With so much constant movement in the alt coin space, it can get overwhelming and difficult to keep track of all the coins.This table is meant to serve as a gentle reminder to what a specific coin/asset actually does. I have linked the websites for each coin so if you are interested you may dig deeper. The rankings are based on market cap.
I caught myself getting caught up in the hype train for some of the coins heading “to the moon” , so the way I intend to use this table myself is to remind myself if I actually believe in what the company is actually accomplishing. Hopefully, you may find this useful.
Value Picks:
Ubiq - Ethereum has multiple forks planned for the future which may be disruptive to some businesses. Ubiq is offering a more stable blockchain for the Ethereum platform. Current market cap rank is 47.
BAT - Basic Attention Token (BAT) was developed for remedying the broken online advertising platforms that exist right now. Brandon Eich, who created Javascript, and Firefox is the founder of BAT and has developed the Brave browser. Essentially, the project is blockchain based digital advertising. Current market cap rank is 37.
