These coins/tokens are in same niche market and I hold them (among many). I am wondering how people who are invested (in 1, 2, or 3 coins) split their investment percent wise.
Mine is split this way among this 3...
ICX 53%
ARK 26%
WAN 21%
Thoughts on which to increase decrease? Personally I wanted to increase my WAN holdings.
Thanks.

With 1,610 coins & tokens (and rising), how are you finding good or promising new coins?I used to spend countless hours researching each coin and focusing on a few but it became unsustainable with new coins sprouting as fast as they do. I used to focus on the; 1. Project/idea 2. Team (dev, marketing, owner/supporter) 3. Favorable news/reviews 4. Market support 5. Exchanges it is listed on 6. Collaborations EDIT in: I rarely "hunt" for new coins nowadays...I let them show up instead (near or in top 100 with decent community support). I may miss the max gain but it seems safer this way.  Some coin/token creators have been very "creative" as well and focused on deceiving investors...basically selling something they don't have (not even an idea). With them is the birth of new "weak handed" investors which creates an even more volatile crypto market. For those who are in crpto for the long haul, these are just annoyances and even welcome for creating buy opportunities but I believe it is not good for crypto image specially during it's infancy. I was over diversified and used to hold 35-40 coins, after consolidating, it is now down to 21. It will fluctuate (up or down) depending on me finding good new coins. My target is now is about half my old portfolio... 15-20 coins. |

It is nice to see continuous recovery the past several weeks. Within the past 4.5 months, my portfolio dove down losing more than 75% its value from ATH to the low around April 4. Since then, it went up and doubled...and while it is still less than 50% my ATH, it is an encouraging sight. Hope this trend continues. BTW, I am aware things will continue to oscillate (up and down) but as along as the general trend is upwards it is good. What's your story? |

Given the "cheap" BTC price, I went in and bought some last night and re-invested it by buying the following alts...
ICX
VEN
NEO
RPX
QTUM
REQ
NANO
I already hold these before (out of my 24 coins) and just strengthened my position on them. These coins represent 7 of my top 8 holding and chosen for (both short and long term) growth potential. I believe these will outperform BTC or ETH growth wise but I could be mistaken.
Critique welcome.

So I used to hold as much as 40 coins...I've since shrunk it down to 25 coins/tokens but I want to reduce it further if possible. I have about $3,000 on these 8 coins and I'd rather re-invest some of it to better coins if possible. THIS IS NOT MY FULL PORTFOLIO!!!The candidates to be PURGED are:APPC PRL NCASH DBC TEL UTK
QLCKEY While I consider these the least ideal among my coins, I think all have growth potential. Thus the need for "encouragement"/help which to purge. Thank you. |

This is an ARK shill.  I started staking ARK on 09/2017. I earned a net of 154 coins in less than 6 months, and that is less the delegate voting fee and transfer fees. My holdings increased over time...starting from just 91 coins (initial purchase). My current average annual return is 12.65% (this fluctuates). The beauty of ARK DPOS is that you just move the coins to a wallet, vote for a delegate and you are done. No need to run your computer to stake, no power consumption, much less exposure to hacking, no down time due to power outage, etc. ARK is a solid project, very active, and sold on good exchanges (Bittrex, Binance, OKEx, etc.). It had a slow start, but they are now rolling out products and also engaged a new marketing team. The dev team is great and the multiple projects are very ambitious...but progressing as promised. If I have one complain, IMHO they have too much projects going which in itself is actually good. With prices as low as they are now, the current product roll out, and marketing... there is no better time to invest. ARK for me is one of the most under valued coin at the moment.Personally, I plan on strengthening my ARK position and hoping to buy more soon. Just sharing my thoughts before it takes off!  |

A bird whispered in my ear that we are entering crypto "sunny days" again. Giddy on how high the new ATH will be. I just hope BTC increase slowly so the alts will ride with it...otherwise, alts might be left behind for a while then recover later. We will see. |

EDIT. Never mind, decided to sell all my Monero and put the money on other coins instead.

Below is a list of 36 coins I currently hold. I see potential in all of them so a bit difficult for me to decide which to axe. I need help from unattached but knowledgeable (in crypto) people if possible. Ideally, I want to keep it around 25 coins. Bold are all likely be kept (unless I hear strong argument against them). All proceeds will be used to repurchase crypto (re-invested). Which of these do you think should I purge?

