I don't care which altcoins you buy, but I want to clarify some statements about Nxt - the network and NXT - the coin.

Sure the distribution of NXT fucked up, too many coins landed in the accounts of too few people. They were lucky! BTW there were only one dev at that time, BCNext, and he got 21 BTC for his work. AFAIK the distribution of the coins was transparent and he didn't hold back any coins for himself. So no rich "devs", only rich investors like you and me! That doesn't make NXT a scam coin!

I see a trend here that people argue that every coin which cannot be mined is a scam coin. Wake up guys! With mineable coins you give your money to big companies like KNC, decentralized home-mining with PCs and GPUs was a good idea but it's a thing of the past! I'd rather invest in a coin which is not mined and has a low energy profile, even if that means that I have to buy it from "stakeholders". They are guys like us so we keep the money "in the family" and don't give it to big hardware vendors (and paying our power bills - ouch!).

If you dare and dig deeper into Nxt, you will learn that "Nxt - the network" is built upon hard development work sponsored by the original stakeholders. Because these guys didn't sit on their coins but put out bounties for development achievements now we have some great features like aliases, asset exchange, encrypted messaging, digital goods store to name just a few. LOL, some of the assets on the Nxt Asset Exchange has even bigger market capitalization than some of the altcoins mentioned here as a recommendation!

Just my two cents.

Could not agree more!
