Need to please add earthcoin. The online wallet was initially developed by a scammer. Lost 7620.46 coins before the desktop wallet was released, and I know for a fact I wasn't the only one, check the forums.  We cannot possibly support and grow a coin knowing there is a scammer that would get super rich due to the Devs carelessness on launch.

QRK will be forked soon.

[saamxx]

[allwelder]

[LittleD]

wow QRK - Quarkcoin @ 90 (9.7%) ;/ why?

[alrose]

[msin]

Why don't you list coins that were actually a scam, like Visacoin?

It's kind of funny that some of the coins that got rated the highest as most likely to grow in 2014 similarly got rated highest as most likely to be shit or a scam.

I voted for NXT coins though, because the fine print on its exchange reads something like "All bitcoins placed into the exchange belong to the exchange.", and the owner of the exchange, and the main NXT website, also owns another domain with the word "Ponzi" in it for some reason.

It's an interesting concept but it needs to be steered clear of at all costs with the people running it.

You voted for a coin because of a 3rd party exchange website verbiage?  Interesting.  The main Nxt website is NxtCrypto.org, it's run by the community.  The currency has zero affiliation with Dgex, he is just the first person to start an exchange, that's all.  Tell you what, open a Nxt account, PM me your account #, and I'll send you 100 Nxt so you can at least check it out.

I agree.. people don't do their research. DGEX was one of the first exchanges to support FRC when no exchanges wanted to touch demurrage.

519 hypocrites overall right now.

Actually there r only ~10 real people behind most of them.

NXT got my vote as well. They closed their investment 6 weeks early without advance notice to avoid dilution of existing investment, so the early investors could own a much larger stake, and then start selling a week later at a 4762% markup.

I see they are #2 and should be #1 on the list.

Yes, there would always be angry people, but NXT would be able to make the claim that everyone who knew about it and made the stated deadline was able to invest.

Do you deny that the pre-sale was closed early without advance notice to prevent dilution of existing investment?

unbelievable Ripple is not on this list and MegaGoin

Should have listed in alphabetic order, but hands down the scam coins have to have these attributes:

1. Not Bitcoin
2. No mining
3. PreMined

My top four:

1. Ripple
2. NXT - love the differentiation but man what a crap product and no mining of coins is a deal killer.  
3. QRK - come on, how is this coin even popular
4. Mega - avoid shiny things that steal their luster from others
