Add some solana also. It performed very well in 2024 and this year also I expect it to continue this trend.

Usually, when a coin makes it on the exchange, it's already there regarding its.. Biggest time to gain profit from it.
If we are talking about the old coins - then surely, the best are already listed out there. Litecoin is a great choice, in my opinion.

While seeking for recommendations isn't all that wrong, it's only tough in the case of regrets and blames. Nobody is aware of the performance of most altcoins - things could change terribly in a market change or shift. Still, he could have more opportunities to choose and do his research on. He'd got some nice picks like Polygon, and Litecoin, they seem to have some potentials on the long term.

I'd also add that exchanges are better places to find out projects to look into, as they've got all the listed coins.

If you have a decent amount of money then 80% Bitcoin & 20% XRP is fine but if you don’t then it’s too much money in safe plays you have to take more risk with less money.

Some shitcoins can give you massive returns , many will do a lot better than Bitcoin in the next 6 months and they are more common then you think.

AI will be massive this bull run, wont be difficult to find a few AI coins that will do really well I’d rather invest in them over Bitcoin right now.

If I were to be the ops, my portfolio for 2025 is like 80% BTC and then 20% a single coin which is XRP which is doing greatly well right now in the market and I think giving that coin a chance this year could make a good portfolio for me going forwards, unlike in the previous years when I get myself confused with multiple coins on my portfolio and all ended me on a bad loses, so this year I have learn a lot of lessons, and I wont repeat same mistake in 2025, but from what the ops posted his list of choice coins portfolio is filled with shitcoins.

You need to always make your decision yourself and don't seek for some kind opinion that could increase your chances of making profits in the market. Some of these coins you have listed are good to hold based on your opinion but I think some of them have lost hype and many investors are not seeking to buy them just like the buying momentum was before. Maybe anyone that wants to buy should do that on a long term interest not something of short intervals.

Altcoins investment is something you need to be scrupulous about for us to make money from it while selecting the good ones from the ones that could be unprofitable in a long run. Every investor need to know what they are getting some skills about crypto investment and trading even though it's just a shallow knowledge.

Then choose SOL and LTC and be a happy hodler of them.
Some choose one, two, or ten - it's an individual preference of how many coins to hold.
And we didn't see the biggest rise of alts yet..

like other people mentioned, it lacks BTC, i mean when BTC is doing 4x from the bottom while LTC almost doing nothing I think it makes more sense to hold some BTC.
but at the end of the day if you have conviction that this coin can go up then feel free to hold it, after all, the financial decision is yours to make, I agree with people who said not to trust stranger on judging your portfolio because people can be pretty biased.

Nothing to add from my point, I think that’s enough because I will not advise anyone to go all in at once forgetting other investment choice. The only coin I’m familiar with in terms of research is litecoin and the rest seems unknown, how sure will this coin be beneficial during the bullish season if no you should go for a trusted coin with good potential and we’ve seen several altcoins do well just make your research and go for the best.

There are quite a lot of choices and they have to be sorted so that only two remain, because currently if I look at the average price, altcoins are already in an upward position following the bitcoin trend so they have to move quickly if it looks profitable to avoid the risk of the price falling past the buying point, I prefer altcoins that move following the direction of bitcoin

I for one would go full on BTC mostly, and only a fraction of the funds would go to the new projects.
Because they are either: a) risky; b) have unlocks like that 
The most stable option is under everybody's nose.

I agree with what my friends here are saying, why don't you put Bitcoin in your portfolio?
Of course, it has a higher level of security. If i were you and had a relatively large amount of money, i would split 60% to Bitcoin but back to you, if you only have a relatively small capital you have to take a bigger risk, this i agree with @JamesDaniel90.

And one more thing, have you researched the token you decided to enter into your portfolio?
Because i see Supra there, as far as i know Supra unlock tokens every month for the airdrop community for approximately 30 months, of course this causes investor fear to buy the token, which has an impact on the difficulty of the price to rise.

LTC all the way.
 

I wouldnt say sooo..

Usually peoples love to go with their own research because it's much better and beneficial for them, but many are now having mentors or analyst which are giving their views on social media and having good reputation due to their hard work, but we need to be careful.

Even though I am also not agreed with OP coins/tokens because these are not well enough famous in crypto market, but maybe he has done his work before investment I don't like them as well with my best option is always bitcoin with few other coins which are having good future and use case in the future.

Another group which love to stay with marketcap and love to take their small profit from top coins with usually this profit is not big but still enough for them to keep things on good level.

