Burst kind of seems like a good idea. I bought a small amount recently.
Cryptonite seems to have some good ideas, including the mini chain. A few things concern me about it though despite the low price.
No ico/premine/investor coins.
I'm not against IPOs/ICOs at all. The process of development of a coin costs a lot of money. Programmers, computers, testnet network, time...
I think the most important thing is doing this process in a fair way.
The basic problem is that an ipo/ico etc shows the coin needs marketing to get off the ground, and worse, it usually does indicate a coin that will not last. Most ipo/ico coins are pumped up and then collapse.
As for "it costs a lot of money...", if a person really has a good idea it doesn't cost a lot of money to start. A bad idea is expensive to promote, a good idea usually is not. We can argue any point but that is a pretty basic fact.
Applebyte ABY seems to have a massive premine but it has a sort of original idea in a way. Market cap $62,000.
Shadowcash $600,000 and moderated thread.
Blackcoin $1,000,000 and moderated thread.
Whitecoin $100,000 and moderated thread.
Syscoin is overtraded as is mentioned by the poster, also moderated and premined. $147,000.
Blackcoin has an unmoderated thread too, but lately they created a moderated thread because of the trolls. Anyway, you are free to create an unmoderated thread about any of these coins.
True, any person can create an unmoderated thread for any coin. Any person can run for president too or apply for a job as an astronaut. In practical terms if a dev chooses to use a moderated thread then that is pretty much the thread for the coin. And generally, in my opinion, a competent dev does not make that choice.
There is always a justification people can find for bad choices like limiting comments. "We need to keep out the trolls" or whatever. The first step in limiting any kind of free speech is the step to avoid.
