To be frank, I don't think I would go for any of them. Currently, the market is not too good and many people are yet to know which angle we are heading to, so I would rather go for coins with faster growth and recovery rate like SOL, CAKE, BNB, ETH. SOL is good because more projects are now looking towards its blockchain to launch, there is speed and cheap fee as well as support for some of these projects, CAKE is good as well owing to its staking and farming features, which makes the token work other than just staying in the wallet, BNB is also trying to maintain its potential. ETH on the other is the best now because it seems to be the centre of attention and attraction owing to forthcoming features and upgrades.

It is not easy lossing money no matter small one might think it is, but however that's what we have to embrace first before Investing in crypto, that is learn the risks and learn how to live with it. Also, I think the best way to manage losses is by leaving the token in private wallet for long term while making peace with yourself, because one of the surprising thing is, most tokens which were abandoned turned around this year during the bull run, thus crypto surprises a lot, in the same way, if you think you can't afford to lose out entirely, you can dump at loss and move on.
Lastly, about diversifying, it is a very good approach to limit or reduce losses from altcoins however in as much as it can help to reduce losses it can also cause more losses, so the best way to make it work is by investing in good coins only, not hyped coins or pump and dump coins.

Well, although they were not entirely correct but to an extent they tried with their conviction. That is, after Defi, Meme coins took over wherein Doge lead them, Shiba Inu and the others contributed to it, although it didn't last for long. Then, now we have the NFT tokens taking over, thus the reason they were correct to an extent.
Now with NFT tokens taking the centre stage, we do not know what to expect and how long it will last, but one thing is certain, which is, just as during other trends that some tokens pumps massively, so will the case of NFT tokens be, although won't be all but a good number will do so, at least it is happening already.
Lastly, this issue of which token that will go to the Mars will make a lot of people chase scam tokens where hype is much and the team making promises they can't fulfill, therefore in as much as anyone would want to follow the NFT trend caution should be exercised.

In as much as no one can appropriately say this time or that time is the best time to get into crypto, but at some point one can pay attention on the market and know when to make a move. Like currently now, a lot is happening within the NFT ecosystem where already launched tokens are pumping and a lot are on the pipeline getting ready to come up, so if you are someone who follows crypto trend, then you might want to look into NFT ecosystem, study it and know the type of NFT tokens you would want to buy.
It is already known that, as long as the NFT trend lasts, the same will the good tokens keeps pumping. Lastly, if you would want to join up, of which a lot of people are already in, you must also carryout your due diligence while looking out for scam tokens. Moreover, the market is gradually picking up, so you can enlarge your wings to know the best coins to get into.

You really should be careful with all these platforms claiming to offer good price speculation and predictions because from time immemorial, predictions hardly works or do not work, because if it does then a lot of people won't get trapped when the market dumped, if it works a lot of people will be the ones spreading the news about the platform's that helped them with price predictions. Just like it is always being said, crypto is volatile thus you ought to take appropriate actions to ensure you do the right things and as such joining any platform claiming to help with predictions might only end badly.
Rather I would say, if you are a long term investor pay attention on those good coins with working products, they tend to reduce the problem of putting yourself in tension thinking about the market.

To cut the whole story short, pay more attention on NFT tokens. We are in NFT trend and many upcoming projects are already targeting towards it, already launched NFT tokens are pumping while most platform are trying to see if they can incorporate NFT features within their projects, features such as NFT marketplace and so on.
So the option is, either you look for already launched NFT tokens with good use cases which are yet to experience a massive pump and invest in them or you focus on upcoming NFT platforms with good features and team, then know when to get involved with them at an early stage.
Most importantly, ensure to carry out your due diligence many scam projects are already out there.

In my own opinion about the title, I think after learning how to research about a coin, the next thing to learn is how to know the entry point and exit point, this is very important in order to avoid buying the top, although no one can know it all actually. Before buying a coin you need to decide your holding pattern, if you will go for long term or short term, this will further Influence the type of coin you would want to buy. Normally, top 20 on coinmarketcap are good for long term because the products and services are already developed, nevertheless wait for price correction before buying mostly when you are going for long term.
On the other hand, for short term holding, most new coins can be good targets, since you will buy, sell and maybe buy lower again if you believe in the project. And lastly, it is always good to wait when a coin is already pumping, there will always be correction, if you think you can't wait it out, then focus on other coins. In the same way, buying in bits is also advisable because rather than going up, it might dump further, hence providing more entery point.

