Besides the current big ones like BTC, ETH, LINK and a few others, $ZYPTO will definitely be one of them.

Ripple / XRPs longevity is a big advantage over newer companies… consistently being in the top 10 and being one of the first cryptos gives a heavy advantage… (Bitcoin has the BIGGEST first mover advantage, but ETH / XRP / SOL benefit as well) when a transfer takes 1-3 seconds it’s other areas of infrastructure slowing it down… when a fee is less than $0.001 It doesn’t matter if it’s cheaper… look at all the collaborations / acquisitions / adoption… companies not just buying reserve but putting utility into action… Tbh most people who believe in XRP also believe in the potential of a lot of cryptos as well and tend to be diversified - XRP is my biggest bag (partly as it has outperformed the market over the last year so has naturally become worth more than other tokens with the same amount invested) but I also hold SUI LINK DOT FLR ALGO ADA XLM … I feel like most of the hate is just residue from Bitcoin Maxis saying whatever brain dead takes they can think up … Besides - I much prefer a Ripple Brad vs a MicroStrategy Michael

I’m dollar-cost averaging into Ocean Protocol (OCEAN) right now. Their node incentives and Compute-to-Data jobs keep climbing, and data markets feel like the next frontier in AI infra. I’m also adding small positions in Layer-1s with clear use cases, AVAX for on-chain gaming, $LINK for decentralized oracles, and POL for low-fee rollup volume.

AMP, AERO, ICP, SOL, ADA, LINK, ETH. Then, I sprinkle a little Pepe on top of it all. And, as always, buying bitcoin daily.

BTC and LINK. ETH probably, but there is going to be a ton of competition.

ispotdouchebags

Agree but disagree. Bitcoin is the standard - full stop. Digital gold. Irrefutable. Undeniable. But, only for a store of value. Alt coins will serve a big purpose: Higher Potential Returns • Altcoins are more volatile, meaning they can rise faster (and fall harder). • Smaller market caps = more room to grow. • Example: In bull markets, coins like Solana or Avalanche can do 5x–20x while Bitcoin might only 2x–3x Innovation and Use Cases • Many altcoins power specific ecosystems or technologies: • Ethereum (ETH): Smart contracts and DeFi. • Chainlink (LINK): Decentralized oracles. • Polygon (MATIC): Scaling Ethereum. • Filecoin (FIL): Decentralized storage. • Bitcoin is seen more as a digital gold than a technology platform Access to New Sectors • Altcoins let investors target trends: • DeFi (Decentralized Finance) – e.g., AAVE, UNI • Gaming & Metaverse – e.g., SAND, MANA • AI tokens – e.g., FET, AGIX • This allows exposure to emerging sectors of Web3 Portfolio Diversification • Just like in traditional investing, some use altcoins to diversify their crypto holdings, reducing exposure to just one asset. And the big one: Lower Entry Price (Psychological) • Some investors feel they “missed the boat” on Bitcoin. • They are attracted to altcoins priced under $1 or $10, even though price per coin doesn’t equal value (market cap is what matters).

syKonaut

Need to make smart trades. I’m pretty much all in right now mainly on SUI which I sold all my DOT, ADA and LINK for back when SUI hit $1.9. I will soon be 2x again on SUI. I am 3x at least on all the SUI alt coins I own such as DEEP, Scallop, 2x on WAL. haedal to name a few. Now I just own SUI and SUI net alts/memes, SOL and XMR.

NihilisticMind

Honestly? I researched Dapps online as well as asked chatgpt to explain blockchain technology and what the vision of web3 might be. After reading about it, and asking more questions, I was able to narrow down some criteria that make sense to me for long term. Here is chatgpt's conclusion: >Conclusion: Ethereum (ETH), Chainlink (LINK), Polygon (MATIC), Filecoin (FIL), and Uniswap (UNI) are the tokens that most directly align with the principles of Web 3.0—decentralization, privacy, ownership, and interoperability. These tokens represent both the infrastructure needed for a decentralized internet and the financial ecosystems that Web 3.0 will likely be built upon. Hope that helps!

tldr; Bitcoin's price faced rejection at $110,000 despite positive developments like a potential US-China trade deal and favorable US CPI data. After recovering from a previous dip below $100,500, Bitcoin briefly surged to $110,500 but failed to sustain the momentum, dropping over $2,500 to trade below $108,000. The total crypto market cap lost over $70 billion, with most altcoins, including DOGE, ADA, and LINK, experiencing significant declines. Bitcoin's market dominance remains at 61%, while Ethereum and other major altcoins also saw minor losses. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

