Bitcoin ofcourse will be on top of the ranking list. For the 2nd it will be Ethereum and 3rd positions is tough to predict, let the Q4 come and then it can be possible.
But as per the current market capitalization XRP, BCH and NEM seems to have chances of taking 3rd place. I would like to see BCH or NEM, NEM being similar to ethereum and a good one, I see chances of it.

Its too early to decide, there are lots of ongoing projects that looks good, there will be some changes after including it on an exchange, new coins might affect the others base on the impact on its demand. (It only applies at third place though.) Btc and Eth will still be at top of their competition whos third is too early to consider.
For me, BTC, ETH and LTC will be the TOP 3 coins
You want to know top 3 coin this year . you don't tell for short time or long time It's so heart I think ETH best all time . then I select waves and next.
The first two are probably not going to get displaced within this year, but very possibly in the coming years as new useful coins pop up.
For #3, I think Ripple may end the year taking the #3 spot, and drop down next year. BCH is hanging around but I'd expect it to be treated similarly to ETC and lose popularity over time.

For me the most trusted coins this year are : Monero, Ethereum and obvious one Bitcoin. Monero is getting stability day by day and I’m loving the way its mining difficulty is. I can easily mine it as compared to other coins and yet have profits with it due to its optimum prices. Other coins either lack the potential to mine or price is not worth it. Rest coins that is Ethereum and bitcoin are always great to invest as they are gaining the price upto 100% each month. Just love it to do that.
BTC and ETH will remain #1 and #2 respectively. #3 will be heavily contested. Let's look at our candidates within the current top 10:
XRP -- Should have never come as far as #3 in the first place due to its centralized issuance, so I doubt it will be able to hold its spot.
BCH -- Will remain strong, but is basically BTC with much less support, so won't reach #3 for its lack of differentiation.
NEM -- I'll be honest, I still have no idea what they are about.
LTC -- Now that the Segwit hype-cycle has come to an end, LTC will probably not have enough differentiation to claw its way up to #3.
IOTA -- Interesting concept, but I don't see IoT taking off any time soon. If anything it seems like the hype has subsided.
NEO -- Their aim to support multiple programming languages for smart contracts looks way too ambitious to be honest.
DASH -- Looked promising, but I'm not sure whether they can keep up.
ETC -- What ETH was meant to be, but will probably starve due to lack of support.
So what's left? The Segwit2x hardfork. Should a hardfork occur, 2x will likely have more support than BCH and thus could stick around at #3. We'll have an Ethereum sandwich with Bitcoin as buns.

On my list.
First is bitcoin. It's very obvious and we already reach it's new all time high as we hit $3700 hours ago and still going up. We all know what's the capability of bitcoin. The community, the massive adoption. Many countries are supporting this technology. Many believes that it can go up to $10000 a piece over time(including me).
Second is Ethereum. This is one of the most popular token next to Bitcoin. Has a huge community, and now ethereum market is getting bigger and bigger. Many believes that it could be the next big thing and will replace bitcoin as the new king of cryptoland. For now, i will just put it to second place.
And the third one is IOTA. From top 20 to top 7 at coinmarketcap. Reaching almost $2 billions of marketcap. It amaze me. In just short period of time. Look at it's achievement. Luckily i bought some miotas when the price is cheaper. Also IOTA is the biggest community on slack. This one is promising.

Bitcoin, Bitcoin and bitcoin that will be the top 3 coins not just thisnyear but for years to come more 
No one has mentioned NEO yet. NEO has the ability to take the 2nd spot no questions asked. NEO is like ethereum but programmers have even more ability to control what language they program their functions with this NEO cryptocurrency. For instance not only solidity, serpent and LLL like ethereum but also C+, java and more. It opens up lower entry points for programmers to get into using NEO has their platform of choice where as ethereum has a higher entry point. The current team at this company just held their conference at microsoft headquarters in Beijing sometime in June so they have some force behind them. In the last week alone it has jumped from $7 to $41 completely on speculation. This coin will rise to $100 or more and that is only the beginning. Yesterday I personally saw the market cap go to 2 billion dollars and just a week and a half ago it was only $7 a share.
Btc and eth would most likely stay at 1 and 2 though nbr 3 would be contested steadily by a couple of alts with the addition of bcc. It's easy for us i think this year to give the top two spots to the holders last year and the third, probably betweem litecoin or bitcoin cash if it gets more acceptance, which it probably will in a couple of months
Fungibility is becoming a major issue. And I think if BTC-e relaunches, it'll be a big test for non-private cryptocurrencies. Will exchanges start freezing accounts with funds linked to BTC-e?
Privacy coins like XMR and Zcash could see their day in the sun, in that case...

WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL BE THE TOP 3 COINS THIS YEAR?
Bitcoins always be number one and be difficult to be replaced by other altcoins until todayEthereum will always be number two even ethereum can be replaced by bitcoins cash
Ripple always be number three because the Banks will adopt XRP for remitance payment
They will be the top 3 coins this year check out this link https://coinmarketcap.com/
Definitely Bitcoin is in the first place, And no one coin take this place.The second place is for Ethereum and no once can bid this place also. But i cant say about third place,its to hard to say. There are a lot of crypto whose are potential in my eyes. Bitcoin cash although take place in 3rd place but it cant stay here.This place will be taken by another coin sooner.
Bitcoin of course will retain the #1 spot.
Next will almost certainly be Ethereum, given how beneficial it is to the industry.
Finally, Litecoin will be 3rd given that it is still going strong and considered the "silver" of crypto.

The king will remain the king at its first place, the bitcoin. The second and third place will be the competitive ones and according to me ETH will remain at the second position as its increasing at a good speed and may remain at the second position for a long term. The third place is the most unpredictable one and nobody knows who will be at the third place. According to me the third place can be taken by BitcoinCash or Ripple or OMG. OMG is gaining a huge crowd nowadays and going high quickly.
It's pretty hard to say as of now. What I'm only kinda sure of is bitcoin will still be number 1 for this year, or atleast on top 3 via coinmarketcap, since personally I think it's possible for bitcoin to be overtaken by maybe a better cryptocurrency in the future. The competitive spot would be number 2 or number 3, whereas I think the cryptocurrencies that would be fighting for that spot would be Bitcoin Cash(BCC/BCH), Monero(XMR), Ethereum(ETH), Litecoin(LTC), Dash(DASH), and IOTA. Yes. IOTA. Who knows though, a brand new cryptocurrency that isn't currently invented yet will arise maybe a year later that could steal one of the top 3 spots.
