There were many currencies which increased more than 1000% thanks to the volatile nature of cryptos and the quest of people to invest on the next Bitcoin. As per statistics, many asleep traditional investors became aware of the BTC in the last quarter of 2017. A considerable amount of these were scared by the volatility and others want to find out what they missed out on. Hence starts the search for the next rise from the hundreds of promising cryptos available right now, which there will be for sure. I have been really inspired by the crypto market since 2016 and here's my view for the next gen coins that stand out from the usual blockchain or have something more to offer:

1.) Ripple (XRP) for Sure: Backed by 100+ huge banks all around the world, it will surely touch more than 10$ by the end of 2018. (That's the least of my expectation). There's very little chance it won't happen as they are global banks constitute the world economy: If they are supporting and partnering with Ripple, it can't be stopped.

2.) MoonCoin (MOON): MOON has been around for a long time but its only getting noticed now. Mooncoin isn't an unminable currency that you are not allowed to hold and control personally invented and pushed by corrupt bankers, ie ripple. Mooncoin isn't a joke currency with inflation that has no end and is mined unintentionally, ie doge. This is somewhat contrary to what I said about Ripple in point 1, but its always good to back a limited currency at its phase when it has still not hiked and is available for pennies.

3.) KIN and XP: Both these currencies stand out from their competetion and actually have a product to offer unlike the rest of the pump and dump currencies. I might be either wrong about them or be really very rich by the end of 2018.