CynthiaTWilkerson

If you look at the market highs and BTC dominance, you wouldn’t be too sure if an alt season is around the corner. I bought ETH back in 2022, and while there have been some volatile swings, it’s still pretty up there with strong fundamentals. So, you really don’t have to look too deep into the timing of the season before you invest because it feels like there lies your confusion. If you trust a project and its vision or utility, there shouldn’t be any waiting for an alt season. Invest. Moreover, there are projects like XRP, LINK, SOL, VAULTA, and other ISO 20022-compliant projects following BTC's rally closely, showing green candles and strong fundamentals.

azdcaz

Last cycle LINK dropped from $52.99 to $4.84. ETH dropped from $4872 to $880. Of course that’s from peak to trough and we’re not at a peak, but the drops are still crazy.

CynthiaTWilkerson

You should try to maintain a more balanced portfolio, something like a 70:30 ratio between BTC and altcoins. Personally, I don’t hold any of the coins you mentioned, but most top projects are still holding up pretty well, especially with the growing buzz that an altseason might be around the corner. Consider reshuffling your alt bags and stick to solid tokens within the top 100 on platforms like Coinbase. Coins like ETH, SOL, SUI, A, and LINK. Even SUI and INJ are looking like top-tier choices right now.

nugymmer

True this one...the vast majority of alt coin holders, as per commonsense, will end up with either a badly slashed value or perhaps nothing at all. Only a very few alt coin holders will get ahead. Most will be left behind. It's not just the brainies...the intelligent ones with the smarts to know this. Anyone can tell you this. Anyone. I know, because I've been there and I've done that. Where did I end up? Nowhere near where I'd have ended up if I'd just stuck to ONE and we all know what that ONE is. It's number ONE. It's the ONE. No other. Stop wasting time holding tokens that \*might\* take off. Most won't. Just stick to the ONE with the track record of consistently making new ATHs, and forget the rest. This is coming from a LINK holder, this is coming from someone who held quite a few alts and a meme coin. Please, do yourself a favor and part your ass with alts, and stick to BTC. I'm not a true BTC maxi, but I believe the day will come where I (and most of you) won't have a choice but to be one unless you want to stay poor.

CryptoCryptonaire

The actual list includes XLM, XRP, SOL, ETH, BTC, LINK, UNI, LTC and ADA. Why are you posting this as though its "only" ADA?

SyrupyMolassesMMM

Honestly, one of the only ‘genuine’ use case tokens in crypto are oracles. I dont really give a shit which one wins, but LINK way ahead. Either way, integration between the ‘real world’ and hermetically sealed crypto ecosystem bubbles is going to be requires for crypto to thrive long term. With that said, LINK has had shit price action for years. So I dont own much.

Due-Candy-8929

Planning to scale out of most of my crypto holdings through this market cycle, and buy back in the future - once we have found the bottom of the bear markets I would probably buy back into XRP SUI LINK HBAR and either XLM or save the 5th spot for something new (would have to do research) I like ETH… its been my most recent buy (was buying it while sentiment was in the gutter… was fun seeing it take off a little again recently! overall I probably lean more towards SUI more though? 🤷🏻‍♀️(which seemed to run at the same time) All the tribal maxis put me off BTC a lot… there is no conviction or forward thinking just hate on everything else - if there was more than 5 might hold but don't think it would make my list - each cycle sees lower percentage gains - especially if you are round tripping - BTC isn't 2X from the 2021 cycle high of 69k currently, however from the bottom its over 5x up! (it took around 850 days to get back to 69k after dropping as well - its a long time to wait to get back DCA-ing, while buying power also increased as well if someone tok profits even close to the top and waited until after the base was found to start buying back in - not talking about jumping in and out, and still largely just buying and holding and sitting out until a good re-entry point once profits are taken and a lot of the risk is off the table I think SOL will do really well but said why I don't trade it anymore earlier in the thread Have heard good things about QNT but its not on the exchange I mostly use I'm curious to see if LINK will heavily outperform BTC ETH this cycle- lower market caps can see huge % gains with far less money going in!

