List the altcoins you think will do best from now to the end of the year.
Coins must be either
a) at least a few months old so it has a stable dev and/or
b) offer some remarkable innovation and/or
c) coin dev must have some purpose for the coin beyond simple profit
Also market cap should be under $100k so there is plenty of room for growth.
Coin must have no ethical clouds.
Must not focus on gambling, mining, etc. Made for users.
Preferably completely fair launch but a small well justified premine in some cases may be okay.
Coins will move up or down if more info on them becomes available.
#1) xcn cryptonite / mini blockchain is the biggest real innovation in some time, downside is high number of coins

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=633803 #5) sonic or sonicscrewdriver is pricey but does look cool
i have not looked at it in depth, caveat emptor
market cap ~200k usd
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=730844.0 cannabiscoin makes the list on fundamentals.
Market cap is high, over$600k, but if the project is above board it could be very profitable.
One of the few coins with a real world application that is not forced.

digibyte has a huge group of devs and looks long term, a bit pricey but will probably be around for a while.
Wouldn't be a top pick for me but looks okay. market cap ~130k usd
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=408268.0 Peercoin and digitalcoin were suggested. Both are long term outstanding coins, especially peercoin.
Both a little rich for this list though. Market caps ~ 20m usd and 180k usd

Neither fish nor fowl coins. These are honest coins. But they don't appeal to me.
1) Checkcoin. A lot of positives but the enormous presale and self moderated thread are too much.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715563.0 2) Feathercoin. Some good things, some bad things. Steady history but not for me.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178286.03) Litecoindark. Nice atmosphere but 3% premine and $350k market cap make it a no go.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760143.04) Bitshares. Obviously very popular and huge market cap but the real world value is unclear.

A shitlist of coins people mention on this thread trying to pump them.
These have a scammy tone and other issues.
1) nfdcoin offers absolutely nothing. Dev uses a lot of scammer hype.
