Bitcoin vs "Shitcoin"*

_{^{* Some people use the term "shitcoin" to designate an undesirable cryptocurrency. It's not my intention to offend any person or project and It's not my opinion about altcoins, there are many amazing projects with brilliant people behind. I'm using this term propositally to motivate the discussion about it.}}

I think that if people like something it will have value, no mater how silly or strange. There have been some coins that died, so it is possible. As long as one miner still runs it can come back.

Yep. For some strange reason I like bytecoin (not bitcoin), but I have a huge fear to put my money on it. ☺

It could be that one of these "shitcoins" becomes the valid fork of bitcoin. Better not keep all your eggs in one basket just in case its not bitcoin that comes out on top in the end...

Indeed. Diversifying investments is best practice.
