“Based on our ratings model, which considers each coin’s investor risk and reward plus technology and adoption fundamentals, coins with a Weiss Cryptocurrency Rating of D- or lower include the following 12:

Auraracoin (D-), Comet (E-), Electroneum (E+), Expanse (E), Gulden (D-), Matchpool (E), Magacoin (E-), Novacoin (E), PotCoin (D-), Quark (E-), Rise (D-) and SaluS (E-).

On the Weiss Ratings scale (from A to E), D is described as “weak,” and E is “very weak.” The plus and minus signs indicate the upper and lower third of each grade range, respectively.”

Gottcha, so they're looking at the projects as a whole. The fundamentals are bad for these projects is what I gather. Bad teams or poor ideas. Cool, that helps me out some. Thanks!
