I read coin desk and follow the bitcointalk threads about Alts and slacks of coins.is there any other effective ways to do proper research on new alt currencies. Any advice would be appreciated.
Usually the most simple ways to make research about the altcoin is it's Bitcoin talk thread and his own site .
If want make sure that whether the altcoin that is launched is safe or not that it is better way to see the programming of the bitcoin whether it is working on Sha 256 , pos or any other algorithm . Because algorithm directly shows the value of the altcoin in the market from the point views of its security .
Secondly here it will be more better to say that the demand of the altcoin will predict the future of the altcoin according to as buy sell .
