I really doubt that we will see a coperate crypto at all.
They could easily launch a coupon system, but a crypto currency would need to be defented in an expensive lawsuit. Bitcoin can't be sued just outlawed, but that company would be an easy target. There is no benefits for a company in comparison so why take the huge risks and a guranteed lawsuit. In my jurisdiction they can devalue coupons after 3years and that is a nice additional reward since some people are idiots and forget about them.

Good point, I guess part of what is making this whole thing "work" is the distributed nature of the architecture, a single company would incur a ton of liability if the currency "crashed" or was manipulated.
Bitcoin will be the most powerful I expect.
I'm interested in some of the smaller currencies, it will be interesting to see if any "businesses" create their own currency, the Amazon coin announcement made me think for a second, until it became obvious it was just a token system. A large operation like Amazon could further legitimize the currency model and would have a large enough selection of saleable goods to make it work for the general public.

NVC has been a steady riser these past months while most other alt's have been fluctuating wildly, it's my dark horse pick.
I think Bitcoin will have some ups and downs but it will remain on top, point in case is if you look at alot of the transactions for other virtual currencies it is apparent that people are shuffling their other odd currencies "up" into BTC for holding.
Litecoin is great, I think the best analogy I heard was comparing bitcoins to "gold" and Litecoin to "silver" more volatile, but still valuable.
Feathercoin impresses me but it almost looks like the "wave" of people chasing the next big thing has moved there, upping the difficulty and thereby decreasing rewards.

I think LTC may give BTC a good competition. Whoever wins that may be dethroned by an unknown contender.
We may end up with many different crypto currencies each with a strong enough network of support to outlast our individual lives.
Different cryptos excel in differing areas like anonymity, speed, security, stability, usefulness of "work" etc. We have hardly scraped the surface of possibility.

I think LTC will be The cryptocoin after BTC, I also have more Litecoin than bitcoin (in fiat money)
Hope Gox will accept it soon!
I also have some namecoins, since I think that's the most promising after BTC and LTC, but what do I know :-)

Bitcoin will probably be the strongest in 2 years, but I'm thinking LTC could start to gain value since there are so many GPU miners out there.
YACoin - probably the most ASIC proof coin. This means you can mine it on CPU or GPU for a very long time. I guess it will be mined by lots of people in the future (because of the rising difficulty of Litecoin and all SHA256 coins), which means it will become interresting for shops and exchanges.
Why should it be interesting for shops, when a lot of people mine it?Those want to get rid of the coins for money, but you need people that want the coin.
Copper Lark - there is a big chance of becoming one of the major coins.
Could you provide some details why you belive that ...I've looked around, but there wasn't much english info aviable. It uses a new hash algo, but that's all I found out and just a different algorithm wouldn't make it worth mentioning at all.
BitCoin and LiteCoin (I hope

1) Bitcoin
2) Litecoin
3) Primecoin (might even surpass all others)

LTC ( litecoin ) in my opinion
BitCoin and LiteCoin.
Bitcoin.
Most adopted, most protected against double spending with new ASIC-enforced mining infrastructure.
Maybe PPCoin will rise too, because it is now 3rd widely recognised and PoS makes it resistant to 51% attack.

Personally, i think that it will be similar to this
Bitcoin BTC: used predominantly as a store of wealth and big purchases, (anonymous) - the first ever
Litecoin LTC: for smaller purchases (anonymous) and also as a store of wealth. - the first scrypt
Bottlecaps CAP/BOT: as an everyday currency (not anonymous) like novacoin - scrypt PoW and Pos but unlike novacoin bottlecaps has no premined coins.

I don't see how copycat coins without something new can make it. A clone of bitcoin needs to offer something different. Hence why Bitbytes will fail and why feathercoins will find it hard.
