Which crypto-currency for investment/trading?

[htsy585]

Safe investment is BTC and ETH, perhaps XRP as well. You wont make any HUGE gains by holding them short term (Like 6 months - 1 year), huge gains like 10x, or maybe even 100x is made investing in low marketcap coins, with real functional products.

Take a look at Blocknet, been in active development since 2014 (So you know they are legit). First project to make a true functional DEX, currently undergoing tons of UI fixes, that will make it even better.
The current trend right now is: KYC, Corrupt Exchanges, Exchange Hacks, Phising, etc..

By investing in a project that builds the literal future - Decentralized trading, I'd say you're putting your money in the right place. Blocknet and it's service nodes running the whole thing will have so much more to offer, but as always, I'd advice you to do your own research

Heard quite a lot about this Blocknet, the new blockchain of Internet with top drawer use cases and features on blockchain bridging, governance and so on. Seems to be a very unique project and I just joined the telegram group to keep up. I hope they will meet the massive hype

but there are also coins that have just finished the ICO / IEO period which is good for long-term investments. For example like Decoin coins (DTEP) which are cheap at the moment, maybe it's good to buy now then hold it for 2 years later.

I dont know why you said that Decoin is good. I see in coinmarketcap the rank of Decoin is 2255 and volume of trading very low. Decoin also does not enter a top exchange. So for me it is very risky to hold Decoin for 2 years or more. The current cheap price does not guarantee that in the future the price will rise again.

So far I have not seen coins from ico or ieo that are worth holding for the long term. The current market price movements are uncertain. So you should be careful about buying coins. Buy coins that are indeed potential and that have been tested.

Maybe he means Dogecoin anyway because I don't see reason why someone will be picking from the least of coins that has no volume and telling the world that it is efficient for trading, is it by mouth, thinking or by practical use? For this reason is why I don’t pay attention that much to people’s opinion because they will only end up misleading you in the market.

People like to just shill their coin just because they have made the wrong choice of investment and now they want to pull other people down along with them, We need to be extra careful as to the way that we really listen to people's opinion so that we don’t get mislead of all these type of people that always shill coin to people without ever telling the truth on any project.

For long term investment i suggest some coin those have bright future and huge potential such as:-
Function X

ENG
GXN
AION
TTC
For trade i'm focusing in different coin because some old coin capable to good profit in trading. SXDT is my 1st choice this coin are huge liquidity. Without any good exchange it’s survive from long time ago. I don't know why team aren’t concerned to list in bigger exchanges.

I'll add more option.
ETH and LTC.
Both of those coins have really good community and their management of their product is really good.
The tranasction speed is very fast and the fee is also worth.

Wow your post are in 2017
To be honest, basically 90% of all the coins are in the bull run if you had just purchase most of the top 200 alts it could make you huge gain

In the 2019, its not the same anymore
You must pick your Alts precisely and judging from the recent trading trend
LINK is by far the strongest token with strong fundamental and good technical now
It is going uptrend where doing cost average on LINK is a pretty easy method for a good Risk reward trading

The best coin for both trading and investing is Bitcoin, because this coin is volatile and very promising for the long term.

Wise choice, at least for newcomer bitcoin can be really suitable for trading or maybe long term investing. Volatile, yes and promising yes. Maybe if want to less risk, because risk will always happen in investment or business. Pick bitcoin can be best choice.

It's better if altcoin still prioritizes Bitcoin as your first choice for investment. because the direction of bitcoin really determines the price of each altcoin and also has proven data that submits that every year there will be an increase that occurs in bitcoin. just buy bitcoin and silence it and then you will get a sizable profit in the next 5 years

i completely relay on bnb and busd binance coin is most stable coin for trading and holding and even the coin pairs also

you must reading the contents of the topic is very useful I think ,OP has invested in bitcoin and the mistake is to sell it too early ,he wants input regarding altcoin I personally propose alt on the market top 10 for a long terms invest
well post April 2017 at the time I think the OP has gained a lot profit because the end of year 2017 the new bull run right

Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Binance ... I see these 3 most valuable coins on the market today, these three coins are very good for long term investment or used as daily/weekly trading.

ETH and LTC is quite good also.
Also those three you mentioned is good for long term investing and for daily trading i think those coins is not really profitable since the movement is quitely passive, but the price can be dive deeper or climb higher in hours but it happened rarely

If you absolutely insist on buying altcoins just go to Coinmarketcap and pick from the top ten. If you insist to other altcoins:

I would to say NANO, it seems to me to be the only rival of LN at the moment. It's feeless, almost instant and it doesn't need miners. I'm using it with Wirex and it works great: I'm able to use NANO through Wirex to pay in every shop that accepts visa cards. Fees are low (2%). It's good for a backup card.

PIVX is other option with privacy, zero knowledge proofs, DAO, POS, solid monetary policy, great team, first of it's kind with many techniques, near instant transfers, stable history, has handled any complications effectively, efficiently, and morally, and more.

Other projects that I find interesting are those that return to users a part of the profits they make, with real use cases. BAT through Brave is example of what I mean.
