ETH and BTC deserves the biggest space in our crypto portfolio

[Silberman]

It looks like selling your crypto for money when they are profitable is more safer than holding them for long, my point is only very few coins are worth holding for many years, if you still doubt about this go on coinmarketcap and look at most coins that came into this world in 2018 many of them have no volume again, the shocking one to me is gowithmi, a project that my elder brother praised so much at the time but today it's volume is not up to 50k, many projects will face same fate, be smart

This has been discussed at length many times, if you are planning to become a trader then as long as you have a solid money management strategy then you can invest in a great deal of coins and see if your strategy is profitable when trading them, however if your intent is to become an investor and hold your coins for the long term then there is only one coin in which you can invest and that is bitcoin, even ethereum which is a good coin does not deserve to be in the same level as bitcoin as ethereum could at some point be replaced by a better coin, while the chances this happens to bitcoin are incredibly low.

The coinmarketcap historical page is proof of this. https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/ :) You can see everything that happened since 2013. Thus, you can have an idea about what may happen next. :) Except for Bitcoin and Ethereum, I don't see any permanent coins (BNB can be added to this shortlist). It is necessary to use IDO and IEO platforms to earn money. In order not to lose money, it is necessary to be a Bitcoin and Ethereum holder. Good luck to everybody.

That depends on the development progress that already made. I should remind you that even the big token or coin can go down with the goes of time. Did you remember with the masternode coin and yeah this kind of coin have so many coins in the crypto ecosystem and with only a few years already passed and almost all of masternode coins already wiped out from the market as new tokens and coins have been taken the majority of top spots in the CMC.
I remember that golden days of masternode coin and this time it's just only the name that newbies very unfamiliar with it. BTC and ETH are totally good coins but less room to growth means we will get less
I know that not so many projects can success and this is how crypto is playing today. When you didn't get hype and you will be end

I do try to keep as much of my portfolio as possible in these two as well. However with the increasing amount of transaction fee for both (coming back to btc now thanks to bech32) its really a hard thing to use them. I try to buy and invest into things that I would be willing to use, not things that I would simply invest just because I believe they will go up. If I do not want to use it, then I do not want to invest into it. BTC-ETH could be the two that are exceptions, because they are number one and two, but thats it, they do not have the biggest pie anymore for me. While others went up higher, I just let them become bigger than these two, and did not rearrange my situation.

If you want to hold it for a long period, only bitcoin should you give a big place in your portfolio while other coins you can sell when the price increases drastically. Likewise with Ethereum or BNB or other potential coins because after those coins reach the highest price, bitcoin will experience a correction and we have seen what happens to bitcoin. The bitcoin price has fallen by half from its last high, while the altcoin price has also fallen. Many of those altcoins have fallen drastically to their lowest prices.

Don't expect too much on new projects because not many of those new projects can improve drastically like the old coins already on the market. Only a few new projects can rise high and survive in the market. If you invest in a new project, don't spend too much money and instead allocate that money to bitcoins.

If I were you, I would store everything in bitcoins.
I understand $LINK and $ADA do have good qualities as the top altcoins on coinmarketcap.
However, the market looks different from what we saw from the previous year, the market seems to make bitcoin have a high price development.
at 1400 euros that's enough to keep a few bitcoins at least until we know when the altcoin season returns. will definitely make us believe in altcoins like $LINK or $ADA and others.

So far I have been monitoring some of the coins on https://coinmarketcap.com I see that altcoins are already very much traded in the crypto market. I myself have also concluded that every altcoin is not profitable if it is held for too long because altcoins in general will have fantastic prices when they are first launched and over time the price of these coins will decrease in price because investors have moved to coins that are new and still popular in the crypto world.
That's why we can't get profits continuously because every day and every month there will be new projects that are more popular so that the old coins will be left behind.

There are many coins that have brought us profits from 2018 to now, BTC and ETH are always my priority for owning crypto, and it also ensures a certain risk in this market. I have seen many trends and the success of many projects, but in the case of BTC and ETH, it is always something to start with in this market.

I think so too. coins that we get whose fundamentals are still unclear or do not have a history, it is better to sell them immediately when they make a profit.
When compared to bitcoin and ethereum of course they are more powerful, keeping them is really worth it.
it's just that I have a little confusion, if we only have a little capital to trade, will it be profitable to keep bitcoins for a long time when the bitcoin price is very high now?
this is what makes me think at least even small altcoins need to be taken into account to be able to generate and increase capital.

