The poll is biassed in my opinion or the thread has been poorly researched.
The best altcoin is the one that gives most value either by pump and dump or by stability.
There are many coins that can make it. No one knows. There are many coins that give good value if pumped and dumped.
If you look at the coin market cap for most adopted coin (
http://coinmarketcap.com/) then Feathercoin is #10 whereas Worldcoin, Quarkcoin and Megacoin are higher yet not mentioned in this thread.
Pump and dump coins are not valuable in any real sense, they're just bubbles ready to burst, I don't know why you'd say that provides value. The winners in pump and dump are completely at the expense of the losers, no wealth has been created, the world is not a better place, and it doesn't even serve as a good medium of exchange...
EDIT: I guess the initial question is "what should we invest in" which is different from the topic of "what is the best altcoin" and I guess pump and dump could be a valid investment vehicle, albeit a very risky one, you never know if you're the *greatest* fool or not.
