Often times I read various posts of people/traders/investors preaching HODLing some altcoins for years and so on thus I took some to research on altcoins 3years and guess what? Most of the altcoins in 2016 are no more to found anymore. You can take a deep look as well via https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20160103/

My candid advise is to trade with the five senses intact and not with emotions. Don't get on some shitcoins with the intention to hold for years else you might get rekt.

Most of these altcoins exist, but they are not in top 100, but in most cases they have bigger market than in the 2016. Compare it and you will see. Wink

Many old coins no longer exist and this might happen because the developer team is no longer active or has begun to be abandoned by investors. In addition, many new projects with advanced business prospects make old coins begin to be abandoned and it is true that coins that are now in the top 100 are mostly new coins.

I also think that in the cryptocurrency market there are at least 400 very liquid Altcoins. And these coins have the right to life and will continue to continue their development!

Have a sense of knowing good altcoins. It's not bad at all to trade and invest to altcoins but you should also know your limitations as an investor. Learn from the past and apply it to your current investing technique.

I do not think in that direction, not all altcoins can get one rekt, before you invest in any altcoin, you should have done a lot of research and also make sure to pick coins found in coinmarketcap especially the tops. Especially those with undervalued price but with potential. With time you will definitely be in profit.

That's right and this is what I'm saying. Having that kind of sense and knowing the good and bad altcoins.

If you said most altcoins, then yes it is true. But not all altcoins can get us rekt.
New altcoins without team details must be avoid, transparency is very important in new crypto project to gain trust.
For now, i will only buy top altcoins to hold while the market is still on the bottom.

So the 10 altcoins above in coinmarketcap are the right altcoins to store, because basically altcoin altitude top positions have a good development in the future.

yes, the top altcoin in the market is the right choice to minimize losses, especially if the market is in a bad situation. It is not recommended to hold altcoin whose development is slow. I personally also have top altcoin like bnb, eth and usdt, what about you?

That would be the worst advice ever, holding altcoins right now is the worst thing that can ever happen to any investor, when it comes to altcoins, the best thing to use them for is short term trade, it is a trade that you can get in and get out quick.

Altcoin are not much reliable for now to stay with them for the future, the moment that we see an increase in them, that is the point where we have to quickly remove them and look for bitcoin to invest in and i think that is actually what many people are doing right now, and this is the reason why bitcoin is gaining dominance for a while now, people are just tired of holding on altcoins, most especially their bull run, and bitcoin being the only performing coin, they are investing in it.

I think that the storage time of altcoins depends on alikhonov, in which you invested. The main thing to remember is that investments are made for profit, so it is worth selling when you get it and not be too greedy.

if altcoin we have is included in the junk project category I think yes it will make us rekt, but if not the results will certainly not be rectal but at the moment looking for altcoin that will bring profit is very difficult even projects from ieo will make a rekt.

You can do short-term trading for these altcoins and if you know their history, you can easily predict if you will gain something from it. But holding altcoins which are not in the top 20 will really give you headache later on. Because most of them will be worthless or no value at all in exchanges. Very few can survive.

Don't limit on the top 20 only because the ranking here https://coinmarketcap.com/ is very competitive.

Majority of the coins rank 21 to 100 are also good coins basing on its trading volume, and the ranking changes, coins in the bottom could also rise if they investors will choose to put them up, so it's also necessary to dig deeper so we will not judge easily, instead we will see the real value by looking behind the price of the coin.

Depends on which altcoin you are holding. And how much it effect your portfolio. In this market most of the coins are altcoins so many people are in to altcoin. In also hold some alts but most of my portfolio are into bitcoin. Almost 60% maybe. 25-30 % into high cap coins or highcao altcoins. And then very less in some risky alts. This kind of risky alts can give you huge profit or nothing. So if you are into this alts with your full portfolio then you better should think about it.

It seems holders are the biggest loser in crypto. Why hold when you can actually increase your amount of token by simply trading the coin. Just swing trade it , buy low and sell. You make profit and you still get to keep your token. Its a win win situation if you can trade at minimal chance of loss

That works great ... until it doesn't.

ETH holders years ago made a fortune. Swing trade at the wrong time, and you watch as your token becomes too expensive to buy back into.

So it can be worth doing in smaller amounts, or if you can guess the swings correctly. Just be aware that if you guess wrong, sometimes things can go very very wrong. There are also tax considerations to take into account, swing trading will turn all of your long term capital gains into short term... and unrealized gains into realized (at least for US people).

If you want you hold potential alts, make it is really promising just like Ethereum, Vet, Cardano, Kcs, Neo and Waves.
These coins I had mentioned are all listed on top in the market. Because I agreed that once you choose the wrong altcoins,
for sure it will definitely wreck you up. And make your reference for this is CMC, good luck

My opinion is that holding a lot of coins in long investments is not profitable, many of them will depreciate sooner or later - lost money, in addition to investing in altcoins, I consider it necessary to constantly trade

Indeed a truth ! Following these statistics , it’s only dangerous to hold some altcoins because by records , they will be flawed in a war or two ! So it’s good to choose what you hold and hold for long , when to sell high and when to buy back .

reconsider before you put money into altcoin, my suggestion is to minimize losses you can place money on the top altcoin in the market. related to HOLDing depends on how altcoin you hold, if you have altcoin that is difficult to develop it is a warning for you to take another altcoin option that is more feasible for long-term investment.

You own the pen

The kind of attitude you need in this industry is needed to be above average because the movement of the price can shock you at any moment, mostly when it goes down after a sudden pump. you really need to learn this kind of basic before to engage in some kind of crypto investment.

Most people that have successfully earned a huge amount of coins is because of their patience to hold it and the knowledge on when to sell it, its not just some kind of trusting your instinct in this kind of industry you really need to use your brain unlike you are on school, you can let your mind walk while you looking at your teacher but in this kind of thing you really need to focus or you will end up losing your mind as well.
