theyre probably all scam coins, but if one wasn't a scam and is a 100x - 1000x - which one would it be?

SPHR, UNIFY, COSS, DDF, ENT, TKR, DALC, Q2C

Its cindicator is the real deal and the real t9ken which has value. You can see about it at datadash youtube. And you can googling it about the project about the roadmap about how smooth they run the ico.all is great in my opinion. Its not like other ico which promises bonus. All participant get same price.

Asking for opinion means that you will get influenced by someone else. The next gem is hidden and will remain so until the whale has completed to accumulate it. Then it will start being talked about in forms such as this and over twitter. DYOR

Unfortunately I've heard about SPHR only. Just because it's a little bit more popular than others. According to graphs COSS is most interesting for investment I suppose. But fundamental analysis should be much more important here.
If you have such suspicion about only these coins there is the way to make profit anyway. Divide your deposit and invest same parts at each of them ;)
P.S. Check out ZEN. It has a little bigger cap, but it's very promising coin!

"scam coins" never last long. they will always die pretty soon. having a low market cap does not make them scam, it just makes them crappy coins like others.

the same thing is true about having a high market cap. that doesn't make a coin legit, it just means the high cap coin could fool more people into investing in it than the other coins ever could.

this is why you should seriously stop looking at the market capitalization of different coins. it is very misleading.

I had a good idea about my activity tokens but I couldn't list it on any exchanges because I really didn't try, I just PMed a few exchange admins telling about my ideas and how they could benefit from it, they never responded to me, half fledged lol. I see many of scam coins are in coinmarket, it makes me feel like useless person with no hopes for the future, I need to end my life now. another half fledged lol.
All the super low caps coins are legit if they are not ICO. if they can be mined, ask yourself why no body is mining them? you are looking for something like Bitcoin but lol seriously?
Also what is COSS? I like it already even if it's a scam, because coss means pussy in my language, let me have some please. explosion of lols.

I was looking a low market caps because of higher potential returns. But i also eliminated coins that had premined, or very have low coin supply. these coins are the only ones with decent websites/roadmap, also have a certain amount of organic growth. A couple of them have anonymous dev teams, which does not inspire my confidence. but ultimately, these were the only coins worth having a look (i went through everysingle coin/token in the  100k-1mil cap on coinmarket) so yes i did do my own research, was looking more for consensus

IMHO, your approach is not that good.

Remember that you are investing and as such look for the return.  It is about percentage.

Consider all factors; market cap, coin qty, unit cost, ranking, etc. For me the most important factor is the volume.  No matter how good the dev team, the project, etc....if the people/masses don't support it, it won't go anywhere.  The best indicator of that is the daily volumes.  HOWEVER, watch for pump and dumps.  Your range is sadly the most susceptible to it.  You need to look at historical data for consistent growth/volume.  This is a general rule that may not fit all.   New coins for example may not fit well with this so adjust as needed. 

It also depends on your goal.  I have 3 categories; short, medium, and long term coins.  Each require a different approach to them.

Hope this helps.

People are talking about ebtc. The name sound so cool like a new bitcoin. The cap is super low right now. It is under 50k on coinmarketcap. The coin intend to bring smart contract to bitcoin vice- versa

There need to be at least a reason for a new coin to rise rapidly.
Among the new coins Ethereum and monero got success and we now clearly know why that happend.
In such competition there is not much to expect from new coins.
At least you can buy them cheap and sell them getting 20-50% profit.

I'm more into the longterm approach, most of the coins listed are fairly new to the market (btw i listed the wrong ticker symbol for SPHR - its actually XID) - im just hunting for the next gem  ;D

First you need to clarify what you understand for legit/scam.
For me there is no way a COIN listed in coinmarketcap to be scam because for me the definition of scam is probably different from yours. Scam for me is a project that just run away with you money and don't deliver anything almost immediately after raising funds, some of them claim they got hacked, stolen in some way.

Things I don't consider scam but just failure:
* Project deliver code but it is not working as intended by lack of technical capacity and don't go live/mainnet;
* Project lack to maintain growing interest and or user base;
* Project lack if funding / marketcap;

So for me scam is a definition pretty close to robbery and or steal like take and run and if they got listed they didn't run, at least yet !

iam prefered choose TKR(trackr)
second placed choose dent, because dent price is cheap, same with NEM can potential incraese very high

I don't know any of the listed coins. I will give a look. It is very important to chose a coin where the devs seem to be really committed. Sometimes coins die when devs just abandon them and nobody picks them up...

Before you invest in anything.  You have to do your "own" homework. 

I dont want to invest in these crappy coins because if they are belong in the lowest rank meaning almost no one would like to invest on these coins so it will become more risky for all traders if they adopt this coins. Soon if these coins cant be promoted then it will be disappear in the market list together with your small investment therefore before you invest you should do a deep research of that coin to avoid the risk.

