Hello guys. Which currency you prefer? I don't have any of them and I am thinking about investing in one of them. Which will have bigger success?
Or you think I should invest in original Bitcoin? Is Bitcoin Core planning to solve scalability issue anytime soon?
my opinion is 7 tx/s is ridiculously, hilariously low, the fact that I once had to pay a $50 fee to move my money (when i held BTC) is insane, the energy usage is unsustainable. and the development direction is questionable - if BTC had upped blocksize to 8MB nobody would have died, fees would not have rose crazily like they did, BCH would never have happened, LTC would have no reason to compete, BTC would be seen as a more viable currency.
I'm a Nano fan - fast, free, and as scalable as it gets pre-sharding - only issue is whether there is enough incentive to run a rep, and whether a system will evolve to spread the vote allotment of reps (currently a few dev reps have >50% of voting power because they are the default reps in current wallets, which is centralization, but people are free to choose other reps and decentralize it - and my bet is they will over time) which we will see. with the tech of nano available, and BTC still not adopted most places (and actually losing adoption sometimes), i see nano or similar as inevitable.
if you are all about direct incentives, ETH will be cheap, fast and sustainable once PoS and sharding come through.
XLM is a strong contender as well, very cheap and fast (bad investment at the moment in my opinion due to large supply in control of creators)
i also think privacy features may be necessary for true censorship resistance. nano and BTC doesn't have that, but if you want full censorship resistance, you may be inclined to go with Monero.
basically, I think BTC has a lot of competition with huge advantages compared to BTC, and BTC's network effect is not large enough to prevent them from taking over.
i dont really get what you mean by "be gamed at a low market cap".
