Honestly,
Truly Private Coins:
Not forks of Bitcoin: Monero (fair launch) and Bytecoin (under the radar launch)
Truly Anonymous Coins:
Zerocash (uses zero knowledge proofs)
I feel stronger about Zerocash.
Most of the other coins are pure hype, and may soar in value temporarily. I'm hoping Asiacoin goes up short term - mid term, though I'm not betting on it long term.

We weren't born yesterday. NxT might double or triple in price, temporarily, but the whales would be cashing out at the same time and then the capitalization will plummet down to $10 million and then everyone who bought in expecting gains will be left holding the bag. You just can't win when you have greedy whales who simply have no confidence in their own coin and dump each time there's an uptick.

Folks keep saying that, but the 'whales' have have had several opportunities to jump ship now (and many have). Unfortunately, I think people fail to recognize that NXT's distribution just keeps getting better and better. People are greedy, there were huge spikes a couple times in the past and the majority of people that weren't committed jumped ship. The people joining up now are the ones that respect the community, development and progress of the platform. There really isn't much development happening anywhere else, you have Bitcoin and NXT. TLDR, we are running short on whales. They don't last very long with the huge price spikes!

wut Well there's Bitcoin, (a ton of copies and renditions of bitcoin with different names ripped off from the same source code), and NXT. The reason NXT is having so much success now with additional development is because they had the resources to develop a coin from scratch in the first place. There are rumors about other coins being written from scratch(like NEM) but at the moment there aren't any. Seriously WTF is going on in the alt world? When I first came in and started researching all the different coins, it was: copy, copy, copy and I wondered how there could even be such a demand for the same @#%@ code copied over and over with a different name!

Let's see.. there is Ethereum in the works, Bytecoin was coded from scratch, Zerocash (may or may not use bitcoin code) coming soon, etc. Bitcoin and NXT are not the only ones.

So Ethereum is meant to be a turing complete language for bitcoin transactions. It will be new code when it's deployed but isn't it meant as more structure built on top of Bitcoin? Bytecoin? Bytecoin is self described as: The goal of BTE is to make a Bitcoin clone 1:1 copy. Giving people a real option to the rising difficulties of other coins while maintaining all the things that made Bitcoin so successful. on their own page. It is their one sentence summary of their coin!

It looks like it's been out for two years? Only exchanges so far are 3 manual ones on bitcointalk, including the one in my signature. The market cap is ~$10,000,000 at the current price it is being bought for. 80% of all BCN was mined in the dark since launch, likely mostly by the developers. Monero is a fork of Bytecoin made for broader distribution that was publicly launched a little over a week ago. You can browse the manual exchanges for BCN and MRO here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=161.0Both BCN and MRO are only CPU mineable atm.

TLDR, we are running short on whales. They don't last very long with the huge price spikes! Not even remotely true. The NxT whales sit on so much NxT they can kill that coin 1000 times over. I suppose that's true of several coins. We are all so early to the game though that anyone can become a whale at this point. I've gone from 3,000 NXT to 100,000 in a couple of months. It's incredibly cheap anyway, 2 cents a coin. I've traded NXT, bought NXT and even sold some software I developed for NXT. The 'whales' can do what they want. I happy to continue working towards more NXT because I believe in the work being done by the developers. I suppose in that way, I'm becoming one of NXT's 'whales'. I'm more concerned about the product than I am the current price. (or what it might do in the short term) I'd love to put my efforts towards other work as well (would be nice to diversify a bit), but there simply ins't anything else out there. I'll continue investing in NXT any way that I can regardless of any major sell offs that might occur. There might just be enough 'NXTers' like myself to push NXT where it belongs, a top 3 competitor to Bitcoin.

There are way bigger whales and worse distribution in Bitcoin and Litecoin, but they are still here with an huge marketcap. This won´t kill NXT for sure.
