Vertcoin might appeal to you. POW, with a focus on maintaining decentralization, ASIC resistant, and organic growth. A huge and active community with lots of optimism, and what seem to be very good developers. And it has some history to it. No ICOs, no bells and whistles, just an honest crypto that solves some of the issues plaguing bitcoin.
I like it. I also like the willingness of the developers to change their mining algorithm if there is a threat of Asics being developed. It also has a decent sized community from checking the amount of subscribers on Reddit.
Development is continuous and hash rate is also increasing. The future looks good for this coin. But I cannot invest in it anymore because the price has already been pumped.
Give me more suggestions.
