Bitcoin Forum

Having accumulated bitcoin once it dropped under $3000 from late november until early March, I've now switched over to diversifying out with an altcoin spread. I picked up 15 altcoins last week, will continue buying for the next couple months probably.

I might add a few coins, but what do you think of my altcoin spread. Note that I already own a lot of BTC, a good amount of ETH, and a little BCH and LTC and DOGE. I don't plan on buying more of those coins.


XRP
EOS
Stellar
Binance coin
XMR
LINK
HOT
WAVES
BAT
Vechain
ADA
ONT
Tron
Zcash
ZIL

I will add to my allotments in all of those. I was also thinking about picking up some:
Tezos
OMG
Lisk
Maker
Decred
ENJ
DASH
STEEM



What do you think? I don't pay much attention to altcoins so I haven't done much research on plenty of these. Or there are coins I've known a little bit about for a while but never done dedicated research on. Just really trying to get a good diversified portfolio of altcoins for the next bull run to go along with my Bitcoin dominated coin holdings.

Sidenote:
I feel like EOS is the coin I think could gain the most out of those. I could see the next bull run taking it over 200 billion market cap (I could see xrp, eth, and eos at the next peak all getting to around the market cap bitcoin had on the last peak >250 billion). But then i just started doing research on it and saw it was designed to be centralized, and the founder even seems to reject decentralization which is pretty dumb. I mostly think its gonna go crazy cuz I see that right now it is destroying ETH in terms of usage of dapps, so i'm wondering if its gonna take the dapp lead from ETH during the next bull run.

Anyway, any thoughts or comments would be great! Thanks

Can't go wrong with Monero, if I want to throw in my opinion here, but honestly don't know how the rest will pan out. Diversification in alts now seems like a good idea, especially when most of them are around 10% of what they used to be. If you believe the bulls will eventually bring back ATH then I guess you'll be a made man.

Five on the list is part of my own folio let me mention so it may be my advice for you to accumulate.those are

EOS
BNB
WAVES
MONERO
TRON

I cannot comment for the others as i am not following them

And just a question,why need 15 coins mate?does this seems alot for diversification?no offense because thats yours lol 😂

Bit late with the tezos but i guess it's a good project with lots of room to grow. It's definitely a top ten CMC coin so i'll keep buying until it's on par with cardano and eos. Wish i'd bought more a month ago but that's crypto

There was a lot of mediums coins right now like PPT, Enjin and TOP. Top 10 CMC should always become an alternative way to decrease our risk. But that can't give you the more profit compared when you are choosing the right medium coin.

What do you think about quark and BTT if any sense in holding them?

I think that Binance coin could be a nasty surprise on the long term. On short term, on the other hand, may be great.
The list looks nicely balanced, it contains quite a number of of coins I also think they'll grow.
It also contains a few I simply don't know. But being a balanced list, it looks good to me.

You have a great diversification of Altcoins, but I recommend something from the point of view of the market speculator, it is always very good to choose the first altcoins of the CMC, because they are the strongest currencies and that they present more volume of the market, there are some currencies that they can present a sustained growth, but according to Wyckoff's theory we are currently in the accumulation phase, where the ideal is to buy and hold.

It would be excellent if the currencies you have bought follow your projects to see what innovations or new new features bring, since your portfolio is of the style of an investor's thinking, and investors must follow the progress of their investment day by day.

im Always curious to others pick list, nice mix OP.  Monero is mentioned a lot and is one of my picks as well.
As BNB keeps gaining popularity and heading to a higher spot on cmc it is one to keep a close eye on.
Maybe add some more lower ranked coins if time doesnt matter, There is always a coin around that is going to burst later on the ride. 

in the past couple of years that i have been in this market and have been trading for most part of it, i have never considered bag holding altcoins to be a good strategy. i am not an expert but the only strategy that has ever made sense to me involving altcoins is the short term trading and dumping them as fast as possible.

wow, you are managing a lot of different altcoins. Investing in too many different altcoins will distract you and sometimes the profit will be no when the altcoins go down in price. This is not a good investment.
Please adjust and select 5 types of altcoins that can help you profit up to 20-30%. Do not invest in a large way, I have never seen anyone make a lot of money with such an investment.

All of your lists has a great chance to buy at a low price, and all of that coin can increase higher. Do you want to add IOTA, and XEM too? Because it's already on top 20 CMC. And from the top 20 of CMC, I don't have Tether only ;D

I hope that you are not confused with selling all of your coins when the bull market come because you have a lot of altcoin as your investment ;)

The list seems to me like a safe picks, which I think is good but I do prefer aggressive picks, those that can give 5X minimum return on Investment. I like Link, Hot Na BNB, for me till June Binance token will still be on demand until they launch their Dex and people see the growth of the platform.

Most are good altcoins and if you hold a lot of them now, just hold until next bull run, there maybe are some coins you can add to invest on like ETN.

When the next bull run arrives, no one in the crypto space will care about the tech or fundamentals behind X or Y coin, everyone will be looking to make profits.

So, unless you're trying to hold EOS for the long-term, you shouldn't care about whether it's centralized or not, if you're here to make profits, rest assured that EOS will be one of the coins to skyrocket in value during the next bull market, mainly because it is a top 10 coin and these cryptos always follow the same pattern in price (at least whenever the market is in the middle of an uptrend), and because there's no doubt that one of the biggest PnD coins in the market will go up in the next bull run.

   I think that anyone without crypto-portfolio is not ready for the future that`s coming. I think it`s
great that you are making your portfolio, list of coins you have is similar with mine, with few exceptions.
   EOS, Stellar, Waves, Tron, Steem, Lisk, ADA, Dash are the ones I have. From your list I would like
to have LINK, HOT, Enjin, ZIL.
   You are on a good track, keep on with accumulating. I`m doing the same!

It's time to accumulate an appropriate time so everyone can implement this tactic in the long run to be successful.

Solid list, I must say, it's a combination of good and steady and long term coins and probably just a couple of pump-and-dumps coins. but it's all good.

As far as overtaking ETH though, there are lots of competition but I don't see them taking the lead. It will still be ETH in my opinion and then competitions below.

And yes, good time to accumulate at majority of them is still at the <80%-90% of their ATH so everyone should take the opportunity to invest. Of course there is a risk involved, but it doesn't mean you just gonna throw $100k in some shitcoins. The OP's list is a good example and others can replicate it, if they want and with a small capital.

Waves, binance, stellar and ADA are coins that are worth holding on, you can still had ETH on your bag. Your EOS analysis is pretty good enough to stay with it, but make sure you have a good amount of holdings until the price hits its ATH.

My top holdings are in...

ONT
ICX
ARK
VET
NEO
WAN

I like OMG, LISK, QTUM and Binance but sold most of them and traded for the above.

Even though you do not pay much attention to altcoins you got all the coins up here  :P. I like Stellar, BAT, Tron, XMR and XRP are good coins that i would prefer to invest if you are looking for a long term investment as those projects looks promising and the teams behind those projects does have proven experience in the real market and so there is no doubt these projects will be successful.

Your choices are good although you haven't done much research on those coins you have invested and which you have known for a while, You shouldn't rely on your little knowledge to rush into investing in a coin, but you should read about them a lot and follow their movements in the markets and keep track of their news and new features, I advise you to increase the amounts of coins you have and put the money that you would put in other coins in these coins LTC, XRP, EOS, XMR, BNB, TRX, ADA, BCH and ZEC I am with the idea to believe in a specific number of coins up to 10 coins to bring you a strong return and reduce investment losses.

Oh nice lots of replies to my thread!


To answer various questions from different people…

15 coins just cuz I decided to grab a bit of a bunch that I thought could do well out of the top 50 coins or so. Some I’ve known about for a while and traded before, some I’ve never bought but I think could do well on the next bull run, some I barely know anything about but I see them doing well now despite the bottoming or I’ve just seen some good things said about them.


Yeah a bit late with tezos. I wish I had included it in my initial 15 since it’s gone up like 50% in the past week since I bought them. Basically I had a list of like ~22 coins and I only bought the ones that had USDC or USDT pairs on coinbase pro and binance. Tezos I don’t think is even on binance, so I’ll have to see what exchanges it is on.


I don’t know about Binance coin. I see it shooting up recently, and it has gained really well this past week since I bought it, but its already the #7 coin and its just an exchange’s coin?! I don’t really know what the purpose of it is outside of using it for trading pairs and stuff on the exchange. I would be very surprised if it has long term viability in the top 10 or 20 or 30 but its doing well now so I was like alright I’ll put a little money in and see. I mean then again I don’t think XRP should be in the top 50 as it’s just  a fundraiser coin for Ripple essentially and its solidly #3 so I accept that the market prizes some coins that I think make no sense, so I was like ok Binance Coin sure buy some and we’ll see.


