Bitcoin Forum

Hi guys,

Maybe we can have a discussion on Altcoins with potential based on their fundamentals and usecases? In other words, shill me your altcoin and explain why it will gain investor interest.

Let's discuss!

based on fundamentals and usecases i think ethereum and binance coin is the answer, and both altcoins have strong community too

And you may not find so much more. If you look deep at the crypto cryptomarket with more than 3000 cryptocurrencies, it's almost impossible to find 500 cryptocurrencies with real usecases. The great majority are bullshits developped to scam money from others. Some even think that ethereum is a scammy project who have been made just to create more shit tokens as there are still no real use in daily life of the smart-contracts.

Personally, i think eth and bnb are good coins and i may also add monero and grin.

Are you asking for top 5 alts or 500? I do not think that 500 alts even exist that fullfill all the criterias like practicality, use cases, massive supporters, excellent team, quality development, real world partnerships and market confidence. So its better to stay with the top ones like eth, xlm, ada, neo, ltc, waves and xrp.

It seems that the OP has typo error here. I don't think we can list the top 500 as we may not find those valuable 500 alts. But yes, top 5 is easier. Based on your top alts, why is btc missing? Or it is already considered to be the default choice? And if I may add, I will choose EOS and BNB as well. But will think about waves as they are quite poor in getting their community active. They can't even make a noise with their new waves.exchange. Seems to me that this platform is dying slowly.

I'm going for ETH 2.0

It is one of the first 5 with the best market!

Now with the POS we will see to earn very good interest ..

I think your question is a bit flawed, let me explain why. The best way IMO to make money in crypto is to invest in projects outside of the top 500, projects that haven't increased in value yet. What you are basically saying is that only the top 500 projects by marketcap have any use case, this is wrong. There are a lot of dead chains and tokens with ponzi economics with no utility in the top 50 CMC. I suggest looking at new projects listings on CMC etc. and start there, that's how I found 0xMR and eXRD.

In my opinion Ethereum, Binance coin, Huobi token and Kucoin shares have actual use case and strong fundamentals. All of them have a strong fundamentals and great community..

But I doubt you will be able to find 500 altcoins with actual use case. There are many that have strong fundamentals.

I hope you aren't trying to take risks with coins under top 100 on coinmarketcap because of altcoin season? I know that in 2017 many coins under top 100 brings better profits than top rated coins but that was then, bullrun today isn't about hype but really use cases, same thing might not happen this time around

According to my estimate we may hardly find top 500 altcoins with actual use cases as we can see the whole crypto market has filled up with mostly trash altcoins there will be only few altcoins which will have actual use case in which only Ethereum seems to me a strong altcoin with actual use cases on its fundamental and technical basis.

Top 500 coins? Isn't that much and what can someone be possibly doing with 500 coins, will he be able to keep track of it in cases like swapping etc, well in my own opinion it's much. Also, I do not think one can also see top 500 altcoins with actual and applicable use cases, most of the coins in coinmarketcap have nothing other than hype which gradually fades and the project forgotten. Nevertheless, I do not hold many coins, I only hold those which have something to offer and hence can last long term, and of course, the first in my portfolio is Ethereum, we know how it has been growing and how the team have been trying to upgrade it and so on. Secondly, Binance coin, this is an exchange coin whose team are also experts in bringing in new features. XLM, Tezos and ADA also made my list because their teams are one of the best, and to me, once a team is active and serious then the coin will be a valuable one.

Oh, maybe I did not formulate this very well. I meant which are the coins OUT OF the top 500 (marketcap) coins that have strong fundamentals.

That's a very good point! Do you have any pointers for how to find the coins that have potential to boom? How is your strategy here?

it's very hard find so many good altcoins.
you need to study and have a deep knowledge of several markets, since for each one there is a market with several competitors.
I think there is a general mistake that "new bitcoin" are popping everywhere on CMC.
Despite a couple of example it's very hard have another coin that could monopolize and be the strongest on the market for a long time like bitcoin...this is also why all people are bullish about bitcoin and dislike investment in general altcoins.

Any project that is under top 100 on coinmarketcap are high risks projects, you should stay away from such projects because anything can happen to them at any time, if you want to take risks go for coins in top 100 and make sure their developments is ongoing

No need to search for the top 500 coins on Coinmarketcap, because they are not there. The best coins are listed on the first page of the Coinmarketcap rating. But when choosing a coin for investment, I would limit myself to only time-tested coins, one of which would be bitcoin.

Why would I even try to shill anyone with 5 alts? List 500 alts, and to write a review about each of them, why would anyone try to write a book about it? :)
There're many alts currently, and how it looks we will have even more alts in the future, and like always 90% will be shit/scam projects, and 9% will make something more, only 1% (or even less) will be good, worth attention projects!
If you don't know where to invest, just put your money on btc and eth and chill! Don't bother yourself with others!

First of all, 500 is not possible at all. If would have to pick one, ETH 2.0 will be my choice. Another undervalued project is WABI.

