ADA

I wonder what the venn diagram of the coin bureau faithful and ADA holders are Because Coin Bureau relentlessly shilled ADA on Twitter when I followed him.

Hi, while I also recommend to invest in BTC, ETH, ADA regularly, my best choice would be WeFi (future of Banking Defi - credit card already operational).They planned a constant growth, and you can even make better long term investment mining the WeFi token at low price (just buying ITO). We are potentially at the end of this cycle for BTC, and the strategy of WeFi makes it very resilient even during this type of phase. If you have questions, happy to help. https://preview.redd.it/uitpis5asd3g1.jpeg?width=2622&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51248d14dee3343a422bc31f54eb48ff83093a56

This just reminded me I have a bag of ADA staked somewhere in a wallet since about time when there was an ADA based exchange similar to ice cream of something created. I guess that bag is not worth much anymore, is it :D?

I find the timing of this story weird. Maybe it's a coincidence, but just days prior to this, all of the attention was on Cardano's stable coins depegging, which reignited discussion and fingerpointing over the fact that Emergo and Cardano Foundation still haven't gotten USDC or USDT on Cardano. Charles said in a tweet that he's not responsible for getting a stablecoin on Cardano, and says it's the Foundations job. Then this exploit happens and all entities supposedly come together for the chain and its holders, which I guess eased concerns that they're incapable of working together. Hooray. Maybe \*\*this\*\* \*\*time\*\* they're serious on getting things done? No need to talk about stablecoins, guys! Look what Cardano just did! Just ignore that ADA is way lower than 2017/2018 peak! The whole thing is weird to me.

Why is Cardano price not getting nuked on this? ADA holders must be cultists.

So ADA is centralised, if they can just patch it and merge the chains?

tldr; On November 21, 2025, the Cardano blockchain experienced a split due to a malformed transaction caused by a fault in its core software library. This led to the creation of two separate chains, though user funds were unaffected. The incident was traced to a staking pool operator, Homer J., who admitted to testing a faulty transaction out of curiosity. Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson labeled it a premeditated attack, and the FBI is reportedly involved in the investigation. Despite the disruption, ADA prices remained largely unaffected. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

tldr; Cardano's blockchain split into two chains on Nov. 21 due to a malformed transaction exploiting a bug from 2022. Emergency patches were deployed within hours, and the network stabilized by Nov. 22. A developer admitted responsibility, citing reliance on AI instructions during testing. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson involved the FBI, calling the incident a 'premeditated attack.' The event caused ADA's price to drop 16%. An IOG employee resigned, expressing concerns over legal risks for development mistakes. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

ADA was seen as one of THE blue-chip Cryptos in 2021 competing with SOL and ETH even with their hype. Now its just nowhere...

MusaRilban

Ergo is one of those projects that will either explode or die, no middle ground. Founded by the same guy who made LINK. It's got zk proofs, it's eUTXO like BTC, proof of work, a great mixer, true fixed supply (coins that don't get used for years get redistributed to miners as fees, it's the only crypto with a true fixed supply so figure can't go up or down - BTC and others ultimately trend towards 0 as coins are lost). Smart contracts, DeFi, not on any tier 1 exchanges. The devs just non-stop build. I think it's pumping rn because of BTC Runes. The Rosen Bridge team (a bridge on Erg to BTC/ADA/ETH/BNB/DOGE) have just introduced BTC Runes+ which essentially lets you turn BTC into a playground for custom tokens. There's so, so much more. It's honestly a hidden gem waiting to rip your face off.

Billy_Bowleg

Dang. Any confidence in ADA security just vanished. Death blow inflicted

Pristine_Kangaroo527

XRP is flailing. It’s got a big following like ADA that don’t know when to quit. DOGE is one of the dumbest coins ever. No utility, and younger generations will laugh at GenZ/Millennial love for it like GenZ/Millenniaks laugh at some boomer stuff.

This comment was a good thought on crypto BTC eventually will recover. There is nothing that guarantees it, but it has always recovered eventually and if you follow crypto crypto both fundamentally and as a market, you get the general ideia that in the long run, BTC will be higher. That is not the same for alts though. Most alts created that lasted in 2017 has good projects and made all time highs in 2021. They didnt recover at all in 2025. We had 3.5 bucks ADA, 50 DOT, 5 FTM, etc etc, and they never got any close on making new all time highs. You can now only hope to time and trade them, you can never count on them as investments again. Even ETH disaponted. Touched previous ATH and is now wrecked again. Only BTC decisively surpassed previous ATHs and held. For now

Sandharbor

Seems funny asf honestly. Out of most memes I can see people relating to the humor. Market cap is already too big though to make small money turn big, but I’d rather buy this shit than ADA or ALGO lol 

coffeesip12

You forgot ADA.

