Hi everyone! It would be great if everyone can say a word on what altcoins are you guys planing to invest or already invested in with the hope of selling in to the bull market next year. Personally my method has been investing in new coins with strong VC backings and low float like ZRO, SUI etc also I like SOLCHAT due to its use case.

Didn't hear about SOLCHAT, but I hold my TON, ETH, and SOL for the time being, I think they all will deliver during the highest point of the next Bull cycle, whenever it may be ;D
Accumulating them would be beneficial for everybody, though I don't think they will jump as high as the relatively new alts you mentioned.

What an interesting investment strategy you mentioned! Altcoins with venture capital (VC) support and low float are often considered to have large upside potential. ZRO, SUI, and SOLCHAT are examples of altcoins that do have their own appeal, especially if they have a solid use case. Coins with VC backing usually have a strong network and access to resources for further development, which can provide more confidence in the long term. However, the risks in investing in altcoins must still be considered, especially due to the volatility of the crypto market. For anyone else, are there any altcoins that have also caught your attention, perhaps with great potential in the coming year?

Here's what on my list;

• Ethereum
• BNB
• Dogs

These are what currently I have on my stash but I am planning to have more so that I will be able to recover this bull run. Because in the past, instead of making a profit, I've missed that opportunity for selling too early.

ZRO and SUI, I am seeing its community and it hasn't pumped a lot. But with solchat, I don't know that and looks like it has fallen already from $19 and now it's $1.

New projects are very unpredictable mate even they  looks very promising on their platform because it still depends on the market or should i say investors ,after all. 

For me much better to make a hard research when it comes picking a new project especially long term , or too good to be true, i must rely on small project that has already improvement coz surely it will have a return in the future..

SOLCHAT is an app designed for communication between wallets on Solana

Not having a lot of altcoins in the portfolio because altcoins are a little risky for me in the sense that I won't have a lot of altcoins to invest in, one of the main investments in altcoins is Ethereum and maybe I'm looking at EIGEN, maybe the token will be higher later.

ZRO is still strong from yesterday's price decline now this token is back again compared to several other new altcoins that are in line but do not show a good increase, well here I am always careful and analyze the tokens to be invested.

I'm holding full meme tokens now. And my tokens are MEW, Neiro, Ponke, Pepe. I like to hold full meme tokens in my portfolios. Even in a bearish trend, they could recover from their lows. They're also having very fair distribution as well. And i put less on the utility tokens such as ZRO, TWT, and ETH. But they are not performing as good as meme tokens.

This is my first time hearing that there is a SOLCHAT. It doesn't look good to me; it's because that token has very low daily trade volume and is listed mostly on dex.

You might already have a list of coins worth holding long-term, for instance ETH and BNB. while many prefer sticking with established altcoins, I personally lean towards ton only. I predict a major shift for toncoin in the near future. There are plenty of signs that Toncoin could really shine in the next bullish market.

TON has shown rapid growth, especially with projects like Telegram mini apps, and upcoming days only picking up more momentum.

Actually, I don't plan to invest in altcoin. I accumulate everything to Bitcoin right now. but I still have some altcoins that I still hold which were originally assets that I traded but became my holding because of some trading conditions that were not good enough for me.
Some assets that I still hold and most likely will be my holding until the next bull run are ETH, BNB, and SOL. actually, I also used to hold some memecoins, but I have sold them and left some of the top altcoins in the market right now.

You're so brave with memecoins, but I'm the opposite - it's the memecoins that are hard to recover from and even tend to end up worthless if you're chasing a newly launched meme.

Maybe you get the benefits of memecoin so say so, it's okay as long as you think it's profitable and not all memes end badly, but in my view memecoin is more risky than some other altcoins.

In bali the memecoins you invest, it is clear that when memecoins this rally is unstoppable the profits can multiply.

Okay, it's like a messaging app but in a web3 environment. I'll take a look at that since I am not in depth with the sol network and the apps that are built there, it might be an interesting thing to look at. But, I won't be getting into the token. There's a likelihood that once the trend with the telegram apps, if it's possible to build some apps on that platform then it could be the next go-to of most of the developers just to keep up with the trend and continue it when it's no longer working with the telegram because of some issues that scares users there. Actually, the criminals are the only ones scare of it.

SOLCHAT has a solid use case but low mc

Personally, I think ETH and BNB are pretty good altcoins to hold at the moment. I think the increase will also be very high when the bull market occurs, especially if many altcoins rise above their ATH, then it is very profitable for people who hold popular coins. Although the price is quite high, the risk is not that big. However, until now I am still considering altcoins with cheaper prices.

