I think it is better to keep Bitcoin related sections separate from "other" and then both separate from altcoins.
While you are it, change the name too. Maybe the design, servers. New posters also.
I wonder that we are already moving beyond simple notions of digital currency, sufficiently that it would be worth considering whether the structure of the forum here could be better. I'm aware of BTT's thought relative to simple altcoins but what is available is already more complex. If BTT wants to be useful it needs to reflect what blockchain technology is becoming.
I would suggest there are these classes of blockchain technology and as such there is a good opportunity to rationalise the forum to reflect these:
Class 1: Money
BTC certainly; and others whose ambition is principally to be the most simple digital altcoins. So, by all means keep a simple alt forum for LTC; DGC and others.
Class 2: Money transport
Ripple XRP - are there others? I'd be happy Ripple was separate.
Class 3: Tokens with value pegged to match other assets
BitShares bitUSD, bitCNY; bitGOLD etc; CounterParty assets; ?Peershares and whatever others are trying the same.
Class 4: Tokens that are explicitly linked to real world assets
Mastercoin [property tokens]; CounterParty-Overstock-market; BitShares DACs and perhaps Ethereum - distributed businesses et al exotic capabilities that are not Class 5.
Class 5: Zero value applications, such as private key signing.
Interesting proof of person applications and other zero value applications I haven't imagined.
Organising by type of capability might allow discussions to be more focused on what those capabilities are offering rather than shouting amongst a crowd of others. I expect it might help the main forum pair back down to be more directly Bitcoin focused too?
