between quark and dogecoin?
depends if you just want to day trade maybe doge, but if you want to hold for awhile, QRK is a no brainer ...

Quark has some top notch guys in it's community. Go for Quark, lot of developments coming and it's different features are very interesting. doge is extremely overrated and with billions coins already in existence it won't go up much anymore. Quark has an awesome application coming which is really a must have. http://forum.qrk.cc/thread/875/quark-community-design-offical-website?page=8
Not sure but I just got me 2 more Quarks after reading your post. Time will tell.
Gamecoin GME - all-in and wait till they are US$1 each sometime in 2014.
200 gme in my pocket!
dogecoin overpriced like hell, its gonna be like 100kkk of them
my prediction 10-20 satoshi per dogecoin after 2-3 months
just buy bitcoin/litecoin with realmoney and forget about them for a year or two

All good coins mentioned here,
1. quark - forget all the fud, this coin has momentum now and mainstream media coverage, it is stable and will increase in price. Any required changes to the code can be taken care of when and if needed. Tons of clones so that shows you what people think.
2. DMD - total sleeper coin, great design - will go MUCH higher - awesome name. Bit of a spike right now, get a bit and increase gradually.
3. DOGE - lots of momentum will go higher but not sure how much too early to say but i have come around to this as has too much coverage to die off now anytime soon.
4. WDC - great community worth a shot.
5. CGB - still cheap.
6. Digi - still cheap. - awesome name
7. netcoin - good community....hold off and wait to see after this current spike. - awesome name
8. applecoin - i got a few of these, can't hurt just in case some nice media attention drops on it.
9. ADT - low in price atm because they are working on a fix. Wait a bit more then buy in just as the fix has taken place and all is good, will shoot up too.
Spread your funds between coins. Hold a few of all of them.
i think prime is still waiting for a rocket too.
Totally worth holding some established tier 1 coins too - ppc nmc ltc etc. BTC - yes of course a few of those too.

I invested in Doge, WDC, and some FRK recently, any other good suggestions?
look at NXT and soon Emunie
Quark for sure
NXT has creeped up into the top 5 cryptos and is only just starting to get attention. Look at these points for NXT:
1. No mining required -100% proof of stake (this beats PeerCoin's main advantage). No wasted mining power
2. Faster transaction times than Bitcoin or Litecoin
3. Alias system (beats Namecoin's unique selling point).
4. Ridiculous number of cool features coming in the next month - peer to peer decentralised exchange, marketplace, anonymous messaging system, voting system

A computer that is equipped with relevant GPU to mine scrypt coins is much harder to find. A virus that utilizes GPU is much harder to write

CPU is too slow to become a problem with scrypt coins. Have you ever mined a scrypt coin using CPU?

I'm referring to mining using GPU; I understand that mining scrypt with CPU would be fruitless, even with 100K+ nodes. A few notes; once a system is infected it's no more difficult to mine with CPU than it is to run a silent CMD with an infection package and mine using GPU (it's the same thing from the virus' perspective). As far as finding suitable GPU zombies; that's not very difficult in today's market of directed infection. Going after architecture firms, marketing companies, and AV outfits is a quick way to guarantee quality GPU's. There is the common flaw of hitting nVidia machines, but with a large infection that wouldn't be a huge concern.
I said that: A computer that is equipped with relevant GPU to mine scrypt coins is much harder to find. Do you remember that cgminer does not work with on board GPU or every GPU on the market?
If you write such a virus, you may know that the effect will not be high. if you are a virus writer, you may find that it could add some KH/s to your mining rigs. It can not be used as an effective way to perform 51% attack. However, if you want to attack Quark, you will find that it is too easy for you. Every computer can be used to attack Quark. If someone want to control Quark with 51% attack, it is very serious.
Quark is vulnerable actually.
Unfortunately it looks like DOGE is in the downward spiral already so no money to be made there.
Quark price action over the last month combined with the wsj and reuters news stories make it look like big money has moved in.
Quark's upside potential is minimum 10x from here and it might even reach close to the LTC price.
The LTC price is the topside barrier not the $1 a coin price as some suggest.

DOGE is a joke.. IF you're dumb enough to invest 10,000$ into a coin that the owners flat out said was a joke, then just hand me your money. Do the math on how many coins are produced for a coin.. If its in the retarded amounts category chances are its a shit coin... You'll buy, I'll dump and you'll be stuck with them forever. I was in quark til it got sketchy(as in HAZARD started promoting it) sold, and made my millions so to speak.. My eyes are on MEC and WDC, both coins that hazard absolutely hates so its a good buy lol.

Why not take a smaller amount and put it in a coin with a little more risk and reward.
I'd suggest CSC or LOT, as we all love to gamble.
Good luck though!

Quark looks to me better decision.
Please don't listen to these guys advertising coins they are associated with. I won't offer any specific coin advice, apart from do your own research. Personally, alts are a huge risk and even though it seems logical that they will rise up with BTC they could tumble down as they could lose importance. NEVER invest all of your money into one coin. If it were me, personally, I'd stick with a 70% BTC, 20% LTC, 5% WDC, 5% various coin split.

TAG of course, don't be stupid.
Quark network is very insecure because it is designed to be CPU only from the beginning. Quark becomes fresh meat to bot nets easily. Does such a cryptocurrency have a future? No
Diamond has some nice features that Quark will never have
+ Proof of Stake coin is more resilient to 51% attack. Since 51% hashpower is not enough to execute a 51% attack. The attackers must also have at least 51% stake. CPU only coin like is extremely vulnerable to 51% attack without using special hardware like ASIC. Bot nets are enough.
+ Transaction message: This is a must-have feature to integrate users' wallet with merchant payment gateway. Without it, Quark is just dump wallet. (EarthCoin has it too. Nice)
+ Fast but stable block generation: 60 seconds. Quark chooses 30 seconds which is very risky. Read the following explanation to see why: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annsbc-from-death-comes-life-the-rebirth-of-stablecoin-urgent-update-349198 and https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annsbc-stablecoin-a-new-breed-of-cryptocurrency-v12-released-227766 (StableCoin developer is really competent. I can not see it in Quark)
Quark design is flawed. No future for it.

Why does that argument (botnet) keep getting used against CPU coins. Once a system is infected it is just as easy to utilize the GPU as it is to use the CPU. In fact, more AV solution will recognize CPU utilization before a GPU intensive process. If anything, a botnet has a better chance to attack a scrypt coin than a CPU based coin. Server networks are a different story, but those types of botnets have rarely been successful and have an even smaller chance when trying to utilize an ephemeral port for the connection.
