RE: Cryptocoin & Token Picks for 2018 - Which coins and tokens should you invest in for the coming year?

in #busy7 years ago

@noly I don't entirely agree on your first choice. Whilst you are right, it's the 'posterchild' of the Crypto's its most certainly not stable. In fact it is highly volatile! Just because it is being picked up by mainstream media, doesn't mean others can't and won't take it's place.
I'm not knocking it. In fact I'm actually a fan of Bitcoin. I just feel that there are others, that will bring you greater returns for a much lower cost.

I put together a weekly show called Crypto Nights & I'm looking at bringing on guests to hear their thoughts on such topics as the one you've written. Would love to have you on the show. Check out episode 9 which has just been uploaded and then get back to me with your thoughts. If you wish, drop me an email at [email protected]

Yes, it is volatile in terms of price fluctuations throughout the years. But, by stable I mostly meant it has been stable in terms of increasing in value overall. As it is a finite currency, I can only see the price of BTC continuing to increase thus being the safest place to put your money. Especially if you're newer to the crypto game. And of course there are other crypto's that will bring higher yields. But, they also come with a lot more risk. I stated pretty much this in my post. I had BTC at #1 not because it will bring you the most money, but because I believe it to be the safest investment that will earn you some money.

Also, I do agree that another currency could take it's place. But, in the next year? Highly highly doubtful considering it's market cap, value, and popularity. The exposure from the media easily makes it the most well known crypto. So, it's popularity will continue to increase as the cryptocurrency market popularity continues to increase overall.

As for your show, I'm interested. I'll send you an e-mail and if you could reply and let me know exactly what we will be talking about, I'm definitely interested. I'd just like an idea of the format and topics so I can get ready for it.

Thank you for the upvote and follow as well! I will check out your content and give you a follow as well!

I understand where you are coming from, but I wouldn't say it's Bitcoin is 'stable'. It's still within its infancy and highly volatile. To view that, simply look at a graph. Every couple of weeks it increases in value and then suddenly drops 25-30%.
If I was new to the Crypto Game I'd want to look at what will bring me the best return for the lowest cost in the shortest amount of time possible. I don't think Bitcoin offers this.
P.S.Responded.

Just sent you an e-mail by the way. Waiting on your response.
