Let us discuss the reality of holding altcoins.

[Odusko]

This thread is aimed at collecting individual perspectives concerning various altcoins and what our feelings are, because over the time I have come across cryptocurrency investors bragging about their altcoins like coins from way back 2023-2025 and then now 2026, those that believe that they are going to become $millions profits through this various coins in they portfolio.
Let me ask are we still expecting the bigger price to come?
Or we should give up the expectation considering the reality pf altcoins right now?

Altcoin doesn't work like bitcoin that you can hold and expect gain, maybe some work like that but majority are purely hype. The altcoins people show off back in the days might only have 10% of its former all time high valuation. Altcoin market always shift.
Compare the 2021 bullrun cycle to 2025 bullrun cycle, the altcoin position by rank have almost completely changed and old altcoins are nowhere to be seen. Taking that into consideration, the same thing might play out and most altcoins will have close to zero value by the next bullrun.

I have already given that expectation and I thought that it was just a hype that I've rode and didn't make it. It just made me more losses and regret that instead of buying those altcoins, it should have been on bitcoin instead which the profit was more than those potential profits that I've assumed will come but it never arrived. Like from the period of 2021 to 2025, many considered good ones made a lot of us losses.

People switched to gold and precious metal, that was the altcoin season right there, it's like retailers decided to do something different this time, but I can't deny the fact that some altcoins did ran incredibly well, more than Bitcoin, and all these top altcoins...it's just getting harder to figure out which one is going to perform very well next, mind you the next season might be different, now that everyone feels tired around altcoins, something they hoped for in 2025 could happen next while every guide is down already.

Of course mate, that's the magnet of attraction from the altcoins market which has year to year gained consistent patronage from crypto investors. But figuring out to identify which altcoin among thousands of shitocoins that would perform well before even thinking of tremendously well is where the gambling come about. The chances are extremely low and that's why holding altcoin for long is just too risky to try when it can be done with bitcoin.
