Best Altcoin to invest in for 2016 and WHY

[Odien]

Primecoin is a great coin to hold for a while.

I think 2016 will be the year of bitcoin and maybe just a few of the other legit projects will survive. 

Very possibly. Late 2015 saw a clear trend (with a few exceptions) of alts losing value against Bitcoin. It will be interesting to see if 2016 continues that trend (which would be dire for the concept of alts) or if there will be some reversal.

Well I hope that is the case.  I dont see any hope in the near future for coins that are trying to compete with bitcoin directly, they will have to do something bitcoin cant do, to survive imo.  Also I think this crypto scene will never be taken seriously by the mainstream if 90% of the projects are scams or p&ds so it would be great if this area was cleaned up a bit.     

Agree with that. Think there are some alts who can do something BTC can't do. Also think that because of all the scams or other things It will take more time before people notice and trust those coins.
If the team & community allows the coin to use that time for growing than it will get a great future.

Yeah I see a great future for crypto once we get to 90% legit projects and only 10% scams but we have a long way to go.

Here are my best picks: BURST, PND, NXT, LTC and maybe DOGE

I think they are all undervalued.

NXT - in 2016 many new, useful and demanded functions are expected (in addition to that already is now the unique)
Iota - the interesting decision for IOT (potentially huge demand)

I have already written four books on individual cryptocurrencies.  On Amazon, first year history books on Peercoin, Reddcoin, DigiByte and Dogecoin exist.  Please private message me if you would like to see a book written about another cryptocurrency.

Monero.  
  
And if you have any money left over, buy more Monero. 
 
It's the biggest thing since the original bitcoin.

I agree with you I am mining on minergate and this is always been picked by their smart feature as the best coin to mine this is could be their year right now have been following it on some trading sites and they sure holds a promise

CryptoBullion is developing like a train, robust, consistent since 2013 and low inflation (2%). The big pile of coins have high inflation and their prices will continue to drop over time while CBX is a true investment that can stay strong in price and prepare for higher grounds.

As a small time miner and trader, I'm a big fan of JoinCoin. Its got a really neat multi-algo mining setup (just set algo in joincoin.conf) which allows for a very fair mining distribution IMHO. It also utilizes two algo's that are currently CPU-only for those who dont own mining equipment or gpus, but still want the fun of mining.

I think that BBQCoin will make a comeback once they convince an actual BBQ chain to accept it as currency!

[Spoetnik]

Hmm this topic sounds familiar i wonder why hmmmm

[Cass LeChat]

LECHAT on Counterparty. Because sex sells. XD

[nzminer]

Sounds like IOTA will be the next big thing.

NEM will be a good investment too.

[hack_]

DASH and BitCredit.

Absolutely!  No doubt about it.  BBQCoin is the future!

Just imagine... if a BBQ restaurant chain started accepting BBQCoin they could replace their charcoal grills with ASIC-heated grills to secure their payments.  Think of the amount of wasted energy saved by cooking all that pork instead of just dispersing it into the atmosphere.  It's delicious and eco-friendly!

What about truckcoin, once all the trucks start accepting it then surely it will moon.  Where do I send my money?

[BitcoinNational]

[asdf55]

In 2016 it will be some altcoin pump and dump you will get in and get out with profit$$$, for some it will be the worst coin to invest in 2016  so not created yet
