Re: Alt-Coins

there simply will never be enough of them for this ever to become a true currency, or to be used in any major way for currency exchange.

This has been addressed a thousand times

I'm fairly new to all this, and haven't found those discussions. But I guarantee you, that people aren't going to be buying a house with their .000256 bitcoins even if they are valued at $10,000,000,000 each.

Why not?

Consider, you get a new job, your salary is .000017 bitcoins per hour. umm don't think the average person is going to go for that. That's all I'm saying, regardless of what its true value is. Woohoo I make .0035 bitcoins a year, I'm rich!!
