What is best PoS coin to invest into right now?

[Abiky]

I have seen many PoS coins decline in value over time, making your stakes less profitable than ever.

However, even though this happens, there are a very few coins that prove to become worth to hold for the long term.

Nevertheless, I would like to know which PoS would be best to invest into these days, according to market movement. I'm always on the look for good PoS coins to put my money into, and make my profits grow for the long term.

You should firstly tell us which proof-of-stake coins you have already tried and which did not work for you. I personally prefer WAVES and Qora. Also NEM what is actually not a POS but POI.

I think that PoS coins are going to have hard times ahead, especially if Bitcoin keeps climbing in price. I think coins with better chances in the market will be those using DAG algorithm, such as Byteball and Iota.

And LEO went down ~36% in the last 30 days. And it's LEO......


This is why I don't get staking. Time in crypto flies at the speed of light. Coins generally move more in price within a single day than the usual annual stake reward.

You would have to go out of your way to find similarly high risk low reward "investments".

i think NXT is an option. the price is so low and there is a roadmap for "NXT2".
Roadmap:

and today i found this. i am not sure if it is legit or not.

BNP Paribas is testing multi-currency transfers between their subsidiaries in Germany, Netherlands and the UK based on #NXT blockchain tech

Looks great. I might have a look at this one further, to invest some BTC and see how my profits would grow with it. As long as the coin remains, at the same price than initially brought, or goes even higher then it should be fine to hold onto and grow your profit.

Nice. I have found NEM and Qora worth looking into for staking sometime in the future. Waves is a good coin with cool features, but price hasn't moved that much these days.

As for the PoS coins that I have tried, they are: Diamond, Magi, Hyper, Tekcoin, OKCash, and LiteDoge. Since I dont leave my PC on at most times, usually prefer to stick to PoS coins that don't need their wallet to be opened always like Tekcoin which is every 30 days. 

I think that PoS coins are going to have hard times ahead, especially if Bitcoin keeps climbing in price. I think coins with better chances in the market will be those using DAG algorithm, such as Byteball and Iota.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. It may seem so, as the more Bitcoin rises in price, the more they tend to decline in value. Speaking of Byteball, it has a very nice concept and it might become a pretty good coin worth investing into for the long term.

Still, I hope that the concept of Proof of Stake would be improved once ETH releases Casper and migrates to the new PoS system.

Remember for buy ether at the price was being lower... They will be migrating into PoS and it seems they were showing effects.

I'm not lost my train with ether.
Although the others were saying it dead, dying and other blablabla...

Just silent and take some of your profit.   

[addias]

I am betting on Waves as a long term investment.

[deadsilent]

You should go for top altcoins in marketplaces. They are good for holding in long term. Dogecoin, litecoin, waves, xmr, eth are good coins. You should go for them. Its really hard to trust other coins these days. Some are just scams. It better to buy reliable coin since you are going for long term trading.

If you are going long term, that rules out any coins with high stake awards of course. User adoption can't keep up with the increase in coins.
With low stake awards your gamble is that the value of the coin will increase, and the stake is a bonus. That's a lot safer long term strategy than high stake awards imo.

Stake should be anywhere from 1% (long term) to 5% (medium term)

My favourite is BitBay of course (1% stake). Very comitted and competent dev, The most advanced wallet in crypto with marketplace, smart contracts, trustless escrow, pay to mail, and more. A lot more in the pipeline. Market cap increased from $156 000 to 1 mil dollars during 2016, and holding like a king during this btc rally!

[care2yak]

I gave up my eth a month ago, although I still think it's a promising altcoin. Am looking forward to how it'll do after shifting to PoS

[milly6]

IMHO, Cosmic

Price is low (yobit only atm but that could easily change) and its under 1,000,000 coins total (not for long but will remain ~1mil for a long time)

Yeah. Even though ETH has suffered from many attacks such as The DAO hack and DDoS attacks, I have the feeling that this new year of 2017 it will emerge stronger than ever.

It would be a good time to buy cheap ETH, to hold them for the future once it migrates to PoS, although I'm not sure if it might decline in value with this change, as the majority of PoS coins are very inexpensive when compared to PoW ones.

But perhaps I'm wrong, and we could see this year full of surprises for both ETH and ETC to emerge as powerful platforms for smart contracts. Just sharing my thoughts.

I stake pesobit, bitbean, putin, 1337, CJ, XDEII. bitbean and 1337 have 1-2 satoshi, but the game is not in btc.

What does that cosmic coin have to offer than we haven't seen a million times already? You can't expect any investor to buy a coin only because it has a relatively small supply. Sure that may be better for a quick and dump, but some of us want something that is solid and you can hold at least mid term. And even for quick pump and dumps you need something of substance unless you want to wait and see if you win the whale lottery (that is, holding some random shitcoin that gets pumped by whales out of nowhere).

While these are really great coins to stake, they are very inexpensive and most them turn to decline in value over time, leaving you with less BTC at the time of selling that specific PoS coin.

But still, if it wasn't for that, you could profit a lot from staking these coins, especially 1337 which has a high stake rate.

I hold 1337 and XDE II, hoping to get a nice return in a couple of years from now. Just sharing my thoughts.
