Nope, I've been buying XRP since 2017, I have a health sized bag. I don't have enough money to diversify beyond 4 or 5 different assets, and LINK didn't make the cut.

Scottex99

Just re-read what you’ve written. Should I wait for this target price or wait should I sell and buy LINK or should I just go all in on BTC haha. Absolute classic retail behavior and fastest way to lose money. I’m not having a go because we were all there once but you just have to learn how these things work and try to control your emotions. Whilst noobs are buying the top, more experienced people are selling XRP that they held from sub $1, that’s just how markets work. Generally we’ve probably got a bull run for BTC, most good alts and some meme shit for the next 4-5 months… maybe. So just stack your bags now and don’t worry about daily price so much

True_Day3466

I have some Link, it’s only 50 coins tho. I could sell the XRP and put that money into LINK or another coin, but I don’t wanna do what I did 10 days ago and dump ETH for BTC then it starts going up at a higher pace lol. I still have both, but when the BTC run to 123k began, I sold about 25% of my ETH for BTC, and BTC then went from 119 to 122 at the time. I react quickly which is a weakness of mine but I realize sometimes I might need too. I’m willing to take some risk for a little bigger reward. But I really don’t want to lose money on this XRP, but if it means turning higher profits somewhere else, then that’s how it is sometimes and in the end I’ll take a win.

Diabolo_Advocato

I will tip my hat when(if) LINK takes off, meanwhile I will continue to ride my own wave and ignore your FUD.

CryptoNerdSmacker

Oh LINK’s going to 100 alright, 100 mph into the trash bin.

ImSoHungryRightMao

If LINK hits $100, I will have a lot of strong emotions. I'm kind of expecting maybe 50 on the low end, 70 on the high end. Source: my ass.

ThriceHawk

BTC, ETH, and LINK are the 2 everyone should have as their base and the majority of their stack, IMO. Then diversify with things like HBAR, AVAX, SOL, AAVE, etc. XRP is memecoin trash.

50EAGLE

Everyones going to shill you their own crypto , but since im enlightened and mature you should listen to me!! /s In my biggest intelligent opinion Id sell FET. Keep your current alts and consider adding HBAR and LINK. DYOR ofc, but a hold of BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, XLM , LINK and HBAR is a pretty conservative portfolio.

frontrun the normies and buy LINK instead

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Chainlink has expanded its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to include five new blockchains—ApeChain, Cronos, Cronos zkEVM, Hedera, and Hemi—bringing the total to 66 chains. CCIP enables cross-chain asset transfers and uses the LINK token for gas fees, potentially increasing its demand and price. Currently, these chains are in testnet, with mainnet deployment expected in 2025. LINK's price, trading at $17, has fluctuated this year but is projected to rise, possibly exceeding $30.81 by year-end, depending on market conditions. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Smart. Enjoy the profit! I typically wait for cryptos to go up 70% to 100% and take my principal and small profit out. Exception - BTC, ETH, LINK & SUI. All other coins - I play the market and if it goes against me, I sell with max loss of 25%.

After ETH settles, LINK will be next 🚀🚀🚀

sc0ut84

Glad it helped. If you're asking for something with real upside and an actual product behind it, take a look at $APES. It's not just another token—it powers the Apescreener platform, which is already live and being used by serious traders. With new upcoming features like Wallet View, hedge fund, staking, and the recently released mobile app, the utility is increasing fast. Still under the radar, low cap, and strong fundamentals—definitely has short-term 3x (or more) potential if momentum picks up. Alongside $APES for asymmetric upside, two more established plays to consider for a realistic 3x potential over the next cycle: 1. Arbitrum ($ARB) – Strong fundamentals, real adoption, and a growing ecosystem of dApps and scaling solutions. As Layer 2s gain traction, ARB stands to benefit directly. Still undervalued compared to its on-chain usage. 2. Chainlink ($LINK) – The backbone of oracle infrastructure in crypto. It’s been consolidating for a long time and historically lags before big runs. With real-world asset narratives and staking rolling out, a 3x isn’t far-fetched. Both have high liquidity and strong dev backing, so they’re lower risk than microcaps, but still offer meaningful upside if the market trends up. $APES adds the high-volatility kicker. Solid mix.

evanjmf

I’ve always maintained that Chainlink is the only blue chip coin (aside from ETH and BTC). Not surprised LINK is mooning. Accelerated adoption incoming

Dont_Waver

My biggest winners are always the weird plays I make on a whim. Right now it's Grayscale's Chainlink trust which has just gone on a tear since I picked it up. It more than doubled even with LINK only going up a few dollars.

raf1safeer

BTC and ETH are your safest bets in crypto. If you’re open to more risk, look into SOL, LINK, or AVAX. Just don’t go all in on hype coins — diversify and only risk what you’re okay losing.

