RE: Ten Years of Bitcoin

in #bitcoin6 years ago

Nice article, Gray.

Reading things like this really make me wish I had gotten on board the crypto train years ago; not just for money or for trading purposes (though that would be nice as well), but because of the fact that this is one of the most important changes to the socioeconomic climate of the 21st century.

What is happening with bitcoin and altcoins right now has the potential to change the financial landscape of the entire world, and I am still blown away by the fact that this technology isn't more mainstream by now. It's gaining some headway, but it's still not there.

As for my vision of the future, I really like Stellar Lumens, and I am hoping that the Starlight system they're currently demoing will be as useful in practice as it is in theory. I also believe in their vision for bringing banking to the unbanked.

Cardano is pretty unique in what it does (or will do...), but I'm still waiting on them to break out. I believe in the idea of ADA though. Their next roadmap update is coming soon.

Qtum is a currency I had high hopes for, but they seem to be buckling a bit on their proposed roadmap. I still hold mine, but I don't know for how long.

And lastly, Pivx. Of all the privacy coins, I really believed in their vision. A bit has changed from my perspective, and I sold mine after s3v3nh4cks, once of their founders, showed a serious lack of character in my dealings with him. Solid currency, pitiful leadership/representation.

I hold a few others, but no great sum of anything, really. It's just change at the moment, until my wife graduates school.

What coins will you be holding Gray? Are there any that really stick out in your mind as being a cut above the rest?

Sort:  

Currently I hold Litecoin cash, Steem, and Smoke. I enjoy DPOS but I also see value in a Hiveminng setup on PoW. (DYOR) I'm not a huge fan of cardano, privx, or QTum. The reason being is that I haven't used any DAPPs or services that utilize them. I tend to only hold coins I use frequently and transact with. I don't see much point in holding a coin I don't have a use for in real life.
