Share them.

I have always liked some of the more quirky altcoins that go about doing things a bit differently from everyone else and/or bring something new to the table feature-wise. Premine (PMC) is one of those. The entire coin supply was premined and given away as an experiment to see how the Bitcoin ecosystem might look like in 2140. The network is sustained by miners who only get transaction fees. Interestingly, it also helped uncover a bug in the Bitcoin code that would have kept on generating coins past 2140. Datacoin (DTC) is another coin I like because it's the first and only crypto to emphasize the file storage abilities of the blockchain.

myriadcoin,

multi algo PoW is the only way to keep it(securing the blockchain) decentralized, bitcoin will eventually be in control of a few companies that control huge mining facilities. this is the one coin that really Everyone can mine!



fluttercoin

seems pretty cool with a new way of securing the network

Primecoin

Unique algo that actually has some scientific use.

Yup same here, although it's #17 on Coinmarketcap.com so it still seems to be in demand.

Another one I forgot to mention is Huntercoin which was the first human-mineable altcoin that's also a game. It's #157 on Coinmarketcap.com right now and while I don't have any coins (yet), it's definitely a unique and interesting altcoin. Shame the developer died though.

Nice thread Smiley
I'd choose Gridcoin, because I find the mining concept quite useful: it solves block by contributing to BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing), which contributes considerably to science. It's a neat way to find another positive use for a coin's hashpower.

I like Primecoin. This coin really helps to science:
Another world record broken on 5/16! We found our first 14 length Cunningham chain of the second kind! Which has on origin with 100 digits.
This coin has real scientifc value. Check it out on http://primecoin.io/

Its sister coin Peercoin also isn't liked enough by the community, imho.
Sure, it has a big market cap, but there's barely any discussion about it on Bitcointalk, even though it's developping awesome concepts based around the coin, like Peershares: http://peershares.net/general-information/

I really like Huntercoin because is the only really different coin, being human minable with a game included in the wallet, but the initial hype seems vanished.

I'm too fan of both Huntercoin and Fluttercoin and I don't
think they get the attention they deserve..

But the market at present is driven by quickly changing fad and
get-rich-quick mentality.

Sterling and dollar are under-rated. Backed by governments too although most here seem to think that a currency based on nothing more than a promise of a developer is worth more.

Yes I know they're not perfect by a long way but they have a lot going for them compared to any crypto currency

Off topic. Dork. This is a thread about coins, not sucking it for the state. Move on, clown.

myriadcoin,


I still believe in this coin although I can't remember exactly why.

Same thing with Nautiluscoin.. Some real innovation, financial backing and industry know-how. Also incredibly subject to Wall Street manipulation, but I am holding for the long run.

I also like CounterParty which I never hear about except for on podcasts. And I only hear about UNO in its respective thread. (Also a handful of self-imposed financial gurus seem to like it too.)

Some decidedly unpopular coins that I am holding long-term or "forever":

AC
DOGE
EMC2
HIC
ISR
LTC
MINT
NOBL

(feel free to flame away, I don't care)
