I guess there's no reasoning with insanity.  I just hope people can see past Spoetnik's blathering and maybe learn something from this topic.

Seeing this topic here meant that list of coins was new to me.
I never heard of any of those even once.
No exaggerating.. not even one single time.

I am sure that will confuse you guys to death too so i will not elaborate further LOL
Like uhhh what ? i don't get it hahhaha

It's pointless.
This topic keeps getting posted year after year and thousands and thousands of new coins pop up
with random noob's with ohh sooo precious advice.. arguing with me every step of the way.
Because apparently they know better.

You Noob's showed up late and ruined the whole Altcoin scene.
You lowered the bar when it comes to morality.. it's been scraping on the ground for years now.
Which is why most people left long ago.
The desperate dregs still here are greedy little pieces of shit hard at work killing crypto.
and then we have the long con desperate losers. . who refuse to see the writing on the wall.

You guys show up here LATE.. your intent in making money and your desperate.
This has crated a giant Ponzi / Pyramid scheme Altcoin exchange economy.
A giant circle jerk of scammy pointless shit coins to profit off of.
Which one to choose ?
Hold on some kid just showed up 5 minutes ago.. lets ask him.. why ?
Because he wants to make money and he made 0.003 BTC of some shit coin (so he' an expert now)

I say on average once a year (on topics like these)
If you have to ask your money is already gone.. you just don't know it yet.
This is where kids go to play with the school lunch money with corrupt adults who make the rules up as we go along.

What coin to pick ?
Shouldn't the question be.. SHOULD i pick an Altcoin at all ?
The fact you new guys never ask that shows me you are already a victim.
This is not a situation where you see a coin come along and think ok i have been waiting and now i see something worth my effort.
This is a scene where you all come along clutching money from your bank via BTC..
where you all -HAVE- to pick a coin *NOW* ..and you _HAVE_ profit as soon as possible.
And of that proposition does not scream loser victim to you then well have fun.

Put a dollar in your hand so i can take all of it from you later.

Oh a couple coins the allmighty Spoetnik hasn't heard of? Hold the fucking press everyone; no one has to think about or discuss anything anymore because our omnipotent genius crypto master has figured everything out!

Are you fucking serious with this grandiose bull shit you're trying to pedal as coherent thought? The only one in this topic who's arguing a pointless topic that thinks they know better is you.

No one is asking which coin to choose, no one is recommending coins, and all advice other than the midless eth zombie has been accompanied with disclaimers that these techniques are not sure things and are not guaranteed. All that is being discussed is ways to try and avoid the Ponzi/pyramid schemes and the circle jerk scammy pointless shit coins.

Your attitude towards newcomers to cryptos is exactly the kind of attitude that is hindering the progress of mainstream adoption and is complete garbage.  People wanting to get involved in cryptos is what this community needs, not what's hurting it, and it's topics like this where they can potentially learn how to not get deceived.  Unfortunately, there exists a race of elitist self worshiping scum like you who will tell them over and over that it's too late and imply that anyone who is curious about how to discern promising coins from scams is a kid coming to play with school lunch money. The scam coins target ignorance, not curiosity. The best way to avoid ignorant adopters is through education, not spewing verbal feces as you so clumsily managed to do.

Maybe if you got off your cardboard high horse and took your dick out of your hand for 5 minutes you'd be able to form a complete logical concept in your bloated head.  You are a joke. Please, gtfo.

Firstly it is a road map.
Secondly, it is highly desirable that there were no sales perdvaritelnoy coins.
In the mass, follow the news in the main branch
Fourth, you need to learn more about Dev (his past projects, etc.)
And finally, good luck) I'm in the middle fork in the selection, it turns out to make 200-400% profit.

How do you find out more about the dev's? Just looking at their BT profile?

Promising coins can be trap now ! Be aware we are approaching block halving and, scammers will do anything to get your coins! You can already see how they influencing this forum with stories about next bitcoin..New projects already have very good marketing tricks. Look at ETH hype and everything is clear as a day.

Yeah, all the ETH hype is ridiculous. I can't seem to find anything I like about that coin.

Best way is to watch how community rising and what kind of atmosphere is in tread.
If they expecting some good news investigate more, you are maybe on right track, but this is very dangerous
if behind devs standing pumper group. So open your eyes.

Yeah that seems like it would be beneficial.  From your experience where is the best place to get a feel for the devs? reddit,slack,here? or does it depend on the coin?

