Why am I not seeing the best choices in crypto? I am not saying your choices are bad choices. They are all good and they all seem to have a bright future but I think if you have to choose which crypto investments are the best you should start with Bitcoin and then Ethereum next. Only after picking this two should you consider other choices such as Waves, Litecoin, ADA, etc.
I believe some people prefer to invest into "riskier" cryptos that would bring in a lot more profit in the long term instead of investing into coins that would be making them less money. I get that it is not ideal for people like you and me, I would never consider a portfolio without ethereum as a whole, I need ETH in my portfolio for sure, however I also understand some people who do not do it.
The logic is that, these are not "bad" coins, but these are not the "best" coins neither, which means these could make 10x faster than bitcoin and ethereum can, not that they "will" but they "can" and that is the attraction towards them, it allows people to actually have a fighting chance to make a good living out of this if they are right, and if they are wrong they are putting themselves in a risk that would be equal to investing into many other things. So this is just our version but riskier.
