Title: What are the current promising altcoins that are worth to have?
Post by: Naster on July 30, 2017, 11:36:29 PM
Hello again,

Just wanted to ask the community what you think the current altcoins that are worth on investing on.
And Please I'd like to get reason on why you think they are worth getting.

XRP is my number one choice. 

Ripple already has deals with 75+ banks that have implemented some form of Ripple technology, and mainstream XRP usage is next on their list with the banks; when that happens, XRP could be used by the ... millions?  billions?  The daily transfer of SWIFT payments is measured in trillions, so it won't take much to supercharge demand for XRP.

I think Ethereum is going to face competition in the smart contracts space in the next year, so I am probably going to steer clear - most of the new alt coins that are doing ICOs mention smart contract capabilities.

Seriously, do we need another "what do I invest in" thread?  Just hit the search function or browse at most 4 pages back, and you'll find this question asked again and again.  You're not going to get any good information from anyone here.  Everyone is trying to stay one step ahead of everyone else, and the only thing you'll hear is coins people have bought and are looking to unload on the suckers.  That's it.

And if you invest in shitcoins, you're absolutely begging to have your money ripped from your greedy little hands.

Oh yeah, Dash is pretty good.   :o

The last part made me laugh! 

To your point; I think this cynical view was probably accurate until 2017.  Now it's obvious that the crypto space is starting to receive what it had been lacking for 4+ years: mainstream retail investing adoption.  Right now it's just starting. 

The entire market cap. is ~ 100 billion, give or take.

What the market will look like once retail adoption occurs is probably going to be closer to 1 trillion dollars.  We've got a long way to go, and I think going long is probably the only long-term strategy that makes sense after August 1st.
