Title: Adam B Levine's Top Crypto Sites
Post by: bitbro on January 26, 2014, 09:03:37 pm
Adam,

I've been wondering what other information I should be following and paying attention to. Could you help by listing all the crypto-related sites you are paying most attention to? I'm thinking they will be blogs, forums, and others. Please let me know and post here for others.

Thanks.

Ambitious title, to be honest with you I get most of my information by talking to people all the time, and reading lots of forums.   I am paying attention to Bitshares, Mastercoin, NXT, Ethereum, Emunie (to a lesser extent).   I am very interested in open transactions.

Did anyone invest in Mastercoin and if why?
I didnt because: Less promising than Bitshares + way more expenseive / higher market cap...

re: msc: I invested some but I'm not too sure about it. They haven't delivered much and there doesn't seem to be much direction to the project. It got too much hype IMO


What I'm interested in and what I think the OP is asking is: what kinds of news aggregation / opinion sites / blogs do you guys follow for news in crypto-*** space?

msc: that was the the layer on top of bitcoin fashion, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qdr_Z3hrqQ

coindesk is a good source for context and opinion outside the btc community.
Letstalkbitcoin is an in depth source. Thanks Adam!
Bitcoin Magazine is also very good, good at explaining abstract things easily.
Than conference panels.
Other than that bitshares and btc forums.

Ha, this looks like my list and I'm a complete crypto noob.  I'm also interested in CryptogenicBullion.  There are some interesting things going on there.

I invested in MSC. I liquidated most of my holdings in the last 24h.

This is because I do not feel comfortable about the MSC future. I am reallocating this towards Bitshares.

The initial investment was to distribute the portfolio and the concept seemed promising.

Q1 is about Metacoins, Q3 will be about the coins built on top of metacoins, and I wouldnt be suprised if it was really Q2.

Honestly this is the bleeding edge right here
