Best Alt coin to invest in 2014

[Althoelzer]

The best coin for me to invest in 2014 is NEM. No other coin has such an enthusiastic community.

I would really start to look into Darkcoin...seems that one of the features Cryptocurrency users value most, is anonymity.

Darkcoin has just a hype like auroracoin had before. It seems to me like a typical pump and dump.
Do you remember when auroracoin hit 25 USD?
Maybe Darkcoin is just something like Aurora 2.0.

Buy StabilityShares this is the next big thing where are coming !

[mladen00]

NEM, DRK, ANC, NXT

and maybe one fair free IPO

+100

100% it is. its not the only crypto doing anonymous tx's. nxt could have done it but theres far more important projects that had to be developed instead so they put nxt privacy(thats what they are calling it, different levels of privicy for different users) to the back of the Que!

yes, and i think that ANC with Zerocoin implementation is next big thing in cryptoworld

[anonerd]

did anyone mention Gridcoin?
(prepare for major release on monday)

I feel MyriadCoin has a great future!

The biggest issue in Cryptocurrency today is anonymity.

The only real anonymous technology is cryptonote.

Monero is the best of all cryptonote coins.

For this reason, Monero is the most important altcoin you should invest.

Experts agree with that.

I know you from the Monero-thread. Now its crystal clear why you're promoting Monero right here.
Well, i can understand you.
For me the best altcoins are NEM, EXO, maybe NXT, too. (without holding EXO or NXT at the moment).

Monero is inferior to Bytecoin (BCN).

Monero is a Fork of BCN, at any point BCN could make changes to their coin that are difficult to replicate as they are the true proffesionals.

I read and disagreed with the analysis for the following reasons:

1. Darkcoin instant mining is NOT true. Darkcoin value at formation was close to zero. ANYONE could have bought available supply in the early days. The fact that the devs bought and held attests to their foresight and self belief.  But, I don't think they hold anywhere near 2 Million coins.  I know one Chinese miner who has 300k darks though.

2. Monero is not tested technology. I just don't know anything about it and it hasn't been around long enough.  However, if darkcoin works, why should I bother with untested tech?

3. Darkcoin is based on the bitcoin protocol, which is tested.  It is not perfect but it is definitely good enough.  

4. Darkcoin is undervalued compared to litecoin, which offers no privacy.

5. If monero tech is any good, why shouldn't I buy bytecoin, upon which it is based?

These are my objections.  Please debunk and question them.

I offer this from the Darkcoin dev on the issue of instant mining: https://darkcointalk.org/threads/the-birth-of-darkcoin.162/

so many altcoins to choose.

Few comments regarding DRK.
Anyone who truly believes that what happened with Darkcoin launch was a "mistake" or "accident" deserves the award for being naive.
It was well planned and executed by developer, who now probably has complete control over this coin.

But just maybe - Its not too bad that dev controls the coin? Lets suppose that he will just gradually sell hes stake and will be a multimillionaire soon. Perhaps he desires even higher price and only sells when he needs some money. Price rise will give him more motivation to work hard and perhaps even take on Litecoin market cap some day.
Lets just hope that he doesnt get bored or stuck in hes development which results with massive dump and clear death for the coin.
Do hope so.

[Sleepyx]

so many shitcoins to choose.

True, theres only really a handful of worthwhile altcoins, top of the pack is darkcoin.
The fact so many people resort to bad attempts at defacing it because they want their shitcoin to rise just shows how much of a threat it is.

[tytanick]

citizencoin,
its skyrocketing now

From someone who has created a coin (rather than purely cloning one), I can tell you it is not easy to work with the protocol.  I can easily imagine a situation where the coin formula was messed up.  In fact, I know dogecoin will eventually run into integer issues.  Also, max coin in the protocol does not actually mean max coin in circulation.  There are many issues to deal with.  I can easily see a new developer getting caught out.  

Also, let's not forget the Devs were actively trying to buy their own coin in the early days. Now, if they actually had 2 million coins from day one, why would they do that?!?  Anyway, I can understand the general scepticism but from what I can tell, the Darkcoin Decentralised Privacy innovations are genuine. Darkcoin deserves to be valued above litecoin, which offers zero privacy.

Darkcoin will be pumped at the moment like Vertcoin or Auroracoin in the past. So you can imagine what will happen to Darkcoin in the nearer future. I guess the value goes down like the value of Auroracoin - from the top 3 down to top 42 (atm) !

If you like loosing money then invest in Darkcoin 

If you are looking for something big with an estimated stable position in the top 10 then invest in NEM or NXT as the two estimated big players in 2014.
You can also have a look on EXO. I guess Exo could be big as well.
