Bitcoin Forum

So we have been hearing this for quite a while now and most of us are of the opinion that bitcoin is one to HODL.

What about altcoins?
Which ones do you think are worth HODLing? (Really long term: 5+ years at least)

alt like like king, you can keep classic etc, i am sure fate etc will be like LTC and zcoin. they are great.

Definitely only few coins can exit in long term and will be profitable;
Ethereum
Ethereum Classic
Monero
Litecoin
Dash
Ripple

Are few coins which are good to hold for next 5 years or more along with bitcoin.

I think coins that are very worth hodling are ethereum, waves, ripple and ltc. These alts are worth to hodl and if in doubt you can make your own checking in which coins the worth to invest.

Ripple, waves, Ethereum classic, ethereum, litecoin, BTC, BCH, DGB, Verge ;D

Why are so many saying LTC. Charlie Lee sold his position and also said that if you cant live with that ltc dropps down back to 20$ don't buy it. I'm not so sure that it's a good longterm hold. Only stating the facts. So for me No ltc like the other once. Maybe I'm wrong.

I think! All coin in top #100 on coinmarketcap can buy and hold to invest! But you can choice altcoin you like to invest! No body known exactly where is the best coin to invest! Gook lucky!

In 5 years maybe those coins about which we know will not be any more. There will be something else and I would have ruled out so long.

Stratis
If you're not into Stratis, you're doing something wrong in my opinion

Inspired by the past 10/10 success, we decided to again form a list of 10 coins with the guys from our private chat room, which can now be bought in the short or medium term.
You can buy coins at the current price, but now the market out of the global correction and viola can sink heavily, so ideally the following coins are better to buy on kickbacks. Take-profit +20% .. + 100% (depending on what nasoklko successfully bought)

STRAT. Perfect purchase below 0.000763
GRS. Ideal purchase below 0.000101
ADA. Perfect purchase below 0.0000219
VTC. Perfect purchase below 0.000391
PIVX. Perfect purchase below 0.000665
BAY. Perfect purchase below 0.0000108
WAVES. Perfect purchase below 0.000735
ZEN. Perfect purchase below 0.00223
SYS. Perfect purchase below 0.0000375
PAY. Perfect purchase below 0.000225

i plan to hodl this one: https://www.viberate.io/ and i sugest you to do the same

Ethereum, litecoin, monero, verge, IOTA these are just some that can go on to be absolutely huge in the future, think bitcoins current market cap kind of big if the conditions work out to be favourable for them. There are so many good alts that you can hold.

Bitcore (BTX) , has been going under the radar for a while, released months before bcash and best fork specs, get it cheap while you can.

Etherium
Dash
Litecoin
Ripple
Monero

also maybe:
Waves
Nem
Bitcoin cash
Zcash
Zerocoin
Vertcoin
EOS
Neo
Qtum

Coins, which can now be bought in the short or medium term.

And for 5 years so I would look in the direction of these coins:
Ethereum
Ethereum Classic
Waves
IOTA

Alts to hodl long time are Neo, BTX, DeepOnion, Bancor, Ethereum, Waves, Ripple, Stratis, EOS, Verge, EMC2...

Only alts that are proven and in the top 25. Outside the top 25 you have to be sure that the tech is good, community is good, and their use case is good. Inside the top 25 generally all those conditions have been met which makes them easier to HODL for that 5 years you want.

i agree mate bitcoin is good investment even if hard to predict when is come goes up and down the price in the market but hodling bitcoin is very profitable. i heard also from many speculation and predection for altcoin pumping in the next year i choose and start buying now alts.

