Bitcoin Forum

I spent most of my time doing research on many altcoins, their old price to the present value and i find out that even if you sell your tokens today leaving few tokens worth few dollars for many years can worth something. For example if you left 9$ worth of bitcoin in your wallet since 2012 you would never have imagine what it will become today, in jan 2017 you can buy 5000 pieces of Ripple at 0.007$ which costs 35$ and in jan 2018 a XRP cost 3$ which turns 15000$, there are many examples like this on CMC, remember Tron too? My point is its bad selling off all your coins, if you needed money that bad always leave coins and tokens worth of few dollars left in your wallet just in case

I wouldn't term it as a good or bad advice because of a simple reason - destiny! I strongly believe that destiny drives us all and if destiny says that I will die as a billionaire, I will become one! We as a commoner, don't know how and when a coin will reach its ATH and we wouldn't know when to sell it off to book profit!

Similarly, while many people sold off their holdings back in later 2017 and brought home hard cold cash, there were another group of people who entered the market and suffered major financial loss due to their decision!

So it's not a clever thing to look back at past and regret for what I haven't done! It's always better to look forward and decide what I can achieve! Crypto market is one of the prime examples!

Stop clinging unto the past, focus more on the present for now and i am sure that there is more money to be made in crypto space, just find good coins to hold as long as you want, remember that its not easy to hold coins and remember that not all people start holding since 2010, some entered crypto space when the last bullrun of 2017 was already around the corner

It's a good advice mate and i have been doing this ever since i got into this space. My plan is to sell a portion of any token/coin i receive being it an ICO/IEO then keep some part of it. It's not advisable to hold all the coins of any project because most of them can turn out to be scams at any point in time.

Holding altcoin in the past is profitable, whatever you buy is definitely profitable, but it's different for now. Try to research altcoin now. It's a little harder to predict, for example, now to buy this coin for $ 0.15, then wait for the next few months what happens as unprofitable as the market used to be keep fluctuating and and bears still come to come.

It is easy to say than done when you are desperately in need of money. When that happens you will not care about saving because you need it desperately, it might be good advice but the situation will not let you do that. What I mean is, before investing your money and holding it. Always prepare or spare some money for your needs, instead of selling the majority of your holding and leaving a few altcoins why do not you manage your finances and then making a strategy so you can hold and live at the same time.

You made all these calculations based on past history.

It's easy to say that if I would have invested in coin A at this time and exchanged it for another B at another time when you already know whats going to happen.

Anyway, the real challenge is no one actually knows where the market will be heading in the future and holding alts even at a time of downward trend will definitely result in huge losses.

So, it is better to have a personal target and once you hit it, it's wiser to just cash out.

Yes it is true, sometimes what is said is far easier than doing. Sometimes we are too ambitious to benefit from altcoin and sometimes we don't think about our financial situation. It is true that we have to set aside some of our money to be able to continue to survive in crryptocurrency and be able to generate profits from it.

Comparing the old market with the present, it was not that complicated. More and more people are aware of the crypto market today and this increase has caused a different movement of everything related. So, do not expect that there will be such a big increase in the future as it happened in the past. Because the increase of community means more disagreement.

It's neither good or bad. Don't expect too much with how market is doing now. That was back then, a die hard hodlers might have tons of profit if they bought few cheap altcoins and then the price became ten fold or more. But really, let's face it. It won't happen just like that, indeed, there is a possibiltiy if you buy now and hodl for a few years just like what happened few years ago. But it doesn't guarantee you the same result.

Well, at least it won't kill you if you still wanna hodl some coins for the next few years. Who knows if it becomes quite expensive, that if fortune was on your side.

I must say that its a good idea to leave few coins when you need to sell them becuase we don't know what will happen in the future. Crypto market history may repeat but it might take some years considering the market movement these days. Everyone is waiting for another bullish market and if you want to maximize your profit, just hold and buy more during dips.

