Developer & Audit (Start: 5 Points)
Fibre [FIBRE] is lead by a developer named Chris (UK) aka Killakem. Chris has stated that his background in coding is mostly web development, VBScript and VB, but has been bringing himself up to speed on C++ purely so he can make informed decisions when it comes to release management. He states that Fibre is run like an enterprise IT department.
The second Developer is bobby6killers. Fibre Coin has also the Coinsource Certification
Marketing / PR & Community (Start: 5 Points)
Fibre coin did a nice Social Giveaway this month to produce a buzz and get the news about the coin out to the community. They send coins to over 1000 people manually. More information you can find here.
Fibre is active on Twitter, Facebook and Reddit.
Fibre Coin has two very active Marketing Managers with krushang and mxxxxxx. After talking to them in the IRC I know that they will release a Marketing Roadmap soon.
Moreover Fibre has a nice clear looking website where you can download the up-to-date wallets.
At this stage Fibre has not a lot of PR Activity ongoing.
At this stage the community of Fibre is not that strong compared to other coins because Fibre is quite new. But the community is healthy and there is no fud going around at Bitcointalk at the moment.
The community involvement is there and people are testing the Wallets and participating in the coming Fibreboard.
Innovation & Delivery (Start: 5 Points)
NIST5 The NIST5 algorithm combines the 5 finalists for the National Institute y’s SHA-3 hash competition
FIBREBOARD FibreBoard is a advisory board consisting of thirty community members. All major decisions will be voted on by the board.
HTML 5 Wallet - This will work any device with a brower. Mobile, tablet, mac etc etc. We already have the code, all thats required is block cypher.
Facebook Wallet - Just think of the potential with a Facebook fibre wallet. We will be able to reach a much wider audience.
ATM’s - Funded Multi Coin ATM’s in major city’s that accept Fibre. Something like this https://www.bitxatm.com/shop/bitxatm-sumo-pro/
FibreLight - A new coin using the Fibre base source code, with a much higher coin supply. There would have to be a small ICO to fund the further development of the Fibre group. Having a higher coin supply will allow Fibre to build Facebook and other games that allow you to win FibreLight.
Increased merchant acceptance - Fibre will be increasing their efforts to sign up merchants to accept Fibre.

What is a fair price in this crypto world?
No one really knows but we can look at similar coins and similar market caps. Moreover we can look at technical trading analysis.
With a marketcap of 218 BTC is today (14.09) on place 113. If Fibre gets near place 80 the price has to double from now on. If Fibre coin gets in the TOP 50 the price has to be nearly 6x of the current price. The current price is 30k-50K Satoshi which would mean a price of 100K is possible in the near future and a price of 300K Satoshi if Fibre gets under the TOP 50 Coins in the Crypto World.
To compare: Startcoin: 135 , Titcoin: 133 , Cinni: 112, Socialxbot: 109, Korecoin: 86, Librexcoin: 74, LTCDark: 56, Shadowcoin: 52, Cloakcoin: 50 , Viacoin: 21
Because Fibre coin is not in the Top 100 yet, the team is delivering and there are only 600K Coins I give Fibre a 7 from 8 in the Price category.
Fibrecoin is not 30 days on any big exchange and can only be traded on Bitrex at the moment. (Bittrex, Mintpal, Cryptsy, Bter)
Looking at some fundamentals we can see a market cap of 235 BTC and an available Supply of 624 thousand Fibre coins.