To klaaas,
yeah I might throw some money at random coins further down the list later on. I’m happy with my BTC holdings, happy with my ETH holdings (though I might have just lost a third of my ETH by keeping them on an exchange that shutdown ha, such a dumb mistake!), now over the next couple months I’ll load up on a bunch of top 50 coins like this, and if I get to the point where I’m happy with holdings of them I may dump some money later this year in a few smaller cap coins to see if one can like 200x or something, just for fun. :p


To Red-Apple,
I usually agree with you take profits on altcoins while you can. But I’m looking at this from an accumulator standpoint. We’re at the bottom of the market (well altcoins have been springing up but still very low in the market), with a 2-3 year bull run coming up probably most coins at least in the top 100 are gonna 10x or better. So I’m not looking for a 40% gain week (for example BAT has hit over 40% for me during the week that I’ve had it) and taking profit, I just want to sit until the whole crypto market is 30x higher and take massive profits with zero work other than making my initial buys now. Also I reallllly don’t want to deal with the figuring out the taxes on all my trades. I’m currently trying to figure out taxes for my many hundreds of trades the first half of last year and its a complete nightmare. Much easier to buy once now, keep track of all my buys, and sell in a couple years and record each sell as I do it.


Maydna,
IOTA has always seemed fishy to me. I doubt it will get adopted, I think its tech is questionable (lots of big talk) and there was the whole debacle where they tried to design their own has function or something. That right there is a huge red flag that the devs don’t know what they are doing. You don’t design your own cryptographic algorithm. That stuff is made over years by experts and lots and lots of testing. So no, no interest in IOTA (though I’m sure it’ll gain plenty like everything else on the next bull run).
And XEM…wasn’t that in the top 10 all throughout the last bull run and I never really knew what it was, never heard much about it. And now I see it’s back in 21st on CMC, that just always seemed like a coin destined to drop away from the top of the market and it seems that is indeed happening, no that’s probably the last coin I would consider buying haha.


Tomahawk9,
Yeah I guess I agree, it’s not like cryptos are going to see mainstream usage in the next couple years on the bull run, so Eos being centralized I’m sure won’t stop it, and after all XRP is right near the top so clearly there is room near the top for highly centralized coins! Yeah I feel like EOS has the chance to gain Ethereum like popularity on the next boom, my guess is it’ll do the best out of all these coins that I’m buying.




I just calculated with current prices, BTC makes up 90.9% of my portfolio and ETH makes up another 5.2% (assuming I can get the third of my ETH back from the exchange that closed down!). So altcoins are only 3.9% of my profile now! But probably over the next couple months will be trying to quadruple or quintuple my initial buy in from last week. Excited to buy more for longer term and watching them grow after only really ever having traded alts short term the past few years.

Great idea, different altcoins could give different returns, you accumulate and diversify your money, it's good.
BTC on the other hand already gave your a profit at today's price, per coinmarketcap as of this time, it's already up 15%, I think more increase will come and we can expect a minor correction, then again an uptrend will happen.

I agree with your idea, the condition of the market that seems to be improving at this time will certainly be profitable if the collection of many coins, I also invest more than 20 coins and tokens, if in total only around $ 2000.

You are throwing away your money.

There is no way all of these altcoins can make huge runs. Some of them have to die off and you'll lose so much money even if some of those make x10-x100 returns.

I'd rather buy %90+ BTC and put the rest on shitcoins.

15 altcoins ,, thats too much buddy
i think its better to collect not more than 10 altcoins,, anyway you must hold bitcoin and ethereum too
because ethereum is the best altcoin and in my opinion there is no altcoins can beat ethereum  ;)

regards

I think too many coins are a risky thing, I suggest to make top 10 ranked as a long-term investment, the most important thing is to always know the latest updates to change strategies if needed.

I chose to invest the majority of those coins that are on your list, because I believe that you have chosen the most promising coins for investment, which are able to bring good profits in the next 6-8 months. You can add to the list a young, but quite promising coin XYO, Zilliqa, Nebulas.

Your list are not bad at all, and I think this can also serve as expo for me, so I will secretly do my own research too on them but I can bet my altcoins portfolio that BNB and TTT will be a great coin for you to also invest in as they both have a working product that is very high in demand too and we have lots of investors who have already invested.

TTT has the tendency of given you 1500% return of any amount you invested in it while BNB should at least give you 500% return by the end of the year. These two coins other than the ones you mentioned are what I can personally vouch for now till something otherwise happens which I don’t expect to see.

My question will be if the coin can give a good return for bitoin not dollar. as long as bitcoin price increases they are likely to increase in price also but can we a have good profit in bitcoin from those projects.

Your list is very good. I have also got some of these coins in my portfolio. As you have got a lot of bitcoin, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to add a few more and buy more some of these coins.

Great your position is kinda diversified and it is mostly on the major altcoins instead of those randomly fake bad coin
Diversify is always good if you wanted to mitigate risk and have a balance portfolio
You have coins like EOS, BNB, Tron, ONT, ADA, BAT and i wouldn't say these coin are perfectly fine as a project but in the long run, it can balanced out your portfolio for good gains if the market goes bullish!

Good luck!

the altcoins in your portfolio are good, interesting because I'm also hodl some of those on your portfolio list. not much is there only 6 EOS XMR XLM NO OMG ZIL the rest I still have in the top 10 on the marketcap and in the top 50 there are some but I can't say it, by the way you have to focus on all your purchases if there is a chance to sell just don't wait for more returns

Monero is a good anonymous coin. The other coins being useful are bitcoin cash, eth etc.

Be careful, it's not easy to handle 15 coins at the same time, and it will need more time to analyze one by one. I hope that you can do better analyze all of your coins because it will be too difficult to analyze in a short time if the market keeps moving faster than usual. But I believe that you can handle without a problem and you can also make a huge profit from the coins.

I think this will be the best portfolio. As you mentioned about diversified investment, you are absolutely correct. In today's market volatility situations which lasts longer than expected, diversified portfolio can always safeguard your investment.
Bitcoin below $3000 and Etherium below $100 was or is the best opportunity to accumulate.
I don't know in details about all the altcoins you mentioned but seems most of them are in top 20 as per market capitalization.
Just a small suggestion, enhance or expand your portfolio with investing in new projects for example MultiVAC and Bankera.(your own research is recommended).
Surely, upcoming bull run will attract very good returns.

I think you should add some new and advanced projects too as they can prove to provide massive gains, so not only you are investing in innovation but your profit potential also increases. A few such projects that are undervalued are Powr and amb i think they will give massive returns this year if someone picks up from current low prices.

Same thought and I also did it because I didn't want to take a lot of risks so in my opinion the right choice for investment is only bitcoin

Most of them are on the top 100 CMC so I think that your portfolio would be fine.
I would also invest in more alt-coin but for now I am just holding and buying more BTC,ETH and BCH I only plan on having few coins in my portfolio since I don't join bounties anymore.

Many good altcoin picks here, I think you have well diversified you portfolio.
But all in all I will also think on some high risky - hihg potential gains altcoins from outside of TOP100 cmc.

A good portfolio that can provide good profit in the future. I hope you got it before the increase and were already make some profit. You have extra time to collect, just go ahead.

You certainly have a good list there am sure if not all the coins make it through some will definetely live up to a perfect gain so just keep doing what you do and am sure you might make a good portfolio

I think XRP, EOS, Stellar, Binance coin, ADA is currently having a positive trend. they have large volumes on some exchanges, experiencing a price increase in one month ago. I think this is good altcoins.

The most important thing in your portfolio, how liquid it is. Can you sell the tokens anytime without big losses to BTC and convert to USDT.
I would say that you have a pretty stable and reliable portfolio with medium risk and a high risk-reward ratio.

For that numbers of altcoins you're holding, it absolutely will give you more profits but just be sure that you can manage them all otherwise you'll be losing.
There is no problem with that numbers if we are a full time trader or being crypto works all the time as we know the trend of all the coins that we are holding. But for those who haven't in full time, it gonna be a big risk for us. If that so, we have just to stick in few coins which to think that is very manageable for us.
 

I see the market is very green now, all altcoins go up, including my review coins like ADA, BNB, EOS and ETH, if you have bought them from a long time ago now it has gone up very much

it's pretty good because we do the right thing not arbitrarily in selecting altcoins that are really suitable for us to invest or not we certainly don't want to lose big enough

I don't get what you are saying. As I said in my second post, I DO have 90% Bitcoin. Now that I'm happy with my bitcoin amount that i picked up on the bottom (plus a few i had left over from 2017) I'm moving into altcoins to diversify. Altcoins will only make up 5-10% of my portfolio if I keep buying them for a couple months, so Bitcoin will remain 80% based on initial investment.

And your math doesn't add up. First of all I doubt any of those coins will die off. Even if they did, it would literally only take a single coin doing 10x or so for me to not lose money from a bunch of others going to zero. And I'm betting they all go up by at least 10x in the next couple years. I figure I'm looking for around 20x - 25x average on them.

All of your coins look good ones to hold on. How many times each of those will go up is hard to know but your risk is lower with good coins. If we get another 2017 kind of bull run, then it should work out great.

i think using too much altcoins will bring us more disadvantages than normal because not any altcoin can survivethe bear market or not any altcoins will be pumped in the future to bring you profi, only one or two altcoins will bring you profit, so i suggest you should not keep too much but only 2 or 3 altcoins.

