Just because you can, doesn't mean you HAVE to.
The great thing about cryptocurrency is it decentralized and open sourced nature. Anyone can create a coin with a little knowledge and minimal start-up capital.
This begs the question: Just because you can do it, should you? I'll be honest; I did not read any of the whitepapers for these coins. It's the name and logo that caught my attention and got me thinking.
Here are a few strange coins and tokens that I came across in the last couple of weeks:
Adult Coins
Titcoin / Tittiecoin / Wankcoin
Just one look at the logo and you already know what it's about. Nope, not breast cancer and empowerment.
"Green"Coins
They're green, so they're good. At least you know what they're about. Love the logo's.
Charity Coins
I am a firm believer in giving more than just in the monetary sense. Give a little of your time and show true love and generosity. Also, most charities would prefer you give them fiat currency or something more mainstream like Bitcoin. Dogecoin is really does a great job at charity though. I hold some just for the fun of it.
Politics Coins
Putin coin, Putin classic, Ron Paul coin, Trumpcoin
I fail to see the use of these coins. I'm sure it makes for a nice novelty but do the creators really see it being adopted by the masses?
Just plain bizarre
This one sums up my entire point of view. Pepecpoin, the dankest of them all. It's just weird. Also, Pepe died a few months ago. Fucktoken: I don't give a fuck has a brand new meaning.
Of course each of these tokens / coins were developed for a specific reason. If they will become mainstream like Bitcoin and Ethereum remains to be seen though. At least some of them are good for a laugh.
Intresting post....
