Bitcoin Forum

We see this kind of posts all the time for people asking for some hot tips about what kind of altcoin to buy and make money but that is not really investing, you are just gambling with your money, an investor has a plan and learns the necessary skills so he can choose the right investment by himself, after all if you get a coin recommended to you how will you know they are right in their advice.

Not only that, but buying based on coin price and not on market cap is a newbie's mistake. I would suggest you spend some time learning about crypto before investing rather than trying to chase some "quick gains" and inevitably losing your money.

I would also highlight that EOS is a centralized shitcoin, and you would do well to stay well away.

I recommend NKN because it's the new kind of network connectivity protocol & ecosystem powered by blockchain for an open, decentralized, and shared Internet. W.Diffie is the advisor and the inventor of public key cryptography, they already have testnet. Good project for long term, DYOR.

I would suggest to buy and hold next generation blockchain projects and their coins like ada, icx, aion, universa etc.
If you like new, high quality utility projects at cheap price per token, buy some omx and xyo tokens.
If you are fan of real estate investments on blockchain with monthly rentals then invest in GlobalREIT.

There is no altcoin to hold for long term except ethereum, most altcoins are very speculative they will rise and people will make profit from them but they don't have value.

If I had to give you names... I'd say research into future nextgen platforms like Universa, Quarkchain and specially Zilliqa.

Truth is, nobody knows. It's easy to look things in retrospective but we don't know where we will be one year from now.

Only fee of the coins in the marketcoin cap are good. Most of them are just coins following others for proofit. :Best altcoins to hold for long terms as per my view are ethereum ,litecoin, neo, ada. 

I agree that for now to hold for really long term among altcoins the Best is Ethereum. Everybody know that it is awesome brand, biggest cap, is developing pretty fast, moving to POS and privacy, is a Base for the most of ico, has quiet fast transactions.

And the main thing for me to be sure in its future is that fact that SEC said that it is not an utility) and we do not know what Will they said about others ;)

Hope futures Will not dump it too Hard...

I would recommend walton they are building amazing things cant go wrong with them

Invest in ROC token. The price of it is under $1 and in the coming future the price of it will increase much higher. Its price on their official website is more than $100. If you buy on exchanges then in the future people will reach to buy from you with around $100

You can buy TRON/TRX. This coin is a potential altcoin that can compete with other top altcoins in the market. Right now, it's on their way to their token migration which they are getting out from ethereum platform. In other words, they are now an independent coin. June 26 (if im not mistaken)is the date of migration. Though im not sure if TRON will boom because of weak market. But this is 10 year project to develop. Also it has large community which supports TRON. So HODL it and im sure you'll get some gains from it.

Anyway, if you're afraid to buy some of it. Then i think you should stick to top 5 altcoins in the marketcap right now. I think they could give profits in the long run. Bear market is really makes altcoins drop for weeks now. If you're thinking about buying. Then i think it's the right time go buy. Good luck.

You can check out UTN, it is going to have lots of potentials in the future, speculation has it that it might be a legalised cryptocurrency for Russia

There are many altcoin if you hold long term they will give you high profit but my highest expectation is that ETH and BTC so I recommend you hold these two coins, they will rebound and grow back. in the future.

OP, make your research regarding this place. You may find a coin worthing that amount you just stated but not worth it. Now the price of bitcoin is quite low, it affect some altcoins too anf now is the time to buy your favorite altcoins that are really worth it cause their price will be low too. Aside bitcoin, I personally invested in cryptocurrencies like Bobsrepair(BOB) and AUTO because they are coins that are been used for everyday activities and has the advantage of mooning soon.

I wouldn't ask someone to shill their coins that are under $0.5. How you are trying to make yourself secure with what you are asking?
You want a cheap coin and ask that there's an assurance of it to grow in the future? What kind of question is that.
If there's an altcoin like that I wouldn't gladly tell it to you, there's no coin such like that, we are also in the bear market so it's hard to know.

It looks so difficult right now. There is a lot of altcoins are still below the ico price but I can't give you a lot of choice because they are not having a proper development progress. Remme, UTN look very good choice for me.
UTN blockchain will alive as soon as possible dude. Just be patience for that.

