Ok, but this returns only 4 Majors :
1- Bitcoin
2- Litecoin
3- result of ETH/ZCASH
4- result of ETC/ZCLASSIC
5- result DASH/XMR
Are these the only cryptos we know about ? how about lisk, wave, nxt, PPC ...
NXT retired, NXT 2.0 beeing ARDOR. This information is still valid?
PPC has brought us POS staking but the strange similarity of this list of 5 is they are all POW based, markets are happy about deflationary concepts. Which is just completely wrong from the fundamentals, since mining AND staking can produce the exactly same amount of newly generated coin supply (inflation). Just that stakers dont give a damn and dump, versus miners tend to hodl.
LSK is on my watching list. Can't tell much about WAVES, sorry.
Would add Byteball if it makes it onto any major tradesite. And now we derailed from
"world has room for" onto
"which place to reserve in your bags" @Febo: two coins each human beeing, and the deflationary limited supply concept is dust in the hot desert.
I know about NXT, it is just that i used to call him like that, now it is ARDOR, still valid.
You know, Black coin uses some algorythms to manage the total available coins, it is not fixed in the blockchain, so it can change, they let people stack at a fixed %, and adapt the total coins to keep the inflation rate around 1%, even if it is not a stable rate, the inflation is contained to ~1%, you should check them.

Personally I think Dash/XMR are not exactly in direct competition.
I think XMR is significantly more private, and more likely to be used for less legal trading. I think Dash is going for the mainstream with ease of use and instant transactions.
I think XMR is competing with CloakCoin, ZCash, ShadowCash and all that lot at the moment, dont really think Dash has a direct competitor with the finances it has available for marketing and promotion, currently.
I did this because a lot of people thinks that DASH and XRM are in competition, mainly because of some guys on the forum arguing that XMR will beat DASH, but i know that both currencies are different, either in algos, development, philosophy.
I like the idea behind dash, but i don't think he will survive at the next update, their code is clean, quick to sync, not laggy like some coins. But the features brings him on a dangerous path i think.
For XMR, well, i don't hear that much from him, i don't know what is happening to this coin, nor the development path, but i don't really support full privacy coins because they attract shady users, and it can harm crypto-currencies reputation.
But i understand that people needs privacy, this is why i think that a simple TOR wallet is enough, the transactions don't really have to be annonymous.