Scottex99

Rug how? ETFs pump my bags every day. You’re conveniently switching the chat from retail fees to institutional/merchant and acting like HBAR is guaranteed to be picked up by some mainstream corps. It’s not 2017 where some shit like VET had some bs partnership with eBay or Cardano powers Africa lol. LINK is the most used/integrated of them all and is not near ATH at all. HBAR might get traction but its stables where the action really is, it’s played out already. Tether makes billions, Circle just did a very successful IPO. IMO if HBAR and other “decent” alts have a pump, it’s only on the tails of BTC doing well

After reaching $3.81 Trillion crypto marketcap yesterday, the total crypto marketcap is down to $3.66 Trillion which is lower than 7 months ago. BTC is still up $0.22 Trillion from that time frame.

XRP, Quant, and LINK Honorable Mention - HBAR, AVAX 

VeggieGurlie

Sorry. I can't get it down to three. BTC ETH LINK XRP ONE IS MY ONLY ALT COIN THAT HAS PROMISE IF THEY MAKE THE BEST USE OF THEIR TECHNOLOGY

Fragrant-Attitude-81

Totally fair, charts ignore everything that actually moves markets. I’ll switch my focus to on-chain flows and dev activity instead. Quick example: Hedera’s mainnet TPS tripled after the ServiceNow news, but the price of HBAR didn’t move compared to LINK, even though usage jumped that much. That gap looks more interesting than any line I could draw between "aligning stars". Thanks for the steer!

Fragrant-Attitude-81

Well sure no, I don't believe in any predictive value of this. But, maybe, and what I'd like to achieve some day, is to be able to make observations that can provide elements for someone to expand their view and help in decision making or provide ideas. It's more about an angle on the news rather than advice or prediction. But, do you think that looking at past patters doesn't provide any useful insight at all on the mechanics that can repeat? I'm not talking specifically about a coin going to explode or LINK./HBAR becoming a clock. I'm thinking the BTC cycles for example they are kind of a real thing and you can expect it to go a specific way because of the periodic halvings? Not arguing with your take, just making sincere questions to improve my reports, So, thank you a lot for all the feedback you already gave me!

SwimOld5053

Exactly this. And honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if regardless ADA would see $8.80 at the end of this cycle. Might sound wild, but the valuation goes up really fast when it does. Same with SOL, HBAR, LINK. Very possible all of these get to the "kept up prices". Ethereum, on the other hand, is extremely unlikely to see $17,870, and I say this as ETH holder.

Fragrant-Attitude-81

Hi, I'm new to this community and I like analysing pairs. I'd like to start posting short but packed original analysis on different pairs I analyse with my own tool and would appreciate any suggestions or advice. Here's a report I made for today on **LINK/HBAR**. **Ratio Check: LINK/HBAR – 15 June → 14 July** **TL;DR** **Ratio peaked at \~95** mid-June and has been grinding lower into a **tight 58.9–81.6 Bollinger band** (20-period, 3-day EMA). **Currently 66.02**, sitting just above the lower band—historically the zone where mean-reversion punks start licking their chops. **Checkpoint from 14 Jul 07:02 UTC** is already +1.61 % in the green; momentum still feels heavy to the downside. \*\*\* Here's what I’m watching: **Band compression** : the 20-period Bollinger width is the narrowest since late May. Compressed bands → volatility expansion incoming. **EMA slope**: 3-day EMA still curling down. A bullish flip needs a daily close back above 70 to invalidate. **Volume divergence:** spot OBV on LINK has been flat while HBAR saw a spike on 11 Jul. Could hint at HBAR out-performance short-term.  Levels * **Immediate resistance**: 70.0–71.5 (mid-band + previous 4-h pivot). * **Catalyst target**: 75.8 (upper band touch). * **Invalidation**: sustained sub-64 daily close. Food for thought: When ratios compress this tightly, the first breakout (up or down) usually overshoots the band by 1.5–2× ATR before mean-reverting. If you’re swing trading the pair, sizing for a quick 4–6 % kicker on a band-tag might be the play until macro gives a clearer direction. \*\*\* Any comments, criticism, advice or mockery are (mostly) welcome!

