If you had 5 ETH, where would you invest for long-term 2 years hodl benefit?

if I have 5 eth in the next few years I will invest Eth itself, and I take half of my Eth to invest to some altcoin among them: NEO, XLM and LTC, if possible I will also invest to Btc, but if fund I have not enough, then I will choose altcoin earlier, this is my hope if I have 5 Eth

I will not hold 5 Ethereum for 5 years. This is what I would do , I will look for five good projects and invest 1 Ether into one each. So anytime time any of the project do 2x I will sell half and retain half in the project, this way I have 5 Ethers and investment in 5 other projects

In bitcoin.

If  I had 5 eth, I would continue to hold them because most people have sold their ethereum for ico tokens, if they hold their ethereum they would make more money. Ethereum will be more profitable and it is safe investment.

of course, i will hold my 5 ethereum for the next 2 years, if i have 5 eth now my friend
i believe within 2 years the price of eth will growing hardly  ;)

I would definetely invest it in oax because it is really great project, but not all of the eth in one coin for sure, I probably also add decentraland and stakenet and invest in few good ico.

I believe in cheaper coins like DCN, DGB, DOGE because a double-digit increase in numbers is already very profitable.
suitable for long term trading, you just have to carefully select a trusted exc to trade.

Choose Apex or Gladius. These altcoins will still show themselves in the near future. In General, I would advise you to invest in a good ICO

i will hold three of my ethereum,
then i will buy another coin maybe waves with the 2 of my ethereum

of course I would choose investing in ethereum (ETH) in part, and partly I invest by looking for altcoin that has good potential.

If I have 5 ethereum in my wallet I will hold it for few years because I think the price become ten thousands dollars and up after 2-3 years and if that happen I make more profit  and I will not buy altcoins using my ether but if I have extra money more I buy some more altcoin and ethereum again.

I advice you to just invest some of it into at least 2-3 erc20 tokens with potential like Cardano(it is just an example so don't take this as as potential coin) but before investing, you should do your own research and be responsible enough to pick those yourself, do not ask other's subjective picks as you might lose your money. Just remember to keep at least 1 ETH into ethereum. IMO eth is one of the coins with a potential for growth in the next coming years.

invest 1.5 eth to bitcoin, 1.5 eth to any various coin that might have a good potential like NEO, ADA, BCH, ETC pr others and just hold those 2 eth.

why, because ethereum price always keeps it stable and also become a good coins if you target it for yearly profit.

if I have 5 ETH then in two years, I will invest on BTC and some I will buy BCH and ETH, and most likely I just that I invested, because the lack of knowledge about new coins, so I prefer to invest in old and definitely reliable coins like Btc, eth, and bch

Think about investing in Rpx or Apex. These are two very promising projects on the neo platform. At RPX 3 quarter planned large events.

I would keep 3 eth and buy another coins with 2 ETH. Another coins are like iota BNB ripple.

I think you should wait a bit. After the ETH rise, the prices of other coins will drop. it's better if you invest in this opportunity. you have to choose projects that adapt to the technological development of the future vision. You have to share 5 projects equally.

depending on which one gives the most profit, no matter what coin I invest it either ETH ADA XLM NEO XRP of course we will analyze where the coin gives the biggest profit, because the main purpose of investing is to get as much profit as possible.

I would hold 60% in Ethereum and I would spread the other 40% into some great altcoins. One of my favorites right now is SENT, they are doing great work and the marketcap is still very low. I think it is one of the projects that are still fyling under the radar.

if for myself I will keep in Ethereum for me save, for example I will invest to buy another altcoin, that is only part of it, and I will buy NEO WAVES XRP and XLM which I think this coin is also good for us to buy and we save in the next two years.

how do you invest for 5ETH ?  ::)

if i have 5 eth then it is quite eth resistant for long time or hold 4 eth and 1 eth to buy other altcoin like litecoin, or in play for short strolls i think 1 eth to buy helbiz because hbz is in growth and will enter the top 10 market I think it would be much more profitable.

If I have 5 ETH I will do a in depth research for ongoing or upcoming ICOs. I will consider factors such as sustainability of the project/company, whether it really delivers a valuable service/outcome, will there be a demand for their tokens in the future, whether the team has experience and qualifications to handle the project, whether token/ICO price is reasonable etc.