But still there are a lot of coins which are of the type which the OP need but it need research. Theer are more than a thousands coin, some people know one coin and some know other like I know about ROC coin that it has started the growth. That is why this type of question help.

I recommend NKN because it's the new kind of network connectivity protocol & ecosystem powered by blockchain for an open, decentralized, and shared Internet. W.Diffie is the advisor and the inventor of public key cryptography, they already have testnet. Good project for long term, DYOR.

NEO has surprised me lately, it's quite good, many say it's the Chinese ethereum, and I think it will be successful regardless of what china do with the ICOs. Neo is going to help create an entire smart economy, which is where they see the future of blockchain. You don't need ICOs to be legalized in China for this to happen.

I still believe in Ethereum to hold in the long term, Ethereum in my opinion is the best altcoin, I see Ethereum continues to grow well so I am very confident that he has a bright future.

Check out DeepOnion for your research. Strong Privacy coin, great tech and a great community. A little more than .50 usd, about .70 usd right now. Extremely undervalued coin with small market cap and small supply. Check it out and do your own research. I think theres a strong use case for privacy coins.

It seems this is a good time to invest a little bit in altcoin when prices are good
It's hard to talk about the hottest altcoin because the market is very volatile. To make a name , i choose DigiByte .The market goes down but dgb is stable compared to other altcoin . Dgb forecast is likely to be very high this year. Although it is now only $ 0. 034762 , but dgb is expected to increase $ 5 in five years

The price of altcoins has dropped a lot. Some of them are worth investing. Examples are BCH and Dash.

for us ethereum altcoin survives for the long term, because altcoin ethereum is very speculative for us to get in the long run, because now the price is still low, so we also still many good opportunities that we get.

Not recommending the under 0.5$ coin. But you can surely bag some binance(bnb) coin and Huobi token too. They are the coins which are not effected even during the bear market and they are gonna prosper well with the exchange so its a win win situation.
And also binance does coin burn too which helps price get the momentum.

Thank you I will check the details utn project.
I think its too late to buy those kinds of coins and even if you profit it will just be few hundreds on top of your investment. Thats why Im looking for a coin that is still cheap which is $.050 each so that in the long run it will increase its value if the project is realy good and serious.

By searching for it yourself then you will get what you want with the best coins at a fairly cheap price, be able to search the hottest news on trusted crypto sites, so you yourself are more satisfied to determine your own future, choose from the best coins will be very good at the future with sufficient patience, any advice given to you not necessarily you know 100% and may have to dig deeper the prospect of coins your friend recommends no different from your own search and probably would be great if you want to analyze in depth not to rush in making decisions, back again it's all how you become yourself, I'm not an expert in deciding for 100% big profit.

I think a good coin to hold in the long run besides Bitcoin is Ethereum, the quality of Ethereum is very good and very promising so I believe that the future of Ethereum is very bright.

I think for now every coin is not on peak.. EOS is same too. If you don’t trust in EOS, you can buy XRP. XRP now costs lower 0.5. You don’t want to miss this chance…. I had bought XRP at price 0.89 weeks ago.

I think that in the long term it would be nice to buy a Refereum or Red Pulse. I think these tokens are very promising.

EOS is a great currency.In April last year it reached $21.4637.now the price of EOS is $7.9177.The price of altcoin is now low on the market.so it's better to buy this now.I think the price of EOS will increase in August or September.so I hope to get a profit if I wait until August or September.

now the market is down, the current situation makes us anxious and hard to assume, many altcoins are affected by this decline, I advise you to examine many altcoin before deciding to buy one altcoin in the market, I advise you to buy ontology or Stellar lumens.

Yes i agree, better start investing ethereum for a long term. This is good for the promising investors wants to have a profit some altcoins doesn't have value.

Many good project that now seem like in the bottom and you can grab small piecies. Now I only hold most of XLM and COSS. Hope they will be big in future. I believe in their team and their roadmap

If you decide to hold a penny for a long time, choose ETH, or BTC are the two most important coins and they can go to the moon by the end of the year, I'm sure the market will recover Ever fall forever.

You can bet some of your money on Tron. This coin is great for you to keep in the long term. You can take more profit, just waiting for better market or until the end of this year

AMB.

