I found lot of traders who bought a special coin from many exchange site. Then few months they go for sleep and wake up after 5 years. So now what about your trade?
i trade using coins i earn from bounties , i don't buy coins i usually do join lot of bounties , more bounties more coin ,that the way i trade i guess.
Special coin is token issued from exchange site. Next exchange, etherdelta, kucoin, binance, and some other decentralized exchange site have their tokens and you can invest in them like you invest in anything else. Will you trade with them or hold for a years its up to you, everyone have different strategy.
I have some exchange tokens and I hold them, fluctuations they have are not so big for day trading, but for holding I think they are great.