Despite its promising value and rating, many are investing in its bounty
If from the start the launcher is merely a fraud, it will not survive the coin spinning on the bitcoin wheel
All is not a guarantee

I think none. Basically noone is sure if these are gonna be legit good project. It is like betting your money over soccer matches to invest in these coins. Devs try to portray themselves as legit businessmen but how can you know?

Low caps are tricky because most of the times there isnt much info about them but 3 that I own that I know arent scams are, there is a lot of info about them, they are about to release their products and their teams are quite solid and decently known.

Anyone who knows about an undiscovered gem will want to keep it undiscovered, so they won't share it until they've built as big a position as they want.
I don't think there's much point asking the question on here, a lot of posts will be from people wanting to dump their bags.

One of the indicators that a future coin will be a shitcoin it's the soft cap, if it's too low they're just there to try and make some quick bucks. Most of those coins look horrible

Why do you start with a claim that they are probably all scam coins? Have you taken up the task of looking at their objectives and how they would be setting up its implementation in reality? Have you read these projects' whitepapers at least? I believe SPHR is not a scam. I cannot tell as to the legitimacy of the others that you mentioned.

Its threads like these with bias, uneducated responses filled with BS and zero facts to back up claims that has created the vast amount of shitcoins we see today. Seems that a majority of crypto investors today are unintelligent individuals looking to risk their own cash for high risk high reward investments. Doing so can be successful in the short term, but the truth of the matter is that ones luck won't last. And without proper research/intelligence/dudiligence most people won't end up profiting from this form of investing.

You lost every ounce of credibility from anyone that has at least half a brain when you state something like this "Seems that a majority of crypto investors today are unintelligent individuals looking to risk their own cash for high risk high reward investments".

Every single investment in cryptocurrencies is a high risk-high reward. If you don't realize that by now, you clearly are the most delusional person here.

That your last statement really got me laughing hugely, I really needed that. I had to do some googling and I discovered it is a Farsi Language if I am correct. COSS seems to be a very good project and they have great team behind them. The project so far has been smooth and the good thing about them is that they have an exchange which I have not tried myself anyway but I believe is already trading some coins including COSS itself. I have some and I am sure going to hold for a while.

Do your own research, research more. Ask questions in the community and to the team. If you're happy with their responses consider investing.
Also, what's the value proposition, how do token holders benefit (apart from mere price increase). Good luck!

There is a coin that has the following "ingredients":

- an innovative, eco-friendly consensus algorithm that competes with Proof-of-Stake
- three different consensus algorithms (so no power group can "take it over")
- an asic-unfriendly mining algorithm that is only used in that particular coin
- will provide a decentralized web soon
- no premine nor instamine
- a technically minded, decentralized community, not a corporation or "scam project" behind it
- very low market cap of about $200.000 (one coin is worth about $0.013), at rank ~650 on Coinmarketcap.
- only traded at Novaexchange

Do your own research ;D I'll not name it here.

I think Riya (Ehteriya ) is auction based coin where the token is used for crypto based auction site it was looking good i got  some profit from this coin . Even its having very low market cap . May be after bitcoin fork it will rise .

surely. The ultimate price of a coin is defined by its usability rather than its availability. If people are not using a coin, they would have no value.
So, most of the low cap coins are ponzi.

Almost all altcoins have some characteristics of Ponzi schemes. There is even a top 15 coin that is tied to a simple HYIP (=Ponzi) scheme (I don't want to name it explicitly, but most here will know which one I mean).

Here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1932126) you can see how "much" even Top 10 coins are "used" (tl;dr: Only Ethereum and Ripple have some use, the rest are basically pure speculation vehicles).

Inversely, the fact that a coin has a "low cap" doesn't make it automatically a Ponzi candidate. But you're actually right that one has to be careful. There is the well-known "Reviving Death Coins" scheme, where an old and unknown coin gets new life when some "developers" buy most of the supply for almost no cost, pump it (with one or two new releases) and dump it burning lots of "greater fools (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_fool_theory)".

Talking about Slimcoin  ;D

Hey guys, check out this relatively unknown project here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2144509.msg22885275#msg22885275

I really cannot even stress enough how much I don’t give a dog’s poop about all the shitcoins mentioned above. It’s not that I am too busy to read further about them, it’s just that I don’t see them as something worth my time and effort. Better invest on other coins that have better potential. I ain’t gonna mention any coz i am not payed to advertise them. Just know that there are coins that are a lot more better than those.

U will get influenced by someone else's opinion

If it do only same like BTC - SCAM
Do test of current implemented functions, most sites, roadmaps and whitepapers is SCAM.
For example: SIACOIN have work but impossible to use it cose you need download huge amount of data before you can deposit you files.
Find something what potentially will get wide use and compare with current maket cap.
