it depends for me, if you are holding coins which doesn't have a good amount of marketcap and trading volume i think yes that's a risky investment and holding such coins can lead you to loss unless you earn it through bounty program.

If you are earning tokens thru bounty programs then you wont really lose any money but somehow you do just waste up your effort or the chance on making money if you do still hold up your coins for long term.This is why it does still need wise decisions on when to go out and secure profits since not all the times price do pump out because after that there would be always a hard dump.

I think alts holding is not dangerous because many investors holding it in longtermway and become a rich persons.for me it depends of your strategy if how you do a techneque so that you can get a great profit.alts is not a dangerous for me because of people and trusted to hold and sell.

Depends what your definition of dangerous is.
When you are holding the wrong ones it can cost you a lot of money.

Investing in crypto is both dangerous and profitable. We do not have to invest all our money in crypto. But only in crypto you can get a very big profit. Each of us must understand whether he is ready to take risks for high profits.

I think hodling altcoins are not dangerous. You can avoid it, the only thing which you must do is systematic watching your altcoin and sell it in suitable time

Yeah, holding altcoins actually have higher risk than holding bitcoin. The price of altcoin fluctuates more thus increases the risk of losing money (or creates a way to make some quick profit, if you know what you are doing) when the price drops. Moreover the altcoin market is more saturated, new coins become a competition for older coins thus the older coins starts to die.

How do you feel about ETH vs. others I currently have a little over 1 ETH and am trying to see what else I should invest into, thinking about litcoin, what are your thoughts?

In my opinion, holding alts isn't dangerous. Holding them too long is dangerous unless they belong to the top 10 list. For me, new promising alts are good to hold for less than a year to see if it's doing what it has promised. But then after a year of holding, that is the time you'll assess if it's still worth to hold or not.

Id say holding any crypto is dangerous ,due to non predictable behaviour.But if a project is full of potential and market is stable,at some point can make nice profit,if to cash out at the right moment,without going through the overall corrections and crashes of btc,what i did,and regreted a lot:)

I can say that NO. Holding alts is not dangerous if you just bought altcoins that is quality and the project has special features or purpose, there are many altcoins that is shitcoin, not legit. So make sure that you are holding altcoins that has the quality and real team behind the project.

Thats true, if you hold altcoin that have good quality and have good technology like Ethereum, Waves, XRP, Stellar, etc. of course the risk will not be too big because they have great potential in the future. so holding that coin for a long time is not dangerous. unless you hold shitcoin and wish they had a double price of course it is risky and dangerous..

It is dangerous - to sell alts at any drawdown and with negative news. Then the losses will be very large.

Holding Altcoin we need to have the max patience to see 30 times profit in a year or else we loss 70 percent of the portfolio. Altcoin follow parabolic path 3 month up and 3 months down

It really depends on the coin. Some coins are so overvalued and over-shilled that we would say: yes, hodling is definitely dangerous!

There is many worthless alts. It's important to choose wisely before investing money. A key is representative dev team and advanced website. My current top one is Nebula Network, decentralized storage cloud. There are already similar projects, but what's innovative here is stable exchange rate thanks to emission mechanism tied to their supply. BTC is archetype, a future of the market are real value alts

I think it's not dangerous holding altcoins, we have different plans and strategies with the altcoins in our wallets.
I've come to appreciate and believe that altcoins are very good investments, they may take a while to pump but
rewards are very satisfactory. They are widely famous for being longtermed ventures, typically it's best not to think
about it much and to give it time to do it's thing. Just make sure you are invested in a existing project that has a
potentially good prospect to succeed so that you won't be wasting the time and money you have in it. Practically
avoid being scammed since it's one of the major risks with altcoins and ICOs. But recent ICOs that have been
emerging are really saturated and interesting, there seems to be improvements sprouting with projects and markets
today.

alts are more risky than bitcoin but i think that is changing. in my view ethereum will be the dominant crypto by the end of the year, btc is dying

Last year alts rise a lot. I dont know the average percentage. But when I check coins in the market at year 2013 lots of them dead now (too low ranks). probably new tech coins won them (like peercoin, namecoin, ixcoin etc)

Also we are following new ICO s and most of us expecting too much gain from new coins which are not at the market. If our ICO expectations will happen, when they added to market, current market coins will go down. kind of paradox Huh

Yeah I agree to what they replied. It depends upon the alt coins you are holding and also one of the big factor is how good the project is. In terms of demand, will more people utilize the coins? Basically it's function. In addition to that, you should look forward on the dev team of the coins to which you are holding because they are the ones who can make it go bull run.