Well I have not heard of those coins you have Fantom, Polygon, MultiverseX, Supra. And I did look at them and they do have a small marketcap instead of the other coins in the top marketcap.

And they are not even in the top of the 100 coins for marketcap. I do like that you are hodling Litecoin but I do think you can use some other tokes in there. Ethereum, XRP and meme coin Doge you can add to it.

A good point JamesDaniel90.

I think some folks consider their overall portfolio as having various sections, like safe, volatile and speculative or whatever, so that maybe without delving into the picking of specific instances one could on seeing a portfolio leaning hard toward stability suggest adding a percentage allocation for other types/categories.

Like, how much of one's portfolio would be enough to allocate to your kind of category for someone who has ten times as much income to pour into ongoing investing? Maybe still just one times as much as your entire scale could suffice, if they feel that a lifestyle such as yours is a sufficient baseline or a plentiful gain on top of their current lifestyle or something like that? Maybe for such folk only ten percent of their portfolio allocated toward your type of picks would be fine?

As you scale down the starting capital or starting ongoing investment budget there likely comes a point where it starts to look more like work than like investing in that finding what to do with your pennies becomes more of an impact / chore / investment of time than gains of mere pennies seem to justify.

There is an old saying though "look after the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves".

Once upon a time the old penny-stocks players learned things that led to them transitioning into the "actual" stock-market to buy up entire companies to break them down into holding corps (of the real estate for example) versus earnings corps, selling off the real holdings of the earners and having them rent from the holding corps going forward, for example.

So maybe allocating a portion or section for things in which your small contribution could make a real difference could prove a fruitful idea for anyone who views learning as desirable rather than as an unfortunate chore and effort coming between themselves and the earnings they are hoping to achieve...

If nothing else one might learn how much difference being able to actually make a difference might make, so to speak... Ready for when one is some kind of "whale".

EDIT: That caused my mind to invent a silly joke... Q: What did Oppenheimer say when he heard about compound interest? A: "I am become whale, destroyer of economies!"

It all depends how much money you start with when investing.

If you are someone with a lot of money who can invest an a few thousand each month then yes Bitcoin is worth it.

But if you are someone average with not much money then you need to take more risk.

What is the point of investing in Bitcoin with little money just to see a 1.5x or 2x return this year, it is not going to make a significant change to your life.

Those of us with little or average money should want to be making 5x, 10x or even 20x or more this year and you will only do that taking a risk in altcoins.

Yes some may turn out to be bad investments but you only need one altcoin to give you a really good return to make it worth it.

Yeah, it isn't everything. We even survive and some do well before it even invented. We did by just having a gold investment, real estate, and others, but now that we have a Bitcoin, I think it is only an added opportunity to us, so why not just grab it? Bitcoin is almost $100k again and many are speculating that it may only reached $150k this year which may not really be 2x of its price. Guess that is because Bitcoin's value is already heavy now and this is why some just choose a cheaper option. Top 100 altcoins are still a lot, I mean some positions may not be permanent and can subject to change without a prior notice. Maybe consider lower than it? To cut some risk.

I can't recommend you to buy any coin, I can only suggest you to see the potential of various crypto assets by looking at the upcoming narrative, one of it is a coin or token related to the AI ​​narrative, I think this narrative will be something this year, just like last year. For reference, you can see on Dune about tokens or coins with an AI narrative: - Dune - Ai

However, you need to consider holding Bitcoin and if possible around 60% of your assets should be in Bitcoin, because I think it is better to invest more in Bitcoin than altcoins, fundamentally Bitcoin is safer.

Maybe if we are going to accumulate our portfolios in crypto assets, it would be a good idea to base our investments on the top 10 layer1&2, top 10 meme coins, top 10 AI agent coins, and yes 10 under Depin coins category and Top 10 cryptocurrencies if we don't want to waste our crypto capital.

This is just in line with my opinion as a sound investment method as investors in this field of the crypto space that we are in.

only invest in popular coins that you understand, don't be influenced by what people tell you, do research and understand the coins you invest in, because altcoins have risks and only you can understand how your risk tolerance is on the types of coins. and also as a suggestion, I feel that only focus on a few coins, no need for too many, focus your money on coins that you feel have potential, while for new coins it is better to avoid them or you can invest but with less money.

Maybe the apparent confusion can be resolved by differentiating investment portfolio from savings?

