one.
There seems to be a list where known coins got its individual description and some shitcoins have non-generic multiple response,
total shitcoins have multiple responses.
Perhaps, it's the developers' personal picks or a sarcastic trading signal.

Conclusion: doiownashitcoin is a fun~er version of our Speculation Board (minus the Memes).

Oh - we can turn this in to serious shit. The newsletter will be fun (and informative)!

After a long work day my buddy and I decided to do a fun 1-2 hour project...and this is what came of it: http://www.doiownashitcoin.com/

Do you own a shitcoin? Find out. haha Most likely the answer is yes Smiley

Thought you'd all appreciate


*We have been receiving way more engagement than expected, so we added a little mailing list for a monthly letter to go out. Let us know what you think, or if you have any funny responses for specific coins. lol


Thanks,
Mike

I surprised whats is good in this post so it get this much amount of merit. Website itself it a shit Tongue.

According to this website, NEW, Tezos, ETHER, LITECOIN, Eletroneum, EOS all are shitcoin. Cheesy Cheesy

Here at DOIAS we see the glass half empty  Smiley lmao No..but the thing is we may rank shittiness, so everything is a 'shitcoin' perhaps, but some less so than others. We'll work on it...would people rather rank shittiness so least shitty to most shitty or somehow define something as a shitcoin or not. I think shittiness is a bit cooler than shitcoin or not shitcoin like hotdog or not hotdog XD

Coin marketcap may rank coins by marketcap, but what if we ranked by shittiness or not? Interesting to see what correlation to marketcap there is too there... hm..

Cheers man

Great thoughts. Ultimately, more can be useful, its a matter of how they are weighted.

The github one can get tricky, there can be a lot to look at there. Simply looking at number of bugs, or bugs fixed, etc doesn't mean much

i was thinking more in the lines of commit frequency and contributions to the repository. there are so many useful API calls that you can make to get these stats easily too which you can use in your code.

an exaggerated comparison of commit frequencies between two repositories (Electrum, and my code):

Well, at least there is something fun that makes my mood seem so good. But I noticed that you have just supported Bitcoin. Although it is a kind, there are many other coins that will prosper in the future. You are being too subjective, OP. It is not that I am not supporting Bitcoin because it is my favorite one. But still you need to give other coins a chance. Your website is great and I am sure you will redesign it for the better.

Not just BTC is supported, others are too.

The joke, but point is that its all shitcoins, just how shitty or not-shitty is it? We'll work on making things more obvious tho, and introduce features in due time.....sign up for our funny and informative newsletter too.

We can turn this in to some serious 'shit' (pun intended)

Chat soon - HODL and prosper.

I love the website! Next time when I'm contemplating of buying an alt(shit)coin I'll firstly consult with the website  Grin

Thanks! We'll be showing some metrics and thinking of features over time. Also listening to the community.

Funny, yet informative newsletter too.

Thanks again!

Lots of people seem to be taking this far too seriously. And lots of people seem a bit upset that they are holding shitcoins Grin

The point/joke is that they are all shitcoins, it's just how shitty is it? ETH is going to be a more top-tier shitcoin, and not a shit-tier shitcoin. Coinmarketcap goes by marketcap, we'll figure out a way to better shittiness rank XD

Even BTC, sure top-tier shitcoin, whatever.

If you have any suggestions, we're @doiownashitcoin, we'll open a Telegram or something soon too.

Cheers

I love this. I also think you should look at the amount the coin is raising. If their is an ICO for a million that's diffrent than if they are kasing for 100k for their budget. Do they have a detailed budget filled out?

Interesting metric - we'll have to see is there a way to automate this. Thanks! You can tweet at us @doiownashitcoin to talk shit...and provide any suggestions lol Smiley

Keep in touch.

More things you might be able to take into account, some might be too far fetched to be tied to a rating or to do automatically.

1-network activity (nodes/difficulty/# of daily tx/ etc)
2-github activity
3-bitcointalk thread pages/activity
4-coin distribution (i.e 10 accounts hold >50% of the supply etc)
5-anonymous or known devs
6-lifespan of the coin


1. doesn't show much though. there have been shitcoins in the past that had a huge network activity at times.
2. it is a better criteria but not the easiest to measure.
3. not good at all. i can create a shitcoin do a giveaway and get a lot of newbie idiots to spam hundreds of pages in that thread. that doesn't make that shitcoin any better
4. this is good if you can measure it but since there are not "accounts" in cryptocurrencies you will have a hard time finding them properly. some coins are easier than others but some devs knew how to cover their tracks!
5. doesn't matter at all
6. doesn't matter much. there are shit/dead-coins that have been around for years and there are good projects that are young.

If I'm being honest, when I considered how this was done, I told myself these exact words: "I could just look at the source code, but I'm too lazy. I hope LoyceV or DarkStar_ sees this thread; once they do, they'll break it down for sure" Cheesy

OP, why don't you use market depth to gage and select the results, instead of market cap? (Shameless plug)

 Tongue

In case anyone wants to read the source code (pretty simple/readable), and are too lazy to find it, here's a link: http://doiownashitcoin.com/static/js/dioas.js

Sure, have fun guys lol as we seriously add to this, that will be history

The massive amount of engagement we received is unexpected, but humbled by it. Now that we understand how seriously people are taking this, we plan on incorporating more metrics...market depth is another good one, in addition to github stats perhaps, number of nodes, anon dev or not, and more. We can get creative. Earlier in the thread someone mentioned statistics similar to these as well. Ultimately we plan to start showing some metrics and thinking of fun features. We can show rankings of shittines or not-shittiness of coins haha

Going to start a newsletter as well which will be informative and still have our humor.

We can turn this in to some 'serious shit' lol

Appreciate the suggestion - always open to more feedback.