I will pick around three good ICOs in different industries and rank them according to my research. I will invest around 3 ETH to the best ICO and 1 ETH per each for the next two ICOs. I have seen projects such as DigixDAO and 0x did really well after the ICO.

The issue with holding 5 ETH is that ETH already appreciated and it will appreciate slower rate which means I have to stay for a long time to take a considerable profit.

One option is holding these 5 ethereum coins in 5 years but it is risky option.

I would invest these coins in few differents projects, the best option would be 20% in every coin. Neo, eos, deeponion, waves and ehtereum, its would be my invests

I better to hold ethereum myself for the long term, because now this ethereum has high long-term potential. with the time that few years I think ethereum will definitely keep increasing for the price.

If it is in a timeline of 2 years, then you're better off putting a percentage of that to the stock market. Here's what I would do if I were you. I will dispose a percentage of ETH, and buy about 5 or 10 stakes of other cryptocurrencies. The way you are now, you can maximize your earning potential by expanding your portfolio. Instead of earning from pigs, make a barn and raise some chicken, goat and cows as well. In this scenario, you won't be needing to wait for 2 years to earn. You will basically be waiting for what will happen to cryptocurrencies within this year. If you happen to hold at least 5 of other cryptocurrencies and their price skyrockets, you'll greatly be rewarded. Think of it carefully. Because right now, the price of other cryptocurrencies are relatively low. That gives you an advantage, with an almost insignificant risk of loss.

If I were you just hold eth for 2 years and I am pretty sure you gain profit from it . If also I am not mistaken ethereum will having staking option where you will only hold your ethereum and get profit profit from just holding it .

If i have 5eth means i would ready to hold for long term because the price of eth will increase rapidly within two or three years. And also another chance is to invest in different projects which will give more profits. Ethereum is also one of the high potential and promising coins in the coinmarketcap. If eth goes high means invest again in ethereum will give more profit. Other coins such as neo, waves, ripple are also good to invest. Invest in these coins are also gives much value in future.

i think if you want to invest for long term, then using 5 ETH is enough although it is not too much, we just have to find a really good altcoin that will be worthy in the future. i suggest you should choose ADA or NEO, they are the most mentioned about the altcoins that have potential to be the best in the future. So rightnow they maybe weak but i can sure they can be the most popular altcoins .

I would recommend to invest into some security token projects and avoiding equity token based stuff.

And make sure to hold at least 50% in BTC/ETH.

If I had 5 ETH to invest then I would definitely choose to invest in upcoming projects, Pre-ICO/ICO by doing deep research on project background and the team.
I suggest you to do the same and choose the project wisely.

On the ETH, make a profit and partially transfer to other promising coins such as waves or neo. There are a lot of top and quite popular directions for investing, therefore, problems should not arise with this.

I would buy 5 coins for example: Wanchain, NEO, Tronix, Zilliqa, EOS. There may be others, but better promising coins from the top 30.

Just HOLD, It would be better if I do'nt use it to invest because I think ETH has become the best choice for long term investment. 2 years is a long time and only big coins can survive. ETH is the best for it

I would hodl 50% in ethereum, 20% in bitcoin and invest the rest in few altcoins, as long as you make good altcoins that is good, don't look for big profits, high risk coins in this risky market.

I will hold 3 eth in my wallet, use 1 eth for invest in one or two projects, use 1 eth for trade eth pair altcoin and I think it's a good time for me because I see there are many altcoin pair eth that can increase in the short time. so for the rest of ethereum that I have, I don't use for anything except wait for the price and if somehow the price increase so high, I will sell it for 2 eth or 2.5 eth to gain the profit and I will wait for the price to get down again so I can buy another eth.

If I have 5eth and I wish to invest it on long term, I will invest 2eth in ethereum, 2eth in bitcoin and invest the remaining 1eth in a very promising and potentials ico project or better still, I will invest in altcoin that is stable and safe. I will hold them for atleast 2years and by then, I will be expecting profit.

sure on bitcoin if u wanna hodl, but all top 10 coin eventually following bitcoin chart. so, you can always put on some ada, bch, ltc or eth 

5 ETH - it's not such a big sum. Best decision will be diversification your sum between 5 new ICOs (try to invest on pre-sale stage).
More risk - more income.

