Upon thinking for a while I realized that we already have the ultimate coin.(not alt though) And we don't need to make it easier for the Joe and Jane in order to fulfill the purpose. AFAIK, today all trades are done in $US which is a currency. All we need to do is replace dollars with bitcoins and voila!
BTC the ultimate coin,
You tell a funny joke.
BTC can not handle the transaction volume of even 1 major credit card provider much less the world.
BTC price is already too high to be usable for micro-payments.
China has had over 51% control over BTC for Months.
Alts are more efficient and more economical to actually send , BTC days are numbered.
That's an interesting point. Litecoin used to be $25 each when bitcoin were $900. Now bitcoin is $600, but Litecoin is only $4. From my perspective I think it's a bargain. I think the flood of alts has braught it down, but they'll all die out (some of them already have) and Litecoin will be let standing. I think it'll stay the test of time. Dogecoin might be third best. I think this blockchain stuff is pure hype.
