It's too late to invest into doge, or too risky.

TinEye, so are you saying that it was a bad idea to get into the XRP scene at 0.0159?  You dont see XRP going up any further?  According to ripplecharts max time trame for USD/XRP about last year ago it went to 2.3 (I believe) before it started going down due to some protocol's problem that I can't remember now and am too lazy to re-research it again.  But it looks like these ripple problems that plagued the protocol looks fixed and the coin is finally out of "Beta", and banks are starting to get into it, banks all over the world seems to prefer ripple over bitcoin which should tell me that there should be hope for ripple's market cap to keep on increasing, for me, it looks like today's (now) price of 0.0177 is just the tip of the iceberg, I don't know if I have these feelings because I invested all of my remaining bitcoins (3) on ripple and would be devastated if it goes back to 0.0049 (you know, the investor's hope), but my feelings seems to have some fundamentals, seeing all these banks getting into ripple.

Also, people on the bitcoin scene keeps on talking about bitcoin being "over sold" and having lots of downward pressure, so if bitcoin comes crashing down hard while XRP stays afloat or rising, then I would have more bitcoins with me if I decide to sell some back to BTC.  Lets say BTC crashes to $100.00 and my 95,000 XRP is at 0.0177 thats $1,681 / $100 thats 16.8 BTC and then bitcoin comes back to $350 and I would have $5885.  Now, in the other token, if I see BTC crashing hard and I didn't purchase any XRP, then I would feel equally devastated, so its damned if you dont buy XRP or damned if you buy XRP (if you would like to see it that way)

If you think that ripple will indeed come crashing down once again, specially if soon then let me know, at least with some facts that I can read for my self, because I have spend lots and lots of hours researching XRP before I made my investment and lots of more hours researching XRP after my investment to see if I made the right decision, but I may have missed something that you can help me clarify.

I currently have two hundreds ForumCoins. And I plan to continue 'mining' it. ForumCoin is not a clone of Bitcoin. Instead,  you earn by posting on forums. Second to Bitcoin,  Stellar. I have about two hundreds Stellars. Someone I know, invested in 100,000 stellars.

Bad move, the pump was quite dubious. If you were a previous holder that was fine, but for all those got in later there's some major heartburn left.

From the rest of your post it looks like you are loaded so it should not matter much.

This is true.

Also, my portfolio:

LTC
VTC
NXT
HBN
some Doge
Ethereum once it comes out and I can buy it

This is all, but if I had more cash to spare perhaps I could diversify even more.

XRP, XMR, PPC

Stealthcoin XST is best choice at the moment

For me, my best choices for investment after bitcoins are:

 * XRP, when it was at 0.0049 each I purchased like 19,000 XRP, now I see that I should have purchased more (Hey, I didn't knew at that time if XRP was going to continue going down, I saw it oscillate between 0.0049 and 0.0047 which hinted me that it might go further down, then I forgot about XRP, then fast foward exactly 40 days later I see 0.0135 and I said, NO WAY! I bet it wont go any higher and it will start going back down, I was hesistant so I didn't purchase more at that price, only when I saw it go to 0.0159 was that I started to panic buy and I sent 3 BTC from my coinbase account to kraken and purchased a few thousands XRP so my XRP total balance now reads 95,000 while I day dream of the day where XRP might reach the price of 25.00 each so that I can have 2.3 million dollars, and the speed I see XRP going up this can be totally possible within a few more years, so this XRP buy will be a long term hold wait-and-see...

 * BTC, I keep on buying BTC on coinbase from time to time when I get more money from my self-employment job (Computer Tech) as part of my long term investment portfolio.  I am currently designing a computer retail website where I plan to accept only Bitcoin and XRP as payment method, I expect to make lots of BTC's and XRP's upon launch.

 * IFC (InfiniteCoin), I purchased 10,000,000 IFC off some guy on Ebay around the Nov of 2013 right before last bitcoin's bubble, and I am holding it to see what happens to it in the future.  IFC has fast halving periods which is promising at increasing its value over a long term period.  

 * DOGE, I have over  100,000 DOGE's with me just for the sakes, another long term portfolio.

 * COL - CollosusCoin, I traded, I think 10 to 25 litecoins a few months ago for over 700,000,000 COL when its price was 0.00000003 (LTC) each at cryptsy and I am holding it in case if COL goes to the moon in the future.

 * I purchased millions of other coins I saw at cryptsy whose value didn't exceed a max of 0.00000008 BTC/LTC at most for holding purposes.

So, I threw some random shots as different ALT coins to see if I hit the right target in the future.

Overall, the one that I see more promising above all is XRP, and I plan to continue adding to XRP each time I see it go back to at least 0.016x which that has been happening within the past 3 days, it goes up to 0.0175 when I go to sleep and then when I wake up I see its at 0.0160 I figure its people selling their XRP to BTC when its at 0.017x and buying back in when its at 0.016x but when I examine the ripplecharts website to see long term movements I only see one direction, up up and up, so it would be prudent to just buy lots of XRP's, toss out the key, then check back at it a few years later to see any ROI.

Weird choice. Both of these currencies was not doing good lately.

Anyway, Bitcoin is my only choice

I'm using my heritage money to dump ico alts below ico. It's really not about investing

Maidsafecoins for on chain aka related to Bitcoin stuff
Clams for off chains but because of the way they are distributed they have potential

I like doge lite etc as well but the above two are my picks

LTC and XMR for me.

XPY - Paycoin

Guaranteed floor of $US20 (0.06 BTC) on POS launch
Currently as low as 0.031 on coin-swap.net - nearly 50% profit in a few days? Golden 

Take a look at Saffroncoin.
Price is so low right now. It can only rise .
Dev always delivers. (check the thread ) (not moderated since begining)
SFRDirect will be released soon (in the matter of days (at max) ). Decentralized Exchange.
It is shortterm investition. But it is one of the best investment oportunities right now.
 

Agreed on clam... I think the jury is still out on paycoin. I think demand for darkcoin is going to spike in 2015 again.

Recently its has been CLAM.

Next week...who knows

just see the history of guldencoin you love it

yes that is guldencoin

GULDENCOIN the best coin for 2015