Eth is quite good and also litecoin. Both has proved to be growing for that past year, so 5 years is gonna be awesome for these coins. Ripple is quite interesting, they always make a scene when they surge. Many people are supporting xrp now. I believe nxt is quite a good catch too. I can see it has increased in value like 4 folds. These are the coins i'm holding right now. And i believe they will hodl worthy. 👍

VTC, XDN, ADA, XSPEC, ONION

Against what many are saying here my opinion is as follows:

Deep Onion - The one true privacy oriented coin (operates over the TOR network)
ELTCOIN - A great community coin which has a solid dev team
Humaniq - has a real world application which is in use in Africa
Dragonchain - Developed by Disney and is gearing up for a solid future
Ethereum - I don't need to explain
Neo - Chinese ethereum, smart contracts etc etc
Hawala - Has a solid whitepaper and plan, want to try and bridge the gao with cash and crypto
EOS - Unlimited transactions a minute due to asynchronous loading
Omise Go - already has partnerships with the likes of McDonalds
Kin - Created by Kik messenger and when they implement it fully will no doubt rocket
Mingo - An app which will unify all social messagin apps

I know there are quite a few there but I have my reasons and those are the coins I value most personally.

Yeap. Stratis is a good coin. In the next year (q1) they announced the first ico on their blockchain

I dont think I can hold that much of a time.
Maybe if it was promising that the service will get better and better or the usage of its own coin will be implemented widely.
It is hard to look for investors that have that kind of patience to wait for 5 years.
I can go six months but not that far when it comes to altcoins. But with bitcoin it is a yes.

ETH, WAVES, ADA, ONION, XRP, NEO

If you would like to invest for a long time, you consider those coins that have in low price but it have a huge volume. Because it have a huge chances to pump any time rather than those who are having a market already.

All coins from top10 list. It took them a year to get there and they won't go anywhere next year or two

no shit sherlock.. you are probably got them for free since you are working for VIB.

I think alt coin is very dependent on bitcoin, if bitcoin is expensive then altcoin will automatically be very cheap, and if bitcoin is cheap then altcoin will be expensive.

Altcoin For long term i go in ethereum , litecoin , verge , digibytes and ripple
after the release of universa and envion you should hold some also

I think 5 years is a very good long term period, and after the bitcoin, my decide would be ethereum. After of these, maybe I would think about ripple or litecoin.

my top 5 altcoin for 2018 are:
> BTC (Bitcoin)
> LTC (Litecoin)
> ETH (Ethereum)
> IOTA
> NEO ( NEO which is known before as Antshare)
 
these are my top altcoins to be pick and HOLD for a long time of period
i believe on the Project of these all , and i believe this will take flight sooner
and will be next great deal next to Bitcoin, some of the Coins i mentioned
are old time coin next to BTC such as LTC and ETH this two are far better than
Bitcoin in terms of many ways but not on price surely Bitcoin would be the King
for he is the first root of all cryptocurrency without him nothing exist also
for all concept of digital currency came to Bitcoin.

im considering holding all of this for 4 to 5 years or longer of  time.

Still do your own research for the some of the altcoin, these is solely my Opinion and
Observation on these coins for the past few months of development of every coin.

VTC, XMR, REQ,XLM and Onion are a few of my chosen ones.

I think following altcoins are to good for HODL 5 years or Longterms.

Waves
Binance
Xrp
Ark
Stellar Lumins
Ethereum Classic
Sia coin
Sys coin
Next coin
Electronium

I think Ethereum, Ripple and Monero are good altcoins and have the potential for the long term. maybe the potential will start to look next two years starting next year

Haha Yeah! Stratis is the Best for mid term/long term project at the moment, The price still pretty cheap. I cant wait for this Giant wake up in 2018  

I have Altcoin but not much, I've kept it for a few months because the price is down and today when I see the price chart go up, the forecast is like throwing rocks into a tree with lots of fruit, Can hit or vice versa.
If the product he made increases, I think altcoin can also be selected

There are many Alt coins to HODL . You just have to research which is the best one and cheaper because it depends on your budget also. XRP, LEND, PRL are good alt coins to Hodl.

There many option of altcoin to hodl and my opinion one of them is POWR, ETH, DASH, OMG, ETH, DATA, AION. All these coin has strong in fundamental and the price will increasing in 2018. Because they has strong team founder and unique project.

