I have build my portfolio around solid coins at the moment. ETH, BTC, STRAT and XRP but there are few shit coins that I like to play around with that have good ideas and community to support them. Some might be forks of other coins with minor tweaks... but sometimes forks do win out!
Here are my Top 20 shit coins that could win out in 2017
BLK - Nice support, been around for a while. Few improvements over other coins
NXS - Going for a global network of satellites
LBRY - Blockchain YouTube, STEEM could do better though
IOC - Good development team
POT - Best Marijuana coin, if there is a market for it this should be the coin.
EXP - Good development team based of Ethereum
YBC - Chinese coin
AEON - Solid Anonymous coin
MONA - Been around for a while, could have a come back
CLAM - Old coin with support, could see a come back, POC new concept
FTC - Could be better than LTC if LTC can replace BTC why cant FTC replace LTC... a bit of risk.... :)
CRW - Apps platform, could do well like ETH and STRAT but they are obviously the better ones
BCY - In game
XPM - Looking for prime numbers.... something useful could be done with that....
PASC - Another fresh blockchain idea
QRK -
NAUT - Scalable BTC, could do better than some of the BTC forks
APX - New tec at a low price
VRS - New tec new platform, could compete with STRAT and ETH
BLU - Good oldie, much like BLK with a few differences.
These coins I would only reccomend having 4-1% of your portfolio on. Many of them could fail, but some could see huge comebacks. Make sure you understand the idea of the coin and do your own research beforehand!
