What's going on here at Bitcointalk.org right now in the Alternate cryptocurrencies sub-section, with threads like these, plus all the scamcoins etc. is the very reason why the whole Alternate cryptocurrencies section should just be removed.

Just let these coin developers use their own forums to promote their scam coins. See how far that goes..

Theymos has been talking about it for some time. And i think the time has come!

Please Theymos do Bitcoin a favor, and all of us! Just close it down! Look what it has come to!  Undecided

Do you want/need all this happening on the back of Bitcointalk.org?


This section will remain, it's original purpose 'Alternate Trashcan" does a very good job of keeping this out of the main forum!

Yeah, i realize that. But why not delete this section, and just hire some more mods in the other sections to delete the garbage threads about other currencies?  Tongue

I've been doing some real thinking the last few days, and think that this would be the real long term solution for these problems, and would probably be the most effective, with little to no financial damage to others.

Sure some people would go to cryptocointalk, but i believe the majority would still be here and to the other more established coin forums like litecointalk etc. But most would still use this forum and that other forum, whatever their favourite coin forum may be. People can use two forums at once.

The main thing is that all of this scamming etc, will not be happening on the back of Bitcointalk.org. And at the same time it would discourage scamcoins from existing because they would find it hard to 'get off the ground'. They would have to rely on their own forums for that, instead of riding off the back of Bitcoin/Bitcointalk.org. And of course, they would have little support with the very limited exposure they would have, since it would be a much smaller user base on these other forums to begin with.

Therefore it would limit the coins that could exist to innovative/non- scam coins that could get peoples attention, since that is the only way they would be able to survive with so little exposure.

All of this still works on the basic fundamentals of the free market.

Plus it would help Bitcoin!

Three birds with one stone..