Bag holding any altcoin is the worst thing anybody can do specially when you are talking about a long term bag holding for a supposedly "bull market" that may never come. Because during the very LONG period of time that you are bag holding, that altcoin will continue to dump slowly but surely.

Just look at any altcoin in long run. From etheruem that is the biggest and most popular shitcoin and was once worth 0.15BTC and now is only worth a small fraction of that all the way to the most unknown shitcoin. They all get dumped.

You should only get into the altcoin market when the pumps begin and sell to get out before the dumps begin.

So you're not invested in altcoins at all?

I consider ETH, TON, and SOL, and I think it all will come together in the future, up until 2025 we should just wait, and then there should be a change in the situation to the green ;D
That is my view of it, of course, and the profits made from the big, top alts would be smaller from the newer, ones, but it would be much more stable for the investment made.

Kaspa all the way! lol

Why is it so special?

I would like to hear more about it too.

Sounds good, but it has dumped hard in price. From having an ATH of $19.32 in March to a falling price of $1.08 currently. How do we explain its tremendous fall in price for those who bought Solchat at a high price? They should hold to Solchat without knowing whether Solchat would skyrocket back to its previous high prices.

Well, altcoin investment is a risky investment that someone would lose some, and gain some. That's more reason not to go into it without thinking about investing with spare money. Take note, not every altcoin invested in would give desirable profits.

Most people should prefer to keep it a secret, they won't tell you all the altcoins they are holding.
Well, I myself are holding the top altcoins as my main investment in altcoins (Ethereum, BNB coin, Cardano, and Polygon). However, I also have few random altcoins. I believe the best altcoin for holding now is Ethereum. It still doesn't reach its ATH even if it is still the most favorite altcoin for investment. Some experts predicted the price can be around $10k in the next altcoin season. So, there is still a hope of huge profits.

DWYOR

Is SUI new altcoin?
As far as I know, SUI was created in 2023. This altcoin is already more than a year in the market. Not sure if it is still a new altcoin.
I'm not familiar with SOLCHAT, I'm also not really sure with its fundamental. But you probably view it from another side, it is actually your right to invest in any crypto coin.

Short sighted maybe, though if you are into popping into existence a new coin (or token even maybe, since nowadays a lot of casual passers-by seem to conflate and/or confuse the terms) any time you feel like it that seems natural.

If you are into a coin - maybe even its main supporter in the literal sense that almost the entire column of buy offers for it are your offers - yet are not the original [whatever: team, group, author, developer, etc] thus never yet owned every single one of the minted coins, then hey the more it dumps the closer you are to having "bought back" all those "IOUs". So actually tokens might be better than coins in some ways, since usually with coins if you own even over 51% you have yourself become potentially a threat.

If other parties can or did "mint" your money (IOUs) that can make them harder to "redeem" aka "buy back", which maybe it would be very helpful to think of that also being "aka buy" in the sense that if when you consider buying any of them you think to yourself by buying them you are become at the least a dealer of them thus should plan to be able to give back your own end-customers you sell it to a decent percentage "return policy"; or an "issuer" of them in the sense that if you eventually do sell them you are issuing them back "into the wild" increasing the chance who-ever bought them from you turns out to be a "dumper" who will trash the buy-sides thus the value of any you still hold.

Surely one's objective on getting involved in any implementation of IOUs / coins / tokens ought to be to make them more valuable than they were when you found them; and if you do issue them yourself that ought to be particularly true.

When getting into the big alts you get closer and closer, as you get bigger and bigger, to "might as well just go play the Forex markets" since unless you are a multibillionaire of a scale enough to singlehandedly unbalance the pound sterling as some guy did some decades ago you probably cannot really do a whole lot yourself to help ensure the currency you are working with will if you have anything to say about it be going up or sure as heck trying to.

The whether you have anything to say about it part though is where the bigger they get the less you are probably going to be able to say about it, oops clearly in that common phrase say should be read as do, I suppose...

-MarkM-

EDIT oops I forgot that going into this post I intended to also comment on the quote's second part, where I noticed the point is they went down relative to bitcoin regardless of the fact that fiat went down, as fiat does and even is often designed to, against darn near everything thus is no basis for a comparison at all.

Yes it is but the point is it hasn't gone through a proper bull market yet.

