How will your favorite cryptocurrency change the world?

12 (mostly) popular alt-coins that represent something unique to the world.

These pioneer flavored crypto-coins are the original trail blazers.

If you're the kind of person who enjoys being first, then these tokens will give you the ability to make the bold claim, "Dude! I was buying it when it was 3 cents bro...".

Technically Namecoin should be on this list as the second. It came out the same year as Litecoin but not as popular.

Bitcoin (BTC)
Litecoin (LTC)

These ninja flavored stealth coins allow you to engage your inner ghost protocol.

For those who need to sneak stealthily through the inter-tubes, then these highly secretive tokens are exactly what you're looking for. These are the ones that enable completely cloaked commerce.

Zcash (ZEC)
Monero (XMR)

Banking flavored alt-coins are great for preventing the fall economic systems that count on debt based banking.

Most of us that have faith in cryptocurrencies really have contempt for central banking (and banking in general). But, if banks are going to exist in the future then they'll need something to insulate themselves from each other!

Before the fall of traditional banking (globally) these tokens will help the banks in the interim.

Ripple (XRP)
Stellar Lumens (XLM)

Business flavored tokens come in two varieties incorrigible and divisive.

If you're a fan of doing business, and potentially eliminating paper pushing jobs (please let these coins kill the paper pushing at places like the DMV - for the love of humanity) then these are the pick for you.

Ethereum (ETH)
Etereum Classic (ETC)

Tree-Hugger flavored crypto-coins won't inflate your power bill or decimate the rain forest.

Love them mountains? How about that forest? And, for sure... we have to save the baby seals don't we? If you want your token creation to burn a lot less energy then these are the ones for you.

Burstcoin (BURST)
NEM (XEM)

Social flavored crypto-coins will help you escape the centralized social networks that we won't mention here.

And, last but certainly not least the reason most of us are on Steemit.com is because we love the social platforms that allow us to share what we are creating with others.

Steem (STEEM)
Synereo (AMP)