Firstly the obvious few ones like ETH and XMR. Then IOTA, which is looking really promising. Then I would like to hold roadblocks, past few days it's gaining immense popularity, but well I'll have to first buy it to hodl it.

altcoins to hold for about 5 years and above, for me i would choose ethereum, Litecoin, Monero and BCH. i think these four altcoins ive choose will last or we can call it a long term investment program with a better profits results in the future, why ? because like bitcoin, these altcoins ive mentioned has a potential to grow, and they are all convenient to use, but the problem is they are all constantly slow pumping every time i checked theyre price. but im surly no doubt that they are all going to more successful in the future.

for me i just hold my ethereum and Aion. and also ICON (ICX) the price is already hit 60x of ICO price.
you can still buy Aion if you're too late for buying ICON

I have some ICOs to be holding for long time maybe around 1 up to 5 years later, they are truckcoin and EOS my reasons hold them for long because in my personal analysis fundamental of them, they are good projects based on the aspects of fundamental and they has big chance to be more expensive in the future and right now the price of then still can be called as cheap, so i could made investment into them with small amount of money and large of money, i don't guarantee they will be sucessfull in the future but based on the price of ICO token that always increase every time, why not they will be booming couples years later.

I would suggest that you pick altcoins that are associated to a real product and not just a.n.other random coin. Companies with a real product solution will truly have something of worth to support the value of their coin. I am holding CTR (Centra) they have an 8 currency debit card issuing worldwide and spendable anywhere with a Mastercard symbol.

A lot of people had been asking this question. But I'll answer it again. If you're thinking of a long term hold, then my money is on the following: ETH, NEO, EOS, XMR, LTC. These coins has a lot of potentials and a good investment of the moment since the price is not that high, yet. IOTA looks good, too. But I haven't invested on it, yet. Maybe soon.

For short term hold (ones I used for trading), I use AION, VTC, and SALT. I have earned quite a lot from trading these coins.

The first Cryptocurrency to calculate to invest is Ripple. We know what happened a few days back bitcoin prices declined and so did the altcoin others such as ethereum and bitcoin cash decreased, but not for Ripple, even ripple increased prices. Because i understand the advantages of this coin is its value is not affected by rumours and speculation.
And the second coin is ethereum, when looking at coinmarketcap ethereum position is in the second position. I think ethereum is the best coin after bitcoin and has a great potential ethereum price in the future will rival the bitcoin price. One example that the high ethereal nutrient in the future is its ICO payment project using ethereum.

In my opinion, eos, bnb, are the most promising Alts, I begin to buy them 1 month ago, and the have brought much profit for me, and will continue.

In my case I'm holding all the coins I got from the signature bounty campaign because I have a good full-time job as an overseas worker. I'm lucky having a company and a job that let's me do the bounty campaigns requirements in my spare time.

I have Oyster Pearl PRL, BM Chain, Worldcore and Clout tokens and I'm gonna hold them as long as I can because I know these coins will make me rich in the future.

As a fellow bounty campaign participant, most of us are having coins that has no yet value so we have no choice but to hodl until they're are valuable currency. I have coins that already have good values, some of them are really jaw dropping values but some of them are just sitting in my wallet.
I'm gonna hold them all until time will come if I'm in need of money badly.

I think that you need to invest in those alts that are supported by experienced developers. It has been understood that not only the product itself and its idea are important but also how it is promoted. just hodl ethers

Highly recommend the following ALTs being a strong buy and HODL for 2018. I

1) POWR - Energy industry

2) XRP - the Best payment solution in crypto

3) DRGN - DAPP capable coin

4) PRG - great utility coin for Cannabis

5) CAN - Freelancer work platform coin

I've invested in these coins and feel they will change my life in 2018

Buy something that s going to be used in daily life in the future like DENT,ETHOS,FACETER ,AITHEON,VECHAIN,ICX,ETH,LISK,WAVES.....

Ethereum
Litecoin
Cardano
NEO
Monero and
NEM
There will be a big jump in the middle of this year and the NEO will start first representing other altcoins and that happens after Bitcoin has a more serious increase.

personally i hold

DeepOnion and oxycoin.

I am not holding that Deeponion coin or the other coin because they look like they can scam somebody. I only invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum.

