The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.
So, what are the trusted altcoins to hodl? The top 10 on the list? I don't think so. We've seen top listed coins dump to no return. The only people I can encourage to hodl altcoins will be those who realize the massive risk in hodling altcoin and monitoring all their social media handles so as to be in the know when any FUD comes up. Otherwise, inexperienced folks should steer clear of ALTs investment and hodl only Bitcoin. To state is clearly, hodl Bitcoin at this period. The dynamics might change after 2025 and it won't be favourable to even hodl Bitcoin then, who knows.
Don't be deceived, not all altcoins will rally up even with Bitcoin halving. Most of the altcoins will dump. So, let no one make you believe that every shit token will have a strong showing once the bull rally starts.
Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.
Risk is risk. Everybody should know that. Spot trading won't give the type of ROI Futures will give you and I believe that's why traders choose the other. Everyone to their risk level.