CleverClover222

Hey thanks! I used to watch (way too much) cryptoYT. I do have blockchain backer bookmarked (like you, I enjoy a more conservative approach and prefer reality to hopium). I don't trade either......kinda regret that at the moment, not gonna lie. I'm trying to decide right now, if A) I want to trade MORE and implement the strategies the xrp boys you mentioned used.......or if B) I actually don't want to trade at ALL and just reduce my positions down to the few I see as most promising (sell the others and roll profits into the few keepers). Quite a divide there, lol. Just out of curiosity ---since I run into very few 'crypto-similar' folks like myself (usually people are heavy traders or have become very very tribalistic around one or two projects). I haven't done either of those two things....sounds like you haven't either? Pretend you have a crystal ball......pick ONLY 5 projects that your ball suggests you stack & hold. Doesn't have to be defi, it can be any in the crypto-sphere. I'll go first.....but in the interest of full disclosure, I'm (right now) deciding which they are going to be. I have 24 positions at the moment. It could change tomorrow. But TODAY if someone forced me to sell all but five-- I would hold : BTC, ETH, SOL, LINK & QNT. What say YOU? 😜 PS for the sake of this pretend all your positions are equally weighted with around the same profit margins. What 5 do you think STILL hold promise for the future?

binary_quasar

A bummer, but also a lesson. Hype and FOMO are like drugs. We chase that high we get from being a part of something novel and exciting, especially if we believe that it could change the world. Almost all of us experienced it somewhat with BTC or ETH. It feels good to be validated. True validation comes from having a comprehensive and well-thought plan and executing that plan to the best of your ability. I don't know your situation, so I can't say what would be a good pathway for you to take looks like, but let me tell you my plan as it wouldn't surprise me if we were in at least similar circumstances. I am still holding alt bags from 2018 through 2020. Luckily, my original portfolio plan was 70% BTC, 20% ETH, and 10% random alts. Some of them I am happy I hung on to, but my mistake was to enter these investments with the only semblance of a plan being "*sell when rich*." For now, I have *very modest* profit targets for these alts. These are set limit orders on very reputable exchanges that will automatically trigger at certain prices. I don't care if the coin is pumping hard when it gets triggered and I'm maybe missing out on gains. I'm not chasing FOMO. These orders are mostly going straight into BTC with a couple to USDC so I have dry powder to buy more BTC during a downturn. My goal with alts, which I lost sight of while distracted with hype and FOMO, was always only to get more bitcoin. That was my early goal with ETH too - **use gains to get more BTC**. With ETH, I bought the majority of my holdings when it was around $100, so it's grandfathered into my long-term holds because I've made my cost basis back several times. Same with 50% of my LINK and SOL bags, bought them dirt cheap, so they can stick around for the foreseeable future. From here on out, **fuck altcoins.** I'm not buying a fucking dime worth of anything that is not Bitcoin. My ETH is staked, so some small APY gains, but eventually all of that ETH and LINK is going straight into BTC. Not that ETH doesn't have actually decent tech and a bright future, but this entire space exists because of bitcoin. It's the best and will always be the best. It's the most secure network in the entire world and has proven itself time and time again. Companies countries, and states are starting reserves of Bitcoin, not ETH or anything else. To me, it's crystal clear. Bitcoin won. Everything else is a distraction. It will always be the king of crypto and is the only cryptocurrency that is legitimately changing the world.

ConstantOrchid3240

Most of my portfolio is BTC and there is no doubt it will remain the same but it is also good to invest in other coins which have utility for example LINK which is an oracle network aiming to bridge fiat and blockchain techmologies.

MotanulScotishFold

You need to look at BTC.D , ETH/BTC Ratio, compare the supply&marketcap from past and today on alts and also the price it was in the begin of the bullmarket to now. eg. BTC in Jan 2023: 16650$, BTC in 2025 ATH: 110k $ \+660% raise. Doge in 2023 at lowest: 0.05$ Doge ATH since: 0.47$ \+940% That's are just 2 random examples. Next I take for example LINK the comparisson between 6 June 2021 from snapshot in coinmarketcap and present. 2021: Price: 27.55$ Marketcap: 11'874'992'855.91$ Circulating Supply: 431'009'554 LINK Today: Price: 14$ Marketcap: 9.22B Circulating Supply: 657'099'970.45 Link (+52.45% more than in 2021). Which means that if LINK have same marketcap as 2021, the value will not be 27$ but 18$, this due to the diluation of the new coins in circulation. Marketcap 2021 / Circulating Supply Today = Price. But all of these are also influenced by the value of the $, DXY. If the dollar goes down, it's normal to see prices going up, it's just the devaluation of the $ but it's not a real gain. There are so much data that people just don't look after but only dream of infinite pumps, like XRP at 100$ which it will be never a reality and these people are just delusional.

