Then I can't really tell if it would result in a positive or not but since we are on a bear market as of this moment then it's safe to say that
it is likely we could see some recovery which would result in bigger profits.

Looking at the history of the bear market today is certainly less scary than when crypto was less popular. Currently crypto is getting more attention from the public and many new users are starting to log in.

buying and holding the current top 10 coins can be a good choice and wait for the recovery to occur.
But remember that doing research first is very important before deciding to invest.

if we look at the history of LUNA, of course, we will be interested in the beginning and in the end, LUNA crashes and harms many people. That is an unexpected risk to the crypto market. must be prepared for all the risks that occur. The top 10 coins that are my pick right now are of course Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, XRP, and SOLANA, then DOGE for long-term meme coins.

Currently, some altcoin recovery is starting to happen and the bitcoin price has been able to go above $20k, if this continues I hope a bull market will occur.
Wait and see and hold what you are holding right now, Do a DCA with the remaining spare money, it will save your portfolio.

If you have a nice and solid nest egg, it might make more sense to invest in a few projects or coins that are at the top of the market. For example, you have 25 thousand dollars and you can allocate it to coins like ethereum, bnb, matic. This way you can minimize the risk. But since the market is always open to everything, we cannot say that it is completely risk-free.

I always say that the biggest part of our portfolio should be btc, not the others. With your example, if you have 25k dollars then you should have about 10-15k in bitcoin, and maybe 7-8k in eth and bnb. When you covered about 20k or more like that with these three, then the rest could be whatever and it wouldn't matter.

Because, even if what you invested goes to zero, these three will go up eventually to cover the loss and make you a lot of profit. I know that it's sad to lose money with the risky stuff too, you wanted them to go up, but at the very least you have something you could invest into and make money from. That's a lot smarter decision.

BTC is a safe choice when investing in crypto than altcoins. This is what I did also, 60% of my portfolio is Bitcoin while 40% is spread to a few altcoins and it changes depending on the market condition. Currently holding 4 diffirent coins and I think it was good enough during this bear season. Not really I see it was a perfect idea but at least I was safe from losing my money because I believe that these coins I hold are known for it sustainability since it also survive from the previous market crash.

There's no such thing about being safe because we know that this crypto space isnt something that could give out guarantees on making profits in the long run.Even if we do speak about bitcoin or choosing it which it

wont really be giving out that kind of assurance that the money we had invested or put up will bear up some markets.Choosing about top 10 coins in the market and make a holding for long time.

Then i cant really tell if it would be resulting into positive or not but since we are on bear market as of this moment then its safe to say that
it is likely we could really see some recovery which would resulted out on bigger profits.

Hodl is the key to crypto but the question remains what type of token are you holdling in your portfolio? Are you trusting and believing that the top coins will keep being at the top for so long? That's impossible, CMC altcoins ranking can change anytime in favour or out of favour to a top coin you assumed it won't fall below or rise. Let's use luna as a case study. Over the years it was one of the top coins but where is it today?

Investing in top coins apart from bitcoin, Ethereum, bnb, and Xrp doesn't guarantee a long time profits. Let's be guided when choosing a top coin to invest

holding an asset or coin that has a clear value and very little chance for correction is a wise move, one example is BTC, ETH, USDT and maybe up to 10 other lists. but don't forget other alternative coins, some of which are altcoins, such as BNB although some will consider it a joke. We can't completely avoid risk even if it's just bitcoin, but maybe we can minimize the risk.

So some of my choices about investment assets are obvious, but it's possible that the ratings will change as the industry evolves. Everything is risky including bitcoin, so being different doesn't mean you don't have the same goals especially about return on investment.

and the most important of an investment To be precise, what is called an investment, profit and risk must be proportional to each other there is no investment that only generates profit without risk including gold or real estate, many people still lose money when investing in gold and real estate Not only the tragedy that befell LUNA but bitcoin is still considered a high risk investment so always be responsible when investing.

There is no investment that is safe and guarantees a definite profit, the opportunity to lose is always there even if we invest in property, gold or something else, the opportunity to lose is always there, let alone invest in the top 10, and of course we still remember LUNA, before it was destroyed LUNA was ranked 7.

Ranking on certain cryptocurrencies does not guarantee an extraordinary profit for investors, as in the Luna example you mentioned. But Luna's example cannot be taken into other investment matters such as property, gold and others of the same type, because Luna is part of a cryptocurrency that used to exist even though it has now been destroyed. So the Luna example can still be used for other cryptocurrencies with almost similar types so that the path can be very unidirectional in my opinion.

Of course the ranking will not guarantee that it will last a long time, when the developer or project tries to manipulate with the aim of seeking its own profit, slowly the investor will know, and sometimes the developer does not focus on the goal so that the project will stop and make prices continue to decline.

It's clear, investment doesn't have to refer to the coin rating because this can trigger a big reaction when one of the factors occurs for example like Luna. Well, in cases like this, many investors have suffered huge losses and it is even suspected that someone committed suicide. so I am pessimistic if I have to choose a coin in the rankings to be made an investment in the long term. I am safer choosing to invest in bitcoin and eth because these two parent coins have a history of promising returns if invested in the long term. if other coins are possible for day trading it is quite good where if the profit has been obtained then it should be immediately sold and you can buy again when the price has dropped again.

I think blind investment to top altcoins is never that great. Thinking about Tron especially. I would never invest and hold it because its nothing more than speculative coin now. But if you dig a bit in top 25 coins and their future projections, it can be great to find coins. I feel like Bitcoin, Ethereum and BNB will still stay as market dominator coins, I don't think I can imagine 4 one in that league. But I feel like there is great possibility to see new coin that should be part of your hodl wallet.

Let me say from my own observation many coins we regards today worldwide, some other people have rejected so many of them, because from initial i known when my friends was having double minded to purchase BNB and saying that BNB is not a good project, but today you can see the progress of BNB, likewise Ethereum during the beginning of it's adoption. So in summary no coins today that have good project we can say it have no value or it will not survived. Because of our personal research and speculations over a particular coin.

I have tried this before, a few years ago and not now, and it failed miserably. It all depends on how the top 10 will do. First of all you should remove all the stablecoisn because they won2t really give you anything, they just stay pegged to dollar. After that, whatever remains as the top 10 is the real top cryptocurrency.

A few years ago we had other coins at top 10, bitcoin and ethereum and bnb was still top 10, xrp too, but that's about it I think, I am not sure but it changed a lot, many of the top 10 coins of that day became lower, some are not even in top 30 right now. This is why it was a bad decision back then, don't know if it would be good now.

Surely old all of us are trying how to choose the top altcoin as a long term investment but I am also in a failure so I have to change my portfolio rotation and switch to bitcoin which is the only portfolio so far because for me altcoins will never be like bitcoin which continue to stay all the time is in the top so I think it will be better and the choice to be the only bitcoin.

Whenever the position of altcoins will definitely change, I'm sure someday in the future we will see some of the top 10 altcoins will also be displaced with new coins, so I won't try to vote again except bitcoin.

I guess it doesn't matter which altcoin they choose, it remains our stand that bitcoin is a bright future.

Thank you for the great effort you made in creating this topic, for me I do not like to take risks so I always choose Top Ten coins in the market to put the largest part of my capital in, I do not like to risk big numbers so I use these top ten coins because they are guaranteed in the future , while I am risking a small section of my capital in shitcoins with lots of zeros (there is a good chance it will multiply many times) and when it goes up a little I sell it and make some profit.

Well it’s better to just invest in these top ten coins than to risk your money exploring and hoping for huge profits out from these shitcoins and meme coins. Although investment comes with certain risks, but if you invest in established coins and coins that have proven their utility overtime, then the risk is lessen. So yes, hodling these top 10 coins is good and will ensure us for safer investments.

You only have to take a careful look at the top 10 coins in terms of market cap over the years. What you will see there is that the coins are changing. The top 10 coins in market cap years ago are not anymore the top 10 coins now. The coins came and go. New coins replaced them. But then those new coins were also replaced by other new coins. Bitcoin is the only coin that is there right from the start until today. And it remained the top 1.

This is a big statement about Bitcoin and altcoins.

Yes, that's really true. Over time, new coins kept coming into the top 10 and others have disappeared. When i started with cryptocurrencies, coins were in the top 10 that you don't hear about anymore and that nobody talks about anymore. For example, PeerCoin, Mastercoin, NXT and MaidSafeCoin were in the top 10 in 2014. Who still knows them today? Unfortunately I can't remember which coins were in the top 10 in 2012. But here is a picture of the coinmarketcap from 2014.

Source: https://web.archive.org/web/20140711041606mp_/http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/views/all/

You've been here very early so you know that from actual experience. When I came to crypto late 2016, the top 10 are not anymore in the top 10 today except for Bitcoin and a couple of altcoins perhaps. Ethereum and Ripple are probably there already. If I'm not mistaken Antshares which later on rebranded to Neo was there along with Bitcoin Cash, XEM, Litecoin, Monero, etc. Although these coins are still here and probably still solid, new ones have already replaced them in the high ranks.

I'm not too sure about the top 10, but would probably consider the current top 5. Bitcoin, ETH, and XRP haven't been in the top 5 for years, so I think it would be good to have all three in my portfolio.

I would probably consider some other altcoin like BNB although some would find it a joke. We can't really avoid risk even if it's just bitcoin, but maybe we can minimize the risk. So some of my choices about investment assets are clear, but it's possible the ratings will change as the industry evolves. Everything is risky including bitcoin, so being different doesn't mean you don't have the same goal especially about the return on investment.

Since not everyone would have that huge fund to invest then it would really be that ideal on sticking with the current top 5 ranking coins in the market which its not really that bad to make out diversification
with these options but if you arent really that confident with these options then its better to stick out with Bitcoin but its up to your own choice on which one you would really be choosing.
Good tactics or wise decisions would really be depending on market condition and there's no such about assurance on making profits in the future.
This is why you should always be mindful about risk management thing.

Please don't make make a thread to lure a newbie to invest in shitcoins, if they're only look on the percentage without doing a research they will say ETH and BNB are better than Bitcoin because ETH and BNB price is surge higher than Bitcoin, also ETH and BNB didn't loss too much like Bitcoin. The main factor is the date that the @OP use, he's choosing a particular date that make BTC performance isn't in good condition.

But if you look closely at all the tables over the years, it is easy to see that bitcoin has always dominated the top and other altcoins will mostly be replaced or dropped in rank year by year. Don't just care about ROI but ask why bitcoin is always at the top of the list.
@OP, I think to avoid confusion for newbies in case they don't research but only look at ROI, OP you should add the market capitalization column.

In order to get benefits from both bitcoin and altcoins, it is better to have a portfolio that contains both bitcoin and altcoins. I usually suggest people to keep 50% of their money in bitcoin but at the same time invest the remaining 50% of their money in altcoins. In this way, you will never be worried as you will benefit from both the bitcoin and altcoins ROI.
Also, when it comes to altcoins, it is better to invest in top altcoins.

I think no one said it's safe since the risk of losing is always present no matter where do you want to invest your money but with proper knowledge and research of what do you want to invest you may minimize that risk of losing. And also, diversifying might save you some trouble in the future if the market turn sideways you have a backup plan to at least minimize losses.

Luna was one of the example of a hyped coin that is too good to be true and some people didn't experience it in the past but I've seen some of these pump and dump coins that eventually gone and is no good after the whales take their profit.

There's no guarantee when investing, even if they're the top 10 ranked coins. The sooner we adopt this mentality, the better. There are quite a few instances of coins dropping down from the top 10, either because they crashed or due to loss of interest. Some examples include Litecoin, which did not crash to zero but was simply outclassed by newer, more advanced coins; XRP, which crashed after a lawsuit, if I'm not mistaken; and Terra, which is now worth almost nothing.

It's pretty safe to conclude that investing is risky. Even if you choose to go with the safest-looking options, the risk is always there.

Also, I'll have to disagree with the OP's statement regarding 10x capabilities by investing in Bitcoin or Ethereum. Nowadays, in order to achieve a 10x from Bitcoin, it'd have to surpass $200.000, which is highly unlikely to happen anytime soon.

to reduce such risk, even if you are investing in top alts, you should also keep up with their updates and not be contented for months or years without checking the progress of the coin. there are some instances like the xrp lawsuit and the terra crash. if you think there is surrounding news towards the coin you are holding, better keep an eye on them and decide which path you will take before you totally lost your investments.

That goes without saying. You should always keep track of your portfolio, especially when dealing with altcoins. However, it's not always possible to suspect a possible crash. Terra, for instance, crashed throughout the night. I remember going to sleep thinking my UST were just fine, only to wake up with $300 less in value. I would never leave funds on a coin and not thoroughly keep track of its progress.

The only one I feel comfortable doing is with Bitcoin, which has proved its worth throughout the years. Apart from Ethereum, perhaps, I don't think I'd hold any other altcoin without paying attention to the market. Cryptocurrencies are not autopilot, they need persistence, patience and strength in order to survive and earn money through them.
