We need a whole section dedicated to this topic…
To be honest, I would have this shifted to a new childboard inside General Discussion called Price Speculation.

[threadjack]This reminds me … when’s Zerocoin Protocol coin coming out?[/threadjack]
:o
[/quote]Just so new members know, “Off Topic threads” are against “forum rules”, but there is a slight connection, so I will not report it this time.
Zerocoin will come out when a few people get of their ar"e and help the developers get it going. Personally, the quicker the better and as an add-on to any coin, Like Kevlars development is going, but we are rushed of our feet here doing more than our job already …
If some one wants to ignore 6 months of posts threads and PhD level arguments on the best way to start a new currency, let them.
Feathercoin needs the members who GET IT NOW, so we can accelerate the deployment (note, not the awareness!)…
Support the Zerocoin format, just like the active “community” does at Feathercoin to “Develop the Feathercoin network, support new miners and wallet holders”…
I personally have watched the Zerocoin presentations on you tube and seen the Alpha software. You could you start it’s own thread, so members can keep up on Zerocoin developments Tuck? …

[/quote]I would sub to notify that in an instant.
Having a Zerocoin development updates and discussion section would be awesome. I know very little about it and have not really set aside time to check it out thoroughly. All I know is that it’s an anonymising add on for crypto coins. And it’s been developed by a group basically all from the same University.
But yeah, getting away from price speculation, I would love to see Zerocoin have it’s own place here on the Feathercoin Forums.
(And also maybe a place solely for price speculation. It does seem to have a few threads going all at the same time.)

This is true for any currency or any item. Im sure a glass of water here in Missouri where we get lots of rain, have people who get water from undergrounds springs and lots of rivers would sell for $0. Now im sure that same glass of water offered to someone where its a arid dry place would gladly offer $$$$ for it. Point is in my noobish opinion everything has as much value as much faith people put into it or how bad they want it to create demand.

0 = ZeroFor all people reading this it is important to know that. No matter how much i personally love alt coins it be bitcoins or feathercoins the real value is 0. You can however say the same for dollar, euro, pounds or what ever kind of currency out there.
The problem for alt coins is that there is no real use for them yet except being a fake store of value ( the greater fool theory ). Unlike fiat you still cannot buy a house, pay taxes nor do anything with alt coins except gamble, buy hookers, drugs and other things ordinary people dont really need. ( Yeah i know there is much more, but you get the picture)
The dollar was as known pegged to gold until early 80, and that is what needs to happen to bitcoins.
Lets play with the idea of 1 bitcoin = 1 oz gold. If that was true one could pretty easy calculate real value of alt coins by factoring in bitcoins as the value factor in the same way as dollars where for all other currencies we have today.
So is this possible ?. Maybe, but probably not.
But i love the consept of alt coins and will continue to mine simply because the idea appeals to me, however it is important to know just what alt coins is at this present day in time. Just a big currency ponzi game.

The real value of the water however is still 0. But under the right circumstances yeah one would pay a million for a glass of it.
But when a monsun like downpour occurs you are soon out of customers.

Sorry, that’s not how value works.
Value is, according to the English dictionary, the importance, worth, or usefulness of something. If it has importance, worth, or usefulness, it has value.
I think we can safely put this argument to rest: You’re using the word wrong.

Pardon me. I do not have English as native language, but i still think you catch the point.

[/quote]I really don’t. You keep saying something which has obviously value has no value. It doesn’t make any sense at all.

I’m gonna start a new thread in Off-Topic. I’m interested to see where this goes.

[/quote]Tachyons, A hypothetical subatomic particle that always travels faster than the speed of light. Proposed by Albert Einstein.
It is pretty likely that our Universe is a Black hole inside a “parent Universe”, where light travels faster than the speed of light in our Universe…
Is this the ultimate in Off Topic?