Its a good advice, whatever coins or tokens i earned i always make sure i sell some and hold the rest and that is even if the project looks very promising, holding new coins can be devastating at times, they can die even before a year or two

if the price is not worth it, I will not sell my assets. Well, the years before 2017 taught us a lot about holding our assets. right now there is the same potential as 2017, well, I won't sell my coins now. although it's not like 2017, I think it will happen or repeat every year. remember this year, it happened in June. although different, but the increase is there. Well, I think in 2020 the increase in crypto prices will also occur

Good projects will always have high demand and high demand will result in more scarcity, i belief any altcoin can still change anyone's life, real use case projects will never go wrong, let this be for aim now if you want good result in future

@FireBallex it’s a good advice but leaving few dollars in bitcoins is not going to help you, because back then prices were very low so people that decided to hodl thier crypto’s did benefit from their decision. However in current scenario one needs to buy on dips, and hold a good amount of funds in crypto’s to profit from their holdings in the long run. While there’s no doubt that people often need to sell their crypto’s because of sudden financial emergencies, and for this I suggest only to invest thier surplus funds which will reduce the need of selling thier crypto’s.

Just don't forget which ever wallet you use and alt you invested. Some alts tend to change in their use or assigned wallet or exchange so we need still to be updated. While it's good to left them so we don't worry whether they increase or not, we still need to be updated for development that alt is up too or atleast read teams announcement since they are changing sometimes that we need to do actions to not lose our token.

in this case the future no one knows for a moment about investment whether bitcoin or altcoin will be even higher in price mate ,well all of that is more appropriate to the community if we work together then it will become a reality right ,good advice if the investment in long term but still the risk must be known if you invest history maybe repeated in the future but it must remain realistic

Sometimes we underestimate the coin and don't expect that coin can be worth it in the next year. I think we already see that before and now, many altcoins still have the potential to increase in the next year. But I think the situation will be different now as the altcoin still not rise higher than the last year. But we see that some altcoin is still trying to break the higher price so the chance will be there. That could be good advice not to sell all of the coins and leave some amount for the next waves. But if we can compare bitcoin and altcoin, I think it is worth to have bitcoin than altcoin to be held for a long term because bitcoin price will increase in the long term while altcoin cannot always increase in the long term.

Yeah sure it is a good example, but you need to see the future to make such trades. It is real that people just forget about several bucks in BTC, but to invest those money into right coin at the right time and repeat it several times is impossible.

I do not understand what you are saying, because it is very clear that a good project will always have high demand, but I do not understand the statement you say "high demand will produce more scarcity" if you can explain the words that exist in the quotation mark?

That coins are the potential ones, we never expected that the price of bitcoin will become expensive. People who bought bitcoin when it is still cheap are very lucky. The thing is you are never sure if the coin that you are holding will become expensive in the near future. Make sure that before you hold a coin, you know information about it and you are that having it is really worth it.

from the case that you experience I think you should be able to learn from the experience of a few years ago when the price of coins is still cheap you can buy as many coins as you can and after that if you are in need of money then you can use other money without disturbing the existing money in the exchange so you will enjoy a lot of profit and can grow your trading capital.

You are talking about the old days when there was an era of the emergence of crypto space and the entire crypto community was looking into the bright future which in turn allowed to inflate such prices for coins. Now the situation is different, the market is oversaturated and there are many other problems associated with the popularization and integration of cryptocurrency into society.

Let me be candid here, If you needed money for very important reasons and your crypto holdings are your last resort, it's not bad selling off. For instance you need money for a major operation or treatment of a life threatening health issue, and it means selling your crypto holdings to remedy the situation, it's human to sell unless you are deceiving yourself. If it's a minor issue that doesn't warrant you to sell off your holdings, then there is no point selling off everything. Holding is good yes, but wisely.

It is really hard to predict when to buy or sell cryptocurrency is really volatile and unpredictable, It is easy to say I hope they didn't sell their coins at a lower price but we are not in their shoes. In history, bitcoin has been leading these ups and downs and altcoins follow after a Bullrun bitcoin loses 90% or more of its price and then reaches new ATH after a couple of years I hope history repeats itself in the coming bitcoin halving and all we can do is believe.

Many people are waiting for things where the price of all coins increases and they can get a lot of profit from it. And to buy more coins when prices are falling is indeed the right thing to do but I think it depends on whether or not the person is waiting for the altcoin season.