In case you did not notice people claim all these coins are legit.
And you let to know far more than the advice you are requesting.. i am done here.
Not interested in playing games.

and yeah you have asked the same question as 100's of others OP.

I know there are going to be people claiming the legitimacy of every coin. I'm not asking for specific coin suggestions, but rather help building a tool set to avoid getting scammed and/or mislead by those people.  Not sure what you mean by, "And you let to know far more that the advice you are requesting." Maybe I need to know far more? Or are you saying I already know? I wouldn't be asking for advice if I was a master investor and knew everything about cryptos.  If you aren't interested in playing games then don't come into a topic with hostility and offer no constructive advice.  I know the topic is the same as others but those topics are filled with old information and spam from scam hypers.  This is a beneficial topic to have started again for anyone looking into cryptocurrency from newbie to someone like me who knows the basics and stuff that was relevant a year ago, but wants to stay caught up without having to weed through thousands of pages of posts like yours, which offer nothing in terms of constructive information.

You'd have to hire someone if you're not technical. Or maybe I should sell mine.

Here's what I got on the last run a few hours ago. This is the kind of thing a script outputs

CMC    Name      Ticker     CAP     Vol    1hr     24hr     1week   Ratio
203    HODLCoin HODLCoin    HODL     68811     604    6.31     23.39     ?   113.9254966887

314    Bubble Bubble    BUB     2245     18    0.07     1.53     ?   124.7222222222
324    Antilitecoin Antilitecoin    ALTC     965     13    0.04     -4.56     ?   74.2307692308

332    Independent Money System Independent ...    IMS     486     28    0.04     4.15     ?   17.3571428571


It's not a guarantee though - in fact I can guarantee some of these are dogs. It's just a starting point for research - you can't write a script for that.

I have very little experience writing scripts and thought I could do this one but I'm having a little trouble, PM me if you decide to sell yours, I would definitely be interested! Wink  If not, could you point me in the direction of a good resource for learning more about writing them myself?

Price is pretty irrelevant, available supply doesn't mean a lot on it's own, but volume is really important.

There are two key things I look at in a newly added coin - the market cap, the volume . . . and most importanly market cap divided by volume. That really tells a story - I like something around a ratio of 100. You won't get this number on CMC, gotta do that in your script.

You can see this even with larger coins - You want a good ratio . . . for example
Bitcoin 74:1
Litecoin 118:1

Compare that to larger coins with suspect valuations -
Ripple 1700:1
Bytecoin 979:1

Too large and it's a dodgy premine, too small and it's a pump'n'dump.


Well damn..I was expecting some crazy algorithm haha. That's exactly the kind of constructive information I was trying to find! Grin So from that point I'd assume you just need to do your research and look for any scammy tell tales.  

I have been out of the cryptocurrency loop for a little while and assume that scammers have evolved with the times. Obviously huge premines as you said are suspect and that ratio seems a decent way to identify a pump n dump. Are there any new red flags that scream scam to you from your experience?

Seriously, huge thanks for all the info.

Start by searching for the other topics just like this one created already.
There is probably 100+

Then i usually ask what is your intention.
- Profit.. NOW!!
- Long term / Investment ?
- Currency Usage.. now or later ?
- Do you want to support Crypto ?
- Combo of reasons ?

Your asking a vague question.
And it's the same as when every other person asked here before.

You might as well walk into a store and say show me something i like.

As I assume you know, the climate in the cryptocurrency world is constantly changing. I posted a new topic because I am interested in current crypto concepts and how to navigate them properly.

 To answer your question, my intention is long term investment and to gain a greater understanding about the underlying technology .  Obviously, investing in stable growing industry results in monetary gain so I won't act like I'm not interested in profit, but I fully support crypto and believe that it is the future of currency.

With all (due?) respect, my question is not vague, as I am specifically asking what set of criteria people are using to determine the legitimacy of new coins.  Additionally, the reality of the situation is contrary to your analogy. This is more like me walking into a hardware store and asking long time customers what characteristics of previously purchased tools they have found to be indicitave of a long lasting product.

as a trader, I did not just focus on one coin. but if there is a new coin put in an exchanger, I will focus on that coin because pump and dump scheme will be very profitable

I'm not much interested in trading as I am in finding legitimate projects that have potential to grow and develop over time but I appreciate the advice!

I keep an eye on coinmarketcap for new coins - before it hits cmc, it's too early.

