Definitely NODE so far. But CryptoCoinJs is another promising Javascript coin project. If you want to know more about it, visit http://cryptocoinjs.com

Are there any other altcoins built on Javascript? I know that NODE is based on node.js. But what others are there? Any JavaScript-based coin would have to be a new source coin and to my knowledge, there aren't very many new source coins currently out there.

Yeah yeah it's Node.  But there's no volume.  Lot's of bag holders who cannot sell down without taking it even lower.  

Just stay away.  But you could trade it when it is being pumped.  But get out as soon as you made some profit.  These are NOT worth holding for the long term.  We just don't know where these projects are going.  The devs behind them could have good and honest intentions, but what can they really do?  They'd need an angel investor, or better yet a VC spending millions on their project to get it going and build infrastructure.  And even with that, it's not even 100% sure that they would pull it off.  One good example of that is Ripple, another is Bitshares, another is Stellar.  All those VC's/backers and is still having a hard time competing with Bitcoin.

Just stay away...


Part of the reason why NODE isn't looking so good right now is the Bter hack. It was the main exchange that NODE traded on (perhaps even the only one?).



Exactly why people should back up and stay away.  It's easy to lose money on altcoins, especially now. It ain't 2013 anymore.

You could trade it though if it's being pumped.  But get out real quick.  This is far from a good longterm investment.

edit:  "Any JavaScript-based coin would have to be a new source coin and to my knowledge, there aren't very many new source coins currently out there."

^ You think that pitch is gonna make a a backer or VC pump millions in a project?  Hell no.
