[Discussion] Best Altcoins Portfolio 2024 | sponsored by BC.Game

[Halab]

Hi there,

For the last years, I've been organizing this little contest. First in the french section, now here since 2022.
The idea is to make a small fictitious portfolio on January 1st 2024 and to see on December 31 2024 who has performed the best.
Suppose that you have 1000$ and you want to make a small portfolio with 4 altcoins. Which ones do you choose and in what proportion ?

Restrictions :
You can not take BTC (or wrapped BTC etc...).
You are not allowed to put more than 50% of your portfolio in one altcoin.
You must put at least 5% of your portfolio in each altcoin.
You can only take one stable coin (or none).
Take at least one altcoin beyond the 100th position on Coingecko.
Warning : before choosing an alt, check that on Coingecko, there is a tab Historical data (ex : Bitcoin). If on 01/01/2024, there is no price for your token, it is like playing with 3 Alts.

Explanation :
As the reference "buy" price, I will take the opening price reported by Coingecko in the historical data of 01/01/2024.
And the closing price of 31/12/2024 will be used as reference "sale" price.
The one who will see his or her fictitious portfolio progress the most in terms of value will be declared the big winner.
Whoever bets on the best performing altcoin at the end of 2024 will receive a 100$ bonus on the value of his final portfolio.
Whoever bets on the lowest performing altcoin at the end of 2024 will receive a 100$ penalty on the value of his final portfolio.

Who can participate ?
Anyone as long as you have reached the Member rank.
You must have received 5 merits between the last 120 days and just before this post.
You must not have any legitimate negative feedback from a DT member (I will decide whether or not a feedback is legitimate).
No multi-accounts, thank you.
Registration end date: 30/12/2023 11:59pm (Paris time). Registration is now closed.  

And what we can win ?
There will be 3 winners :
1st : 0.0025 BTC + 0.0004 BTC ^*
2nd : 0.0010 BTC + 0.0002 BTC ^*
3rd : 0.0005 BTC + 0.0001 BTC <sup>*

*</sup> 5+2 mBTC is generously offered by bc.game.

Please note that if by luck (or misfortune, it depends ), I'am on the podium, the rewards will not be shifted and the 4th will receive nothing.
Once the contest is over and the ranking is clear (I'll give you a few days to check if everything is OK, I can make mistakes), winners will be contacted by PM to ask for their BTC addresses and I'll send them their rewards. If there is no answer from a winner within 7 days, I will contact the 4th, then the 5th, etc... Rewards will be sent at the same time. Of course, your account should not be banned at the end of the contest. This contest lasts one year, be aware of this.

The aim of this contest is to have a little fun (and to confirm that daddy BTC is still strong). The rewards are just there to spice things up a bit, like a bet between friends. In previous years, some people have added extra rewards. I'm not asking for anything, but if someone wants to make the rewards bigger, he is free to do so. But let's be clear: he's committed to pay the winners, otherwise his Trust page is likely to get colored. Under no circumstances I will claim the extra rewards, as I don't want to be responsible for other people's money (I could be hacked or hit by a bus tomorrow, etc...).


Please register in this form (replace the information between '<...>') (and make sure that the total is 100%) :

Code:

[table]
[tr][td]<Alt 1>[/td][td]<proportion %>[/td][td]<link on Coingecko>[/td][td]<rank on Coingecko>[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]<Alt 2>[/td][td]<proportion %>[/td][td]<link on Coingecko>[/td][td]<rank on Coingecko>[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]<Alt 3>[/td][td]<proportion %>[/td][td]<link on Coingecko>[/td][td]<rank on Coingecko>[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]<Alt 4>[/td][td]<proportion %>[/td][td]<link on Coingecko>[/td][td]<rank on Coingecko>[/td][/tr]
[/table]

Good luck to all.
May the halving be with us .

You must have received 5 merits between the last 120 days and just before this post.

Question about this. Am I still qualified if my merit will be less than 5 on registration end date which is Dec. 31 2023.

Yes, you're just good. What counts is the date of the first post of this topic and the last 120 days preceding it.

[LoyceV]

Two years ago (2022), I won by picking stable coins before the bear market hit. Now, with the Bitcoin halving next year, I'm not going to do that.

