1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: February 04, 2018, 04:37:32 PM
Been reading up on XMR and want to get into privacy for 2018. Like XMR because it's already established and should have stable/steady growth, which will be good for where it'll fit in my portfolio.

Are there any potential developments for big spikes coming in 2018? My understanding is that Monero is basically deployed as a working product and upcoming developments would be mostly just enhancements. Any chance at partnerships or any newsworthy moments? Or is XMR just a slow and steady riser?

Bullet proofs come in 2018. Bullet proofs will see a space savings/fee reduction of ~80% on standard 2 output transactions but much higher space savings on transactions with more than 2 outputs. After that the next big development will probably be kovri. I don't know if we can expect to see kovri on main net in 2018 though. The focus of the monero project is on steady improvement of the core product rather than flashy new "me too" features.

Great, thanks. Basically confirmed what I already suspected.

I've got some coins that I expect to pump more than XMR in the short term but am excited to move the profits to Monero in the near future.

That's what I thought. I do want a coin targeting the financial market but think I'm leaning towards OMG long-term.

I do have some XLM right now but will probably dump it when FairX pump is finished.

No stability and 2 coins I've never heard of.
Also not a fan of XLM at all.

OMG and LTC are the only coins I would feel ok with in that list.

I would feel pretty insecure running this profile

Curious, why don't you like XLM?
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Portfolio Review: Thoughts on my diversification? on: February 03, 2018, 06:28:46 PM
Having trouble really deciding on how to rearrange my portfolio for 2018. Any thoughts are welcome.

Goal is to target the top end of my portfolio to coins that have or are close to a working product and with potential for steady growth in 2018. Remaining 20% of the portfolio is for mid-cap coins with potential for big growth and small cap coins that may not be close to a working product yet.

Current investment is less than $5000.

WIDE SPREAD w/o ETH
19% NEO
14% XLM
12% XMR
12% VEN
12% ICX
10% AMB
10% ENG
5% AIX
5% SMALL CAP COIN(S)

LESS SPREAD w/o ETH
24% NEO
17% VEN or ICX or XMR or XLM
14% VEN or ICX or XMR or XLM
14% VEN or ICX or XMR or XLM
10% AMB
10% ENG
5% AIX
5% SMALL CAP COIN(S)

LESS SPREAD w/ ETH
24% NEO
24% ETH
12% VEN or ICX or XLM or XMR
12% VEN or ICX or XLM or XMR
10% AMB
10% ENG
5% AIX
5% SMALL COIN(S)

So really I have a few established goals:

1. NEO will be my biggest holding and takes the place of ETH to some extent if I hold no ETH. Prefer to hold at least 20% NEO.
2. AMB and ENG are my mid(ish)-cap coins and I'd like to hold about 10% in each.
3. 10% of my portfolio will be for small cap coins

Biggest indecision is what to do with the remaining 60% of the portfolio. ETH, XLM, XMR, ICX and VEN are all options. I worry about spreading myself too thin but I also like all of these coins/projects so I'm having trouble narrowing it down.

Based on the size of my current investment, how spread/diversified would you guys recommend I be? Also any thoughts on XLM, XMR, VEN, ICX as longer term holds are appreciated.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which are your top 5 coins for HODL? on: January 11, 2018, 11:24:04 PM
NEO
XLM
XRB
REQ
ETH

Above is my plan for 2018.

For shorter term holds that may turn into long-term HODLs, I'm pretty excited about AIX.