This post, speculation or prediction was made months ago by May to be precise and it didn't happen, rather the market dumped badly. Making speculations is good as it shows you are following the market but what's more important is taking or making the right decisions, which goes further to mean that, not all predictions should be followed, once you miss a train you might consider leaving it for another, while waiting patiently to get into that desired coin when the price corrects.
Nevertheless, there tends to be different levels of predictions which depends on the coin in question, that is, a prediction might be made about a coin, and it dumps rather than go up, it doesn't mean it won't get there but will do so in the near future, it now depends on the holder and if he is willing to hold long term. While on the other hand, most Influencers will just be making predictions (or hyping) a coin which might not even come to fruition. So in all ramifications, know when to follow a prediction, when to take a break and when to ignore.

Axie Infinity, I believe it is one of these NFT projects and I have seen the massive growth so far. Well, the only possible idea to why the coin has gone up quite high for days now is owing to the current trend, that is the NFT trend. As it is with crypto trends, we will soon be seeing more of these growth within NFT projects because many people are buying already to make profit, that is, a new one with good use case will pump massively and even more if top exchanges lists them outrightly. In the same way, as it is with crypto trends, scammers will resurface again to take their own share of what the NFT ecosystem offers.
Also, the sustainability of this token will depend on the team and how long they are willing to keep providing and improving on their NFT use case and adoption, the more they do, the more the token grows.

You are new to the crypto space but already obsessed with investing in some coins you might know nothing about, how much do you know about THETA, unless you have done a very good research on these coins and find them worthwhile, but even at that, you need to take it slow while you know more about crypto investing.
In as much as you are obsessed into investing right away the first lesson you need to learn is, crypto is volatile and there are risks, and one of the best way of reducing these risks is by investing in only good coins like BTC and ETH. On that note, start with the coins that have or can give you a high confidence of holding, and not those whose team can run out of ideas and abandon the project, or pump and dump coins.
Nevertheless, with the nature of the market now which is not too favourable, you need to be careful, learn all you need to know about a coin before investing and do so with your spare.

On one hand I will agree with you to an extent, and on the other hand I won't agree with you. About the agreement part, CAKE is good because of its unique staking features which holders are already benefiting hugely from it, although it depends on the amount of CAKE but however, holders are still making some sort of passive income. SOL also is another good coin, I have noticed that the recovery of SOL from a bad market is always fast this I think can be attributed to the good nature of the platform.
About the disagreement part, I think I find it wise not telling people how much to invest in a coin, that is, you can suggest a good coin but let the investing amount be left to them such that they can make better decisions.

I don't think anyone can deduce this accurately, because if anyone can I also don't think the person will be willing to share it, moreover this space is highly unpredictable thus deducing such a thing is very hard. If anyone tells you he can, then you have to be very careful and trading with extreme caution.
Generally with the market, it is mostly controlled by Bitcoin and most times by weekend it tends to be in dump which will drag the market as well, while week days it tends to be in green, but now it looks like it has changed with dump happening anytime and pump anytime as well, thus the reason I said no one can deduce it properly.
In addition, if you are trader you need to know your stuffs and trade carefully, manipulation and fud seems to be always lurking around when the market want to pump.

Well, that's not really true, the reason why the price of Litecoin decrease or dump is because it is reacting to the nature of the market, some people buys and some people sells, and when the market is not too good, more people will sell thus leading to more price drop and most times even when the market is good, the price might not still increase because most people have their attention somewhere else, and in some cases it do increase.
Therefore, in this case, for the price to rise, falls on the team, the reaction towards their project's development will determine the reaction of the community and investors into buying. This is just the case of Litecoin as well as with other coins.
So in other words, Litecoin is good but however the team need to work hard to give the users and investors something good to look forward to which in return will lead to price increase.

TKO is an exchange token if my memory serves me right, and so with some exchange tokens, whatever the team are working on will contribute to the growth of their token, hence this is what I believed is happening to TKO. Also, for TKO to pump irrespective of what Bitcoin is doing to the market also goes a long way in showing how serious their team are, exchange tokens like this, will stand the test of time if the team put in more effort. This happened when the market was not too friendly, what then will happen when the bulls return? Actually no one can tell, since no one can really predict anything.

