Clearly the Bitcoin killer will not come from Bitcointalk and won't be listed on any cryptocurrency exchanges.  It will simply bypass this subculture.

People say there  is no proof anyone wants a coin but is there any proof anyone wants smart contracts?  

People been posturing about smart contracts for a year now and have YET to provide one good use case example for it yet.

BTW Bitcoin only has around 5500 nodes, Ethereum around 300 and most alternates less than that.  Can 5500 servers around the world really hold data for all your hypothetical big multinational customers?

Who cares about this forum?  Only alternates people have heard of, in the real world which matters, is Litecoin and Doge.  I'm thinking people would sooner go over to Litecoin than to a coin with a mascot of a big fat yellow dog..

Nobody has heard of Ripple.  Ripple tried to do "deals" with many banks and companies, like Wells Fargo and Western Union, and yet it felled through each time.  Ripple has been doing these pump and dump announcements for years.  Ripple being located in the US means it'll probably get the eGold treatment.  Ripple already had a huge fine from FinCen.


 
Nobody has heard of Ethereum.  The Ethereum media machine is already slowing down (ran out of money) and only thing they ever really did was publish articles on cryptonews sites read by dozens and hundreds.   When the initial launch hype wears off, Ethereum will be joining Bitshares, NXT and the other 2.0s in capitalization & volume.



Monero?  Shut the f*ck up!

You make one mistake with Bitcoin, and eventually you will, then everyone who wishes to will be able to see what you have, where you got it, how you spend it, and when. They'll (given enough motive) kidnap your loved ones, or perform $5 wrench decryption on your wallets. They'll be able to track your weakness for Banh-mi every Thursday evening at 4:37 p.m. They'll be able to tell that your coins passed through a hacked and stolen webwallet, and blacklist them into unspendability.

Bitcoin deserves a place in history, but for my funds, I want something private, fungible and untraceable, none of which describes Bitcoin. But it does describe Monero.

I recognise that XMR has some potential because of its anonymizing features but let's face it we already got Dash (Darkcoin). besides, why Monero and not Bytecoin (BCN)?

Just the fact that it's a 100% open source, transparent project from scratch with fair launch and an ongoing active development, where privacy is hardcoded into the protocol and where a blocksize debate will never be an issue, makes Monero a big candidate for being the next major step in crypto evolution.

But yeah, XMR shills/trolls are a behated species all over here, that's why it's a shitcoin right? Roll Eyes

I believe that BTC is still the model T of digital currencies and as so I think that sooner or later a new crypto will emerge to take out Bitcoin as the main preferred digital currency.

So, What's your pick about what could be the next big crypto?
