Bitcoin Forum

Hello Guys,

I know its pure speculation but what do you guys think, which altcoins with growth potential like

1000x, 500x, 100x and what time frame?

I am planning to invest and forget, gonna invest money which I use for unproductive purposes like smoking, movies, binge shopping. Not much investment just pocket money. So I really dont mind if the money is lost also.

Regards,
Suhaib

Invest and forget has never worked for any crypto up to now in beating bitcoin returns  ;)

Ok, fair enough.. Which altcoins to invest now and when to exit and trade back to BitCoin :)?

there are so many altcoins that you can invest in and they can have a 100-500-1000 x rises and it has happened in the past too but they never do it in a long time. so forget about invest and forget as sandiman said. it usually takes a rather short time where they are pumped hard and then start dying because simply none of them has what it takes to rise like bitcoin.

X100 means if you invest $1000 now you will have $100,000. That would be a great call but projects with X10 growth can easily be found if you do your research very well.

lately i didn't see any altcoins who have very potential will growth 100x or even 1000x within a short time but if you want to invest maybe ICO coin will good for your options and there are several ICO coin at this forum if you interested just asking to the develover

Many thanks for the reply guys.. Bought small amounts of XRP, MaidSafe, NXT, NEM and SLR. Fingers crossed.. Hope for the best..

there are many altcoins that grow that much especially those cheap ones which smaller market size, for example they go from 300 satoshi to 3000 or sometimes even 20,000 satoshi price!


if you are going to just buy some random coins and cross your fingers to get lucky and maybe make profit maybe not i think you are better off gambling because the results would be the same :)

p.s. not saying what you bought are good or bad, just pointing out some facts.

Many thanks for the response, I know its a gamble. I just want to invest some pocket money and forget for 4-5 years. Would you be kind enough recommending something to this effect. Any altcoin offering real utility to users? I believe SLR do have potential... I wish either I make 1000x or lose all the money.. Ready to take risk.. Any cheap coins with smaller market cap that you may recommend? Thanking you in advance..

SLR started from a good idea, now it's just another scam that want to do everyhting. and we already told you that forget a coin doesn't work, for that you better buy bitcoin!

The only coin you can safely forget for 4-5 years and still make profit is BITCOIN - no altcoin is that safe.

When trading altcoins, there are times it is better to buy and sell quickly than to buy and hold especially when it is a "small coin".

bitcoin incrase up is the best
because early launch bitcoin price only one dollar, this now over 600 dollar, and highest price 1000 dollar(1000x)
this compare ethreum only 200k to 0,02 bitcoin
monero ico price 40k and highest price 0.02

so bitcoin still the best

If I were you, I would include Zcash, Zcash Classic, Monero and Ethereum as part of my investment mix in cryptocurrency. Of course, nothing is guaranteed in the very volatile world of altcoins. Nothing beats Bitcoin though.

if you are looking to invest your money and leave it be for 4-5 years then you should only think about Bitcoin as your investment and nothing else because bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that has a real potential of growth and reaching a high price because it is being used by many people as a currency for paying for services buying stuff online and in physical shops,...

if you look at the history of altcoins 4-5 years ago none of them had really done anything (with the exception of 2-3 coins) and none of them had came even close to bitcoin.

so if you want to invest in altcoins do it as a short term investment not long.

Stratis :)

I invested long term in XMR and the profit is by far higher then with BTC.  ???

that's short term, we are speaking about 4/5 years there  ;)

Even in that longer time span I expect XMR to rise more then BTC in %.
I see XMR reaching 21 USD easier then BTC going to 2100 USD for example (would equal a rise of 300% from now on).

I am not going to recommend any particular coin, just a piece of advice relevant for all of them.

If you pick a coin with say, 10% odds and store the coin at an exchange, the odds to ever take a profit are decimated. Don't care which coin, buy and withdraw to your own wallet. If you do not, you reduce however small odds to a tiny chance. You'll really be better off to spend this pocket money on beer and hookers if you don't withdraw to your own wallet.

this is one of the mistakes that usually people make with altcoins and it is a common one. because when you look at bitcoin and how it turned out to be you see it was worth less than $1 and then over time went up to 10-100-1000 dollars and you think this can be true about an altcoin.

but what you are forgetting is that bitcoin was the first, bitcoin is being used as currency and as investment, bitcoin has the most developers, and so many different things.

compared to altcoins, they are copycats, there is no usage, the development is either small or non-existant in some cases, and the main purpose of them is to pump and dump and  a p&d never goes that high because it lacks demand.

now best time to get some alt coins and make big profit...i make from jan and feb 2016 1000% on 2 coins and keep rise..;)
thx god i was smart and sale zcash at 2btc and now its 0.2 btc,LOL

1000% on two coins?
What two coins is this?