I think ADA, XRP, and Mog coin will be fine. Seems like as soon as this drop everyone claims the sky is falling like this hasn't happened before.

ubermensch1001

I don't think we are going into a bear market like everyone is expecting. I still am holding to my thesis of this going into next year given the variables I mentioned. I've added a bit to my positions since the October 10th crash but nothing crazy. The only thing I'm holding from last cycle is BTC, I also added more aggressively to this the 2nd half of 2022. and a little here and there along the way. This is more my long term hold, so I don't obsess too much about this. My main alt pick for this cycle was ADA, I bought it up aggressively in 2023 and 2024 and added during the lows of this year, my average is under 40 cents. It's been a relevant alt for a couple cycles now, was/is well off from it's highs of 2021 and I really like the staking with it. ETH is another one for me. I had some of this last cycle but exited that quite a while ago when it was still trading strong compared to BTC, so I converted it over into that. Most of this cycle it really wasn't worth touching in my opinion. Even in early 2024 it was still trading above .05 to BTC. However, I bought some back in April when it was at cycle lows at under .02 to BTC AND at $1400. At this point, I'm already well positioned and not all that worried.

Altruistic_Split9447

Who cares it’s ADA

Django_McFly

Even then it's an if. A lot of people making these posts, they aren't holding stuff that's set new highs every cycle. They're in like ALGO, INJ, AVAX, NEM, FTM, ADA, XNO, EOS just like the most ultimate dog shit of dog shit. Like right now could literally be the best price they'll ever see going forward.

“You guys” is hella cope. ADA can be shit and so can 99% of the rest of them.

ADA is a cult that will never question their investment

VIXtrade

You're not wrong about the growth in stablecoin market cap and transactions. Major financial institutions and governments are very interested in this trend. \>Could the current dive in value of BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA be linked to institutions timing the market and exiting ? does smart money unload their bags onto dumb money at the peak of the cycle? \> whats left to hope for in crypto? It kind of depends what your goals are. Want to see widespread mainstream adoption of blockchain technology? Its coming, but likely not the way you're hoping for. Hope to see BTC reach 1 million? Don't hold your breath. Hope to see the crypto market cap recover to 4.27 Trillion? Could take a year , 5 years, or never happen. Nobody knows. Maybe the crypto market stops crashing soon, rips higher for a short time before crashing further.

Nothing happened dude. All ADA are safe. This could happen to every chain. In my opinion it's a good sign that this attack was not able to damage the chain at all.

Why would they continue to run a poisoned fork? It wouldn't be in their interest to do so unless they had a massive stake, and Stake Pools are limited to a saturation limit of around 75m ADA.

Just to clarify, ISO20022 is not a blockchain protocol or consensus mechanism, it’s a messaging standard. [https://youtu.be/hdLjIVlA\_DA?si=hZPNstwmL7cAR0J8&t=1410](https://youtu.be/hdLjIVlA_DA?si=hZPNstwmL7cAR0J8&t=1410) Chainlink worked directly with swift on ISO20022 to include blockchain components to it and sections of the standard related to blockchain. This means chainlink has infrastructure (CRE) that can listen to iso20022 messages sent via Swift and can then trigger on chain actions, [seen here](https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/09/30/chainlink-ubs-advance-usd100t-fund-industry-tokenization-via-swift-workflow). *"In a pilot with UBS, Chainlink’s Runtime Environment (CRE) processed subscriptions and redemptions for a tokenized fund using ISO 20022 messages, the international standard for financial messaging used by Swift."* So what does means for your shitcoin that claims to be iso20022 compliant? Well being “iso20022 compliant” just means that a system can format messages in a way consistent with that standard. It doesn't give you access to Swift or guarantee interoperability with Chainlink’s infrastructure. And what does this mean for chainlink? Well, it positions Chainlink as the backbone for bridging traditional finance (banks + Swift) with on chain tokenized assets in a standard compliant way. Heres the fake ISO20022 list: * **XRP** * **Stellar (XLM)** \- [Adopted Chainlink CCIP](https://stellar.org/blog/foundation-news/stellar-to-join-chainlink-scale-and-adopt-data-feeds-data-streams-and-ccip-to-power-next-gen-defi-applications) * **IOTA (MIOTA)** * **Algorand (ALGO)** * **Quant (QNT)** * **Hedera (HBAR)** [Adopted Chainlink CCIP](https://hedera.com/blog/hedera-adopts-chainlink-standard-for-cross-chain-interoperability-to-accelerate-ecosystem-adoption) * **XDC Network (XDC)** [Cant find an article, but they claim here they integrated CCIP](https://youtu.be/4j12gnCSegU?si=5cfudjXgccIBxKqn) * **Cardano (ADA)**

