Share your favorite long-term coins and why

ZEC chart is quite active, it's a good place to trade if you want to make profit with short term trading but holding ZEC only worth when the price was low and we are in bullrun.

I agree with you, ZEC wasn't really attractive investment until last year it was shilled by prominent crypto twitters. But right now there are many better coin with real PMF that brings in real revenue which also doesn't have risk of being force delisted due to regulation and AML enforcement.

Due to ZEC’s fairly high volatility, it is an attractive investment asset specifically in the short and medium term. In other words, as I’ve noted before, this altcoin is more suited for speculation than for long-term investing. At the very least, this is because there are no guarantees that ZEC won’t plummet to rock bottom again, especially if, as you pointed out, risks of regulatory pressure suddenly arise and, consequently, the risk of delisting from major exchanges.

November did not start well for crypto. The market dropped, Bitcoin fell below 100k for the first time since June, and SOL and BGB also moved down with everything else. The only strong spot right now seems to be privacy coins like ZEC, which are still holding up and doing well.

Even so, I am staying positive. I believe this is just a phase and the market will recover. Bitcoin is still above the important 98k level, so I am still building my bags. I already have my plan in place. I will join giveaways, enter trading club challenges that are not too hard, keep improving my trading bots, and continue collecting coins I believe in for the long run like ZEC, TAO, SOL, BGB, and ZEN.

It may feel tough right now, but times like these can be good chances to prepare for the next move up. How are you dealing with this dip?

I trust ETH, I know that it failed last time around because it did not get all the hype, and it had to share it with other stuff, but this time I have a trust that next bull run we could see it go up.

Because it has a better blockchain than bitcoin, and it is better and bigger than all the rest. So when people realize they are not going to make more money from bitcoin, and it peaks, ETH will be the one to increase the easiest. Making a 10x return form bitcoin is not possible, that requires 600k even right now, but making it with ETH is a possibility.

The problem with investing in ETH is that, as an asset, it’s very slow to gain momentum, and it doesn’t seem all that easy to pump it up. However, that doesn’t mean ETH won’t increase many times over in the long term from its current price.
As for the idea that a 10x increase relative to BTC is impossible, I wouldn’t be so sure about that. In my opinion, in the long term, BTC could very well reach $600k or even $1 million, which is more than a 10x increase. The only question is how long it might take.
