Back again, looking for some coins that may have slipped my radar over the last year. List your top 5 altcoins (WITH REASONS WHY)

Please make your reasons relate to the actual coding of the coin, unique features, active developers, amazing community etc.




Check out the version of this thread I posted in 2014 to see how things have changed in the last 1-2 years.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=439341.0

This thread is centred more around the codebase +developers + people behind the coin. For coin investment chat keep your thoughts to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=727004.0

remember back when you were young, that first girl in your class who developed the 'assets' of  womanhood  ... NXT is like that girl ... most other coins are immature by comparison. monero is best anon, but NXT anon MS coins are coming soon anyway

yup, NXT for sure. Why don't you download the wallet and see for yourself. No description here could describe any better.

hands down it's NXT. other coin that might be promising would be ethereum, but its vapor ware until an actual release. the only thing i see they might have over nxt is the marketing and vc backing. but technology, nxt is in the lead by a big margin.

here's some screen shots of the nxt wallet in action...

C'mon, OP asked for some reasoning behind your choices people.

1) BitShares - Delegated proof of stake consensus enables decentralized governance via stakeholder voting for roles (witness, delegate, worker). BitShares is the first distributed ledger network to pay the devs that wrote it. Quickest block intervals (currently 10 seconds, soon to be 2), first platform to implement collateralized stablecoins without counterparty risk, on-chain decentralized exchange. The "industrial" blockchain. Engaged community and visionary dev teams (core devs in Blacksburg, bitsapphire in Kosovo, DACPLAY in China).

2) Bitcoin - tried and true, a crowd favorite. Also I like being able to spend cryptocurrency so although I don't hold onto very much BTC I do convert to it on the fly using gateways like metaexchange.info, shapeshift.io, and blocktrades.us.

3) Ethereum - cool project, good vision, looking forward to seeing what it can do when it stabilizes.

Honorary mentions: I've heard Qora is doing some cool stuff with AT. I also would like to learn more about the state of anon coins like dash & monero.