Gold_Alfalfa5077

Honestly. Nobody really knows. I don’t subscribe to buy and hold with crypto because it has no intrinsic value. I do buy on the dips of 8% and above weekly and then in 2-3 weeks sell at a profit of 15-20% gains for the week. Since May I've more than tripled my initial investment of $5000 doing this on XRP, DOGE, HBAR, TRON, and ADA. Robinhood and Kraken (I'm sure others do too) make this easy to set buy and sell limit orders so you don't have to constantly watch it. I've bought $12k of the above this week and because the losses have been so great, I've raised my "sell" percentage to +15% on $8k and +25% on the remaining $4k as the top 10 players are off over 30% average on their all time high. So even if I miss the mark on my 25% I'll still make excellent returns on my 15% targets. The key is being patient, don't panic and don't get greedy on your expected returns...8-10% return in a 30 day period is 96-120% annual return rate!

trevorturtle

XMR will def recover. ADA? XRP? Maybe

baIIern

>Main cryptos (BTC, ETH, XRP, ADA, etc) will certainly recover from this bear market I bet people said that about NEO, NEM or whatever coins we had in 2017

Volgrand

Okay, I was in the same situation some years ago. SO first question is: DO YOU NEED THIS MONEY RIGHT NOW?If the answer is "Yes": Sell now, and stop losing. It sucks, but if you need the money, accept your loses and carry on. Let's say you DON'T need the money right now. What to do? **HOLD.** I'm not a guy of "hodl" no matter what. Let me explain: Back in 2021 BTC reached 65k give or take. I sold, made profits. OH YEAH!. Then it dipped to roughly 60K, I bought again thinking (among other coins) thinking prices would keep rising... And well, they crashed. My wallets were at -80% benefit. So I decided to let it be. At the end of 2024 I started seeing some greens in my profits. And just a few months ago I sold to stablecoins, recovering my whole investment and getting profits. **SO WHAT'S MY ADVISE?** Well, I moved away from ALTs long ago. They are like chasing a golden goose. Main cryptos (BTC, ETH, XRP, ADA, etc) will certainly recover from this bear market, but it may take time. You need the money? Sell now and don't lose more. You don't need the money right now? Wait. It may recover. Or not. **Never invest money you can't afford to lose!**

What I think vis-a-vis the market is quite irrelevant. There is too many variable and explanations to those variable for me to answer you on a reddit post. As far as your holdings, I wouldn’t worry about ETH, LINK, ADA and HBAR. I would clear PEPE the coin. What value did you see in this meme frog? We still have 10 days before we get a better understanding of whats next. Hopefully it doesn’t close under 82k and If it does, take that PEPE loss and roll it back into something solid.

Kage_noir

You dont lose if you dont sell. I dont know about ADA,link and PEPE. But I know HBAR had a good pump this year? Did you not TP? Eth also hit ATH, did you not tp? ETH is likely to recover, it just a matter of time, they always do. People often panic sell and then watch it later. It is likely you need to know when to TP. But I can't advise you on what to do specifically. Only think I can say, which might not be helpful, dont invest money you cant afford to lose. This is a good lesson going forward on your trading career

Maleficent-Bill5516

hey there, if you already have BTC and ETH on your list, you could look at steady long-term picks like SOL, ADA, or LINK since they all have real use cases and aren’t just hype. You can grab any of them through Jumper Exchange and then just hold and see how they play out over the next few years.