I’m holding Ethereum, Solana are a large number of less well known meme coins & tokens. I will try to time the market well & dump then all for more Bitcoin & take some fiat out. I am mostly Bitcoin only but I do play with a very small allocation of my portfolio in Altcoims but I don’t really believe in any of them. I just use them to flip into more Bitcoin & cash.

You can hold some BNB, ETH, Dogecoin, Solana, Matic and Ton. I am not holding any of them but  just Bitcoin. The alt coin i have in my portfolio are shitcoins which I can not recommend to anyone.

need to be considered before starting to dive into the market, such as Solchat when it first appeared, I always followed the market price and entered it, but the price decline that continued to decline in Solchat was very burdensome, indeed in altcoins it is risky but sometimes offers quite high profits for a while.

I recently got on with Notcoin and then Dogs, although I have been holding on to some BNB and TON for sometime now in the hope that before or by the end of this year it's going to rain bulls. I missed the last circle for personal reasons and don't want to miss this time around but then I am still careful to invest in with some low sum of funds as I really get skeptic with altcoins but truth remains that they have high returns in profit if you get it right.

TON seems to famous among the members of this community

I have invested in Ethereum and Solana few months ago, because I have strong confidence on them that they will bring good results when the bullish season take place  next season and there is nothing will change my mind to trade them now until their price increase higher. I can seen you are taking a big risk on altcoins investment OP, because investing your funds on new altcoins can make investors to experience what will make them to conclude that new altcoins and old altcoins are the same which is not true because it is every difficult for old altcoins to disappoint their investors. I don't think, I will invest another funds on altcoins, because I know that Ethereum and Solana will definitely give me what I want when the price hit higher in the market.

Can anyone please explain me the hype around TON lately?

I mean you should know why it's so, TON at this period is one of the mainstream altcoins that's enjoying a growing community generally not just in the forum and  whose network chain is basically what almost all the tap to earn airdrop projects on telegram as associated with. So the coin appear to have a potential in the future hence the fame it enjoying. Obviously the coin value has been doing good even before all of these telegram mini app tapping this year 2024.

 Whats your target for Solana?

It's about the apps that are built inside telegram which is the main business of TON. So, let's call it TON network.

And those apps are for the airdrops, these are tap games that are easy to play with but you get significant points as you play the game.

When the project is ready for token generation, they're relying on those numbers for how much you'll receive. So that's pretty much why it's trending.

I don't know why everyone is trying to make Sui looks like another project that is a competition against Aptos and sol but what has been happening behind doors is institutional investors buying and will eventually fade out because people are already selling the news. ZRO is also good but the start of the project is not nice, they also deny fulfill aidrop promises to people, team who lie can't be rely on because they are not trustworthy people.

I want you to look at Ton ecosystem, but the Ton and also Notcoin particularly. Durov can't be in France forever, he will be release and at worst fine by the French government and if we see bull run by 2025, that news will trigger Ton ecosystem to have a nice run and I expected any tokens on the network to have a good run of their money during that time.

You can also be an altcoin investment strategy very profitable. Look for new coins with strong outstanding capital and low float. Coins that are coins like ZRO and SUI generally mean a huge growth factor and maybe more visibility could present unique opportunity, especially if it attracts in the market. In addition, your interest in SOLCHAT because it is now being used speaks to the value of that return in making a decision as to which investment to make. Projects that truly solve real-world problems seem to be doing better in the long run. Will you be looking to established altcoins as well as these new entrants?


Now, you also did present many interesting points. Indeed, Sui has the relative family ties with Aptos and Solana but one cannot diminish whatever individual he built up for the community and whatever is in the pipeline for him. Of the issues on the transparency of projects such as ZRO, some may include: Trust in your team is a determinant of long-term success. Your suggestion to consider Ton's background, especially Durov's potential legal troubles add another dimension. If market conditions align with the circumstances given for the bull run in 2025, then this will open excellent opportunities to Ton and Notcoin holders.

obviously you are only promoting those shitcoins of yours because there is none of those are on our lists  but giving the benefits of the post? i am still holding my strong coins such as?

ETHEREUM

Ripple

Solana

Cardano

and Dogecoin

those are the altcoins that will stay in my wallet till the bullrun happens next year.

Invest as in "buy and hold", no I have never done that.
The only thing I have ever done with altcoins has been trading them. All short term because I try to avoid the risks involved with the pump and dump market.