- WABI is trying to leverage blockchain technology to reduce/avoid serious harm to consumer's health due to counterfeit goods. Goods produced by companies under WABI ecosystem are basically placed with anti-counterfeit labels which can be verified by consumers using an application. On the other hand, consumers use WABI tokens to buy products where they get small rewards as well.

This is an anti-counterfeit label to place at the origin containing encrypted ID and geographical data.

If asking 500 altcoins with actual usecases i think you cam find there at coinmarket or in exchangers like binance exchanger I know there are many altcoins that have potential and can be used in the future but who knows if the community is big and has a strong project is eth 2.0 and it can be said that many participated in its stake event and it is expected that many more investors will participate in it.

Phore is currently outside the top 500 MC ~$5m but has seriously strong fundamentals and a team that is working continually to take this community governed project where the Masternode owners vote to take it. They have a Decentralized marketplace which will soon also act as a Decentralised exchange. On top of this, they have been building a brand new platform and are in the final stages of development, this platform will support sharding and smart contracts, making it the perfect platform to build a project on. Some of the code they're writing(from scratch) is actually being used in the development of ETH2.0. Don't let the small-cap fool you, this is a serious project to consider.
The team is always active on their discord channel https://discord.gg/8uSEzCR (https://discord.gg/8uSEzCR)

What?? top 500 coins that have strong fundamentals and use case?? If you ask only for 5 or 10 examples, it makes sense, but you ask about 500coins, you kidding right?? I will give you an example, Binance coin BNB, we know that the fundamentals are so strong, and their use case on their exchange are definite. You will get a lot of benefits if you buy these coin

I think the 500 altcoins you have are not very good and interesting, you better have 10 altcoins but have very good potential that can generate a lot of profit, one of which is Ethereum, XRP, XLM, BNB and others which in my opinion are listed in the 10th rank Coinmarketcap can already be considered.

I just assumed this meant Alt coins in the top 500 by marketcap, not that they wanted people to give 500 examples of projects with clout?

Only the top few coins, which are still in my analysis, have real use cases, the top 500 coins are too many, and most of them don’t work well.
Maybe BNB, eth, Ltc and a few more coins can still be traded because the performance is quite good and therefore the trading volume is good enough
for the top 10 coins. If you want more, you need a more in-depth analysis of the coins. But my advice is don’t have too many up to 500 coins.

I won't waste my time with the top 500 altcoins because the top 200-300 altcoins are enough to make a big investment. So many altcoins continuously jump out of the top 500 altcoins. Any scam projects can live a long time in the top 500 altcoins but the top 200 isn't possible. Some top 200 new altcoins are risk free if you can buy below ICO price, just wait for this opportunity.

If it is about the top 500 coins, better to search at first on the crypto trackers such as CMC or CoinGecko. Although it is considered that there is also some manipulation, at least, we have certain basic data of the coin that we want to know and invest in.

Then, if you are asking people here, I am sure that every head will probably offer different ideas (except the top coin such as Ethereum).

And for me, some coins here are good enough:
- DEAp coin
- DIA
 They are new actually.

So, do your own research further before deciding.

Top 500? I can't write down 500 coin list here just because you wanted, that is too much to ask from strangers online. Or maybe you want coins that is good in usecase and have strong fundamentals AND inside the top 500, that would make a lot more sense but you need to word it like that if you want people to understand you correctly.

I would say as long as we have the trio of btc, eth and bnb I do not think we need more usecase and strong fundamentals. You have bitcoin which normally doesn't have a usecase all of its own but it is accepted in many places online and you can pay with it in millions of places (now with paypal even more) and you have ethereum which has an amazing blockchain and many things are based on it and used like crazy for transactions, and you have bnb lastly which is coin for binance which is a billion dollar company that this token is used for.

I will always go with Ethereum as it has strong use case and good fundamental

- Defi platform protocol prefer Ethereum than others
- Launch of ETH 2.0

ChainLink will be my #2 since it is crucial for Defi

Not really sure if you mean Top 500 as in all the 500 coins or coins that is around Top 500
Anyhow good luck with your pick

Chainlink is a good choice considering the recent development is pretty good. Maybe NEO, Polkadot and Cardano have a good chance too, considering they also have good technology

During the time I was researching new projects, I just realized that Kira Network is a true bright star.
This is a brand new idea in Trend Defi, they create an interchain exchange protocol that is backed by the liquidity of staked assets (including crypto, fiat, etc.).
In addition to their liquidity, we don't have to worry as KIRA supports staking derivative staking tokens 1: 1 to maintain security while providing liquidity of all assets under development stake.

One more thing, KIRA Network provides access to DeFi applications like Interchain Exchange Protocol (IXP). This is one of the first blockchain applications to be deployed on KIRA Network.
- They completely provide intermediary services to help investors access Defi projects more easily as well as token sale. I highly appreciate Kira Network for its creativity as well as responding to the needs of the current crowd.

