Topic: $10,000+ To Invest (Read 2913 times)

Hey guys im soon going to get around 10k in coins.  I already have some bitcoin already.


So this 10k would be nonbitcoin.  Im also most likely going to swap some bitcoin into these coins as well.  Does anyone know what percentage of bitcoin should you convert into other coins?  Example say you have 15k in bitcoin.  Is it worth swapping 5k of it for other coins?  I basically want to get 10k in other coins so its either spend 10k with my bank account or swap say 3k or 5k worth of btc for these coins and another 5k cash.  Im willing to spend up to 10k of my all money.


Im thinking right now the coins are


Litecoin
Waves
ETH


Thoughts on this?


Also what about ripple or dash or waves?  Ripple is so cheap right now at 0.28 that well you could buy 5000 of them for around $1500.  Does anyone see a future with ripple?  Now if that 5000 ripple each turns into 100 dollars, well that would be 500k.  If it turns into 1000, thats 5 million dollars.


Also any opinion on mobilego and byteball?  Someone here mentioned these but byteball is really expensive.  Mobilego is pretty cheap at 2 dollars or so.


But it seems like after bitcoin, is ETH the 2nd best?  Then its litecoin?  What about waves?  I dont know why but i feel there is something about waves that might be good etc.


If you had 10k to buy coins and hold... how would you spend the 10k?


Im thinking


3K ETH
4k Litecoin
3K Waves


Or is that just ridiculous with waves.  Because this would be about 750 waves or so approximately.  But is it even worth getting 3k in ETH when its already 300+ dollars each?  Because you would have at most 10 ETH.  With litecoin, it would be a bit less than 100.  


So it seems investing in a coin when a coin is very high price and you dont have that much money is not a good idea right?  I mean if a coin cost 300 and you only have 1000 to invest, that seems like a horrible idea because you only getting to have 3 coins.  But if its coins that are say 2 dollars each, well you going to have 500 of them.

Litecoin and Eth can never be like bitcoin, because bitcoin is the original one, the mother of all altcoins, reason why altcoins in crypto world appeared and bitcoin is the highest price value in terms of digital currency.

Many coins are already overpriced nowadays. I advise you to think twice before investing. Try to check new projects with known team, such as waves

ICOs are the IT right now, many 5x coins out there, just look out for scammers though.

I think this is a too easy way of thinking about things. More specifically, if this would be true this would mean every whale (big investors) would pump their money into btc, which is not happening.

I do however agree that BTC has built the foundation for cryptocurrency and as such is the most stable coin out there. Hence, it has the least risk of completely failing and a good chance it will keep on growing.
For the other altcoins, investing advice is like trading stocks: make sure you have a diversified portfolio, know what you are doing (check the technology, the whitepaper, the developers, the trading volume etc) and take your time to choose wisely. Too many coins have turned out to fail despite big funding or great ideas. You need to have the combination of many elements in order for the coin to become a success.

As stated before, when you want to invest 10 000$, make sure to take your time, learn and then decide on how to invest.

.

At this point, i think its better to just stock up on btcs. I mean trading is still good but with he consistency of btc's movement, ut would probably be more profitable if you just hold on to bitcoin for a while and watch your earnings soar in a few weeks or months

ZEC this month.

Invest in ETH or LTC, going for other coins is risky first of all and you can never guess when they will go back to stone age. so be very sure while picking a coin for investment. Keep the other 50% in BTC mainly because the value of BTC is always fluctuating and a good base for trading.

i suggest you to invest that money 50% in trading and 50% invest in good coins and leave for atleast 1 year

Don't go all-in for only one coin. ICOs are high risk investments so invest <2% of capital for ICOs. On your place, I will hold 30% in Bitcoins, 40% Ethereum and 10% in ZCash. Remaining 20% use for ICOs. This is called portfolio diversification. Accept your losses and don't invest more than you can afford to lose. But remember Ethereum by itself isn't a coin. It's platform which allows you to build coins. But it is still smart to invest.

I agree somewhat with this because ETH is at the highest right now.


But do you guys think buying 10k worth of ETH would be foolish now?


Im also curious but how much ETH would you say getting now would be good enough where you could make a lot of money in the future.  Would you say someone buying say 200 ETH would give them a good chance to make a lot of money?

10000$ is not that big of an amount... If you'd earn 10% per year, which would be quite a nice ROI, you would still earn only $1000/year... Not that big of an amount ey?

10000$ is a very big amount in investing.Its easy to have profit,because it starts in big capital.The more capital the more you earn.If you trade it in btc your money grow fast.This is the latest easy money  now.

$10000 is something a big value to make an investment. In my view I would suggest to go for a diversified investment into few of the coins similarly ETH, NEM, Ripple and waves. You could sell it periodically and get at least a small profit, because these alts have been growing with good market volume.

The price of ETH is not good to invest at this point and the price of litecoin is always disappointing as everyone expect the price to touch an all time high when the price started gaining momentum when the announcement of a segwit activation started and it has gone down considerably after the activation and i think the price stays in this position for a long time,it is good to look out for good ICO to invest your money than to invest in ETH or litecoin.

If you really want to invest in crypto, then diversify between Litecoin, Dogecoin, Ethereum and Monero, as well as bitcoin. Don't focus on one coin too much because at least personally I prefer stability and long term profits over short term bursts of crazy profits.

Assign at least 40% of your portfolio to bitcoin as well, it is the main crypto and has the biggest potential to rise in my opinion.

Make sure you choose a good exchange to trade on though. Poloniex is no longer safe to trade on as there are delays every single day that are seemingly targeting large withdrawals/deposits. Switch to Bittrex, Kraken, Coinbase etc.

For wallet, you need a good secure one as well, otherwise you'll lose all your coins. I suggest using Exodus, it supports all the coins i mentioned above.

Exactly, the bigger the capital the bigger the investment options. It is not recommended to keep all eggs in the one basket because relying on any single option has the highest risk. I am not sure about any altcoin at this moment but would advice OP to go with the most promising one and invest in diversified way as much as possible. I would say picking 10 most promising options and investing $1K each would be a best practice.

well the question here is how long can you wait since the price of those two coins are really surging ups and downs we can't say it will not happen but for sure it will take some time like bitcoin before we didn't think that this price now is really happening almost 3k$ and still moving up maybe if you successfully wait till the huge pump happen that 10k$ would be a million or more after.

If you want to invest 10000+$ then you should invest in a diversified way. Try to buy four to five good altcoins like monero, ethereum and ethereum classic and also buy minimum of one bitcoin.
