FTC - FeatherCoin (nuff said - my first true cryptolove - I’m a Londoner)
NOBL - NobleCoin (I’m a believer! Seems promising and ‘noble’ :D)
GLD - GoldCoin (it’s the name - nothing else! Some say scam, I say so what - they all are - take your pick, back your horse!)
CAT - CatCoin (the community is a f**king nightmare! Terrible launch, bickering, forking - 3 lives down, 6 to go!)

and of course, the almighty BTC!

I also hold stakes in the following:

MonaCoin (Nice wallet splash screen - it’s the important things that matter!)
ICoin (I tested solo mining with a wallet when it launched - much profitability - wow!)
Coinye (In case i need cred wid da yootz)
LiveCoin (UK devs, but generated from coingen.io :o - It’s a pure punt - I must be mad, but they seem deadly serious, I wish them luck!)

I don’t hold any DogeCoin but I rate it very highly. BTC is what the older alts are traded against, DOGE is the defacto standard for the newer alts, and it’s also the most profitable coin to mine. That’s quite an achievement in 1 month and they show no sign of disappearing. Just had an upward bounce in the last few days.

1. 1000 CAT = 1 BTC.
2. Kittehcoin competes with Dogecoin
3. CAT is meant to be scrypt copy of BTC so 21 million
4. Value depends on security + community

Long term speculation and 2 years to maturity of coin are things of the past. The technology is proven. The issue now is that people want to not have others controlling the possibilities.

Both the bitcoin and litecoin communities became circlejerks for the developers and developers care more about making deals with corporations and angel investors instead of people.

Catcoin is Bitcoin in scrypt. It has the dynamics of Bitcoin which means I can pretty much forget about Bitcoin.

OK, so Catcoin isn’t really a Dogecoin competitor? It was its USP before and during launch. [quote author=zerodrama link=topic=6388.msg47792#msg47792 date=1388133000]

I’ve been having a poke at catcoin over the last 12 to 18 hours… I’ve only picked up about 3 cat.

From pool teamcatcoin.com
[quote]Overview CAT/USD: 22.15000000 / Pool Workers: 46[/quote]

Even though I can mine a lot more ftc, cat seems more profitable right now.

Do we think because it is far more scarce that it fetches a higher price?

By making cat a clone of btc but having it as scrypt, does that that not essentially remove 95% of the competition from all those SHA asic mining rigs?

It could cause people to rethink the whole ASIC tulip mania. Which would be a good thing.
[/quote]I wouldn’t trust pool valuations. I’d check what they’re selling for on the exchanges and forums.

Given the fact that litecoin and bitcoin have become such circlejerks, i’m dropping BTC just like i did LTC.

FTC, DOGE, CAT, and maybe WDC are looking to be my dream team.

So longer bunker fiends.

We create here.
[/quote]I have to disagree on catcoin. I think kittehcoin will come out the winner in that race. Catcoin are still trying to recover from a disastrous launch while kittehcoin seems to be much further down the road.

Catcoin is out of the woods. It’s stable now.
[/quote]My problem with Catcoin is that it’s rewards are not what I expected. A miner with a 2MH/s rig can earn approx 33CAT or approx 50FTC per day. Why would anyone choose less CAT over more FTC (which already has value)? You’d have to believe that CAT will one day be worth more than FTC to make that decision. I’m not sure it will.

And I thought Catcoin was kinda meant to compete with Dogecoin. One of the reasons doge is so popular is because of the rewards people are receiving from mining it. Even now with a relatively small rig a miner can get a few thousand a day. I don’t see the logic behind the decision to limit Catcoin to 21 million coins, and I can’t see why anyone would mine CAT instead of FTC at that reward level.

Wow! That’s awesome. I’ll be passing this onto a friend of mine who runs his own commercial website. It’s not doing too much recently. This might be the shot in the arm it needs.
