So low market cap is better for investment?

[ronaldo718]

If the supply is low maybe in the future when a lot of people asks for that coin the price will go a lot up

[Nick7815]

Low market cap just means more risk. Yes it can be more gains, but also a big chance of falling to zero.
Look at the high-cap alts, these already have a big price so maybe won't increase 100x, but are also unlikely to fade to nothing. Then look at bitcoin. Even 10x with bitcoin is not likely in short or medium term, but this is offset by the fact that it is the most reliable coin and least likely to collapse. If it collapsed it would take all cryptocoins with it.

absolutely support this opinion. If you don't want to risk losing all of your money you better shoudn't go for the small ones. Investing in cryptos is risky enough if you just go for the bigger currencies

[Iveyalla]

Could not be. Some altcoins that have low marketcap instead end up being trash coin, because it cann't compete again in market. Marketcap cann't be used as a gauge of altcoins where we will invest, but on number of holders in my opinion.

[megalith researcher]

Not necessarily, but chances are higher that you will find 10x to 100x return potential in coins with low position in coinmarketcap, let's say, between position 15 and 50. Below that, the vast majority of coins are projects that you don't want mess with.

Low market capitalization is definitely one of the thing I look for in a coin. Another point worth mentioning is supply side of a coin. If supply is a lot, there may not be room for growth.

Of course the answer is 'it depends'.

If the coin is undervalued because the idea sucks then you are going to lose your money due to lack of interest.

But if the coin is undervalued because people think the idea cannot be implemented, but it ends up moving forward, then the risk will pay off many times over. You will have a very hard time making significant money if a coin gets hundreds of millions in investment.

Come check out Oyster for a relatively undervalued coin which has a real product in the works.

Probably, as we can see, the omesigo is a successful ico project with low market according to the ico price, and some big ico projects with large market cap is not so hot as expected such as the bancor.

Jesus....are people really this dumb in crypto? I scanned the thread and most were just afirming low marketcap is better for investing..wtf.

Marketcap is important to asscertain the current market price.....doesnt mean its a good or bad investment.

Its as dumb as saying a bag of rice is a better investment than gold cause its cheaper.....jesus. cryto retards really are taking over. Time to sell maybe...

[Zigzagkuy]

low marketcap = bigger chance of giving you higher multipliers on your investment but the risk that you lose everything because the project fails/there's no interest in it is rather high.
high marketcap = smaller chance of high multipliers but also small risk of a failed project.

Personally I like to invest in projects with 10-30 mln marketcap.

I agree with you. because the low marketcap makes the risk of failure higher, because the coin that has a low marketcap also means the coin is less in the interest of many people or less popular.

[Muhammad Muneeb]

indeed bro. imagine if a tokens has 18 million of cap and 18 million tokens in supply so the price of token is 1$ there are chances of growth of the marketcap to 200 million and supply is 18 million price of on token will be 11$.

[RonMank]

even with a low market cap, the project still has to be decent. Without a good idea, the market cap is pointless.

[feelideb]

Low market capitalization could mean two thing;
1. The coin is growing and many trader and investors are not in it yet.
2.  The coin is stunted in growth and development. Many traders and investors do not believe that such coin has a future.

This people dont have big money, but good promotion can make em buy huge overpriced scam, like ETH or LTC.

Is ETH supposed to be a scam ?

Anyway, low market cap is just a bigger risk to take but you can get a bigger profit as well.
Higher market cap means it's a more steady and sure investment aiming for long term profit.

High market cap means have shitload of premined coins for sell to "investors"

[crush]

Low market may become SCAM, like SIGT

[Biitcoin]

Low capitalization means only that you will never sell anything) I exaggerate, but there is something in it. Is not it?

[RhinoTrader]

Low market cap doesn't mean it is better investment than those established ones. They have low market for a reason.
low cap is an indicative of low adoption rate. It could mean that the said coin is in few hands and it will be easy to manipulate such coin. But if low cap is as a result of market nature of price, then you may have a very good project and gold mine

[sinduarianto]

it may be true if the opportunities for better investment.

Some people think low market cap means good things, but this is wrong like you say. Only a few low cap projects was on coinmarketcap and they were already boomed during the pumps. I think there is no more of them. If there is, whales would pump instantly. We can't catch up with them.

Contrary to dominant statements in this thread, just today - I see 150-200m marketcapped coins doubled - while 10m marketcapped coins are still bleeding or maximum jump 10%..

So, anything, any scenario is quit realistic in crypto world, you should be ready for anything..
