Hi, I am a newbie in coin market.
Currently having started bitcoin investment, I live everyday with confusion and panic..things are changing so fast and unpredictable!
I primarily invest in BTC, but I think BTC market loses its stability and profitability nowadays.
So I came to ponder moving on to another alt-coins those are promising and have high chance to earn me profit.
Anyone invests in alt-coins, share your insights and ideas for struggling newbie
Tnx
Yeah these news regarding 1st August, price speculation, sudden dip in cryptocurrencies marketcap and uncertainties in Bitcoin market can scare anyone not only a newbie. Actually, I want to clear you that nobody is sure regarding Bitcoin price after Segwit and at present bitcoin isn't really profitable. It is just hovering over $2200-$2500 and might decrease after Segwit. But soon everything will recover and will get back fo initial price.
So, here comes the two cases. If you want to invest for a longer time i.e. more than atleast 6 months. Then stay in Bitcoin and hold your private keys. But if you want to trade and earn profit in short term. Then you might try altcoin. But if volatility scares you. Forget about altcoin trading and have patience with bitcoins.
But if you still want to go for altcoin trading. Try with investing in some top 10 coins because might with depreciation in the price of bitcoin, some major altcoins will appreciate because volume will shift to them and can earn you a profit. Even if you encounter loss with these major Altcoins, it wouldn't be much and can recover. Stay away from coins with low volume which are easy target of pumps and dumps as for a start.
