If we can not profit Altcoin is actually not Altcoin to blame but we ourselves choose Altcoin wrong and do not understand the chart, Altcoin's future is very good if we know how to trade.
And... can you tell us "how to trade"?
I think most people here are giving abstract and wishful answers instead of real replies. In fact, most people don´t really know what they are saying.
It is a FACT that 95% of altcoins have been created by kids/youngsters to try to make some money (pump/dump) and try to sell them as any kind of revolution....that will never come (since 90% of the projects are quite similar and don´t offer any advantages).
And these people that created altcoins are waiting to fool others into investing in their coins to at least make some profits (that is why we can see some altcoins 40% up one day, waiting until new fools put their money in, and then sell them...with Little profits).
I think even bitcoin is doomed (since big investors are using algo trading with bots). So, imagine the rest. Some will pump a 40% (auto-pump) to get attention of fools, and then they will sell...and that will be all. Check the charts of the first 50 coins (98% of them have the same chart than bitcoin).
