Topic: Which Altcoin are you currently supporting, and Why? - page 2. (Read 8138 times)

I am supporting ETH and QTUM because of its strong blockchain technology and community support. I also support Firstblood, ANT, and GNT as well.

Dash -  it has superior features to bitcoin and a strong dev team and community. They have the resources to push mass adoption.

lbry - The library domain network will appeal to a lot of people who have been put off by youtube, google ect. The blockchain based media that allows creators to get paid directly from consumers looks amazing and the fact that even young people can earn lbry to pay their consumption will get some top talent on the network.

Myriad - This is a miner's coin, it can be mined on CPU, GPU or ASIC so I think like Burst it'll keep grabbing people's attention. Even if it does not have a secondary use as of yet.

I'm supporting monero, and that is why I think anonymity features need to be added to bitcoin or we run the risk there is a difference between coins and that will affect the fungibility of the coins and without it bitcoin cannot be a true currency.

Augur, simply the uses that such tech can provide are revolutionary. Gnosis as well.

CryptoBullion
One of the 1st cypto.
Did not manage to climb but goods project in the drawers

Currently, I am supporting the SONM project because it shows many new features than others like GNT, The SONM project seems to have a totally paradigm shift, and it goes beyond the current use of cryptography.

Check the SONM project to find out more details:

I support the OMNI
it's a big opportunity to develop a lots of assets in this system like as ETH

that's interesting. LTC remains stable within $29 range in average which is good sign for the long term. ETH however, is something no one should miss as it keeps raising towards to top. XRP was very competitive overtaking ETH last month and now we can see the ETH community to win the competition and get their currency to the second place.

Future is bright for ETH and LTC indeed. Time will come

currently Supporting :

Aidos ( ADK ), fully Anon, DAG based , scalable, no transfer fee

ETC  , i did get in early and i hold it just because i hate ETH


In the past :

Monero
Dash

Verge,ViaCoin,blitzcash 
Verge because it is undervalued at the current price.
Viacoin great development team and solid tech.
blitzcash because stratis is gonna release it as their first side chain and it's still cheap at current price.

I'm supporting dash and zcash because the community is very friendly and if you're interested in altcoin mining, dash is a good alternative here.

I support the Bitcoin and Ethereum also Torcoin, because as you can see value of each coins were started to growing up that's why I invest high amount to this altcoins as shown of support to their project s.

The ones in my Exodus wallet the most. But I also trade everyday and some very small alts if I have a good gut feeling about it. I just made 100% on one of them there are very profitable alts out there!

i was stick for major altcoin such as ETH ,LTC ,Monero and Doge only because i thought the community for these coin was getting bigger so i might be will support them and do not forget too the price was pretty good for them so i'm optimistic there is possibility the price will increase again in the near future

I'm supporting PSB. 

LBRY- due to the recent backlash against youtube by content creators. Someone will need to step in soon.

DCORP(ico)- because of the potential for derivatives in the community.

I Support myself by not telling peoples what are the best altcoins to invest.
if more people buy it it gonna turn to be very slow growth.
the best ones, better to buy them cheap and hold them weeks or months before every one detect them.

technically yes. litecoin if faster since they are improving the technology.

So litecoin is pretty similar to Bitcoin, correct?

There are five categories that I support the best altcoin for this year
1) Monero
Using the power of a distributed peer-to-peer consensus network, every transaction is cryptographically secured. Individual accounts have a 25 word mnemonic seeds displayed when created, which can be written down to back up the account. Account files are encrypted with a passphrase to sure they are worthless if stolen. Monero uses a cryptographic voice system that lets you send and receive funds without your transactions seen publicly in blockchain (a distributed transaction ledger). This ensures that purchases, receipts, and other transfers remain private by default. By utilizing a ring signature, a special property of a particular type of cryptography, Monero allows transactions that can not be tracked. This means the ambiguous funds that have been incurred, and thus it is highly unlikely that a transaction can be attributed to a particular user.

2) Litecoin
Litecoin is a peer-to-peer Internet currency that allows instant payment payments close to zero to anyone in the world. Litecoin is an open source, fully globalized payments network without central authority. Math secures the network and empowers individuals to control their own finances. Litecoin has faster transaction confirmation times and better storage efficiencies than the leading mathematical currencies. With substantial industry support, trading volume and liquidity, Litecoin is a proven commercial medium with Bitcoin.
Blockchain Litecoin is capable of handling higher transaction volumes than its counterparts - Bitcoin. Because of the more frequent block generation, the network supports more transactions without the need to modify the software in the future.
As a result, traders get faster confirmation time, while still having the ability to wait for more confirmation when selling larger ticket items.
Wallet encryption lets you secure your wallet, so you can view your account transactions and balances, but are prompted to enter your password before you spend litecoins.
It provides protection from viruses thieves wallets and trojans as well as sanity checks before sending payment.
The current miner is provided with 25 new litekins per block, the amount halved every 4 years (every 840,000 blocks).
Therefore, the Litecoin network is scheduled to produce 84 million litecoin, which is 4 times as many units of currency as Bitcoin.

3) Ethereum
Ethereum is a decentralized platform running smart contracts: apps that run exactly as programmed without the possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third-party intrusions. This app runs on custom-made blockchain, a powerful shared global infrastructure that can move the value around and represent ownership of the property. This allows developers to create a market, keep a list of debts or appointments, move funds according to instructions given long ago (like a will or futures contract) and many other undiscovered things, all without middle man Or counterparty risk.
