I want to make the important suggestion that "next generation"-coins like NXT belong on the second page where Ripple is.
The are not mined, so they are very different and a lot of people will call them premined (they call them self as "minted" to not sound so negative)
In the NXT info Thread it isnt clear. So potential users could feel tricked later.
Also NXT could be buyed only on its own exchange.
Also Mastercoin and Copperlark are in the same class when i understood it correct.
If not correct me please.

COMPLETELY disagree with this. NXT works completely different than PoW coins like Bitcoin, it's PoS.
Premining does not apply to PoS coins and people need to stop thinking that. We don't call it "minted" to make it not sound negative, we call it "minted" because none of the coins are mined, they were PAID for by stakeholders. Each stakeholder had a maximum stake of 1 BTC
INCLUDING the developer.
NXT is not a copy-cat coin like most of these coins, the code isn't even a fork of Bitcoin, it's pretty much in a league of it's own.
Peer-coin is probably the closest thing to it.
Before you try to undermine this coin, please inform yourself on how it actually works. Also X68N, we'd appreciate if you'd stop trolling the NXT threads, we're gaining support from many trusted members of the community who actually know a thing or two about PoS and cryptocoins in general.