If I had 5 ETH to invest, I would just let them stay in ETH.
ETH is literally the safest coin for the long term. Don't put money on some coins over top 100 for long term, you don't know anything bout them.
Just my 2 cents.

If I were you, I would have not invested in any other cryptocurrency cause ETH is the best altcoin and there are no better choices to hold for long term than ETH :). I'll hold 5 ETH only without investing any other cryptocurrency. I also think it's the best option :))

Well 5 ETH it's a good money for start. When I came in crypto I investd 1 ETH and I thought that this is a big money for newbie.
Anyway If you're don't affraid that you can lost this money I see some options here
1) You can buy some coin . Of corse before that you should do your research and only after that you'll buy them. You can use 2 or 3 ETH.
This is good chance to know more about exchanges, coins, pump and dump.
2) You can send this money to the ICO, of course before that you should do your research about ICO and you can be sure that this ICO won't be a scam.
This is good chance to know more about scam, price dump, losing money and maybe you're keep faith in ico after this.

Yes true and I agree, as long as we are sure that the private key in MEW is safe and not stored on the computer then I will let ETH, ETH prospect keep improving and this we can see from the daily volume of transactions that continue to increase.

It is not a huge amount, so I would say just keep it as ETH.
If (when!) the ETH price goes up significantly, you could maybe siphon off a small percentage to put into other projects.

I would either invest in Ethereum itself and not touch the coin in 2 years or I would have to invest in XEM/NEM because I believe this coin will be something worth the investment. I have a lot to learn from this coin but I just discovered this coin might be one of the few coins we need to keep an eye on now and in the future.

Too many scam ico now you need to do dip research about ico if you want to invest. 2 years is enough to support project like essentia but whitelisted is closed with 100k registration form. If latter you have chance to buy essentia on exchange it will be good investment. Or omix from shivom project.

I believe that ETH has a prosperous future like BTC. Although the price is still low, I consider it to be the small version of bitcoin. So absolutely yes! If I had 5 ETH, I would have invested in it not only for two years, but also more than that. It is trustworthy and not sort of a scam. If you believe in a coin that will prosper in the future, then I recommend investing your half fortune in it as well as keeping some for other coins like Bitcoin.

If I have 5 eth I still better to trade it with another coin, because if long-term I think still less big profit, with trading we can more quickly develop our capital.
I think it's the most efficient at the moment, and maybe it's the way we get rich quick

I would invest it in Project Shivom and Blockshipping.
Not would but already did.
Project Shivom reached 35 mil USD hard cap easily couple of days ago.
Now Blockshipping ICO is ongoing. If You check their Whitepaper, they have some really cool ideas regarding their token.
Take a look ICOs: Acorn Collective and Cardstack as well.
Thrive and Sapiens but they are still not on exchange.

And good luck!

If I have 5 eth and want to invest long term (2 years) of course I will hold it. I am sure if I hold eth for 2 years it will get a huge profit. Or I will invest in btc, ltc, xrp. These three coins have a huge volume of transactions and definitely have a good development, I think it's worth it if used for long-term investing.

It seems that good news is waiting for the eth, and you should wait for them, wait at least a couple of months, and then sell or hold.

 

i agree, some altcoins we try to hold for long term may not rise or less profit than we think, not any altcoin can be pumped in the future, so i think it would be better if we trade bt cor altcoins instead with 5 ETH, it is more profitable if we know how to trade probably, however you should know trading has its own risks ,you can loss your money if you don't know anything about trading altcoins.

Well, the simplest answer is trading and investing to the ICO.
But I think it's better to start with trading, at least I did it that. First, with the trading I knew about different coins, and only then when You will have more experience of researching  - different coins, exchanges, platforms, wallets. Only after that you can try  investing to the ICO.
Now there is a lot of scams on the ICO market, so I consider it more risky than trading. Because on trading you can lose 10 or 20 or 30 or even 50 percent, but if you're investing to the scam ICO you'll lose everything.

True, even i don't think ETH will having good increasing so much by the end of this year. So, by splitting that amount and doing to invest into some other coins for short-term invest could be have good profit by it's volatile price.

