How many altcoins do you hold? How many altcoins are too many?
I have 12 altcoins in my portfolio. I like all of them,  but I am thinking about consolidating down to my 5 favorites.

I only have 6 altcoins on my entire portfolio (without counting Bitcoin) so yes, i ownly have a little altcoins in there, but they are good enough for me and i think that they are the best ones out there.
So i do not need more at the moment  :)

It seems I am the odd one...it fluctuates but on average I maintain around 35 coins.

I have my reasons (right or wrong) and it works for me.  Good profit/return is what matters to me (not what others say). ;)

Since mid December 2017 to this day, I only have 5 altcoins, 4 altcoins under $ 1, and the other above $ 1:
Nxt 30%,
Electroneum 20%,
DigiByte 20%,
Bytecoin 20%, and
Ethereum 10%.

I hope, these five altcoins will have significant growth, for the coming month of February.

Now I only have 3 which is XRP, TRX and ETH since most of my altcoin have been sold. I think it is better to cutloss for some coins that hasn't have the good probability of bouncing back, because unlike the current coins I am holding are struggling like never before.

In order to reduce the risks of investing I keep 15 coins in my portfolio for long-term storage. But sometimes I buy some more coins for day trading.

I am doing exactly the same right now, but the only problem is that most part of those altcoins are just shit coins, i think that i really need to clean up my entire portfolio, since it is a huge mess. Anyway, the most solid ones are in there.

I hold too many altcoins. But if you hold many altcoins you can not dive deep into any coin. This is not good, but is also has advantages, because you sell less and hodl stronger this way.

I only hold a few altcoins that in my oppinion have the most potential to grow, unless you have more than 40k at least spreaded over altcoins in order to gain you are better off investing in maximum 3 of the best projects, spreading your portfolio is only good with big amounts of money, do not believe people claiming to spread your portfolio with less than 40k because you will not see a good amount of profit, rather invest in 3 altcoins with biggest potential and hodl it!
My portfolio:
-VEN
-GVT
-ICX
Wanchain is also a very good project and on the moment it hits on exchanges less than $3 is a very good buy.
As allways please do your own research.

Good advise (on the money) and good coin choices.   I am heavy on ICX and VEN.  Checked GVT just because you mentioned it and it looks promising and in a good entry point. ;)

Many question why I have 35 coins....maybe they thought I only have a few thousand dollars invested. :D

I hold a small amount of many coins, because I tend to keep 5 or 10% when I sell an altcoin to lock in the profit.

I do the same...but keep 20%-50% on most as much as possible (most are pure profit too).  There were a few I totally sold just because I lost confidence in them.

And I believe in altcoins. A few days ago I bought 20 different coins, which I will keep for several months or years. I believe that this will bring me a very big profit.

I have similar but I try to lower my number. Usually I'm okay with less than 10 coins in my portfolio.
When you find big rally you would have majority of your money in that coin. It's good in wins but bad in losses though.

I never counted how many different coins in my portfolio. But I know for sure that if there are a lot of them, it is difficult to track every coin. Therefore, there should not be more than 15-20 different coins in the portfolio.

I have 4 altcoins and I try to hold 4 altcoins at most.
My portfolio:
1) Ethereum
2) Game
3) OAX
4) REBL

I hold those coins and I belive that in 1 year they will make 4x at least.

I have a lot of altcoins ind  dofferent exchanges site. I have 30 altcoins as of now I hold.  Some of them are for longterm and others is for short term.  Most of my altcoin that I have If I sell it I'll make a good profit but I decided to hold it more so I can get more profit and that's my favorite coin also.  For my shorterm if I see I gain profit I sold it now to earn money so I can earn everyweek.  For sure brcause they have a lot of coins upcoming in the market my collection of altcoin will increase because for sure if I see the potential I will buy that.  For sure other trader have 50 altcoins plus so that's why they earn a lot of profit.

I have more coin hold for the future income all those coins has a big possibility to increase its value based on the news in their project. Like XRP and TRX these coins will make some noice this year and hoping all of us have this since the value is still cheaper.

And for long term holding i have ethereum, waves and ETC.

It's good to hear that, maybe in the next few months i can have altcoins to hold too and it is always in my dream on this crypto world. I know that holding altcoins and selling it on the right time can help me to fulfill my dreams come true. Altcoins in crypto world motivates me to be always active and studios online to change my financial status into better.

I currently holding one altcoin in my wallet called SXDT, and i don't know if that token good for long term hold. But if i have a chance to hold some token, i want to hold Ethereum, Neo and Ripple as my altcoin to hold for a long term.  Anyways, i've been joined some bounties right now to get their token and i'm hoping that it will be succesful.

