Title: Investigating the alt-coin scene..
Post by: IlluminatiGoldMember on July 06, 2016, 12:25:36 AM
Please help me  ;D

Looking to invest in altcoins (and boy are there a lot) but can't seem to find any easy answers to these questions:

  • What developer teams are the best?
  • Which have a focus on commercially applying their technology?
  • Do coin holders get rights to profits from commercial endeavours?


Thanks

what is your definition of "best"?

Who does not want commercial success?

Number 3 is the best question of all.  These guys just wrote some code that does exactly that:

http://cointelegraph.com/news/blockchain-breakthrough-peerplays-creates-open-source-fee-sharing-module

Whether any of that gets adopted is another story.   I am skeptical.   Some might even say I'm pessimistic beyond any cynicism you could possibly dream up. 

OP, this question has been asked over and over so much that all the color has faded and it's threadbare.   This here forum does have a search function which you would do well to avail yourself of.

With this kind of username you should be able to pay someone to do research if you have limited time to research yourself.

Look for a well diverse, experience developer team that provide full transparency throughout the entire process. The more they are willing to reveal about themselves the better. Also there is something to be said about developers with good grammar and spelling.

Altcoin market is really risky business.

Rule number 1 is trust no one.

Rule number 2 is don't invest what you are not willing to lose.

Rule number 3 is do your own research.

No answer exists to your questions: if X is the  best team why should someone invest in Y?
So why should Y even exist?

I'll order one of my servants to do that.

Thanks
