Seeking input on plan for a first investment

[Kulllianll]

Why not, a good portfolio to start with. I advise adding LTC and ETC

[mikyadel]

all are great But they are too good that they won't get you profit , i suggest leaving ETH and invest in some smaller coins like 3-4 that has a potential
 5-10 x

hi guys, im new to icos but i realized that most of the times i cannot buy as much tokens as i want.
I read about this mkk pool https://discordapp.com/invite/FHKZGGX yesterday, they organize kind of a pools for pre-sales?
Has anyone heard of them? Any experience? Are they trustworthy?"
  BTC

[rapalha]

Have you heard of Marinecoín?  They have some potential.  I was skeptical at first but have watched and seen that the are indeed real with a real ico currently.  Can’t believe the amount of .MTC. that you can earn ... amazing.  I look for long term value in new ico projects.  Can the chain create something useful to make the project self sustaining?  .MTC. is focused on the iot industry geared toward machine to machine transactions.  I think that will be big soon so can see some real value in the chain.  They have zero fees so many micro transactions can be performed economically for the iot industry.  Check it out for yourself here at their site marineco.ín/ico

On a first investment you better put 40% on bitcoin and then the rest you can split it to many alt like your list. And also choose old coin with the team still in development like verge coin or feather. Some time coin like that can spike and got pump hard.

Hi Folks -

I have no crypto holdings but have been thinking for a while about getting in.  I've read just a little and watched the prices fluctuate for a couple months but don't know that much.

From watching what the markets seem to believe in, I am thinking of investing

40% ETH
40% NEO
10% VEN
5% DGD
5% WTC

and using Binance as my exchange to buy.  I am thinking that there may be another dip before there is the next dramatic rise, and I am waiting for that  (or maybe I am just mad at myself that I didn't jump in on Feb 5th, when I had the impulse to). 

Any suggestions about coins, diversification, exchange choice, timing?

Also, what I'd really like to do is invest in something like a reliable and trustworthy ETF/mutual fund, where I provide capital and some smart people who live and breathe this stuff 24/7 do the investing and re-balancing.  I've seen a few things that kind of look like a 100% crypto mixed managed fund, but they're all not exactly that, or else they're already closed, or the SEC has made them illegal for now.   Any suggestions with this, too?

Thank you.

Good to see that you have split your investment in to several parts for a safe and secured trading. The coins you have selected is almost good and a potential one, but my advise will be invest 25% of your total investment splitting in the same way you have mentioned. First investment should be always made what you are afford to lose in case you didn't earn profit.

First of all, regarding another dump before the next pump, you are indeed correct. There was a sudden pump of shitcoins (coins with small volume and no adoption or use case). When such pumps happen in mid of bear cycle, that shows that distribution is going to end and massacre is going to start. So watch the market for next 7-8 days before making any type of new investment.

Regarding your choice of coinS, I would say instead of 40-40 for ETH and NEO, go for

• 20 - ETH
• 20 - BTC
• 10 - WTC
• 10 - VEN
• 20 - NEO
• 10 - DGD
• 10 - POWR

[Poink]

From Binance, I hold the following coins/tokens (biggest to smallest)...
VEN, ICX, NEO, ONT, QTUM, RPX, REQ, WAN

Since I hold them myself, you should know I believe in these coins.  Combined these 8 coins represent 69.29% of my portfolio.  The 1st 4 represents 54.88%

[Naman1111]

For first time investment it is best to divide the whole into 50% - strong  40%- medium 10% - risky type of coins.
BTC,ETH, NEO,ONT WAN, ICX are all strong – If I were u would buy WAN and ICX more – more room to grow
Dragon,Zilliqa,Ubiq,EOS,AST,KNC buy them for 40% allocation
10% risky- go for spankchain, MONKEY, and all other staking coins. SOON you too my friend will be on the Moon.

[BettingTips]

I think you should spend 50% for ETH and 50% left for NEO only . I think these two coins are the best coin in your list.

It's good when you're not going to spend all your money to invest in only one coin but too much is also not good ). I think NEO and ETH are enough for you, ETH is the best altcoin atm and NEO is being supported by China government, it's China ETH and has very good potential in the future

[Rudzaki]

Each of us has a diversified portfolio and each coin has its own forecast for the future. Therefore, until there is no stabilization, you can say anything, but the general growth of the market is coming soon, which means that we will have merry races.

[Suslived]

Seeing your picks from early Febuary 2018 i congratulate you on your picks. You have picked winners and i want to reaffirm that you did well picking Ethereum.
My opinion is that you don't listen to whatever people are saying that you should drop ETH from your portfolio. ETH is the future and ETH is the best investment vehicle. Don't sell just hodl!

[Moiyah]

You can also consider ADA and MONERO in your input plan. They have both good platforms which some speculations said that they are the good investments in this year 2018.

These two altcoins is a good hodling and guaranteed that this are not shitcoins. Monero is also one of the best as it offered low fees with fast transactions.

[NaXxow]

I agree, you missed BTC, furthermore BTC is the thing you need to track the progress of crypto currency. though it may not rise like x10 or x100, but definitely it will give you an edge for tracking when to buy or when to sell.

[thedarksun]

For me you should first get bigger knowledge and try with bounty campaigns for this. But if you really want invest now in something, the best option will be the most popular coins. In my opinion you should try with ethereum, neo or deeponion. These coins are the safest for me

[scalvo98]

Yes, if you want an advice, dont buy DGV, it is a waste of time and you are allocating a huge percentage of your portfolio to it.

Put your money in real projects, like Waltonchain, i see that you want to invest in that one anyways.

The same as powerledger, and wepower.

[mahoni2100]

this is the two coin you are looking for Neo and eth are ideal for investing in one of the rare vehicles always makes the investor happy.

[Milamol]

It seems to me that 50%(25%ETH&25%NEO) of the portfolio can be allocated to strong assets. On other 35-40% risky assets. 10-15% should be in fiat as a reserve.

[Leah38]

Good day! If you invested on ETH last month then congratulations coz your investment just doubled. Waiting for 1000$ per ETH again. Alts value rise with the rise of the value of BTC so if you bought altcoins last month you've already gained profit.

Seems like i've seen this EXACT same post here in the forums previously except with a different post title. I know because i believe i've commented on this portfolio before.

Flagging this for reference until i find the other post. Spamming is not tolerated in these forums.