I am excited!!! https://medium.com/@arkaces/aces-completes-integration-of-ethereum-channels-for-two-way-transfers-and-contract-deployment-297b66ae1d5cACES Completes Integration of Ethereum Channels for Two-way Transfers and Contract Deployment Services. Plus Commentary on ARK ICOs.
The ACES team has completed integration of services for Ethereum to the updated ACES protocol. This means users can conduct two-way transfer services and contract deployments and gain the benefits of our API implementation and in the near future conform to a global marketplace standard for listing and consuming services.Now that we have several types of services available, the ACES team will now focus our efforts on building out user-interfaces to the marketplace. We encourage communities to reference our repositories to modify the open source code to work for your favorite coins. With ARK, Bitcoin and Ethereum protocols complete and available as reference, a wide variety of alt coins should be much easier to integrate.We encourage users to implement services to connect to ARK, because doing so will allow ARK to serve as the hub for services, and additional connections will gain the benefits of all existing connections. As shown in a prior post, ETH to BTC services are now available by connecting to services together. Using ACES + ARK Push Button Blockchains for ICOs It is apparent that using ACES alongside ARK’s Push Button Blockchains is a powerful idea. New projects looking for use ARK’s push button clonable blockchains are encouraged to launch an ACES service alongside with their chain as part of their ICO. Doing so instantly connects your coin to the rest of the crypto-ecosystem because of the service-linking concept described in the previous post. In this way, you would be able to receive funding in any connected coin without directly knowing it, as all steps in the chain convert to ARK in the final step. Additionally, if you are launching a new blockchain and own 100% of the supply, you can launch an ACES service to provide all of that capacity and effectively start an instant ICO. Users would go to your ACES service to receive your new coin, depleting the services capacity towards zero for the duration of the ICO. This means you would not need to use an intermediate coin for your ICO as coins like EOS and VeChain have done with Ether. This approach also provides great protection to your community members. We have seen many new coins unable to list on more reputable exchanges, subjecting their community to increased theft and loss of coins. The ACES protocol will lead to quicker integration of new coins to the global cryptosphere, reduced risk to users and investors, and dramatically improved cryptocurrency utility. What’s next We are working on the first iteration of the marketplace UI, which will demonstrate peoples ability to register service applications to the directory. Over time we will expand this to include service execution, registration, management and reviews. We are also actively seeking other communities to get involved building services that are compatible, getting their feedback on what works and what doesn’t, and improving the software in iterative steps. |

I just read one thread about the red market "blaming" Vitalik Buterin. I find that laughable. The real reason is people are starting to bet on BTC again and selling alts even cheap. It always go through this cycle before the alts really take off. Some also use the opportunity to collect more alts later...sell now (high), buy later (low). It can be a good way to play but very risky. I used to do it but learned I don't have the nerve to be in that game. Play it, or HODL...both are valid ways to go. Just don't panic, bullish market is coming...BTC first then alts (may dip a little but) will follow. |