Most of altcoins don`t have any really helpful usecases. I like their technical part and community and also I reckon some of them will be useful in future, but for now they are uselees. I like eGLD and look forward to its Maiar and other big updates, because project is really potential, but alack of usecases doesn`t let it to grow

It can take several weeks for a detailed study of 500 altcoins.  Instead of investing in 500 different projects, it is better to choose the best altcoins, 10-20 projects are enough.

Interesting. But why should their coin increase in value?

Sorry guys, I did not formulate the topic very well. Of course, I did not expect anyone to list 500 coins. I rather meant to ask what are your favorite coins out of the top 500. What I really wanted to indicate is that I am interested in lesser known coins with strong potential for usecases and utility. I have changed the title accordingly.

Probably Defi projects are lesser know which may have some use case but most of the actual use coins are known but got lesser value.I will go with Litecoin which is popular and I feel it is undervalued compared to its actual use case.

Always go for three things when you are investing and you will most probably make a profit in the long run, it is definitely not guaranteed but it is a lot bigger possibility that you will make a profit if you take a look at these three things.

One is marketcap, it has be to be high, some people only invest in top 10, some do top 100 but when you go under top 100 you are going to get not so good coins, they are going to be very risky to invest, not saying don't do it but just know you are doing something risky which may pay well or may crash.

Second is utility, is there anything we can use that coin for? Do not look at just their own market or something because that is not good enough, think of it like ETH where it is used everywhere, or BNB which is used in binance, find a reason to be used. Third and last is decentralization, some coins are too dependent on their team and that is a big no no for me.

Being the most advanced blockchain i will suggest cardano but i was reading an interview of some co-founder or the chairman of the cardano group and he was saying that it will still take quite a long time to build cardano as it is very complex network but having said that i think good things do take time to build so im very bullish about cardano especially in 2021.

in this top 500 certainly there is Phore $PHR, the decentralized marketplace will be absolutely competitive with the current amazon and thanks to privacy, user data will be protected and not collected to receive targeted and invasive advertising. Furthermore, being a Phore holder will allow you to receive the Graphene airdrop, the new project is innovative and thanks to the enormous scalability through the sharding technology and dedicated shard it will be able to manage 100,000+ TPS thus supporting the new DeFi in an economic way. It will obviously be interoperable with other blockchains.
The expectations are huge.

I suggest looking into the winners of the last bull run: things like XRP, ADA, VET, XMR, BNB. Some smaller coins like SYS , SIA, or BAT are also interesting, they started out with good tech and ideas and are still around.

Potential usecases and % completion VS price.
Only Bitbay stands out to me enough to consider risking additional btc.
I believe it was in the top 6 largest winners in the last bull run and has advanced immensely since then technically. I hear they are also planning and designing an in house decentralised multi sig exchange to cut dependency on exchanges.  I note they have been crushed by exchange horrors beyond their control.
It was the first smart conducted.   I like sys coin but I prefer Bitbay. I have both of these.
I am still trying to find someone skilled to explain blacknet since that is apparently a very novel design by the dev who invented pos3 which many projects used for years and still do.

There are many undervalued crypto projects in crypto space, you should do your own research and stop asking people for answers, go on coinmarketcap and start doing your research from #50 to 200 rank on coinmarketcap, I knew few projects and I choose them for my one reasons

1. Apollo Currency
2. Veil Project
3. Wabi
4. Haven Protocol

This is the most complete answer in the entire thread. I think it is time for crypto to really start changing the world and projects that can do this will make money. I think the big winners will be the platforms, ETH2.0 is gonna be hard to take down but there are some alternatives like Graphene by Phore, this project has already provided ETH2.0 with some of the code they will be using and with the blockchain built entirely from scratch it will be made with all the key features necessary in mind.

Swissborg chsb is really a cool project to follow, they are launching small yield service soon that will yield more than the average market returns for its depositors, the premium members will make even more. So I think it is good entry point now as the token is expected to really fly in future.

Rather than the top list of altcoins it is hard to find real usecase based altcoins. Everything has been developed for a purpose, but how effective this has been getting used around isn't known. I find iota to be having real usecase. Most people mentioned the exchange backed altcoins. It is true, but those are effective within the trading platforms and beyond that it is very limited in usage.

One that comes to my mind is Deep Onion. It is a TOR-based anonymous coin, which first came online in 2017. Currently, it is down 99% from the ATH, but the community is still very active and the promoters are working really hard to remove bugs and other software issues. But for some unknown reason, the exchange rates have remained at very low levels, even during the current rally.

Yeah, DeepOnion really is a phenomenon. They have a huge community for their relatively low marketcap. I remember how there was a lot of hype around the coin in the 2017 bullrun. Wouldn't surprise me if this coin got pumped at some point, that is if we are going to see a altseason again.

That's not entirely true, how many coins are you aware of that are not top 100 and are giving investors up to x10 of their investment, just because you don't know them don't mean they don't exist, people nowadays are just too trusting in top 100 coins that they forget to look below, remember that a top 100 coin position is not guaranteed because any coin with high market capitalization will just take the position among the top 100, it is not a yard stick to measure good fundamentals and use case.