-currently only $.26
-you can get a master node for around $3k usd which is an insane deal considering the expected ROI for node operators
-rumored partnerships with Migros (30 billion), GSK (40 billion) and others means there will be mass adoption of AMB-NET platform
-rockstar team with deep connections in Swiss government and corporations
-full fledged IOT platform with their own hardware and proprietary sensors

Hard to say which altcoins are the best to hold them for long term? What do you mean with long term. Long term is for me if you hold a coins for 2-5 years or even longer. Good coins to hold for a couple of years are Ethereum, Litecoin, Waves and last but not least Bitcoin! :D

I think personally,The best coins to survive in the long run are minexcoin,Ethereum and bitcoin because the three coins, have a large volume in all markets and use their own platform

The price is not important dude. The important thing is the total marketcap.
By the way, I don't recommend you to buy during the fall. "catching a falling knife" is not easy. Just wait for the bullish trend.

You don't believe the crypto market so you are not recommend the Crypto investment. This is the best time to buy altcoin because if you buy more altcoin automatically this will raise in similarly so demands is the major role in every cryptocurrency. But no one is invest in crypto this will move backward so we should support this situation it will make profit.

Nothing is surprising there about NEO price mate since it was said to be the back bone for the Chinese implementation from fiat to digital currency and we both know that the Chinese have the highest population in the world. However, the only way to choose the best altcoin to hold is through there past historical data for years before the recent market correction.
Meanwhile, UBCoin (https://ubcoin.io/en/ico) is coming strong and it good altcoin for longterm investment. 

ANN thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3109856.0)

The best altcoins to hold for long term are those listed in the Coin Market Cap. These coins had been cared by their developers and are trusted by many investors. These coins no doubt will stay for long.

I think you can start from MTC, it is a good coin. In just one month the value is increased 20 times (0.02 ~ 0.4 $). I appreciate the team, its great community. By the end of 2018, the value of the MTC may be up to $ 5.

I HODL QuarkChain because QKC has the Ethirium killer potential - new blockchain with sharding and 100K tps, EVM compatible smart-contracts, DYOR!

Buy and hold credits the price of it is now 0.4$ , it would go triple or maybe x10 when the market recovers. They a have a lot of partnership , and beta platform will be soon release.

I will choose ETh to hold the long, coin potential and safest this year, so you can choose this coin to hold, I guarantee you will be profitable in the future.

Ethereum is top most trusted platform so it will raise in future and It is the secured investment but we should split to more than two coins because we don't believe the single investment in crypto and anytime this will move to down so better invest in additional investment. We don't worried about any kind of situation.

Do not put all your money on any one best altcoin because there is no such thing that anyone can know beforehand for sure. Instead divide it into the top ten or twenty altcoins.

He's asking for a coin that will give you profit without any doubts and hesitation and that's impossible with the crypto market.
You know the volatility thing about coin and it's not about how cheap the coin is but it's all about the unstable pricing of every coin whether they are under $0.5.
What I want to say is there is no way to find out that such coins will have higher value in the future with less than a price of what OP is asking.

You do not just rely on advice from others only, but you have to learn more about the development of Altcoin in order to avoid losses. I see that there is now so much Altcoin we can buy for the long run or for daily tranding because the current market situation all dropped dramatically even up to 200% more.

Well I wikk recommend spotcoin. Read the latest update by the team
The Spotcoin’s Weekly Roundup #2 + Crypto Priest at NEO, part 2.
For more update read up!!!

how about the token spectre.ai (SXDT), since the launch until now, I notice the SXDT price is always above the ICO price, although bitcoin (BTC) is down, but SXDT is not so affected by this.

someone can not give you a definite suggestion, because if you ask 1 person and then ask the other of course the answer is different, so there is no clue.
it makes no sense to ask for advice from someone you do not know, and you put your money in there, it's like gambling.

I see from the development of many altcoins, I think Ethereum is the best altcoin to hold in the long term, Ethereum price is quite stable and very promising so I think it is very appropriate to hold in the long term.

https://coinidol.com/trending-european-top-ico/
if in my opinion you might be interested in hashrental too, because the concept is interesting you can do their mining machine rental using their tokens and can get more profit from their ICO price

I think it would be nice to purchase for a long term Refereum or Red Pulse. It's a great investment.