Who knows. You can't tell exactly which coin will make a big run in the future. I don't mind myself holding a big bag of alts if i can afford to do so. And most of these alts may seem useless today but they do have their own value which may be profitable one day. But you have to be a little picky with the 15 coins you'll hold though. Though many if these coins can give you big profit in their own time, many more will end up just being shitcoins.

2017 was indeed a good year and the bull run was superb that time.
But let's just focus on today, it seems like we have a bull run started already, BTC didn't stay long at $4k level once it broke the resistant
and it reached over $5,000 now, remember that is just less than 24 hours and that is how good and big the bull run can impact.

What I think is that you should be very careful while accumulating all this coins and make sure you do a very good research about the coin before making any investment in them so as not to regret making a decision that you can never recover from, I saw that you actually listed some good coins that have a very good potential and would worth more in the future but some of the coin you also listed are unknown by me and I think more research should be done.

It is a good list. Especially if the coming bull market is crypto-wide, meaning like the last time when almost every coin out there increased with at least 100% profit. Good job on picking the least risk to moderate to high risk coins.

type in the market going up I think all assets included in the list will experience price increases. but we must choose assets with the highest possible profit. if I will choose Stellar, this year's progress looks promising.

15 altcoins have also dropped me too big but it really depends on you because that's what runs you but clearly you have to be careful in choosing which ones you should invest or not because there are so many losses that you will get if you choose wrongly

I think you can pick 8 to 10 coins and specially in the green market EOS,BNB,TRON,LISK,STELLER & HOT is good investment. Big coin not good increasing now so small coin is strategically better. Enjin Coin (ENJ) you will add to invest because it's price hopefully will big increase.
 

@OP, your coin selection is good, they have at least a good market support and most of them are on their low.  they also have a solid developer at work so I guess you will take a good profit from your selection.  And at this low market it is a good move to start accumulating because the sign of bullish market is already there.

Having lots of altcoins will give you the desired benefits, the movement of each coin will certainly give you benefits, and your strategy is quite good with 15 valuable coins. Surely many will follow in your footsteps and this is a worthy asset to continue to maintain. Every coin will certainly give you benefits and you will continue to race to make a profit on every coin.

It's a good time to buy a lot of alts, pretty much everything is at a huge idscount right now, but a lot are climbing rapidly again even though prices are still low relative to ATH. The problem with spreading across too many coins though is that you can't really keep up with news on all of them. It's okay for long-term holding, but a bit of a nightmare if you are thinking of chopping and changing and trading some.

Good idea to get a spread across some different use cases though. I definitely agree with that.

At this point I'm purely holding long term. Everything I own and continue to buy I will hold until the market looks to be nearing its next peak in a couple years. I used to day trade altcoins to try to make more bitcoin and I always ended up losing bitcoin in the end from trading. Now I just buy and hold. I accumulated bitcoin from late november until mid-march, and now i've started accumulating some altcoins. I agree if I were trading holding so many coins would be hard to manage, but what i'm doing requires no effort, buy and hold and in a couple years sell near the peak. It requires no more effort to hold 2 coins or 15 coins or 50 coins.

I just wish the bull run had held off for a couple more months! Luckily I got all my bitcoin buying done on the bottom, but with altcoins i missed the bottom since I am just starting to buy now. Still though buying during the first couple months of the bull run will give me fantastic returns for all my altcoins as well!

This are nice selection as most of your selections are coins that have real usecase and are promising.  You can also add MFT and Aergo they have excellent usecase and potential to increase in price as well

According to me quark and Btt also very promising altcoins for long term investment. I've a big bag of quark. I hope price of this coin will increase.     

It might be good, but the price movements in the market are very volatile when the start of their sales is finished and the trade starts. it is still risky to hold it in large quantities. I myself bought more BNB for me to manage in the future. because I believe the support of the binance platform is very strong for the growth of BNB.

some of them is really shitcoin. such as Maker Decred ENJ HOT ZIL.
dont invest them
and buy ethereum bitcoin and litecoin instead of them

Diversifying is good only if the market will continue the uptrend movement.. The current movement could be a trap.  It would be a bit safe to day trade than stockpiling more altcoin  longterm

even if the market wont continue in uptrend movement  , diversifying is still a wise idea to do  .  not only it lessen the risk of loosing all but also it ensures you that you will still earn even other coins are dumped but if all coins are pumped , it also allows you to earn more potential income  .


if you think that the current movement is a trap then why bother trade ?  isnt it a good idea to wait for a while and investigate if the movement of the coins was really a trap or not  . stockpilling or stocking more coins is pretty beneficial to do during your hodling sessions .

15 Coin in my opinion is also included in a large number because indeed I myself do not dare to choose a lot of coins which are indeed at greater risk and better to have a good one for me to invest

The point of diversifying is to limit risk. If you only buy one coin you have lots of risk. Well bitcoin isn't very risky but any other coin is. 15 coins is far less risk than one coin.

I use to day trade. always ended up losing bitcoin doing that. I'm done with that. Much safer to just accumulate and watch the market rise. Also I'm not at all worried about the current movement. I think it is crystal clear the bull market just started, and even if somehow that is wrong, why would I care? that would only be good news because it would mean I could continue to accumulate at a lower price.

OP mentioned very good coin for holding them in the long term, but those coins are still, very low in the market makes you grab because once the market starts recovering the prices of those coins will surely increase very fastly. All those coins you mentioned are actually generating very huge volumes in the market which is a very good sign for long term holding.

And what exactly are these desired benefits to you? Having hundreds of coins to monitor on a portfolio? And where will you even find the space to store your wallets? Or are you going to use one of the less secure wallets? A ledger? So you're going to hold everything on cold storage? If you've been paying attention at all in the past year and a half, anyone whose held altcoins has been crying. Even Galaxy the world's supposedly most profitable hedge fund for crypto, lost so much value because they held altcoins.

So don't be an idiot and stop posting bad advice.

Not sure why you are comparing 2018 returns to future returns. 2018 was the crash, that is over. It's extremely bad advice to try to say altcoins will go down just because they were (obviously) going down during the crash.

I'm not sure where I will store my altcoins. Most of my crypto (bitcoin) will be in cold storage. I guess I could do that for all the altcoins it would just be annoying, but with how much my altcoin portfoilo will be worth in the next couple years as this bull run heats up I guess it does totally make sense to move them off exchange into secure holdings rather than risk it.

today there is no other way out than long-term storage of all its assets. This is the choice of a person who does not want to risk their assets. In any case, if you sell something, it is ten times cheaper than the purchase price.

Well that's a good idea especially on this situation but i suggest don't rely on this pump of market because soon or later there's a possibility it will change direction again . Must build strategy on each of it which is separate those good for long run and will survive the dump and build strategy as well for short term so that can prevent losses. Probably it can help IMO. .good luck mate !

I could only speak and give my opinion on coins I hold and believe will get me get what I expect in return. My coins I supported are those which already held in the top 50 of the coinmarketcap and these include the following:

Ethereum
XRP
XLM
Lisk
ADA
DGB
KMD
SC
LTC

These coins can give good profit when you HODL considering the potential when they hit the ATH because some of them are accumulated when they are 90% down from ATH.

Your list have good altcoin which can explode if there is a bull run coming up and the coins I would like to add is DOGE and DASH which are cheap now and hopefully the prices will increase many times from the current value.

You have a deep look because the Altcoins you give are very potential and quality. These Altcoins will be able to create many shocks when Bitcoin increases.

Unfortunately I don't have enough funds to buy a lot of altcoins at the moment, because I suffered a big loss when the market dropped dramatically, my capital has run out, so when the market goes up like now I can only watch it

If I am to form an investment cart;
I've had crypto coins like BTC, ETH, XTZ, VET, BNB, TRX, XRP, XLM. Of course, you can refer to different crypto coins for more profit in a short time.

It seems to me that if a user of cryptocurrency does not want to risk, then it is best to invest in the first ten of the cryptocurrency rating. In any case, without much concern, you can get a good profit after the long-term storage of your assets.

I think I'm gonna keep accumulating altcoins for the next 3 months. Hoping they don't go too high during that time. I'd love to see the market remain relatively flat and only slightly up this spring so I can accumulate more during this time!  ;D

I think I'm going to roughly try to quadruple my altcoin holdings over these next few months, including adding in an extra few coins, probably mostly the ones I listed in my original post.

Also I didn't even know VeChain and Ontology pay gas rewards! Just noticed my binance accounts have a couple extra coins in there from the gas from those two coins haha. Only a tiny bit of money from my first week of holding in the last week of March, but still a fun little surprise!

You sure had so many altcoins. Last time, i also invested at ENJ coin and I made a huge profits from it. But some of your choosen altcoins wasn't my choice. EOS for example. I gave up that coin long time ago since the price of it did not really recovered.
Anyway, the market did pump really high. I'm sure you did receive some profits from most of your altcoins.

