well whatever offers/offered something new and noteworthy. simply using different algorithms isn't that amazing, and if they are limited to CPU and draw a lot of electricity it is probably a step back...

litecoin
peercoin
megacoin started out as a copycat but the dev did decent work with the diff adjustment so I'll list it
primecoin
nxt
anoncoin
florincoin implemented transaction messages first iirc, however the name sounds sickening to me
united scrypt coin - first scrypt merge mine, something that noirbits promised but did not deliver
gridcoin


new algos:
litecoin
copperlark
skeincoin
yacoin

If you're asking about 100x - 1000x pumps and dumps (Quark is pumped in such a way), so I can definitely say that it is Datacoin. Its economical model will not work both at very high and very low prices, so it won't be pumped a lot. 2x, 3x, 5x - not more, it's not required by coin at all.

Something a lot of people don't realize... is coins that have been pumped and dumped in the past still have a chance of succeeding. Even bitcoin has been subjected to pump and dump.

The only genuine ones that I can think of to offer something new (I may have missed some) that were created during the time of the Great 2013 Shitflood of Crap Coins are:

Anoncoin

Primecoin

I see so many pump and dump worthless altcoins being created in the past few months, it's crazy and could harm BTC's reputation.

The only altcoins I can see that could serve a genuine purpose, or offer something different to Bitcoin would be Litecoin and Peercoin, and potentially primecoin.

What do you all think? Do you notice any altcoins that offer something more beneficial over BTC?