I have 12 altcoins in my portfolio. I like all of them,  but I am thinking about consolidating down to my 5 favorites.
It may better to decrease your portfolios to all of your favorite altcoins. But i have a lot of altcoins and it's worth almost 2 million dollars right now. But i still keep them all and i just try to manage all of my assets through blockfolio. Please decrease your portfolio into some altcoins and you will be so easily to manage all of your portfolio.

5 TRX(tron)

10 is the enough amount to hold and dont hold too many altcoin because it will make you more confuse.
Pick 5 or 7 favorite altcoin from the top marketcap and 3 from ico project. Sometime ico project can give us very high profit.

wow how could you monitor the altcoins you have invested, it will takes you so hard to search for informations to sell when the price pumped or dumped. a wise move now is not to invest in too many altcoins, it will distract you from work, instead, invest only in maximum 5 altcoins, that will help you have more time to analyse and prepare for the best situation to sell when the price get high enough.


Title: Re: How many altcoins do you hold?
Post by: RoooooR on January 24, 2018, 05:28:30 AM
Most likely less that 10 but i always rely on the situation of market, i just so to it that i always observe balance and proportion in my portfolio. I don't only come in into big or already established coins, but also getting observant to the value of low value coins but coins with high potential when it comes to business and fundamentals.

I bet OP is a long-term holder that's why he can manage all those 12 coins which is possible. But if you're a trader holding those coins will just give you a headache like you need tons of computer monitor so you can keep track all of those.

Personally, I just have 3 alts like eth, pillar and monaco and of course bitcoin which a must in every traders portfolio.

Not that many, I already sold most of them when they were at peak, only have ETH mainly for altcoins and some that I can't let go because I don't want to cut loss.
How many altcoins are too many?
More than 1 is considered as many.
I have 12 altcoins in my portfolio.
That's a lot, what are they?
I like all of them,  but I am thinking about consolidating down to my 5 favorites.
This is what I did and now focusing into some major altcoins.
Here's my list for altcoins that I hold;
1. ETH
2. LTC
3. DGB
4. XMR
Still planning to add some when I had enough to invest again.

exactly. I hold little over 10 and it still seems too much and it's little difficult to keep up with all of them. I had little over 15 but I'm slowly cutting back as some of them offer same thing.

I hold 80% of my assets in Ethereum and NEO. Here are 2 altcoin that I estimate that will grow best in this 2018 and future. Both of them have good technical background and community supporters, many ICO projects are developed on ETH and NEO platforms which is why I buy many ETH and NEO because I will use the money That is to invest in the upcoming ICO projects that I will join.

I own 14 altcoin in my portofolio, most of them are new projects less than 1 year old so i will wait until 5 more months before deciding what will i hold and which one i will sell. I think it's not too many as long as you follow the project closely. If you can follow it anymore then you have too many alts in your portofolio.

I'm spread out evenly in the following 7 alts (up 750% in my portfolio since late October):

ELASTIC

RUBYCOIN

BITCRYSTALS

GRIDCOIN

STARTCOIN

EVERGREENCOIN

FLORINCOIN

Besides these, which I have invested in on Bittrex, I'm HODLing all air drop coins I'm collecting for at least 2-3 years because I'm convinced were still in the very early innings of a massive bull market in crypto-currencies.

I'm not a big investor (500$) - I'm just doing it "for fun" and learning but:
- ETH
- ADA
- WAVES
- PRL
- ELIX

By mining:
(- ETH)
- SUMO
- PASL (exchange down for now)
I like ETH and ADA on your list and I'm still investing in 2 coin. But I think that with the $ 500 capital divided into so many coin, your profit will be very low. I think with a little money you should only monitor and invest in 2 to 3 coin only, that is reasonable amount so you can track and catch in time.

Right now I am holding 8 altcoins in my portfolio. I don't really think I would be able to keep a close enough watch over all of them if I were to add much more to it.

How many altcoins do you hold? How many altcoins are too many?
I have 12 altcoins in my portfolio. I like all of them,  but I am thinking about consolidating down to my 5 favorites.
wow how could you monitor the altcoins you have invested, it will takes you so hard to search for informations to sell when the price pumped or dumped. a wise move now is not to invest in too many altcoins, it will distract you from work, instead, invest only in maximum 5 altcoins, that will help you have more time to analyse and prepare for the best situation to sell when the price get high enough.

I bet OP is a long-term holder that's why he can manage all those 12 coins which is possible. But if you're a trader holding those coins will just give you a headache like you need tons of computer monitor so you can keep track all of those.

Personally, I just have 3 alts like eth, pillar and monaco and of course bitcoin which a must in every traders portfolio.