This year (2023), I started with this:

29. LoyceV: $1000.00
Tether Price (499.93691945 USDT): $500.00
Monero Price (2.71518292 XMR): $400.00
Dogecoin Price (711.30830865 DOGE): $50.00
TryHards Price (22347.62420683 TRY): $50.00

And now I'm here (ignore the small change in amount of coins):

39. LoyceV: $1046.04
Tether Price (500.00000000 USDT): $499.79
Monero Price (2.71499355 XMR): $463.18
Dogecoin Price (710.85330831 DOGE): $67.36
TryHards Price (22253.57503683 TRY): $15.71

Not very impressive, which is why I'm not into trading altcoins
The last one went as expected:

I've added TryHards just because it sounds cool. And because it's seriously far down the list. Obviously I don't have very high hopes for this one, so don't take this as investment advice.

1. For 2024, I have high hopes for privacy coin Monero now that theymos is going to ban advertising mixers, so that's my first and largest pick.

2. I still have hopes for this:

After thinking about it for a while, I added Doge, because the damn thing bubbles up once in a while. Who knows, it might do it again.

So I'll add Doge again.

3. My third pick is going to be Stellar Lumens, because it also seems to bubble up every 4-ish years. Although extrapolating the graph, that's going to happen in 2025. In that case I'll just add it again the year after.

4. That leaves the shittiest of all shitcoins, down even further than the Top 100. I'll just pick #101, which I've never seen before.

To summarize, this is my 2024 portfolio:

Monero	50%	https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/monero	26

Well, it was fun participating last year, so here I am again.  I'm no more alt-coin literate than I was last year, and if anything I'm even less so.  I'm pleasantly surprised that I'm not in the negative for 2023, because I do own a bit of all non-stable coins I listed last year, lol.

Here're my choices for 2024:

Monero because I find it a very useful coin and it's been a very stable store of value.
Ripple because I think with ETFs becoming more mainstream and Ripple's marketing strategy, more brick and mortar banks may actually start using it for what it's intended.
Dogecoin because I still think it's likely to be incorporated into X/Twitter which I imagine would cause it to pump.
Ronin because it's ranked below 100, it seems to have done well last year, I'm alt-coin illiterate, and I like the name.

For this contest I'm leaning more on a meme and mascot flavor which yielded some great results in the second part of 2023, and this momentum might very well persist throughout 2024; 3 out of 4 of these selections might easily sink 90% or more too, so definitely NFA...

I know [banned mixer] sponsors the BTCT Community Awards, but I will ask Theymos for confirmation.

Moreover, if this thread is moved to the “Speculation” section, as a result it will become a discussion thread, then another 10 mBTC will be added to the prize pool (this can be done since after January 1 no one will publish their predictions anymore). I believe that in this case, as an exception, you can even extend the application period by a week or two, since the increased prize fund should attract more people. But the OP has to decide that for himself.

I can try to move this topic to Bitcoin Forum > Alternate cryptocurrencies > Speculation (Altcoins), but not to Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Economics > Speculation. Because only Altcoins will be discussed there, not BTC. Would that suit you?
Or I can quickly create a new topic in Alts > Speculation that will serve as discussion for the contest. Would that suit you too ?

As for extending registration, I can't see myself changing the rules just a few days before the end. It wouldn't be fair to those who registered first.

I also ask you to provide me with a Bitcoin address to send sponsorship funds.

Would you mind keeping the money until the end of the contest ?

That's what I meant.

As for extending registration, I can't see myself changing the rules just a few days before the end. It wouldn't be fair to those who registered first.

You are OP. And this has nothing to do with changing the rules (and this is absolutely not comparable with what happened in the last competition).

There are 52 weeks in a year, and a few weeks won't change anything. Secondly, you should understand why I’m asking... any sponsor giving sponsorship money expects that the thread with the brand name will catch the eyes of users as often as possible. But when 20 people participate in the competition, 5 of whom are likely to discuss their predictions, then the number of comments in the thread will be insignificant, as a result the thread will not appear too often in the eyes of users.

Therefore, when I talked about extending the competition, I meant that we would be able to get more participants who would one way or another leave comments in this thread (which is what the sponsor is actually interested in).

Would you mind keeping the money until the end of the contest ?