I had to remove your size not sure why it was needed. There are many altcoins you can purchase for $0.50. What is your reason behind picking coins that are around 0.50 and not few cents or $1? Many people in this thread have made great suggestion so you can pick any of them but you'll have more options if you leave more room for other tokens that may not be around your exact price.

Check Blockshipping.
ICO ongoing.

The blockchain based GSCP platform is the world's first freight container registry and the first global platform allowing all players in the shipping industry to perform a wide range of transactions related to the handling of containers.
The GSCP ICO offers a set of token features including a Revenue Sharing Model as well as a Market Maker Fund that allows ICO contributors to sell their coins back to the platform at a floor price until Blockshipping has met certain fixed milestones.

I took them already for bounty campaign because I want to take as more as possible their tokens. Via bounty and token sale.


Acorn collective. Soon on exchanges.

Enkronos. ICO as well.

GoNetwork

Project Shivom. Zebi, Matrix and CVC are already on exchanges.

Powerledger, We Power and CarVertical. Thrive.

HODL!!!

Many best altcoins are below $0.50 in crypto market. If you want invest buy more coins. My choice is OMX shivom project now it's value $0.02.Shivom have created a secure global genomic ecosystem that aims to become the largest healthcare data-hub on the planet. Omx has great potential coin shivom project has partnership with leading molecular diagnostics company Genetic Technologies Limited .

https://d178njs2swzquh.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Ethereum-vs-EOS-650x337.jpg
ethereum (ETH) and EOS I recommend to be a short-term investment. now is a good time if you are going to invest in both coins

I recomend deeponion it’s a privacy Coin huge community , great feature , constant development many exchanges are listing it and it has a great potential to become one of the top privacy Coin in the market can easily reach top 100  right now it’s a bargain .check it out

Thus I think you are wrong. EOS still has the potential to be great and this is not the highest peak in the EOS. Indeed apart from the EOS is also much like a ripple which is also a nice altcoin for investment. but for that still has the potential to ride course EOS a good choice.

I advise you to try to invest in NEO for a long term.  But I do not advise you to invest only in one coin. You can take a look at PRL, Nuls, ITC, IOTA as altcoin have the opportunity to raise prices in the future.

Something close to that mate, maybe around 10 years. Im planning to invest my $1000 that I got when I sold my exrn tokens. I am looking for a more solid project that will be profitable soon so that i can use it when I retire from working at the age of 40.

I think it is better yo go back to do your own research after the suggestions given to decide the best altcoin that you can hold for long term as everyone have different coin interest. You own your cash and you should be the person to make the decision of coin you will invest in.

i think the best altcoin for the long term is BNB, NEO, and QTUM. or you can see a list of coins and tokens in coinmarketcap from 1-100
i'm sure you're getting confused and hesitant to see so many coins recommended for the long term ;D

Hello! I can advise the following tokens and coins: ADA, ZIL, NCASH, XLM, TRX, CREDITS, BERRY and IOST. I advise you to buy at least one year. The profit will be exact.

I recommend  UBCoin (https://ubcoin.io/en) and 1UBC is currently 0.00011161ETH. However, the coin have a great utility and the purpose of the project is to make cryptocurrency more easy to spend than fiat currency. Besides, have created UB Bank and they are planning to created a market place like eBay and their UBCoin either.
Go to their   site (https://ubcoin.io/en)  or   ANN thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3109856.0) so you can understand what I'm saying.

I invest only in well-studied projects, one of them is Tradelize. There are a lot of crypto market participants who will greatly welcome the opportunity to use a professional toolkit, which is based on mature market strategies and which gives regular people an easy way to enter the game.

If market position is not good.I recommend Pundi X,Credits,EOS,IOTA,OMG,BCN,Waves,PPT & Bancor my best choice.Those coin now very lower price you can buy.If after couple of months market will be pumped all coin are 200%-300% increased.Personally I decide to big investment with IOTA.

My choice is from top10. NEO, EOS, ADA, IOTA solid, cheap and good for future. You can buy more from top200 but some of those coins are equal roulette. All solid for long-term in the TOP10-TOP20

I think ETH is good for investment, but take a look scidex.  The team looks really solid and project seems extremely interesting. I just participated in SciDex’s community program. They are building a new marketspace for scientific data and their goal is to accelerate science. another good thing it's if you participate in community program and you win free scitoken. It's such a great time to create something. :)

You should know which coin is best for short and long term.The coin with low value and best one for long term is Ethereum, litecoin,ETC and waves.It doesn't mean, you have to buy a full ETH or ETC.You can buy any amount of bitcoin or altcoin based on holding.