This is what I usually do with altcoins to I trade them since its hard to trust those asset since we are not really so sure if they are reliable and won't do any rug pull schemes. I only do that buy and hold Bitcoin since its proven and tested that whatever happen to the market this coin will remain running strong. Some got hype for the idea that those altcoins will also go the same and hit big figures the same with bitcoin, but to many things needed to watch or consider before it happen since there's huge chance that those altcoins will go scam first before it reach to same like bitcoin level.

So much better if they do nice decision and sell those altcoin when they are gaining profits. Waiting posses huge risk since if they play cool around with it there's instances that they might lose their hard earned money with it.

Yeah. Another reason why I have used this strategy in my trades is to maximize profitability.

You can go to your favorite exchange or one of those coin listing websites like coinmarketcap and sort their list based on 24 hour change %. Do that every day for a certain period of time and you will notice that each day a different shitcoin is pumped. Today it is X pumping 300%, tomorrow it will be Y pumping 300% and the next day will be Z pumping 300%. If you buy and bag hold X you will miss on 600% additional profit and if X gets dumped you lose money on that as well.
So it is best to ride the 300% pump of X today, then dump it and move to Y the next day to ride that 300% pump and do the same with Z and end up making 900% profit!

Of course I should clarify that 300% is just an example. Not all pumps are that big and you won't be able to earn the maximum profit from each pump and you may lose money in one of the steps but that's pretty much the strategy that is superior to bag holding and hoping for a rise in long run, in my opinion.

Just interested, what's a short term for you, regarding the alts? Let's say, ETH or SOL.

Thats a good trading strategy but chasing green candles can be risky

Bitcoin obviously is the one that I hold the most of. However after that, ETH, ADA, AVAX, SOL, LTC and just a tiny bit of DOT, but like 30-40 dollars I think nothing big at all, it just happened to stay there in my exchange wallet and I didn't want to disturb it, felt like it didn't really worth that much attention so I am not going to bother touching that. Not that DOT will grow to be huge, I know it won't be good, but just it doesn't worth it.

Bitcoin is the one that I care about the most, it is literally the best investment I can think of, if I have to sell every other coin and just hold bitcoin then I would do that without regret, but I know others could have big increases with some hyped news, so I am holding them just in case as well.

What? If anything I think the ones mentioned are the ones we should expect to rise for sure once the entire crypto industry go to a more positive hike. We do not know if these new coins or tokens will be of any good and it is so rare to see projects reach at least a dollar let alone more. Maybe you can earn from these new cheap projects since you can accumulate more but I would not expect a lot of them to reach high prices.

I usually just depend on airdrops if I want to hold some new tokens instead of buying a lot and then when it does not reach the price, I expect it to, be left with a whole lot of useless tokens.

How sure are you that we will be seeing bull runs next year, or is it written anywhere that bull runs will be happening by 2025? I know all of us are expecting a bull run to happen, but we shouldn’t just be too confident about when the bull run will be happening. I don’t really advise people to invest in altcoins because the risk is just too much, it’s better to just invest in bitcoin and just hold, but if anyone is investing in altcoins, then it’s just better to invest in strong altcoins that have been in the market for a long time.

Investing in new altcoins is more risky than the ones that have been in the market for a long time, so if I will recommend, then it’s better to invest in ETH, BNB, SOL, and other strong altcoins that have performed well over some period.

Plans must be well prepared to face the upcoming bull, it is very good if many share what you hold, this can be material for those who are looking for references for those who need it, for this time I don't save too much, I just try to hold new meme coins from hunting results and a handful of top 5 altcoins and TON

I have little belief that some people may have invested in some projects, but the truth about me is that I am not a fan of altcoins. So, I don't think I will invest in any altcoin projects currently or against next year. In fact, who told you that the bull run for altcoins is coming next year? I would not like to discourage you from investing in alternatives, but what is certain is that it involves a lot of risk. Investing in altcoins, especially new projects, just feels like gambling with your money. So, I would advise you that if you want to invest, try to invest only a small amount of money that, even if you lose, will not affect you significantly.

Many of these projects you seeing in the crypto market now, doing well, might only be pumping for a short period; many are just pump-and-dump tokens. I would advise you not to depend on altcoin projects as they may fail you later. The little amount of money you may have to invest in altcoins, divide it into three parts. Invest one part in altcoins and invest the rest in Bitcoin as a backup for your crypto investments. That way, even if you lose in altcoins, you may have your Bitcoin investment growing."

Altcoins are things that people invest thinking that they can do better than bitcoin and some of them really do better than bitcoin which is why they invest into them. You are right that most of them do not do that well, and some of them even go down to zero and crash, so you are right to protect your money against these falls and just invest purely into bitcoin without anything.

