It's your list, and you can obviously arrange things however you wish. But in my opinion MΣC and CGB have both moved well beyond the "Candidates" stage.
I'm at least happy to see you had the good sense to upgrade CGB from "The Purgatory".
Lets get serious. CGB and MEC are nothing more than decent alt coins on a decent run. That can be said about any alt coin out there, with few exceptions.
Purgatory means just that: uncertainty. And these coins have in no way moved out of the uncertainty level just cause they had a good short term run.
IxCoin is up 300% and has been around a lot longer but you don't see that being moved up. And the same can be said about a number of other alt coins.
Let's have some halfway strict standards about this thing, lest these candidate lists get filled with tons of CrapCoins and scammer pump and dumps.
It will be interesting to hear your comments towards the end of the year when both these coins have more than doubled their market caps.
Doubled in 3 months? Is that supposed to be impressive?
Welcome to alt coins where coins double in days not months.
I'd like to see CGB and MEC a) consistently go up as Bitcoin goes up and b) to see them maintain their new highs as Bitcoin blows past $200.
Cause it's obvious to me, most coins and especially scrypt will get slaughtered by the coming BITCOIN price boost.
Any coin that can prove to go up against bitcoin and maintain their gains then deserves to be moved up in rank.
Actually I think you need to examine your charts again. MΣC is up about 400% in the last month. If it doubles again by the end of the year, it will be 800% from a month ago, and about 30,000% since I started mining it. Bitcoin is only up slightly in the last 30 days, and no Bitcoin does not consistently go up. It is just like any other investment, it fluctuates. Much of Bitcoin's new found value is from other junk coins being mined, and sold to buy Bitcoin. The same thing is happening with MΣC and CGB. But like I said, wait till the end of the year, and compare notes again.
