even if cryptocurrencies have mostly gone wrong this summer, some really good coins have come out of that

Shadow in particular has proven in only one month, that crypto can innovate without always saying "too the moon", and with real developments.

Their list of developments is already amazing :

ShadowChat (instant p2p encrypted messaging): already released, and updated with richtext support.
ShadowChat demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra9E7Il6hps
ShadowChat whitepaper: ShadowChat Private Messaging: Instant p2p Encrypted Messaging

ShadowSend (uniquely implemented dual-key stealth addresses to be layered with zk-snarks):
ShadowSend demo: http://youtu.be/w-B1HuxNvFg

ShadowGo (first fully scalable & fully functional mobile PoS wallet):
First Android & iOS wallet with STAKING & ShadowSend & ShadowChat

And there was no ipo, premine, or anything wrong from the start  Smiley

lol not if you invested in NLG at the start. TBH never seen anything like it, it's now officially the top country coin.

Question is for how long.

I have never seen any country coin last longer than 6 months before it go bust.
Impossible to tell, Auroracoin is only 6 months and a few weeks old.
there wasn't country coins before...
I think its a fine time to enter crypto.  anyone interested in swing trading or shorting bitcoin well its had % change swings of 25% or more in the past week. without any real news to say its going one way or the other.
Anon is mostly figured out through cryptonote, XC, or Dark for anyone who cares about hiding their tracks.
Decentralized marketplaces are in their infancy. (bitshares, Aero, and everybody else trying to get something off the ground)
we're seeing app based blockchains (gameleaguecoin, mangocoin, hyper)
we are at the beginning of commodity backed coins (uro's billion dollar backers with their urea, cann's 4acre grow operation)
Aren't you guys happy we moved on from meme based coins? Maybe I'm blind but the rampant copycloning seems to have tapered off. every coin was a meme, then every coin was a country, then every coin had a color then every coin was pos then every coin was ipo then every coin was anon then every coin had a new algo, and every algo had a plain & pos & anon & ipo release.  We will still see these things.

I'm happy that the devs have continued to innovate theres a million ideas being kicked around. Theres tons of open source code to do some really innovative things I cant wait to see what they turn out to be!

Top 10 at bittrex $300,000 in trades in last 24 hours
Poloniex last 24 hour trades $150,000
Top 10 at Bter $275,000 in trades in last 24 hours
13.4 million worth of bitcoin have changed hands in last 24 hours.

Maybe your just depressed, and yeah theres been some crap in the past months. I dont see any reason people shouldnt be positive overall... Blockchain tech works, its being adopted, maybe the coin your involved in wont be there in the end, but some form of it will!

+1, best response I have heard in ages

Not just with bitcoin drops, and not only with all the altcoin scams, but just cryptocurrency as a whole is just extremely 'meh'.

What a horrible time for Crypto. No wonder people have been cashing out of alts and converting BTC to fiat for the past few weeks. No wonder alt market scene's volume is laughable compared to what it was just 2 months ago.


The smart ones dropped crypto weeks ago and is now sitting on fiat waiting for this phase to end while slowly accumulating cheap Bitcoins.

The dumb ones are the one continuously trading large BTC amounts in the alt scene constantly losing money by the day.



I feel sorry for all the noobs now just stepping in to Crypto. Literally the worst possible time..and dont get me started of how much worse its going to get if this 'expected' Bitcoin bubble doesnt come through..
