Seeing Avalanche lose 80+% of its value compare to its all time high looks like a very tempting buying opportunity to me, if you are given the chance to only pick a wallet with 5000 pieces of Cardano or Avalanche which one will you go for and why?.

The pump for AVAX was a lot and it was more than $100. While for Cardano, it's $3. Although supply-wise, ADA 33B of supply but I think reaching back to $3 is manageable.

Whilst for AVAX, I think it will have a hard time reaching back to $100+ as it's past ATH. Don't you have any other option, honestly I'll just take any of the two or both bitcoin and ethereum.

I will prefer to pick ADA, i know that if AVAX was a very solid blockchain but this doesn't meant if ADA was bad. My main concern was on the AVAX that is still have connection with the terra luna blockchain. This is giving a very bad image to the blockchain. I will prefer ADA at this moment.

AVAX may still in a good rate to buy but there are so many things that may make the buyers to think again and again. This coin is not a safe heaven for now.

Is not it better to get a coin that has no connection with a project that alreayd collapse?

Both project are perfect in their own roadmap. I don’t see any point comparing them. If I were you then I would invest more than 70% into avalanche and then rest of the money into cardano. But this percentage is in relation with the two pair which you told me. I would always go with bitcoin 50% investment and then rest of the 50% will be divided into my left over coins and in the above case it’s AVAX followed by Cardano. Moreover, you don’t have to worry about current drop in the AVAX, it’s for every coin out there and whole market is suffering.

No matter what I will sell half of it and buy the half or majority of it with Bitcoin but if there will be a two options I think I would go with the Avalanche network, I see that many projects and even gambling sites are now integrating the Avalanche to their system and most of the project are now in the Avalanche if I am not mistaken but in reality either of the two is a good investment and you won't get wrong if you choose any of the two choices in terms of investment.

Both are solid but I didn't know that one has a connection to terra. It's only a connection anyway but it does not mean that they will have the same plan. You can just ignore this fact and continue investing in avax. Avax did not show any shady acts lately, right? So, it's fall in its price can be natural only and is caused by the bear market.

The two coins are close to being a top coin but I don't consider the two as a safe haven, sorry. For me there is only one safe haven and that is bitcoin but no worries as I would still invest on the two coins here only for the sake of diversification. They are still a better pick than the coins that I don't totally know.

I will choose 5000 $AVAX, the reason is very simple, if we compare the MC of Cardano (ADA) and Avalanche (AVAX), then we will find that the MC of $ADA is higher than $AVAX, this will narrow the room for $ADA to grow . meanwhile, since $AVAX has a lower MC, this will widen $AVAX's room to grow.

I think that I will go to pick Avalanche  (AVAX). The two are actually good projects, but AVAX has ATH that is more than $146. If we are buying this coin right now and holding them for the long term until the bullish era, hopefully, the price at least can come back stringer. If the price can be back at least $100, it will be worthier, right?  ;D
I know that the rank of ADA is higher than AVAX, but in this case, it may be about the profits that we may gain. However, all choice is in our hand and each choice will require risks.
Actually, I have ADA also and still holding for long term because no need to sell them right now at the very dropped rate.

The connection is harming AVAX they are crashing just seven days ago they made a huge drop of -39.05 just when the market is dipping and it continues to go down, I have Avax and I continue to hold and in fact, add a little more, I checked the positive and negative feedbacks on Avax's performance in the next 12 months onwards and so far there is still a lot of positive feedback coming from seasoned traders and signal makers like this article.

I'd definitely choose ADA it's like no brainer, the community is huge, there are many influencers that are supporting this altcoin and holding it, the market capitalization is quite high, this guarantees that this altcoin gonna exists for a long time in the future, basically keeping away my investment from turning into ashes, and also quite popular smart contract platform for newer projects.
Although there's slim difference between the two honestly, but it seems ADA is just better option compared with the rest.