Obviously, you are not going to end up with making some profit if you keep thinking that the only thing you can make money from is alts, because bitcoin could make it very well too, so we shouldn't be worried about drops or alts and keep at bitcoin if we want less risks. However, the reason why people think we will go up next year is because it's a year after halving and we peak during those times.

No one has told me that a bull run will happen next year but when you look at financial markets, they work in cycles and history tends to rhyme.

No one can predict about anything in crypto world as mostly things are working on hype or personal research so better never go with others views just do your own search and then invest into this match because we all know this is never been easy to recovery if you are having early loses about how things will be bullish in next year surely it's difficult to give perfect prediction anything can happen.

Investing in new coins is just like gamble this can go either way while having some good search and checking team and analysis can help things sorted out better no doubt going into solid coins and tokens always give good chance of staying stable and having some profit from them but still peoples love to stay with bitcoin because they feel comfortable and having more trust than other cryptos on bitcoin.

Altcoins are not something you can hold on to forever neither Bitcoin is, the wise thing is to take your profits away and invest in physical assets till next bear market so that you can bring your cash back to buy bitcoin or altcoins at a cheap rate. The purspose of this thread is to have a look what altcoins our experienced members prefer.

Yikes! Be careful about "physical assets" too though!

I had the idea in the 2017-2018 market peak that if I got run over by a bus my family would likely not benefit from my crypto holdings because some fast-talking "expert" would convince them to let him or her at my computers to "retrieve" my holdings and oops guess what, "sorry he must've gotten hacked or something, don't see anything there..."

Thus I figured how else to dispose of over $50k per month than buy up fixer-uppers I could then sink many thousands per month into to "fix up".

A bank assured me that as soon as tax dept paperwork showed I had indeed made hundreds of thousands there would be NO problem getting a mortgage, so rather than let it slip through my hands I early in 2018 bough a nice fixer-upper mansion using cash, figuring no need to wait for mortage to buy it, use the mortgage instead once accountant was done and income filed to pay whatever income tax the tax dept paperwork would show alongside its showing how much I had made.

Well!

Never trust old-style banks is apparently totally correct advice.

In short, they had lied.

They changed their story, all of a sudden it is not the amount I earned they want to see, it is magically (fraudulently, surely, ultimately?) now that I already paid the taxes on the earnings that they want to see.

I mean it does make sense to wonder if someone is just pretending they made a bunch, if they aren't investing into the pretense by paying taxes on the pretended income, sure.

But...

To lie about it?

To pretend the paperwork shewing the income would suffice then later change that story?

Sick buggers. Absolutely something wrong about that. They could have just said up front that income only counts after the taxes on it have been paid.

So, no financing for paying the income tax, even given five houses available to hold as collateral, even using "private financing" (mega huge costs to those by the way).

So fer goshsakes if gonna try vesting in "real" stuff be damn careful!

(And never trust old style banks maybe too?)

I was going to say that why there is no Bitcoin and I was like, oh well, you might be an altcoin lover but when I look at the title, it says altcoins only and then we are also on the altcoin boards. I can see that you also have meme coins but why pick the less known ones?

Though I think the reason is that the known ones can collapse easily. Less known ones may not collapse but they might also give minimal rewards only, however as long as it is consistent then why not right? That's great if you also have a Bitcoin with you. It means that you are not a literal altcoin lover and what is much greater is the fact that you will put your altcoins profit into Bitcoin.

Not all altcoins are bad in quality or a scam, so it is also not wrong to leave some of them or even treat them as a long-term investment together with your Bitcoins and it was only the alts that you are not sure of, or the meme coins are the ones that you must sell and replace with the other potential one, since they don't usually last long. If you don't believe in any of the altcoins, then there is no point on investing on them even just a little. You better invest all of your money in Bitcoin because that can give you more confidence and profits.

wow thats some story and a lesson to learn from. So you only invested in bitcoin since 2018 I guess?

According to my profile here, I joined BitCoinTalk (though back then it was known as bitcoin.org) earlier than that:

January 31, 2011, 02:30:40 AM

I don't think I ever bought bitcoin, I only mined it and sold it, until altcoins came along so that sometimes I sold an alt for bitcoin (in other words bought bitcoin with an alt) in the process of market-making for the alt.

