21 btc is a great figure.

alts? man, i dunno. i'm not confident that any have a long term future worth bothering with. there's definitely money to be made, far more than bitcoin pretty often, but you have to time it right and you'd be foolish to get emotionally attached to any of them. better to treat them as what they are - short term pumps and dumps.

if i was gonna go down the long term alt route i'd be looking for stuff that's just beginning and costs next to nothing. no point enriching pumpers for coins that don't have much or any upside left.

As of right now I think there is nothing worth holding long term besides bitcoin cryptocurrency wise. All the altcoins are useless compared to bitcoin, no other coin can compete... maybe to try to make more BTC in market swings I would hold some ETH, ETC, XMR... any of the ones with good volume.

I do believe bitcoin is great for future investment, and i myself will save some for the future, but 21 BTC is too little, and investing ethereum is a risky things, ethereum had a bad security which resulted a hard-fork, and i do agree don't put all of your investment in one basket, but alt coin seems a bit unstable for investment, i think you better hold on to bitcoin and gold

A nice crypto portfolio for the future is structured as follows:

100% Bitcoin.

The risk-reward ratio of all altcoins is simply not very good. Bitcoin has by far the largest network effect. It draws in the most developer talent and will continue evolve. All altcoins basically depend on Bitcoin as their reference value. Only Bitcoin has gained some significant real world acceptance.

If you want to diversify your portfolio buy some other assets like precious metals. In my opinion most altcoins will devalue compared to Bitcoin (they might gain compared to fiat though).

ya.ya.yo!

Hello everyone,

I am a strong crypto believer. Bitcoin believer first of all. I am trying to invest as I can afford, trying to earn bitcoins, etc, so I can make myself a nice crypto fund for my retirement! Smiley

After much thinking, I came to decide that I would be happy with 21 BTCs and 500 ETH for this future fund of mine. Why Ethereum you might ask? I am a strong Bitcoin believer but just in case, I think that one should hold some ethers as well. After all, this is a number 2 crypto and I was always thought that I should never keep all my eggs in one basket.

So I am curious to know other opinions. Are these 21 BTCs and 500 eths too much, too little, just right or whatever someone might think. After seeing answers, I might even re-evaluate my stash goals as I am still nowhere close to the numbers above, But I am working hard and trying to get there.

Mods if you feel that the topic doesn't belong here, feel free to move it to the right thread.

Thanks guys and all the best!

Ethereum is the number 2 crypto?

I thought that dogecoin or litecoin is the number 2 crypto.

For the last 5 months i`ve seen many people saying that ethereum is dead.Is this true?

Instead of that, I d buy only Factom. I think this coin s going to have bright future, going up at least 5x. I ve been into crypto since 2012 and I usually know what I m talking about. Still, do your own research but check Factom thread.

What is also important is how long you have before you retire.
If your retirement is 25-30 years away, 21 BTC might be more than sufficient.  Smiley

I got easily 30 years! Smiley But I think this is too much time time for Bitcoin. 10 years will suffice! Smiley

The idea of never keeping all your eggs in the same basket is a smart move and I like ethereum too.

Hold is a good option but this world have no easy money, just work outside cryptos and buy coins, that's the best way.

Did you think in investing those amounts in a project which make you able to get yearly interests from them, there are many new blockchain based legit project such as ICONOMI, they will pay dividends in Ethereum coin, and in any time you can sell the tokens and restore your money if you were not satisfied, ICONOMI team is working on building legal company and attracting great investments.

I am not sure about all this. Too much risk, little reward. I will rather hold 10 years and just hope we will see 1 BTC at 50k one day!! Smiley

Im pretty much in the same boat as you, i would love 21BTC but that is really just a vanity thing.  i hold a few ether myself and made a pretty good profit of them.  Grin

i think any amout of bitcoin will be a wise investment for the future  Grin

You can create your own portfolio by keeping Bitcoin on long term and by trying to collect as much coins as you can. I.think Bitcoin is most profitable on long term. But once in a while it would be good to get a part of your coins on the market, with trading and investing so that you can grow them and keep circulating.

A good cryptocurrency portfolio would be Bitcoins, monero and litecoins. Bitcoins and litecoins have been running for a quite long time and have a stable market price and at the same time you'll find a lot of online as well as external vendors accepting Bitcoins and litecoins (very few accept litecoins). Monero is a new horse in the game and seeks to have more emphasis on security and privacy. I'm a total fan of its ring signatures concept. At the end of the day by distributing your income into 3 portfolios you're minimizing your risk and stabilizing your gains. It's be nice to invest in Bitcoin startups for a change and help them succeed to get dividends as returns if they provide any.

I think the only crypto you can trust is bitcoin. Other cryptos could get a good ROI in short time.. so if you want invest in a long term you can't trust anything.
See ZEC ... start with a literally explosion and now (if you have invested something) you have loss a lot of cash.
Speculate in short time with crypto is convenient, but in a long time there isn't anything you can use Sad.

Thanks for all the great answers so far.

Looking at your answers, I guess that the 21 BTCs number and then if we add 500 more ETHs on the side is a quite a high number. I must admit that I wasn't aware of that.

I am also quite far from this overall number. I have just passed a 10 BTCs on my complete crypto investment few weeks ago. I feel this is not bad as I am involved for about a year with crypto.

I might even reconsider my initial numbers of 21 and 500 and lower them a bit. Especially if the growth in price continues as it is growing this year. I wish Bitcoin was longer time in 200$ zone. This would make my investing much cheaper.

Than again it's not bad to set our goals really high sometimes, it makes us work harder to reach them! Smiley

Cheers everyone!
Well, I think that's good idea for the future and planned to do so but sometimes my friends influence or persuade me to sell my bitcoin just in case there is some problem like hacked and price fall down. But, if we think it clearly and trust on bitcoin future, holding is a good long term investment as the price constantly increasing every year.

i think holding might not the right choise you should need to trade it so that it can yeld a minimum amount of profit during time which is normally kind of risk taking and if you need to make it as your retirment plan the  you should make some more amount just in case of insurace of these investments

For a long term hold, you can just save bitcoin forget about ETH. I think better way is to keep playing with your crypto holding like day trading. It is quite risky however return is really nice and 25 bitcoin could be enough for you to earn atleast 10% weekly if you go good with trading.

Your Portfolio should not be static, but should adjust as the situation change. I have diversified my portfolio into several investments. Some of

it into physical gold and silver, because I think there will always be a market for that. I keep ZERO fiat, because I am about 100% sure it will

fail soon. Your future, should not be reliant on 3rd party services... holding your commodities and shares... You should be in control of your

own destiny.  Grin