Cryptocurrency is highly unpredictable, sometimes you leave your coin and it dumps without any hope of ever recovering, and at another time, you sell and it just mooned and you loss a great opprotunity of fortune. If one can cope with the HYIP of rising and falling of altcoins then it's okay to hold for a long term, not everyone can cope without with holding their altcoin for too long due to market condition.

It's not that hard if you have an information from the past but I do agree that it is for newbies to literally predict the market price when they don't even know what is the origin. Just like OP did he managed to get the profit that he wants because he keep searching for the valuable token and not just some random token which is out of the top coins in marketcap. Indeed, there are selected altcoins that can gain some prices when the market started to go bullish.

i have different token on wallet as might trader might have with decision on purchasing with least of price but sometimes i do not like their price as they speaks of poor english as indonesian kids/people... i decide to keep them away as might they ruin my work with the project to release for pupils of indonesia.

That's what I always say, cryptocurrency is always full of surprises, we never imagined it but it turned out to be an amazing surprise. I have experienced that, when in early 2018, I had a bounty reward that was not good enough so I ignored it and left it in my wallet, and when I needed the money and opened a wallet it turned out to be valuable, enough for one month's needs. So, when many friends started giving up, I chose to stay here, because there was still hope :)
OP's advice is pretty good. So, if that is possible, leave a few coins or tokens in your wallet, let alone a potential one, who knows it will be very valuable. But don't expect too much, just pray that good luck comes again.

Right, because not all new coins are worth holding, unless the project is really real, then there is something we need to hold, because the price of new altcoins on the market will quickly change and even tend to fall in price when there is a lot of supply to the exchange.

I believe.  HOLD token, some projects that may become relevant after some time, can bring a decent income.  There is no guarantee that this will be so.  But I made such a decision and I will not regret it if my plan does not work.  But if everything goes according to plan, I will be very happy.

The strategy you give is very good, in fact I never sold all the money I had. I usually sell 90% of the coins I have, the remaining 10% I will put away somewhere and forget it.
Very likely in the future that small amount will bring me a large amount of money.
If everyone remembers the Nano coin (formerly XRB) knows that if everyone initially kept $ 10 XRB then only a while later they would have $ 40k.
Of course, such cases are very unlikely, but we absolutely have the right to hope.

In short, I call it greed.
You see an opportunity to sell at a higher price and so did you.
But regret comes afterwards and you are thinking you should have not sold.
This happens mostly with ICO campaigns.
How should I know that,
Happened to me once and I did regret it. But I would never go far into posting it as a new thread.

so basically the title of your thread asks if your advice given on the op is good  or bad  ? well if that is then id say that your are right . its a good advice  but its an also an old advice and many people knew this stuff already  .

ever since the crypto began people see the flow of cryptos and they see that crypto have the potential to fly the longer they exist on this world its because people eventually entering crypto  . this is why people also left some coins to assume that they can earn huge income in the future  .

Yes sometimes its better to keep them for years than selling it at huge loss it will be more regretful if you see those you already given up skyrocket in the future. Though its very nasty to see some coins lost their 90% value but we cannot consider that it is over yet.

Not all coins are created equal there are coins that worth keeping in your wallet and forget that you have I'm glad that I have kept some of my Ethereum and sold it when it hit an all time that's 20 times profit, I have kept some coins, on my wallet coins that I think will have a good chance to make me ten ti 20 times profit, now that halving is approaching people should hodl not only Bitcoin but altcoins as well.

for potential projects, of course this is not the end of a failed project. so it never hurts to hold it for a long time, rather than we lose quite a large percentage. especially with the intention of early long-term investment, of course we must stick to the original plan, indeed this time our psychology is tested, and therefore we do not indulge in emotions for a moment

i agree some of the coins can become big someday it just takes a lot of time and we just need some patience
i also believe in it that's why if the coin is only worth a few dollars i only just leave it in my wallet

Do not mind those saying its all in the past like it will never happen again, many new projects will come into this space starting from now and the lucky ones will be the early adopters, keep doing what you do best

Yes, every coin has a chance to raise its price in the future, but I rarely find coins that can survive in the market and unexpectedly a few years later the price rises dramatically. actually this depends on the user, I mean many holders are impatient or choose to sell quickly and finally it turns out that the coins they sell have great potential in the future, on the other hand many people are in a hurry to sell because of necessity.

