Many people say different altcoins are better than others but I don't really see any proof as of yet. What altcoin should I invest in? How do I know if an altcoin is succeeding? I have many questions, but I can't seem to find an answer easily :S

Imagine you are asking a merchant if he accepts a certain coin? Which name would draw his interest? Which name would spark his desire? Which name will consumers embrace? Which names give rise to laughter?

"Excuse me sir, do you accept ______Coin?" << Fill in the blank

In the end, it will be consumer consensus that decides the winners and the losers. And consumers are name brand sensitive and brand loyal.

Good point. If the master plan doesn't include an intelligent sounding name, then's it's very likely the coin is nothing more than a "look what I can do mom" project. There have been coins that have changed their names, but I haven't followed any of them so I don't know if the name change had any significance. People have long memories and "RidiculousCoin" will always be "RidiculousCoin", even after a name change.

p.s. I apologize to the Ridiculous community, if such a coin exists. Grin
