Topic: Currently hot alternative currencies ? (Read 977 times)

Right now (and in no particular order).

PPC - Peercoin

LTC - Litecoin

DGC - Digitalcoin

SRC - Securecoin

CGB - CryptogenicBullion


Peercoin has a good long-term potential as a currency. As an investor Proof-of-Stake is a good option for you.

Litecoin is 'silver' to bitcoins 'gold'. Enough said.

Digitalcoin unlike similar alt. coins did not have a pre-mine, has a good developer and has much potential for growth. CryptoAve exchange is coming.

Securecoin is perhaps the most underrated alt. coin in existance. Its basically Quark (very secure) using Bitcoins proven economic model. Also built by the digitalcoin developer with a fair launch.

CryptogenicBullion is your bank vault or high-interest savings account. Another Proof-of-Stake coin. Rarity and Scarcity is a good investment choice. Other coins have attempted this and are perhaps to rare in comparison. CGB seems to have got the balance just about right. Also has a good development team.

Other's you had mentioned:

Worldcoin and Megacoin have potential, but right now DGC has more potential as an investor.

Feathercoin is a Fork of Litecoin - http://cryptolife.net/an-in-depth-look-at-feathercoin-the-coin-that-started-it-all/ (Hazard is an interesting character - the critiques and information on that blog are very accurate to date - well worth reading imho.)

Watching Quark and Stablecoin. Anoncoin is to often overlooked ! Datacoin has potential, although it's early days.

Anyway, with my current top 5 as your alt. coin portfolio - I think you could pick worse - However, this is not investment advice.

Betacoin.

iXcoin ...  check coinmarketcap.com ... only coin that is rock solid even during downturns.

iXcoin is secured by over 2 Peta Hash per second.   None of your alt-coins that you list even comes close!

Right now I'm mining Worldcoin and Megacoin. I think those two are going places. If I had to pick one of the two I would go with Megacoin.

No, I'm not invested in either. I'm trying to get some because they look hot at the moment.

QRK

DTC, SRC

Define 'hot'? All you're going to get in here is opinions from people who want to popularise and pimp-out whatever currency they got in cheap at.

Dgc of course. CryptoAve exchange closed beta test starting today. Many other services in development. More details here:

StableCoin is pumped to at least floor 3 atm

LTC and CGB

QRK.

I've been thinking about this a lot, and my main criteria is active community and significant technical distinction. I've honed in on LTC and PPC for obvious reasons. OTher contenders that I'm still wrapping my head around are NXT, Protoshares, and Mastercoin (which is a protocol built atop BTC).

+1  Way undervalued at the moment compared to other alt coins.

PPC
LTC

StableCoin if you want to get in on the ground floor.

I'm going to invest in five alt currencies. At the moment I'm deciding PPC, XRE, FTC, WDC and maybe one more. Are these generally good choices, or are there any brand new currencies with such good architecture I should invest early in them?

Thanks.