I will choose Cardano because it is a promising coin and one of the best cryptocurrencies for investment in addition to being a coin that has great potential and has NFTs and Defi applications. You can also stake your ADA coins that you have and earn additional income at little or no cost, so I can tell you that you will achieve great gains from Cardano in the long term and when market conditions improve.

Maybe that's the advantage of the Cardano coin (ADA) because it gets a strong push from the Defi side and also NFT so people don't have any doubts about maintaining ADA and I also agree if they invest in ADA coins because this loyalty passes, of course the benefits they get if they continue  be patient.

If it is a mandatory choice, my option would definitely be avax. Because I like the way their teams work. But I don't think the declines are over, so I think it's too early to invest. There may be good opportunities for those who will buy and sell in the short term, but these are the numbers that will drag on in the long run. Apart from these, if the decreases I expect occur, I will divide all my investments by investing in bitcoin and ethereum, especially ethereum.

The only difference in these two is that Charles is busy on social media while AVAX team seem very silent. Looking at the charts both have the potential to already go up in the next few months. Money wise, AVAX would be preferred because by the next bull market, it is possible to go beyond its previous ATH. You would need much money to get that 5000 AVAX however.

Don't buy altcoins in middle of bear market because altcoins will be divided many times, and lose their values more dramatically than Bitcoin.

In middle of bear market, you should either keep your capital in fiat currencies or in Bitcoin only.

Then when bottom confirms, you can buy Bitcoin and top altcoins like Ethereum and BNB. For tier two and lower tier altcoins, you must wait for first rallies from Bitcoin and Ethereum to avoid bull traps.

Buying altcoins especially shit coins in middle of bear market will cause bankruptcy for your portfolio.

For me, I am really disappointed with Avalanche. Maybe I just bought it at the wrong time. But for me, I think Avalanche is just a hype, there are already a lot of alternatives for Ethereum Avalanche is another one.
Most smart contract platforms last year performed very well, especially Solana.
Avalanche for me is also a good buy during this dump, as long as Ethereum will still have some problems with scalability Avalanche is still good to buy during this sale.

Anything that was trading at the bottom price must be considered as opportunity no matter what kind of coin as long as these are major coins and still worth to buy. i know that some people may feel disappointed caused by they were buying at the peak price but yeah.
That is how people feel frustated caused by buying at the top. So, i don't care anymore about that. I meant avalanche was offering very big opportunity along with ada coz both traded at the bottom price.
I just take both of coins as my portfolios.

If you compare AVAX and ADA, of course, these two types of crypto, including the target of investors, even though they are currently experiencing a bear market, but that means AVAX and ADA are not good.

Indeed AVAX has occupied the high price of $146, if you look at the Max Supply, AVAX only has 720,000,000, while Carnado 45,000,000,000, which means, AVAX has a greater chance of winning, I definitely prefer AVAX for the opportunity.

Between the two? I would pick ADA in a heart beat, I mean this project has been with us and has made gains and there are a lot in the pipeline. There was even a time that cyber criminals are copying ADAs website just to scam people because it is one of the hottest project in 2020-2021.

I have nothing against AVA, but it seems it need to built its reputation and there should be a huge support or consensus from the community. Not just a simply pump and dump project.

In picking out of those two, is it a necessity to know them both?
Because I'd pick Cardano over Avalanche but it's going to be a biased choice because I know more about the former than the latter.
I think many will have that kind of choice considering how popular it became from different hype that happened and that includes being the next Ethereum of the cryptocurrency industry. There was even a discussion on social media about ADA being "the next big crypto".
So you might not find a perfect answer in this comparison without being biased.

I wouldn't pick either. I don't think the progress that Cardano made over the last 7 years is significant enough. They just aren't competitive tech wise to other projects like FTM, MATIC and CNDL. As to Avalanche, I don't hold any and I preferred to participate in DeFi on Fantom in the past instead.

In my opinion AVAX and ADA are coins that have great potential and prospects in the future, but if you look at the supply of each of these coins on the market, then I prefer AVAX because the supply is smaller than ADA, of course the coin has a great opportunity to be able to increase even higher in the future.

