Don't even bother with it. There's a learning curve, where losses will occur. You have to spend too much time. The market will heat up again just having BTC, SOL, ETH.

6 months or so down the line, join in. Sure money better now.

I won't. Something to be said for Specialization.

Don't want to be: "Jack of All Trades, Master of None."

Told you my investment strategy:
1) BTC with light exposure to ETH/ADA/LTC.
2) Stock portfolio that is tilted toward Crypto/Metals. Remainder = balancing items like Index Funds.

That's why I don't mess with stocks, unless crypto related. Don't know much about them. Crypto and Real Estate is all I need.

People that use fiat currency as a store of value, there's a name for them. We call them poor.

Michael Saylor said this the other day.

Human nature doesn't change. Personally, holding a year to create a long term capital gain is enough time for me to dump the old stuff.

Also, taking a loss on some coins can help offset gains. A lot of people dump losses at the end of the year.

I think each coin should evaluated on its merits and whether it is worth a HODL or not. (duh)

Take staking. For example, I have CRO coming out my ears. I've been on the Crypto.com card for 4 years and haven't sold any of the CRO I've accumulated. And it's all being staked. Right now at this very moment, it earns $250/month in passive income. If the price of CRO doubles, so does the passive income. Same math if the price drops 50%. I'm not selling my CRO anytime soon.

So, what I've learned is that there's many ways to play in the crypto game... Lots of strategies out there...

Nice work with the CRO. We need it for the card, I made some purchases to get the card and will hold. But CRO is going to be an awful performer for us compared to others.

You're doing things in a smart way with staking and holding. The only people that lose are over traders and those trading on leverage. As you said, more than one way to skin a cat.

Things are changing, I believe. I used to think everything in the top 20 was worth a HODL. Now, it is more like everything in the top 50 or 60. As in a HODL for at least a cycle or two....

Still, i think if one wants to maximize their return, now is not the time to sell.... However, there is some sense in swapping into a better performer... Creating a taxable event (by dumping) always jacks with my thinking, here..

What I have learned so far this cycle is to rotate profits with all of the narratives. It was AI now its means next will be RWA (AI especially with the conference still has some legs) you want to try and be ahead of the narratives. You don't want to be late and be someone else's exit liquidity. Leave a moon bag in case the thing runs again but use your profits to make more profits.

**allabout the $$$** · 03-17-24, 04:43 AM

I also Want to add social media is your friend. For instance tonight Elon tweeted he would buy his best friends coin. Coins name was Jason. You could have literally made 25/50/100% literally in minutes. My dumb ass made 30% in literally 2 mins. Took my profits before the rumors it was a fake tweet started (that never happened and it kept running.

Yes, that will work. Going for the moonbag is always a good idea. (For those unaware - Moonbag is when you sell to get your initial investment back and the leftovers are your "moonbag", i.e., paid for).

The downside is you have to keep up with everything, market changes, what's hot/what's not, acquire 234 wallets etc. It can be time consuming but if that is what you enjoy doing, go for it.

The thing is, I'm not going to dismiss a bunch of top 50 coins early on just because they won't have a high multiplier. I'll take a 3x and be happy. If you want to chase high multipliers, you have to know when to get in and get out and be good at it....

My approach is a little lazier than that. Again, many ways to make profit in crypto. In a bull market, just about everything is going to be a winner - at least, for a period of time....

I think most all of us agree that BTC/ETH/Solana are definite long term holds. I just think there are others that qualify as HODL coins but for different reasons...

**raiders72001** · 03-17-24, 05:55 AM

Great points by both above. Arky does it perfectly for someone that isn't going to live and breathe it 24/7. That's why I told Chucky not to worry about chasing the small tokens

allabout does it almost exactly the same way that I do. We try to get ahead of the latest narrative. It's something that I really enjoy and like to do.

As far as JASON, I watched both JASON and SNAP flying today. I wasn't around as much today and didn't know why so missed on both. I didn't hear about the Musk tweet.

With moon bags, that's what I now have going with both CHAT and BOME. Took out investment and holding the rest.

**raiders72001** · 03-17-24, 06:20 AM

allabout -here's something that's been pretty good to me. I zoom out to a 7 day chart. Once the volume bar starts to rise as it does at .0056, there's a chance that a token is going to go on a run.

**raiders72001** · 03-17-24, 06:53 AM

Didn't like going under $65k but that didn't last long.

I will definitely look into that thank you

**allabout the $$$** · 03-17-24, 07:27 AM

Guys in this discord I am in uses prime chart I believe it gives off indicators as to when a coin is likely to run. I've made a decent amount when he posts it

Nice. I saw that clip.

One of the themes has been the Bitcoin maxis cracking on the news media.
...MSNB guys look startled when the price goes up.
...The discussion is getting better. But the Jim Cramer clips have to rate as best for Unintentional Comedy.

what J Powell says this week will affect Both stocks and bitcoin

**Lex_icon** · 03-17-24, 01:25 PM

People have been talking a lot about Pendle. I also checked out Ondo. Raiders mentioned Helium Mobile; I had bought a couple of weeks ago and got this latest pump. I also think this will be a crypto that can still rise a lot.

It's all about perspective. I am 100% on the same page as you. But also think if you have the time and motivation, gambling on alts is probably as much fun as sports gambling for lots of people, and if you are good/lucky, way more upside.

**raiders72001** · 03-17-24, 04:17 PM

Right now I'm only buying new things Solana or AI with an eye on things Avalanche.

Just Brett. You?

**biggie12** · 03-18-24, 04:13 PM

no. I havent really looked into it. Whats the best way to move SOL over to base?

Ninja on INJ is currently at 22million **. If it drops below 20 million i am going to move $5k of inj into it. It is the main Meme coin of INJ network. Has potential to hit 450-500 million.

Portalbridge. I have NINJA. I sold COQ and SNEK but may buy those back too. Might as well have them all.

How much more do they have in that fund?

I mean once it runs out, these dips should disappear....

They won't

**Arky** · 03-19-24, 07:41 AM

I get about a 16% dip so far. Total market cap went from 2.7T to 2.39T.

-----------------------------------

Those of you with Injective: I'm seeing a 13% APY for staking INJ in my Exodus wallet. Probably better places to stake than Exodus but 13% is a pretty healthy return....

Some old R & R for your listening pleasure..
