Some projects to look at

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone,

I would just like to share few projects that look interesting to me and have nice potential for future earnings.
This is just an overview and something to encourage you to research more, not an investment advice.

ARK ($2.73 - 0.00057086) - Ark is a cryptocurrency platform built on top an improved Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) system derived from Lisk, as most dev team from Lisk actually moved to ARK.
It uses Smart Bridges to communicate with other (new and existing) blockchains to further increase its reach, providing a wider range of features in a single place.

Ark plans to stimulate cryptocurrency mass adoption by offering multiple consumer tools like a card network, game tokens, anonymous transactions, multi-signature accounts, and others. Adding more features and tools along the way.

Right now it's reaching it's heights, tho there are many good news to come in September to boost it's price. For start on September 4th is when Ledger will announce Ark support, as many other news to follow like Ark VM...

Waves ($5.92 - 0.00123288 BTC) - is a Blockchain token platform that allows the creation transfer and exchange of custom and fiat tokens and assets through the Blockchain without volatility. The Waves liteclient will features a Portfolio, voting area to facilitate consensus on various projects and a messaging center.

Based on NXT's colored coin technology, Waves was built from scratch to provide new features . Waves plans to deliver a KYC and AML compliant platform with multiple Bank partnerships that will act as gateways for fiat deposits and withdrawals.

Waves has formed a partnership with Mycelium Wallet, Deloitte and it's also working with government of Azerbaijan.
It's not getting much attention lately, and bunch of news should be coming up in September.
I wouldn't be surprised if they get added to Binance platform.

SNT ($0.047089 - 0.00000980 BTC) - Status is an open source messaging platform and mobile browser that allows users to interact with decentralized applications (dApps) that run on the Ethereum Network. In Status, users own and control their own data, wealth and digital identity. The Status Network Token ('SNT') is an Ethereum-based token that is required to interact with the Status Network.

If there is a good time to buy status, it is now in my opinion, looks pretty undervalued ICO price was 10000 for 1 ETH. They have working Alpha version of the app, full of bugs tho, but this one can boom pretty soon.

Voxelus (0.069952$ - 0.00001456 BTC) - a platform that allows anyone, anywhere to create, share and play virtual reality games and experiences without writing a single line of code. Voxelus includes a bundle of free assets that you can use to design with more content coming out every week.
The coin itself (Voxels) is a fork of Litecoin that is fully premined. Mining is possible but not recommended.
The team behind Voxelus is quite impressive having Halsey Minor as a Chairman of Voxelus, he is founder of CNET and was worked on Salesforce, Google Voice, Chairman of Uphold(formaly Bitreserve).

Voxelus has been working directly with Google VR and it was featured app on Google Daydream, Google VR, Google Playstore.

Right now is way under it's ICO price and not getting much attention.

Sia Coin (0.008272$ - 0.00000172BTC) - Sia is an actively developed decentralized storage platform. Users all over the world contribute disk storage from their computers to form a decentralized network.

Anybody with siacoins can rent storage from hosts on Sia. This is accomplish via "smart" storage contracts stored on the Sia blockchain. The smart contract provides a payment to the host only after the host has kept the file for a given amount of time. If the host loses the file, the host does not get paid.

The distrubuted nature of the Sia network enables many optimizations in latency, throughput, reliability, and security. The decentralized nature of the Sia network enables anyone with storage to get paid, lowering the barrier to entry and reducing the overall price of cloud storage.

Sia right now seems like a good buy, File coin and Storj took some attention from it, but SC has actually working product and should get back up in no time. It's also a coin with a lot of long term potential.

Ardor ($0.139933 - 0.00002916 BTC) - is a Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) Platform that will allow users to create their own child chains with specific settings for asset issuance. Ardor is the evolution of the NXT blockchain and offers many advantages over its predecessor, both in functionality and in scalability.

ARDR, the Main Chain tokens are the backbone of the platform, they will be used maintain the blockchain and forge tokens from tx fees, which is the equivalent of Mining in the NXT Proof of Stake (PoS) protocol.

