Bitcoin BTC is the original. In my opinion all other coins (perhaps apart from Ethereum) are either Scams or copies- WHY ?
Scams
Some coins require a "premine" and to be issued by an entity.
"Ill make 100,000,000 of my new coin, but first put 10,000,000 in my pocket then sell the rest and ill be a millionaire". (pre-mine scam)
Also the issuing "entity" can be attacked by governments.
Copies
We had a spell of copies with allegedly better tech. If better tech is created it can always be assimilated into BTC. It will take you a year or so to truly get to know the truth of this. Most others are scams especially - XRP, Bitcoin Cash / Bitcoin SV / Bitcoin ABC.

Bitconnect
|
Bitconnect (nothing to do with Bitcoin) was the classic SCAM / Ponzi scheme. A very large quantity of Bitconnect coins were pre mined. The Hype was hyped - The price was pumped. Seeing the price rocketing, people bought in which made the price increase even more, up until the rug was pulled.
Coins where sold very quickly leaving investors or “bag holders” holding a "bag" of worthless coins. This is what governments do to your savings, only much more slowly. Its called -
Basically call it ANTHING other than money printing just to make your eyes glaze over with boredom. |

Then its a scam. |

Ethereum
|
Ethereum is programable money a different animal completely. While I do not believe it has set out to be a deliberate scam. It does have draw backs I.E. A large premine, a none fixed supply (which means bad actors could print some for them selfs).
Compared to Bitcoin, Ethereum is extremely complicated so is going to have much bigger scaling problems than Bitcoin ever did. |

Proof Of Work
|
What does it mean ?
Proof of work ensures a slow release of coins over time allowing everyone to participate. Not POW = SCAM |
Why is it essential ?
Lets suppose for a minuet - No POW , we'll call it "Scamocoin" Whats to stop -
They would be much richer than you because they already had or bought all the coins. |
All money is a SCAM !
Bitcoin is the only one that does not benefit a government, organization or individual.
There's nearly 5000 crypto currencies, at least 99% are Deliberate SCAMS the other 0.99% will go no where. Leaving may be 0.01% worth while and in my opinion only 3 truly free currencies-

Copies and fakes
Many people have copied Bitcoin, its easy theres even an actual website that will do it for you !
But do you want the original Mona Lisa or the copy ? Will everyone leave Facebook to go to a new social media website ? NO cos no one is on it.

Who does Bitcoin benefit ?
Those who buy earliest and deepest will benefit from the expected massive price rise. Ultimately mankind will benefit from having incorruptible money. Companies & Pensions will benefit from yield on their BTC.
