Topic: why so many currencies? - page 11. (Read 3055 times)
as I know only a few currencies are designed to be used for only payments and the others are for different purposes like insurance, trading, token swap ... and I believe that if they would accept coins as payments they would use just one or two of them,
Hi All,
Please help me understand in plain English how will we benefit from so many currencies?
I see so many startups with decentralized blockchain ideas with their own crypto currency.
Today I purchased oatmeal directly from a mill at their website.
This mill sells its products thru grocers and other online stores as well.
They probably gave 3% to the credit card company, which they could reduce by using blockchain.
But if every store and every business starts creating their own currency, then I will have to go thru an exchange to convert BTC or ETH to that coin to make some purchase.
Then we would need miners to process all those transactions in various coins.
Why can't they just use ETH? Just like all IPOs use dollars.
Thanks in advance

I think end of the year it will be more than 1600 in cpc. Many are not coins. Its token.
So many currencies you mean by the altcoins? I have questioned too and also by the way new altcoins are coming up everyday and like everywhere! I will be of the opinion that an ICO regulatory body be established to check up this. Also, there should be major coins for the purpose of exchange and trading.

Today, we have two types if currency now, one is the digital or the cryptocurrency and the traditional types of currencies, name a country and it has a corresponding currency.
We have many currencies maybe because of the country we are in. Countries have different leaders and values that also caused all countries have their own.
Everybody trying their luck. Everybody thinks that they can create a currency like bitcoin. That's whu lots of crypto right now.

It gives us more options for investment and it also avoids problems like hoarding since most of them are limited.
, so what i am trying to say is,there are more shit coins in the market than having options,just understand those simple things.
It is not important that a lot of cryptocurrency in the market even it is a good thing. I am getting happier when i heard a new project, new and usefull project. Because of them blockchain will rule all over the world.
I think many people have a huge misconception of what a 'currency' really is, legally speaking. Currency, by definition, is a legal tender issued by a central bank that is supported by a government. If you base your definition of currency as to anything that you can use to pay something, you are in the wrong because that may just be a 'barter', 'dation in payment' or any substitute that has monetary value. You have to very well familiarize yourself with these things as it will affect your understanding in terms of how you handle your money affairs.
Another point is, when you consider any substitute payment of fiat as currency, that would give ALL people the power to create their own 'currency'. This notion is, for all intents and purposes, contrary to common sense of men of intelligence. Just imagine a situation wherein people can invent their own currencies just because it is accepted as a form of payment. It is just outright absurd and disturbing.
Hence, while I am a believer of Bitcoin, I can say it is not a currency because it has not passed through legal processes. This goes out for all forthcoming cryptocurrencies, as well.

For me, a lot of people see the success of bitcoin and try to match it by making some new currency so some of them managed to make the price worthless a few hundred or thousand. If people buy into it it creates the need for their prices. Of course people will try their own ideas on the block chain, if it works for them later.

There are lot of crypto currencies right now because currencies in the past is already improving. Especially it is because technology really do improves to and bitcoin becomes more popular than before. Bitcoin is the most popular crypto currency and is known as the father or kinf of all crypto, so I guess bitcoin will be the inspiration of other crypto currencies to improve more.

First of all, I would like to highlight a point that all these currencies are useful because they are regulated and they are need it for the market. At first one bitcoin came there was no other cryptocurrency in the market so it was hard for people to get a grip on this but when the second cryptocurrency came in the market which is I guess bitcoin, has started the market competition anyway as you have said that why they do not take ETH that's because getting multiple cryptocurrencies is a much more profitable than a single one at least that will keep them in working inside the network.
The space is unregulated and everybody wants to get in on the chance at easy money, mixed in with a smaller proportion of people looking to develop unique and genuinely promising projects.
That'd be my 2cents.

For me there are already so many. There are stupid investors who invest their money in any project even though there is no development plan that is so honest and the idea is not new.
now too many coins for choice. but not all have a nice future. you want to make a profit on some coins. you can pick coins that have good projects and keep growing. it will give me many advantages. only now it is hard to find such coins. better buy old coin coins. because it has a good future. such as eth, ltc, str, xrp, waves, nxt.
Basically, because they’re relatively straightforward to make, and an ICO seems like a fast way to make money.
It’s not too hard for a skilled software architect to essentially recreate Bitcoin with a different initial ledger, or different set of choices like hash function or block size.

Well really you say it's a lot of coin types of altcoin or other crypto coins but that makes it different just because of the many developers who want to make their own currency.