Cannot recall if bitcoin.org was my initial discovery of bitcoin or if I stumbled upon it somewhere else first, at the time I was searching for free open source code that could be helpful in building a trading layer (trade X number of thing Y at place Z for A number of thing B at place C) to get working first before later presumably adding a transport baron layer to add on actually being able to relocate the things from place to place.

Bitcoin seemed a potential way to bypass my Digitalis D'ydii Cluster's assumption that all currencies need be local, only actual cargo being transported from planet to planet thus only needing one currency field in the starships showing balance of the local currency, remainder left as a 'tip' to the starport upon leaving with actual cargo to another starsystem.

It does seem likely though that google found for me bitcoin.org first or very early in that searching process.

-MarkM-

I also have confidence that the bullrun will come in the coming year, and have several altcoins so I have hope by investing in potential altcoins such as Ton coin and solana by showing increasing growth, I also think that new altcoins will have increased growth even though there are risks in them.

TON seems to be good, but the price isnt ideal right now to get in.

It may - drop - a bit in the future up to $4 according to Architec.ton, despite increased network activity. They describe it because of selling pressure on the market and bearish indicators. But only time will tell.

There are as many risks with new ones as with the old ones, but due to the sheer volume and power behind them, they won't shake as much, and we know for a fact that Solana won't die soon, as well as TON. That can't be said about new coins at all ;D
I hope for your investment to prosper.

Its hard to think TON will surpass SOLANA in marketcap but anything is possible in the crypto world.

Very interesting investment plan, you collect lots of coins in portfolios such as ZRO, SUI, etc. I don't know about SOLCHAT whether this coin is suitable for long-term or short-term investment. Collecting lots of altcoins as an investment for the future when the altcoin price rises next year, if in reality the altcoin is not as expected and reverses direction, what should be done.

I don't collect many coins in my portfolio but choose some of the top altcoins as the safest and least risky investments such as ETH, BNB to invest in at the moment.

Investing in Crypto is always risky. BTC went to 15K once in the bear market and who can gurantee that it will not happen again or something worse? risk is always present whether its BTC or Alts imo

Yeah, SOLCHAT is unknown to me too, so I would rather choose bigger, reliable alts, though the coins that OP mentioned are the ones with big potential ahead of them, maybe even bigger than the old alts, though the risks attached to them would be higher too.

Well there is only some of the alt coins that I do hodl in my portfolio. There is alot of them we must be careful when we choose those projects and tokens to invest in.
For me it is the top coins in marketcap that I do hodl. I have ethereum, bnb, solana, and xrp. And then I also do have some doge but that is only cause I want to hodl some meme coin.
But I wish I did hodl the token called tao. That token is up 14 percent in only the last 24 hours. Maybe it is a pump and dump but I did see it and makes me wonder.

You're absolutely right about the risks of bag holding, especially with many altcoins slowly losing value. However, labeling all altcoins, including Ethereum, as 'shitcoins' misses the bigger picture. Ethereum, for instance, has built a robust ecosystem with real-world applications in DeFi, NFTs, and smart contracts. While timing the market is crucial, some altcoins with strong fundamentals and continuous innovation may offer long-term value beyond just speculative trading. It’s more about evaluating the project’s use case and development activity rather than simply relying on price action.

TAO looks like the BTC of AI sector to me atm.

This coin and that token and the other project. All here gives what they believe in, which they should because why would you defend something you do not believe in, but they do it all based on their personal hopes, there is no guarantee on any of them, maybe except bitcoin but that is not an altcoin. Do not look at people and make your decision on their opinions, go research yourself and find what you want to do and that way you will do better.

I personally never invested even a cent of my money into anything just because someone said it's good project. I always do my own research on everything I put my money into, and I make money based on that. To be fair I did alright so far, and never felt the need to change this opinion.

Mostly well experienced members of this forum understand how to manage things so as you already mentioned you have few altcoins which is good decision because we have few coins or tokens which have good potential and can give some good profit but still things have never been on level because anytime we can face uncertainty and things can be gone into wrong way as well.

Coins which are having stability surely good for keeping long time as we have at the top of list Ethereum, BNB, LTC and now Solana are mine favourite as well because I am having good confidence about them, but this has never been investment suggestion for anyone because do your own search before doing anything about investment.

Bitcoin is one of the best for investment but keep one thing in mind in strong bearish trend this can also be gone on huge negativity because trading and investment in altcoins are always risky and never been easy to manage.

