Do you have any plans to offer the API for altcoins as well?

Which altcoin would you like to see support for?

Although, given the similarities, if we can probably support all the popular altcoins if we do decide to extend support.

Honestly, none in particular at the moment and yet also any that's needed. I just see a situation where if I did need to work with two currencies, having an API for one and then building the infrastructure in house for the other seems silly, especially since most alt coins are literally clones of each other.

That is true. I can certainly see that.

If enough developers want support for altcoin. I think that wouldn't too hard to do

> Which altcoin would you like to see support for?

In all seriousness, dogecoin. I'm interested in the kind of apps where low transaction fees and a tipping-oriented culture are necessary.
