This is my allocation when I am investing in crypto for the long run.

Since I am a bitcoin hodler, I put most of my money into it. I put around half of my capital on it. 25% of my money will be going to the coin that is on the top 10 in market cap like ETH or EOS or XLM. 15% will go to the coins that are in top 11-50 in market cap and the remaining 10% will be going into the coins in top 51-100 in market cap.

What I buy depends on me but I'm holding ETN at this moment.

Very nice allocation of capital. I have a similar strategy and allocate according to the probability of benefit ratio that is allocate the maximum to the coins that can give away the most. And Bitcoin is the only coin that has been taking majority of my capital. ETH and ripple comes down in the list. They key to success here is to hold these assets for as long as possible for the addition of value in the long run is pretty much obvious.

Hi all,
the recent bloodbath pushed me to start investing in the crypto market. My current position is approx. 33% BTC/ETH/EOS. What would be your recommendation for a balanced crypto portfolio for the next 6-12 months?
Thanks!

You have a good coin in your wallet, and I think it's only waiting for the price to increase higher. But if you want to search another coin, then I guess you can choose the top twenty coinmarketcap, and I think you can find at least five coins so you can directly buy the coin. Maybe you can check ripple, cardano, xem, xlm, but the other coin has profitable too, so it's a bit difficult to determine the coin.

I am not sure of what 33% you are talking about but that pretty good rate of distribution for the BTC and ETH. Not sure about the EOS really. I would really suggest putting some extra in the BTC really because we are now in the Q4 of this year and as always bitcoin will start getting invested more and more as the year ends. This is proven fact by every last month of year and this is not new. SEC will at least approve few of the ETF for sure and thats why we must be ready for the profits that will be generated by the more investors that will be entering the market. More focus on BTC and less over the ALTS.

But is it really worth to invest in so many coins? Most coins move together with bitcoin, if bitcoin skyrockets other coins do the same and when bitcoin crashes the rest of the market follows, if what you are looking is to have good profits but you do not necessary want your investment to skyrocket you could invest everything in bitcoin and forget about your coins for years until it reaches the price in which you are ready to sell.

Bitcoin is the most simple choice in cryptocurrency investment. However, not everyone can wait for years. Some people really want to double their money as soon as possible. I don't really care about it. People comes here with different motives. In addition, one thing to be said, waiting is very boring. Moreover, we have to wait for years. Splitting investment is another option, and the way to earn profit.

Follow me when you buy and hold BTC and ETH will be good for you. I am confident that you will be profitable by the end of this year. But for EOS I'm not very good at it, so you should not put too much money on EOS.

XRP still has potential to continue bullish so its not late to buy it and hold a few month, and others crypto that can be promising high profit is ETH, ETC, XLM, BTC, WAVES, NANO, NEO, DASH, ZEC. Actually all mayor crypto will going up if bull market coming, and from historycal price of each crypto we can predict how high the price will go when ATH coming.

Investing on ethereum coins is also profitable because it was the second currency that has actually a very good potential in the market so you can also invest on this coin that has the chance to replace bitcoins in the future.

It's all up to people to decide what they will buy into and hold, but it's at least something to take into consideration.

I prefer that you have more coins in bitcoins more than altcoins because bitcoins price can skyrocket immediately while altcoins is always based on the developers marketing strategy or platform.

Pick the best 50 coins, and put 2% for each. Roughly.

That is terrible advice now you will need to watch 50 different coins and while some expert traders and investors can do that, that is not something your average investor should do, besides if your capital is small most of it is going to be eaten by the fees, if you want to do something like that at most you should invest 10% in 10 different coins.

I agree with you because 50 coins is too damn a headache and you'll just wake up one morning that you can't manage them all and because you can't, you didn't see that it already crashed. Just pick at least 5 that you think are good to have and with this you can focus all of them and see their movement. Having too many coins doesn't make you a real and good trader.

What it happens is that people have this romantic idea that in order to make money they need to watch the market all day and buy and sell coins like maniacs and most of the people that do that cannot maintain that lifestyle for long, not only because it is very stressing but also because it is very difficult to obtain profits that way, sometimes I have problems following all the news about bitcoin and I cannot imagine how difficult it will be to follow 49 additional coins.

For a newbie you already made a good decision.
I would recommend though to increase the amount with bitcoin. That is a sure shot there in my opinion unlike with EOS and Ethereum which have been fluctuating too much and we dont really know where it is coming from.

50/25/25 for me and I wont pick EOS. There is QTUM and AION which can gain more in just a year when all this red mark is over.

Actually investing in different kinds of investment is a great thing
becaue you can be able to become flexible and will not depend on the performance of just one investment only.

But is it really worth to invest in so many coins? Most coins move together with bitcoin, if bitcoin skyrockets other coins do the same and when bitcoin crashes the rest of the market follows, if what you are looking is to have good profits but you do not necessary want your investment to skyrocket you could invest everything in bitcoin and forget about your coins for years until it reaches the price in which you are ready to sell.

Actually you can invest a huge amount today, i mean you can focus all your capital into bitcoins or ethereum because the market is down to $5k dollars and you are guaranteed to earn a huge amount of profit when the market price goes back to normal.

100% ether.

Markets behave in irrational ways, for a while. Your mind has a little hamster that runs furiously on its wheel attempting to rationalize the irrational behavior that you observe. The rationalization hamster produces bizarre theories like, "Bitcoin is a terrific store of value,"

On top of that, the price is a mood altering drug, it affects your perception of reality. Bitcoin price has gone down, so it seems sexy and attractive right now. Earlier in the year ether went up in price a lot, so it seemed sexy and attractive then. A rising price is influencing you on a subconscious, instinctual level. It is sending you a message that the herd is moving in that direction, and since you are a herd animal, you want to move with the herd.

Actually, if you want to make a lot of money, figure out where the herd will be a few years from now and go there today. Disclaimer: You may be eaten by predators and/or fail to reproduce if you follow this strategy.

Good luck, and have fun.