Holding good and high ranked coins is very safe! But all the time profit does not happen. I want to give you an example in your own way! Suppose you bought Bitcoin at 17K USD in 2017, as you believe it will hit 40K and people say 100K USD! You hold and forgot for 2 years, and you just opened your holding wallet to see how much it becomes! You see 10000 USD is gone! So, no one knows the future, hold if you can bear the loss, sell if you need money.

We all see the good ones where people bought a few coins here and there and became rich later on however people are forgetting thousands of newly printed coins that worth almost zero right now. Sure, if you bought bitcoin, ripple, ethereum, tezos and whatever else you would be rich right now so it is good to leave some there, however what if you had some coins that are right now 2345th biggest coin?

What if the coin you bought became so bad that it doesn't even worth 1 satoshi anymore and is calculated with ethereum instead?

Those are still viable possibilities that people forget but are true. So all in all, sure if you could buy the big ones, specially bitcoin, buy some and leave it be, however if you have some small coins, if you want to get rid of it nobody could say anything about it.

I think that such examples will no longer be in the future. we will not see such an interest in the future. now we can invest a few thousand dollars in the trx and the maximum they will turn into 10 thousand dollars in a year or two. such large percentages as before can no longer be found. Now the market is becoming healthier and people will not greatly increase the prices of altcoins so high

if you want to be a successful crypto holder I suggest you buy solid coins in this present bad market and hold for long term and mind you to hold successfully you can't rely on your holdings, man will always be in needy so find other means of surviving or else you will be forced to start selling one after the other

This is good advice, leaving $10 in wallet is not big value, just think of it to pay a fee. But do not expect the value of the remaining tokens in the next few years will rise high, because these tokens could become worthless.

This can be considered good or bad, depending on where we see it. Saving a few coins in the past and only selling them in the future, should be profitable, but what is happening in the market now we really cannot predict it, except for those who really observe the market price and I don't think everyone notices that. Therefore it takes some time for us to monitor market prices so that we do not feel disadvantaged later

This is if the altcoins you hold are not going to die. If it won't then probably leaving just about 2500TRX in your wallet could be worth 2500USD as well in the future. You know the DOGE doesn't have that kind of price before, I don't see it going up but since people keep trading it since it was accepted in a gambling site, a lot had been using DOGE. Now they are speculating DOGE to moon that mcaaffee is now also expecting its price to climb.

As long as your altcoins will have a market and satoshi price, it will have a value in BTC. But don't put all your hopes to it.

You don't lose anything by trying that strategy but to me that seems to be effective only for bounty hunters that use their time and not their money to get their coins, if you invest in a coin your money you do not do it to lose money you do it because you want to earn money and if that coin begins to show some problems then you're going to sell your coins and not leave anything behind because you want to recover most of your investment, but for bounty hunters this is not the problem because at worse they are going to lose a few dollars if they decide not to sell their coins and the potential profit that they could get are worth the risk.

Its not that bad since you already enjoy a profit, the bad thing here is that if you stop investing after you sold all your coins. Its ok to hold but make sure you know where to go and you have the idea on the future prices. Holding will take a lot of patience and we don’t know if the market will still go up or not, and make sure to keep on buying good coins its better not to leave the market totally.

Great to hear that you always conduct own research, this is a very important point. Talking about me, I also hold one always. By the way, are there many advanced solutions from the ones you follow these days?

Depends on whom you are asking :) I can basically reply about myself and share my thoughts here. I wouldn’t say that I have many advanced solutions to follow - 2 or 3 most attractive ones. Cause I always search for applicable ideas with real value

What are those? And why are you following these exact solutions? Please provide a bit more details

I believe it would take much time to share my thoughts on all 3, so will take the most advanced and attractive solution for myself these days - StiB. Heard of the guys? I believe that after I share their idea, there will be no “why” questions mate. Team develops Smart Contracts for P2P services like trading/ lending/ investing/ insuring/ etc... on their ecosystem primarily on Ethereum and Bitcoin to follow with Cryptos - Fiats then Cryptos - Cryptos conversions supporting the most popular conversion pairs with the latest development of the Blockchain. Of course, main mission is adoption