My friend, I have a full set of military uniform in my garage, including body armor, etc. (no joke). So I would prefer that the sponsorship money be kept by you, since I have no idea what will happen to me in a year.

If you are comfortable with such uncertainty, then I don’t mind keeping the sponsorship money with me.

As I have the Staff tag on my profile.
So I can't accept the partnership with [banned mixer] for this contest. But thanks for the offer.

Cool phrase from Star Wars 

How about 5 mBTC from BC.Game? It's not too much, but at least it's something.

Thread name + move the thread to the mentioned section.

[paid2]

@Halab, if you want (and trust me enough), I can act as an escrow for free (and will offer the tx fees from my pocket when transfering funds )
So you won't be responsible for the funds this year, and icopress would have one less thing to manage?

[icopress]

Halab, if you want sponsorship funds to be spent in Pink Paradise then you should rely on paid2.

After you stop accepting applications, I'll take a look at how many people we have and maybe I can increase the prize fund a little more (but that's not for sure).

12 hours to go before the end of registration.

Thanks for the reminder. As every other year, I almost forgot it was one day before the end of the year

Just like last year, it will be 100% gambling on my side. Actually, besides Monero, I don't even know what the other three are supposed to do. Barely opened their website. Didn't read.
So, if I don't end up last, it means that anyone investing in alts is loosing their time and should just start picking randomly.

2024 is here. Good luck to everyone.
The 2nd and 3rd post have been edited to give info. Make sure there are no errors, especially in the 3rd post.

This topic has been moved here to discuss the contest and its alts.

Happy new year @Halab

Don't worry if you see a number after your coin (like ONE2 instead of ONE), cointracking is adding them after a fork or a duplicate.
@Halab, I think some numbers are wrong for @Vispilio, he is at ~1500 usd right now
Please ping me if something is wrong!

[Halab]

@Halab, I think some numbers are wrong for @Vispilio, he is at ~1500 usd right now
Please ping me if something is wrong!

There are profiles where I can see the alts in cointracking (LoyceV, libert19 or yours), but others are empty (Vispilio, xSkylarx or mine for example). But maybe you didn't fill them all.
I just tested with current prices (@17h10) and my formulas give me 1012$ for Vispilio.

Thank you!

Indeed, I forgot to update some profiles after putting on all the numbers.
Now everything should be fine.

I have still some issues with the links for Vispilio, and Woodie, but I am working on it
All links are working fine now. Still a strange total amount for Vispilio, but as long as you have the right number, it's fine. I guess Cointracking does not take the good rate for BLACK. Everything else is ok.

[LoyceV]

@Halab: How about adding a few random entries? Pick a number between 1 and 5000, get the coin. Pick a number between 1 and 50, get the percentage. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the random entries get really high, and some get really low in the final results.

Lol, that's a great suggestion.  It's not like my picks were any less random than this suggestion.  To make it more reflective of our own selections, pick three random numbers from 1 to 100, then another from 101 to 5000 to select the coins.

[Halab]

Ok for fun, I made a random portfolio, but balanced.
I took 2 alts between 1 and 100. And 2 alts between 101 and 3922 (CG doesn't go any further in the ranking). And I put 25% in each alt.

I took a site drawing random numbers and I got: 6 - 54 and 482 - 1255, which gives :

XRP(XRP)	25	407,46076968
Aave(AAVE)	25	2,29420942
RocketX exchange(RVF)	25	301,11956253

[FinneysTrueVision]

While looking through other user's portfolios to see if anybody was performing worse than me I came across a mistake with @God bless u's ROSE holdings. Its price hasn't dropped significantly in the past day for it to only be 0.4% of his portfolio. $200 of Oasis Network (ROSE) would have been 1,453.741931732 ROSE at the opening price of $0.137576 on January 1.

[LoyceV]

I've setup my scraper based on Halab's data. There's already a huge profit and losses. I didn't verify the data, and did a lot of manual copying. So please check your own data for any mistakes.

I think this is the last year I update my scraper. Coingecko is annoying to deal with, it's blocking more and more scraping, and uses different API names for some of the coins than it uses on it's website. It was a lot more work than I expected. I've also mutilated 2 usernames: no "space" and no "dots".

