Excellent article!!
This is absolutely spot on - It is all about the blockchain.
I am basing all of my investments on the blockchain and enhancing products.
Current favourites include QSP, TRAC & VEN.
It is true the mining payouts lately have not been great but still just accumulating BTC to buy other ALT coins.
Will be glad when GOX buggers off!!
Mt Gox will be here for a while yet.
QSP is a solid coin, so are the others you mention.
Bought loads of it in these dips.
