The alternatives I think that would help is just to keep holding bitcoin or some other reputed altcoin, even as that i don't really encourage anyone to hold any coin that they don't trust on otherwise there could be a tendency to lose them big time because they aren't doing their proper research towards that coin/tokens. Holding shitcoin is not also means that is an alternatives but when solely relying on bitcoin to hold as alternatives also matters alot when trading doesn't favor someone.
I do agree that holding good ones will make you money. There are some people who are holding some tokens that very few people heard, and they have high hopes about them, I know that's not a good thing and will not end well for people. I think we should be considering this as not a good move, we need to make sure that things are going good enough and we should not be worried about it.
I understand that it is not that great, and I understand that it looks like a tough deal but if you could just hold bitcoin, or eth, or even bnb, that would be a lot better during this period and could give you good income. All those other alts that look risky are not good enough to hold right now and I think we shouldn't really be looking at this all that terribly, it could do fine.
