Been in this game since 2012, and if there's ONE thing I've learned over the past few years, it's that you BEAT this market, by predicting the future.
I own 10+ BTC, and a bunch of ETH for the long term - Most people will probably disagree with me, but the right move right now is to move into altcoins, which has been bleeding for the past 18 months+
Decentralization is one of the MOST discussed topics as of lately, and it's really not surprising with all these centralized exchange hacks as we've see lately.
The next big thing is Decentralized Exchanges , the thing is though, that 90% of the "DEX's" out there is FAKE, enforcing KYC, accounts, personal data, etc. A real DEX can't enforce KYC, since it's owned by nobody.
With adoption of the blockchain worldwide, governments will try to control everything, which is why a LOT of people is speculating in this (Myself included). I predict that once people move on to DEX's and we get some proper liquidity, you can
make a KILLING by running a node on a DEX. .
Blocknet, is a good example of a
real decentralized exchange, that if you own a service node (5000 coins required) you'll be able to profit from their DEX. More over, their Xrouter services (basically solving the Oracle problem, like Chainlink) will be another source of income on top of it all, not to mention staking rewards.

I've been profitting pretty well from ICO´s in 2017, but don't believe we'll see that kind of hype again, I could be wrong though, we'll see
