Weird that DarkCoin isn't in there, I would go with that.

Using the given list, I'll give three targets based on my "opinions."

Short-term (around 3 months): VTC. It has dropped significantly from the first sell-off spike. But I think with upcoming developments in the realm of ASICs, VTC will likely garner more attention and another likely spike.

Medium-term (around 6 months): LTC. If you go with some estimates, ASICs could be at the end of production sometime around the end of Q2 and start being used around the beginning of Q3. This will likely be followed by a spike in LTC price just like how BTC spiked after the first releases of SHA-256 ASICs.

Long-term (around a year): BTC. Come on, it's the nature of the beast.

Hehe. Have fun!

VERTCOIN

# No premine
# Even coin distribution
# No super bag holders (like bitcoin/litecoin/ DOGE/Quark), Although there is some 1 buying up a lot of coins right now.
See http://bitinfocharts.com/
# Unique feature : ASIC proof When all the (LTC) asics hit the market all GPU people will jump to vertcoin.
# nice community at http://www.reddit.com/r/vertcoin/

Vertcoin is still under the radar but will grow a lot this year.
Only distortion is the recent  price spike. A growth of 3000% within a week is a
bit too much for such a small and young (1 month) coin,  so there is a natural decline in price.
It will get far more valuable. so it is worth investing into it.

This post made me dislike Vertcoin even more. vertcoins Reddit on the right "vertans mine and hold", when you want to submit a topic on the top it says again "mine and hold!", now thats some bag holding encouragement isn't it? You need to learn how to promoot your coin, you won't get far by falsely criticising top coins.

Thou should not be emotionally attached if you want to invest.
Hold as in: keep your coins and not dumping them all at once on the market. Like many of the pump and dump coins

I would have to say Doge, Quark, or possibly NXT ...

vertcoin seems overrated, lots of other 'ASIC-proof' coins

Like? Names of the coins: absolute and relative numbers please and compare it with the non Asic proof coins
Please do not respond with non factual gibberish.

Best investment would have to be Bitcoin and litecoin with namecoin close to litecoin.

I wasn't really like typing it all so just copied it, don't know about frozen and others but this goes for quark

An advantage of Quark might be, in this case it was compared with darkcoin, Darkcoin's block generation time is 2.5minutes (150seconds), while Quark is 30 seconds. Which means that Quarks algorithm with an element of randomness (unpredictability) will have to be cracked in 30 seconds to create a double-spend fork, while for Darkcoin this window of opportunity for the attacker is 5 timeslonger: 150 seconds with no element of randomness.

Quark is using 9 rounds of hashing: while using 6 rounds from Blake, Blue Midnight Wish, Grøstl, JH, Keccak and Skein it adds 3 more rounds of hashing randomly: so the computer doesn't know whether it will be Keccak or Grøstl or Blake. And that's one of the uniqiue beauties of Quark. Unfortunately, Darkcoin or Qubitcoin don't do that: the computer remains certain about which hashing function will be used. If you take all these factors into account, Quark is still the most secure - it's not only about the number of hashing functions."

Hi there! I've seen you're talking about all these nice coins and i would like to inform you all that KimoCoin will be launched too!!

It's quite different from your coin so check it out the official thread, could be good for the ones who likes Pow/pos hybrid with smooth scrypt jane & adaptive n-factor!

KimoCoin Official Thread---> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=524216.msg5812477#msg5812477

Good luck!
