I did filter top 400-500 so you don't have to.

Hi.

Like many of you, I have the majority of my portfolio from the top 100. But from time to time I do like to put a few bucks into some lesser-known projects, you know, hidden gems, best-kept secrets, etc. I did realize that every time I do an assessment if it's not completely moronic to invest in a particular project/coin, I am coming back and forth so many times, because I am forgetting what it is, what's the max supply, etc. That led me to make my own excel chart with Top 500 in which I filtered all the stuff that didn't pass my check. So I decided to share that with you and save you some tenths or hundreds of clicks.

So how did I filter the top 400-500? I removed all this:

• no meme coins and also coins with HODL, SAFE, MOON etc in their name
• no stablecoins, no wrapped coins, no exchange related coins
• no coins where I couldn't find any decent info about the team behind them
• no coins where top 10 holders own more than 90% of the total circulating supply
• no coins where I couldn't verify how much top 10 holders own
• no NFT's, collectibles etc
• no projects without a working website

For me, all that above are RED FLAGS. I did not evaluate if the coins/projects have their own apps, wallets, audit, mainnet etc, because some of them are X years old and some of them are 2021, so that wouldn't be fair. I would personally remove even those projects that are more than 90% low than their ATH considering them walking dead, but left them there for you. I would stay away from those zombies.

Age of the project and exchange listing.

Yes means that the project is listed on at least one of these exchanges: Coinbase, Binance, Kraken

PS: of course, I am just a dumbass who doesn't understand money, so this is not advice at all. Just top 500 trimmed down. Maybe your criteria are completely different and in that case, this is useless for you, but I believe there are many people here who can save some time with this.

PS2: I am tired.

PS3: if you want, I could do the same with the top 300-400. I guess I will just wait to see what will be the response.

PS4: of course, this is what I filtered. That doesn't equal being a good project or a great investment opportunity. DYOR.
