Start coin sounds kind of complicated and carries a little drama with it. I guess I don't understand why litecoin isn't a viable option. Anywho, you can learn more at
www.litecoin.com.
There is nothing wrong with Litecoin, but I don't think it has that little something extra to become a true leader.
It really comes down to what the whales will do since it has such a high market cap compared to most altcoins.
At least one whale, maybe the biggest of them all, has clearly stated his intention with StartCOIN, just as he did with Litecoin back in the days (I think late 2013). He might be worth listening to.
Besides, StartCOIN is not so complicated - just take a look at the brand new
startcoin.comStill with the tunnel vision I see..
I keep harping on this to deaf ears LOL
A handful of pumpers and manipulators that loiter around here and a few other crypto related places is not going to amount to anything.
What do I keep harping on ?
THE WORLDnot this small subset of crypto currency enthusiasts like me that are into this sort of thing.
with out major general public adoption all these coins are doomed to go no where.
and no I am not impressed by market cap data like I said earlier.. premine 50% of the coins then buy some and proclaim
it's the greatest thing ever.. meanwhile I can do that by myself and a bit of Bitcoin etc
that illusion your harping on incessantly here Ducky is a joke and you know it.
does coinmarketcap.com have an asterisk beside the coin name ?
I think the Max Coin crew (or some of them from before) want to do a repeat of MAX's launch etc.
and their manipulative pump and dump on the scene where they made a ton of money.
problem is your not going to get away with it twice and user activity in crypto has died of for ages now.
AND we all got smarter too !
And "we" don't even matter.. when I said I don't like the name I meant for the consumption of the general public.
as in would
Start Coin be good for my grand parents (new to crypto stuff) etc
It all comes down to the whales ? ohh really ? LOL
good luck with that..
if you sucker every crypto-fanatic into buying StartCoin with their life savings it still won't amount to much.
compared to if another "coin" comes along that has something truly meaningful & tangible to offer
it could sweep the scene as fast as lightning over taking all market caps combined..
we're talking peanuts and chump change vs LOTS of money/profit potential.
and that is why I have kept coming here all this time..
because anytime a new "coin" could be put out that takes the scene, THEN the world by storm.
and I keep coming by to see if it's happened yet.
But at this point I am wondering if it's going to be a Github hosted open source "coin"
Or a professionally handled "currency" started and run by a large group such as Microsoft or some other heavy weight.
I haven't said anything new here I repeat myself like a broken record year after year..
and many of you keep picking another noun and tacking the word "coin" on the title and doing the Github dance LOL
Come to Bitcointalk.. spew bs.. get some market manipulation going on and proclaim its a success..
until it's forgotten soon after (when the small guys are drained dry of their cash)
Ask yourself why should there be more "coins" put out when there is already at least 7,000 of them ?
We needed 1 more Ducky ?
Why because it has a vaguely famous financial backer and a large market cap ?