This sounds interesting for sure, especially if there are some benefits like low commissions and so, cause the industry itself is growing pretty fast. Let me Google the guys and get back with own thoughts, thank you for recommendation, so far impressing

History does not always repeat itself, and even though I like to be optimistic, the reality is that most of the coins out today aren't going to rise much in the future or even just vanish from the dev team deserting the coin or just more general issues that lead to the coin price severely dropping. If you've got a bit of money that you can afford to set aside for an extended period of time, though, go ahead. Not much different from a lottery ticket, but it takes longer to see the results, and an easy way to make the great volatility associated with cryptocurrencies work potentially in your favor.

This good but remember not all coins are worth holding for long term even if they are good coin; most coins that are launched on another blockchain as a start and migrated to their own blockchain always swap right? What will be the fate of someone who wished to hold for years but wasn't aware of swap. Am not arguing your points, they are valid but we need to be extremely careful of the coins we wish to hold for long term, let's always go for those that are solidly built.

All of course also very much want to make calculations that will produce something very profitable, but it must also be realistic and I agree with colleagues above that calculations like you do will be frustrating. all calculations certainly base an analysis that can be determined when looking at the movement of a coin, when to buy and when it is appropriate to sell with minimal profit or loss.

But the problem is that we can not guess which coins will be able to show the same result in the future. At that time, too, not everyone bought bitcoin and other alts. Few managed to get rich. Also now, we just have to rely on our intuition and luck.

It's pretty difficult to assume history will repeat in the same fashion. Sure, some coins may be worth a lot years from now, but at the same time they may basically vanish. It's not a bad idea to hold onto at least something, just that I would say consider it lost money.

That is why believing what your coin can be in the future is important although yes it is a super hard thing to do because once a coin don't have any progress or anything that can make you stay investing or holding it you will surely leave it and i think what happened in 2017 will not happened again in the future, a different event will take place and this should be a lesson that we need to prepare our coins so that we can have a good future in cryptocurrency.

I think this is a good recommendation as long as the altcoins are carefully selected. Because these coins, one of the first in the market, found their place in the market a long time ago, and from now on it will not be easy to find such coins in garbage. We were a small village away from everyone with very few residents. Now the population has grown considerably, so things are not as easy as before.

good advice, i agree. meaning that at any period we must have assets in the portfolio. to wait for price increases, we must prepare assets in preparation for price increases.

This is good advice because even if you do need to liquidate an asset in your portfolio for whatever reason, be it needing capital to diversify with or simply because its under performing it's always a good idea to hold onto a small percentage of it in case one day it does become worth something significant as you mention

I do not say that tron is a bad investment. Its dynamic and young CEO is doing every bit to make his project a huge success. The coin might go to the moon in the future if not at least in the near future. But in my personal opinion, I do not think any coin reaches the moon just like ripple or bitcoin as many people are getting aware of risk of investment in cryptocurrency.

Allocating your time mostly in researching is a good idea in order to pick coin where you will make investment. There are people who investing because of sentiments and they keep losing money because they do not know the information that the coin that they bought. If we will focus on studying and researching, we can easily identify the strength and weaknesses of a certain coin.

It's a good way but it should be on a certain big coin just like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Not a shadow in front of a good project could also close their project because of a trivial problem or exit scam such as IDAX. So if you want to have a long-term investment, take the top-known bitcoins or coins to avoid more risk.

I think in this case there is no such thing as good advise or bad advise. It's just a matter of technique how we manage our finances well and trust it. I have done this in NXT in 2017 and then I bought it for around $ 5,000 cheaply. And a few days later I needed money for my father's medical expenses. But I still won't sell the nxt before a good time. In short, suddenly airdrop ignis come, the price of NXT skyrocketed. I sold for $ 2.8 and made a lot of profit for me. From this I learned that whatever you choose, of course you already know the risks. As long as you are sure, just live it. This is not a matter of right and wrong, but a matter of principle.

All altcoin price is not the same how you imagine last two years, right now many altcoin become shit and do not have good price although holding for long time, I think stop waste your time with long term investment because you can use short time to get much profit because today is good price for altcoin and not have guarantee for the future or two years later become higher price.

