This question becomes even harder now.

My portfolio is totally dominated by BTC and ETH. XRP was starting to take a more significant chunk, but then came the SEC law suit and spoiled it.
Your portfolio is amazing, but for Altcoins it not only includes XRP, but it is still much better than XRP at the moment even though the ranking is clearly different, if you want you can add other Altcoins like Litecoin and Polkadot which are both also good Altcoins to be saved.
t's just that BTC and ETH are dominating even more due to the incredible performance last couple of weeks.

Here you can see my distribution https://altpocket.io/profile/Octular
BTC and ETH stands for ~70% but I have DOT, ADA, BNB Chainlink etc.

With the latest uptake in BTC and ETH prizes they are dominating my portfolio. XRP (which I've kept for a long time and thought about selling a lot of times) are now at last seeing a upswing.

Whats your take on XRP moving forward?

Btc is very good but I prefer ETH, I am 60% in ETH. I believe ETH Will bring more profit on the long run than btc, so i am in ETH 60% and the rest of my investment is in alts. Looking forward to add more ETH when the opportunity surface.

I'm i big ETH believer as well.
It will be interesting to see how ETH 2.0 will drive usage.

Another usual things with funds is saying that no individual holding can constitute more than X% of the portfolio but apart from that it's spread evenly distrbuted on the basis of market cap i.e. creating your own index of top 10 or top 15.

It takes some efforts to keep it in shape though. One would have to do continuous reallocations, but apart from that the index aspect is quite interesting.

How many percent do you keep in BTC versus altcoins?

Atm I have 35% BTC then a big chunk of ETH and a handfull of other altcoins (see distribution below)

BTC feels much safer at the same time as I see a big upside in the altcoins compared to historical levels.

I have held on to XRP for years. It's been one of the most boring investments of mine, but finally it's starting to take of.
I hope the payments initiatives will get a grip in the market, if that happends we're in for a ride.

Atm I have rougly 9% of my capital invested in XRP

I think it's hard to time the market perfect. I believe crypto long term will go up. I also think we are in the beginning of a bullrun, this was just some profit taking.

News are starting to spread in general media about crypto now, and with that comes FOMO.

I doubt Ripple will take BTC role. But I have to admit that there seems to be a lot happening with Ripple and payments rumors.
Remains to see where that takes it, I have a stake in it and are hoping for the glory days of ripple to return.

BTC and ETH remains my biggest positions.

I sell if I'm in profit and there's nothing wrong selling earlier if you're in +%.

And I hold if the coin that I've bought is still bleeding. Yes, there's nothing wrong to sell and hold until you see there's profit. That's the basic strategy that I do if the coin I hold and I believe is still bleeding and I'm in the lose, no problem of holding it.

I only lose if I sell with loss.

This make little sense to me. What matters is what you believe in the future for the project. If you are on plus or minus doesn't really matter.

I would rather say trend is your friend, unfortunately in both ways. Cut bad coins that are going down and find better projects with a bright future. Don't be afraid to cut losses.

Stick to top 10 or possibly top 15 coins. Maybe add a small flavor of smaller coins you believe in to get some extra spice to your portfolio.

I try to stick to the top 10-15 with some cherry picking. I have added small stakes in potential mooners

BNB VS Eth - Invest in ETH since BNB is centralized

Eth is soon launching its version 2.0 but the fact is that that many blockchains are based in ETH, ETH is open source and less centralized despite the fact that binance has a working product (its centralized exchange) and its lending and dex platform. While the deFi will make the ETH bigger as you need ETH to lend the deFi tokens. So it is time to make your investment in ETH instead of buying BNB tokens which may fail anytime.

invest in both altcoins will be better buddy,
centralized or not binance coin has a lot of potential to grow more in the future, especially with burning actions in this altcoin

Agree!
And diversification is good. Don't put all eggs in one basket.
Me myself I try to keep about 10 coins in my portfolio

My crypto portfolio is intact. Did some smaller realloations but kept the money in crypto.
Unfortunately I sold of some of my equity holdings in the dip that came in the beginning of covid, big mistake.

Re: BUY 32 ETH

It is not enough to just buy 32 ETH and you become validator, things are more complicated than that.

First, your ETH will be locked for period of 2 years,and that is not insignificant at all.That means that you wont be able to get it back in case you want to seel.Once you send it to special contract adress,thats it.
Next thing,you will need decent computer to be abelt o run the node. Here are the recommended specifications

Quote from: https://blockcast.cc/news/eth2-deposit-contract-released-how-to-pledge-your-eth-to-become-a-validator/
Operating system : 64-bit Linux, Mac OS X, Windows
Processor : Intel Core i7-4770 or AMD FX-8310 (or better)
Memory : 8GB RAM
Storage space : 100GB solid state drive free space
Internet connection : Broadband Internet connection (10 Mbps)
Power supply : Uninterruptible power supply (UPS)

As you can see, computer will have to have UPS or uninterruptible power source because you will have to be online 24/7, 365 days per year. If not, you will get fine that will be deducted from that 32 ETH you deposited.

So obviously to become validator you will have to meet some technical requirements so this wont be for everyone, but those whho decide to join will get average 15% profit per year,which is good incentive.

With all this being set,I hope there will be some public pools that we will be able to join,for those like me who dont have 32 ETH or dont want to bother with all the other stuff needed to become validator.






Won't there be staking pools ou can enter into in order not to have to put in 32 ETH?

Had no idea about th two year lockin. That's wy to long in the crypto space, things are happening to fast.

Why not buy BNB if you belive in the company?
I'm bullish ETH, but I also have astake in BNB because I think Binance is doing a fantastic job building good services.
