Holding is the only way for altcoin investors now unless you want to accept your losses and exit but its better to have patience, i have seen coins that worth 1,500$ a year ago and they are now 200$ , i have sold airdrop tokens that should worth 150$ for 10$ to sustain but i am not stupid enough to get rid of all my tokens and coins because market is not in my favour, be wise and remember that those tokens you are getting dispose off can turn something when market start turning for the better, be determined to win,when thinking forward always think backward as well.
It is sometimes better to sell your altcoins instead of holding it forever and beg for the price to increase. If you let it go, you open opportunities to invest on other well known coins which includes bitcoin, ETH, LTC etc. You might recover your loss if you sell your coins and invest on other coins.
Just holding it and making no profit at all is just a waste of time. And your suggestions are kinda absurd. Your tokens "may" turn into something but high chance it is going to stay low.
