Altcoins were developed only so that people could mine on commodity hardware and it be impossible to mine on GPUs FPGAs ASICs... oh shit, why do they exist now?
Maybe it is time you take a strong look at Nxt!    Wink
No thanks, I took a long hard look at bitcoin and liked what I saw and still like it today.
You were discussing Altcoins if I am not mistaken...    Undecided

Not really, I was dissing them.


Regardless...  there is an answer to your question...    Roll Eyes
I hate to be pedantic but I wasn't... oh forget it Tongue

Hence the drop of GPU support after 3.8. I agree alts are a side show, like clowns. IMHO they're only good for pump n dumps to make more btc Smiley

Bitcoins are to dollars as altcoins are to dimes.

When I have enough dimes.........

You can call them clowns all you want but I make my kids tuition payments with the altcoins I mine.

Bitcoins too, just for the record.

Just remember there are many altcoins that are 4000% more profitable than Bitcoins and at least TWICE as stable.

Everytime China farts BTC crashes.

This is nonsense. Perhaps alts are 4000% more profitable than Bitcoins if you're trying to mine both using a GPU, but no-one is mining BTC with GPUs right now.

The Antminer S1 is $450 right now and will earn around $9.50 a day. I don't think any scrypt mining hardware can come close to returning $9.50 per day with a $450 hardware investment right now.
I like the way you think. keep thinking like that, cuz it lowers the diff for me. I am beating BTC by a couple percent with SHA alts nearly every day. Think what you could do with a couple gridseeds...

I did imagine what I could do with a couple of Gridseeds, and it gives me nightmares. Gridseed miners are quite possibly the worst hardware buy available right now. Each one costs around $200 for 400 MH, and pays a earns a paltry $1 per day, with means they will take ~200 days to ROI not including power costs and difficulty increases.

It takes ~5.6 MH right now to earn a single litecoin per day, which is worth a whopping $14 each.

About the only thing worse than buying Gridseed miners right now would be pre-ording a Titan.   Smiley

a temp restraining order is not granted by a judge, it is an order which can be 'purchased' prior to an actual hearing... all it does is instigates a hearing by an actual court/judge.

Maybe KnC have very good relations and they can get it faster. They do chips for 10 years. Can't be all in vain.
It was ORSoC first ASIC. They had FPGA code, ALCHIP did all the job.
Relations won't help here. Double Patterning takes times.
4-5 months to samples.

Guys, don't get in this pissing match. If AVENGER is taking the KnC side of the argument, you're likely wrong.

You're off to an amazing start with your own beastie. Let it lie. KnC is quite capable of digging their own grave. Also quite capable of pulling a rabbit out of their ass. You can't call this one.

i thought i'd dabble with an alt coin... tried a PoS one, it's a crock of shit, buggy as hell and totally pointless.

I am thinking I will likely have to start mining the alt-coins that support ASIC miners and turning them into BTC's to get ahead, unless the amount of Bitoin's in the world increase from 11 million to whatever the next increment is. But Bitcoin will never die. Smiley



i'm dabbling - mining SHA alt coins, trading them for BTC and ploughing it all into cloud mining - if you can't beat them, join them.
That's exactly the thing that will increase the value back into BTC, and starve off the alts a bit. Exactly what I expect most Titan owners will do. Mass roaming altpool Titans trading all their alts for BTC

There's more to it. Most alts are going to have a short life span. Some will not. I don't think LTC is going to be a big winner, because they have managed inadvertently to establish themselves as the "also ran" coin. A great many of them are just people playing or scamming. But there are a few that have some serious potential. It's in the dumps right now, but the horse I'm officially backing is Earthcoin. It's designed to be a global cheap currency, and it's ASIC mineable. I know a couple guys mining it with gridseeds already.

Bitcoin is the trailblazer. I don't see it dying, but I don't see it being the ultimate winner either. It has some limitations to its success, such as transaction times and a lot of negative press. This will allow it's competitors to exploit it's known problems for their gain. This in turn will strengthen the eco system. I see the development of scrypt asics as a very positive development.

But some things need to happen that haven't yet. Ready transference in and out of various fiat currencies, Point of Sale systems OUTSIDE of the internet, and more trading pairs. While I find it personally offensive, DOGE is likely to be a big winner in the asic age, because it's already a big winner. This also lends more credence to my long standing postulate that Einstein was fundamentally wrong. The Universal Constant is NOT the speed of light. It's perversity. I see evidence in favor of this every single day.

One way or another, Bitcoin has changed currency forever. I think it's likely to remain the "standard" by which other coins are judged, but I don't think that it will always be king of the hill.

Altcoins will be finished when Titan arrives....Think about it.

Flood of Vertcoin knockoffs in 3... 2... 1...
Because centralized supercomputers and giant server clusters can never mine Vertcoins ...
