Topic: What are Altcoins??? (Read 966 times)
I foresee a day when the word "altcoin" is obsolete.
Instead, the term will be something like "a token of value on a blockchain",
the shorter expression being "cryptocoin" or just "coin".
i believe that this can happen too. someday altcoin will simply be called something like cryptocurrency and not just alternatives.Instead, the term will be something like "a token of value on a blockchain",

The word "currency" should fly out of window too.
It carries too much historical baggage since it has been always
associated with nation-state money.
Token and Coin are fine. What they denote is of
secondary importance anyway, as it is the underlying
blockchain tech that matters the most.
There is no real "altcoins", just coins or cryptocurrency.
I think for segregation of forum categories, the term altcoin was chosen because Bitcoin itself had a large forum.
That's the only reason I see how the term was made.
Some are just coins (by themselves), others have things like markets and additional feature sets that show promise for better technologies.

but we are far from that day, and there is no coin yet that have that potential to reach that stage IMO.
all the altcoin market is just pump and dumps, this is why altcoins are often refered to as shitcoin.

I might be wrong but... isn't there ten thousand threads about this already?

There is a list of 645 altcoins and their prices at this link.
http://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/
Everything on it excluding bitcoin is an altcoin. The default prices are in USD and if you want them in bitcoin then click the USD drop down and select bitcoin from the list.
There are more altcoins besides those on the coinmarketcap.com page but they are unlikely to be traded on exchanges.