As mentioned in his signature,he has invested heavily in LEOcoin or i doubt he is the developer behind the coin and if you check the price it had a price increase and i am sure he has dumped all of his coins and earned a substantial profit :)

there is not and never will be an alt with bitcoin like growth potential. by saying that i mean coming up from nothing and staying up there.

there are certainly alts which will make as much if not more than bitcoin but it'll be short lived. buying an alt to forget about it is a crazy move. if you ride a pump and escape then you'll be on to a winner.

The term "alt" is losing its importance. ETH and XMR are not just an alternative to BTC, they are further developed versions of blockchain technology.
So yes you can invest and forget if you invest in a blockchain technology which has an active development and community.

Not to forget, that around 98-99% of the projects are useless BTC-clones with no additional value aka garbage.  ;D

I haven't looked much into crypto lately but I'd say Synero (AMP) could be a good investment. Though I wouldn't expect 100x ROI in a matter of months. Take this advise with a grain of salt btw, as the best course of action is to examine an altcoin by yourself and decide wether it is worth an investment or not. Another (faster) method is to participate in a pump&dump, but this is very risky and you'll probably end up deep in the red.

Agree good luck in future

why no'one suggestion zcoin here?

The closest altcoin that I can think of that might follow bitcoin's growth potential in value per coin is Monero. XMR now is slowly beginning to be accepted in the darknet marketplaces as a second choice if you do not want to use bitcoin. An economy behind a coin is the most important factor where it derives its value from. If the development team could figure out a way to scale XMR then you have a potential silver to bitcoin's gold. They say it is LTC but no, it never showed any signs that it was good enough.

I know some few coin that has a potential to make price pump in 1-4 years period. First of all, i want to gave you a few guide on determining it, First the coin must be fresh or have been an ICO lately, Then go for the project that have dividends and have good team devs. The best example of this coin is ICN, The devs are not in rush on developing it and they plan is for long term benefits of the coin holder. I know that this coin will be pump once the dividend is first distribute next year. SO it's up to you now if you want to bag some cheap ICN or regret next year for not buying some of it.

If the time now is like in the January 2016, then it is good to get some Ethereum. But things might have changed.

I think this time is suitable to buy ICN and Lisk, Lisk price has dropped recently and sure it will pump next year, as well as ICN which is increasing, some people say that ICN will follow the same road of Ethereum price.

FCT might be the best deal currently. It may rise in the future bcoz it has got potential....

None. I won't let you dream of something that will never happen, that would be nasty toward you. Bitcoin is unique and likely to be never replaced, whatever some people will say you. Your best bet for a big profit is to buy Bitcoin using fiat money and then hold it for a few years.

It seems the block size will not be increased soon as many people do not agree with the block size increase, so it might not be so useful in the future.

It appears that for the next few months Bitcoin block size will NOT be increased NOR SegWit activated, the latter is arguably an inefficient change to increase transaction capacity anyways.

This deadlock stalls Bitcoin adoption and gives more opportunity to alts to gain a larger market share. Some of them have interesting changes coming in the pipeline and will use this opportunity to get a brighter spot under the cryptocurrency sun.

I totally agree if you look at the marketcap some coins are growing in terms of price chart and community adoption,I still believe Bitcoin is still the best crypto currency in the market but we have a technology that keeps changing I'm looking at Burst,they seems to have a big potential in the market.

No one could really exceed on bitcoins place now and you are right there are altcoins which do have new technology and feature and might surpassed bitcoin on longer runs but still depends because  bitcoin is too far away from them and just looking only at the marketcap.I do have high hopes for XMR in my own opinion but actually there are lots of potential altcoins.

nothing can compete with bitcoin so far and even if there is a potential, that potential still needs to be found first.

but anyways it has been a couple of months that i have been hearing about Monero and keep seeing its price showing very healthy buy support behind it and the anonymity that it offers is one of the most wanted features these days. all of these can lead to potentially big price rises.

there's no argument regarding to bitcoin because its already established his popularity, the best thing regarding to alt before you really place your investment is knowing who's beyond the back of certain project and how the project road plan been implemented i think monero really shows good future to have as fluctuation keeps on moving ups and down like btc.

What is price expectations of AMP Synereo for year end ? Worth to buy for few weeks ? Masters have any idea about Dec 31 price of AMP ?
