As investors, traders, and speculators look for yield or quick Return on Investment (ROI), Bitcoin often tops the list of possible investment along with stocks, indices, commodity or investment funds. Bitcoin as a financial alternative is relative new compared to the other traditional investment opportunity listed above. It has just celebrated its 9th anniversary and has galvanize a cryptocurrency ecosystem with a market capitalization of over 180 Billion USD strong. Today 1 BTC would cost you at present market price $6526.67 USD enjoying a 1 year price increase of +$5,826.35 USD and staggering +805.08% on year growth. In fact very few if any investment instrument can provide that kind of return. As this ecosystem continues to grow and become mainstream I believe its prudent that we start analyzing possible investment opportunities that are actually keeping up with the BTC value.

Here is a list of coins that are actually keeping up with BTC rise that includes the likes of Bitshares, EOS, Golem, Bitcoin Cash, Etc

These list of coins base on descending market cap value goes as follow Bitcoin Cash, Bitconnect, EOS, Golem, Bitshares, Status, Syscoin, Veritaseum, Verge, Groestlcoin, GXShares, Pura, Loopring, FairCoin and Rise. Some of these coins are well known names that have actual products and others are in the process of getting their actual product release. Depending on your financial threshold and risk appetite, these projects are certainly worth exploring, as usual I encourage everyone to do their own due diligence and invest accordingly. What makes this list interesting, everyone stands a chance, projects like Bitshares that has an actual product goes at present market price of 6 cent USD. A 50 USD investment could really change or significantly alter your life opportunity in 4 or 5 years time. Other exciting projects like EOS are currently price under 1 USD, and Golem is less than 30 cents, so everyone can participate in this market.

While I encourage everyone to have some exposure to BTC as its without doubt the King, diversifying into some of these projects and others can only help further enhance your financial freedom. Here is a list of these same coins in their present USD value.

Always remember that investment into any of these projects carry significant risk and returns are never guaranteed but taking note of trends and market sentiment can help position yourself to make significant returns. While this list looks strictly at coins/ token keeping up with the BTC pace, there are other projects that offer great returns but the recent price action haven't caught up with the BTC pace.