That's around $3300 for ETH, how dare you say it's not a big amount? What a dumb answer, even I think you are afraid to invest that amount.

Because you are joining bounty, so you don't need to spend your ETH to "other" altcoins, also it's not that good idea to put all of your money (and it's 5 ETH) in one basket.

First of all, I have them. secondly, I am holding Ethereum as I am waiting for the pump. The bull run will start this year - it goes without saying. ETH is for holding.

If there is some crypto coin whom you can trust when it comes to that of the holding for some good period other than that of the bitcoin, then that crypto coin is none other than that of the ETH. Most of the investors are holding ETH for longer period and that they are very much satisfied with the way ETH is behaving in the international market and that they are quite sure that doing so will help them in making money.

Well, there is no need to invest, if you have got 5 ETH then just hold it for two years. After two years, holding it would be very profitable for you, as the price of ETH will appreciate in value. Some pundits are saying that it would cross $5k in two years time.

for me the time of two years is a very long time so it seems it would be nice if I still hold the etherum because ethereum would be nice if we held it for long periods of time.

I have confidence in less expensive coins like DCN, DGB, DOGE on the grounds that a twofold digit increment in numbers is as of now extremely productive.

BTC 30%
ETH 30%
NEO 10%
Tronix 10%
EOS 10%
DOGE 10%

Suppose I had 5 ETH,I will hold that till the price of ETH reach 10,000$.May be this price is very high,but the price of Ethereum will reach that value.Now ,the potential of Ethereum is greater than bitcoin.Last month the price of Ethereum raised 800$ from 420$.Nearly hundred percentage of raise,Ethereum had huge potential.

except doge and tron, this is really good portfolio.
you can put mth and bancor. they have good potential too.

if i have 5 eth then it is quite eth resistant for long time or hold 4 eth and 1 eth to buy other altcoin like litecoin, or in play for short strolls i think 1 eth to buy helbiz because hbz is in growth and will enter the top 10 market I think it would be much more profitable.

I think I should just keep 1-2 ETH and 3 ETH left so I invest in ICO projects to make a better profit than having to choose carefully because there are many good ICO projects and there are also many projects scam and investment in ICO is a very risky investment and should be weighed carefully before investing because if successful, your profits will soon be XX

Whitepaper: https://www.multra.io/files/whitepaper.pdf
Website: https://www.multra.io/

in my opinion 5 years is too long. Time will change and many other good one will appear on time.
for now let's invest in assets of exchange project such as Huobi Pro, COSS, Kucoin, Binance.
If crypto market growth good these platform also growth together.
So I believe invest in longterm here should be good choice

If i have 5 ETH in my wallet then i would diversify my investment portfolio among some good alts like NEO,EOS,Waves and definitely left some in ETH also because it is the most profitable alt of all time.Some can be from top 100 coins in coinmarketcap like TRX,Colx and some others.

I will sepregate the investments into two or three parts and invest in different coins like Bitcoin 50%, Ethereum 25% and Bitcoin Cash 25%. This way I'm saving for future with safe and maximum profit yielding after couple of years. These coins always tops the ranking in price and in market cap which I strongly believe that these coins price will go to moon.

It is very logical to invest in Cardano considering the previous rise. It was a down payment from a dollar to a point.

I would invest in Ethereum, Neo, ADA. This is my top ideas for portfolio. Don't invest in shitcoins, you will lose your money in it. Chose something potential or stable, like top 10 crypto. You will catch whole potential of crypto development and won't lose money

Invest these 5 Ethereum in your mind. That's a joke. I would actually buy a Red Pulse or Gladius. Two great altcoins.

If i had 5 Eth, i will keep holding 1 eth, buy 1 eth worth of btc, with another 1 eth i will buy other top ten coins with another eth i will buy some good coins from top 100 list and the last eth i will invest in good icos, i think this is the best diversified investment portfolio you can create.

