This is exactly the question I have been trying to research. Ultimately I'm going to shotgun investments into multiple coins b/c it's impossible to truly predict but here are my best candidates for now:

1 - NEO - Ethereum of China.  I like the technical underpinnings and leadership position in the Asian market. Most important is their ability to allow smart contracts in C#, Java, etc. which is way easier to use than Solidity (Etehereum language)imo.  {Note - I used to work at Microsoft}
2 - LTC - best infrastructure for fast payments and low fees of the current top coins.  If Facebook actually uses for payments (current rumour...not fact), then will do well.
3 - COTI - This will ICO in 1Q 2018.  They are blending best of blockchain but also things present in current payments (trust ratings) and if they gain traction with merchants could do well as they blend the best of both.
4 - OMG - Another coin focused on payments for the Asian market.  Good team and product focus.
5 - WGR - Wagerr.  I invested in this at it's ICO...its been kind of quiet as they build out but their product in 2017, but will be live in 1Q 2018 and I really like their focus on sports betting and believe they can dominate it with resulting profits.

Look forward to seeing other peoples predictions and reasons behind their picks to help us make better investments overall.

If we are talking about the most popular coins, then I assume nothing will change. I really believe in Ripple and I think 2018 will be years of this coin.

[Gameflip ICO]

I think there would be Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, Nem and Dash.

[Zentor]

I think it could be eos, cardano, smartholdem, digibyte and maybe icx? Well eos and icx would be competiting 

[EverMashin]

I believe that the most profitable coins in 2018 will be Xem and Trust. Also very promising ico Hdac and Crypterium. I also have an investment portfolio LTC, Dash, ETH, ETC.

Well if its about my personal Opinion that i have researched in very deeply about this topic because i had to find where can i make my best investments so at last i found the following
1: DEEPONION ( great features of privacy and a strong community behind )
2: XVG  verge coin ( affordable to purchase in a good amount and it has nearly increased by more than 1k% in a month )
3: Neo ( it has great features as well as favourable in asian markets)
4: RIPPLE ( different work style such as affiliation with banks )
5: Ethereum ( great market cap)

In your opinion, What will be the top 5 alt coins to shine in 2018?

I think it will be such coins:
Electroneum
Aion
0x
Syscoin
And Stratis Top 10

[Fkleppe]

Personally i'm hoping for these 5:

1. NEM
2. XRB
3. BAT
4. KMD
5.TRX

Just a minor note re: Stratis - I'm not seeing any real development in terms of C# adoption:

Example for their C# client & Visual Studio:
Version   Downloads   Last updated
0.0.2-alpha (current version)   111   9 months ago

Last update 9 months ago and 111 downloads total (and I'm one of them so it's 110 really).
Going to need a lot more activity to really support where the price is currently since their whole claim to fame is C# usage...my opinion at least.

Anyway, don't want to get sidetracked so lets get back to predictions but just wanted to throw this out there for Stratis predictions.  NEO has C# and a lot more activity as best I can tell.

XMR, OMG, XVG, SC,IOTA

There are many good buying opportunities. I'm following McAfee,(McAfee twitter):

Digibyte (DGB). Using a Blockchain which is 40 times faster than Bitcoin and having one of the most decentralized mining systems in the world - based on 5 different synergistic algorithms. DGB adherents call the coin "The Sleeping Giant". https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/944929837671690241

Reddcoin (RDD) - a sleeper - most widely used social network coin in the world - flying under the radar since 2014. Working with every Social Media platform, it is the only currency that many children under the age of 10 have ever known.  https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/944555048880746497

BURST -- First truly Green coin and most overlooked coin. Uses 400 times less power than Bitcoin. Super secure and private. Includes smart contracts, encrypted messaging, decentralized wallet, libertine blockchain. Most undervalued coin. https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/944206175100424193

Electroneum: https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/943860891119964160

McAfee the king of pumps and dumps

[Swinging Phallus]

DCR because it has a multibillion dollar community and application
LEND because it rivals SALT and it's project is ahead of schedule
LRC team is friends with NEO, awesome use case.
LISK Rebranding in feb so we might see a neo 2.0, SDK launch really soon.
Bytom massive use case...AI powered by mining.
