Most Promising Altcoins for 2014

[Del137]

MRC coin as most fair mining for a year

Peercoin is awesome.

It doesn't need to be used for goods and services because it's not designed for that. Peercoin is being designed as a store of value. You can gain interest on it if you mint proof of stake.

If crypto-currency were to become more mainstream, or even ubiquitous, people will need an equivalent to a savings account that gains interest.

When peercoin is spent, this balances out the inflation a little bit because that transaction fee is destroyed, if spending becomes too slow, more inflation occurs for PoS minting, devaluing everyones a little bit, encouraging more to be spent.

My vote goes to Peercoin.

Is your butt sore? Can't handle the truth? Quarks community for a coin with a $900 daily maintenance cost and a $20million market cap is great. Read it again

Could you please explain? What truth? Where is the Quark community? Link would be enough... Or try to explain it with words/constructive sentences. I believe you learned that in school last year.

Shwack D's list of most promising altcoins for 2014:


1.) Bitcoin (duh)
2.) Worldcoin (duh)
3.) Potcoin (Colorado and Washington ftw)
4.) Mincoin (mcxnow is back!)

Will be interesting to see the value of DOGE in April, when all the coins will be mined (the coin is already 38% mined after only a few months...).

You have to ask yourself why, if the most successful and second most successful crypto coins both have long term mining schedules, almost every single altcoin has a very short mining schedule. I doubt it is because they are trying to be successful. To do that you take what already works and build on it.

+1

For the currency to actually function as a currency you need the widest adoption possible. A long mining cycle does this. It also secures the network for a long time so that by the time the coin production tapers down to almost nothing there will be enough fees to pay the miner s to keep mining.

A 6 month cycle leaves almost no time for adoption. In quarks case it was even worse because it flew under the radar for so long by the time the price surged it had been almost mined out. Benefiting a few.

Despite Quarks unique hashing algorithms if some other very profitable to mine CPU coins come out and hashing shifts away, it could leave Quark more susceptible to a 51% attack.

I already gave my support for Worldcoin but I am also watching Maxcoin and Zerocoin with interest both are pretty unique.

Separated by borders, United by technology

[djarot]

Worldcoin & Potcoin will increase in value dramaticly in the next few months.

[Deslock Darkstar]

Coins to "come out of nowhere" in 2014 (Not necessarily in order)...

1. Dogecoin
2. Teslacoin
3. Mooncoin seems to have some interest stirring.
4. Potcoin


Established coins which will gain or maintain status in 2014...

1. Bitcoin, obviously, though it's not an alt-coin... it's THE coin.
2. Litecoin
3. Anoncoin - Expect Us.
4. Looking into Worldcoin on a friend's recommendation, so I'll put that on this list too.

[NEMcoin]

NEM coin definitely ;-)

[hilariousandco]

This should be changed to Most Promising Altcoins for This Month there's so many of them now. I'm guessing the Keisercoin is gonna be pretty 'big' for Feburary.

[miner002013]

Everyone is making assumptions... Lets see whose prediction turns out to be correct in the near future.. Until then lo and behold..

[Cryptojesus]

That worldcoin tho.

[damx]

Gridcoin
With the scrypt-sleep coming soon, hashrate and power will not be waste only on securing the network, but also to contribute to research.  Also was added to the first exchange this week, momentum is building for this coin.

Also Maxcoin may be interresting. 

[mantaxer]

Feathercoin

[PinkPotatos]

Franko has been doing killer lately.

[Fastpow]

I'd say CGB and MRC

[traderman]

Let me know of any other coin that has a mining module like Gridcoin has? This is what true innovation and development is all about.






Boinc Processing for Team Gridcoin! This Graph will only keep going up and up!!!