It depends on your risks. I would invest in stable tokens, like NEO, ETH. But if you accept risks, select some low cap coins with working product, like TIO. In case it will rise, and on bullish market altcoins rise more and you can gain more

If you have that money in ethereum, just like you are saying on the main post, then just invest those five ethereum into an ICO, or spread those five ethereum between two ICOs.
They will give you a lot of profit in a few months from now,, just remember my words

the amount is a large amount. you can play your money in many things like in ico investment which of course must be careful and also can play it in some cryptocurrency for us hold

it is a pretty good option, looking at the current development of etherum then we all must be optimistic that etherum has enormous strength, therefore that etherum price is projected to rise higher than current etherum prices. that's why when we invest etherum then we have to have patience, I'm sure will arrive such a good moment sometime in the future. etherum one of the most profitable investments if used as a long-term investment and a 2-year period is the time that is sufficient to see etherum price increases.

if I have 5 ETH it is certain that some of them will still be invested in ethereum for the long term and partly I invest it into another altcoin that is also potentially good in the future to increase its price and can be profitable if for daily trading I think a good altcoin like XLM , ADA and Waves in addition to the low cost of the projects they develop have excellent prospects for the future.

I hope the market gets better by then. if you don't mind, keep it in the wallet. forget it. One year later, I'm glad I didn't get the altcoin. :o :D

I would split the Ethereum up between a number of solid projects,

For example an ethereum in Cardano, an Ethereum in NEO an Ethereum in Bitcoin, keep one as it is and have one for a decent upcoming ICO project to take a little gamble on.

That way you spread the risk if one of the coins ends up collapsing

In my opinion, ethereum is a great choice for long term investments. Of course you might discover new coins which are more profitable than eth, but I think eth is a reliable and promising coin.

I think that there is no point in investing ETH in any other coins. Eth is a very good choice and it seems to me that the price of this coin will increase several times

If I had five ethereum to invest the truth is I will not invest in any other coin, why would I do it? The only coin that I think it is better to hold for long term is bitcoin, however I think that ethereum has better prospects to grow a little bit more in the next two years so it will not be the best option to change my ethereum for bitcoin, forget about most altcoins, in two years most altcoins are not going to exist anymore.

Is this really needed to be answered?ethereun is already an investment or should i say a perfect investment then why should have to put for another coins?no if i were to choose this will remain as eth in my wallet even if how long i would hold this,because i believe thay aside from bitcoin ethereum is the next great and profitable coins among the rest,so better stay in this coin or buy bitcoin

if i have 5 ETH, i will invest into some altcoin. suppose LTC, and also BCH, did not rule out I will also invest in ETH itself and hope will get a big profit.

Invest in 6 different new blockchain coins like NKN, QuarkChain, PChain, EdenChain, Seele, Yggdrash when they will be listed on Exchange after ICO stage - some of them will make x10-100 in the future and will enter TOP-10 on coinmarketcap

Eth is a altcoins but have a potential to grow decent in the marketplace bro. There is no problem for you to exchange the eth any other alts but  if you want to make money according to the future speculation.
Else you want to make profit with eth in short term. You can invest that on NEO, TRX, XVG and IOTA.  Growth wise you can expect some good value in future.

you must reconsider your thoughts. If am saying this because you can earn better than what you will now. if the market is providing with far beneficial options then why choosing the low ones, why not going with earning big amounts in as much small time as possible. Even if ethereum is slow in gaining value, still it is far profitable than what you have mentioned. If am giving you my sincere advise as a friend, the rest is entirely up to you.

Avoid the ETH recommendations. No scalability.

Go for Qtum or KMD or similar project with a future.

Okay that is good. You can go with % ETH and invest it in long term business. This ETH after appreciation in the values will prove more awarding and beneficial. Furthermore, many of the ETH experts says the value will cross $5000 towards the end of 2018 which means that it is a wise decision to invest in ETH for long term and reap super profits in the end and start again.

Because some people are very greedy they have their money invested in a very good coin but that is not enough they want more, this is one of the main reasons of why you see people losing money in the forum if they instead accepted the fact that obtaining huge profits is something that is very difficult they will get decent profits by investing in ETH or bitcoin over the long term.

If i have 5 eth I will invest the half to a good and sure success  ico projects and the other half i will probably trade.  I think that's what i will do.  

5 ethereum is now worth around 2000 USD so it's not a quantity that you can start investing in the long term with except the fact where you invest that 20000 USD in a coin the exponentiates in the value of the time is for approximately 50 x then it's worth it so rather invest in ico
