Transact Safer / Chase Better
Litecoin, Ripple, Stellar, Steem, Wave. Litecoin is by far my favorite. Would like to know why you don't want Ethereum, Dash and Monero on our list.

Even, I am also planning to buy and hold all these coins for the long term because already they have potential and have already proven in the market. In long term, they will give us fruitful income.

If I pick 5 altcoins except ethereum, monero, dash  I will pick I have.

1. Litecoin- this altcoin for sure will increase more because they have big potential to increase in the future. And coinbase add wallet to litecoin .
2. Zcash- the price of zcash as of now its very high and I believe it will increase more after few years more.
3. Tor coin- if you want to earn a lot of money you can buy tor coin at very cheap price and hold it for few years also to earn profit.
4. Doge- I have millions of doge in my wallet and I belive the price will grow up 1000 satoshi after few years
5. Xaurum- this coin the partners of gold and they have big potential and I hope I can see again their price to the high.

ICN, GUP, ANT, TRST, GNT. These are the best ethereum based applications until now, some of them still undervalued like TRST and GUP, and ANT just joined the market, while everyone know about the potential of ICN and GNT, so no need to talk about them.

If you all had to pick 5 coins to buy today and were required to hold them for 5 years or longer, which would you choose? Long-term time horizon. Please exclude Ethereum, Monero, and Dash from your list. Thanks
If I have the fund now I will buy Ripple, creditbit, litecoin, doge. Theses coins in five years to come will definitely going to be were bitcoin is now. We can see ripple's capitalization above 13b today and many are still buying it.

If you are picking 5 you need to include at least one or two long-shots:
new coins with really low prices that have active development and maybe one or two innovative ideas.
This way you can get a big payoff in the small chance they hit it big.
Lets be honest, making a couple hundred or a thousand dollars isn't going to change your life unless you live in a small village in Africa. And if thats the case, you probably aren't trading crypto.

I looked at the dev videos for Reddcoin (RDD) and read through the posts on their website.
They actually have a cool idea so I bought some for a couple satoshi each. Maybe it goes nowhere. Maybe it ends up being worth a couple pennies each and I make money.

Same thing with Verge (XVG)
New coin with a cheap price and has active developer.

Halloween coin (HALLO)
I have been buying this coin for 1 satoshi since new dev took over. Now its at 10 satoshi.

Vsync (XVS)
Price has really dropped after pump the last few days, but its a new coin and the blackjack game they released looks really nice. I'm impressed something so polished came out for such a new coin. Maybe the devs are legit.

IMO pick some small coins like this and roll the dice.
Maybe they go nowhere, maybe one becomes worth $1 and you own a couple million and you buy a Bugatti and crash and die but at least it was fun driving a Bugatti. Wink

1. waves
2. stratis
3. creditbit
4. Iconomi
5. ltc

As I monitor its frequent movement well i noticed that his coin i listed are more have greater potential to rise up since as we can see their are so many shitcoins died already and some new ICO's has been buried maybe they will be die soon the same to others but my top 5 coin is still alive and getting more its rythm so the price rise for more would be coming for them provably when years passes.

These are dgb , trump , Putin ,blry etc , these altcoins will never get down more and more and also they have the better support by the billionaire ( specially Trump and blry ) .
In my opinion we should hold these altcoins at least for 1 years .

you have an activity level of 420 and you actually believe that?

i think your carer should take your computer away. you're not ready for this.

Yes , you are totally true , I don't like to invest in the ETH , Montero and dash etc , it is price of altcoins are already high , so we can't sure whether we will gain more or more or we have only chances to go down .
Well here I would like to suggest you few of the coins that I trust fully . These are dgb , trump , Putin ,blry etc , these altcoins will never get down more and more and also they have the better support by the billionaire ( specially Trump and blry ) .
In my opinion we should hold these altcoins at least for 1 years .
Here I already turned my money 8 times with dgb and creva ( two times ) .

BTC. ETC. EOS
I would suggest you to look at  tokens such as EDG, VSL, SNGLS, TKN and ICN. All are Dapps based of ETH. I feel they have room to grow and appreciate in value. Right now, they have appreciated quite a bit. Maybe, you could keep track of them and buy when they correct.

Other coins would be XRP, Waves, PEPECASH and XEM. All the best.

The easy money has been made. I will say that.

yep. i don't think enough people realise this. some of the alts now have seriously high valuations. because of the nature of where they're traded, crazy pumps are still very possible but there's more room to collapse than go up these days for the big ones.

none of them have delivered on any of their promise yet look at the prices. it's nuts.

Trust no one, as they used to say on the x-files.  How many coins trade now and the vast majority are dead because their developers took the money and ran.  The ones that survive are the ones that did not take the money and run. Ethereum, XEM, and Ripple. These three are the only ones likely to see any sort of mainstream adoption for business purposes or otherwise, at least in the short to mid term until a coin comes along that can improve upon them in a significant way, which looking at their whitepapers, is not the case. None of the coins that promise anonymous transactions are going to go anywhere because businesses want trace-ability.  LTC with segwit is not really an innovative coin.. it's an improvement over bitcoin, yes, but  XEM is already better by default for scalability, security, and feature-set.

In any case the altcoin market (outside the top 5) is akin to trading pink sheet stocks. Back in 1999 I managed to buy a ticker symbol ECNC for 28 cents and sell it for 9 dollars. That bought my car. I haven't had anything like that since, until now.

5 years is way too long to speculate.  2-4 weeks ago I recommended XEM based on the tech, and it's still relatively undervalued compared to it's peers, Ripple and Ethereum, but there's probably going to be alts that can vastly outperform it on a raw percentage basis at this point since it's gone up 4-5 fold since my recommendation.

I would recommend simply waiting for ICO's that have a low cost distribution like NEM did that seem innovative. Don't go giving a bunch of developers millions of dollars for some ICO.. make them give it away and if they put in the hard work to make their technology competitive and useful, the coin will appreciate in value and they'll be rewarded at that time with the 5-10% of the coin they decide to keep for themselves and the development team.   NEM was mostly a very low cost/free distribution, and there are some pumped ICOs that are not, like Tezos. There's no reason an altcoin developer needs to raise millions of dollars before they prove themselves. They're most likely going to take the money and run. Don't be stupid.

I'll throw in a few.. but not for a 5 year hold... 5 years is too long.

decred, peercoin, byteball, namecoin, litecoin. some of those are old and out of fashion but maybe that's gonna count for something in the future. namecoin and peercoin particularly seem weirdly invisible despite their pedigree.
