There are too many trash currencies out there. I've heard counts as high as 2000. Hopefully, this cryptsy dive will take out a few hundred that should die.
There might be 10 worth investing into... most of those 2000 are just scamcoins that were dumped and abandoned by the "dev", ages ago
Personally, I'm sick of the overly general or non-global coins. I think the best coins are the ones that have an actual purpose other than "to just buy stuff".
