Is it not boring to have Bitcoin only?
When you are talking with other members of community, when you see their efforts, for instance, one Mooncoin believer is in a real process of making MOON a currency of his native town in Italy, another member is starting a new pool.. some have been hacked, there is one dumper with several billions who permanently is trying to dump a price... and investors who buy and so defend price... well, I cannot explain it. You must feel it. It may be a great hobby and everybody can participate and be a kind of "whales".
Btw do you know that we have convinced a person, on whose code Dogecoin was based, to join Moon development?
Mooncoin users are discussing security issues, decentralization, and a lot of questions on a daily basis via PMs and e-mails and in our thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=389403.9620
I don't know another coin with so decentralized scheme of development.
If I just held Bitcoin, I never would know a lot of things regarding cryptocurrency, I would be just a person late for Bitcoin train.
Bitcoin? Well, I was buying it earlier, with leverage sometimes, but have lost money. Still I have a lot of BTC frozen on MtGOX. If they return them, I'll buy a lot of Mooncoins instead of holding BTC.

I think if BTC rises, people will be glad and will feel themselves rich and they will diversify their investments and will buy altcoins.
Altcoin market capitalizations may rise even faster, a price is a balance between supply and... you know.

I was thinking of that, too, but if I hold Mooncoins why should I exchange them to LTC or BTC first, if I can buy directly for Mooncoins, to send Mooncoins from my wallet or from Cryptsy balance?

Holding 2.5 BTC instead of 1 Billion Mooncoins is boring, but it is just my feeling, don't listen to me... altcoins can be risky indeed.

But why would I use Mooncoins when I have to make this machinery around to spend them, when I can use Bitcoins straight into the Amazon website?

Ye well if you use them and you "feel good" by having billions of coins, good for you Cheesy

My discussion was in case of investment: you don't want to put 10000$ into altcoinX just to have billions of them, and find one day that Bitcoin skyrocketed and your altcoinX value is now 0.000000000004 BTC each.

But yes, I may be completely wrong in my prediction... still, if you can't find any logic fallacy, that's the best there's around at the moment, and if you can find more variables to add to the equation, I'll be glad to implement them

Not everybody is a technician, programmer or so much enthusiast.
I am not a programmer, though I know quite a lot on the matter, I am not an economist, and I have many other hobbies to waste my time onto Cheesy

So I only watch cryptocurrencies as an investment, and so my other hobby is try to predict their behaviour.
So, I can add all your enthusiasm and other enthusiasm of ther hundreds or thousands of boys around the planet about cryptocurrencies, and working on more altcoins, still I don't think they will make such a difference.
They would kick ass much better if they would try to promote Bitcoin... it would be SO NICE to see shop after shop after shop exposing a label BITCOIN ACCEPTED... I would so much love it.
But really, if you LIKE to be INVOLVED in the development, just do it: the only thing that matter in life is have PLEASURE out of it.

And while thinking to this, I may have come up with a method to help Bitcoin adoption, I'll keep the test up in the following month and see how it goes.
If it works, I'll post a topic here on the forum... this COULD become a BOMB to help Bitcoin adoption around the world.
