Thanks a lot for your comment.
I hold a proportion of my portfolio as long term investments. Mostly ERC20 tokens that will hopefully pay some sort of return eventually (like GNT, REP, but loads more). This is unlike mined 'currency' coins such as bitcoin, etc which won't pay out any return but where you hope to gain value through adoption and functioning as an actual currency.
The other part of my portfolio is for trading only. So I'll buy BTC/ETH/ or any of coin when I think it's going to rise, and sell when I think it may have reached a top. (Of course, about half the time I'm wrong...but that's the objective! ;) )
But what's my favourite digital asset right now, and biggest investment: that would be steem power :) Why? Well, it's fun to have a good holding as it gives you a nice influence/power in the system (of course!)..which something like BTC does not provide! ;). Secondly, since I've actually been using steemit for the last few weeks I'm pretty amazed at the return. A nice percentage increase ..... and all I have to is click on the upvote button, and possibly make a few silly posts ;). Nice way to earn an income I'd say (provided the value doesn't completely tank!) :D
Looks like you've got all your bases covered then with both longer and shorter positions.
Yeah, it is super fun.....and of course addictive....in a fun/obsessive kind of way :) This whole steemit thing to some degree reminds me of a game where I'm not actually thinking of taking any money out...I just wanna convert it all to steem power to keep getting more of it....lol. That's why I don't think this system will ultimately fail....I think this is more addictive than Facebook, but in a good way that can give you a return on your investment.
I never thought about becoming a blogger before...until steemit of course....and now I'm like...all in and blogging about just anything I can think of that would be valuable. It's funny how just a little reward system like that can be so motivating...lol. Anyways, steem on and I'm sure I'll be chatting with you again at some time in the near future on future posts :)
Love your comments.
And it's great to hear from another 'believer' in the investment aspect. Sometimes I do wonder myself though if the whole thing actually makes sense (I.e., are the payments sustainable/will they be enough/etc)! I guess no one really knows - it's a complete new and original experiment! But anyway, I'm pretty much fully committed now :)
And actually, I'm the opposite of a social media person, so it's completely weird for me...in fact I'm a bit exhausted with a few weeks of it :-) Still, I keep coming back now to see what's happening! Primarily I was into it for the tech and investment opportunity ... anyway, I'm trying to lean how to approach the social aspect in in some sort of vaguely sane way if possible :)
Best wishes :)
