Market is tanking at the moment, but during a bear market it's the best time to see which projects are the real gems, mainly by observing the development activity.

On this point, I'd think Spectrecoin is highly promising and poised for strong recovery, for the team is going strong on development under the rekindled project leadership of Mandica (the project founder), transparent and timely updates (1 main in-depth update + weekly/bi-weekly mini updates), active and friendly community on Discord.

Check it out if you have yet to buy into a privacy coin; $XSPEC is a POS privacy-oriented coin with an ambitious development roadmap lined up; I'm particularly looking forward to the stealth staking feature that allows ~5% staking reward.

XSPEC would be something you might be interested to check out.

For all the features in place, it's market cap is small in comparison with other privacy coins.

I like that Spectrecoin is POS so it doesn't take much energy nor require a complex rig to stake your coins.

Best of all, the project leader Mandica is back in charge and she's pushing all the right buttons and moving the project forward together with the team really well, with increased transparency the community can easily see the project's progress: extremely helpful to have visibility of team's effort when you put money and belief into a project  

My top 3 are:

• RVN (security/asset layer incoming)
• XSPEC (POS privacy, project founder back in driver's seat and keeping development work into overdrive)
• NKN (network protocol, dev delivering on schedule or even ahead at times)

DYOR, not financial advice!

I'm currently mining RVN; nursing a crush on Bruce Fenton

Other than that, I'm bullish on MFT (dapp platform) , XSPEC (privacy-centric POS) & NKN (network protocol).

I'm following these 3 closely:

$XSPEC Spectrecoin: POS, privacy-centric coin with a scrappy team of devs punching above their weight-class.

$RVN Ravencoin: GPU/CPU ASIC-resistant mining form of Bitcoin, no pre-mining, looking forward to their main net & asset player

$MFT: love their team and the ideologies of what blockchain represents: decentralised freedom
