Take a look at Saffroncoin.
Price is so low right now. It can only rise .
Dev always delivers. (check the thread ) (not moderated since begining)
SFRDirect will be released soon (in the matter of days (at max) ). Decentralized Exchange.
It is shortterm investition. But it is one of the best investment oportunities right now.

Many people say different altcoins are better than others but I don't really see any proof as of yet. What altcoin should I invest in? How do I know if an altcoin is succeeding? I have many questions, but I can't seem to find an answer easily :S

Have you seen CoinGecko?
My advice to you is to do loads and loads of research don't believe all the hype out there.


coingecko is a joke, every stat it has about bitshares is completely wrong, for example it says that there are only 66 closed issues in development instead of 882. They also feel that facebook "likes" should be counted in the community rate but not the forum stats of a coin.

You shouldn't invest into altcoins.

Now, crypto 2.0 technologies is a different matter.

Altcoin is just a coin like Bitcoin; crypto 2.0 are platforms to leverage decentralization with many use cases.

2 of the most promising. nxt is 1 year ahead of nem so far less risky.

but you need nxt to buy nem..... 24% reserved of nem for ppl who started it...... faint smell of fish?

25% for development does not mean 25% for the devs.. the devs(5 people + (i think)who ever else they think deserves a reward for helping nem be it in marketing or what not.) will get 15% split between them MAXIMUM and only 10% of that 15% will be distributed at launch. the other 5% will be slow released over time. the rest i would think bounties, hiring other developers and what ever other costs are incurred from development/marketing/promotion etc etc. devs wont get 25%.

you only need nxt to buy nem to buy a stake prior to launch.. we are currently in the redemption period and the majority of stakes have been sent back along with a nem address so that the nem can be redeemed for real nem. there is no other way that we could have traded stakes prior to launch other than issuing assets on the AE to people who registered for a stake. there is no "fish" in nem.. i can assure you of that. the devs have worked tirelessly for nearly a year to produce the brilliant platform that is nem. they are also not launching nem until multisig is ready so that the community can be completely confident in the fact that no one is going to "run with the money".

Nxt is one of the big crypto 2.0 coins. It's got it's own decentralized exchange built into the wallet and other features that bitcoin clones lack.

It's a reasonable bet that you're safe on that one; here's a full list of every coin name / symbol that we could find a trace of:

Don't wish so much about altcoin price. Buy and sell quickly only if you want.

Imagine you are asking a merchant if he accepts a certain coin? Which name would draw his interest? Which name would spark his desire? Which name will consumers embrace? Which names give rise to laughter?

"Excuse me sir, do you accept ______Coin?" << Fill in the blank

In the end, it will be consumer consensus that decides the winners and the losers. And consumers are name brand sensitive and brand loyal.

Good point.  If the master plan doesn't include an intelligent sounding name, then's it's very likely the coin is nothing more than a "look what I can do mom" project.  There have been coins that have changed their names, but I haven't followed any of them so I don't know if the name change had any significance.  People have long memories and "RidiculousCoin" will always be "RidiculousCoin", even after a name change.

Presale is live!
Thanks for your replies guys! I really love all your responses. Special thanks to Chase, your response was most complete and I'll try and follow your steps. Well for favoritism on altcoins it's pretty obvious, everyone likes something that will give high profit on the long run, including me.

I'll keep looking at the altcoins, but until I find one that I completely trust I'll stick to bitcoins and that's it.
Thanks again guys!

Well, tell us which coins you prefer and I'm quite sure you get all the answers you need  Wink

In generel I like alt coins with unique features in regard to other coins. It should have something really new and useful.
Secondly the support of coins decides about success or fail.
