This should be changed to Most Promising Altcoins for This Month there's so many of them now. I'm guessing the Keisercoin is gonna be pretty 'big' for Feburary.

Coins to "come out of nowhere" in 2014 (Not necessarily in order)...

1. Dogecoin
2. Teslacoin
3. Mooncoin seems to have some interest stirring.
4. Potcoin


Established coins which will gain or maintain status in 2014...

1. Bitcoin, obviously, though it's not an alt-coin... it's THE coin.
2. Litecoin
3. Anoncoin - Expect Us.
4. Looking into Worldcoin on a friend's recommendation, so I'll put that on this list too.

I already gave my support for Worldcoin but I am also watching Maxcoin and Zerocoin with interest both are pretty unique.

Will be interesting to see the value of DOGE in April, when all the coins will be mined (the coin is already 38% mined after only a few months...).

You have to ask yourself why, if the most successful and second most successful crypto coins both have long term mining schedules, almost every single altcoin has a very short mining schedule. I doubt it is because they are trying to be successful. To do that you take what already works and build on it.



+1

For the currency to actually function as a currency you need the widest adoption possible. A long mining cycle does this. It also secures the network for a long time so that by the time the coin production tapers down to almost nothing there will be enough fees to pay the miner s to keep mining.

A 6 month cycle leaves almost no time for adoption. In quarks case it was even worse because it flew under the radar for so long by the time the price surged it had been almost mined out. Benefiting a few.

Despite Quarks unique hashing algorithms if some other very profitable to mine CPU coins come out and hashing shifts away, it could leave Quark more susceptible to a 51% attack.

Is your butt sore? Can't handle the truth? Quarks community for a coin with a $900 daily maintenance cost and a $20million market cap is great. Read it again

Could you please explain? What truth? Where is the Quark community? Link would be enough... Or try to explain it with words/constructive sentences. I believe you learned that in school last year.

Peercoin is awesome.

It doesn't need to be used for goods and services because it's not designed for that. Peercoin is being designed as a store of value. You can gain interest on it if you mint proof of stake.

If crypto-currency were to become more mainstream, or even ubiquitous, people will need an equivalent to a savings account that gains interest.

When peercoin is spent, this balances out the inflation a little bit because that transaction fee is destroyed, if spending becomes too slow, more inflation occurs for PoS minting, devaluing everyones a little bit, encouraging more to be spent.

My vote goes to Peercoin.

eMunie and Curecoin.

Curecoin- Basically getting paid for folding proteins to help find cures, instead of just wasting all that electricity for securing the network only.

eMunie- 2nd gen coin that is will be the first to have 100% anonymous transactions, messaging system, marketplace, feedback system and more. It also operates on a much better economic model than all these other "alt-coins" and even has price stabilizing mechanisms built in to help avoid huge moves in price. Basically a crypto that will be useful for everyday use, instead of of a speculative commodity.

Both of these are not launched yet, so they both offer a lot of promise for early adopters.
