Does anyone actually maintain an alt-coin index that provides some detail content on the top 20 alt coins. Things like:
developer strength - not just number of posts but strength of the individuals and past accomplishments, commitment level
technology factors - not just a guess but some details
momentum indicators - volume, coins mined per day, hash rate, hashrate moving averages, new media links per week/month
Scam indicator - premine, scammy founders, copied technology, pump and dump precedent
Mining method and future
Just too much information and too distributed, and for the average crytpo speculator it seems impossible to do anything but guess right now.
For me this compilation even not comprehensive on everything mentioned subject still was very useful to understand at least something:
