My 5 Highest Conviction Cryptocurrencies

Forget "5 cheap, hot altcoins" or "5 Crypto Ready to Moon". Let's talk about the five cryptocurrencies that I have the highest degree of conviction in and why I like these cryptoassets in the long-term. When I say conviction, I mean that I truly believe in for the long-term, not just for short term price fluctuations.

Here are my top five crypto of highest conviction:


Bitcoin
0x
Ethereum
ZCash/Monero
Basic Attention Token

.. STEEM could certainly be thought of as an alternative to BAT at #5

What are yours and why?

Also, we'll discuss how to emotionally deal with your crypto portfolio growing significantly and my thoughts on the BitGrail/XRB/Nano hack (or insolvency).

Sort:  

BAT has not shown promise as it should so I think you can replace BAT with steem.

As steem is getting good attention and everyday more users are coming to this platform. So practical application of steem is way much more than BAT

Does the Brave browser only use BAT? Might they use another currency like Steem?

I don't fully agree with you that BAT hasn't shown any promise. I'm not a homer for BAT by any means, but have you used the browser at all? If not, I'd recommend checking it out.

Along with Steem, the Brave Browser/BAT is one of the few products really functioning as intended.

  1. BTC - It’s the OG and got to have some of that!
  2. XRP - I’m a financier at heart and the bankers coins is very appealing!
  3. EOS - I like the governance model that’s being set up!
  4. ADA - A hedge against EOS. (One of the 2 are going to crush it)
  5. STEEM - DPOS & Inflationary to self fund the community!

I am all in on EOS, big believer in Dan Larimer, check out a new project i just put up at https://hubwallet.io if you're looking for a quick and easy way to track your crypto investments

My picks (not in order):

1.- ETH: no stopping them as lead in ICOs and Dapps in the short run
2.- LTC: the payment alternative as Charlie Lee and the foundation continue to focus on increased adoption and scaling
3.- BTC: will remain king and determine the market direction
4.- Dash: Lots of work being done focusing on technology and adoption, not marketing.
5.- STEEM: I’ve been hooked since discovering the platform and am amazed of the potential the blockchain technology could do with this community approach

Nice list, I can dig it for sure!

Glad to see you at least gave STEEM some love In The description. Very solid List as usual my friend, been following you for quite some time now. BAT is a major sleeper… If they can execute and achieve adoption it is a home run!

Good list. I need more 0x and BAT.

It would be nice to hear your reasoning behind each one. Thanks.

I built it myself, so please let me know if you have any feedback or questions.

Thank you!

Here's how I'm leaning at the moment:

  • Bitcoin: I really view it as the gateway drug into crypto, it's what everyone knows about and is probably the easiest one to convert fiat into currently.
  • Ethereum: It's way too engrained in the crypto space to die, so many projects are built off of it.
  • Cardano: I love the technology and the way they've updated their road-map and are regularly active on GitHub gives me confidence that great things are coming.
  • Steem: I love that some cool platforms such as steemit are built off of it but I have to say free and super fast transactions take the cake for me here.
  • Monero: I'm certainly open for debate but from what I can tell Monero is the leader of the privacy coins. I think if someone is going to use the a privacy coin for privacy (not just investing) that they'll always choose the most secure option which I believe at this time is Monero.

Keep this up, Followed you for more :)

My List:

  1. ETH- long-term the dominant currency by use/marketcap
  2. Monero- Private transactions, underground economy
  3. Steem- Blog/Forum/Vlog platform

Notice no store of value coin ... only ones with strong use case.

The fact that Monero mining in webbrowsers is a huge problem right now, by cryptojacking, is part of the reason I picked it as #2. That and the fact that it is widely used in the darkweb.