Here's the table,

http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/views/all/

If you see a '?' in the last column (7 day change), that's a new coin that's just been added to CMC and is worthy of further investigation. Sometimes CMC makes a mistakes and puts a '?' in the last column, so to make sure, check the chart to make sure it doesn't have much history.

I have a script set up to report new coins hitting CMC for me that meet certain parameters.

It's not a guarantee, but it generally throws up coins that are worthy of further investigation.

Thanks for the tip! I always get bogged down trying to weed through ANN posts for new coins but this method makes much more sense.  I'll have to look into making a script of my own Smiley I think I can figure that out, but what about these parameters you speak of? Just values from CMC?

Thanks again  Grin

With new altcoins coming out every day, I'm having a hard time discerning which ones to take seriously, and which to disregard. Huh What criteria do you look for in a new coin that makes it stand out?  Please don't spam me with a sales pitch for your coin.  I would like to know the process for picking out promising new coins before they've already succeeded.

=> I do not expect a publicity attack on XMR. It is so difficult to use still, nobody will cease to use it because of another bankster campaign, but their even mentioning of it might cause more to join in!

My experience is, to do the exact opposite of what the mainstream media and banksters tell you, then you are quite fine  Grin Shocked Roll Eyes

How do you know they're not anticipating that kind of mentality and using targeted marketing based on comprehensive personality profiles to exploit that kind of anti-establishment behavior to benefit their cause? Shocked

I find that it's best to base your decisions on logic and reason that you attain through life experience and meticulous observation of the nature of reality.  It is always harmful to be 100% conformist, or 100% contrarian imho.

Look for a coin that a history and has something that could attract investment. Peercoin was the first POS coin and has a infrastructure optimised for sidechains which is why i invested in it. It also has staying power and moves along with BTC and LTC.

Thank you! That makes sense.  Maybe speculating brand new coins  isn't wise for me until I get a better understanding of the technology and climate of the industry.

Re: ETH really becoming a new BTC
by

on 21/03/2016, 08:14:42 UTC
The centralization of BTC will lead to its downfall.  Eth is possibly a lot of smoke and mirrors but it is a fun ride just now and it has potential to go massive before common sense prevails.  It does have potential, at least if the hype is believed.  But it can also go down the dead end route that BTC has gone.

What makes ETH possibly smoke and mirrors and how has bitcoin gone down a dead end route? I am truthfully curious why you say those things.  I know little to nothing about ETH and from what I've seen with bitcoin, it is doing quite well and has been for a long time.

There is no difference AT ALL between the nature of ETH and the nature of BTC.

Goddamn it.  Someone needs to show these people a thing or two.

..is there a "DAPP" for that?  Grin

And you know what i have been thinking? (I may have to launch a topic on the matter)
Who are you stoat?

Really, i would love to know where these NEW users here came from EXACTLY coinciding with
a massive spammy hype campaign here on the forum.. a bunch of NEW accounts popped here
all at once flooding this place with deceitful Ethereum propaganda.
And the creepy weird part is all of these NEW users all rail & rant on like the holiest of holy super experts on Crypto
..with their post count at 8 and their registration time at 2 weeks.

@stoat
Just who are you ?
And, what qualifications and relevant experience do you have in the crypto scene ?
Why is it you demand to be the authority on this stuff and insist on lecturing Hero & Legend accounts here ?
Really, in any other forum in the world this shit just wouldn't fly!

Someone needs to show these people a thing or two?
I think we need to re-instate the "Nooby Jail" then i would not have had to run around exposing your fraud.
After all i had to go through the probationary period ..unlike you and your half dozen co-ETH-spammers.




WHO ARE YOU STOAT ?

 

I've been looking into cryptos lately and I can't help but notice that EVERYONE seems to be talking about ETH. I want to invest but it seems too good to be true, and that tells me that it is..I don't know any of the underlying technology though so it's hard to discern the truth(much like any topic widely debated on the internet).  You seem to be calling it like you see it..would you mind giving me a laymans explanation of what all this ETH hype is about?

You've just picked the right coin to invest at that time,with so many new altcoins coming up you don't know what will yield you the most profit in the long run, better analysis is one of the thing you need to invest and make a profit..

I agree, there is a staggering number of new altcoins out there and the number only seems to be growing. I have no idea where to start with this kind of stuff! Do you have any suggestions as to what kind of coin characteristics I should avoid/look for when looking for a coin to get involved with?
