You've said it yourself, you've been holding shitcoins.
Shitcoins are to be sold in the altseason, and quality projects are holdable for the longer period

Most of these coins has a good prospects at the initial stage which prompted many investors to buy them and hodl however the developers might have later abandoned it thus turning them into shit coins, I will rather blamed the developers for the lack of progress of the project.
Many hunters or investors has one or more of these shitcoins in their wallet afer-all its not big deal it is an investment that goes wrong having took a risk of course some thses coin also pump 10x or more on many occasions..

Just because you have seen that other people had gained too much on their altcoin portfolio doesnt mean that you would be earning the same if you do held some alts.
It will be varying on what coins you've been holding and this is where personal selection would really be different to each other since not all people would
have the same view or perception into those projects that they do encounter on.It just turns out that other peoples selection is a good one compared to yours
and thats why they do make out some nasty profits on just simply holding because of that.So i can say that it is a bit needing some mix of luck
into these kind of circumstances.

That is a great problem in this market, people see that other people got lucky when they invested in altcoins and they try to replicate the success of those investors not understanding that you cannot replicate luck at all no matter what strategy you use, I have no problems admitting that investing in certain altcoins over the years could have produced better profits than what we see in bitcoin.

But the biggest difference is that the results in bitcoin are predictable, we can tell that it's price is going to go up during the next years and decades, you do not need a crystal ball for it but when it comes to the market of altcoins you actually need it and unfortunately no one has it.

See, lately i have experience similar situation but in my case i sold too quickly and now i am in great regret for selling too early, in fact, between the span of January to mid March, 3 of the project i hodl rise so high in price which made me to be a bit sad, kicking myself for not selling too early,
i should already know those project will do well, it was just a matter of time and patience but instead i did the opposite Sad

sometimes you feel you got it figure out and suddenly things will take a different turn and left you hanging.

really annoying when things happened against you, thinking that you fully handled the situation and you arecorrect with your decisions, but in reality, you just missed things out. What you think is best backfire against you, don't have any other choice but just to regret everything and keep blaming yourself inside thinking that there's a much better outcome if you only wait for a little bit longer.

Just the same, nothing you can do now treat things positively and learn from it to avoid making the same mistake over and over.

I personally do not like to hold coins or tokens long term. I don't think it's right to hold tokens for more than 3-6 months. Because if you hold a token long term, most tokens no longer have value. None of the tokens I've held so far have gone up, but gone down.

Nec Recisa Recedit

most of ICO and coins launched during ICO mania have been just... a waste of time after 3 years.
plus most of these bounties can't be accessible since you will spend much much more just for making a transaction (we need ETH 2.0 to see another pump....)

I made an experiment taking in account some "suggested coins" from this topic
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/the-next-100x-1000x-coin-2106360 "The next 100x or 1000x coin",
(where people trying to guess/suggest the coin that could receive a big pump during end of 2017 early 2018)

At December 2017, it means after 3 years, I get following results:
13,18% Reported a positive evaluation.
10.83% Reported a 0 (total loss)
the others just negative results (prices go down).

Holding was never an easy task, time may come where you end up getting tempted on selling your holdings cause you are seeing that the value is getting better but the thought that in the near future, it has a potential to go even higher stops you. You should really pay much attention on holding popular coins cause you might end up wasting your time on those unpopular ones since some of them might end up being a dead coin or keep on going down with no hopes of rising up. Be smart and wise always upon deciding on what to do with your holdings or else you might miss the chance of getting high profits.

I believe that HOLD is still the preferred form for maximum profit.

it must be applicable for the coins that have a bright future but when you are holding the garbage coins and hold is not a good decision that you can take it. I see someone already made a thread that said if he was holding some legit coins and shitcoins. he was trying to compare the performance that created by both and then shitcoin will always become shitcoin.
it's never worth to be hodl.

It's a good lesson learned here mate, you are been advised by those who can't even tell the difference between shitcoins and real crypto projects, do your own research and learn a little from others, some don't even know what they are doing so they try dragging others along, coinmarketcap rated coins based on volume and liquidity, that shows which crypto coin is well adopted, I'd say start from there

You own the pen

If you did all you can regarding your altcoins, you don't need to worry about it too much since you did all your best to choose those coins to hold from back then. It's just how it goes and the least you can do about it is move on with your life. there's something that you need to know about those altcoins and their usage if you missed that fundamental information, you will miss the best coins to hold that year. right now all you can do is learn from your old mistake and do the necessary things if you want to hold some altcoins again.

Good for you mate that you are holding coins way back 2018. On my part I holding since 2017 but I'm lucky enough that year as I already been rewarded tokens but I just converted it to fiats as I really needed money. Thus, much better to hold some coins as a coins which is very popular in which can be benefit a great profit in the future and I hope I can hold some coins by having extra money to buy.

Yeah, very true @poster, one thing is that people should be specific when they tell you to hold coins long term for future profit cus we all know that not every coin or project will succeed, and we that are still very small traders tend to have the natural urge to ignore major coins which we have the mindset that they are already too expensive to buy, we go for the cheaper less popular ones with the hope that by the time they become known like the major coins, we will be in a very huge profit, but then, somehow, it sometimes ends in disappointment as not all of this coins go the way we predict they would go, some fall out on the way and projects gets abandoned, some are just too slow and takes years upon years to get noticed by a small number of people.

If you accumulate top alt-coins back then you would have gain so much profit right now.
Indeed the effort of holding a crypto would be wasted if you don't know what to hold.
You shouldn't just hold them but also know if they are worth it not all of crypto would bloom so better be careful what you would hold.

well, holding it doesn't mean not selling it. It's quite weird if you just hold the coins without targeting anything. however, if you use these altcoins for their function because you need them, that will be the better thing. however, I also still hold my coins today. however, if I needed money, and the price offered was high enough, I might sell some. however, we need a goal for that. just be a wise investor.

In my opinion, there is no obvious hold and will certainly win for all types of altcoins. You have to be sure for the best, how to understand if it gets stuck in growth and is driven by a lever to trust. Even ETH, I sold my beef for $ 150 at the end of 2018 and look back at my mistake now. Therefore, I believe that HOLD is still the preferred form for maximum profit.

no all types of altcoins. some are in fact dead.
do not hold the tokens you know aren't going to b valuable. you will know that from the beginning when you look at the purpose of the project. if it's just about a project that will work for a particular community where only a few will benefit then it's not going to have good value. why buy it in the first place. buy the ones that you think will have future potentials.

Be wise with your investment, and you will make a profit in the future. If you can not select the coin that has the potential to increase in the future, you will not make a profit, even for a small profit. I also held some coins from 2018, and the value now increases higher following with bitcoin price because that is what I will get if I sell it in bitcoin. Holding can be a waste if you always check on the price, but if the bull trend comes, you can check the price repeatedly to see if your coin can increase higher or it still stays at the current price.

There are just those coins that are worth hodling because not everybody dumps.
And there are just those coins that would be for quick profits that's why you should sell them immediately while the price is still on a... worth the sales.
Consider those bounty hunters that would seemingly dump all the coins just right after the coins got listed in the exchange.

I have also experienced that kind of unfortunate results mate, from holding with useless coins and tokens mostly from ICO's way back in 2018. But that was a wake-up call for me because everyone can learn from his mistakes thats why I act accordingly to make it right and my first move is to avoid those useless coins and tokens and I make sure that I was holding only the top-ranking cryptocurrencies. but still, I was willing to gamble and participate in some Launchpad activity, particularly in Binance.
