Lol it's not the fucking algorithm the problem. Vertcoin would launch with the same feature with a 2 week mining and then POS and I'm 100% convinced that the market cap of VTC would be closer to 10M than to 1M.
I used to mine and all I was thinking about was to ROI my rigs. Now I made 10x on my investment and I cannot affort to have high inflation coin in my portfolio in a bear market.
XMR is imo a MUCH better coin than VTC and one of the best around and I cannot have it in my portfolio as the inflation is 90 BTC PER DAY DO YOU EVEN REALIZE. THAT'S FUCKING Huge. Believe me that XMR is going to have the same problem as VTC is having right now very very soon. You will see it's price cut by 80% as soon as it's less of a hot commodity.
Coins with high inflation :
Doge had and as soon as their inflation settled down it started stabilizing and then climbing back some
LTC str8 down
MYR str8 down
VTC str8 down
Quark fixed it and now they are stabilized
DRK fixed it and they stabilized and then moon
XMR str8 down too
Coins with low inflation are able to find some kind of floor even if they are running cold.
Coins with low inflation/no inflation
BC : On it's floor/trading range
CINNI : On it's floor/trading range
VRC : Consolidating/trading range
XC: Consolidating/trading range
NXT : Consolidating/trading range
VOOT : Consolidating/trading range
Good coins with decent/good innovation are going through cycles too but the difference between POW and POS is at certain floors bag holder are LESS likely to drop. Pow coins, have new bag holders day after day who just dump their new bags to investors but guess what NO FUCKING INVESTOR WANT TO HAVE 40-100% INFLATION, so it's just dump city.
I wanted to invest 20k in VTC but I won't until inflation is totally fixed with a dynamic block reward that will be function of the marketcap/difficulty. The bigger the market cap, the higher the price, the more miner there is and the less reward there should be to maintain the same integrity of the system.
Xmr is highly deflationary, after 2 years 80% of the coins are mined if it proofs utility it will be successfull. Ltc is far more inflationary and has a much higher price without much utility so far.
Drk goes down too even with their low inflation:
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/cryptsy/drkbtc , its nearly 3x less than the ATH
BC goes down too:
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/mintpal/bcbtc it goes just down from the ATH, its like 5x less than the ATH
Cinni? down too:
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/mintpal/cinnibtcXC too:
https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/mintpal/xcbtci am not even looking at the other coins and all pure pos coins u mentioned are insecure by design, look up the nothing-at-stake problem which prolly cant be solved.
PoS is just a hype for scammers (i am not talking about blackcoin, they seem to have noble intentions but all those short mining phase pow/pos coins who are just clones) like the countrycoins before that...and i cant even remember what was before that...
The market is overflooded with scams and "shitcoins", its all about pump and dump and greed has taken over completly, people have no interest in cryptocurrencies and the money flows from 1 coin to the next for fiat/btc profit, thats all that counts.
