Topic: Portfolio for 20K USD (Read 884 times)

The problem is that people look at the market and think they can beat it when in fact that is a very difficult thing to do and instead of choosing a low risk strategy they prefer to do all kind of strategies and tricks that at the end do not work as well as simply holding, I'm sure if we were able to compare the results of people that held and people that trade, holders will have more earnings.

For long term growth you want a token that gives you network rewards.  As the company grows, you are apart of it and get rewarded every quarter.

A coin with upside is Centra.  As more people use their card, the more network rewards every token holder will get because the network reward is a % of what users spend.

Price is low right now since wallet and cards were delayed but on schedule to release/ship in the next couple of months.  KYC process to unlock wallet is occurring now.

US is the most regulated place and hardest to ship cards to and Centra has received money transmitter license in 31 states and working on the rest.  Shows centra will be able to ship to US where many other debit cards cannot.  Will truly be a worldwide card.

Many people point to the Fud that is out there currently.  Much of the fud is not true and are personal attacks on the founder not on the company itself.  But Fud still harmful for a company in its beginning stages, so the board has decided to restructuring itself and bringing in more people with expertise in the field, like Chase and Allan Shutt, etc.  And they are currently interviewing blockchain and finacial experts now to become the new CEO.

If I had seen this place 5 days ago, I could have a very nice suggestion for you. I suggest you follow Genesis Vision. After four or five months, I would argue that your price will go up to 20$.

Your strategy is already quite good. With about twenty thousand I'd something similar. I'd buy about 30% ETH and BTC, invest another 30% to various top ten coins and the rest 40% I'd invest in ICO's or anything that I see fit investing in. It really depends on your risk level though, if you don't want to take many risks then you can leave out the ICO part and invest in coins that have already proven themselves. If you want more risk try to invest in more ICO's and see how that works out for you. You will probably see results after a couple of months maybe even years so it's a good idea to be in for the long-term and not short term. If you're looking to gain short term profits then you might wan to consider trading.

Not trying to prove anything, this is just a part of my investments to compare with my active trading. Cos in my experience, hodl would work better  if i didn't jump into some of the doubtful trades out there.

What are you trying to prove by not touching your portfolio for 3 months,and you're happy with the loss you might get just because you won't touch your portfolio in between? Don't be so adamant,instead of you getting a loss,you can be actively part of it. If you don't have enough time to be actively part of the portfolio,what you can do is invest in small amounts which will be apparently lesser than $20,000. The possible altcoins you can include in your portfolio can be :- XRP,XMR,OMG,ETH,NEO etc. Didn't want to include BCH as the price has only been increasing ,and won't recommend you to invest in it at this moment.

A loss of 20% of 20,000$ is equal to $4,000. That can get you can get 0.6BTC or 12 ETH approx.

I would recommend the PBG newsletters if you can afford them, great picks all around. They break down which coins to buy, complete with breakdowns and trailing stop-loss recommendations.

Get some ETP while it's cheap, expecting it to gain a lot next year.

Well certainly start with a fairly bitcoin heavy portfolio, I would say somewhere between 20-50% depending on how much risk you want to take on. After that get some stronger more stable alts and then some riskier alts. Do not expect miracles with 20k in side of 3 months however, any profit should be accepted.

i wouldnt say that ethereum price is too low
NEO yes maybe.. but ETH is not too low.. it will hard for ethereum to grow x2 .  . .

i say Cardano.. make a research, some big moves in the next 3 months
KMD too, but i think that Cardano can make bigger

I think invest in BTC now is too late. Buy Etherum or Neo, they good altcoins and price still low.

The idea is good but to invest for only a few months is not a good idea, if you want to test the waters of what you can expect why not just look at the previous 3 months and see how the coins behaved in that time frame, investing for the long term, especially since you are planning to only invest in the top 5 or top 10 coins, seems like a better idea to me but at the end it is your decision.

Put 30% on bitcoin.
Then put the rest on altcoin.

The altcoin i recommend to you :
1. Neo ( reason : you can generate gas by staking Neo )
2. Waves ( reason : you can leased your waves, waves will have waves-NG which they claimed will be the most speed transaction )
3. Boscoin ( probably will be the next eth or neo 10k boscoin for staking )
4. Exscudo ( probably will be the next waves but will provide more security, 25k for masternodes )
5. Spectre ( you can get dividend for holding it )

CrMg
20%-BTC, ETH
10% - Dash, Neo, LTC, XMR, Lisk, Zec

I want to invest some money in networking and go to the good conference  (https://blockshowasia.com/) I'm sure I'll find great ideas and insights... What do you think guys about it?

The best thing that you can do is just buy two bitcoins, and just invest the rest on other altcoins that you really see tentative.
Two bitcoins will cost you around 13 thousand dollars, and you have other 7 thousand to invest in other altcoins, but you really need to look for more information about the projects that you really want to invest.
Ethereum and Monero are the best ones if you are looking for a middle term, they are the best ones, but i dont think that they will make more than x2 in just three months.

You can obtain a good portfolio with $20,000 and you need to draw yourself a plan. Bitcoin can be the majority, around $10,000 to $15,000 on your portfolio. ETH also should be there around $5,000. You can also add some more top altcoins, avoid ICO tokens pleae. They're not stable.

If you are unconfortable with a -20% temporary drawback, you should not into the crypto world.

But if you think that the current investment universe if going nowhere, you can check my current holdings:
- BTC, the digital coin you must have some: 40%
- LTC, the antechamner of BTC with tech specs way above BTC, long term hedge: 20%
- VTC: what BTC should have been all about in the very first place. Best tech, best devs deeply undervalued: 20%
- MONA: the only Japanese coin. When Trump decides to ban cryptos, you may want to own a coin that is fully Japanese whereas Japan is the only country that give cryptos legal tender: 20%

Bitcoin has been giving us much more returns that all those annoying altcoins that are on the market, it is just an advice, you are not going to make a lot of money in just three months, because the altcoin market is pretty freezed nowadays.
If you really want to make profit, just buy bitcoin, it is going to pump to more than ten thousand dollars once that the CME starts to add bitcoin to it's futures list, so this is the best moment to jump in.
Good luck with that.
