Nearly every altcoin has been crashing along with Bitcoin since the beginning of the year, but that doesn't mean that the trend will continue. For example, as Bitcoin fell from $1200 to $500, Litecoin fell from a peak of $45 to $5, and Peercoin from $8 down to $0.75. It's a pattern that almost every coin has mirrored.

To me, one very important thing to look for is active development. With an Android wallet expected to be finished soon, Sunny King's continued (but slow) work on the protocol, and NuBits on the way, Peercoin deserves some attention.

I like the new site, but I'm a little biased on that point.