I do not quite agree, there are projects that you really want to hold for a long time, but there are also those about which you say to get profit and sell

OMG NEO DGPT are all ones that im going to HODL  ::) ::) ::)

I still recommend ethereum, because we know ethereum is a strong altcoin for the last few years, it would be wise if we keep ethereum for the next 5 years

Definitely these are coins that have already taken root in the real sector. Because with the growth of the market and their capitalization and scope of application will only expand. Therefore, the BTC, ETH, LTC, NEO can be safely taken

My only long time hold is eos. I think it's the only other platform able to create an economically incentivized ecosystem similar to how the Ethereum Enterprise Alliance worked out for ethereum. Got in really early, it's my best performing investment, so far.

Now ethereum and most of alts started dumping in the market. If you want to invest your money on making purchase for cryptos with the fiat cash you have. Please read the coinmarketcap entities. I am sure you can easily choose the coin whatever you want.
Confirm me what are all the coins you have invested so far. I will see the NEO, NEM, RIPPLE shows the good growth in the market.
In next 5 years, you will see the ethereum as 5k USD at least. This is my least speculation value mate.

Ethereum
Ripple
Litecoin
Neo
Cardano
Monero
Nano

I think if Ethereum and Cardano (ADA) are highly recommended for investment in a very long time
because I think both coins use a technology system that will develop further in the future and then it will benefit a lot for its users
I am sure for both altcoin is feasible if for HODLING (long term)

5 years is a long time for HODLING, in which case I would not buy tokens, only coins with their platform.
for example, eos, Credits, zil.

Safer ones are definitely from top 100 but also the returns could be much smaller. I would advise you to take some well-known coins mixed with some top100+ coins. The last one mentioned could really net you some serious profit.

that's a long time, then you should really choose coins that will have growth instead of coins that continue to decline, the first coin is clear ethereum because it can be ascertained this coin will always evolve. the second is the coin NEO, the third is Ripple and the last one in my opinion is Cardano (ADA). it is a potential coin of my version.

Gas,Neo,Strat this are good in investing because they only drop 7% in market after that they grow a lot

Use also NANO and XRP but I recommend this for small money only because of the so volatile price

Do invest also in the alts that promote in faucets I'm sure it will go grow because of that move

Only old output altcoins is suitable to hold for a long period time, example:
- Ethereum
- Ethereum Classic
- Litecoin
- ZCoin
- Monero and any more
but don't hold the latest altcoin that is not clear the roadmap.

For me the first on the list of altcoins who has a potential to grow in the future is Ethereum. This is based only on my opinion. Look, Ethereum have so many demand now. Its price is second to bitcoin. And that will make Eth have a potential in growing or most profitable or worth holding for years. Its price is in a dip now but it will recover soon. Just hold eth and be rich. :)

I hope to grow ripple and eth in the future, it is very unpredictable to choose a coin for holding.

I prefer to those altcoins that are capable to stay and rise higher in the future like ethereum, neo, dash, monero and iota. I really believe that they will soar so high in the future. Best to invest at them now while price at the market is at low because for sure we can get good profits at them later.

I have never been a fan of hodling for too long any altcoin. Let's be honest, most of us are involved in this business looking for big profits and very few are interested in the technological development and innovations that each altcoin can bring to the economic field. Therefore I believe that we should not fall in love with any altcoin and sell it as soon as we reach sufficient profitability before switching to a new coin.

I'm holding way too many alts right now, but some of the ones I really like for the next bull run:  COSS, Neo, Ontology, Icon, Zilliqa, Dash.

I keep power ledger.Very legitimate project great devs and token is really utility token
They have just launched his platform for alternative energy p2p trading
Team is very active power ledger is included in electric cars project in silicon valley

Stellar is my number 1 alt coin to hold.  Try using the platform, it is so fast and user friendly, there are a lot of advantages over ethereum and projects are already starting to use it.

For me the question is not suitable now.
This is the time nor for to hold. this is the season to ask WHICH ALTS TO BUY MORE?
this is the elimination season, it came yearly and as of now, gathering strong alts is the best thing to do.
