To me it seems that Bitcoin remains the no. 1 crypto currency "type of system", at least in the near future.

But there's upcoming big players in the alt / asset world, and in this topic we put together
and compare (not bash!) new groundbreaking tech and possible consequences ( to society,
economy, internet...) of those potential future currencies / assets / projects.

Ethereum
MaidSafeCoin
SuperNET
InstantDEX
etc

This topic is not about coming here and post an ad of your upcoming P&D coin X or
"your project and tech sucks, this X coin is better (because I own X coin)".

Let's discuss

I definitely think that the people who say Bitcoin will die from another Altcoin is just not feasible. The amount of momentum and head start that Bitcoin initiated will be hitting a critical mass that no other Altcoin can touch. However I do think later down the road, Bitcoin will not be the only cryptocurrency out there. The market cap in the cryptoworld will consist of probably 80% Bitcoin, 18% of 5-10 Altcoins that are fundamentally different from Bitcoin (e.g. Ethereum), and 2% of random dying or small specific function based coins.

I am curious today about how Enthereum will play into the Bitcoin ecosystem and the linkage between Ether and Bitcoin. Not sure what to think about XRP and Ripple that is primarily geared for usage of large corporations and banks.
