Bitcoin is an altcoin to Peercoin and Peercoin is an altcoin to Bitcoin.
Do all of you understand what "alt" means? It stands for alternate.
So when shown some new technology in crypto I get annoyed when people go, oh it's just another alternate.
Bitcoin is also an alternate to other technologies. I hate how all of you are acting like the current bitcoin protocol is the end all be all project in the crypto scene. Satoshi brought true innovation and all of you are acting like there can't be any more for some reason.
So please next time something innovative is made don't just go, oh that's just another altcoin. Actually use your heads and look at the technology for what it's worth.
This idiotic thought process that some of you posses is exactly why a lot of you and a lot of people didn't get in early on Bitcoin. Because when faced with something new your underdeveloped/underpowered brains don't know how to process everything and you immediately call scam or fail on what you can't understand.
IT IS A NICE TRY...
but honestly when you come on here and have a rant about how bitcoin is an alt coin is not true. the alt part of it is talking about how other coins copy and paste their source code from bitcoin or take most of it or some of it and just tweak it. there is a reason bitcoin is at the top and all the others are at the bottom right now.