It has reached it's ATH in satoshi value last month, and that was really big for the investors as they make money.
Selling at the right time could give them a good profit, now after the hype the price is back to normal, the graph indicate it's dropping.

Building diverse portfolio tends to yield more and it is obvious you have picked good coins.

If you have suffered from the fall of the market, then at that time you already had some kind of assets, and since you say that you do not have the funds, then I suppose you sold them not profitably, thereby incurring losses. If so, then you did not make the best move. If your assets are in place, then I do not understand what you said.

Actually not all the time be always rise the price so thats why we never expect we loss some funds. Must better in the first you need to think early on what step you will gonna do or what happen on when you are buying some coins.

You have some serious nice collections of tokens/coin in your list of portfolio and i seriously wish you the best and in case you get more coins please dont hesitate to add them here to your list am sure they will be very helpful

A good collection, of course, the investment you have will give you a lot of benefits if both opportunities are present and you can use them wisely. These are the advantages that you can have and play right in this improving market.

You have a great diversification, above all you have Monero which is a currency that seems to me of a great future, in these moments it is necessary that you continue hold with all the coins, we are in a stage of accumulation, where the main thing is to hold and wait until the bitcoin takes its bullish tendency so that the Altcoins have a sustained and secure growth.

There is no need to force yourself to buy a lot of altcoins. If you already lose, and want to hold. It is better to hold or do something but be careful because of course you not want to cut lose and then buy coin for lose again.

cutting losses aimed at buying assets that can return capital by gaining profits does not add to the loss. certainly choosing a good asset with careful consideration must be done because it is a matter of profit that must be obtained.

If you don't have NEO, QTUM, RVN, KMD, Zcoin in your collection then you are kidding yourself.

If you want to make money in 2019 then I suggest you include the above in your investments for long term growth.

I give you a financial advise....

Sell everything and go all in MCO $MCO #MCO to the moon

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Provided it’s a good profit, this will still be the best time to purchase, now that it has gone back to bear market because it will still surely be affect by BTC bull run when the time comes, so it is still an opportunity for people like us to purchase it so we can in future also reap our own profit, just like the last or existing investors did.

I hope that other altcoins I am holding too will do same thing so I can also make huge profit from them like this my fellow brother did, most of my altcoins has not really profited me that much, and I am still waiting for the right time which I believe will come sooner than later.

Well it always good to have a diversified portfolio but it also depends on which type of investor you are

Are you looking to multiply and get a massive gain by investing?
Or you are just wanted to generate a better return compare to F.D or stock investment?

Diversify is good when you are looking to spread your risk across multiple coins
But if you are looking to get huge gain through crypto investment, you should always have one coin where you have a heavier weight on that coins compare to other coins in your portfolio
Like i do have ICX which make up almost 60% of my portfolio, and all other coins made up another 40% (around 10+ coins)

we can make all the events that have passed for future lessons so that we can take appropriate actions and not have an impact on sustainable losses. if you force yourself to buy some altcoins to be used as investment assets but your existing financial condition is unstable or not enough to have a lot of money, you cannot force it because it can only cause greed in you and can cause negative effects, because anything can done by greedy people, like borrowing money from other people just to be able to buy several altcoins for fear of losing opportunities when market prices fall

Well to all you choose altcoin is good it depends on you what will you choose that have good value and it will give a good profits. These coins you choose is all the top in crypto market so I think it will give you a good profit as long you know to manage it.

Many solid projects in the list for sure!

What I would definitely remove from the buying-list is: XRP, EOS, Tron

It’s ok as long as you are holding coins then you can still make profit. You don’t have to invest on 15 altcoins, i’d rather hold 5 top coins and increase the volume than to increase my number of coins. Having 15 altcoins might be too much, so you have to analyze well your coins before diversifying your investment.

Only just in case if that people don't have any skill in trading. Because pick which coin that we want to trade is actually 1 skill of trading too. Of course we not want to lose again after cut loss and change to new coin.

It seems to me that TRON has a really fervent ecosystem, so I would pick at least one of its token for the next bull run.
BitTorrent seems to be a great pick, because of the FA and hype around it, it will interface with other tokens on TRON network.
From what a read on Twitter one of the partnership will be with BeatzCoin, a platform for content sharing similar to YouTube and Spotify.

lots of new traders like that, they new traders still don't have much experience so it is very easy to be affected by market conditions, that will make him when the condition of the coin price in the market falls then he will easily panic.

Accumulate some good coins which will grow in coming time and also give you a great returns on the investment done now. It should not happen that you buy coins which become worthless  and you lose all your money invested.
 

That is a long list of altcoins mate, is it too many? I mean, it must be hard to always checking all 15 altcoins in the same time. I prefer investing only in 2-5 altcoins. Xrp, stellar, eos, bnb and tron are a good one. You should add more like ethereum and bitcoin cash.

Cool portfolio you have there mate, mostly top coins so the risk is very low. If you want to gain some big profits try to pick new promising altcoins with the chance to scale and improve in the long run.

It does not matter. You can invest in very good but cheap cryptocurrencies. For instance, Stellar, TRON, Cardano, IOTA are very good. You can also pay attention to top-100 unexpensive alts.

Most of the coins in your list are very good and there are only two coins that I have never heard of, however I am not so sure that is such a good idea to be holding so many coins, remember diversification is a great way to protect yourself from losing everything if one of your assets goes down but if you are interested in diversifying your investments then it could probably be a good idea to invest in precious metals or real estate but if you are determined to diversify your holdings in cryptocurrencies I will consider cutting your list in half.

That's a lot of altcoins you have, I don't even have more than 10 but if you have good amount for each of those alts, how much you have with bitcoin? BNB looks great and you are never wrong choosing that coin.

I see RVN hopping up a lot recently but I know absolutely nothing about it. QTUM and NEO I know about from a couple years ago. I feel like NEO has lost popularity since 2017 compared to some later dapp coins. I may pick up some NEO though, I had some in 2017 and still have a very tiny bit. I don't know anything about KMD and Zcoin.

Why is that? centralized?

I'm no fan of xrp, as a cryptocurrency it is complete trash, but the fact that the market seems to be oblivious to that made me finally buy some now. I figure if the market has allowed a centralized bank coin that is basically just a fundraising coin for a company become the third largest cryptocurrency for almost the past two years the market will probably continue to treat it as a high value coin so it will probably go far higher.

EOS and Tron seem like relevant competitors to Ethereum so i think they are good picks. They are a lot more centralized but I think they'll be big on this bull run, competing with Ethereum for dapp development and usage.

I actually think EOS has the most potential for gains among high cap coins this bull run. It's already popping. Hell I bought it less than 3 weeks ago at $3.60, and just bought again yesterday at $5.58, and now its at $5.80+. Its growing like crazy now and at 5 billion marketcap, I couldn't believe it yesterday when I looked back at what I had bought it at recently and it was all the way down at $3.60 haha. I could totally see it hitting a quarter billion (50x from here) in the next 2-3 years at its peak this bull run. It's gonna be my highest held coin outside of bitcoin and ethereum. I've put in $1300 to EOS as of now and I will probably increase that to $2000 over the next few weeks. I definitely think I could sell that amount for in the $60k - $100k region in a couple years. It's the most popular dapp network right now as Ethereum's ICO boom basically almost all went broke and it has less daily usage than EOS now.

My bitcoin is still 87.76% of my portfolio as of this second (down from 90.9% last week since I bought some more altcoins yesterday).

I loaded up on a lot more EOS yesterday, as well as some more Tron, binance coin, cardano, chainlink, ontology, monero, holochain, vechain, and zilliqa. And i made initial purchases of decred, dash, and nuls. I know nothing about nuls just saw some dude on youtube talking about it so and i saw it was a lower cap coin so i was like sure i'll take a small shot on it just cuz haha.

Don't believe everything you watch on youtube about the coins that they are suggesting. It is obvious that they have those coins so they are advertising it so they can add and contribute to the economy of that coin. Anyway, good luck with all of your holdings, I thought you are mostly dealt with altcoins and has smaller part for bitcoin.

No doubt. Your choice is very good and safe. I am also looking for references, coins with a market cap under $20 million. Interesting to know in this range.

actually what's interesting? I don't know what makes a coin attractive with capitalization of less than $ 20 million. Are there considerations for improvement that will be obtained with a fast time?

Can you please list those altcoins please that are new and look promising because I have been looking for one and seems not to get any, most of the one that looks promising to me end up getting being dumped by their investors, and this could only happen when they are not able to hold their project firm or have a working product.

Take a look at Binance now, Binance price keeps appreciating and you will hardly see much dump in it, because they have a working product that can guarantee the value and safety of investors investment, many of its investor believe that the coin will keep appreciating because it has a product that people are really making use of on a daily basis.

If he can handle all of his coins, it will not be hard always to check the price of every coin. He can use software to help him to check his coins without login to the exchanges. I think I have more than 15 coins too and so far, I use tabtrader to check every coin I have, and I enjoy to use that app.

