There are a lot of Altcoins, any year is a good year for an Altcoin that was pumped or just really got a promising future.
Naming a Thread "2018 is a great year for Altcoins" is pure nonsense, there are tens of thousands of altcoins around.
At least name the Specific Altcoin that will become profitable this year.
One thing you must learn is: These unregulated non-legit exchanges dictates the price of an altcoin.
Those are susceptible to manipulators like Pump&Dump Groups or Whales
Even Bitcoin's price can be manipulated.
But one thing is for sure, Either XMR or ETH will rise this first quarter of the year.
Well actually I really heard a lot of speculation saying that this year is for altcoin. And you can really see itvin the first 3week of the year. That really ripple and ethereum are pumping in the market while the bitcoin are just moving around $16,000-$18,000. It cant moved higher than that unlike last year it continue to move up. So I think the speculation that they are saying will be come true.