To folk whose savings are in fiat, as often happens with people whose earnings/income is fiat, bitcoin is in their minds part of their investment portfolio;

whereas to at least some folk whose earnings/income is bitcoin, bitcoin is simply their savings as in what they haven't yet spent of their earnings/income at any given moment, except maybe such bitcoin as is out on some exchange or other as buy-side for various alts invested in to act as support for those alts and to earn from the rises and dips in the BTC/ALT pairs...

In other words maybe bitcoin is simply money; fiat is foreign currency to convert some into when visiting that foreign country and a very poor investment; and alts are gambling chips or investments...

Yes, bitcoin is not the only investment on the market, nor is it the only coin worth investing in. But it is the safest coin in the market so we should have bitcoin in our portfolio, although it may not give us big returns like altcoins but it will ensure the safety of our portfolio. But it all depends on each person's taste and risk tolerance and remember that the higher the return, the higher the risk.
If you are willing to take risks and would rather gamble than invest, then there is nothing wrong with not adding bitcoin to your portfolio. But this is very risky so don't give altcoin investment advice indiscriminately to others.

Its easy to recommend Bitcoin and Ethereum but in the first place, why are both of these two top coins in the market not in your portfolio, especially now that we are in a bull run and Trump is openly supporting Bitcoin?
I cannot say what you have is a good portfolio unless you have the proven coins or tokens there but not seeing Bitcoin and Ethereum or even Solana, you should consider these top and proven coins so you can say that you have a good portfolio.

This was the exact question I wanted to ask as I saw the list of token he is holding initially, why is Bitcoin not there?
We all know how disappointing most of this alt and meme can be most times and it's extremely risky to invest your all in them, because they falls more than they rise, so on my own perspective, I believe that a good portfolio should consist of like 90% of Bitcoin, then risking like 10% of your capital on three alt or meme coin like pepe, optimism and sui.
This is what a perfect portfolio looks too me, not this jargons that you listed down here because it looks like you don't work for the money you used on spending on this nonsense you called asset.
Among all this asset listed down here, how much research have you done on them for you to risk so much on them? The earlier you understand that Bitcoin is the real deal, the better for your finances.

look for the most functions if I see phantom will also increase its performance like sui and sol and just wait for time. Also see many who use their app when transacting.

If you want to stay calm even though the decline always occurs yes in BTC. whatever conditions will occur BTC's graph movement if viewed annually always goes up.

You have some solid choices there! Polygon and Fantom are good for long term investment with their strong ecosystems and consistent development. Litecoin is also a relatively safe investment, especially with its halving cycle. MultiverseX and Supra are more niche, but if you believe in their potential, I think they are worth the risk. If I had to add, I would say look at Chainlink (LINK) for oracle solutions, and maybe something in the AI ​​or Layer 2 space like Optimism (OP). Diversifying across trends makes your portfolio more balanced.

Bitcoin, 2x return max this bull run.
Solana, pumped so much already.
Never heard of hype.

You have to take risks in the peak year of bull run, they only come round every 4 years. Altcoins pump 20x to 100x you need to try and find a few of them.

No point just investing in Bitcoin now with average amount of money to invest, you’re not going to change your life investing in Bitcoin right now but you can with altcoins.

You have to take risk, and if it pays off then you can cash out your profits and you will have more money to invest in safer plays like Solana and Bitcoin.

Polygon/Matic over the past 1 year there has been no increase at all, this is an altcoin that is not growing rapidly unlike other altcoins.

Fantom, already switched to Sonic.
Litecoin? I don't think this altcoin is very good.
MultiverseX? This is a shitcoin?
Supra - don't think it has potential.

Recommendations for you?
1. Bitcoin
2. Solana
3. Hype.

Yep. Some would just say the coins that they would like others to be invested in, so it's all individual beliefs / tips, but no solid plan to make an X thing.
All the opinions can be gathered, analyzed, and only then - used in practice by some degree.

It's better for you to do your own research op, rather than asking other communities here, because you can blame them if what they recommend to you is wrong.
So, it's better for us to just do our own research like you already did op.

This is what almost all crypto enthusiasts are doing right now as we face this bull season, so the success we hope for depends on the altcoins we decide to buy and
hold whether long or short-term holdings.

No Bitcoin? Why? no Solana too; all the coins and tokens you've had are all good if you want to add more better to do your own research, as every investor has their own expectation on the coin/token that they add to their portfolio; some want a long-term hodl for maximum profit, and some want quick profit. Its better to do your own research because you will be educated along the way as you go from one coin to another.
And some unknown guy here might recommend you a coin where he is a part of the team, and their intention is to scam gullible investors.

