Bitcoin Forum

Hey guys so I'm looking for a new coin to throw about $100-$150 into. It doesn't have to make me super rich but a little bit of a profit would be nice. Anyone have any suggestions?

bitcoin was the best candidate , you just missed the best opportunity to earn more than x2 on it

i think that maybe wasn't thinking of investing on bitcoin, maybe we was trying to tell some actually new coin launched on those months....

What the hell are you talking about?

OP, you can always trade in bitcoins these days with the huge volatility, investing into a new coin is pretty risky, how new do you want the coin to be? You can always check for yourself the altcoin section for new coins and pick one that is not a scam, hint: 99% of them are a scam, although you can make money with scam coins aswell but it's too risky.

1. i was thinking that bitcoin wasn't an option for he
2. not all the 99% of the new coins are scam, if you check bit1 dead coin list on the last 2 months only the 50% of the new coin becamed dead because scam or other reason (virus, etc....)

New coins are very risky to buy. Look for coins that are in top volume in the exchange. That should give you an idea on which coin to buy as usually altcoins with good volume are volatile which will create opportunities to earn bitcoin.

New coins forget those unless they have some AMAZING dev that just coded something that no other dev had done or is looking at doing.
150bucks i would spread over a few outsiders that have been around a while that are supposedly working on some new amazing feature and sound convincing. If they ever pull it off then your 150bucks could become worth a lot more.

Of course it could become 15 bucks or zero bucks.

I would not probably look outside the top 100 coins if you want to take medium risk with the funds.

Also long term perhaps investors will want to collect a few old famous alts that were released early on in the block chain currency calendar.

NXT.
ETH.

Otherwise keep your BTC.




..and new coins?  Do you want to lose it all?  The ANN section needs to be closed.

Off the top of my head... (I'm probably forgetting a few)... mostly in order of most liked to least liked...

I am the most excited about the future of:

Bitcoin, King of cryptocurrencies
Bitshares, Decentralized exchange
Ethereum, Decentralized programming language
Maidsafe/Storjcoin X, Decentralized file storage and web hosting
Nxt, A lot of innovations and features
Ripple/Stellar, Seamlessly combines FIAT and multiple Cryptocurrency transactions
Monero/Boolberry/Aeon, Anonymous transactions
Supernet, The first multi-cryptocurrency collaboration which combines features of Cryptocurrencies
VPNCoin, Decentralized VPNs
GenesysCoin/Spells Of Genesis, Decentralized gaming concepts
GridCoin, The only useful PoW algorithm (useful to society at large rather than securing a block chain)
Burst/MyriadCoin, Innovative PoW consensus algorithms
Dash, Despite the initial distribution they are trying a lot of new and interesting things

I haven't paid too much attention to newer alt coins though, so there are probably some newer ones I'm missing that I would likely suggest if I knew of their existence. The alt coin space is fast developing and it's hard to keep up.

BTC: first to market, will never go away
ETH: interesting new concept, maybe hyped
NXT: fascinating amount of work done and resulted in a lot of features, heavily undervalued
DOGE: not very interesting but it's cheap just like RDD (Ok I am a bagholder)
STORJ: interesting storage concept
QORA: interesting because of new codebase
SUPERNET: just for the idea: get interesting altcoins connected to each other instead of fighting and bashing

NXT: Best tech out there yet
NEM: Very promising, following the PoI concept which is unique so far
QORA: Very cheap, but great tech to.
Bitcoindark: Core currencies of upcoming Supernet and InstantDex (decentralized altcoin exchange)

Pumps and dumps will abound. It is impossible for a neutral player to know when he is on the right side of such movements.
Unless you find a coin which is different and which you really believe in, stick to Bitcoin.

Like you mentioned, 50% of newly launched coins will be dead. So investing it is risky and there is 50% of chance you will lose your money. Yes , you can say there are still 50% of chance to earn money. IMO Why not invest the under valued coins mentioned above. They have all of the underlying innovative features to support. As an investors, if he holds his coins, he wouldn't lose any money.

i would buy UNObotanium, because is an interesting project going on for quite long

Look at the coins with interesting & ongoing development  (most of them are in a slump atm) OR study how new alt coins cycle otherwise you will be parted from your BTC

Well, if you ask 10 people you will probably get 10 different answers of which coin is worth to invest in. You need to do research on your own. There is no holy grale to predict promising coins.

I like Gambitcoin. Buy Gambitcoin. By the way I'm launching a new coin.

Personally I like alts that have a limited total supply. I think a limited supply cap helps build value long term but maybe thats just me.

I would seriously look at Digicube it hasn't even started to reach its full potential. That's where my moneys at.

Invest in Solarcoin while its cheap. A couple of years from now and your 150 $ will turn into 150 000 $ or even more. Thank me later  ;)

Look very closely at this link and decide for yourself http://aboutshadow.com/ It's seriously one of the most amazing projects since BTC and going for a user base BTC can not fill if it wants to become mainstream, 99% of other coins no matter how innovative will fail because their innovations can be rolled back into BTC this is not one of those coins, BTC can not do what SDC is doing and become mainstream at the same time, so you have a huge potential for growth.

If you are looking to profit from your investment I suggest you take a look at our project Rise Only Market https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1240717.0 Our initial crowdsale has just begun and as you can see the price offered will certainly guarantee ROI + uncapped profit.   

I would suggest Ether. It's still under 1$ and devcon is starting next week.

Look at altcoins ANN section. You will see all of the new coins! Just be cautious! There are a lot of scam coins!

And let's add that in some cases instead of finding a simple scam coin you could find even a virus inside the wallet so not only somebody could only lose the money they wanted to invest but all the money plus personal data that could be used in some black market

Doge coin is now on the run,ethereum is a strong coin so is dash but if you want more detailed analysis coinmarketcap and yobit is the best place to be,of course bitcoin should be your priority they are on the rebound and  will a big rise in value this year,try valorbit also a newly launch coin you can get a rewards from their premine,just linked it to your social account..

And so how do you tell what is scam and what is genuine (but flawed) and what may succeed?  Someone like me has no experience and can very easily be parted from hard-earned but I do like the idea of supporting a new coin where the coin is genuine.

NXT - asset exchange
BTCD - supernet tech
Bitcoin - the one and only
WARP-vpn and sync coming soon

Better watch out for IOTA when it hit all major cryptocurrrency exchanges.

Jeez...a tip that worked. ETH now (http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/) $2.46.

I think Gulden (NLG) is the best cryptocurrencie. Great Devs, good community and a little bit undervaluated. so a good opportunity.

You need to divide your risk and buy 9-10 altcoin with that money. Altcoin market is so unstable to invest to one altcoin...

Maybe you can try to trade...
