I think Stellar Lumen coin XLM showin on coinmarketcap will do well in the future. Although I have not invested in Stellar Lumen coin but I was able to get a few for free on their second air drop for Bitcoin holder. This coin grew well right after IBM had some kind of a contract with them and is in the top coinmarketcap for a while.
