Topic: Help setting targets. How to calculate a 100x return? (Read 133 times)

Everyone should have a goal before investment, but the goal for most people, are more difficult to achieve But is necessary to specify a target, because of the target, can you strive for it

Setting your own goal is fine, but don't expect that the goals you will set will be achieved.
if you want to invest in crypto, you should spread your investments over multiple coins which on average sh/could give a nice return for 2018.
the current expectation for the whole market cap on crypto is expcted to grow 3 to 4 times with the same expectancy for individual coin value.

You would have to make proper/lucky investments to have even a 10x return on your investment.
My suggestion, look at promising ICO's where you have the biggest changes to gain (or break) for high ROI's.
to be on the more safer side, invest in well known technologies. But then accept that the possible returns will be lower.

all depending on what you want to risk
high risk, high return, high change of lossing money
low riks, lower return, lower chance of losing money

it's all up to you

IMHO It is all about the project and the marketcap of it, you cant calculate it before markets reaction.

Well there are only estimations, best is to look at marketcap and what it realistically could do.

Lets say you invest in a dApp platform, the biggest would be Ethereum; which sits at an 85billion marketcap (phew thats a lot!)
Then we got another which is NEO which sits at 5 billion.

If we'd sum up all the dApp platforms together, we get a total marketcap of dApp platforms. You can try to realistically assess how much of a marketshare your dApp platform could take. Lets stick to the NEO and ETH example of 90 billion total.

Lets say they manage to take 10% then we're looking at 9 billion marketcap for your dApp platform. Divide the 9billion by the current marketcap of your dApp platform you're investing in. Lets say the current marketcap is 400 million so. 9/0,4= 22,5x

(9bln/0,4bln)

So your coin COULD go 22,5, lets say its 3 dollars then 22,5x3= 67,5 per token.

But this is mainly all guesswork really. There's no real good way to say how high it can go. Lets take NEO, a lot of quality projects are being produced but the marketcap is still relatively low compared to Ethereum, maybe thats a sign its undervalued for where its currently at? So thats a buy signal at least.

But just trying to give you an illustration of how you could assess profitability. There are other methods aswell though.


Take this all with a grain of salt though.

I am looking to set a profit goal for some coins. How is a 1x, 5x or 100x return calculated?