The two coins are good of course, but for me I choose Cardano, although the market is currently in a big bearish cycle but big projects like Cardano and Avalanche have a great future regardless of the current price drop.
Cardano is a great project with a great vision for the future with an energetic team looking to constantly develop the network, we will surely see a big rise when the market recovers.
Also Avalanche has a good project despite the big drop at the moment, but this may be a great opportunity to buy from this point and wait for the market to improve

Honestly speaking I would buy both 50% each because diversification is always good one should not depend only on one coin. But my friends there are some other good options that are old coins tested and trusted even you can check the top 10 coins if you find anyone good can consider adding that also.

They are of the closest comparison and similar market status...but for me, I'd choose Avax this time. Though Cardano has existed for a quite long time in the market, however, my trust is in favor of Avalanche.
Honestly, in investing we don't just talk about market performance but also we consider what we feel. I know both of them to have the potential and no regrets about choosing any of them. But as I've said, choose the project that you think was good.

ADA and AVALANCHE were competitors. Both have almost the same spesification. It's hard to pick which one the best from both of them. ADA is far stable compared with avalanche in term of the price but avalanche is still undervalued at this moment caused by it was going back again to the bottom. I will pick avax as a good bet for long term although some people said that this was bad for now but i don't care so much about that caused by these days it's better to make money in short term rather than long term.

Perhaps, I will prefer Cardano over Avalanche because I see the potential for Cardano to develop will be better than Avalanche. But if I could choose both, I'd choose Cardano and Avalanche ;D

But what is clear, the two altcoins are not two that have a high potential to increase because there are ethereum and bnb, which are still above the two altcoins. So ethereum and bnb will be my focus on altcoins.

It is not only Avalanche, bitcoin and other top altcoins are going down as well.
So, it is indeed the right time to buy some of them, that is the chance to buy low in this bear market.
Personally, i prefer to use polygon than avalanche, but it is ok if you want to buy avalanche.

Well, I am supposed to sa that these coins are worth buying, maybe if I have some spare of money I would choose Avax instead of Cardano. I really see the opportunity with them but for now, I have been spending more on Bitcoin and ETH, which kinda be the best choice in this current situation.

I think you have already heard and read some replies, it is up to you now to decide as per to see that we have different opinions. I would just to say that you also have to listen to your heart and use your instinct as this sometimes works.

Both AVAX and ADA are really potential, if anyone is holding I think should hold, should not sell at this time. To start choosing coins to buy at this point, as you said choose only bitcoin or ethereum, only these two coins can guarantee our safety during bear season. If the market keeps falling a lot of altcoins will be divided many times and it will probably never recover after that, bitcoin and ethereum not.

Basically everything depends on the market trend. AVAX would definitely be a good investment if the market came from a bear to bull. But many of us cannot be confident about the stability of the market so our target is to invest in either BTC or Ether. However AVAX is a reliable platform which is far below from the all time high so investing here will be profitable at the moment.

Both coins have huge potential so both would be good picks. I would invest half on my funds in ADA and half for AVAX. I've seen how these coins developed and reached their ATHs as so I believe that they could reach more when the market recovers. As for me, it will be a good time to buy these coins.

I think it's really hard to choose between the two because they are both very powerful and valuable, and I'd like to have both. But at the moment, the market is bearish and if I get the chance I will go this time with ADA because when the market recovers from the new during the oversold surely it will rise again to reach higher peaks than it is

Buying at the top doesn't even have to be the end case for these people. They need to learn that where you are buying doesn't matter, how you approach it matters. For example, if you have 10k to invest, if you buy bitcoin at 68k with all of your 10k then you made a big mistake.

But, if you bought 2.5k worth of it at 68k, and 2.5k more at 50k, then 2.5k more at 40k then 2.5k more at 30k, then you dropped your average to around 45k, and yes that is not great, but it is much better than 68k as you can see, 20k+ lower. This is why you should always reconsider DCA method, it would allow you to make sure that you do not end up buying at the top price.

