Beautiful day in sidney friend, the strategy about 80% and 20% is the best now when the bitcoin dominance is over 50% yes is low risk but it has to change in time when some other altcoin can pass btc. Regards

I recently gave a friend some advice on getting started in crypto. Luckily he bought after the recent drop. I said that it's probably best just to have BTC until the market starts to recover. I also made a pie chart for my holdings. I hardly have any BTC, as I always use it to buy alts that I'm interested in. A terrible strategy in the current market. I should follow my own advice and hold more BTC.

Your situation is my own as well. I am accumulating BTC now but I find myself inclined to sell it for alts almost everyday.

trying to catch the bottom is like trying to catch a falling knife my hands are pretty cut up but stay strong guys! No room for weak hands at this stage.

The best risk free portfolio crypto currencies to have are passive earning crypto currencies, because even when the market is down you can still earn free crypto and make money from your holding these coins. Which to me is the best crypto investment strategies

I love staking coins as well but as the video says safe investment comes in large part from ones confidence that your coins will thrive in coming years and many staking coins are not guaranteed to survive. Some sure. Not all.

Well for those who can afford to buy BTC, now is the time, then hold till a recovery comes. Alts like steem pose little risk if you're willing to work for it, but generally one has to be careful when choosing alts

This is a good setup but I would likely add some altcoins that have passive income potential like NEO and even Steem as they allow to get more by just holding the asset and/or participating in the protocol. Ethereum is looking concerning bow as they have fell back in its development due to delays. Scaling cannot wait in order to get the adoption needed.

Low risk portfolio: BTC 50% LTC 20% ETH 15% IOTA 15%. If you consider Gold you need some silver too😃.

Your main crypto investment should be definitely focused on bitcoin. As you mentioned recently, put money aside until you reach at least 1 BTC. Once you do, you may start investing in other cryptocurrencies such as some of top 10. Other than XRP, I like most of them. Of course, be involved in such a projects as Steem. Make comments, delegate, upvote, generate income...

Great series of video! looking forward to the upcoming ones!
I agree with the 80%/20% split for a conservative portfolio. Just wondering what altcoins you favor specifically. Maybe in the coming videos...
Personally for altcoins I like ETH, ADA, EOS and ZRX.
All the best!

wow. this really a great opportunity to does who can afford Btc. it's gonna be a great win win !

You have to much Bitcoin IMO. I would have totally agreed with you in 2015 about Bitcoin. Back the consensus was Bitcoin would just copy successful altcoin features but has it? Or will it in future? Just take for example how far the BTC dominance has dropped. Only 50% now at its peak when the longterm adoption of Bitcoin is waning. Early 2019 BTC will hit the lows of 2017 at 30%. Now is best time to switch BTC for ETH and other good alts. Dash for example, is more popular by far in Venezuela than BTC w/ up to 1/3 of Bitcoin merchants globally growing exponentially.

In my opinion BTC will end up like Myspace or at least with low market dominance by 2020.

hey Louis, do you know about Steemua? Check it out. Its a delegated steem project that aims to reward smaller steemians, your audience mught benefit from using it. Heck you might benefit.

Check it out.

sound advice particularly in a crypto bear market.

Once I saw this Bloomberg’s Report, it convinced me keeping All what I already have and keep adding bitcoin from now on only. This report is very convincing and pretty interesting. It predicts very bright future for bitcoin and XMR. Not so good future for EOS though.

What about STEEM? If you look at technological fundamentals and real-world adoption, then there's hardly anything that beats STEEM.

My main holdings are the top 10. Outside of that I am trying to focus on projects that provide some kind of return in the form of staking for example so at least I am trying to balance capital growth with income.

Another fact to consider is how many early startups were disrupted by 2nd and 3rd generation tech.

High value altcoins have been able to stand back and observe the flaws of Bitcoin and implement better features and new upcoming upgrades on a rapid scale.

For example, Netscape was the first browser in 96’, meanwhile the competition was looking for its flaws of which there were.

Nokia was the same. Same with AOL. In fact, it’s extremely rare to pioneering first mover tech ends up in domination.

Google is the another classical example.

Bitcoin will lose massive dominance next year as altcoins release the pieces lacking in Bitcoin.

The Bitcoin today will be nearly the same as Bitcoin in 2 years.

Problems with scaling, governance.

However, certain Altcoins in 2 years will be drastically different in performance and scale.

Current market conditions would suggest 100% btc position is advisable but I love my alts too much to throw away. Don't be an emotional investor!

I'm about 75% in BTC and is the only currency I'm actively increasing my holdings of thank god for coinbase instant uk bank transfers :)