https://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/news/myetherwallet-co-founder-splits-launch-rival-platform/MyEtherWallet Co-Founder Splits to Launch Rival Platform MyEtherWallet is one of the popular and widely used wallets for holding Ethereum tokens. However, MyEtherWallet co-founder Taylor Monahan unexpectedly announced last Friday the launch of her own cryptocurrency wallet platform, MyCrypto.com, following the split from MyEtherWallet. Taylor announced both news items in a long Medium post. She notes: “I was terrified—am terrified—at the potential harm this change will have on myself, the team, and/or the Ethereum community but ultimately, the risks created by continuing down the road we were on are greater than the risks of splitting to a new brand, new company, new name, and new domain. While contemplating this decision, I began to see that my inaction would be the only thing that guaranteed my failure.” MyCrypto is currently a forked version of MyEtherWallet, but its team assured that they will soon launch an enhanced version of the website, along with desktop and mobile applications. This sudden controversial move was a shock to the wallet users and many did not take it well. MyEtherWallet's abrupt change in branding to MyCrypto should have been announced using MyEtherWallet's social media accounts first. This is a very amateurish way of handling it. This is coming from an everyday user of MEW and its biggest fan. — Joseph Young (@iamjosephyoung) February 9, 2018 Though MyEtherWallet’s Taylor Monahan and Kosala Hemachandra did not reveal the exact reason for the split at this stage, both said the decision was based on mutual agreement. Taylor, however, convinced most of the team members from MyEtherWallet to join her in building the new MyCrypto.com wallet platform. The official twitter handle of MyEtherWallet has also changed to be the official handle for MyCrypto.com, taking thousands of Twitter followers from MyEtherWallet to MyCrypto.com. Taylor clarified that Kosala (aka “kvhnuke”) will now be the sole owner of MyEtherWallet. She wrote: “Kvhnuke remains in control of the MEW github repository, the MEW domain, the AWS instances, and the MyEtherWallet social media accounts.” Kvhnuke’s response After Taylor’s announcement, Kvhnuke put his side of the story in a Reddit post. Though both of them are telling the same narrative, it seems Kvhnuke did not take the hijacking of MyEtherWallet Twitter account that well. Suggested articles Kvhnuke wrote: “Alas, for reasons I cannot delve into here, our partnership had to end. During the transition yesterday, however, MEW’s Twitter account was switched from @myetherwallet to @mycrypto, and tens of thousands of MEW followers were left scratching their heads. Indeed, the change was unexpected, and I’m still in the process of determining the justification behind the switch, and how this issue will be resolved.” Anyway, Kvhnuke now has to rebuild his MyEtherWallet team, which might not be an easy task at this stage. He also assured that the wallet platform will soon launch some new features, on which Kvhnuke is working. “Furthermore, for those of you wondering where I’ve been or what I’ve been working on the past several months, I’ve been busy doing what I do best—so get ready for some new and exciting products/services in the pipeline,” Kvhnuke added. Behind the curtain – Litigation Although both Taylor and Kosala are saying that the split was mutual, the situation with the popular wallet platform is not so simple, as lawyer Badri Natarajan pointed out there was a dispute between the two co-founder, a common situation in the startup industry. Natarajan says Kosala went to the California courts to file a suit against Taylor. He shared the accrued legal documents in a public drive, according to which, a long dispute occurred between Kosala and Taylor regarding the firm’s financial books. Responsible for development, Kosala asked Taylor to see the books of the company, but Taylor was not comfortable with that, which led to litigation. The documents also revealed a negotiation for Taylor to sell her stake in MyEtherWallet to Kosala for $1 million. The documents also show that the firm was dissolved by Taylor, as of December 29, 2017, without any cooperation from Kosala. Clearly, the situation with MyEhterWallet and MyCrypto.com is more complex than what the co-founders are telling the public. Natarajan raises serious questions: “what company is kvhnuke running now? Who actually owns and operates MEW? It could certainly have been transferred to another company—but has it been?”

https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-arizona-senate-passes-bill-to-allow-tax-payments-in-bitcoinThe Arizona Senate passed a bill on Feb. 8 to allow residents in the state to pay their taxes with cryptocurrencies, public records indicate. The Senate Bill 1091, which intends to enable cryptocurrencies for tax payment, was introduced Jan. 10, 2018 and passed by the Senate Finance Committee by a 4-3 vote on Jan. 24. On Feb. 8, the Senate passed the bill by a 16-13 margin, with one no-vote. The bill has now been sent to Arizona’s House of Representatives. If the bill is adopted, Arizona would become the first state in the U.S. to accept cryptocurrency tax payments by the year of 2020, as stated on the public record. The bill would allow taxpayers of the state to use “a payment gateway, such as Bitcoin, Litecoin or any other cryptocurrency recognized by the department, using electronic peer-to-peer systems.” According to the bill, the Arizona Department of Revenue, upon receiving payments in crypto for “tax and any interest and penalties”, would be obligated to convert the cryptocurrency payments to U.S. dollars within 24 hours. Arizona State Republican Rep. Jeff Weninger, who co-sponsored the bill, said the tax measure intends to turn the state into a center of “blockchain and digital currency technology in the future”. Referring to the tax bill, Weninger told Fox News this week: "It's one of a litany of bills that we're running that is sending a signal to everyone in the United States, and possibly throughout the world, that Arizona is going to be the place to be for blockchain and digital currency technology in the future." In September, 2017, Cointelegraph reported that the municipality of Chiasso, Switzerland will enable its residents to pay taxes in Bitcoin starting January 2018, following the lead of Zug.
