Doge has massive inflation right now, that's why it is dropping

People need to calm down around here. The hype is way out of hand. Don't trust anyone telling you this thing is going to the moon or that you are missing out if you don't buy right this instant. Be patient, we are going to move up and down in the coming months. We have a great core concept with the PoS and the multipool as well as a ton of community support. But this doesn't mean we are going to continue to expand at this incredible rate. Buy. Hold. Stop the hype. Slow growth is far better than the pump and dump crap I'm reading here.

How much does it costs to let a celebirty tweet about blackcoin?

That may be to some extent but its price profile follows that of just about every other coin that's been launched in the last 4 months.

Most people who invest in alt coins these days don't do so as a long term hold. Alt coins are a liquidity proxy for bitcoin. Sure people are interested in 'features' but only so they can discern which ones are likely to be more competitive in the short term, not the long term, because they've no interest in holding them long term.

I don't think people realise what a loosing game it is trying to imagine that anything's going to "replace" bitcoin.

There's been a flotilla of alt coins of every shape, size, algo, marketing theme - you name it. Not one of them has even put a dent in Bitcoin. Maybe Litecoin made a scratch but even that can't even get really get remotely near it.

People buy alts to get more Bitcoin - for no other serious reason.

Towards the end of this year, the final nail in the coffin for bitcoin contenders will appear when the Bitcoin ETFs start to appear on the scene, such as the Winklevosse's one. It takes years to get an ETF through all the regulatory red tape and onto a stockmarket listing. You've no idea how far ahead Bitcoin is in so many areas regarding so called 'network effect'. Not to mention the reputation for integrity it's going to have after shaking off all the Gox FUD legacy and associated attempts by the mainstream press to kill it off.

You think a $300,000 supernova marketing campaign's a match for any of that ? It's mickey mouse territory

here come the trolls, bringing the hate on blackcoin cuz they have a case of the mads

I want to specifically call this out as ridiculous and irresponsible behaviour. While I do suggest investing in BC, $40000 is an asinine, arbitrary inflated, Pump and Dump crapfest. And I normally try to use decent language. If you invest $42 dollars it would be OPTIMISTICALLY reasonable that you may end up with $100 in a few months time. That would be BEST CASE scenario. Honestly. This is rubbish. I am a big BC holder, btw.

You're reading too much into the Proof of Stake thing and your logic contains an awful lot of wishful thinking and assumptions.

The first time I came across a coin with such a fanatical community was Worldcoin. Exactly the same recipe - they thought their coin was going to take over the world because it had fast transaction times.

That's how silly your argument looks right now. There is nothing in Blackcoin that isn't heading straight for obsolescence in terms of novelty value within a couple of months. It will probably gain in value due to the multi pool effect but not from anything else and the multi-pool support will be short lived once it's found to work because everybody will be doing it and everybody will be proof of stake and everybody will be investing 6 figure sums in marketing and everybody will have an amazing community.

The only thing "everybody" won't have is the slightest bit of traction on bitcoin.