MtGloomy0420

$SOL, $HBAR, $ADA, $XRP, and recently $LPT for two reasons - 16.30% staking bonus on [Binance.US](http://Binance.US) so I'll gladly take $.16/$1 invested and it's the "peer to peer video encoding" service. If AI really is going to be the future, datacenters can't get built fast enough, there isn't enough power to actually pull all this off, $BTC miners are pivoting to HPC datacenters (companies like $MIGI and $HIVE), so sure... I'll throw a few hundred on the concept that we can create out own video encoding service that is fair to video publishers and not controlled by a few large tech companies.

Okay, so what's the use case? How is this utilised? Where is the adoption? What's the incentive to build on ADA when there are better options?

Still HODLing tho, cause I bought way lower than these prices. Also holding SOL, AIOZ, ADA, & XRP. Thank goodness I'm not from a country that taxes cryptos as well.

MakCapital

If it's not Bitcoin it should only be the networks people actually issue on and trade on. That's Hyperliquid & Solana. Could argue Ethereum, but makes more sense after it scales or monetizes L2s. That's it. Literally no one uses Cardano. It runs 1tps max. A ghost town even after all these years of pushing for adoption. Solana can execute more trades in a couple days than Cardano has seen in its entire existence. Solana & Hyperliquid returned billions to investors this cycle. Cardano returned nearly 0. Doge is a meme, but at least it doesn't pretend to be anything else. Memes trend to 0 against BTC. Always. Don't understand how crypto buyers are still so lost. There's only one Bitcoin. The only L1 that gets a rev exception. Everything else you're buying better be the place everyone issues and trades on. That activity can be monetized. Nearly 2 decades of proof any coin without activity eventually trends to 0 against BTC. Need value producing assets, but doesn't mean some won't see massive meme pumps along the way. Eventually the meme pump ponzi game fizzles. This does not make a good investment. Use prediction markets or perps if you're here to gamble. Coins & tokens just represent ownership over something else. Just like a stock represents ownership over a company. SOL, HYPE, ADA represent ownership over those networks. Don't own things no one uses. Same applies to tokens. USDC is ownership over fiat. JLP is ownership over an index. Nvdax token is ownership over Nvidia. Protocol tokens are ownership over the protocol (with no regulatory guarantees if admin keys are still in play). Understand what you own when you buy any token or coin. Make sure people actually use that thing you own or there's no way to capture value from it.

This is total bullshit.* Since Stablecoins are now 10% of Total Crypto Marketcap, if BTC and Alts all fall at the same rate, it's going to show BTC dominance as falling. *BTC True Dominance (excluding Stablecoins) is still over 65%.* It's not falling. But looking further into this, *BTC True Dominance over the entire Alt Market is really not that interesting because it just continues to go up since most smaller Alts are dead* -- the investors just don't know it yet. This includes the mid-sized crytos like the Cuckdanos, ScamLinks, Hedera Hash Trashes, PolkaDumps, AlgoScams, etc. BTC and Crypto liquidity mostly seems to flow between the top Alts. It's hard to get data on this but it appears that real the money/liquidity flows mostly between the BTC and among the top 4 Alts. So looking at this, BTC Dominance over the Top 5 is actually up since 10/6/2025 when BTC was at $125K; is slightly down from 1-year ago and up ~12% from 4 years ago. TLDR; - BTC Dominance metrics are bullshit - BTC True Dominance is still 65% and hasn't fallen - Most Shitcoins are dead - Most of the Crypto liquidity is flowing between the top 5 coins and BTC Dominance over the TOP-5 is still holding steady and growing long term. *NOTE: When I say most smaller Alts are dead, I not including, XMR and TRON, which have some of the lowest correlation to BTC and appreciate/depreciate a bit differently.*

ADA never really recovered from the last bear. The baseline is way lower now than in 2021. 0.02 might be extreme, but sub 0.10 isn’t unrealistic at all.

perceptual01

If FTX, 3arrows and Celsius collapsing didn’t send ADA to .02… I can’t imagine this will lol

Buydipstothemoon

I started selling some ADA from 2001. I am bearish AF.

ADA cultists will come and do mental gymnastic saying stablecoin is nasty and it's actually a good thing that there's no USDT/USDC in Cardano's blockchain

ADA is -32% from where it was in December 2017, 8 years ago.

