The year is almost over and we wanted to look at some of the Alt coins and tokens, having the biggest potential for further growth. I work for a software company during the day, but at night I trade cryptos. I am not offering financial advice, invest at your own risk.

I looked at many factors when deciding which Altcoins to list: The scale and the growth of the industry they are disrupting, basic concept, coding skills of the team and the community support for the project. On the topic of the more known Tokens and Coins I tend not to write about basic factors, but focusing more on new development.

These are the Altcoins I believe will change the landscape of cryptos in the upcoming year.

5. PLAYKEY

In this case it is difficult to set the industry they are in, as they are enabling gamers to play games by processing the game remotely and streaming the video to the gamer. Their market is everyone, who want to play a new game, but don’t have the newest device to process it. The team is big and is well rounded, with experienced members. Their community is growing. I am not an avid gamer, but my son might use it.

4. SANTA Token

The market they are disrupting is the gifting and gift card market, where just the gift card industry amounts to 140 billion USD annually. The basic concept is very simple and I don’t see a lot of potential technical problems. Their code is great, specially compared to the simplicity of the app. The only issue as I see it, they started their PR campaign late, so the community around them isn’t built yet. SANTA may not be a great earner, but it a nice idea and I will use it as gifts for friends and family.

3. GRID+

The industry they are disrupting is the electrical energy supply. We are all consumers of electricity so you can imagine the size of the market will not be a problem. The basic idea is genius, but it still needs A LOT of development and research. Their coding skills are impressive and they have a huge following and a healthy community.

2. EOS

The Ethereum replacement. It seems they are going in the right direction, but it all depends on their product, as they are competing with Bitcoins and other currency for the place of the dominant payment currency. I see big things in 2018.

1. POPOLOUS

Much has been written on the subject of PTT. The global factoring market had 2,373 billion turnover in 2015. Basic concept is already proven. Testing the alpha of their product I must say the user experience and the code is better than mediocre, but not great (it is in alpha after all). Beta is to be released soon and I expect that it will deliver. It could be one of the first working models of crypto - real world interaction and if so, you can expect big gains and passive income if you don’t sell and take the profit.

Disclosure:

Richard Morton is invested in all the Coins and Tokens mentioned above.
