Title: List of time tested alt coins
Post by: jeffytune on May 28, 2017, 11:35:32 PM
Do you know about time tested alt coins who have survived at least 3 years and have steady growth but not in top 20 right now?

There used to be a popular coin named peercoin before the emergence of heavyweights alt coins but now it doesnt make headlines.

I've heard of peercoin...but I'm sure no one uses it as currency.  Doge, Dash, namecoin, litecoin are the big ones that come to mind.  People actually use litecoin and doge in a limited way to buy things, and they're useful.  But if you're looking for growth coins, none of the above fit that bill.  This is the problem with them.  There's hype, they pop, then they fizzle.  And why?  Because there are so many on the market that there just aren't enough people who're going to use them for anything.

goldcoin and unobtanium come to mind. I'd never invest in them because they're POW clone coins with nothing to offer, but for a quick pump I suppose... NEM is going to be the tech that takes cryptos to the next level. The work going on with mijin right now is going to pay handsomely in the long haul.  

http://mijin.io/en/about-mijin

"Mijin is being built by the NEM development team, using their proven experience and technological prowess. Working with other developers at Tech Bureau, the NEM team is making Mijin the fastest and most secure blockchain platform in existence.
Rather than trusting other projects that are copies of bitcoin or source code that others wrote, it is important to use reliable, professionally developed software that is made by a unified team. Mijin is currently the only platform in existence that fulfills this."

"Today, NEM is undergoing development of an upgraded core technology called “Catapult”. Catapult will power mijin in the first phase and become implemented into the NEM public chain subsequently."

Time tested coins for about three years with steady growth and which are not in top 20 at market cap. quite a strict filters you applied but one that I think fits the criteria quite closely would be MaidSafeCoin, I think it is time tested and has been steady too, and with much more potential to go big.
Do check it out!

I would consider Bitbay to be time tested.

The story behind that coin and the recent rise has been great for that community. The dev is also extremely active and dedicated.

Blackcoin is surely a time tested alt coin. It's been launched for over 3 years, fast and reliable.

The following coins were listed in the top 150 on CoinMarketcap on May 29, 2014, have increased in value, and are not in the current top 20. I only included those that are in the current top 150. The information changed faster than I could complete this, so numbers may be off a bit. A few of the coins have moved up in position and the returns are unbelievable!

If say Peercoin adding another future like anon or something more great it would pump again, the problem with all these coins is after creator have done and making money off of it they would moving on, including Dogecoin and Namecoin etc

You should really look at altcoins that are still alive and kicking after one year since even making it that long is quite an achievement.

i think most new comer prefer new coins, for the new coin has good performance in the market, some old coin will die as the user went away or the new technology came out

Everyone wants huge profits nowadays and why not, Digital currency has given them a ~liberal tools/methods to explore new markets.
Few years back trading was limited tovery small set of peoples and groups.
Digital currencies also provided an easy platform for that.
