<p>Is there any website where I can find a comparison of different altcoins by features?</p>

<p>I'm not interested in hashrate, price, difficulty, but rather in implemented features such as:</p>

<ul>
<li>Used difficulty retargeting algorithm</li>
<li>Anonymous blockchain</li>
<li>Encrypted transaction network</li>
</ul>
