    Top 5 Altcoins you gonna hodl?

    Not a typo in the title.......google it, interesting read.
    -
    This topic is not a real original thread, saw it elsewhere; but it’s an interesting read. And when I say altcoin, let’s go with anything NOT on Coinbase........those are kinda givens.
    -
    Im no expert; just doing lots of research and trying to find coins that could change the ‘space’. Lotsa questionable vs. credible reads out there on all the coins too.
    -
    Im hanging onto:
    -
    -Ripple (XRP)
    -Tron (TRX)
    -Cardano (ADA)
    -Dash (DASH)
    -Monero (XMR)

    I might be looking at setting up a different brokerage because Gdax/coinbase is really pissing me off. But no matter which coin I buy, I won't hold for very long.

    FWIW Poloniex works well. I do still use Coinbase to buy and send in and / or cash out. Wanted to use Bittrex but their new accounts are suspended for now. Oh and BTW Poloniex doesn't have an app.... They even have a warning message on the exchange stating this.

    Coinigy is good too but w/ a fee after 30 days. It's a reasonable fee for what all they do pulling in all exchanges under one umbrella.

    not nervous at all..............i just view the dips as a fire sale...............keeping my good eye on when it looks to be at it's lowest to buy more. averaging out my total purchases to the lowest possible.

    My dark horse is FCT. (Factom)

    With grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and the US Department of Homeland Security, along with NDA's with Fortune 500 companies... I believe they are the real deal when it comes to long term. The use case for Factom is huge.

    Playkey and aelf. I believe playkey will rise. It's gaming and tech people love gaming plus it gives the ability for slower machines to run high power games. That means gaming companies can make better games and more people can use them. Not on a big exchange yet though.

    I want you guys and everyone here to understand something when doing "research" on these coins. There is a good chance that everything you read regarding these coins and what they do or who is invested in them, could very well be total BS. Understand that there are people out there who lie. They will make counterfeit websites that look legitimate to publish BS reports. I know, I have been burned in the past. Question everything.

    good advice there..........some of the info online can really have a sly agenda........tough to differentiate; that’s for sure.

    So true ! But this also gives everyone to question what each are doing and why..if someone said that coin is not going anywhere I'd sure like them to say why.. this also helps the new guys start looking at alts in a different way than just I heard iton the news or my buddy said so

    That's not being a sucker. I will tell you a sure way to lose some money. Start trying to hit highs and lows throughout the day. That little bit I made on dash the other day I blew yesterday trying that junk. Buy and hold and put in a sell order at a profit you want on the smaller alts. I'm in on dash u til it goes back to 1500.