To hold any coin you most be able to read there white paper to the the future of the coin u wanted to invest in. But no thought Bitcoin and ETH are the better one.

Per my research, recommend Ada,  zilliqa and verge. I see potentials in these coins but kindly do your personal research on all the suggested coins before you probably invest.

I think it's no needed to use bold big size word like that :). And it's no needed to ask about best altcoin to hold for longterm cause you just need to choose the best altcoin cause it's always the best choice for both long or shortterm holding :). Is it needed to let you know what is the best altcoin in cryptocurrency market?

There are lots of altcoins that is having a price around of $.50, but there are no guarantee that it can double your investment or it can give you more profit in the future. Unlike in ethereum and bitcoin that has been tested and most recommended cryptos by most of all crypto holders for how many years.

I apologize if I created my post with big fonts but they are not in bold text. Second is I am asking for the recommendations of those who are willing to help me review a good project which has a good potential in the future that is not that expensive yet to invest because I only have $1k budget. Third is I have some hoices but im looking for old traders choice of alts.

If you want to hold long, you should choose ETH, this is the most potential coin today, maybe in the future as expected by many people will increase to $ 2000 in late 2018.

As for altcoin is good to be resistant in a long time, one of them is.
(Glob coin) Coming with the goal of bringing stablecoin to the next level, GlobCoin is a virtual currency that combines the best aspects of cryptocurrency currencies and fiat currencies. First, GlobCoin has a lot going for it. And perhaps the biggest highlight is its relation to currencies in the world's 15 largest economies.

do some research before investing your money, like see the goals of project, the team / behind the prject, an advisor, more info...
I thought you late to choose EOS as investing, but who know if EOS able to revival more. Just trust your self, to make your be better.

I think that you need to invest in a few coins, I would choose Theta, Ontology, IOST for long-term storage. Coins are new but very promising, they are already traded on the largest exchanges such as Binance, Huobi, etc.; this indicates their high potential.

Thanks for the tip mate I will check thier details.

 altcoin is very appropriate to hold in the long term in my opinion is Ethereum, Ethereum has a lot of potential in the future and the price is quite stable so I think is very reliable.

NLG will roll out one of the most advanced blockchain upgrades ever. Including the ability to gain interest on your investment by witnessing blocks (3-10% interest).

Take a look at a post I have made: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4556668.0

As I can consider myself as an expert in ICOs field and investment, so I can give you some advice. You need to choose it really careful and study all about ICO project which you want to invest in. For example, an experience of a team, a value of the project, uniqueness and then read some comments about it. If you need my recommendation, I can say you that you need to study about Kelvin Blockchain. Kelvin Blockchain is very flexible and adaptive, which makes it a perfect choice for implementation of the new blockchain projects and platforms.

in my point of view, TRON and WPR are two good coins for you now. TRON has just used new own technology instead of ERC20. I believe that it will have a good future.

right now go for tron and eos or maybe ripple too these coins may have chances ??? to increase in future :(

Do you think that the etherium protocol has no future? In my opinion, erc-20 deserves more attention, since more than 90% of coins are created using this technology.

each coin / token has own potential for growth of profit reasonable for %. important the fact that you will remain you will be able to win other coins / counters, and all of you will equally choose your choice and to sell with profit. I would buy XRP if the price to 0.50 cents.

Best altcoin to hold for long term is Ethereum.Now the price of is Ethereum is around 411$,but the price of ETH is 600$ at the beginning of this month.Nearly,200$ variation is between current price and the price of ETH in past.Next to the bitcoin,Ethereum had huge investors in this crptocurrreny .

To be honest if we break the last all time high in the future EOS is still good coin to buy. The features will beat ethereum and people start using it for crowdsale. But if you want token which is very undervalued but the developer still on progress to make the project work i will recomend you atlant, auctus, HyperQuant, essentia. Essentia will have its own blockchain and there is commitment from investor for 100 million funding in the futures.

there are so many altcoins in this market and there are few of them are really worthy for long term holding, i find out ADA, a new platform was born recently that can be a great altcoin in the future, until now ADA is still very young and underevaluated but with its great potential platform, it can defea and replace ETH in the future.