What coins are overdue for a pump at this point? I got my eyes on LINK

Content_East_3308

Solid picks for a moderate-risk long-term bag! I like the mix of AI (FET, TAO), infra (LINK, AVAX), and emerging L1s (SUI, APT). You could also look into **AR (Arweave)** for decentralized storage or **PYTH** for oracle exposure. Keeping equal weight is smart for this stage — nice strategy.

Swerve99

yep. LINK taught me the same lesson. you flip atla for sats.

Swerve99

lmao not true. LINK the token sucks because to the tokenomics. as far as competition, nothing comes close the the chainlink network.

Grunblau

Poke around and try to determine what would make someone buy the token. Is it required to interact with the protocol? Is there a reason people would need to hold a bunch of LINK? If your answer to these is “not really” then that would explain the lack of price action. Unless something has changed from when I had the same frustration in ‘22, this was why there is the disconnect. I remember the only reason to hold was that you had an interest in governance of the protocol and that was it.

tldr; CryptoQuant's heatmap reveals significant altcoin outflows from Binance, signaling a potential accumulation phase. Tokens like Ethereum (ETH), Chainlink (LINK), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Aave (AAVE) are being withdrawn more than deposited, a bullish indicator often linked to institutional and whale activity. This trend suggests long-term investor confidence and possible price increases, though external factors like macroeconomic news and Bitcoin's performance could still influence outcomes. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

LMAO gaslighting now when Chainlink has a whole document on billing and how the fee is paid. [https://docs.chain.link/ccip/billing](https://docs.chain.link/ccip/billing) >CCIP supports fee payments in LINK and in alternative assets, including blockchain-native gas tokens and their ERC-20 wrapped versions. The payment model for CCIP is designed to significantly reduce friction for users and quickly scale CCIP to more blockchains by supporting fee payments that originate across a multitude of blockchains over time. And when you pay in another asset this happens [https://github.com/smartcontractkit/payment-abstraction](https://github.com/smartcontractkit/payment-abstraction)

East-Day-7888

Saying CCIP “requires LINK” is like saying AWS “requires USD.” Yes, it bills in dollars but no one says that gives the dollar unique value in AWS infrastructure.

>CCIP does not inherently require LINK to function. Thank you for proving youre using ChatGPT for your answers. [All CCIP calls require the LINK token for payment](https://docs.chain.link/ccip/billing).

East-Day-7888

It is unlikely ccip will provide any direct proce impact So, can we prove CCIP will not directly impact LINK’s price? CCIP does not inherently require LINK to function. The protocol does not include any token sinks (like burns, mandatory staking, or usage fees in LINK only). Therefore, there is no automatic price pressure upward from CCIP’s usage alone. Imagine a toll bridge (CCIP) that accepts either cash (ETH) or tokens (LINK) for payment. If everyone just uses cash, the demand for tokens doesn’t increase—even if the bridge gets a ton of traffic. ... Once again proving you have no idea what you are talking about

cryptolipto

In fact every CCIP transaction uses LINK. Every swift transaction that bridges tradfi to defi will use CCIP So yes the token usage is inherently built into the system. The tokenomics are sound Why isn’t the price moving? Because literally no one knows about it. You certainly don’t

cryptolipto

I am obsessed with LINK it true. But I follow it enough to know that it will happen. It will be the centerpiece of Swifts new system.

Taraih

Big players have all the resources to know this. The fact price hasnt moved means all this will not result in price appreciation for LINK. There is no confirmation at all that they will use the coin. Also Ripple and Chainlink have different goals they are not direct competitors. According to your comment history you are obsessed with LINK. If you are overleveraged you better step back, stop posting all the time that Chainlink will rule the world. Its not gonna happen.

Plan-of-8track

Yet if you held, you would now have significantly more asset value. It’s really about how you look at crypto. If you see it as a volatile short term cash grab/risk take, then you will likely lose. If you zoom out, all the majors (BTC, XRP, ETH, LINK) do is go up, with BTC at the front - with a COVID dip of course.

CunningStunt_1

>except hbar https://cointelegraph.com/news/hedera-linux-foundation-hiero-decentralized-trust >Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) does not require LINK as a token for its operation within the context of Euroclear. Yes it does.

