RE: As Bitcoin Breaks All-Time Highs Near $18,000 Its Future Has Never Been So Uncertain

in #dtube7 years ago (edited)

Bitcoin is a shitcoin now. Ethereum will takeover bitcoin soon if nothing is done about high fees. Dash and litecoin is also much better alternatives.

Sort:  

Disagree-Litecoin is a copycat or a little junior of BTC. Only popular because on Coinbase.

True

agree with you

LTC has slightly better tech than BTC, but in the end. It's just a BTC clone. If LTC got so popular as BTC is right now. Then LTC would experience the same problems.

True
And is litecoin ever got the traffic bitcoin has the fees would be same much higher

Fully agree with you... Litecoin is actually pointless...

Yeh it will just run up against the same problems as BTC if it's network activity increases

Seeing as though we are all using Steemit, EOS will take over, Like completely obliterate everything!!

Hope so. I bot some EOS on 0.54$ )))

I'm not too sold on EOS. The coin isn't intended for it's own platform.

waited over 1 hour for bch transfer wtf ?
I know handful of other private coins quicker

ETH, Dash & Litecoin have SAME scaleability issues.
BTH - not a real answer too.

BTS - can handle a Visa scale today. So I choose BTS (and Steem, and EOS)

Never heard of BTH?

Monero, Ethereum, Iota.... pretty much anything is better than the current shambles that is Bitcoin.
Not too keen on Dash and Litecoin as they don't really bring anything unique to the table....but are indeed functional as currency.
I also love Steem cos it has an obvious use case and it's superfast and with no fees....though maybe its economics need to be ironed out to make it a contender for the top spots .

Maybe what we really need is a few currencies which don't bring anything unique to the table, which avoids potential cryptokitties dangers and just works;)

Well hopefully with plasma and sharding implemented there will be no impact on the main chain

But maybe Litecoin could be a feasible replacement. It does the job with lower fees. Also, Bitcoin Cash is touted as THE replacement. But I’m not very fond of it. I don’t like most of the Bitcoin Forks, though this one may become very successful just because of its name. I don’t like what it brings to the table. I think the most likely case is that Litecoin will outpace Bitcoin in the future and ethereum will remain a second option in the #2 spot. Ethereum has a lot more potential to go up

IOTA is probably the most promising sleeper coin out there. With the proliferation of the "internet of things" a coin that operates within those transactions will out play everyone in the game. It's likely to take a few more years to fully integrate but once that happens it will skyrocket

Yes. IOTA is a great technology. The Tangle tech compared to the Blockchain is much better. However, it has its problems. As someone pointed out to me, the algorithms they use aren’t fully proven to be exempt from bugs and hacks. But, if the problems get fixed i feel IOTA has a bright future. It will be one of my HODL coins soon

I offer dogecoin as an alternative to bitcoin

I’ve been so adverse to dogecoin because of its name that I know nothing about it. I refuse to get into it. It’s name will drive people away and not take it seriously. I don’t believe this coin will see a top spot in the market

It might still appreciate though.

Pretty much all coins can go up. But a sustainable growth is what most people want to see. Like ripple or dash or some of these other coins that are starting to test the top 3 and make a run for Bitcoins spot

Check out my latest post, it addresses this issue.

Iota it's said to become the currency for the internet of things, just imagine robots paying other robots do to work..including maybe murder, haha :)) crazy times we will live, once the A.I and virtual reality will be fully onboard

I agree and i believe it will eventually loose support from the masses and remain an artifact in the hands of the few rich only. And will see the rise of alternative coins , cheap fast and equally secured.

I do agree ... altru I think Ethereum, Dash and Bitcoin Cash will be the winner ... I do not really understand why people buy Litecoin it looks very over both at this moment ...

Mike Maloney put together a great video about the future of Bitcoin and also how
“Hashgraph” has many of Advantages over bitcoin. Virtually zero wait time and low Power consumption .

DAG-based cryptos are already good (like IOTA or ByteBalls). But hashgraphs is upgrade for DAGs. Cant wait for it's actual implementation

I'd been following Mike Maloney for a number of years on Youtube but then I stopped. Thanks for sharing this. I was curious to know where Mike and the folks at GoldSilver.com would stand on cryptocurrencies. The second half of the video does kind of sound like a sales commercial for Hashgraph but the first half did a really good job of explaining how Bitcoin and the blockchain work. It's worth taking the time to watch.

thanks for this

@littleboy,

Bitcoin is a shitcoin now.

Ummm... I wish I could shit coins that are worth $17K - $18K. LOL!

Some one in core team must wake up ASAP

Honestly, I’m happy just switching over to bitcoin cash. There really is no reason any of us should care about their drama, we should just use that which works best.

I have a transaction with zero confirmations and it’s been 72 hours! I upped fee to $18.00 and it’s still stuck

'Store of value', but their's no way of every retrieving that value. Lol.

Exactly
That’s the way it’s going sadly

$29.00 tx fee. ‘Nuff Said.

That’s cheap
My last transaction was$ 45.00

Same here, fee has already been 12 bucks!

I transferred $50 BTC the other day from coinbase to bitterex and I ended up paying $15 fee. Whaaaaaat. Shit that is F.......g high fee right there.

I agree its ridiculous . you guys should use Gdax.com its the cheap alternative. basically the same company but with fewer fees and they also dont charge you for transferring between the platforms

I have transferred 400$ BTC and paid 18$ fee. The more you pay the better.

Yes. I don’t mind the high fees because they get my transaction done. I wish they were lower since that was the goal of Bitcoin, but if I need to pay that fee to get my crypto, then I’ll pay it. Bitcoin said it was going to eliminate fees and get rid of the middlemen that plague fiat currency. But the miners have become the middlemen.. and they charge much higher fees than a credit card or debit card or bank in a lot of cases. Bitcoin will explode. But I hope it is headed up way before that happens.

Mine was 33 bucks transfer and 12 bucks fee, ha, and no confirmation yet!

It’s horrible!
