$10,000 to spend

[itsv]

I think apart from ethereum and bitcoin you should look into altcoins with master-nodes for instance look into Remme , which is a cross platform password-less authentication protocol which uses ssl certificates for login purposes. Similarly there are few in ico stage like omnitude... You can look into master-nodes trackers like
Masternodes.online to see the full list of currently active nodes with their cost and Roi.

Such kind of portfolio might be very profitable but that's very risky, to me choices are also not good, you should add oax and some btc.

[terrific]

$5000 for XRP? Do you have any reason why it's one of your choice?
I'm good with waves but if you think that you are good with XRP it's your money as well.
However, there's a lot of choice that you can come up with and why not bitcoin instead?

[aragom]

Feels good for me they are potential altcoins seems you will earn double one of the altcoins in this year, why don't you add more two altcoins and divide it that $10,000 into four, maybe you should include ethereum.

Yes, Ethereum, Bitcoin are the two option you need to add them to your portfolio and there are some other altcoin which has potential in the market, in my prediction I am suggesting you include Neo.

eth btc must be in portfolio in 50%

and take other coins in top 100..

dont invet projects that you dont well.

ICO?
What do you think about Blockshipping?
ICO started couple of days ago.

The blockchain based GSCP platform is the world's first freight container registry and the first global platform allowing all players in the shipping industry to perform a wide range of transactions related to the handling of containers.
The GSCP ICO offers a set of token features including a Revenue Sharing Model as well as a Market Maker Fund that allows ICO contributors to sell their coins back to the platform at a floor price until Blockshipping has met certain fixed milestones.

I took them already for bounty campaign because I want to take as more as possible their tokens. Via bounty and token sale.

Seems like really cool project and they have quite good and experienced team.
Looks promising. But check it for yourself.

A really high amount for $ 10,000 can be done by folding it up to 100k, or you can lose it in your hand for 1-2k. Waves and Ripple understand that you have your favorite crypto money, but I think you should add bitcoin, etheraum and a few solid subcoins into these investments.

How do you guys feel about

$5000 in XRP
$5000 in WAVES

Hodling for long term returns

Why just invest in 2 coins? With that amount of money, you can pay for both BTC and ETH. ETH price is recovering, granting you the chance to invest in many many other new ICO's coin

[Clark05]

$10,000 for capital in trading is very big amount and I think you can buy atleast to 5-10 altcoins. I suggest add to your list these longterm like ethereum ,litecoin, dash, monero, and also the coin in your list which are ripple and waves coin  and for sure you will  grow your money.

I am completely overwhelmed with your coin picks, but why? There's a lot of good coin out there that need to be invested, i think there is no problem with waves, its okay to invest there, but i doubt with XRP its more centralized coin. why not chose some others like BTC, ETH GEN, CS and the rest of the good coins. I think divide your invest able money to some others which has a good platform and has a future, sticking to few is not good all the time, as such as they said, put your eggs into different baskets., so it much more better to apply this principle of investing.

Go ahead and make a study, opportunities are already there, it is just need to be studied.

Goodluck

[SimasB]

Make sure you diversify. If one of the projects go bust, another one performing at 50% return will only break even.

[JohnYDillinger]

It’ s awesome to have so much money to invest. I would also choose WAVES

[light22man]

Looks very risky for me to divide money just for 2 coin. Both have issues in the past, XRP almost 90% coins controlled buy developers but still can make a good profit up to 10x. Waves have good time and platform but horrible marketing, potential around 2-5x.

[comander]

Waves is ok choice but why would you want to buy xrp? This coin shouldn't give you any good profit, devs can easily dump it if they want to. I would suggest you to diversify your portfolio with more promising coins that have a lot of space to grow( You should find good projects by yourself in which you will believe) And yes always hold a little bit of BTC in your bags in case of its pump to buy more alts at bottom and then sell them again to BTC  Good luck man

[SalmanMJ9]

I think you should start by researching the market and take your time to get familiar with the different coins out there before you spend them. I think dividing your portfolio between 2 coins equally is a gambling strategy. Always diversify by investing in more coins to minimize the risks. I'd recommend some coins like ($HPB , $NEO , $GEN , $NCASH , $BIX)

[adzino]

Wouldn't be a good idea to invest around $10,000 on just two coins. Better to spread your investment on more coins that are popular. This way you will be spreading out your risks, thus reducing the chances of suffering huge losses.
I would recommend you to invest on XRP though. Would be way better to choose Stellar over ripple.

[donacal]

you should be able to differentiate and buy some stable asset like bitcoin and then someone very speculative. To speculate I recommend news entry daostack and genesis vision

[fia_naila]

My suggestion for $10000 is :
1. xrp : i said no for this coin. I agree if xrp have good fundamental growth but it is so centralised crypto.
2. Waves : i agree if you put decent ammount to waves because the price istill relatively under value.
3. Ethereum : i will suggest you to buy more ethereum because it is not break $600 and possibly can goes up more.
4. Essentia : the best ico for next month and the product really worked good.

[biletskiy]

If I may ask...
- How did you come up with these two coins? 
- How long did you investigate crypto in general before deciding on investing? 
- What were your source of information?

I have the same question. As for me, there are too many better altcoins to invest 10 thousand in them. First of all, deal at least with ten cryptocurrencies. Secondly, pay attention and NEO, Komodo and Ethlend

[godfredmanu]

Great investment idea. Waves and XRP are all great coins to invest for a long term. The waves will likely be more in value than XRP within a period of 6 months. Waves seems to be volatile than XRP and hence , the value of waves moves higher than XRP.

[Geoff999]

Both are pretty good coins in their own way,

Ripple most people who are die hard fans of crypo dislike as its not really decentralised, that said it has a large user base for the Ripple network (Not necessarily the XRP token however)

Waves is a great coin, it should really be allot higher than it is in the chart.

I hold both of these coins amongst my portfolio and have seen great returns over the last year and a bit.
