Ask Steemit: What Is Your Favorite Cryptocurrency Other Than STEEM And Why?
Lets try something different today, how about a post which will only ever be anything if a comment section forms.
Is there a crypto which you like? What is it? Why do you like it? Do you want to blindly support a particular coin? Well look through the comments and vote on the people who talk about things which share your opinion!
Even better, talk shit on people who don't agree with you. This is the internet, isn't anonymous shit talking 90% of why we are all here?
My favorite was also LTC. Because I used to use convert STEEM/SBD->LTC then -> fiat rupees because it was faster than ETHER or BTC transactions.
Never realized LTC was a good method to convert to fiat. I always used BTC but LTC would have been faster. ... Hmm.
And with less fees :)
There was a time it was better to use DASH for this, but lately LTC is better again fee-wise.
Vechain, fantastic ecosystem, it will be the future XD!
for some reason i prefer Litecoin. I don't know the more technical stuff, but i consider it a low cost form of bitcoin without too much fees. I have around a little more than half of it, so i don't think i am qualified as someone to talk :P
Also, i believe ripple will have a future. I have 0, i want to buy some, i don't know it's uses but what i know is that banks are behind it. That in my dictionary means profit not because i trust the banks and these people but i trust their greed
Yep
litecoin... been mining it and hoarding it since all the way back in late 2012. :)
Very cool! Good to see some people who have been around the scene since "before it was cool"
it was definitely not cool.... hot AMD GPUs running 24/7....
Yeah, I used to mine as well. The more annoying aspect for me was the noise of my miners.
Oh, BAT without a doubt. I like it cos I use it, cos it's a working product not promises, cos the creator has a track-record... It doesn't seem to be very popular in the crypto world, for some reason.
EDIT: When I say I use it I mean the browser. But I guess by using it I'm also using BAT, since the sites I visit get paid, including steemstem.io. Which I haven't been using as much lately btw cos I can't connect (and vote) via steemconnect, it says my acc doesn't exist. What's up with that?
steemSTEM.io doesn't get paid unless you pay it with the brave browser. Until they release the ability to earn BAT for viewing adds it's going to be only minimally useful. However when they fully deploy, I think they have a strong application. It's why I set up steemSTEM.io to be able to receive BAT. :)
Maybe it can help fund development.
Also, hint hint, publish your posts on steemSTEM.io and make @steemstem a 5% beneficiary and you will receive a larger vote. :)
Ah, that's cool! Also it turns out I couldn't connect via steemconnect because of the Brave browser! Something happened after the latest update. I can connect with Chrome just fine. So next time I'll try posting with steemSTEM.io!
Posting with steemstem.io is sometimes a challenge sometimes for no discernible reason. I couldn't get my latest post to submit today, despite having no issues before. So if your next attempt works, or doesn't let me or lemouth or well anyone know about your experience. We can't fix things and make a truly usable product with out the data from real attempts. :)
Man.. This is really hard the way things are going now. Over the last couple of years I have been really into several coins. Particularly Enjin Coin. I actually still do believe in this project, but ended up dumping my stake that I've been holding since the ICO.
It isn't their fault, but I just can't wait for the price to drop to zero and recover while they drag their heels getting all the things that they promised to a finished state. I may buy back in later, but for now I'm all in on STEEM. At least here I can put my stake to use for me. To be honest, I feel like this is really the only project that has put its coin to work in a real way.
I think a lot of projects are doing some really cool stuff, but it is taking too long, meanwhile the market just keeps taking a beating. About 90% of the projects that I was interested last year promised a lot, but really did nothing. It seemed like every day 20 new coins came out with some really amazing idea but nothing ever came of them.
I have to say, I am quite surprised that Steem is not a top 10 coin being that transactions are free and super fast, the product is fully functioning (albeit still not perfect) and has a good sized consistent community. What other coin can even say that?
I have never heard about Enjin. What draws you to their tech?
You aren't alone thinking that way!
The company has already been established for many years and they have a huge community of active users already. Enjin have been working with the team at Unity (game engine) to create an API to fully integrate ENJ coin into games as a currency.
The thing that is cool is that these coins can be used to buy and sell items in game - that later can be 'melted' down back into coin if you decide you want your money back.
They have also developed a fantastic mobile wallet that supports multiple coins, as well as game items. Not to mention they've also developed a new ERC token to replace ERC20 which is way more robust.
You should check out their site to learn more. These guy are very active. I may buy back in at some point but I just didn't want to watch my investment drop below the ICO price of 0.02 after it climbed to .50.
My stake was worth almost 1 million dollars at one point...
Sounds really interesting thank you for taking the time to spell it out for me.
For me i think binance coin (BNB) is a pretty good coin for a couple of reasons:
*First because binance is the biggest crypto-exchanger in the world and approved by many nations *Second because it's a Deflationary Currency, in fact there is a regular burning of BNB, so theoretically the price will always go higher in the future.The price will only be as high as people are willing to pay for it.
Never say never.
I haven't really used Binance that much as an exchange. I will think about trying them out. Thanks for the info.
How true ...!
No. Not really. Maybe Litecoin. I have Bitcoin & Ethereum.
Thanks for your input. :)
I've been predominantly bullish on Vechain for the past year or so now because of its practical uses. The fact that its blockhain can potentially put an end to virtually any counterfeit/fake product being sold on the market globally isn't something to spit at.
Monero is interesting, as one of the few coins which still place emphasis on anonymity of transactions.
Then of course right now USDcoin, TrueUSD and Tether... because they are the only ones not fucking me.
Pivx and Substratum were also pretty interesting
