Topic: Viacoin - next big thing 2018 (Read 274 times)

Don't fool yourself.

Even with Lightning Network Daemon (LND), coins Via can't achieve mass adoption and move over Bitcoin. My prediction is that Via will lurking around $1.5-$3 in next year.

VIA reaching $170 is a pretty big forecast which seems a little unrealistic at this stage but if all of the roadmap is accomplished there'll surely be a lot more value added to this


Not sure anything will be replacing Bitcoin anytime soon

I'm trying to understand this so if any of you folks can help me it would be really appreciated.

I'm a software developer for more than 15 years and I spend an hour looking viacoin on github. The only changes made by viacoin devs are changing the readme files, version numbers and rebranding of bitcoin core code.
From my analysis every functionality is back-ported from the codebase of another larger project.

Hence my question, is there a place to see the actual innovation happening in viacoin and what makes it different from the other larger projects like btc/ltc/eth ?

A good coin on blockhain bitcoin made to fight and compete with smart ether contracts. But they do not yet have a platform and people just look around whether it's worth their investment. If the developers really all do what they promise, then I think for bitcoin will be a good replacement.

This dip is probably one of the bests points to buy VIA. The price is on levels of July 17, right before core 0.15 release. And with whole the roadmap VIA is a good choice both for couple weeks and several months investment.

Absolute true, if you look at 2017, the devs did great work,

Some interesting posts/news to read about

short intro of Via

little history

investment review

what is VIACOIN

I see the fundamentals of the coin is strong enough, enough to hodl it even long term. Though I need more research to go invest in this coin, this article of yours is really informative and catched my attention. Hope this coin would moon real soon.

Yeah but if you invest 1k right now and the coin hits his ATH again it would be an fantastic win!

I believe in Via, but right now, I'll settle for it just getting back to its ATH. That's like x28. Don't mind having that back right now

The OP is right about the tech, it's the best "coin" there is. The price won't get that high this year though. Who cares, this is one for the long-term.

$170?

3.9 billion market cap and in top 10?
everything this in 2018?   
I think that won't happen,  first lets see when it will return to its ATH.

Wow.      $ 170th that is very high. I think that it does not happen. 23004548 Coins x 170 =   
No. that will not happen. this is a dream of a user here and no reality .

The tech part of this project is really good, however, it needs to drive attention. I believe it could easily reach top 50 by the end of this summer if they hire good growth hackers.

This was the next big thing for 2017 but nothing brother.
Don't bullshit us with $170 price target. That has a 0% chance of happening in 2018.

Real talk man, be more realistic.

the project seems promising
as i know , bittrex just have a potential coins .
and binance also good for volume.
potential for pump, i guess

Please check the roadmap from 2017 and you will see that they completed 90% already.

I am therefore optimistic that they will make it again this year

What I see here is the team playing with all the good things in the space, all those good features in other projects they want to implement it in their own project but when you look at the quality of the developing team you start to ask question if they can deliver on this. I personally don't think the team can develop on all their promises

That seems good but those developments need too much time and many developer. It is easy to write such roadmap as most projects do. But it does not anymore pump the price.

This is decent altcoin and Roadmap, white paper clear to explain everything so it will reach good position in future. But peoples are looking to top trending coins so ViaCoin is the survive in longterm but it will not reach high marketcap in soon.

I read every day about supposedly great project in the crypto market. Many of the coins have no working products and there is only one hype.
From a technical point of view, there are only a few really strong projects. One of them is Viacoin. Technically, it's way ahead of bitcoin, litecoin and vertcoin.
The roadmap last year was respected by the developers and there are more great developments coming up this year. The community at viacoin is growing and
I recommend anyone to deal with viacoin.

If the developers can implement the roadmap I see a huge growth potential for Viacoin.

The coin has been around since 2014 and is well established and technically stands out from 99% of all other coins. With a current market capitalization of $ 35,942,110
and a coin price of $ 1.56 and rank 214 on coinmarketcap it is highly undervalued compared to most other projects. My personal estimate of price development is the
price target of $ 170 at the end of 2018, which equals x100.

Viacoin is listed on the stock exchanges binance, bittrex, Upbit and Poloniex


The roadmap for this year includes:

- Chainstate Database Restructure
Transition from per-transaction model to a per-output model

- Valid Block Assertion
Assume valid blocks

- P2P Network Optimization
Concurrency

-UTXO Mempool Optimization
UTXO cache claiming unused mempool

-Block Relay Improvements
Relaying Optimization

-Schnorr signatures
The successor of Elliptic Curve Digital Signatures

-MAST (Merkelized Abstract Syntax Trees)
Node Interaction with Merkle Trees

-RSK Smart contracts
Ethereum Compatible Smart Contracts

- No keypool refill flush

-Colored Coins

-Upgrade LevelDB

-Lightning Network Daemon (LND)
Faster & cheaper than Bitcoin

-ZAP Lightning Network Wallet

-ViacoinJ

- Styx Anonymous Transactions


Make your own research, check the roadmap, read the whitepaper and let me convince you.