I think it's a good suggestion to always keep a few coins in a wallet for long-term investment use. i also did it i have two bitcoin wallets. the first wallet I use to save a few bitcoins that will store until bitcoin can be bullrun again. and the second I also use to save bitcoin. but this I use for short-term investments when bitcoin has increased by 30% then I will sell it and take profits. and I also have several altcoins that I also hold.

I am personally will keep aware that altcoin and bitcoin is different. I mean from what already happen, only in a few years some altcoins is already dead and left by developer. I think that factor must be seen too. Because if altcoin already dead and delisted from market, no more chance it can accepted again because market itself wouldn't take dead coin to listed anymore. Or maybe p2p, people's trust will be decreased much if the coin already not have value.

We don't know coins future and I believe every advice is good, maybe you only in wrong time and place to begin. Even expert can make mistake but the different is the fix the strategy, test again and never repeat the same mistakes. Try to take lesson and fix your problem, see you next year.

You are lucky if the altcoin you have chosen still does have a value after a few years. But you can't be lucky most of the time right? you can simply expect that those coins you've left can be worth nothing instead of something.
You can be correct and have a point with that matter but it's not like it will happen again. You can expect and hope for the same but this time it's going to be different and IMO, I'm not expecting that the market will be the same but there's a valuable information that you have said. And that is to keep or accumulate as much as you can although your example is too low.

I am sure that if you can prepare for the bull run with having 2 wallets for bitcoin and altcoin at the same time, you will make a profit in the future. I also use what you did because I guess we will see the bull run comes again, and the possibility will always be there. We can use one wallet for a long term investment while we will have a chance to increase the bitcoin amount that we have by trading for the short term. We can sell some amount of bitcoin when the price increase so we can buy more bitcoin when the price is down.

You know what is bad? The timing. Besides you don't know and no one even knows what the future holds. For what is certain right now is that, you have to do what must done right now. Well, bad market, everything is in favorable price to purchase then purchase though if you are a man of principles, and you have certain strategies to be executed then stick with it. And let what might happened in the future, and so if the market goes up then sell. That is just how it is.

That is why i believe that those who entered crypto space in early 2017 are the most lucky ones compare to those who have been holding before 2017, those who created portfolio in early 2017 knows no hardship of holding for years, its all about timing

Timing is most important way how to know whit altcoin have to buy or to sell, many people keep holding although not good timing for altcoin have higher price, they trusted with altcoin back to higher again after timing is ended and bitcoin price going down. Never hope chance come once again because after you hold when price is up you can get much profit back by looking price will go higher.

It's all depends from how you supposed to execute your position. It's no arguments regarding to this matter, if you can keep portions of your assets and leave it for some years inside your wallet, no one knows what will be the value of your coins after. If you don't mind letting your money to stuck and let future dictate the fate of your money.

Oh, maybe you mean don't sell all of your crypto assets that don't yet have a high selling price? or hold some coins that you think have great potential in the future? yes i think this is not a bad idea, it is important for you to always renew your investment. because not all coins will be like that.

Timing is important, knowing the right time to buy, to hold or to sell can help us to maximize our gains. We can never know what will happen in the future and we are just playing probability. The higher the potential of the coin that we have, the higher the posibility that it can become valuable in the near future. Holding is good but make sure that the altcoins that you have can generate profit and not losses.

Timing is not also easy to get. That is the most impotant but no one actually know when is the right time. The only thing we need is our own judgement adding with our own analyzation with the current situation of the market. A chance to get a profit is always there. It is a matter of fact of what price you buy and how you can earn out of your investment.

good advice always set aside a little of your income to buy every potential coin in the future.
btc, tron, bnb are already examples, and they may be even higher the following year.
Who know  it will be moon  :)

This can be a good suggestion if the coins we hold are coins that have large transactions and are actively traded on the market. During this time, I chose to sell all the coins I have and will return to buy when prices look cheaper.

Knowing the perfect timing in crypto investment is really hard, to invest in any coins I always make your they are not in their ATH because it might get hard to grow higher and you will end up losing so the best time to buy coins is when they are in Red

If we compare with 2017 with now it is indeed much different and it is true that many people always compare what has happened with what is now happening and because of that they will think that what they are doing now is useless. It's better to focus on what we currently do, how we survive in this cryptocurrency market.

