Here are some altcoins that I think it could be a good move to have in 2017. It would be nice to recheck in say, 3 months (march 2017) what is my success rate. I will explain how I would distribute in % of holding I would go. (So for example, I have 1000$ to invest, if I say I would go 10% on this one, then it's 100$)
Thanks for sharing all this with us too. i'll try to say my opinion on each, hope it is helpful.
1) ETH
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 0.01 BTC or 7,90$
Yes ETH price dropped a lot, but it seems now that the drop is over. It could go back to 1 000 000 000$ marketcap but of course I'm not all in for this one. Let's say 20%
i believe ETH price drop was mostly because of the bitcoin price rise which has always meant people cashing out of altcoin market and going back to bitcoin which has always been the go-to coin hence the future of ETH price depends on the near future of bitcoin price, for example if in the next month (Jan) we see $850+ and continue rising i expect ETH to go down to $5
also if bitcoin stops rising and we see Jan to be an stable price like before on 770 is price altcoins would start moving again and ETH can see another pump and we know those pumps have always been big.
2) Bitcoin
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 783$
Not that much to say, it's the king and since the halving in july 2016 that price is still rising slowly, but I don't expect it to double, so a safe bet. Another 20%
it has already doubled a couple of times, check out last year price. and people like me who bought at $200 have more than triple
3) Monero
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 0.0108 BTC or 8,48$
Stay solid at over 100 000 000$ marketcap, could go easy to 150 000 000$ marketcap again. Another 20%
i am expecting another period of rising price for this coin again in new year because anonymity is becoming more and more popular.
and monero is getting more famous in darknet.
4) Blackcoin (BLK)
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 0.00003396 BTC or 0.0266$
This one is a different strategy. It seems to always oscillate between 2 000 000$ and 3 000 000$ marketcap. So right now it's time to buy and watch when a pump occur and then resell for profit (just before 3 000 000$) Another 20%
This is one of those coins that i have been watching and waiting for its rise but it is taking too long, but the only thing that makes me still hopeful is that it has always have big pumps and it can be a lot bigger than 20%
5) ESPERS (ESP2)
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 0.00000055 LTC or 0.000001996$
Ok this one is more for a homerun or nothing. It cost nothing, so risk is very low. If it gains attention it will enter BTC market and more exchange. So an easy X10 on this one if this occurs. so 10%
got not much to say here!
6) Litecoin LTC
Price this moment (2016-12-16): 0.004633 BTC or 3.63$
Not that much to say, it's the alt that bring them all, seems like it ain't dead. so 10%
one word: China
wait for the big ass pump soon.
20% in ETH so 25.3165 ETH
20% in BTC so 0.2554 BTC
20% in XMR so 23.58 XMR
20% in BLK so 7518 BLK
10% in ESP2 so 50 100 200 ESP2
10% in LTC so 27.54 LTC
lets see how much we are right, i have also already made investments in LTC, ETH and BLK but my percentages are 80% BTC and the rest in altcoins
p.s. waiting for a good time to enter XMR