EOS has a lot of negative news recently, I suggest you not to buy, I can recommend a few cryptocurrencies that I think are good.
BTM.FT.CONI.WICC.KEY
The purchase price of these cryptocurrencies is not high, and there is a lot of room for growth. You can check it out!

"The revolution is on! Asian Develop Coin (ADC) Pre-sale has begun.1 000 000 ADC estimated time from 30/06/2018  to 20/07/2018.
At this stage, you can buy ADC at a 20% discount from standard price.
Discount 20% : 2.4 USD/ ADC.
Everyday ADC sells only 50 000 ADC at 10 AM  Germany Time.
Open for sale for 20 consecutive days"

Bitshares will grow exponentially with it's treasury system. Beside this not so long ago they implemented TradingView and this chain holds the record with 4.8 million transactions per day on blocktivity.

I just bought sonm after i saw the ads on cmc. The project is really cool. We can mine by buying othe people computwr power and i like this kind of mining it is better then buying scam cloud mining. You also can buy computer power for rendering and for your AI project. Another altcoin i suggest is atlant. I think atlant can make the platform for real estate comes true. The progress on github is really happen we just need patient and the price also 1/9 ico price !!!

for today it is a lot of project to die from the perspective, but nevertheless can not qualitatively develop, because the crypto-currency market is in very bad condition. We can say that investors fell into hibernation, because it is not profitable to invest today.

The potential coin who best for the longterm is the ripple coin is near at .50 cents and this is good to hold for few years and you will see even your money is littlr it will become big because the highest possible price of ripple is around hundreds to thousands dollars.

if you are looking for altcoin with that value, i think ADA, TRX, is a nice altcoin for future. currently the second value of altcoin is below $ 0.50 and both have selesei reach the first peak. I think there will be a next price peak. just wait some time. to sell at high prices. because the mother of the crypto currency is falling in value.

IOST would be the best choice at this point.It is at all time low and in the near future won't ever come this low.
I am waiting for the dAPPS development to begin and the mainnet launch, after that its going to BOOM.Might even ride a few FOMO waves til then.
So pick IOST, before it gets too late.

To find the altcoins that match the criteria you gave, the XRP I found reasonable. Current ripple is very potential in the future because it is only behind BTC and ETH. XRP's blockchain technology is currently used in many companies around the world, with XRP's current exchange rate of only $ 0.4. So invest today and hold for long-term to make a high profit in the future.

I think it's good if you do your own research if you want to buy those cheaper altcoins as more alts are having hype and its a risk to invest without doing your research.

Some people are already posted about Spectrecoin (XSPEC) in other threads

But my view on this is that

In order to win the arms race with 1890 other crypto projects

a project must have USP (unique selling proposition)

More beneficial for the initial investor is to get entered in such a project at a very low mcap for maximum potential gains (penny stocks)

One of those super undervalued projects is Spectrecoin

Do your own research to understand why, but main reason is a possibility of staking while staying completely anonymous receiving anonymous stakes - new Stealth Staking algo or Proof-of-Stealth

P.S.
And btw it has alread been hitting ATH of 5-6 dollars per coin, while now as you ve asked sub 0,5$
So now is the time if anything

OP next time if you are going to post the same, use the normal font size. You don't have to bold and increase it.

I like Shift (although at around $0.80 so slightly above). Decentralised internet eth working product

Spectrecoin (xspec) - New dev team, website, white paper, recent fork, testnet and now starting work on stealth staking

I would look into Securities tokens. Mostly, they represent a long-term opportunities for holders.

Corl, for example, is the world’s first token to represent equity ownership in a company that provides revenue-sharing financing to high-potential early-revenue companies.

Unlike traditional tokens on the market, Corl is based on a profit-sharing model and investors receive a continuous stream of quarterly dividends in the form of Ether (ETH), based on future earnings of Corl.