Yes, I agree with you. He should have ethereum, but I am not with bitcoin cash, maybe it will be a good choice too. If the price of his coins increases, he can start to sell the coins to gain the profit.

therefore if you choose a coin to be an investment it is better to buy the top 10 coins in the market if you want to get the desired profit, because the 10 coins are very promising results

It is okay, but I personally do not like these coins from the list: XRP, DASH, Steem.
Steem platform is not decentralized and open as we thought.
Ripple is not a cryptocurrency but something what can be created from nothing.
And DASH is not the best privacy coins, look for example on MimbleWimble coins -GRIN, BEAM which are pretty revolutionary among privacy coins.

mostly you have potential altcoins, I'm sure one of them will go double the price if bitcoin increase again, well good luck. :)

That is a great move that is going to louch you to another level of prosperity when those going began to move up.  I think we are going to gain more this year than in 2017 especially those that are buying now and are ready to hold for long-term. The altcoins you are buying now may turn to millions of dollars when the bull return.

I share your point of view. Ripple cannot be considered a cryptocurrency at all. I have also certain concerns about Steam. I like Cardano very much. This altcoin may come in the top- 5 cryptos one day.

the most important thing is to know where you are putting your money and then you will be very confident with your holding in the long term wish you good luck in your investments

if ripple is not a cryptocurrency then why it is here in the crypto market ?  ripple isnt really a bad coin besides it is already in the top 3 list based on cmc ranking  . im not an investor of crypto but if ever im going to invest or trade im surely going to consider ripple in my portfolio   .


agree on what you said . i do also see that the op already hold alot of good coins  . when the market pumps or when the btc rises again  , not only one one of his coins can double their price but  almost all of them  . this why we should prioritize btc over other cryptos if we want other cryptos to increase

Everyone opinion is different from someone because no one will had the chances of taking risk right now and the investment are also reduced right now when the price of everything is decreasing so it could be changing when the value and the development is stable for the investment some chances are available to get a stand.

I also think so but the Ripple, if we use it for investment, is also pretty good in the future for the price growth again. talking about the problem of Cardano which is one of my favourite altcoins, the potential to be able to continue to increase in accordance with the technology it develops will be able to attract many people to own it and I'm sure the price will be far higher than now.

Lol, you would have just stick with the ones you already know about which are very good selections than the one you just heard someone promoting, you have automatically allowed another person’s opinion to push you into making a decision that is not through your research, which usually backfires, I have done these in the past and many of the coins I have invested in through this method up until now has refused to grow wings to fly along with the bull.

But, I hope you decision is right, you might be lucky enough that the coin will favor you, but most of your coins are okay, at least I have 60% of them too, which shows my selections were right. I will just need to add few more ones before the next bull run.

You are holding too many altcoins and I think you will not be able to control it best. In my experience, you should choose 5 altcoins that can bring you the highest profit. Don't buy too much without analyzing its potential. It is definitely a wrong strategy and it will soon exhaust you.

Yes, it all depends to the result of your analysis so far most of the coin that has OP mentioned is great though its better if you can just limit your coin up to 10 good coins. I make time on looking for the good coins and sometimes i just focus on 3 coins because I believe if i holds more i can earn more.

Nice list, although i am not in the XRP boat because of the ideological reasons.
On the other list i can vouch for ENJ and STEEM though. I don't own Tezos but i have been planning to get in for a while now.

Binance coin the winner
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/binance-coin

As I said in my original post, I do have Ethereum. I'm just not buying anymore of it. I have a bunch of Ethereum from 2017 (and some from trading in 2018). I have mostly bitcoin, some ETH, a little LTC, amd tiny bit of BCH just cuz I was day trading it a bit last year and got stuck in a trade when the prices collapsed in november so now I'll just hold that little bit until the bull market runs up all prices.

I use blockfolio to track the price of all my coins. Very easy, holding this many coins is no problem, especially since all I'm gonna do is wait a couple years until the market is in full on mania mode and hopefully sell everything relatively close to the next peak.

I believe you have done due diligent research on these before coming to this agreement. I am more interested in bnb coin, ppt (its first exchange to be launched soon and tezos which is fast gaining recognition. For new coins, I consider, Veil, cpt, top as my favourite choice

I would like to draw attention to the price of Ethereum and Tezos. There is a possibility of at least 5 times the coins. You really have these possibilities. I'm trying to save.

well. the list looks cool. but the important thing if  you will be able to follow all of them or not. because you should be aware of the every detail to not to loose profit with such amonth of different coins.

Isn’t it better to invest in few coins that are very solid and guarantee huge profit than to invest in hundreds of coins that will rather o off on one, or amount to nothing when it is time to reap the profit, so if he is sure the 5 coins will give him good profit.

I would rather invest in 5 coins than to pack so many of coins that I am not sure in my portfolio, it’s not that I don’t have plenty coins in my portfolio, but most of them are gotten through, either bounty or airdrops, but when it comes to my direct investment, it’s not so far from BTC, ETH, EOS, BNB and STELLAR., which I strongly believe that they are more than enough to give me huge profits in future.

Firstly, holding many coins is not for everybody because it require a level of understanting the market, time and emotion controlling but there's nothing bad in accumuting many coins buddy because every coins have it own uniqueness and the only things that are bad in crypto investment are investing into coins that doesnt have the utility, concept,community support and good volume. However, EOS, XRP and all the centralized coins is not the right coin for every cryptoneir.

You have more opportunities to profit. Binance Coin is a very good coin in my opinion. Because Binance Coin grows when all coins have trouble getting up. I hope you can save your coins for a long time.

Those coins are have a big potential in my opinion. But just wanna know that how much money do you store to bought all those altcoin? And how you divide your capital? And lastly did you get profit a few day back when the price recover?

Actually, I only choose for long term investment when investing on altcoin. Moreover, I still feel a loss although the price has been recovering till this time so as I only hope the price will up again sooner and make my loss gone and I make or change a strategy to gain profit.

And then he has already written all of his choices in front of this thread and i guess you must see that first. Basically he was understand about how to choose a good coin but he was asking more opinions about that.

XRP
EOS
Stellar
Binance coin
XMR
LINK
HOT
WAVES
BAT
Vechain
ADA
ONT
Tron
Zcash
ZIL

lok realy very carefully when you invest xrp and zcash. they are really speculative coin. if you dont buy them in good value, you can lose 50% of your capital in these coins.

all of the altcoins that you have today are the best in the top 100 CMC, you are very brave with speculation that prices are not stable, I once bought alt coin and hold for a long time but with the fall in the price of BTC last year I felt a loss big .

It’s not so easy to keep 15-20 different coins, because you need to follow their development, read the official information channels of these projects to keep up with the latest news, swaps, listings on new exchanges and so on.

I'll go for XRP and EOs. I think it would be hard to expect too much from 15 different coins. We all know that they have their own differences and development. I guess it would be better to stick on a few yet potential coins. However, the prices aren't stable and there will always be changes in time.

ha well to be fair, all of these coins are 99%+ speculative, that's why they're altcoins. The only safe coin is bitcoin. But I'm pretty darn sure all these coins will skyrocket with bitcoin and the rest of the market on this bull run. So goal was just to get a diversified portfolio of coins in the top 50 or so, so if a few of these don't do as well on the bull run perhaps others will make up for it.

Well I'm buying now near the bottom of the market when the bull run is just getting started. I will hold until things are going crazy again, with any luck I can time it fairly close to the end of the bull run in a couple of years or whenever. I don't plan on holding any beyond the end of the bull run (assuming of course I know when the bull run is ending haha).

These are all good coins, if I have additional funds I will do the same, add more coins like the ones in your list the timing is very good, just when the coin is moving up and we are shifting from bear to bull, update this thread on the coins that are listed here where you get the most profit.

Those projects that we see has ones that have very high potentials, we shouldn’t be counting days for them to make profit back but rather years, because counting of days for them is what makes us impatience and end up dumping on them before they could see the light of the day.

We can only toil with those projects that we see that doesn’t have much future potentials and would only get us profit in a short term, Take for example BTC, BTC has a very huge potential and shouldn’t be an investment for day but for years if we really want to fully maximize the profit, so as we should also treat some other altcoins with very great future that we are sure of.

It seems to me that you can’t get carried away much and you need to slightly extend your investments to other projects. Thus, you can minimize the risks, because with the current state of the cryptocurrency market, anything can happen.

I think all the coins op has listed are good coins and definitely there are going to grow in some months and years to come.  I believe that stellar and EOS are going to give big return to those that are ready to invest now and holds them for long-term.

They a bit too many for my taste but a diversified portfolio is key, I would add lif and perhaps a bit of metals, if combined with a safe private key better.

Here, for the most part, everyone recommends investing in the first top 20 coins. Well, it is clear that in the case of growth, they will not stand aside. Far more interesting are the projects whose rating is slightly lower.

coins that are under the top 20 may be assets that have the ability to make bigger profits. but not so safe, less risk if top 20 coins are a good investment choice. but if you can get assets that have the potential to experience a very high increase, it will be very profitable. So, start doing research and looking for assets that can grow several times.

