Ladies and Gentlemen, newbie here.

Anyone have suggestions as to which altcoins can serve the purpose of hedging against Bitcoin during market movements that we are currently experiencing?

I do not expect to find a unicorn, however any input on this topic is welcome.

Hey guys, newbie here.
 
I'm looking for your insights regarding the subject.
If you were to lose trust in the future of the current governance ecosystem, what coins would you invest in other than BTC?

Please don't reply with "do your own research," this is a part of my research.

So far I have had good experiences with investing into ICOs, however, you should be able to analyze the potential of the ICO and the need for the new token.
A large portion of the ICO tokens just get pump & dumped once they hit exchanges, so be careful in choosing where to put your money (short/longterm).

Also, with Vitalik Buterin's recent statement regarding the ICOs, I believe their worth as an investment will slowly decline.

Personally, I like to diversify in interesting coins with low/mid/high marketcap.

For now I am very interested in ARK, too bad I didn't buy in a little earlier but I still think that its prospects for growing are solid.
Also looking to get into XRP, LTC, DASH sometime soon.

A. VISA approval.

Honestly, if they dont get approved by VISA, would it be so devastating to confront MASTERCARD/CIRRUS?