BTC and ETH have been around for a long time in the crypto space so people who still believe in the two coins still have a chance to make huge profits this year too because if you ever bought both at the lowest price point during the correction, then right now. I've been able to sell it for a very good profit. So obviously BTC and ETH are two coins that are very often profitable for everyone in the crypto space.

Currently, many old projects have been delivered by investors, especially taem who manage projects because they cannot compete with new projects that are currently developing so fast that many old projects are lost on the exchange because trading volumes have slumped, so to invest in old projects just choose potential coins so as not to experience losses when the project is no longer in run, And we should know that crypto competition is getting higher.

[aylabadia05]

BTC and ETH are indeed very worthy to always be on the list of our crypto portfolio. These two types of crypto will always be safe even if they are held for a long time.
You can compare how much they are worth now (2022) with what you saw in 2018.
Only BTC and ETH have been able to survive despite the many new coins coming into the crypto space.

everyone is smart enough to know this. that's why altcoins released today are hard to develop. Today's investors/traders rely more on big coins like ethereum, bnb, or bitcoin to fill their portfolios. and if you asked everyone today what coins they're holding, probably almost all of them would be bitcoin and ethereum or some other big altcoin.

[Kunnu]

There is no doubt that BTC and ETH both are much capable to give a decent amount of profit if we could able to buy these coins on right time but expecting good profit with these two coins requires huge investment in them which is not affordable for many people that's why they're not able to add BTC and ETH in their portfolio so they have only one option left which is investing in quality and affordable altcoins like Matic, Cardano, XLM etc.

[Farma]

bitcoin and ethereum are indeed very good coins to hold, short or long term. Personally, I think that these two coins are the most potential coins to own, and have the least risk compared to the two coins, therefore, I feel that if the most space in the portfolio is filled by bitcoin and ethereum it
very good. Despite that, other popular altcoins are also pretty good to hold on to, although not quite as good as the two coins.
However, many people think that other altcoins are investments that can be used as a stepping stone to increase the value of assets quickly. it's not wrong, it's just that the risk could be greater. other than that, why people still choose other altcoins because they are cheap. however, if you want to try a bigger risk, other altcoins can be an option in our portfolio, but for long-term investments, bitcoin and ethereum are highly recommended to have more amounts than others.

[Wysi]

The problem is that many investors specially newbies thought that bitcoin and ethereum are not a good investment because the returns is too slow and you have to be a long term investors.

As compare to many coins that has a lot of promises, so they investment their money on them thinking that they will be instant millionaires. But majority of them didn't even reach have of their dreams because the coins they have invested are either pure hype or simply just a scam.

As far as I know most of them go with altcoins only to become super rich in a real quick time which logically doesn't work, yes there are many who doesn't go with btc and eth as the price is already in high. Long-term holders doesn't even care if the price goes up or down as they already plan and invest but this doesn't work with the trader's as they go most of the time with short trades but on the technical analysis.

I don't agree with that.
Because not all coins can be averaged only for the short term.
Those that last at least more than a year are good enough to invest in.
Apart from ethereum and bitcoin there are also other good coins like tron, Sonala, BNB, matic.
In my opinion, making bitcoin and ethereum just 2 coins that are good for the long term is less effective.
when we make these two coins long term, when the price is too high we are too late.
There are still coins on coinmarketcap growing well, it's just that they have a long development and lack of community support.
Their current price is still cheap, I believe they are at least in the top 100 of coinmarketcap.

[lenovop-70]

Two called is my biggest portfolio!
And I think, especially for this year BTC and ETH will give me profit compared to if I keep it in Alts. Look at the weather right now mate, war and world economic inequality are brewing, and I know that the investment climate is down, so BTC and ETH are yearly investments that make sense to me.

[ivankoh]

I totally agree, Bitcoin is like the “special” king of the market - the place where every bull run trend originates… meanwhile, let's not forget the king of DEFi and the most important component to the coin altcoin direction - ETH.  I'm also adding BNB to the long term now… Some people usually analyze altcoin bull run positions for layer2 but I guess they'll know what really matters most.

[kentrolla]

We have learnt this from a lot of experience and wrong decisions we have taken, Bitcoin and ETH should be the largest reserve in our portfolio since we can bank on these coins anytime but we also need to consider other top altcoins as well like BNB, SOL and ADA to name a few. When it comes to new project we cannot blame all the projects because sometimes it's the dev teams fault or sometimes they don't sustain due to low volume exchange they choose for listing and there was a coin named Policypal which had really good roadmap and it's ICO was sold-out in just 38 seconds but it couldn't survive because they choose low volume and bot infested exchanges.