SavingsDimensions74

Crypto will be the death rattle of the banking system as we know it. Of course, they’ll take a slice of the action, but current traditional banking is incredibly shit. XRP, CRV, HBAR, LINK et al. will at the very least fix the broken models, even if the banks still get their grubby hands on it. BTC is just a store of value. A very very very good one.

biba8163

BTC now has held the ~$100K range: - Longer than ETH has held the $3K range (first breached in 2021) - Longer than XRP has held $3 range (first breached in 2018) - Longer than SOL has held the $200 range (first breached in 2021) - Longer than ADA has held the $2 range (first breached in 2021) - Longer than LINK has held the $20 range (first breached in 2020) Meaning BTC has more support at ATH levels than some the the popular Alts do at what people consider low/disappointing levels that they need to break out of.

Always HODL like a true LINK Marine

Honest opinion here... ALGO is a real RWA option... But really honest? ONDO, LINK, QNT has better solutions for long term. Just study those assets...

I asked chatGPT which coins to buy to get rich.. This is what it said: Higher Risk, Higher Reward (Moonshot Potential) These coins can 10x or crash to zero. Do your own deep research before investing. 1. $INJ (Injective) • Focused on decentralized finance (DeFi) and derivatives. • Strong backers and innovative tech. 2. $RUNE (THORChain) • Enables cross-chain swaps with no centralized exchange. • Huge utility if it catches on. 3. $JUP (Jupiter on Solana) • Solana ecosystem’s DEX aggregator. • Good positioning if Solana keeps growing. ⸻ 💎 Established Projects with Growth Potential Safer than moonshots, but still risky — think 2x to 5x returns in a bull run. 1. $SOL (Solana) • Cheap, fast, developer-friendly. • Has a growing DeFi, NFT, and meme coin ecosystem. 2. $AVAX (Avalanche) • High-speed layer 1 with big institutional partnerships. • Used in tokenization and gaming projects. 3. $LINK (Chainlink) • Oracle network powering data for DeFi. • Low hype currently = potential upside.

If I had to pick just 3 cryptocurrencies to invest in going forward, I'd go with Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Chainlink (LINK). Bitcoin remains the most trusted and widely adopted store of value in the crypto space, making it a foundational asset. Ethereum is the backbone of smart contracts and DeFi, with continuous upgrades that improve scalability and utility. Chainlink, while more niche, plays a crucial role in connecting smart contracts to real-world data, and its importance is likely to grow as blockchain tech becomes more integrated into industries. These three offer a mix of stability, innovation, and utility.

Oh great. The top is in again. But LINK is barely $15. BTC go down to 80k, ETH go back to sub $2k. And LINK might drop below $10. I can see this happening. As an investor it sucks. Every time there is a glimmer of hope, something just tears it all down again.

Specifically, Alts are an IQ test of when to enter and exit. Altcoins are like options, extremely high risk, extremely high reward, extremely high failure rate. They are not VOO or SPY or Bitcoin in this case. People who bought ETH when it was $10-$100 made a ton of money. People who bought XRP when it was sub $0.01 made a lot of money. People who made ADA when it was $0.02 made a lot of money. People who bought LINK at $0.20 made a lot of money. These aren't ICO prices or cherry picked prices, a ton of people bought them at this amount. For instance, LINK IPOed at $0.09, ADA under a cent, XRP way under that, ETH $3. However, you were **never meant to hold Altcoins for decades** - And that's where a ton of people make huge mistakes. If you're still holding something like NEO or NANO or VET or any of the 2017 coins in 2025, you're doing it wrong. In and out like an exchange. Take your profits and move on.

Please, think about buying, but do not buy the following: ADA, ONDO, BONK, LINK, and CELR. For me.

Everyone keeps complaining about BTC not reaching ATH in EUR and some other currencies. At the same time, Alt investors are cheerleading like they won something. ETH - The 1st time ETH hit $3K was 4 years and 2 months ago when BTC was $57K - The last time ETH was at $3K was 5 months ago when BTC was at $100K XRP - The 1st time XRP hit $3 was 7 years and 7 months ago when BTC was $15K - The last time XRP was at $3 was was 5 months ago when BTC was at $102K ADA - The 1st time ADA hit $1 was 7 years and 7 months ago when BTC was $15K - The last time ADA was at $1 was was 5 months ago when BTC was at $94K LINK - The 1st time LINK hit $20 was 5 years ago when BTC was $11K - The last time LINK was at $20 was was 5 months ago when BTC was $100K

If USD Shitcoin is being rugpulled then what do you call what's happening with /r/cryptocurrency's favorite Alts?

