Greetings Crypto Enthusiasts!

I’m really excited to be making my first Medium post and hope it’s the first of many to come.

Last year I decided to conduct some in-depth research on a few low cap, interesting gems. And boy.. was I extremely fortunate to see some major returns.

Here is a snapshot of my portfolio including my 2017 picks.

I just wanted to share some top low cap coins I’ve chosen for 2018. A part of my decision to using Medium was so I could document my picks and re-visit the (hopefully positive) success of these investment predictions in 6 months time.

Here are my top 3 picks with a brief overview on what gives them that edge to drive major gains in 2018!

PHORE ($PHR)

Cap size

$14,825,281 USD

Innovation

Smart Contracts

Lets start with PHORE. The Phore project is focused on providing a privacy focused coin which takes advantage of smart contract technology to allow for the development of dAPPs on the Phore network. This allows it to compete with Ethereum’s growing network of smart contract powered projects, while also providing more privacy to coin owners and dAPP developers than Ethereum.

MasterNodes & Privacy

Phores privacy is further enhanced by it’s MasterNode implementation which provides mining rewards to MasterNode operators, the Phore development team are also working on streamlining the setup of MasterNodes further lowering the technical barriers previously required when setting up a Phore MasterNode.

Marketplace

Providing real world applications for cryptocurrencies is a hurdle for the crypto-sphere as a whole, the Phore development team are working on a decentralised marketplace to bring real tangible value to both the Phore currency and all coin holders, setting a new standard for blockchain related services. Open beta of this decentralised marketplace will be made available during early 2018.

Investor Note:

Phore is a great project and ticks all the right boxes to be the next big privacy coin of 2018. The execution of their Marketplace will play a key factor in their coins success.
