John McAfee Says Privacy Coins are the Future....Name your top 3 Small Caps outside of the top 200. I believe the coins with a low circulating supply and decent volume have potential for huge gains in 2018. Here are my top 3 outside the top 200 in no particular order. Let's hear everyone else's
1) Spectre (XSPEC) "The reasoning is: - It is PoSv3 so its very fast - 60 sec transactions - It has stealth addresses that make your transactions go through separate uncorrelated addresses - It will feature Ring Signatures from v1.5 on, that makes your digital signature of transaction signed by a person of a specific pool - It is first ever coin that has got TOR with OBFUScation4 integrated natively into an opened client. It makes your traffic appear as a normal one to a provider or whoever looks (instead of looking like TOR traffic) - It has got encrypted chat function which is a big deal for privacy (would be more easy to use in v1.4)
GREATEST FEATURES OF THE PROJECT: They have professional cryptographers (15+ years in the field) who made it all possible.
As some people pointed out, they will have in Q12018 best tech, yet the price is laughable compared to other established anon cryptos."
https://globalcoinreport.com/heres-why-now-might-be-a-good-time-to-pick-up-some-spectrecoin-xpsec/Spectre is a privacy coin that is so under the radar that it's laughable. They should probably be competing with Monero at the moment because their privacy tech is amazing. This one will take off when it reaches the top 100 and people understand how good the tech is. A much needed update to the website is coming. Also, XSPEC does stake.
Spectre has a Circulating Supply of around 20 million
They have an update that's in the works that's supposed to make them more private than Monero. Learn more about it on their Slack or reddit.
2) Phore-PHR: This link tells most of what you need to understand about Phore.
https://medium.com/@ainsleyh/phore-may-become-a-very-big-deal-in-cryptos-and-a-libertarians-paradise-4283c7563598 Phore is a masternode staking coin with Zerocoin technology. As I'm writing this Phore has just gone up over 150 percent in the last couple of days. They are listed on Cryptopia and Coinsexchange with plans to hit other exchanges soon. When this happens lookout!!! If you think 150 percent was a big movement then you don't understand Phore. Phore potentially could be a Dash with a Decentralized marketplace mixed in with alot of other things the team has under it's sleaves. The community is also uncomparable. The decentralized marketplace mixed in with Zerocoin tech is huge. Think about it.
Circulating Supply: Around 8 million....It needs to be updated on coinmarketcap.
3) Sumokoin- Monero's relative that most people don't know about. It's on cryptopia and livecoin and it's a great mining coin. They've even created their own miner site that helps mine Sumo, Monero, and Aeon which is another undervalued fork of Monero. This one's just sitting at one dollar and a quarter somehow with a very small circulating supply of only 2.7 million. "What makes Sumokoin different then Monero?
It's younger and therefore, no historic issues (like old linkable txes), too many hardforks etc.
Sumokoin is secured from day one, there would be very, very, very difficult for anyone who try to track any transaction by blockchain analysis.
The untraceability is not optional, not by a "master node", it's built-in.
It has a default minimum ringsize value of 12 increasing anonymity and protecting from blockchain-analysis.
Sumokoin's unlinkability and untraceability guarantees the coin's future."
Honorable mention: HUSH. They have some of the best privacy features available being a fork of ZCASH. The overall team needs to get their act together quickly otherwise they will miss the boat. If they manage to get it together HUSH can one day hit it big.
John mcafee didn't know about zcoin, or may be xvg gave them decent stash for his editorial review/thought/tweet feel free to call it bribe, I wont mind, but mcafee might mind
