Given the activity and attention of regulators to bitcoin, those crypto-currencies that will make payments more anonymous and protected than today's bitcoin allow will be very popular. These are such crypto-currencies as XMR (Monero), DASH, ZEC (Z-Cash). Perhaps, there is a future for a coin called Verge (XVG), but I would say that it is still at the very beginning of its journey
Yes Verge (XVG) is at beginning but even its beginning is also a boosted beginning. It is partnered with some bigger companies as a payment system for them and the use is already started and the investors also look at this coin as a bigger one in the future. It is because people now are getting involved in these type of coins for their use in the time of regulations. These coins will be the best but bitcoin will still be the king of all the crypto currencies.