I think buying Alt Coins are similar to buying Round Trip Tickets. They always bring you back where you started. ETH - The 1st time ETH hit $3K was 4 years and 2 months ago when BTC was $57K - The last time ETH was at $3K was 5 months ago when BTC was at $100K XRP - The 1st time XRP hit $3 was 7 years and 7 months ago when BTC was $15K - The last time XRP was at $3 was was 5 months ago when BTC was at $102K ADA - The 1st time ADA hit $1 was 7 years and 7 months ago when BTC was $15K - The last time ADA was at $1 was was 5 months ago when BTC was at $94K LINK - The 1st time LINK hit $20 was 5 years ago when BTC was $11K - The last time LINK was at $20 was was 5 months ago when BTC was $100K

Summarizing the responses with the top 5. * Ethereum (ETH): Drives DeFi & smart contracts, widely adopted. Risk: High fees & rivals. * Solana (SOL): Fast, scalable for dApps. Risk: Centralization issues. * Hedera (HBAR): Efficient Hashgraph for enterprises. Risk: Low retail use. * Chainlink (LINK): Vital for DeFi data oracles. Risk: Market swings. * XRP: Swift global payments, institutional support. Risk: Regulatory hurdles

definitely wish i did. im only up a few hundred now. ive got money in ETH, SOL, LINK, AVAX. and a fraction in BTC. last i heard those were all good to put money in but idek the game like that anymore. just trying to figure out if i should cut my losses or stick it out a bit longer.

Unfair_Geologist8572

ETH, LINK, ONDO for sure, ADA at these price levels as well.

LINK without BTC

mm38speciales

ETH LINK and RNDR have utility infrastructure and future-proof vibes

Altruistic_Image46

From a combination of profits+safety I like ETH, LINK, LTC. ETH is the BTC of web3 & DeFi. LINK is a necessity for all DeFi. LTC has been around 14 years, available everywhere, widely used, and the only thing I see that resembles BTC included in current ETF filings. I would choose two then with the third I would take a shot at something with a smaller cap looking for more multiples. Find a project with an idea you have conviction in and a team that is constantly developing. Some of my safer candidates would be AERO and MORPHO. My riskier candidates would be Aleph Cloud, DIA, and Creator Bid. More risk more possible multiples, but also more likely to go broke.

ETH and LINK. Those are key cypto tech, everything else is speculative. HYPE set to be major exchange, gets 3rd berth.

DMguy1

For large caps like ETH, SOL, or LINK — 2x is realistic in a strong alt season, maybe 3x if momentum really catches. But it’s usually the mid-caps that run harder once BTC cools off. Risk goes up, but so does the upside.

DMguy1

You’re asking the right stuff — that already puts you ahead. I like ICP and LINK right now. ICP is doing wild stuff under the radar. I follow volume + wallet flow more than hype — I get that mostly from Twitter and smaller trading groups. Let me know if you want some starter resources that helped me early.

DMguy1

Solid you’re thinking long-term. From your list, I’d lean toward LINK and HBAR — real use cases, solid backing. I look at use case, tokenomics, and dev activity before buying anything. For news: Lookonchain, Crypto Panic, and a couple private groups I follow — they catch moves early, way before Reddit.

APES – unlocks AI-driven portfolio automation, adaptive DCA/rebalancing, and derisking tools. Direct utility tied to subscription tiers and platform governance. Early-stage upside with real function. iOS and Android apps launched on June 26th. ETH – foundational smart contract layer with dominant network effects. Crucial for DeFi, NFTs, L2s. Deflationary post-merge. High Lindy score. LINK – critical data infrastructure. Enables secure, decentralized oracles. Real-world adoption via Chainlink CCIP, institutional integrations. APES + ETH + LINK: balanced trio spanning automation, infrastructure, and execution layer.

Future adoption already priced in potentially and with LINK the team dumps tokens (sells) their tokens and new tokens released. Look up the projects tokenomics.

mbate2305

what is it with you and your sad obsession with XRP? *"Looks like xrp may have just been used to gain liquidity to get their operations up n running."* guess what you LINK holders (yeah im one of them) have been doing. yeah thats right funding Sergeys powerpoint team... node operators and founders pockets ... hilarious i would say take a look at "your" own posts to sense check ridiculous claims on SWIFT... you wrote the book buddy...

I've been diversifying a bit holding some $LINK, $TIA and recently started stacking WhiteNet. Feels like one of those early infra plays actually doing something with real world assets. Still under the radar, which I like

Chemist478

I'd probably do a 70/20/10 split: $70 in ETH, $20 in BTC, and $10 in a promising altcoin like LINK or ARB.
