What's the starting point for these numbers? Is this growth just for today? Bitcoin up by 7% gives me that hunch, but I'm surprised all the others are up.
Where's Doge? Much missed.
This cryptocurrency run is a powder keg. There are three coins on there that are legit - Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ether. What are the rest used for other than speculation? What retailers actually accept zcash or augur or golem for example?
This reminds me of a line from a movie - bitcoin is my crypto-currency, there are many like it but this one is mine...
Zcash has the best underlying privacy technology (zk-snark) and has good corporate backing. I think it will be a leader in getting Crypto accepted and used in business-to-business transactions; Augur is for prediction markets, Golem is for distributed computing.
All the major alts now have serious use cases, even if we are still early in their deployment. So the breezy dismissals of them by some Bitcoiners are now badly out of date. This isn't 2014. Bitcoin may remain a flagship, though that remains to be seen. But it is the flagship of a large and growing fleet, not a single boat.
