5 coins you will ask your bestfriend to invest

[raymarius]

Friends which 5 altcoins would you ask your best-friend to invest in and why. Please don't pimp the coin you hold, it would be too obvious and will only make this thread useless, no one will be fooled  . If we all share our thoughts honestly with each other we can all benefit together and isn't the crypto revolution  about sharing    , so please be genuine. Here is my amateurish top five pick

1) Litecoin : The real father of all altcoin without it there will be no dogecoin, aurora and a hundred others. Has a huge market cap, strong brand and is widely accepted.

2) PEERCOIN : Great DEV, innovative, accepted by all exchanges and does not seem too volatile.

3) NXT : Innovative, no mining( which I think is good) and core community seem very focused

4) Emunie : They are trying to create a stable currency by only creating emu to match the demand. If they succeed in stabilizing price emunie could be huge. I like the simple name address too

5) NEM : Initially thought was a clone of NXT but the devs decided to make a totally new coin with a concept called POI , great IPO with 3000 plus investors which created a very strong community and buzz around this project.

sorry doge, aurora, primecoin but I had room for only five

Assuming my best friend has no idea what alternate currencies are, since you're asking him to invest in them, I'd tell him to keep the BTC and stay away from the dangerous game that we play when we trade in anything that isn't the big ole B itself.

Assuming he does know, I'd leave him to his own investments. Nothing like losing friends over a slight loss even in the short term.

Why VERT ?

[d2dtk]

1. Lite
2. Zeta coin
3. Quark
4. to be determined lol
5. Doge

The way I see zeta rebounding once certain projects are completed is why it's at number 2. It's going to be a very useful and practical currency.

Over at www.NoBS.is "Zetacoin Builders Association District 305 " they're working on a real use Android Wallet, ATM's, and a few other innovative projects.

I would only recommand bitcoin and peercoin and not more then they can afford to loose.

[Jeezy911]

Btc, doge, dark, quark, ether

[bl0ckchain]

Bitcoin (BTC), Goldcoin (GLD), and Litecoin (LTC)

^^^ In 2 years time, those will be the top three.

He could get new coins mining them and then hope one of them will increase in value

I asked which altcoins I should buy here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=511246.0 There has been 60answers, about 57 are different....

I doubt on Vert to be honest. I think we already have some of Scrypt coins doing well. Litecoin/Doge, Vert could be replace by Zero.

I agree. It's pretty much like gambling. You have to know the odds are not always in your favor and when to give up.

Newb question, is Gold Coin actually pegged to the price of Gold? Or is it just a name.

How would that be possible? it's just another dumbass litecoin copy shitcoin with a terrible price chart. It was worth about 10x more in Dec than it is now -great looking coin for the future eh?

It depends on the length of investment, risk appetite and end goal