It a good thing to follow the top altcoins, the chances of getting a successful trade is 50:50, among the TOP, the only coins I do trust is BTC, ETH and BNB, I count other ones like the ones below top 20, I have seen some situations where you see a coin fly from below 50 to top 20, while the ones at top 20 goes even below top 20.

 we have too many coins in the market, and all of them cannot all be at the top, because some are not at the top, doesn’t mean they are not offering a good product and services, majority of the ones at the top are there not because they deserve it, just because of the little hype method they use in getting there.

Apart from Tezos which recently caught my attention with close to $1b market cap, I will rather go with Binance coin(bnb). It has a clear potential to do x200B - x50 from the current cap. Binance has injected more utility to the coin through its Binance chain

Some of the coins on the list will do well, that is a given. Also there is a real argument to be made about trading a lot of currencies at once. You only need to make a few good picks and you will most likely end up in profit. This is the kind of a way i started with, i have dialed back the number of coins i hold now tho, its way too much work

Binance coin is a good coin to invest with because they will launch their binance chain.
And i believe that the coins will be worth more than 100$ in a few months

I'm impressed with the list you listed because there are lots of cheap Altcoins because currently investing in cheap Altcoin is a trend. But I think you should remove some of the high-priced Altcoins from the list because Altcoin has a high price, so it's hard to bring in a lot of profit for you in a short time. We should only choose Altcoin at a low price and a lot of potential because they can bring you a maximum profit.

The Altcoin that you collect is indeed good, has a future and you will be able to play it wisely.
It's not easy to play a lot of altcoin and every time you have to monitor it to get a profit.

It seems to me that this strategy is the best thing to do at the moment.  If in 2016 there was a certain confidence in the real results of your investments, even if you invest in one or two altcoins.  But today it is necessary to make so that cuttings were minimal.  At least 10 or 15 altcoins should be in your portfolio.

Back in the day when Bitcoin and altcoins are switching to grow but now it is difficult to switch invest since both Bitcoin and altcoins are in the same way. Diversifying may be good when the market is in bullishness but it would be hard to monitor each token and what token you have to sell first since they were all moving the same way.

I don't think that holding lots of altcoins is a good idea, moreover every altcoin has a considerable risk. holding lots of altcoins
will also make you confused and complicated, I think having 5 altcoins is quite profitable, and certainly safer mate :)

At this time, you have definitely benefited a lot, especially from binance coins, for other coins, my advice is to keep holding until the bitcoin price reaches more than $ 6000, so your accumulated profits are more than now.

I'm not huge into altcoins, but I've owned a few and right now I'm interested in coins you can stake.  Passive income has great appeal for me, though there aren't any good coins that I know of where the return is all that high--but IMO they're worth playing around with. 

What about NEO?  Their wallet is one of the best I've seen, and you can earn GAS without having to have the wallet open 24/7.  Right now the price is pretty low relative to where it's been in the past, so now might be a good time to buy.  And the other coin I've been buying is PIVX and have earned some interest on it so far.

I didn't even recognize some of the coins OP listed, but I'm pretty sure the more obscure ones are really risky.  I'd probably stay away from coins that aren't very well known, as they might have thin markets and could be hard to sell when it comes time to do so.

Hardly any of them, if any, are obscure. The last coin i picked up was just $100 worth of NULS, which I'd say is the only obscure coin, though its still in the top 100. The rest are almost all in the top 50.

I still have a very tiny amount of NEO sitting on an exchange from like 2017.

I actually stopped getting altcoins now. I have 23 coins in total now, 19 of them altcoins I've bought recently. Well and a little NEO and I think Digibyte which are very small amounts I have left over from 2017, so 25 coins total if you count those.

I don't think I'm gonna get any more altcoins now, I decided to make one last bitcoin buy today instead of putting that into altcoins. Probably done accumulating crypto now, other than putting some money on an exchange in the coming months just to trade bitcoin for fun and make some extra money in the short term.

My final altcoin list that I picked up this spring, in addition to BTC, ETH, LTC, and BCH, (and tiny bit of NEO and DGB that I've basically forgotten about) that I already had, in order of how much I bought:

EOS
DOGE (actually this i bought back in November but I'll still count it here since it was the start of my accumulation for this bull run)
XRP
XLM
BAT
TRX
XMR
ZEC
HOT
VET
BNB
ADA
LINK
ZIL
DASH
ONT
DCR
WAVES
NULS


I had planned on possibly picking up a few more and buying more of some of these but I instead bought a bit more bitcoin today to finish up my accumulation phase for this bull run.

Bitcoin, at current prices, comprises 89.8% of my portfoilo, ETH is 4.3%, and other altcoins are 5.9%. Though altcoins are down a bit right now from the average when I bought them while Bitcoin is obviously up since then.

I'm in to bitcoin and altcoin deeply, all these are passive income that if they pump up, you could earn more than your salary. They are lots of altcoins that are worth investment, I invest little in them and after monitoring it for a while, I decide if worth further investment or not.

I ended up getting rid of most of these altcoins i picked up. The altcoin market was booming in March and April but since then it has sat back and watched Bitcoin dominate. I figured Bitcoin would gain back a lot of market share and probably end up back at 70% something, but I didn't think it would do so this fast and the altcoins would just sit around not doing anything for months. Anyway so I only kept Link, Doge (just cuz I have it on robinhood so i can't trade it directly for something else), and kept the LTC, and ETH i already had. I sold the other like 18 or 20 altcoins I had picked up and moved all that into Bitcoin. I think we likely won't see another altcoin boom like we saw with the ICO boom. I'm sure some altcoins will still gain a lot (for example I'm still over 5x up on my LINK), but I think Bitcoin will stay with a high percentage of marketshare.

Amaze to see that you had updated regarding on your situation after 4 months you create this thread.I cant blame you that you do sold out majority of them and focusing or heavily switch up or more ration in Bitcoin.The question is, are you in positive with your capital or invested amount? If does then its okay even you do sold out those alts.

Everything has changed, even the cryptocurrency market. 4 months will give a chance for the coin to changed too, and he makes the right decision to sell his not worth to hold and buy another altcoin which has potential to increase later.

That is good if he moved all funds into bitcoin, and I think that his plan will works good because now we are seeing bitcoin price is getting up so who knows, this time bitcoin can lift the level, and break the higher rate. But still, the altcoin will have the time to increase, and I think his list always be good anyway. So maybe after bitcoin rally, it is turned for the altcoin to start the rally and that means, the bull run is coming.

I like your selection of alt coins, except for TRX. I seriously wouldn't invest in anything that Justin Sun is involved in. Too many lies, broken promises and delays. Also, when U.S. traders exit Binance on 12 September, the price of TRX, BTT & WIN will be affected.

I guess is lies is really gaining him lots of attraction because the rate at which TRON is really gaining so much popularity is really impressing but if we are to keep sentiment aside, Justin really came up with a unique technology also, he might have been lying to create popularity for himself and hype for the coin, but at least when people get to accept the coin, they will see that it is not just an empty vessel.

So, I think that TRON too is also a very good investment as it has lots of great future ahead of him, forget about his lies, but look at the technology of the project itself, you would find that it is a project that will be a successful one in future when it becomes massively used. Other projects the op mentioned are also good and they basically form part of my portfolio also.

I'd advice you to invest in XSN as well, even if it's a low cap project. It's a project that enhances the user experience of BTC and LTC massively by utilizing the Lightning Network in a decentralized way, never seen before. Through masternodes the whole setup is decentralized, and flawless.

Bitcoin will NEVER go mainstream in it's current state. Why? Here's why:

On-chain, Bitcoin is capped at 7 tx/sec. The more activity the network sees, the slower transactions become.
As it grows in value, fees increase as well.
Lightning allows for a theoretically unlimited number of transactions at near-zero fees, but it has seen stagnant growth because there's little financial incentive for individuals to adopt it on their own.
XSN's solution involves using its decentralized MN network and the collateral locked in them to rout payments, act as watchtowers, and provide a ton of liquidity for transactions.
This will bolster Lightning without centralizing it.

As XSN is inflationary, the supply will slowly increase over time and allow more masternodes to participate.
With this design and approach, BTC will be able to scale and take on much heavier workloads without hitting any major bottlenecks down the road.

Additionally, XSN's masternodes are going to use lightning to restore some of BTC's inherent privacy and anonymity that was compromised by CEXs and KYC.
By embedding TOR into the network and implementing lightning atomic swaps, anyone will be able to instantly and privately swap a wide variety of coins without ever having to send them somewhere that is out of their control. This will greatly minimize the need for businesses that accept crypto to adopt 10 different types of coins as so many of them can be instantly swapped into BTC.
Imagine a standard Bitcoin qt wallet with an extra tab that offers everything that a full scale exchange has and you have the essence of Stakenet.

I'm obviously biased, since I invested some of my portfolio in XSN, but I see huge potential in the project, since it's not a direct competitor to BTC, but rather enhances the overall user experience.

