Title: cloak,dark,xc,cinni,xmr,bbr.... if there could be only one?
Post by: cryptohunter on July 03, 2014, 04:31:46 PM
These seem the leaders in the race for anon currency.

If you could invest in only one at this point at it's current price which would you go for. If you can not limit yourself to only one pick the top 3 and say why.
Do you think one of them has a clearly better developer behind it that the others, or do all have some merit?

If you want to go on pure developer skill its undoubtedly bbr. If you want to go on strength of community I'd go with xmr. Drk has way too much of a premine to take seriously and cinni has essentially 0 innovation. Which is why I own both bbr and xmr.

Yes, alexgr said bbr dev has some real coding skills. How about XC? without being a coder it is sometimes hard to tell which devs are as good as the hype behind them. This time around i want to get with coins that have people at the helm that can do  and will do what they say.

as a fan of second gen currencies, Im looking forward to NTX which claims to incorporate anonymity through concept of recasting.  :o

If I could only invest in one it would be XMR. Then I would sell when it peaks after the windows wallet comes out.

If Cinni is still cheap at that point, I would buy into Cinni.

Beyond that well, new stuff. My guess is DACs are the new thing.

Only CN coins are relevant with anonymity.

Not in months and closed sourced and with masternodes that can be hacked/owned by bad apples and also need payment. But right now, totally open sourced and with no masternodes or maximum payment.

I support Monero but i also own Boolberry.

P.S. Even if those two coins wont succeed again the true anonymous coin will be a cryptonote one.

Do you realize that this was the NYAN coin that had 10% premine? Do you know if they eliminated the premine? They don't even mention it on the ANN page.

You say that Cinni has no innovation? It has encrypted messaging/chat as well as invoicing. They are working on wallet based encrypted sending using the already built framework from the messaging. Which other coin allows you to send invoices wallet to wallet?

The conversion of NXT to anon will be very interesting

XMR is a better option.

Wow, thought XC may get more votes.... then again not being a coder i have no real idea which of these will shine above the others.

Cloak seems to be up again today.
