today shopping... I got the coins I sold to get my capital back last Dec. I got back those coins at such bargain price. POWR, ADA, Stellar, then I got also Ontology for the first time.
Stellar really is on the move, looking at how it has grown makes me study it more, will it have a chance to be at the top?
Wasn't it just handed out? Minted all in one go? Sounds exactly like "funny money" to me. Let's do something similar and make ourselves rich, like the guy who owns ripple.
Stellar was created by one of the owners of the Ripple, after they had some fight, and broke the partnership.
I don't think it is as good as true decentralized and verified money as BTC/BCH, but as a means to transfer money it has potential. In the end services like shapeshift might kill this.
I don't understand your last point. I mean, it's certainly not worthless as it can be traded for POW energy backed cryptocurrencies but I don't see the attraction personally.
https://shapeshift.io was mentioned due to expecting a future where realtime conversion of any type of crypto*currency will be available, making a less appeal (my opinion) for Stellar?
