Mid-way though Bitcoin's 2017 bull-run, Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange at the time, only offered the choice of three coins - BTC, ETH & LTC - before Binance even existed. Ethereum and Litecoin outperformed Bitcoin that year, especially after many new users saw their values had already increased much more than Bitcoin had, while only being given 3 investment choices.
Since May 2021 altcoin's market share has been around 60% of the total crypto market, confirming that the majority of investors are drawn towards altcoins rather than Bitcoin these days. Coinbase now has over 100 different altcoins, while the largest exchange now offers a choice of over 400 options. The days of turning to shady exchanges like Bittrex, Yobit and Cryptopia have long since passed.
But what is your reason for buying and holding these coins? What type of profits (fiat/btc/eth/other) are you hoping to achieve and have you already taken profits?
Do you genuinely believe any of your altcoins can genuinely surpass Bitcoin or Ethereum's market values in near future?
I prefer to buy altcoins because I prefer to do day trading rather than HOLD coins. Indeed, this sounds a little strange, yes, but I am still learning to control my emotions well, therefore I am not too brave to take steps for HOLD. Indeed, many say that the benefits of HOLD will be much more, therefore I will study more deeply. So far, the profits I get from daily trading have met my needs and even more than enough. Moreover, I get them in the near term so that when there is an urgent need, I don't have to worry about making money.