There are actually things we can't explain not because of anything but because it is entirely out of our hands, understanding and imaginations. No one actually thought that Doge coin will get where it is today, but just like that, everything changed, it got attention and now trading on most top exchanges, and in the midst of these, the total supply was not much considered.
Also, before I used to think that Total supply will limit most coins from growing the way they want to, but nowadays that mindset has changed as everything now depends on the team, working products and possibly hype, although in many cases it is just entirely hype. Now with this little explanation, Shiba Inu might get to 1$ if and only if it will be hyped never like before, and this might not happen so soon, but will take a lot of time. Secondly, the total supply will really have to be reduced for it to achieve this, it is just too much.

XRP is one tough coin that after all that happened it's still maintaining a good position on coinmarketcap and for a long time now, I haven't heard anything about the SEC case (or maybe I wasn't following up again) which is now giving the coin more room to breath and grow, and maybe regain its position on coinmarketcap, although it might be hard to happen again.
Well, talking about the price of XRP, much have not been heard about any developments and owing to that, the price pump will somewhat depend on Bitcoin, that is, if the bulls returns and Bitcoin pumps bringing about good confidence and positivity to the market, XRP might follow suit as their holders or big players might want to pump it to $1.

And did it come to pass? No it didn't thus proving once again that no one can predict this space, you just have to do your best, get involved with good coins, hold long term and watch your predictions and/or target prices happen. Nevertheless, I must say that the B event had a good impact on the crypto space at least we saw Bitcoin went up well, and while some people were predicting it will dump after the event, it only but went up until more than $40k; Bitcoin as well as the market really have a way of surprising everyone.
In my own speculation, ETH reaching 10000$ is quite possible but that is a very long term target which will demand serious hardwork from the team, and when this will happen no one can really predict.
In the same way, BNB will reach 1500$ and although it might look close to reach at the same time, you can't really predict it but to keep your fingers crossed while keeping it in your wallet or use it for launchpad events.

In terms of speed and transaction cost, Litecoin is better than Bitcoin so is other coins but that is not enough, because if it is really enough I don't think other coins can beat Litecoin down on coinmarketcap. The fact is, in addition to speed there is need for a platform to offer what is obtainable in the crypto space at a point in time and this is where coins like Binance Coin (BNB) stands out; the team have good sense of engagement thus buying early into any idea or trend happening so as to benefit and keep their users from checking other platforms.
Litecoin is very good, there is no doubt but I feel that team can do better, leverage on the good features they have to expand their operations and developments and watch how new investors will get involved because they have the reputation and trust already.

Considering the date of this post, many people and/or experts predicted that June to July there will no much upward movements but sideways which indirectly, one can said it happened not until few days that Bitcoin crossed the $40k range before dumping again, and since Bitcoin controls the market to a great extent, the dump was felt by some other coins.
However, for few days now, the market has been showing good signs which mostly is coming from NFT tokens, therefore with more people taking advantage of the NFT trend and the little few good news surrounding the crypto space, the bulls might be back sooner than later. Another thing is that, a lot of people still claims that the market is bullish and will likely pick up by August while others claims by end of the year, so no one can really predict but to watch how everything will play out.

What keeps most coins ahead of others is the level of improvements and developments the team have done, are doing and will do, this will attract more investors to it hence leading to more market cap which then will make the coin overtake another on coinmarketcap.
Starting with Binance, we have seen the level of commitment within the team thus the developments they have done over the years, also currently they have developed an NFT marketplace which will make them to be in line with what's happening in the crypto space which of course will lead to more growth of BNB coin. Also, don't forget there is an outstanding DEX exchange on Binance Smart Chain.
Now in the case of Litecoin, how much of a development have we seen recently, how much of what the team are working on have we seen recently as well? There is no doubt, Litecoin is one of the prominent good old coins, but the team needs to step up their game in order to attract more users, Investors and of course more growth.
Therefore in my opinion, Litecoin will find it hard overtaking Binance again, because Binance team are are not slowing down anytime soon.
