What are some good AltCoins with good future prospects? (The rationale for these would also be helpful.)

Stratis

Stratis is not coin but an end-to-end blockchain development platform. What gives this project a clear advantage is its language choice – it allows developers to code decentralized apps in an existing, widely adopted programming language, C#. The project has a very active development team and backing by Microsoft makes it a winning project to invest in.

NEO

NEO is being called "The Chinese Ethereum" and will allow programmers to build decentralized applications on top the blockchain in C# and Javascript. But the fact is NEO is much more superior then ETH. It had a very good run untill China’s ICO ban and subsequently the closure of Bitcoin Exchanges. Once they are regulated, I assume we will have a nice run again.

OmiseGo

Omise has been around since 2013. This is not a new company, but rather one with history. They have offices in Thailand, Japan, Indonesia and Singapore. The company provides a payment management system for businesses to accept payments through their mobile application or online store.
OmiseGo is their blockchain-based financial technology that focuses on digital, real-time value transfers and payments. It surely has potential to grow significantly and bring good returns

Waves

Waves is a versatile 2.0 platform that allows users to trade tokens of value on a fully decentralized network. This allows for leveraging of speed, security, and transparency of the blockchain with the stability and adoption of established currencies – fiat currencies or digital cash, and the WAVES token is the fuel of this platform.

Qtum

An open source Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain application platform. Qtum’s core technology combines a fork of Bitcoin Core, an Account Abstraction Layer, allowing for multiple Virtual Machines aimed at tackling industry use cases and offering a robust environment for developers.

Metal

METAL is fairly distributed through a process known as, Proof of Processed Payments (PoPP). When you send money or make purchases you earn a little reward in METAL for every dollar you spend. Transfer money instantly around the globe with nothing more than a phone number.

Lisk

Lisk is a decentralized network with its own blockchain that has been launched to create a blockchain that enables developers to build a wide range of apps on the Lisk network by developing custom side chains. It is built in JavaScript for JavaScript developers and that alone is a huge advantage.
Sidechain development platform, Well connected team, First mover advantage & great developer community.

Civic

Civic is a secure identity platform. It’s like a digital wallet that bridges your physical and cyber credentials. Giving businesses and individuals the tools to control and protect identities.

Vertcoin

VertCoin is also a decentralized currency and uses blockchain technology like Bitcoin, but unlike Bitcoin, it has decentralized mining also. It aims to ensure that mining pools don't dominate the network like it has for Bitcoin.

Augur

Built on Ethereum network, Augur is building a forecasting tool. Anyone can built there own prediction market and ask questions. You will have thousands reporting on market outcomes using their consensus system.

BAT

The Basic Attention Token (BAT) has been conceptualized as a means of improving the efficiency of digital advertising by creating a new token which can be exchanged between publishers, advertisers, and users on the Ethereum blockchain. Led by Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla and Firefox, the ICO for their web-browser, Brave, raised $35 Million USD in 30 seconds flat.

Edit:

Sorry! I for got to mention Monaco and TenxPay. I would also like to mention that the coins listed are in no particular orders. Hence, should not be taken as ranking.

wow ! You are on the right track. I have edited the post please look into it again for more clarity. Thanks for the appreciation.

Oh yea, you added Tenx to your post. Very Nice. It's one of my favorite and larger holdings. Monaco is nice as well. I got into Token card and then Monaco came out. I had two "Card" coins so I hesitated after it started trading. A lot of hype associated with it as well so I was sceptical. In hindsight I think I should have got some anyway. Glad you got into it :)

Just got on a bit ago. Still need to work on my top coins. I'll probably put a post out in the future as that may take some time. Your post was great!

Good Luck!

Thanks ! Monaco is awaiting approval from VISA and it should be about in a week or so. If approved, we will have a nice ride. Tx.

Great post. Good to see Civic on your list.

The only thing I see wrong with Civic is it's one billion supply. Other than that a perfect coin to invest in. Thanks!