It was obvious Altseasons were coming to an end. Every subsequent "cycle" BTC had diminished returns and Alt gains were more muted. In 2021, we didn't even have a broad Altseason. 2024/25 it was obvious that with BTC diminishing returns, Institutional involvement and ETFs that most Alts would be decimated. The total Alt marketcap has shrunk -40% since November 2021 and nobody knows where the money for Alts will come from since they can no longer depend on leeching off BTC. **2013** Weekly Alt Performance as BTC pushes towards $1K - LTC 150% - XRP 300% - Peercoin 270% - Namecoin 620% - Primecoin 670% - Novacoin 335% - Megacoin 1,400% https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20131126/ **2017** Weekly Alt Performance as BTC pushes towards $20K - ETH 60% - BCH 50% - XRP 200% - LTC 63% - ADA 340% https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20171218/ **2021** Weekly Alt Performance as BTC pushes towards $70K - ETH 11% - BNB 18% - SOL 22% - ADA 8% - XRP 18% https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20211108/

Actually extremely bearish for ADA. There's a ton of ADA sitting in Japanese early investor wallets because of high crypto taxes in Japan.

Django_McFly

With Cardano defi being so small, I don't think you can swap $7M worth of any token for any token and not have major price impact. Especially not some no name stablecoin. > The Cardano user — with wallet address “addr…4x534” — appeared to make **a test transaction of 4,437 ADA** bruh

The only coin with an intrinsic value is Bitcoin. Not Eth, Not XRP, not ADA. The blockchain however is of value. But the coin itself, no. Only Bitcoin.

kingjoeg

Last cycle ADA was running all year long in 2021. Last year ADA had a little run from the start of Novemember to December. It still hasn't run at all this year. It doesn't look like it's going to. Time's up.

reversenotation

And what would the ADA market cap be at $10?

TopAlert2383

No, not for altcoins. We won't have them all go parabolic, but the big names haven't made new all time highs yet. Coins like Solana, HBAR, Cardano and Link will run much higher and it will happen quick so don't hold waiting for more gains. We had something similar to this in 2017. The altcoins like ADA and XRP didnt run up until December and topped mid January. They keep talking about an extended cycle, but we started early with the ETF, so we could be done in the next 90 days and that would stay in-line with the 4 year cycle. But with FED rate cuts, QE, and a new FED Chair in the next 6 months we could have a huge first 2-3 quarters in 2026. Either way we're not done yet.

ubermensch1001

People do stupid shit when they panic. To sell at this point in the market when ADA is trading at lows with regards to it's BTC pairing is beyond idiotic. On top of this, the guy uses one of these bizarre swaps instead of just sending some to an exchange and selling it there. Crazy AF to me that someone with that much money in Cardano is literally on the same level as some complete noob to the market that threw in $100 lol. I've been seeing a ton of weird stories like this lately. Last month there was this story about some guy with 3 million $ in XRP that had it on a hot wallet that was completely drained.

Charger2950

If morons would stop putting their money in stupid shit coins with zero utility value, like Fart Coin, for example, the market would vastly improve. If you're going to invest in crypto, put your money into ones that are like stocks....companies with actual real-world utility value that is being utilized and will get bigger. Coins like XRP, HBAR, XLM, ADA, etc.

Biggest ever swap by the only ADA holder using DeFi

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; A long-term Cardano holder lost over $6 million in ADA due to a poorly executed swap in an illiquid trading pool. The user swapped 14.4 million ADA worth $6.9 million for 847,695 USDA stablecoins, incurring a loss of approximately $6.05 million. The transaction highlights the risks of trading in illiquid pools, especially for large orders. The wallet had been inactive since 2020, and it is unclear if the user intended to purchase the USDA stablecoin, which has a small market cap. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

People kept saying "oh this sub hates XRP/ADA/XNO, I'll buy more, just look at SOL" But just compare this thread against SOL thread from 2023 and you'll see like 95% pure hate. While in this thread, it's like 50% hate.