Seems like it reached a decent price to load up some, as soon as BTC stabilizes a bit am expecting it to boom.

Particl ($11.87 - 0.00247249 BTC) - Particl is a blockchain-based eCommerce platform, allowing customers and merchants to be directl connected on a peer-to-peer network with reliable privacy features. Users can buy or sell anything, similar to eBay, Etsy or Amazon, except that all the transaction data, payments and conversations happen over a self-governed, distributed network instead of a central server. Transactions within the network are conducted in PART, the native cryptocurrency in the Particl PoS blockchain.

It's expected to release it's wallet app in September, so good time to load up.

BAT ($0.298094 - 0.00006209 BTC) The Basic Attention Token is an Ethereum-based token that can be used to obtain a variety of advertising and attention-based services on the Brave platform, a new Blockchain based digital advertising system. User attention is privately monitored in the Brave browser and publishers are rewarded accordingly with BATs. Users also get a share of BATs for participating.
Led by Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla and Firefox, the ICO for their web-browser, Brave, raised $35 Million USD in 30 sec.

BAT should release its Mercury version in September so it should be a good time get some.

Metal ($12.69 - 0.00264302 BTC) - Metal is a blockchain-based system utilizing Proof-of-Processed-Payments to identify users, rewarding them for converting legacy fiat currency into cryptocurrency, acting as a bridge to the cryptocurrency world. Metal's system uses provable payments attached to verified identities to distribute currency. Anyone can participate to earn METAL as a reward for converting fiat to cryptocurrency. The Metal project aims to provide all of the financial services small to medium sized businesses (SMB) might need.

The MTL token is the native currency within the Metal system and it's distributed through a Proof of Processed Payments (PoPP) in which users earn MTL for sending money or making purchases.
What makes MTL different than Tenx or MCO, you may ask, well they have a team that's been focused working on a product, still I wouldn't disregard Tenx, but personally I see brighter future for MTL.

You guessed it, news coming in September also. During the time I started to write it's article it's price already went up significantly, but I would think theres still more room to go, or wait for the next dip.

Golem Network Token($0.337475 - 0.00007046 BTC) - The Golem Network is a decentralized computation network. Using Golem users can buy or sell computational power from other users in a peer to peer environment. Golem is built using Ethereum smart contracts as a transaction system for nano-payments within the network. Golem Network Tokens (GNT) will serve as a secure medium for all transactions within the Golem Network.

While SONOM was mentioned much more lately, GNT just recently released Brass Golem Alpha2 0.8, and have more to come in September, and it seems like a good long term hold.

DigiByte ($0.019871 - 0.00000413 BTC) - DigiByte is a rapidly growing three year old decentralized global blockchain with a focus on cyber security, payments & secure communications.

A coin that has adopted the Bitcoin "21" figure but increased the supply to 21 billion - with over 5 algorithms to mine with (Scryt, Sha-256, Qubit, Skein, Groestl) - in order to keep mining local and in the hands of many. A 60 second block target, a 0.5% premine and a block retarget every 2.4 hrs or 244 blocks.

Now while am not the greatest fan of it's tech and team it was a great buy under 300 range, still should be as it has Citi bank finals in October and might be added to HitBtc. Since it's quite a hype coin I expect it to rise before Citi conference announcements.

GAME ($2.34 - 0.00048739 BTC) - GameCredits is a game driven Cryptocurrency, created to facilitate in-game transactions and monetization.

They been around for a while, and now this coin is really under it's market value, so might be good time to stock up, for a longer run.

--

It's also worth to be looking at STRAT, LBC, CVC, IOTA, MGO, ICN, DCT, OMG and TenX.
I hope that this will help you discover coin that you didn't know about before, and make you some nice profits

You really just need ark.

You missed bts. It's not going to stay cheap forever.

Thank you for your comment.

I mentioned BTS earlier here https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@weareourdesires/polo-alts-exploding-for-the-next-week-with-bch-airdrop

But, it's not really coin that I know much about, so can't really recommend it :)
