I thought ark would be a great investment a few months ago, have been holding ever since. Does not seem to be. There have been way bigger gains on other coins like kore, dynamic, shift, blitzcash, synergy, spreadcoin, siberien chevrons, all coins I never thought to invest in. Maybe ark is just waiting for it's day. It doesn't seems right that all these coins with no real potential are twice the price of ark. Geocoin is even doing better. Maybe I should just dump ark and invest in something with no potential?
Ahah you're a funny boy. Where is ark in this chart:
https://icostats.com/roi-since-icoThe price increased a lot, a yet, as mentioned, they didn't deliver anything big yet! So let's be optimism for the future.
Of course you can invest in shitty coin that will be pump from day to day like monaCoin or whatever but it is more risky!
Agreed. ARK has been one of the best performers of the ICO coins - $73 million cap from a $1 million ICO. From that chart, only Storj, Stratis, Spectrecoin and Antshares are better performers. And then I'd cross off Spectrecoin (too small of a cap; possibly easy to manipulate), and Storj/Antshares (they have been around a long time). Only Stratis has had better performance than ARK in such a short time.
There is going to be pretty big exposure for ARK - they are sponsoring fintech events and even partnering with Ledger to have hardware wallet support. If you read up on ARK, its improvements vs. Lisk are nontrivial. It's trying to have more Bitcoin-like features, so it's easier to integrate into existing ecosystems (e.g BIP32 addresses instead of Lisk addresses allowed the hardware wallet integration).
IMO, it can easily reach or surpass Lisk's market cap in the near future. If you bought when I mentioned the trend reversal, you'd already be up 15-20% or more
As for the coins you mention, I only would recommend Shift, primarily because they have a fairly small market cap and have had constant development focusing on a niche (IPFS web hosting). I would not recommend Blitzcash because there's not much independent development; I got in at 3k sats and already sold at 80k. The wallet has not been functioning well and there's not been much development apart from the Stratis sidechain stuff (which is what's holding the price). Other coins I have no idea.
