Top 10 Cryptos of the Future (July 15, 2017) - A weekly ranking of the best place to put your money in the Cryptosphere
#1. LIBRARY CREDITS is positioning themselves to be the "Netflix of Cryptos". Their vision is to use the blockchain to remove the middlemen from artistic content distribution. Imagine unlimited music, movies, and other multimedia available at the click of a mouse without any centralized controlling corporation (monopoly) to censor, tax, extract fees, or force their advertisements down your throat. LBRY will connect artists directly with their customers offering unlimited flexibility in distribution which should benefit both creators of original content and their audience. This company has a long ways to go to get mainstream adoption, but if they are successful, it could add a couple zeroes to the end of their valuation.
#2. PATIENTORY is yet another unique application of blockchain to a field that desperately needs an overhaul. Free and easy way to store and manage your health information and get the best answer to any healthcare question. Complete, accurate, secure, and readily available medical records is a big challenge. If PTOY can streamline the healthcare process, that will be worth far more than it's current market cap of $7 million! The advisory board includes CEO/Founder of STORJ and investor who deals in the hundreds of millions. This coin will have NO problem reaching $1billion marketcap in the long term. That's a hundred bagger at least!
#3. GAME CREDITS is the premier blockchain-based gaming company. They have spent over $1million in development already and have an open/operational mobile app store which is planned to add up to 1000 games this year. They have an aggressive marketing campaign and big head start on the competition. This is a huge market which will continue to steal share from Google Play and Apple App Store. The recent drop in price creates a great entry as long term it should have no problem getting to $1billion valuation.
#4. Mysterium is pursing a niche market that happens to be worth around $45billion at the moment. They are looking to provide VPN services for everyone that are completely decentralized and private. In an age when government spying on the public is at a peak, and monopolies of the tech industry are rampant, this idea just makes perfect sense. Mysterium is in the right place at the right time with the right product that the world really wants and needs. There are coins with the potential to increase 100x in price and this is one of them. China recently announced crack-down on VPN's which may create even more interest in MYST.
#5. EDGELESS is taking on one of the most corrupt and lucrative businesses - gambling. They are seeking to utilize the blockchain to bring transparency and fairness to a historically shady and rigged industry. They say, "the house ALWAYS wins!" Well, that may be true, but they don't have to win by a 10 to 1 margin! Edgeless plans to remove the 'house edge' (casino advantage) and gamblers everywhere will finally have a fair chance at hitting the jackpot. This is a great example of the blockchain improving every industry that it touches.
#6. GEOCOIN is a hidden gem of a crypto! The downside is the development team seems a bit small and quiet at the moment. However, this idea is pure gold! Combining crypto currency with geospatial data is going to be a game-changer for multiple industries. I will not elaborate further at this time, since I plan to accumulate more while this "on the grid" coin is still off the grid of most investors! Hard to imagine a way that this doesn't increase 100x from this level. Interesting coincidence there is a movie called "GeoStorm" coming out in October... Might be a good time to own GEO!
#7. iEXEC RLC is another contender in the cloud storage space, similar to STORJ (which I also like). The Total Supply of RLC is 1/5th of STORJ and does NOT have a hard fork in it's recent past (STORJX) to make it much more attractive to investors. iEx.ec aims at providing distributed applications running on the blockchain a scalable, secure and easy access to the services, the data-sets and the computing resources they need. This technology relies on the Ethereum smart contracts and allows building a virtual Cloud infrastructure that provides high-performance computing services on demand. Sounds like something that would be worth a lot in the near future!
#8. ANTSHARES (soon to be called as "NEO") remains at number 8 this week after a critical Reddit post exposed their code to be "amateurish". However, the founders have made it very clear that their intention is to not only compete with Ethereum, but to be technologically superior in multiple, obvious ways. In addition to that, Antshares is based in China and has a huge advantage there, which happens to be at this point in time, the heart of the cryptosphere. Finally, Antshares value is currently around 3% that of Ethereum which leaves plenty of room for appreciation.
#9. IONOMY is competing for a piece of the multi-billion dollar gaming industry. ION looks to be a great investment here as GAME has proven this market has a lot of potential! GAME sits at $83million market cap which I believe is LOW. It will also probably get close to $1billion in the long term. However, in terms of investment VALUE, ION at $9.1 million market cap is a golden opportunity here! Part of their plan is to use revenues from their sales to repurchase outstanding coins to drive the price up faster. They also offer Master Node option if you buy 20,000 ION you can earn decent return by holding them.
#10. STEEM should not be hard to promote on this site. The people who are here can see that the future of social media needs a dose of social justice and accountability that only blockchain technology can provide. No one likes a bully, whether that bully is on a playground in school, or the CEO of one of the largest companies (monopoly) in the world. Society doesn't always act fairly for everyone all the time, but with distributed power, comes a sense of fairness and justice that allow us to advance together. This community and movement will only continue to grow. So might as well hop on the train - full STEEM ahead!
This post represents my view and opinion of the cryptosphere at this time. It is not to be considered investment advice. There is a good chance that I may own or will soon own any or all of these coins. I would love to hear any comments or tips which cryptos you think may be better than these! (I'm SURE I missed some good ones...)

Nice post, I am new to crypto( i wrote this post about it - https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@benlearns/my-first-week-trading-cryptocurrencies) and I can use all the help i can get. I have already invested in STEEM and Antshares and I will probably invest in LBRY in the future. Thanks for making this, I upvoted and followed you.
Cool! Thanks!
Mysterium could benefit from a re-brand :) I have something personal with anything named to begin with "Mysteri---" ;x
Um.... that's a great comment... ;) I actually like their concept and name, but what's up with ZERO updates since their ICO??? That's just unnecessarily MYSTERIous!
Great insights! Just upvoted, resteemed, and following you. Look forward to reciprocating on each of our future posts if you're game!
Thank you, I am following you now
Solid article. Same thoughts here. Blockchain is here to stay, therefore we shouldn't look at what most people invest in but in the real quality projects, with great teams, management and a great product. Some people are still investing in "an idea". Is an Idea worth 100m+ USD to you? I found this great website: https://www.coincheckup.com An amazing crypto research site. They researched every single crypto out there. This is truly great.