In my experience market-making yields me higher profits than HODLing, so BiTCoin comes into it via being the buy-side of my trading-pairs of at least some alts.

That way I not only gain more of the alt faster but also get bitcoin profits too.

In fact it is usually the bitcoin rather than the alt that I from time to time buy fiat with to pay such expenses bills etc as require fiat.


-MarkM-

The same usual money protocol that has been heavily fudded in the last 48hrs? No thanks. I learnt my fair share of lessons about stablecoin projects that offer "yield" where the yield source is not verified. Maybe the token will do well if they manage to beat off these fuds but I'm not going to bet on it yet.

There would be more opportunities for me in the future I'm sure.

Bitcoin is not everything , you can still have a good portfolio without it.

Why add Bitcoin now? It maybe 2x this year from current price and will then spend the next 2 years after that going down in bear market.

Altcoins in the current top 100 or so give you a good chance of making very good money this year, Bitcoin doesn’t.

A portfolio without Bitcoin and ETH, is not a good portfolio. So get those added asap. Especially when Bitcoin price is decreasing so it's a good time to enter.

Also get rid of any metaverse related coins asap. Metaverse hype is dead already and big companies have moved out of this space even after investing billions of dollars.

For altcoins, it's best to get your own research done instead of seeking opinion from an open forum.

If that is altcoin, I am not sure which coin I will suggest you because all coins have the same opportunities to increase. That will depend on what coin type you want. For example, you want to invest in a coin below $10, you need to gather all coins below $10 and filter that by the popularity and other requirements you know.

Besides that, it is too difficult to suggest some altcoins because we don't know which coin that can increase. But I can suggest you to invest in Bitcoin for sure because Bitcoin will be to the moon

You need to find out by yourself and not just depend on others suggestion. Research will be the key to find the potential altcoin so you should do that by your own.

Seems good, you can make some really good profits when it’s Altcoin season. Make sure you have Bitcoin, Ethereum & Solana too though. I know that they don’t have as much potential upside as the coins you have but they are more guaranteed profits if you know what I mean, albeit smaller profits.

I’m eyeing USUAL tokens now aside from my several holdings of L1 and L2 project that gave me profit last peak price. USUAL token is good because they are utility token for a stable coin project which distributes all the stable coin transactions fees to USUAL holders.

Imagine if this stable coin can share a piece of the pie from USDC and USDT in the future, I’m sure this token will skyrocket due to the profit sharing from fees will be massive.

It’s a high risk high reward now since there’s still some adjustment with the feature but I’m confident with this token future performance.

Bitcoin is not a must. Especially in 2025 when it is at its all time high and will continue pumping , best to wait till next bear market in 2026 to start buying Bitcoin when the price starts falling again. That is what I’m doing anyway.

Altcoins can 10x, 20x or even 50x in 2025 from current prices , Bitcoin maybe 2x if you’re lucky.

Out of the 5 altcoins you are holding there, I hold MultiversX also. Expecting it to 10-20x this year , fingers crossed.

Why is bitcoin not in your portfolio? I am not against investing in altcoins, and I don’t have any problem with the coins that you bought, but at least you are suppose to have bitcoin also in your portfolio. When you are making an investment, you don't have to invest just because it’s been recommended to you, and they say the coin is good, always make sure you do your own research before investing in any coin, don’t just follow what people say blindly.

Let me add a coin to the ones that you mentioned above. If you leave some little amount in SOLANA, it’s not really a bad idea, but I will recommend you do your research first before investing. Don’t just invest in it just because I recommended it to you, do your research if it is worth investing in.

BTC.

That's fine, he'd surely get to know if someone is only shilling an unknown project to him and it seems that he's lack of BTC, I've suggested that's what he needs to add to his portfolio to make it as a good one.

Don't fill up you bag with altcoins and think that you are in the game because altcoins are magical and no one can know the right one to invest that will give you good profit. Those altcoins that you bought, it's better that you don't hold them for long but sell when you see profit.

It's not all those altcoins that you bought that will pump simultaneously with each based on the influence of bitcoin price movement. Some might not be able to follow the wave.

Don't let anyone recommend you a coin to, every one of your coin selections should be based on your convictions, and dip research about the projects.


A quick look at your current portfolio, I think you are doing just fine and what you need right now is to hold some portion of Bitcoin, to balance up, and that is if you have an extra cash flow that you can put away for a long time.

I bought the altcoin dip in recent weeks and my portfolio now consists of the following coins:

- Polygon
- Fantom
- Litecoin
- MultiverseX
- Supra

Which coins would you add or recommend me?
