Not necessarily, but chances are higher that you will find 10x to 100x return potential in coins with low position in coinmarketcap, let's say, between position 15 and 50. Below that, the vast majority of coins are projects that you don't want mess with.

Could not be. Some altcoins that have low marketcap instead end up being trash coin, because it cann't compete again in market. Marketcap cann't be used as a gauge of altcoins where we will invest, but on number of holders in my opinion.

Low market cap just means more risk. Yes it can be more gains, but also a big chance of falling to zero.
Look at the high-cap alts, these already have a big price so maybe won't increase 100x, but are also unlikely to fade to nothing. Then look at bitcoin. Even 10x with bitcoin is not likely in short or medium term, but this is offset by the fact that it is the most reliable coin and least likely to collapse. If it collapsed it would take all cryptocoins with it.

absolutely support this opinion. If you don't want to risk losing all of your money you better shoudn't go for the small ones. Investing in cryptos is risky enough if you just go for the bigger currencies

If the supply is low maybe in the future when a lot of people asks for that coin the price will go a lot up

Passionate about Crypto
Its all about risk and return.

1 million = HIGH RISK - HIGH RETURN
100 million = LOW RISK - LOW RETURNS

In ICO's - the ideal is 15 to 30 million in my opinion.

Yes. To gain high always low market cap is better. It gives high gains as it has the potential to increase its market cap thus increasing the price of the coin. If the project is good and has low market cap, then invest in it. It will be huge and you will get nice returns.

Investing in a low marketcap is more as a gamble. I find it fun to invest a small amount of money in some projects that i belive in. I don`l invest in more than 5 coins from this cathegory but if one of them turn to be succesfull i will be happy.
Of course the big part of the protofolio must be in big coins in top 10.

The good thing is these low cap coins are very good if one is well positioned before the price spike but the bad thing is that they can lose all their gains in a matter of hours to, very subject to price manipulation

Low market caps are more susceptible to pump and dumps. It also shows that the coin wont last long as it is unstable and is going to be exploited by some investors..
Not all the time, the projects that have low market caps usually have no volume within their time being traded online. Researching the investment thoroughly is how to make money.

It really depends upon the case by case basis.

However; generally speaking, low market cap is better for investment. <<== Yes I do agree with that statement 100%

So low market cap is better for investment?
It mean we dont have huge amount of coins ready for sell?


It depends but IMO it should be a "yes" to say low market cap are better for investment (Case by case)

Reason why: High marketcap coins are usually reputable, hype-able, develop-able which will make a high marketcap higher

But low marketcap coins are usually coins that belongs to 70-80% Junk, 10% gems and 10% others.

For people who are searching for risky yet real quick gain, yeah. Low marketcap is better for investment

low marketcap = bigger chance of giving you higher multipliers on your investment but the risk that you lose everything because the project fails/there's no interest in it is rather high.
high marketcap = smaller chance of high multipliers but also small risk of a failed project.

Personally I like to invest in projects with 10-30 mln marketcap.
I agree with you. I am afraid if marketcap is low then the coin becomes lost. and I prefer high marketcap.

You need to wait for them to pump it when selling it. If you have bought it when the price was low you would then make some profit. You need to watch also who the makers are if they are unprofessional i would then sell my coins fast. You never know what if the coin would fall ? You would then lose all your money.

Low market capitalization is often attractive because it means that there is space for high growth.
Sometimes I invest in projects which I am not fully convinced into just because of the differential between current market cap and immediate potential. INXT was the most recent coin which made me good gains in that regard.
Having said this the drawback is that discerining through coins with low market cap can feel like ravaging in rubbish at times..

One of a kind
Small market caps is said to present the possibility of greater capital appreciation but it  goes with a greater risk. But small capitalization market is recommended for investment, though it comes with a risk, the capital appreciation is said to be higher if the market is in good condition. Though we are not that confident on the movement of the market, I still recommend investing in low market cap as I consider this as the safest mode among others.

buy low, sell high.

I would look at quality of management team, idea, and potential for demand to grow. These are more important than market cap, market cap can always go higher. Too low can be a bad thing.

Not every trade has to be 10000% returns. Look to buy something when it has been over-sold.

Other than looking at market caps, you have to research the team and idea itself. I just bought into this ICO because they have a powerful team, idea, and execution. http://www.esportsinsider.com/2017/10/unikoingold-becomes-largest-ever-gaming-esports-token/

Not really because this just means that the coin has small room for investment even if they have a good project. Besides this kind of coins with low market cap are unstable and are prone to pump and dumps

It may still be considered another factor for me before investing into it. But on top of the low market cap, it is more important to look at the project itself. The project and not the market cap will, after all, be the one to determined whether the value will go up or go down. I am not even holding a single Syscoin right now.
