What is your favorite altcoin project(s) and why?

[Coinscouting]

Please give specific reasoning as to why it is your favorite project, and how it differentiates from other alts.


My favorite project right now is Funfair. A revolutionary Blockchain platform that enables anybody to create an online casino. The first thing that caught my eye about this project was the All Star team. Jez San, the founder of Funfair, is one of the original developers of Star Fox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Fox_(video_game)) and founder of PKR.com (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKR.com). The team consists of 30+ dedicated professionals.

The platform uses Fate Channels to ensure a fair user experience, "We use it to generate realtime random numbers as a collaboration between two parties (the player, and the fate channel service).".

My favourite project right now is Crowdholding: https://www.crowdholding.com/ It is a co-creation platform that connects the crowd with the startups. You sign up very easily in the platform and comment on the projects. The best comments get rewarded. Nice way to get extra income and participate in the creation process!

I don't have such things as favorite as I look for pros and cons in all of them.
Ethereum was a bright project but increase in competition and division in community has weakened it.
Monero is still the favorite among anonymous coins and I believe it would rise further.

I keep an eye on financial projects because crypto banks/FinTech startups will help to spread the word about cryptos to the masses.
For example CAG and Bankera, there are a couple FinTech ICOs on the way. I hope they will deliver what they promise.

anything with heavy encryption!  going to come in very handy when the law start trying to crack down on our culture!!!

I have gone through white papers of few altcoins. Naming, Trippki, VLB, and few other altcoins. VLB focuses on Vehicle lifecycle starting from car manufectures to the owner. Focus is to reduce maintance charge of the car. Their team is so strong combining multi level experienced. I am sure they will drive towards success. Trippki is focused on bulding relationship between customers and hotels leaving out the 3rd party entry in between them. This benefits customers to avail hotels with less cost and offers and hotels get more customers. I had to come across an altcoin focussed on distributing the profits to the orphanages. Really admire this.

I am not investing in any upcoming ICOs this month but have invested in few interesting one before.

Bitdice (CSNO) : Got good return but still holding them tightly because it can get big, casino bankroll with proven track record of high payout for investors.
ETC : I am quite bullish in this because I believe this is quite undervalued right now.
LISK : Smart contract platform with easy to code javascript, it can get big.
SIA : decentralized storage, one of the promising project.

bitbay - one of the most advanced cryptos and has one of the most wide ranging use cases and is still cheap

blocknet - decentralised exchange - one of the oldest and most advanced.

byteball - research it.

pivX - nicely distributed powerful anon coin and governance/funding.

solid projects.

1. WAVES : The most powerful platform to launch tokens without any technical knowledge. Comes with DEX which provides instant liquidity to tokens. One of my favorite crypto project.

2. QTUM : I am following this project since its inception. If you wanna see perfect blend of best features from Bitcoin and from Ethereum, with some extra addons, QTUM is wise choice. It is like Bitcoin-Ethereum Sundae with extra toppings.

Unikoin Gold! For, what I believe is the best reason. I WOULD USE THIEIR PRODUCT! People seem to always forget about this aspect. They never ask themselves, would I use this? Does this add value to what I do. That's the only sure thing. If you like it, it's a truth. If you think another person or group of people like it, it's just speculation.

Komdo is interesting because of the delay proof of work.
It uses 60 verified nodes to gather data from the Bitcoin blockchain to use in their own blocks.
This adds extra protection for attacks on the Komodo blockchain as the only way of attacking would be reversing the Bitcoin blockchain.

[abvhiael]

for me i prefer Dovu ico though the coin hasnt gain yet a respectful price but there is something about the team they are extremely reliable and they are really working to to develop the this new born token they even have serious interaction with the tokens followers.

[SerenW]

My favorite one is IOTA, it is Internet of Things, Machine to Machine technology. And I've seen no any solid competitor of this project.

For long term growth you want a token that gives you network rewards.  As the company grows, you are apart of it and get rewarded.

A coin with upside is Centra.  As more people use their card, the more network rewards every token holder will get because the network reward is a % of what users spend.

Price is low right now since wallet and cards were delayed but on schedule to release/ship in the next couple of months.  KYC process to unlock wallet is occurring now.

US is the most regulated place and hardest to ship cards to and Centra has received money transmitter license in 31 states and working on the rest.  Shows centra will be able to ship to US where many other debit cards cannot.  Will truly be a worldwide card.

Centra has become a Executive member of Chamber of Digital Commerce after US license.  Its a small circle including microsoft, IBM, Bittrix, Overstock, etc.  And the group works closely with policymakers and regulatory agencies for blockchain.

Big roadmap plans, not just debit cards
- Debit cards
- Centra Exchange  (exchange like bittrix, but will allow to switch between centralized or decentralized exchange)
- Centra Marketplace   (like amazon/ebay but a crypto currency marketplace)
- Centra Blockchain
CTR token will be used on all platforms

Many people point to the Fud that is out there currently.  Much of the fud is not true and are personal attacks on the founder not on the company itself.  But Fud still harmful for a company in its beginning stages, so the board has decided to restructuring itself and bringing in more people with expertise in the field, like Chase and Allan Shutt, etc.  And they are currently interviewing blockchain and finacial experts now to become the new CEO.

STRATIS is the only project that is very pleasing to me, I think that in a few years it will leave ETH behind itself, and people who have managed to buy it will become very rich, already the main patience and faith here.

I love these responses! Super diversified projects with amazing innovation. Anybody reading through these comments can learn something.

Currently Oyster and Dcorp.

If they pan out.  Both of them.   Great ideas but we have no idea of the devs intentions.  Both are currently undervalued because of this.

Oyster wants to tap into the unused resources of the masses to not only support decentralized storage but monetize website visits without ads.  They have one day left for their ICO.

As for Dcorp - any project that moves us towards democratically ran autonomous corporations is neat. They are not there yet but a move in the right direction.

Looking for another good project.  The technology has to be real neat.

Ah, another chance for everyone to shill their bags!

I mostly stick to Bitcoin, but a couple projects have caught my eye, and they haven't even launched yet.

The much-hyped Mimblewimble is very interesting from a privacy perspective, and it looks like it won't be launched on Bitcoin. The developers are planning to launch it next year.

Bram Cohen (BitTorrent) is launching a new blockchain called the Chia Network, which will incorporate a totally different security model based partly on a method called "proof-of-time." It will apparently be able to leverage computing storage space (which is incredibly abundant) for security, so I'm very curious to see how it pans out. Papers are forthcoming; this is early in the going.

at the moment it would be cybermiles. I see a really promising future ahead as they are decentralizing marketplaces with their token. The article to sum up how it's different would be: https://medium.com/@mohammadmuneeb/cybermiles-connecting-the-marketplaces-of-real-and-virtual-world-8900068e2e60

I recommend reading their whitepaper because there are so many features they have: https://cm.5miles.com/file/project/Project%20white%20paper_en-US.pdf

Up would go eg WavePay. The distribution is designed so that the price from the beginning sets new levels.
