If you had to guess which coin would be the first to have -actual- adoption, whether it be a utilitycoin or a currency coin, which would it be and why?
For me, it would be between BAY and FUN. >BAY: because online markets are middleman filled trash(less middleman=more profits) >FUN: humans love online gambling except it's shady as fuck and FUN kinda removes shadiness and I could see a lot of people just saying fuck it lets gamble with muh crypto since it's useless right now anyways.
I think utilitycoins will be the first to be used in real life for things besides "investment payments" for goods/services(btc/eth/ltc) because they bring the trustless interactions the internet is missing currently. I don't see currency being adopted before something with ((actual utility)). Personal opinion, i'd love to hear more.
What are your guesses for the first real world adoption of a coin?
Bump No one wants to speculate what will be the next biggest thing in crypto? I think it'd be interesting to hear everyone's theories on which coins will win biggest and why, in simple terms.
Juan Cruz
Litecoin since its the only one so far to actually act like a currency and not a commodity like btc, eth etc.
Nolan Rivera
I can see that reasoning to a degree, I just don't know how many people agree with that. Personally, I think vertcoin is better than litecoin.
Not really though. Is privacy really that valuable to ((them)) when literally everyone has a facebook and puts their life on the internet? Why will it get massively adopted?
y tho
Juan Russell

Jeremiah Anderson
privacy, fast transactions, a lack of excessive decimal places, continuous development, really the most hopeful looking coin for the future
Carson Cook
VEN is the only right answer, how this isn't obvious to some people beats me
Litecoin died when your goddamn founder left you and Litepay ended All these retarded shills without a shred of intelligence
Ryder Scott
You have to give a simple reason why it will be adopted though
Interesting, is the lack of decimal places really that big of a deal to people?
explain
Colton Ortiz
>it will be It is right now, why? because it saves a shitload of money to companies
Noah Nguyen
Is it really though? I could ask my mom about it and she wouldn't know what it is. True adoption, imo, is when you can ask a normie what something is and they go "oh I've heard of that"
David Roberts
The Devs from this shitcoin were literally asking for coding advice at Jow Forums.
for the average individual that is used to currency i.e the rest of the world besides crypto bros, units in the hundreds are standard. keeping it familiar is really important if you expect people to use a coin instead of treating it as alien
besides, the coin is already seeing use as a real currency rather than some speculatory store of value
By your own metric you wouldn't consider SWIFT true adoption since most normies are oblivious to what's that
Jaxon Walker
True, I guess I'm more looking to see if there's any unanimous agreement on coins that will get actual recognition from the outside world due to their use case actually providing real use in "real life"
Ryder Watson
IOST write that shit down
Nathan Powell
why tho give me a simple reason or it's shit

VeChain. Reason: They’ve been in business since 2015 creating blockchain solutions for clients, all on private blockchains. Their token released in 2017 is in preparation for launch of their public blockchain in June, where they move all existing and any new clients to the public chain. Almost immediately, it will be handling more transactions per day than Ethereum. While everyone else is chasing tech, they’ve actually been operating like a real business.
Crypto may or may not be adopted by the public (I doubt it). Blockchain tech has a future with businesses, and VeChain is undoubtedly ahead of anyone else in crypto.
Hmm interesting, seems complex though and I'm not sure what problem it solves. Does it just make it easier for businesses to "blockchainize" their already established businesses? Is everything in the future going to be blockchain? From microsoft to mcdonalds?
Interesting, but I don't think that really matters much.

What if that's just clever FUD and it's not actually a real TRTL dev posting that.
VeChain has been doing stuff like that since 2015, obviously on a smaller but still notable scale since it’s a startup. What’s novel is that they’re going to switch it all over to a cryptocurrency, quoting clients in fiat and then buying the corresponding amount of VET or VeThor tokens if they don’t want to bother with exchanges themselves.
It solves a lot of problems, but the problems are tailored to the client. A lot of people on this board talk about “fake partnerships” etc etc, it’s not just wrong, it’s the shallowest of shallow analysis. People here genuinely have no idea what VeChain has done or is doing. This interview with their COO is informative: m.youtube.com/watch?v=Wf18odbzjuo
Christopher Sullivan
I guess what I’m trying to say is, the most adopted blockchain tech in the real world right now is through tailored blockchain solutions by companies like Microsoft or IBM, and you can’t buy tokens for those, they’re not cryptocurrencies. VeChain is like those companies, not as large, but they still have multi-billion-dollar clients. Just by virtue of actually operating like a real business with real-world use-cases for their tech, they’d immediately be ahead of any other cryptocurrency in real-word adoption on day-one once they switch their clients to the public blockchain. It’s not the #1 enterprise blockchain in the world, but it would be the #1 enterprise blockchain tied to a cryptocurrency.
Bentley Peterson
Makes sense now. Thanks for the explanation. I'll look more into vechain.
Luis Sanders
yeah that's some neat fud, the core devs for the coin are experienced full time coders with jobs aside of this endeavor
they allow people to chip in if they know what they're doing, so there is a tiny sliver of possibility that is from an inexperienced individual hoping to cheat on gaining favor
i'm going to say fud, though
Kayden Ortiz
Xrp absolutely unequivocally, xrp
Brody Butler
As much as I hate to say it, OMG isn’t it already being used at MCDonalds? And don’t forget all the other partnerships June has cooked up
Cameron Ramirez
great reasoning i'm sure you'll go far i heard that was bullshit partnerships =/= real value/real use/real adoption
Logan Bell
Nano as a currency coin. Zero fees and fast transfer times. Got hit with a lot of fud but if it gets any adoption or becomes a pairing on more exchanges this shit will be worth 100 each