Congrats on that. Its good to accumulate alts when prices are low. Some are for long term so if you got the funds, go buy and hodl. Some are good for short trades too.

your altcoin investment is very good and this will provide a large profit, but I see prices for now such as ethereum and bnb are good to buy because they will provide large profits with quality and volume in trading. You are very great and brave with speculation in many altcoins with your money

Most of the altcoins chosen by Op comes on the top of Coinmarketcap. This means

• Low risk on the investment
• Have good trading volume
• Listed on trusted exchanges
• Continued development
• Increase in partnering to
  widen the marketcap

This makes the portfolio strong and the loss won't be big even when there is hard crash in the market

Considering the overview, this is a good investment list and limits the risk, even if the market is in a difficult time, everything remains at a level we can accept but if this situation persists, this investment will be a big worry when altcoin is on the list, it is still falling every day, not much, but the accumulation will be significant. Therefore, we should plan to liquidate some altcoin, holding altcoin in accordance with the current trend, eliminating outdated products, holding too much altcoin will be dangerous at this time.

TRON really looks like a hype project if recent blams of its founder had so negative affect on the price of the token. I guess the rest altcoin in the list might bring profits in the future. I would concentrate now more on Binance Coin and Ethereum. They seem to be the leaders on the market for a long time. Monero will be also a very good choice - this crypto follows BTC changes all the time.

I am a fan of diversifying because I believe that in cryptocurrency there’s no chance in profiting good doing “All In”(even bitcoin investing not unless you can wait for longer time then chances are you may accumulate good amount)because the more coins accumulated is the more chances of getting profit soone.
Why hill of those you had chooses Ripple(XRP)?being centralized can be harmful for people like us who believe in decentralized marketing and investing

There are some good coins in that list, but my main thought is that it's too many different coins. If you spread yourself across quite a wide selection then it may mitigate risk to an extent, but it does make it very difficult to keep up with all the latest developments with each coin, which makes it difficult to know when to sell.

I'm adding the following to my bags of bags haha
Eth, STEEM, Enj,
Bat
Cvc
Ardr
Xvg
Xel
Ptoy
I will add more when I get funds this month hoping I still see good prices not pumped price.

You missed to add to LEDU, it's best to buy it in the dip now, its one of the best Education based tokens in the market with real use case.

I go for BNB, EOS, XRP, BAT, XMR, ADA, TRON, Zcash, XLM. For me, accumulating as many as coins is not my priority. Rather I like to pick good and productive coins that give me profits.

15 coins? why not choose into several options, 4 - 6 coins. More focused, and I think there will be more potential for X200 returns from your investment. Just a suggestion.

true. EOS has those governance problems, the censitary vote was never a good idea, but as investment, for short and mid term it's good. some dapps are really working there and the community is strong. same for trx. they may not be the best in 10 years, but are working well now.

What I think, it`s never enough. You have 15 altcoins, tomorrow you will see a couple of new ones and you will want them too. Never enough coins, you live and you spend, you always need more. More time you spend in crypto, more crypto you want to have, not just top coins, I speak about all the coins you would like to have for some reason.
But wishes and possibilities are two different things.

You may add some coins with smaller cap too, but very promising and with very active team. They can make for you more xx.
Look at Tomochain, Vite, Harmony projects too.

those on the list are the most anticipated coins of this market. there is a lot of money in them that does good work. and they will come to much better places in the future

With due respect, you are totally lost sir, and I don’t think you are new to cryptocurrency for me to have said maybe you got to know about cryptocurrency through XRP, that is why you are loyal to it, or better still, you might be a banker which is why you are seeing ripple as the only good coin amongst all the coin that is listed there. In my own opinion, ripple is even the least of coin that any sensible investor should consider.

Now tell me, why should people really consider ripple, of what benefit has ripple been to the society, in what way has ripple protected the society or made transaction easier, if you can answer all these for me, then maybe I could consider listening to you on ripple.

You should have mentioned those good altcoins that in the list since OP is looking or advices regarding his portfolios.
But keeping too many currency in holding also had a negative effect because all of them for sure won’t go straight up instead there might be some who will fall
I think adjusting to atleast 5-10 Would be great to maintain if this is for long term holding

Well if you are like this then it means you are just investing for the sake of buying new coins. This sounds to me more like gambling and collecting. Or you have a lot of income to spare. If you are like me and your salary is saved specifically for savings and investment then you cannot afford to simply make risky moves like that.

what make you believe if EDU is a kind of good altcoin to buy for now mte ?
if talk about the dip, i think  a lot of altcoin in the dip now,,
so, better to choose the TOP 100 coins at coinmarketcap rather than EDU  ;)

thats absolutely right
because to reduce the risk on cryptocurrency is by split our capital,, and the OP already doing the right thing
and i see the OP have a good list of alts in his portofolio  ;)

But more than 10 coins will be too difficult for him to watch every coin, especially if all of the coins can increase together. That will make him confuse to choose which coin needs to analyze and which coin needs to sell in that time. But all of his coins is good enough to help him to make a profit in the future but be careful because right now, we are seeing bitcoin price is below than $9k so that will impact to his coins list.

Maybe you interest to take a look on HT (Huobi Token) , Binance and Huobi are trying to gain popularity, productivity, and other aspects to their own token exchange, also beside this two token.. KCS is good too but still slowly to follow BNB and HT records.
Even not just token exchange , so many new crypto projects which absolutely good & maybe I recommend like Harmony, Pundi X (NPXS / NPXSXEM)

I just hope you keep those 15 altcoins you are accumulating somewhere safe offline, and not on some exchange.
Personally i would go for a hardware wallet that supports all those coins you are interested in.

All I can say is that those coins are so, so 2017. It has been a milking cow for traders and whales for a year a long time ago and the chances of getting pumped is very low. You should put your focus on newer coins because they have the most active shillers and their prices really move upward more than downward. The older coins can only be saved by the result of their developments which if succeed translate to all time high which is not the case in most of the time.

you have a nice portfolio out there bro but it would nicer if you take out tron and place perlin together with vdx.

Wishes and possibilities always go hand in hand, if the desire to try is strong, the possibility of profit is even greater.  Fate is formed from one's character, always taking advantage while the opportunity is still open.  The more coins that can be collected, the more profit can be obtained.

If you choose 15 alts, it is better to choose them from the top 100 markets, because if you look for coins that are in the middle of the market, you can get to the scam

Top 100 coinmarketcap is good (in case what you means from 100 markets is coinmarketcap). At least they are more better than new tokens that full of speculation. Maybe my suggestion if OP want to pick tokens, which already have produdt or roadmap really updated by developer.

So many if you invest your money in 15 altcoins and it seems that your choice of coins is good because there are also many people who hold coins.
I only invested in 3 coins and that also took up a lot of my time, especially if I hold a lot of coins, I can't monitor them

I wonder, you wrote this post on April 1, 2019, what is the status of your portfolio since then? Are you lucrative or lost money? I just asked because I was curious. By the way, you did a pretty nice portfolio, except for HOT, because I don't think hot will rise too high. I'm sure you will be profitable in the long term.

in my opinion most of this projects are a good choice!
diversifying your holdings is always a good idea
also if one of the moons, you can sell at 10x and invest in the others the earnings
that can build into a good amount by the years

besides BNB I think you need to consider buying some other exchange tokens, like KCS, OKB, and HT. the prices are still cheap and their exchanges have a good reputation, and so is the IEO that took place there. I think the tokens has the potential as BNB

if you already have BTC then the ALT you choose might be able to vary a bit.
EOS, xrp, LINK, ADA and others I think they will be great in the long run.
they are not shitcoin like most ALTs do
pump and dump. And what I see in your list seems like you'll be fine :D

This is nothing just a list of top 15 altcoins after BTC which you have decided to buy. I think this might be a right strategy but in longer term only those coins will prosper who will actually make the lives of people easier or atleast try to make the lives of the people easier.Yes I agree but it's not that the top 15 coins today will always remain top 15 coin so  OP is correct in accumulating different rank coins.

You may be right, you be not! So I don't agree completely with you. Cardono has been very risky investment, not blooming always. XRP has been dumped over 90% in last 2 years. So more or less, your suggestions are also kind of shitcoins. But maybe I am very wrong, time will less.

The most important thing is how the investments will be distributed, what share each cryptocurrency will occupy, how many parts the capital will be divided into. To get a noticeable profit, you will have to periodically sell and buy cryptocurrencies, changing the composition of the portfolio depending on the situation on the market. However, it is really better to pay attention to the top-rated cryptos.

Your take on acquiring some Alt coin is good. Bitcoin and Eth are not the only coin that will yield good returns. While people wait for the massive explosion of btc a d Eth prices, other people are reaping their benefits by investing in Alts. There is no limit on how much profit you can get,  in as much as your investment are well planned  and spread.

