NXT started with a vision of a radical new digital economy and was designed from the ground up to create a platform to realise it. Not only does it open up new possibilities – everything from digital cash and property ownership records to smart contracts and online transfer of stocks and shares – but it addresses all of the most serious deficiencies in existing cryptocurrencies. |  PPCInventor of Proof of stake. Proof of Work mining is used to spread the distribution of new coins, while the security of the network is maintained entirely by Proof of Stake minting. This means that Bitcoin mining vulnerabilities such as Selfish Mining do not impact Peercoin security. Peercoin was inspired by Bitcoin, and it shares much of the source code and technical implementation of Bitcoin. The Peercoin source code is distributed under the MIT/X11 software license. |
 DRKDarkcoin. First anonymous coin. Inventor of X11, Darksend, DGW. Darkcoin (DRK) is a digital cryptographic currency created by Evan Duffield. It is based on the Bitcoin software code, with the intention to be a safer and more private alternative to Bitcoin. It is the first anonymous cryptocurrency based on a decentralized anonymity solution. |  NAMENamecoin is a cryptocurrency and the first fork of the Bitcoin software. It is based on the code of Bitcoin, it uses the same proof-of-work algorithm and is limited to 21 million coins. The primary difference from Bitcoin is that Namecoin offers the ability to store data within it's blockchain. The original proposal called for inserting data into Bitcoin's blockchain directly. |  XCPCounterparty is a peer-to-peer financial platform and distributed, open source Internet protocol built on top of the Bitcoin blockchain and network.

 BCBlackCoin is a peer-to-peer digital currency with a distributed, decentralized public ledger; that unlike ones held at traditional banks, are viewable and easily audited by the people. The ability to manage transactions and issue additional BlackCoins is all handled by the network of users utilizing BlackCoin. Because the BlackCoin network is run by the people, holders of BlackCoin receive a 1% yearly interest through a process called staking. |  STRStellar is a decentralized protocol for sending and receiving money in any pair of currencies. This means users can, for example, send a transaction from their Yen balance and have it arrive in Euros, Yen, or even bitcoin. We’re expecting to support the usual categories of transactions: payments to a merchant, remittances back home, or rent splits with a roommate. |  BCNBytecoin is the Next Generation cryptocurrency and the first cryptocurrency created with CryptoNote technology. We truly believe that a stable economic system in the future can only be sustained by introducing a number of competing convertible currencies that are privately held, issued by governments, or open currencies, such as Bytecoin. |
 XCXCurrency, abbreviated XC, is a revolutionary digital currency that is more than just a store of value.

Nu heralds a third generation of cryptoassets featuring stable value managed by shareholders . |  MSCThe Master Protocol facilitates the creation and trading of smart properties and user currencies as well as other types of smart contracts. Mastercoins serve as the binding between bitcoins (BTC), smart properties and smart contracts created on top of the Mastercoin Protocol. Mastercoin enables Bitcoin eco-system service providers to function in decentralized and p2p mode. Adoption of the Master Protocol will drive higher value economic transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain, which is good for |  FTCOne of the oldest altcoins .Payments are fast, global, and secure with near zero payment fees. Therefore merchants do not have to pass on the cost of business to you the customer, meaning you are able to enjoy spending less on the things you love.

NeoScrypt uses stronger components than the Scrypt we are familiar with. It means FTC is ASIC resistant. |
 QRKSuper secure hashing: 9 rounds of hashing from 6 hashing functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein). 3 rounds apply a random hashing function (cPoW). Quark transactions are 10x faster than those of other mainstream currencies. Quark is mined using regular PC power (CPU) and as such offers the public the fairest distribution model available. |  ANCAnoncoin was being released in June 2013 and is focusing on anonymity for the private user. As of now it can be run on darknets like I2P or TOR to reach a higher level of security when connecting with nodes and downloading the Blockchain.
