To all the Quark haters. I did not really support Quark until after seeing the amount of interest it brought on this poll. Luckily I was able to put my differences aside and invest into it. Now that I am up 4x what I put into it I am not disappointed. After all isn't the success of any of these coins directly correlated to the attention it brings from the community?
So you are saying that an easily manipulated poll can persuade your opinion? lol Let me guess. "baAAAAaaAaAaaAAaaa" is your life moto too?
Could this poll be manipulated by someone with multiple accounts? Definitely! Do I think they created 151 accounts to do so? Absolutely not. Just look at the QRK volume being traded right now on all exchanges. It is second only to BTC & LTC in volume of BTC traded. So if 1 person did manipulate this poll they are also dumping thousands of BTC into QRK which I highly doubt.
The truth is that with over 1000 votes now this is a pretty good approximation of where community support is heading in relation to certain alt coins.
I also have heavily invested in WDC, LTC, SBC, DGC, SXC and of course I have some BTC. I refuse to support Megacoin. But I am not putting putting all my "Eggs" in one basket.
Why can't there be multiple successful crypto currencies? This is not a winner take all game. Doesn't Visa, MasterCard, Discover & American Express all do the same thing?
Right now BTC is becoming more & more centralized as ASIC mining power is being consolidated into the hands of fewer and fewer people. This goes against why BTC was originally founded. We are now seeing the emergence of specialized ASIC Mining companies. This is not good for the future of BTC. Also the block chain is getting bloated, there are some serious issues arising with transaction times. I believe BTC will one day be surpasses-ed by an alt coin as it's own initial success will bring its demise.
Just as Napster paved the way for others to follow, so will BTC. Long story short, this poll has given me a better indication of what to invest in than any other resource out there. So far it has payed off handsomely!
So you are saying that 10 people couldnt make 15 accounts a piece to manipulate the poll results? And we think quack is more popular then litecoin? You're right. I'm sorry for doubting the almight quack. They would never do anything shady like pay people to donate to bill still. Or did we forget that thread?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/poll-which-alt-coin-will-see-the-most-growth-in-2014-359521You really think the community is heading towards coins like quark? Instamined trash? Seriously? Have you not been reading the same threads I have? Most of the community that isnt quark openly says quark is a scam.
I'm not saying multiple cryptos cant be successful. No where in my post did I say anything like that. I'm saying quack is manipulated trash branded to idiots. FFS They have a "how to answer the premine question" post everywhere. When you have to carefully answer a question like that. You are a scam. Simple as that.

http://www.cryptocoincharts.info/#jump-qrk-btc9073926 Qrk were traded yesterday. That's roughly 3% of all QRK in one day on 3 lesser known exchanges. 2407 BTC traded for QRK, more than any other alt except for LTC.
There was roughly 200,000 BTC traded yesterday on all exchanges. That's about 1% of all BTC in circulation.
BTC was "premined" and so was LTC. That's how the system works. Quark stands a much better chance of actually being used as a transactional currency than does BTC. Point should be made here that I also heavily support Digitalcoin for this reason. It had a much fairer launch.
Yes Quark has some issues. I myself am skeptical about what will happen in January when 99% have been mined. A steady stream of new coin keeps miners interested and keeps the network strong.
Most early miners who had millions of Quark have sold off. As was exhibited by the jealously of the former quark miner that directed quarkcoin.org to the Megacoin site.
For what its worth, my single vote on this poll went to World coin as that is where I am the most heavily invested.
Are you another one of those early Quark miners that sold out early and is now pissed so yourself and is trying to take down the coin? Either way #'s don't lie. Buy in while its still cheap.
