My choice is long-term investments. If you deal with the cryptocurrencies that come in top-20, you will not make any mistake when holding them for a long time. I case with a day trading you can lose.
Short term investment is the name of short and sometimes quite quick return. That's it. Nothing else. A long term investment refers to a life time investment and the payoff of such an investment is very good in terms of both monetary benefits and services.