So, here's the link if you want to dive into the world of Securities https://corl.io/

If you’re looking at a coin under .50c you need to take into consideration the current marketcap and supply of the coin. Look for a smaller marketcap and smaller supply as that is what is going to determine price in the long term. Take into consideration the strength of the team, utility of the coin, strength of community and project funding. If all 4 of those things are in place than the coin has potential to succeed. I’m investing in Spectrecoin at the moment for those very reasons. They have a development fund set up where every 6th Block goes to the development of the project. The project also ranks in the top 10 of most successful ICO’s in rate of return.

indeed ADA and TRX became the ideal of investors to choose the coin,
because the development of the two coins was very good and competitive in world crypto currency

I believe that we are waiting for the demand for coins of privacy, they are the equivalent of cash which is also private. In crypto, many miss this moment by attention, but in vain... XSPEC is a Prime example of a privacy coin at the request of the user. It is also a fully working product, which means public recognition and therefore growth is inevitable. At the moment, the price is firmly held around $0.3. Don't miss this sleeping giant! Good luck in your search!
https://spectreproject.io

many altcoins that cost under $ 50 but no one guarantees that the coin will increase in the future, I think how cryptocurrency works is not as easy as the advice given by others, the reality is that it is very difficult to guess which altcoin will increase, I think all traders keep monitoring the altcoin and see the development of all altcoins at the same time, traders don't stick to one or more altcoins, they are very smart at choosing altcoins and are not afraid of losing money.

Looking through this thread I've seen some have mentioned Spectrecoin, Xspec but I really have to agree. Currently it's under .50 cents and has $20 dollar potential by 2019. It's all time high was $6.00 during the last bull run with a lesser product so if you think Xspec can't at least equal it's previous high of $6.00 with more to show tech and development wise during the next bull run your crazy. It will be an insane return even if it just reaches it's previous high. In all honesty I know of no coin that packs that kind of potential return.

Great advice, we should not depend to anyone because if you ask wrong people for sure he will tell you to invest on a shitcoin. This market consist of good altcoins, make effort to know the coins that is worth holding for in the long term. Investment is very risky, you have to understand this market and not to keep on asking where to invest.

under 0.5$ I only know ADA and XRP. It is 2 altcoin will bring the most profit when the market goes up. The price of ada and xrp can be very high in the future because of its current low price and these are very potential cryptocurrency

If that keeps boiling long- term i recommend buying and storing Altcoin as EDO. EDO Altcoin is a slow but steady and steady increase that is ranked 178 on coinmarketcap. EDO's technology is very good and very potential in the future and it is expected to be up to $ 20 next year.

This are my list for the best profitable altcoin.

1. Ethereum
2. ADA
3. EOS
4. Litecoin
5. NEO

These altcoins are also one of the best altcoins of 2017 and since then they got a lot of improvement. So i believe these altcoins are the best for doing a long term investment if we will base it on their performance. But still it will depends on you. Still do a research until you will satisfy yourself so you will not regret it.

Very often the cheapest "penny" altcoins really give the best profits but not all of them. If you are not yet ready to risk, pick better Cardano, NEO, DASH, Monero, and Qtum.

I don't like EOS and not have the likes of this coin so its a no no for me. If you are looking for $0.5 worth of altcoins currently, there's a lot of it. I'll suggest you those coins that fits your budget that I think is a good coin to buy now though I want to tell you my best buy coins that's quite expensive.

1. Stellar - $0.2
2. Zilliqa - $0.04
3. Digibyte - $0.03
4. Siacoin - $0.006
5. Pundi X - $0.001

Here are the coins from the top 50 of www.coinmarketcap.com

There's a lot of altcoin that in a cheap price because of the huge drop in the past few months until now the market are not fully recovered yet.  Yes is in the cheap price  but not all of them are worth it or will giving to you profits,  because a lot of them is a shitcoins. Make a research before invest.

i recomend you my top 5 coin.
1. BTC
2 ETH
3 DOGE
4 BCN
5 EOS

yes, that is what we should do, before we buy altcoins to invest long term, or to trade, we better do the research with the altcoin first, choose what we think the coin will have a good development in the future, and we must really careful in choosing it, so that we will get big profits.

Do you think Bitcoin Cash or ETH have good development teams?

In my own opinion no one can recommend you what kind of altcoin do you invest in.We must decide and analyze that altcoin do we invest so that we cannot blame others opinion.