Yes, I am a long term holder (1-3 years). I will decide when to sell based on how my coins perform and if predictions show the coin increasing more in value. i use cointracker.info to keep track of my coins. The reason for many coins is I got into many of them at low cost, so all profit right now. I expect 5x-10x profit overall by end of 2018.

I holding about 50 coins/tokens for year or two. Some of them waves, eos, strat im going to keep longer . But i have one very strict rule - when the coin from the portfolio hits the 200-300% , i fix the 40-50% percent of holdings, so i get my investment and profit back and other part is like a prize, i can keep that very long already without the risks. ( i got back my money, that i spent for purchase)

Good thing to know you can manage to hold your portfolio. 50 coins to observe are quite interesting and you had a time management for it. I usually had a 10 coins in my portfolio due to if more than this I cannot have time to observe their growth in each coin in the market.

I hold about 100 altcoins. I've invested in 20 that I truly believe in. I also try to receive as many airdrops as possible to flip back into BTC/ETH. Good luck!

started out with the usual suspects- BTC, ETH, LTC
traded off a lot (but not all) of those for XRP, XVG, XLM
bought a few TRUMP to impress the boss
bought some LINDA to impress an aunt
bought some CRPT tokens in the hopes of some growth and profit
I  CPU mine XMR, DSH, BCN and XDN on MG. small amounts (of course) just for the experience
Last and certainly not least, my favorite... ONION to have and to hodl til death do us part.

I have really a lot of altcoins, because I believe that altcoins has the future since they are still undervalued compare to some coin that are in top 10, some are already has the high price, I know altcoins will get to the top and that is really good investment, specially long term.

12 altcoins is too much
better you decrease your altcoins with maximum is 10, and better less than 10
because i think collect too many altcoins is risky

Currently I just hold one Altcoin only. I have no money to invest and I'm not too brave to invest in Altcoin. I just dare to invest into Bitcoin because I think Bitcoin is best crypto and have a fast price increase. But now we all know that the Bitcoin fee is very high and I'm afraid it will get taller in the future. So I prefer Altcoin and switch to Ethereum. Now Ethereum is not only the best Altcoin but also the best crypto to invest. I hope I can collect Bitcoin and Ethereum as much as possible for this year so that all my dreams can come true. I hope I can get a good job to collect the more crypto I want.

I dont hold any crypto at the moment, it is just not worth it at the moment. Although when i did have crypto i only had around $50 worth at the most.

My favourites were LBRY and Monero, Lbry is the next decentralised media sharing platform with their own protocol and actually have a working product while monero is completely private and anonymous

Currently i am holding 6 coins. They are all long term coins. I don’t like to trade on a daily basis so i would keep my coins till they reach their peak. I have tron , lend, espers  etc.. I am really hopeful for these three coins. Expecting them to bring me a good return.

Is espers really worth holding as long term? It's new to my ears, in my portfolio I am holding just 5 coins. Plr, eth, neo, wrc, and ltc. I dont store more altcoins in my portfolio to ease my monitoring daily.

Currently, I am holding 0.1 BTC, 500 DOGE, and 300 BCN. These are all crypto I hope the exchange rate will rise sharply in 2018, although the current price of cryptos on the market is showing signs of decline. Tao intends to hold for six months until the x2 rate from now; then I will sell all the coins.

How many altcoins do you hold? How many altcoins are too many?
I have 12 altcoins in my portfolio. I like all of them,  but I am thinking about consolidating down to my 5 favorites.

As of now, I'm only holding 13 alt coins. Which came from different bounty campaigns and airdrops. Some of them are good and have huge or great amount. And while the other are all shit coins to be honest.Since, I am only a beginner, I'm planning to buy and hold different alt coins that have potential to increase this coming third quarter to fourth quarter of the year.

It seems I am the odd one...it fluctuates but on average I maintain around 35 coins.

I have my reasons (right or wrong) and it works for me.  Good profit/return is what matters to me (not what others say). ;)

By the way, 35 coins doesn't include the airdrops or anything less than $250 worth.

i have about 40-50 altcoins in my portfolio. And the main condition is to hold  in bitcoin about 40-50 % of their investment. It seems to much, but believe me that s really working strategy. When the BTC grows up at most cases Altcoins go down and there is the possibility to buy more cheap altcoins using BTC. When the BTC  falls - altcoins fall  much faster and again you have the chance to make profitable deal.

YEP!  I agree 100%.

I admit that my goal for BTC is a bit lower (20%) and frankly I haven't been able to maintain it...the temptation to buy alts recently is too much for me to resist.  It will be easier once I reached my goal $$$$$$.  :D  As a testament to your wisdom, I've missed many good buying opportunities recently because I depleted my BTC holdings (as low as 2%  :-[ ).

Ultimate plan is to be around; 60% long term HODL, 25% mid-term and 15% short term (flip/play coins).