Well a lot of people can't seem to let go of what happened in 2017. I mean, it's possible that we'll break all time high in the future, but you should stop aiming for it in the short term. I mean it may come, yes, but it's likelier that it'll take a long wait time. And that may come when nobody expects it. Imagine if you're aiming for that in the short term and the opposite happens. Another wave of lost money for you.

It is difficult but there is a way to find out, so increase your knowledge before you start investing or trading. because many people can do it so I think you can too, it's only a matter of time for you to be able to research the right time to buy it

You are probably right.
It makes sense to keep a little different coins. Most of them, of course, will sink into oblivion, however, those that remain can rise in price by so much that it will cover costs many times.
But you can’t keep all the coins in your assets, and which one will become the champion is not known. In view of this, you should not take risks and spray too much.

there is even a strategy like 3/3/3/1 that exists. only 1 project out of 10 will be so successful that it will cover the losses that you will get from the other projects. 3 projects will bring a small profit. 3 projects will not bring any profit and 3 projects will bring you losses

Being strategic is very important here in the crypto world. Whenever you are in great need of money, no matter how huge the amount you need, always make sure you will leave atleast 30% of it in your wallet. By doing so, you can recover what you retrieved from your investment and make it grow higher once again. If you are going to make an investement, you should not let your emotions take over your decision making because it will only lead you to the worst case scenario.

You have done good research to tell us. You are right to say that we should keep some part of coins, instead of selling all because we never know when their value becomes good again so keep trust on your holdings and investments until and unless you don't have the option to sell rather than hold.

the main consideration must be the liqudity and that's a must and about the large transaction and it can't be determined whether that was a good coin or not. But the best advice should be to buy anything when it reached the bottom price. Just try to liquidate some and then try to keep the remaining amounts in our wallet.

I don't think it's purely destiny. Because you create your own destiny. If you work harder, you can die as a billionaire. It's not like you'll become a billionaire without efforts. Yes we don't knows what will happen to a coin for the coming days, months, and years. But if we think carefully and wise enough with our actions in selling coins, we can earn bigger profit than might even lead us to be a billionaire.

If you know how it works, we just to be smart about our decisions with our coins for a better result

Hodl is not an easy thing and yes it is true that holding altcoins is a very good way to make huge profits in crypto but sometimes it can turn to loss too, some coins are good for short term hold and some for long term hold, you have to figure that out before deciding to hold for long

Hmm, honestly you are making more sense due to your examples. No one really knows the exact future of a particular coin, maybe today it was just a mediocre coin but eventually boom in the future who knows? However, today's scenario are very different way back pioneer days of crypto. Tokens nowadays don't get much support. It's pretty obvious actually, like for example hoarders usually dump their token holdings with no hesitation after being enlisted on exchanges. See? They're not supporting the coin in the long run, they're only up to its present worth. So how a certain coin stabilize if that is what always happening?

The bottom line is we can't easily assume that the future of tokens at present will have the same fate as eth, bch, xrp do. Though they got same or even better characteristics than those old coins, there is still a big gap between of them simply because old alts got higher reputation than the others :).

in the sense that at least we must have funds withheld without having to have a plan to sell them because at least these funds can be used for urgent purposes or long term investments that are indeed to be abandoned or forgotten, it is a good idea and at least we certainly have it on a wallet or an exchange used in the past

You're very right about that — destiny. Destiny is what drives everyone, anyone that is meant to be rich will one day become rich no matter what. It's not everyone that is rich today that became rich through cryptocurrency. The world's richest men we know today, none of them had anything to do with cryptocurrency, rather they were into businesses that are completely different. So no matter what you're into, you will always arrive where you're meant to be. And that's the truth and nothing else.

Man you will never understand. Sometimes, people have no other option because that's their last card (money), and they need it badly for solving a problem that they are having at that moment. You can only be able to store money in your cryptocurrency wallet when you have enough to do so, and you know for sure that you can leave that money there without worrying about whether price is decreasing or increasing. If that's you, then you invest an amount and leave it there for years or till the next bull run happens.

