I'm looking for low value coins that have good development, preferably presumably good capital from a past ICO and something that will likely be used. A lot of projects are too obscure for me to be able to quickly understand what they are (these types of coins haven't done well) and other have very specific aims that I don't think can be fulfilled (cannabis finance, parking management, ticketing). I'm looking for coins attached to a product for every day tech-types. I think these are the most likely to be used.
My favorites I've mentioned already in this thread. More info posted in previous posts.
PreSearch - a decentralised search engine (in development). The team includes an ETH co-founder and the CEO of Blekko, a previous major search engine competitor. They have a very basic product for now, but it's grown slowly since the crypto crash of 17-18, up to above AlexRank 5,000 (daily), which is somewhere in the region of 400,000-500,000 daily visitors. It peaked at about $115M cap; now at about $6M. You can also get paid $0.01 per search (up to 32 searches per day) and $1 per referral (with conditions) at current coin prices. They just released a browser plugin that allows you to earn the reward while searching for the toolbar. This is a gimmick, but a working gimmick is a lot better than where most projects are at - a whitepaper.
Mysterium - a decentralised VPN with a solid team and backing from big names in The Crypto Valley in Zug, CH. They just released their alpha or beta VPN client, which works well. I imagine they could get relisted on Bittrex now, who kicked them off because they didn't have a working product. So could be a nice buy just for that. Peak market cap was $80M; now below $2M.
CryptoPay - I don't like this as much as I used to. They were the biggest issuer of crypto debit cards, but after that business was disabled it's taken them (and other providers) a long time to get working cards back. They now have cards in Russia and are about to release in Europe again. So that could boost revenues. The coin also pays a "dividend" each month in ETH. At the current price you will be looking at about an 8% dividend, but with the crypto marketing heating up again and the return of their cards in Europe that could double. Currently at $1.2M down from $12M. An issue is that's it's very illiquid and many exchanges won't carry it as it is considered a security. Also, they're not good at marketing.
Decentraland - A crypto minecraft. Quite a hot project in terms of attention and not really a sleeper. The end product is not launched, but they have a marketplace for selling land in the virtual world and a builder. One plot in the world sold for $215,000. At about $55M, down from $320 - one of the most resilient coins in the 17-18 crash.
STEEM - Also not a sleeper. The popular crypto social media platform has been growing again, after the decline in 2018. It's been attracting those banned from MSSM (mainstream social media) and it's decentralised video platform, d.tube is also growing.
GOLOS - Russian version of STEEMIT. Managed to retain most of its user base during the crash, but plummeted from $60M down to $800K at current. Top 10,000 site in Russia and Ukraine.
A few I'm interested in if anyone has more intelligence on them:
KuCoin, exchange with dividend
Propy, decentralised real estate platform
SkyCoin & Substratum, decentralised web and browsing
BitTorrent, currencey for the popular P2P client
I also like: BAT, Enjin, but they have performed very well, so am not attracted to buy.