[Halab]

While looking through other user's portfolios to see if anybody was performing worse than me I came across a mistake with @God bless u's ROSE holdings. Its price hasn't dropped significantly in the past day for it to only be 0.4% of his portfolio. $200 of Oasis Network (ROSE) would have been 1,453.741931732 ROSE at the opening price of $0.137576 on January 1.

Yes, you're right.
It's been corrected and the correct value for Oasis Network is :
Oasis Network (ROSE)         20         1453,741932

For today, God bless u's portfolio value is ~1054.53$.

Paid2 and LoyceV, if you can take this into account for the next days.

Paid2 and LoyceV, if you can take this into account for the next days.

Updated!

It's been corrected and the correct value for Oasis Network is :

Column 26 in csv2.txt is broken; the name is ',Maniac' instead of 'mp3.Maniac' and all values are just ',Maniac'.  

Besides that (hardcoded a fixed $1000.00 value for that column) [edit: switched to csv.txt] here is the new live updated graph:


And the full participant portfolio list graphic:


@Halab feel free to include these in OP!

Edit: @LoyceV, what's the difference between your two csv files? I don't remember why I chose csv2.txt last year, but this time around my script seems to work nicely with csv.txt and the values actually seem to align more with your daily portfolio overview (everyone in the green for now).

Thanks, it's fixed.

The first file has a fixed order, csv2.txt is sorted by final balance (the last user was manually edited, this will be fixed in the next update). That makes the legend much easier to read.

What a timing! I just manually added sorting by final balance to my code that uses csv.txt.
Anyhow, I guess it's fine now, either way.

Last night, my data scraping resulted in some failures again. The API is clearly not up for it, and I don't really want to keep checking this daily for the rest of the year. If it keeps failing, I'll have to give up.
I'm re-scraping it now.

I'm re-scraping it now.

I just noticed and re-ran my scripts manually, too. How about running them a few times e.g. at 00:00, 01:00, 02:00? Or did none of the runs go through smoothly & you had to 'stitch' results manually? In that case we'd have to look into a different API.

Might find some time to do that myself, too, in case you're too busy at the moment.

How about running them a few times e.g. at 00:00, 01:00, 02:00?

I ran the whole script again. Sometimes the API just blocks me, despite having a 16 seconds delay between scraping.

How about running it multiple times until none of the returned $ values are 0? I guess it's not that important for the daily standings / graphics whether it's the 00:00 standing or 01:00, since what really counts will only be the final results, right.

That's easy to add indeed. I've changed it like this: 6 seconds between API-requests, but if the API gives me an empty output, I'll wait 1 minute and try again. Let's see if this works tomorrow.

Update: this may fail once one of the coins gets delisted, but it worked last night. The volatility in less than a week is amazing:

I like how in the first few days, everything was kind of doing the same thing, but between January 4 and 8, all the altcoin portfolios dipped down, meanwhile Bitcoin slowly went up. It's a tiny data point in the grand scheme of things, but it's a nice anecdote to show the difference between Bitcoin and 'everything else'.

[n0nce]

Almost 1 month passed and just 10 portfolios are outperforming Bitcoin. I see this as an absolute win! Still good to see that LoyceV's and my portfolio, heavy on XMR, are holding up not too badly. I hope to see Monero gain some traction in the future; even though not necessarily as an investment.

[cryptofrka]

Nice to see that my cat shitcoins are pushing me towards victory.

Who needs Bitcoin when you have Mochi

[tokeweed]

^  Lol at Base?  Yeah it's funny that Mochi and Toshi are the top coins in that chain for some time now and the more serious projects like Aero and Scale are doing really badly.    It just shows how immature the space is right now.

But the thing tho is memecoins are going to give you the biggest gains if you play it right.  Like if you missed going in right before the pump then it's prolly better not to chase as these things could dump and you might get shaken out of the trade.

The thing to do for 2024 and 2025 if you wanna be in the trenches are airdrops and memecoins.

I need Elon meta to get back in and pump GROK from under 50m market cap to over a billion mc.  That would prolly help me secure the top spot.  Lol.  Never mind TIA, TAO and APT.  They're good alts for sure but they're run won't be as good as GROK if Elon Musk starts low key shilling memecoins for the lulz again.