In equity trading, there is a well-known quote that 'every stock has a day', just wait for that day.
If I am not wrong you are referring to HODL. If you can keep your nerves under control you won't lose any money. Those who put there believe in BTC at the start and keep on accumulating are now whales. Every today I see the price of Bitcoin is very reasonable but most of us rather buying are uncertain about its future.

It would take more than 5 to 10 years before you'll see the tokens you left that's worth 50$ to go up to thousands if its possible. Or its also possible that it will end up ZERO. You'll never know the project could SWAP their tokens to another platform and this happened already in some coins. When they swap and forget the old coins that were in the platform very different that what you have, what would the price of the coins you were holding for 5 years?  

A good advice would be to stick to the top coins like BTC, ETH, BNB and LTC. You can't go wrong with these investments.

I agree with you. Now is not the best time to sell your crypto assets. Right now we are at the lowest point of the crypto market and the next growth will definitely give an opportunity to earn. As for me now, most of the crypto assets can be bought at a very interesting price. Personally, I try to keep all the crypto assets received as much as possible and I hope that in the near future my expectations will be rewarded.

actually that's not a bad idea, put some tokens in your wallet for the future, who knows in the future the price of your coins can soar as high as the sky. But I personally prefer coins that clearly exist and develop like the top coins on the market.

Your presumption is not bad but the major problem there is having a high standard of knowledge to know the right coins or tokens to be kept for a long time because coins and tokens which are centralized (XRP, TRON, NEO, EOS, BSV, BCH etc) or don't have a reputable support won't generate a good result and if care is not taken it will lead to loses.

In crypto space you can't actually predict which coin will bring big gains in future, holding is risky and you might end up with nothing after several years, its better to have different type of good altcoins and stop putting your eggs in one basket

That's right, and I totally agree with what you say, because for the time being it would be better to have some good altcoin than just putting eggs in one basket, even though both of them are at risk.

I will say its a good advice if you can leave some coins and forget , but do not forget your login details .  who knows  those worthless coins today may make you a millionaire in the nearest future. I raley sell all my coins , i must always leave a few in my wallet.

If one egg is bitcoin I have no doubt even though there will be another decline. I only have a few altcoins for daily trading but the investment, I still believe in bitcoin for the long term. I have altcoin and USDT for my daily trading, not for the long term. while my long-term assets are only on bitcoin.

I agree with you and you shouldn't be buying or investing with your time to earn coins if you just plan to sell them. You wasting your time then. If you invest then you must invest and wait until the price is right.
Too many people get into the ind set that all tokens or coins besides bitcoin are trash and so the assume very little out of good coins and projects that have made it. Being use to dumping they would have no coins for the future.
I agree that you should also have a few extra coins from you investments that you can sell off as need be but never sell off the bulk of your investment.

It would be nice to invest your money in coins that would not only generate income, possibly even dividends, but also when it would be manly to sell part of the coins if financial difficulties arose.  But to date, not a single coin in the cryptocurrency market meets such criteria, unless of course you take the USDT coin for example.  But she doesn’t have any passive income, but they have a very good almost stable price.

Honestly, your idea is good but have ever thought about what will happen to the altcoin market once the total 21million coins of bitcoin are mined?
You should accumulate altcoin with great potential either as a long term asset but for your daily trading I will advice you to use stablecoin that's it not back with fiat currency instead of using USDT.

It is not totally bad to sell all of your coins in your wallet because it is still into your ownership and you are the only one to decide of what you must do to your coins. It will be regretful at some point of time but if you really in need of money and you do not have anything, the call for selling all of those just to sustain your need will be your last resort. But if you can still manage to hold your coins and find another source of income, why not? It is really regretful to sell your coins because we do not know when and what moment of time the price might go up unexpectedly. That is why I am just still into holding my coins and seek another source of income for a while just for me to sustain all my needs because I do really hope so that one day, the market price of the coins I keep for a long period of time will be worthy.

Most of the people here bought altcoins not in the best moment and now are watching their shitcoin portfolios trying not to cry. Many of this tokens dropped down ten times or even more. So the question whether they should sell now or wait a couple of years longer is still very actual :)
