Price is driven by familiarity and emotion. The coin may be technically better than Bitcoin, but the factors that drive price are nearly impossible to predict. Spread your value across many coins and hedge.

Beautifully written review of an obviously thought-provoking book. I will be reading this book soon. A few thoughts that may (or may not) be applicable to some of the concepts you describe from the book...