Obviously, these are top 100 coins. They have less diffusivity and profit retention qualities. In my opinion, 15 coins might be considerd much but then if half of what he has picked give good returns, then he's fine. I wish him all the best of luck and may the turbulent cryptocurrency tide be gentle on his portfolio

those top 100 coins can give more profit in bull market than those coin in the top 15 in coinmarketcap .
so its good choice add it them not only top 15 .

BTT can fit harmoniously into your list. Bittorrent, the coin of the same name of the torrent client which belongs to the Creator of TRX. I think that if there is a strong bullish trend in the altcoins market, the project will bring great profits to the holders. Also, since you have invested in BNB, it makes sense to look at the exchange coins of other trading platforms, some of them may be sleeping giants. In General, this issue requires study.

You probably got all the opinions you wanted in this thread, but I figured I'd throw my $0.02 in here.  If you have the above coins in good supply, you're good as far as I'm concerned.  If you or anyone else are looking to pick up some alts from the list you made, I'd probably go with at least dash and monero.  Skip ripple and most of the others.  Even if they're high up on coinmarketcap, a lot of them are just dogs in my opinion.

There's so much out there that even picking a decent selection of 15 can be a challenge.  One thing that I've been thinking of doing lately is buying a 'shotgun' portfolio of a bunch of alts, a little bit of each.  It would be sort of like playing the lottery, and tickets right now are looking pretty cheap to me.

Nice attempt shill your shitcoins which fallen in 3-4 times since you have written this  ;D

Good list because I hold a few of them. :)

I feel it's good to hold coins where you follow the progress so best not to get too many in the portfolio.

Thanks for sharing!

Out of the list above am just holding bnb, Enj tem, Apl (not on the list) and I intend to add some few Link, and the majority are on btc, I have narrow my portfolio to this few, I see they have got the potential to grow big and they have great team behind the project, from now on I am also accumulate more of btc as much as I can, can't go wrong with btc.

Of course, it is very easy and affordable to monitor the status of your assets using block applications that can give signals and inform the owner about changes in market conditions.  But it seems to me that today, every investor who invested in most altcoin can only get results with long-term storage, and given the current trend in the cryptocurrency market, it is therefore practically unnecessary to monitor your assets in the near future.

   I have more then 15 alt-coins, and I don`t monitor them, at least not everyday. In past two years we have been in bearish
market, prices are dropping more then they go up. I decided to not monitor them, I will continue to believe in them, accumulate
more of them, and to hope that one day prices will be much higher. Everyday monitoring is stressful for us long-term holders, that`s
why I don`t practice that.

I try to buy low the historical top coins (such as DOGE, LTC) that are sure to cycle up that 30% and then probably fall back down again, where I will buy them again.  It's hard to believe in the 200% and over gains we've seen before.  I know some new coins are always doing that, and I feel that it will happen again to the top historical coins.

You're right but every cryptocurrency in the market including bitcoin experience the dump in price. However, your reply is not helpful to the OP cause he's lost and seeking the forum for direction and I will advise the OP to sell all the altcoin he's holding especially VDX cause altcoin which it  platform is for eCommerce ecosystem don't thrive these days.

This is a great portfolio, you picked old altcoins, as well as new ones and did not forget about the main crypto. In my opinion it is an awesome pile that would bring you good profit, surely when bulls will finally arrive.

This task of choosing optimal altcoins to invest can be mitigated significantly by placing assets into some crypto investment fund, which will rationally redistribute assets depending on the market analysis between different coins and cash.

For example, Crypto10 smart index fund (https://invictuscapital.com/crypto10hedged) provides investors with exposure to the top 10 cryptoassets by market capitalisation, while limiting loss of capital through a dynamic cash hedging mechanism. The weekly rebalance period allows the fund to be nimble and it would have been able to retain the vast majority of the fund value at the peak of the bull market.

By collecting 15 altcoins in my opinion is not an effective way to get profit. Because there will be difficulties in monitoring it, it's true
we don't need to monitor for 24 hours. Still, we have a hard time making it. My advice it will be more effective around 3-5 altcoins only.
Because who knows of the 15 altcoins will instead become shitcoins, if already become shitcoins instead of making a profit. Selling it
will be difficult. Try to consider again the investment plan in 15 altcoins whether it can bring profit.

Each of us understands the full degree of risk when you invest in new projects and in old coins.  The situation in the cryptocurrency market changes very often and we are not able to foresee everything.  Nevertheless, before making investments, you need to not only submit to the result of technical analysis, but also to normal logic.  The fact is that it is necessary to logically evaluate the prospects of each project in the future, as well as how much it will be in demand and whether it will be practically applied.  Only in this case, a possible project will have good prospects in the future, and the investor a good profit with long-term storage coins.

sad to see that most of coins you hold is down so much. maybe just few of them can grow such as LINK
most coins which you choose is good and well-known in cryptocurrency, but it doesnt mean that always can be pump
we have to consider the market sentiment too, isnt it bearish or bullish. that's why most coins you hold is down

That is good! But for me holding 15 altcoins is not easy. It requires time and efficiency in terms of trading. 3 altcoins are enough to be profitable specially if you buy them during the crash. I think it is hard to handle 15 altcoins because it might be a cramming for you to sell out them during crash.

Anyway, whatever we using techniques and how do we handle the coins we have, it is a matter how do we hold coins and how do we earn from them.

We can hold such bitcoin and ethereum for long term purpose and trade others altcoin in short term period.

Indeed. I just like to add, dividing your capital to a lot of altcoins could be risky since each of them has its own volitality swings. Let's say for instance you've gained well in XRP, there's a high chance that you'll end up losing more from other altcouns in your portfolio than you get from the XRP. Thus, your profit for each altcoins could be useless to the sum of your porfolio.

Well despite you have 15 diff alts, its pretty diversify judging from your portfolio selection

Although you might not be able to gain super huge, as diversified split the risk so does the ratio reward.
But i would say its a good practice in long run

If you invest just into 1 coins, you are expose to huge gain but same towards your risk if you are into those unknown alts

Jesus Christ, 15 altcoins? That is a lot. I don't know how will you ever track each one of them. But I think it is ok to have 15 different types of coins to diversify and if you got them almost free. But if you ask me, I wouldn't invest hard earn money into 15 coins. Maybe I'll pick 5 solid ones, the rest may be giveaways or airdrops.

Too many altcoins you have Ill think one them are more have future of holding it cause I saw that have a potential one of your altcoins, Are you still holding it right now and how many years you hold that kinds of altcoins? Ill have altcoins in my folio but some of them are in low of price, I'm holding them since a year of 2017 but nothings happen for them so maybe I will remove them in no time if I feel not Interested on them.Their will be chance also becoming a shitcoins and only a cents we can get if Im sell them.

For me, long term coins this year do not bring any profit and only made us lose a lot of money during the past time. Most have only a few coins that can grow well this year and everything is very much dependent on the value of Bitcoin. In fact, altcoin investment will take a lot of time to wait and must analyze volatility to be safer in the bear market.

I personally only care about profit and not have much trust when investing in altcoin because this market is clearly manipulated and this is a game where you have to accept losing money if that coin drops.

Yes, it is really very hard to purchase 15 altcoins because we need to invest some money from our pocket to accumulate 15 altcoins we need to have more knowledge towards the coins because we have to check their concerned products and developments from the company. Otherwise, it is impossible for us to make a decent profit for holding them.

I believe those 15 altcoins aren't bought by OP, most of them should be from ICO or bounty. I myself also have more than 15 altcoins until now which i got them from bounty in 2017. Some of them have been sold and same of them still i hold until now.

It's not hard to invest even in 100 altcoins, if you only have 1 coin/token from different coin/token, it's mean you already investee on it

Unless you are a very experimented investor or that is your only activity it is going to be very difficult to monitor so many altcoins in an effective way, it is better to concentrate in only a very small number of altcoins that you know in a very profound way, this way as soon as something suspicious happens you'll notice immediately and if necessary you will take any actions that you may need to resolve that situation but with so many altcoins that will be extremely difficult.

You don't do that, its your mind over your emotion that is used when investing, I think OP knows that as its pretty basic when investing.
The fact that he is accumulating 15 coins, this only means one thing, he just want to minimize the risk by diversifying his investment in different projects.

You have chosen the right coin. yes, there I see BNB in your list. You are right and I think you will still be able to get profit. now we must be careful and careful in choosing the type of coin because the loss must be eliminated within us

you have mention for not paying attention to the altcoins and how come that there are tons in your folio and willing to add more?i think you have gone far and need to minimize your action because altcoins are very risky not like bitcoin so better try to figur out again your plans before its too late.
i support diversifying since then because i believe that its much safer than All In One,but having more than 10 is too much.adjust to lower and add the percentage to the most you love and trust.

But to our misfortune things to not really work in that way, while in many markets investing in different assets can be a great way to protect yourself in the case one of them fails in this market where there is such a high level of failure rate among most coins you are doing the opposite, the more coins that you buy the greater exposure to risk because there are higher chances that you select a bad project that eventually fails, then the right strategy in this market is to buy as few coins as possible while obtaining the most benefits from them.