FIL

I actually have a decent amount of this coin that I've been holding since early 2022. The flat has been going on for more than 700 days, and only recently have positive changes appeared. In 2021, the peak value was about $200 (with a circulation three times less than today’s). But I’m not greedy at all, and without hesitation I’ll sell everything I have at a price of 15 dollars (the mark seems quite achievable).

Those who have taken everything except privacy coins are pretty much in the green

I put 40% of my ducats into XMR, so yeah...  In USD value it didn't drop much, but with BTC surging it sure looks like it's performing poorly.  I've noticed that's a pattern with XMR, however; When Bitcoin is climbing XMR will drop, and when Bitcoin is dropping XMR will climb.  It makes perfect sense if you consider those who are using it for privacy will want to wash their BTC gains.

What's up with Doge?

Good question.  I guess it's popular enough with the "cryptocurrency" crowd that it will follow along with Bitcoin's lead.  I'm pleased to see XRP is climbing too.  I'm still holding a small IRL bag that's in the red, but it's getting close to matching my USD investment at this point.

[LoyceV]

In USD value it didn't drop much, but with BTC surging it sure looks like it's performing poorly.

This applies to many altcoins. And the tricky part is it may even look like altcoins are gaining against Bitcoin when Bitcoin's market cap drops, but that's ignoring the share of stable coins and brand new hyped altcoins. Coinmarketcap.com used to show a graph of the altcoin against both USD and Bitcoin, but nowadays the default is only USD. That makes the long-term drop against Bitoin less obvious.

[tokeweed]

I think the winner will be the guy who picks the right memecoin and the right AI coin.  Memecoins always out perform the whole market in small spurts during the start or the end of a major BTC move...  Sometimes both.  And 'AI on blockchain' is a big narrative coming as the bull run develops.

cryptofrka chose well with a couple of memecoins that's dominating in Base, an AI coin that isn't even close its all time high yet and he picked SEI...  An L1 that's playing with the best big narrative in 'parallel EVM and pipelining'.  That narrative will be huge on 2025 with the release of Monad.

Indeed, I think that 15 or 20 usd is not difficult to imagine in the (not so far) future for FIL. I think you are right to be confident if such prices allow you to be in the green.
It's already touched 10 (despite a small drop today).

With memecoins in this competition it's all about how they'll perform when you need them to.
They'll underperform in most cases and then have crazy runs, if you get lucky with the timing you'll be out of anybody's reach.

I do believe that TOSHI and MOCHI will have monster runs in this bull run and have also invested some money in both of them.

Bitcoin dominance is slowly increasing, while new altcoins are continuously being created. So I'd expect Bitcoin to do better than the average altcoin.

CX had a contract exploit so they migrated to a new contract with equivalent MCAP which got airdropped to all holders, coingecko should update to the new version soon, the previous exploited token is now worthless.

Black was a project initiated by official Stark team members, they mysteriously abandoned it, it happens but Stark team in general lost a lot of credibility with the greater crypto community.

The other 2 are purely community and meme driven love projects, will play out through the year...

Cat memes going strong even in huge corrections

You should have seen all the 'what an idiot' looks I got when my non-investment friends asked me what to invest in and I told them cat tokens on Base.

[tokeweed]

^  Lol and it helps that they're in Base.  Seems like the rotation is now from Solana going to Base.  Does that mean there's gonna be a BASE token airdrop?  Are airdrop farmers smelling something..?  I'm not really sure but I think Base has no choice but to issue one.

And one thing I've noticed lately is that these memecoins are a leading indicator on which chain the money rotates to next.

And one thing I've noticed lately is that these memecoins are a leading indicator on which chain the money rotates to next. 

They were initially saying that there won't be a token.
They have to be extra careful considering that they are a registered company in the USA - and issuing tokens is a tricky thing.

I see memecoins more and more as the bullish/bearish community indicator. The bigger ones of course - the lowcaps will constantly keep popping up somewhere.

[tokeweed]

^  Yeah, Arbitrum said the same thing too.  Yet here we are.  And here's some alpha that I've learned from hunting all these airdrops...  When their docs say that they eventually want to 'decentralize' their chain, protocol, project or whatever, that usually means they're going to issue a token and later have some sort of staking or governance structure.

And Coinbase could always set up an autonomous foundation based in some country that's crypto friendly to be overseer of the chain's development.  So be on the look out for that.  If they really do set it up then most likely there'll be an airdrop.