I agree that it is very important to do your own research before investing, but the problem is beginners may lack all that knowledge to do complete research. Threads like this helps everyone to share their opinions with experienced people and that's a big opportunity for any beginner as I think

I think it is better we go for the current big project in the market and hold them if we intend investing for the bull market. Buying random new projects can be very risky because we don't even know if the price could fall at anytime making users to lose money especially when it going to take longer time before the price could recover. Their are so many new projects in the market and more are still getting launched every single days. It is good we need to think and do some research before buying any new coins in the market. Investing with any research to know about the project might not worth it. The arm is to make money smartly without risking too much.

by taking a big project it is highly recommended to be considered more profitable, in investing and considering something to choose many factors, all of which need to be supported by basic technology, which needs to be known at least by studying it further, that's what needs to be known.

Trying to name your coins will never end with a good result because we are not going to get anything major with any of these, we are going to end up with some troubles and we should be careful about it as well. I believe we are going to get some good results with our own choices if we stop caring about others. In this case, asking on a forum what people are investing into isn't a smart choice and we should be trying to figure out what to invest into.

I personally still prefer ETH even though everyone started to dislike it, but there is a reason why it is the second biggest coin and the volume is still high, so there must be something they are doing right in order to stay at the top of altcoin list and I am not going to give up just yet.

Kinda bit off taking a risk with new tokens since we don't know if they stay for long time since provably that a lot of scams would happen compare seeing more good pumps from those things. So would rather go directly to the top coins or shall we say Bitcoin if we talk about long term since nothing could give us good chances to earn compare with bitcoin.

Yeah so many project launch every day and its like there's new project created every hour so we must be careful dealing with them since lots of them are scam. So much better to deal with new project for short term only since this is the best thing to do while they don't have good trust score build up in the ecosystem. We should aim to earn quick profits from alts and don't get fooled thinking about long term with them since usually those new project usually execute those rug pull schemes and to bad if we will get caught by that schemes.

There are lots of factors to face and analyze: new projects big or small are always a risk.
Founders, collabs, the contract, the foundations that support it etc.. Much analysis is needed to even consider an investment a possibility in the first place.

Definitely, new coins arent something that you should hold on to forever. The strategy should be to rotaing profits to accumilate Bitcoin. The thing is, newly launched coins tend to outperform others in bullmarkets.

I'm holding TFS right now it's performing well. In general, he has a whole ecosystem on the Fairspin platform. You can play and earn money, quite convenient, you can see for yourself ttps://fairspin.cc/SB2024_10Shill

I am still holding and do believe on them

BNB
ETH
BTC
TON

These are my fighters for the bullrun next year.
TON is very impressive and the users on their platform are getting bigger and bigger.

Ill buy and hold DOG soon.

Thanks a lot for your straightforward answer! Really appreciate

Holding solana in particular could be impressive for the future given that I have started and expect its value to increase as expected after the US election. Also BTC is the main deposit currency of first choice which tends to yield huge profits from long term deposits. You can get profit from your shown holdings which may be a bit time consuming matter.

1. Solana.
Been holding Solana for a very long time now and still b elieve in it, sold some when Solana was around $200 but still keeping the most of it.

2. Doge.
I think doge will go for a big pump the next 12 months.
I was choosing between Doge and XRP and it was a easy choice.

3. TON
I am a little bit sceptical because of all these play2earn games because I am not sure if it will have a negative impact on the TON ecosystem in the long term but I will still hold by TON.

4. BNB
Have good feelings about bnb. Binance just growing and growing and so will bnb.

5. AVAX
It's under $30 now and I think it can increase a bit, not too much but up to $50 isn't impossible.

I am personally holding Solana and ETh because its a strong project development team and giving long term benefit to its investors. But remember one thing whenever you invest in altcoins, do a thoroughly research of the project and invest wisely. A lot of altcoins like ETh,  Solana and Ton projects like toon can give a good future benefit I am thinking of holding on them too and I think only invest thar amount your are not afraid to lose up.

Solana and ETH are likely to give you profits because the two altcoins already have an ecosystem and network outside of old projects and new projects use the networks of these two altcoins. Not only that, there are several other top altcouns that can give us profits such as Bnp, Bch and we can't forget about investing in Bitcoin, which of course always brings surprises every time there is a big correction.
But we have to remember to enter at the right time when investing, prioritize strong analysis, never rely on other people to research the coins you want to invest in.

What is your bull market target for SOL?

