This includes IPO's (just losing 1.8 LTC from edgecoin doesn't scare me) Trying to think of what coins to buy in. Don't what BS crap that come from bagholders. If you list a coin, PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY.

Well just avoid the ones cloned directly from Litecoin. That should narrow your choices down dramatically and then go from there.

Yeah I did hope that I could actually get info. Guess be better off asking people like you. What do you think of? - vertcoin
- darkcoin
- litecoin
- pawncoin
- Hirocoin

This. Picking crypto is basically like picking stock, except there's a lot less information to go by. I view alts as gambling rather than investments and I recommend you do the same. Only put up what you can lose (and I mean lose 100% of it) and enjoy the ride. - vertcoin
- darkcoin
- litecoin
- pawncoin
- Hirocoin
I missed the boat on VTC when it had the brand new algorithm or whatever it was so I haven't been following it, but their devs seem talented so maybe worth checking out. LTC is always a good bet. It has the history other coins don't. I wouldn't trade these, I just have a few I'm holding for a rainy day. I don't like pawncoin. Getting cash in hand is the purpose of pawn shops. Until crypto closes in on being as widely accepted as fiat, pawncoin isn't doing much for anyone. The others I don't know enough about to have an educated opinion.

Look, if you just wanna gamble on fluctuations then whatever, but realize that it's about as bad as going to the local casino. If you want something with solid fundamentals then there are maybe... two? four? to choose from. And I have yet to find one that does anything important better than bitcoin does.

This is good advice, everyone will always pump their latest altcoin. If you want to play that game you have to mine a new coin and dump it as soon as it hits an exchange. Most coins go almost straight down after getting listed. I'd look for two things, first some real innovation over Bitcoin in the protocol of the coin itself. Second, some infrastructure around the coin so it can actually be used. Doge started as a joke, so it was a no for the first criteria but it built a community pretty quick. It will be interesting to see if its stunts can overcome its core problem of Too Many Coins (TM).

2 percent of all coins mined goes directly to a wallet controlled by the non-profit organiazation, 'the einsteinium foundation'. This coins are to be donated to a project furthering science. Every month the community sends in suggestion on which project they would like to fund. The foundation chooses some and then the community votes upon it. Each donation (and mining period) is split into 'epochs' which last aproximately a month. Last and first donation went to a researcher at yale. So barely any other coins are run by NPOs and as transparent as EMC2. Also emc2 is, i think, the only coin which kind of has that 'tax' built into the code to gather the 2 percent of mined coins. It also has a neat 'wormhole' feature in which once an epoch, the block reward, is increased for a period of time. It has been steady at around 600 sat for a little bit now. Basically, imagine if it reaches 1 cent, and the donations get into the 10,000 dollar range. then maybe a little publicity, and then it happens to get to 10 cents. Once donations start getting around 50,000 or so dollar publicity should seriously increase. Which should cause a lot of people to want in. I'm in it for long term. It is not going to go up like BC, WC, or anything that goes up 10 times in one day. But it def is worth more then 600 sat... http://einsteinium.org/

Thus it is less attractive to miners, they will choose something else and the network strength will suffer for it. How is it a better store of value, currency, or means of value transfer than bitcoin to compensate for this weakness?

Fundamentals. What does it do, what do the differences from bitcoin really mean? Transaction speed can't be beat. Bitcoin transfers happen at the speed of the internet, doesn't go faster than that so just forget anything to do with confirmation times, it's an irrelevant argument. Store of value. Don't know how this could be improved on but I have yet to see anyone even try to make an argument in favor of an alt. Currency. Bitcoin is already more divisible than anyone needs at current rates and even at one million a satoshi will be one cent. Transfer fees are so insignificant that it is hardly a reason to switch to another coin without some other large improvement. Those are the important ones. The rest is just fluff.

I'm launching [HOC] on Saturday. It will be backed by asic share payouts, and is run by founder funded owners. This is not your grandpaws pump and dump. This is real, ground roots building value. Jumping on the hype train provides well sometimes, but other times its best to get in on the ground floor and build something up if you want investments to payoff.

I'm banking on Logicoin. Had easily one of the best launches I've seen and the dev team seems fairly commited despite not having any premine (monetary incetive) to continue. I suppose I'm supporting it because they seem passionate which is far more important to me than alot of other factors. It's way undervalued also.
