alt-coins are NOT important at all.
what does society gain by having 40,000 alt-projects?
maybe 2 or 3 of them are at half capacity in terms of transactions/second but no where near 100% capacity.
any unique use cases that no other alt project can duplicate?
besides, this doesn't have a long-term feel by not having either AUX-POW or PoW+PoS moving the chain.
even your explorer is down.
"alt-coins are NOT important at all."
That is an opinion.
"what does society gain by having 40,000 alt-projects?"
Decentralization and innovation in blockchain and crypto technology.
"besides, this doesn't have a long-term feel by not having either AUX-POW or PoW+PoS moving the chain. "
Feelings are subjective. Facts are objective. I encourage you to visit the TFC economy, and to see how many businesses and individuals are invested in this project's long term success. Just watch this space, in a few weeks from now, some amazing things rolled out.
"even your explorer is down"
This is only temporary. True Freedom Coin is a decentralized community, and the coin/project isn't owned by one individual or team. In the future, many people are going to take it on themselves to host block explorers for the True Freedom Coin Blockchain.
