We indeed need to diversify our portfolio in crypto so that we don't get hung up on just one crypto. We know that there is a lot of cryptos that can be invested in and that there are many good prospects. the thing that must be considered in diversifying our portfolio is to focus on target assets and also understand the possible risks that exist, what I mean here is to choose crypto that is appropriate and also has good prospects so that we can manage it optimally. but here we have to be more careful in choosing crypto because it will have an impact on our assets in the future.
Diversifying is the key not to be bankrupt early. As you have no idea which asset will do good in the market, your losses will be minimized if your assets are scattered in various markets. But in doing so, you also need to be cautious which coins are worth to invest, because with thousands of alts that we have, only small percentage can survive in this market. And that means, most of them will not be valuable in the near future. You also need to be updated with their progress so you can sell off before it declines its value.
Diversification really helps to reduce the risks, but do not forget that over time in a crypto, any coins, except Bitcoin and ETH sooner or later begin to fall in price and yield the place to others.
For example, Litecoin, Monero, Bitcoin Cash 3 or 4 years ago were in the top ten coins in crypto but now they are somewhere in the third ten.
This is not counting other less well-known coins that fell even lower. I don't think that it depends from their progress or something. It's like as in surfing.
Good coins "catch a wave" and grow greatly in price, and those who do not have time to do this disappears on the next bear market.