ADA is old already and it still performing well. While Avax has a growing performance that caught the attention of many investors. Choosing any of them is still a good decision and feel no regrets. But what really matters is we make an investment in potential altcoins that we know will give us a profit (a big profit is possible) if we wait for the Bullrun. Importantly, we know how to manage investment otherwise, even choosing highly potential coins could make us losses if mismanage.

cardano seems to bounce back quite higher compared with avalanche.
I'd say that if I were given such chance then i'd definitely go all in with cardano for the simple fact that it seems performing quite well even in the middle of bearish, it's just it has no choice but to follow the flow of the market.
but honestly you couldn't go wrong investing in both of them since they are already good enough for anyone to invest, and it seems they aren't gonna repeat the same mistake that luna has.

^ Probably ADA has potential if you compare it to AVAX, ADA has proven recently while the one that you compare is the new one.
But to be honest, I won't give a large allocation of my investment an altcoins like this, I am still on BTC which is my first priority, and the next one if there is an extra capital, I will go with altcoins, something like 25% total of my investment allocation was on altcoins.
If you will invest both much better, I did not see wrong in AVAX too, I cannot tell my prediction but it seems this coin will also have community support that possible will pumped soon.

I wouldn't buy AVAX or ADA for a long term investment. I think other projects will do better, like Flare and CNDL. Both of these projects are technically superior and will offer a better return IMO.

I will choose AVA over ADA because, honestly, after many years of witnessing the birth and development of many different platforms, I do not have too much faith in the ecosystem that ADA is building. It may not be the right time, but it's still a big question for many, myself included, when ADA's own ecosystem will be more competitive. However, on a positive note, both AVA and ADA have provided excellent returns since my entry into this market.

After we saw the altcoin market weakening in the past week, today we can breathe a bit of relief after the movement of some altcoins seems to have shown signs of improving, from some altcoins that are starting to improve it can be seen that Cardano looks be rising quite high with almost 14.76 percent strengthening in the last 2 days, it seems that those who bought when the price of cardano fell in the last week today look quite happy because they were able to get a big profit.

In fact, investing in the cryptocurrency market is still very risky. We don't know if the project will succeed despite the quality and authenticity of the development team. Therefore, we must invest the amount that we can afford to lose. We have all seen what happened with Project Luna which was a promise but caused a huge loss for investors.

Luna was a rare case. It was because of the failed model of Luna/UST by maintaining the peg 1:1 between a stablecoin, which needs a lot of trust and concrete proof of real money to a crypto that usually exists and is priced on the belief of investors. If you base your investment on the logic "it lost 80% of its value already, can not go lower, buy now" then again we have to use the Luna case here: Luna drop more than 99% of its value from ATH. Many bought in the dip at $1-10 and lost all of their money since it went lower than that.

Avalanche is a currency that has lost a lot of liquidity, I don't see how an investment can be made there, you just have to remember what happened to LUNA, it is obvious that now the market is very susceptible and it is incredible, but there are people who have become afraid to invest in altcoins due to their high LUNA drop, they are not all, but I think most have chosen to be involved with BTC, BTC is the only investment that is safe, there is no other that is the same, for me it is the safer and as a second option that I know is safe is ETH.

I'll go with Avalanche, even though I like Cardano but in terms of roadmap delivery, it looks like Avalanche performs better than Cardano.  This is an indicator of possible faster and bigger growth for the Avalanche market.  Cardano somehow has bad records delivering its roadmap since there are moments where they keep on stalling their promised development.


I highly agree with you, investing in BTC and ETH is a no-brainer, but the option given by OP to choose from is just these two projects.

Even between ETH and BTC, I would choose ETH over BTC right now since ETH has the ETH 2.0 milestone in the future to rally and pump accordingly. BTC doesn't have a lot of leg to stretch anymore compare to ETH, at least in short term in my opinion.
