There are so many shit coins out there - that it's tough to figure out which one is decent.
I look for three things
1) the TECH - and is it scalable
2) The TEAM
3) The Whitepaper
SONM checks all three boxes. I bought a 1000 just because they signed a contract with a major Russian cloud services provider on September 25th/26th. That's why the price hike. And they are in Barcelona now, and another announcement coming in 5-7 days.
It's a coin - and if price drop again, I am buying more.
But DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND IT'S YOUR OWN HARD EARNED $$
There are so many out there with your number 1, but with no way to execute it. I bought in last week because I felt these guys can do that and are already putting in the hard work, instead of waiting for things to magically happen.
