I think another coin that should be gaining interest is XEM. Its value has risen in the past week from like $.20 to $1.00 USD. And that is a big rise.
So I looked into it and XEM is a coin representing the NEM Distributed Ledge Blockchain. I think its revolutionary and can provide a better use of blockchain for everything and not just coins. Please take a look at my blog about it and share with me your thoughts. Please follow me if interested.

thanks @yomaicoin for sharing. XEM seems to complete with many other coins including Ether and EOS. Ether also has the "first to market" advantage. EOS got the scale, the team and the finances (one of the largest ICOs) leaving XEM at a disadvantage - my personal view. Very nice research about the coin though.