Yeah, SOL is definitely the most important part and we are going to end up with a lot better profit with SOL because we are going to see a lot better profit as well. This should be something that will get a greater return for us because we can't really see this changing for long term, we had a lot more situations, since SOL is doing fine at top ranks as well, and we are seeing ETH recovering as well.

These are all great coins because they are ranked highly and everyone agrees how great they are as well. I do not think we are going to see these coins end up dropping down as well, so we need to remember how we are going to see these coins end up with profiting as well. We are going to see bull market help with everything all together.

Nobody does have a target for SOL it seems

Doge and memecoins aside, all of the top 100 coins people name are fine, because they may do fine or they may do terribly, we really do not know and we can't really judge them.

There are stablecoins in top 100, remove those, there are memecoins as well, remove those, and there are obviously wrongdoing and legal troubles such as XRP type of ones, remove those. All the others left, which would be probably around 80 coins within top 100, and they are all worth taking a look at as well. I am not saying go invest into all of them, I don't, I have a much smaller approach, but I can tell you that this could be something I can see being a smart decision to just check all of them and find the ones that you love and enjoy.

If that's what you mean, it would be more appropriate if you mentioned it as a potential coin. Saying it as a new coin will mislead anyone. I think you understand well what I mean, mate.

TBH, it is quite funny. You advice other people to hold top altcoins but you are holding shit altcoins. Why don't you invest in top altcoins as well?
I guess you got those shitcoins from bounty or airdrop. I really hope you're not a part of those failed investors who are trying to be early investors in new meme coin projects.  ;D

You said to have a well prepare but it seems you mostly try to get new meme coins. This contradicts your suggestion to other people. You should try to improve the number of top altcoins on your portfolio if you want to have a well prepare before the peak of bullrun season. Don't rely on bounty or airdrop tokens/coins! Do DCA to have a more reliable investment, you can gradually buy few top coins if you have limited funds.

SOL is the one I am getting a bit more excited about, and I will probably keep hold to if a lot longer and I am looking to buy some more. I am lacking a bit of cash these days, and credit card purchase of SOL makes no sense, if I do have money to invest then I invest, but if I do not have money to invest then credit card (debt) shouldn't be way to get in.

But the moment I get some money, I will put that in SOL because I like where it is going right now. A ton of projects are using the SOL network and chain, so we are going to see a big growth continue to happen at SOL ecosystem. It may not be going up right away in a few days, but the long term outlook of it, the way the team works on it, seems like there will be a bright future for it.

What about trying your luck and effort in drops? I don't see nothing bad in that kind of activity, besides that it can just be for nothing in the end  ;D

How high do you expect SOL to go?

It's not a financial advice but just a suggestion. I got a few shitcoins from airdrops but others are what I used my money to purchase some years ago but the tokens turned nonsense and there's no way I can advice anyone to invest in them. I just made a suggestion of top altcoins because it's better than risking ones money on some new coins.

I am done with new coins or "potential coins" because I've bought and joined bounties before and most of them just gave me the headache. I like it more buying game coins because somehow I made some good profits out of it when the hype is about DeFi and NFT but right now I cannot find something where I want to put my money because I am meticulously seeking the one that could really make me intrigued with their project.
Anyway, while you are looking, you might as well buy the old ones. i.e. Ethereum and BNB. They may be slow now in value increase but that's better than wasting your money with a project or a coin that you are not sure about.

Airdrops? if you guys can still find some interesting project there and you're going to do it for free, there's no problem with them and as you say, don't expect too much on them and just rely on your luck there.

I only hold top altcoins but they're not a lot of it. It's okay to hold a bunch of these altcoins preparing for the peak of this bull run or during this altcoin season.

But, too much diversification is going to be bad as well when your mind will want you to profit for as long as you can with everything that you're holding there.

I agree with this, SOL looks like it has a good way to go forward and I believe the amount of projects they have is the reason. The amount of projects in SOL that people are using these days is a lot, and they are spending SOL to do these as well, while they are not spending a lot of SOL because SOL transactions are cheap, they are still getting a lot of it just to keep that in their accounts, I believe we are going to see plenty of changes on the long run and not going to have any trouble with SOL.

There is a logical reason why it went to fifth place and that is because of the projects. Same like ETH did in 2021, when everyone used ERC20, the projects using the chain kept it up and same will happen to SOL when bull starts.

with the belief that we apply to choose a coin that has the potential for the future, NFT can be a part to continue to follow it by choosing a project that can produce all the advantages and disadvantages of each, Ethereum may be a good choice depending on the priorities you want, all need the right choice.

NFTs are a dying trend