TheFlyingHambone

Funny how nobody’s mentioning Cardano when OP literally asked for “fixed supply, utility, long-term, not memes.” ADA has: • Liquid, non-custodial staking (no lockups, fits new IRS / ETP liquidity rules) • One of the most decentralized staking sets in the space • Actual DeFi, stablecoins and RWAs spinning up without turning into a scam casino It’s just not fashionable on Reddit because it doesn’t 100x overnight or launch a new dog coin every week. Narratives rotate. Fundamentals don’t.

biba8163

ADA is -32% from where it was in December 2017, 8 years ago. https://coinmarketcap.com/historical/20171231/ The Use Case of Cardano was to massively fund a grifter who claimed he was a PHD drop-out but was only enrolled in a community college. The objective was successful and Charles Hoskinson is now a billionaire lavishly spending money dumping ADA tokens. - owns a 11-000 acre ranch - is involved in politics first supporting RFK then Trump with his own PAC - has recovered alien remains from the ocean floor - has invested in genetically engineered bioluminescent plants that produce organic lighting! > **"Charles Hoskinson, Jack of All Trades:" Aliens, Cattle, and Plant Genetic Engineering** https://www.chaincatcher.com/en/article/2171707 > **Wyoming Blockchain Billionaire Has Big Political Plans, To Launch PAC** https://cowboystatedaily.com/2025/01/30/wyoming-blockchain-billionaire-has-big-political-plans-to-launch-pac/

Before investing any notable sum into these markets, try things out yourself first of all. Try making 20 dollars out of 10 dollars for example, and see how that works out. Those are little sums that don't hurt, but they give you realistic and reasonable expectations. Unlike those people who tell you that this and that coin is going to pump hundreds of percent lol. (Spoiler: no one actually knows) With that said, do NOT enter this market immediately without a bit of firsthand experience, even if you think you're gonna miss the boat if you don't invest now - trust me, you won't and there will always be opportunities since crypto and especially altcoins regularly go through heavy dips. Also, don't listen YouTube videos or posts on X, or even reddit as i mentioned. The vast, vast majority of people post on social media to either shill you their altcoin or to get attention. 99% of them are NOT here because they know something and want to share it, always keep this in mind. Check the legitimacy of people's claims, check their track record etc and if you can't find any proof of them actually being profitable themselves, disregard them. There are legitimate people and sources out there of course, but they're the minority. But that shouldn't be your main focus anyways. Figure out things yourself by trial and error first of all. This is the only way to actually see how this market moves. Whenever you see some kind of strategy on the internet (including here), always try it yourself with very small sums first. All of this will take a lot of time, but if you don't want to be burned hard and if you don't know how to handle being 50% underwater for example, don't put serious money into crypto. Try everything to eliminate feelings and emotions. Make a solid plan beforehand, that includes an invalidation. Know when you're wrong on an investment and cut losses when that invalidation is reached. Define levels where you want to take profits and follow through with that. ALWAYS know what to buy, where to buy it and for what reason. Know where youre wrong, know where you want to take profits BEFORE buying anything. Never buy when price is rising quickly, never ever get fomo and always look to buy during bigger drops. That's the only certainty I can give you, drops will always come at some point and they're here to be taken advantage of. And again, be very very and extremely careful with crypto influencers and that kind of stuff. Most of them are here to make money themselves, not to make you money. Do not fall for their stories as to why this coin is the future or whatever, because they really and actually don't know more than you. Always go into these topics with a certain level of skepticism, including my post here. Develop an approach that works for you first and foremost, ideally based on data and probabilities. And again yes, this will take a lot of time and effort, but if you don't want to be part of the 95% constantly losing money, then that's the route you'll have to go. :) Also regarding your altcoin portfolio: Be aware of the fact that pretty much every altcoin isn't really made for the long-term, most of them go through 90%+ drops at some point and that makes it really difficult to be profitable by just holding them. Just look at the price history of Solana for example. Dropped 97% during the 2022 bear market. And this is one of the very, very few exceptions that managed to make new all time highs after such a huge drop. Most of them never recover from that, very important fact to be aware of. And those drops will happen at some point and you have to always be ready for this. Again, in my opinion, you should never really invest longterm into altcoins for that reason. They're made for the shorter term. They can rise quickly but they will also drop again just as quickly. Don't hold onto a specific altcoin for dear life as most of them historically became pretty much worthless after a few years. Again, there are exceptions but generally you can say that most of them pretty much die off after their 90%+ drop. Just look at DOT, ATOM, ICP, POL (formerly MATIC if you ever heard of it), ADA (Cardano), VET etc etc. This is what you're gonna have to deal with when investing into altcoins. For actual investments, it's better to stay in Bitcoin since it's the only coin with a proven track record. You know that it's likely going to move higher in the longer term. Maybe you can also include Ethereum, but other than that, no coin has proven itself as a true investment so far. Sure it's a lot more boring and all that but be aware with what you're dealing with when diving into these other coins. ;) Good luck out there.
