Its partly dependent on the team behind the coin. Plenty of those coins failed because of the bad/incompetent team behind it.

of course this is dangerous because there are so many altcoins that drop and dont come back again and I think it's just a safe ethereum for long-term investment

if you do not invest in altcoins, it is very difficult to get a big profit. you simply will not invest with ether. many investors enjoy early retirement thanks to the altcoins you think are dangerous Smiley

the most important thing that we do not trade or invest based on trend. we have to research carefully its project, its product. If everything is ok, you can buy them.

I do not believe holding coins will be dangerous at future.I think your holding coin is not effective such as namecoin,peercoin & ixcoin.I recommend you can holding best potential coin like as eth,waves,dent,ripple,nem,monero & omg etc.Hopefully this coin is best for long holding.

Definitely not. Why will it be dangerous hodling altcoins? Altcoins have way way more potentials if you will just study them well. Altcoins are not just coins, they are revolutionary ideas which could transform how we live in the future. You can also trade altcoins at very low prices compared to bitcoin, that means there are huge prospectives for growth if you invest your money in it.
It will because not all of the altcoins are having proper progress on its development. You can try to see that some coins were having so many problems with the development progress. Because not all of the altcoin has good daily trade volume and that will become more difficult to liquidate all of out token to the market. That's why significant token still becomes more preferable.

I'm not sure that holding altcoins is that dangerous. Most of alts are trading in pair with BTC or ETH only, so if BTC will gain value, alts will, too. This is too common answer, but this is the idea.

It sure is dangerous. But the high profits are led by small investors like ours.

It is dangerous if you really bought them with real money. Else, the risk is that the coin is dead and can't be traded anywhere.
It can also give you more profits if the value of the alt has increased.

Market crash happens,It doesn't mean it is dangerous at that moment  you just hold for long term and when market go up the cash out,or re invest in others coin.

It is good investment should diversify which will minimize the losses.

yes your opinion is correct. in my opinion the technology must always evolve, and certainly there are advantages of the old technology. I think for the price it is not stable, and that too not only 1 altcoin, but the whole altcoin. in my opinion, as long as the coins you get are free, and bonus. it will not matter if you save it. as long as the coin is still valid, you still get the money

It depends on what kind alts. Some of them look very stable and promising. It is dangerous to buy very little-known alts, but even they can give a good profit.

You can hold some alts with a small portion of your capital, but it is definitely not safe to place the majority of your holdings in them especially for small caps.
Not totally dangerous nor it high risk of we just hold our coins,  it matters only how we keep them in a wallet. It actually talking about how secure is our wallet where we put and hold our coins,  and also it matters how used it in exchanger sites. Mostly we've been hack due to our own mishandling and carelessness of our account.

The danger as I see it is, overspending, throwing money at things you haven't got.. without doing your research.  Everything has a risk, it's just justifying the risk you're taking will be worth it.  Only you know the answer to that...

Of course, there is a risk. Even if you carefully select your coins.
To reduce the risk, you can monitor your positions and sell the some part on a big rise (pump). So guaranteed to take at 0 or even in plus, and positions.

It of course depends on the alt. You need to research it to verify whether it's legitimate or a scam. If it's legitimate and has a decent roadmap with goals that will monetize the token you're holding then hodling it isn't dangerous.

Anything in these markets can be dangerous given the volatile nature of them. The better question you should be asking is: what coins have actual use cases? Those are the ones that will survive past a couple years
Thats true I think it will depend on the altcoin you choose. if you choose a potent altcoin like Ethereum of course the risk will be smaller. but the risk will still exist because the entire crypto has fluctuations. dangerous or indefinite will depend on your knowledge and skill in choosing altcoin. altcoin is dangerous to hold because many altcoins are alive in just a short time. look for altcoins that have good long-term plans and trustworthy.