This has nothing to do with LINK and everything to do with BTC. Practically everything has been free money shorting the ratio with BTC. And most more profitable than LINk.

Due-Candy-8929

Dont trade emotionally and don't just follow retail along blindly… you are likely to sell the bottom abs fomo buy back in at the top … I hold a lot of alts : XRP ETH SUI LINK HBAR XLM DOT FLR ALGO ADA … but I’m not worried and not watching the charts too closely - a lot of analysts are expecting an alt season but the average retail speculator will get scared out and buy back in once they feel safer… buy the fear, sell the greed… should be more worried when people are saying “ITS NEVER GOING DOWN!”

Due-Candy-8929

I much prefer to be diversified : currently holding XRP ETH SUI LINK HBAR XLM ALGO ADA DOT FLR... I stay away from memes / leverage - larger caps like ETH / XRP are a bit safer than smaller caps, but the higher you go up the risk profile the higher the potential returns as well... I like to play fairly safe though and don't really go into anything that small - be prepared to see high volatility, and to take profits and take some risk off the table as well - I don't plan to do a round trip this cycle! I don't think I'll be able to sell the top, but I plan to scale out of most of my cypto and take profits

SunDreamShineDay

Ha, far from perfect, in fact not true on a few things >1.Old Narratives: XRP’s centralized validators limit versatility. The XRPL does not have an authority node, it has no central authority, it is maintained by independent, Ripple owns one validator. >3.Regulatory Fit: XRP’s legal issues and LINK’s DeFi ambiguity don’t match public-sector compliance needs.

Cautious_You7796

I'm more of a believer in BTC than the alts but that doesn't stop me from DCA'ing small amounts into other Alts. Some of them have done pretty poorly, the worst of which is LINK (which is a bit surprising because for a decent bit it was one of the best) but others have done really well, namely AAVE. I just recently cashed out profits in that and took it over to BTC.

CynthiaTWilkerson

My bag’s stacked with ETH, SUI, SOL, LINK, and A. atm, I’m all in on the real world assets and web3 banking space, but also diversifying for a bit now. Vaulta’s the one catching my attention most in that lane, mostly because of its strong fundamentals and the shift it’s making. I take profits when it’s right and buy the dips like clockwork. That’s the game

CynthiaTWilkerson

You’re on the right path. Coinbase is fine to start with, especially for beginner-friendly buys. The app lets you buy directly, while the Coinbase Wallet is more for holding and using crypto in DeFi. Eventually, you’ll want to learn about using decentralized exchanges (DEXs) like Uniswap or tools like DEXTools, but no rush. Stick with coins that have real-world use or strong backing.BTC, ETH, LINK, and A (Vaulta) are solid. Avoid chasing hype or meme tokens early on. Take time to read, watch, and learn. The more you understand, the safer and smarter your moves will be.

FlappySocks

When there is a gold rush, always put some money aside for picks and shovels. That's ChainLink (LINK). They are working along side JP Morgan, Blackrock, Swift, and many other legacy banks. They are also working with the Whitehouse in drafting legislation. It's a long term investment. Buy, and stake.

First make sure you put aside at least 3 months worth of expenses (emergency fund) in a readily accessible HYSA since you won’t have a monthly income until your next job. After you’ve done that you can begin buying the ‘dip’ - Bitcoin is still near ATH so maybe wait to see how things play out before buying back in. ETH still has plenty room for growth assuming favourable market conditions moving forward. Kaspa is a great project too. Consider HBAR, LINK and ALGO too. Depending on the size of the bonus you can hedge by buying Gold or a global ETF (although equity markets are near all time highs as well).

TroubleInMyMind

When weekly RSI dips below 40 I'll start reloading alts like LINK, AAVE, and DOGE

gowithflow192

Which bargains will you load up on? Thinking about LINK. Not saying these are long term holds, I don't believe that about alts. They oscillate and occasionally have huge pump. Could be a good time to buy alts and dump the next time they pump hard.

Onauto

Dig in and read, watch videos for a couple thousand hours. For now, XRP, XLM, HBAR, ADA, SOL, QNT, LINK, and BTC as a storage bank. Stay away from hype and look at functional crypto with institutional deals. No frogs, dogs, hats, or cats. Buy the blood and sell the green. That’s all I can say.

You are starting to get that trading Shitcoins is NOT finance. **DeFi is a bullshit scam narrative from the Summer of 2020. It's not neither decentralized and it's not fiance. DeFi is ScamFi:**. The world doesn't need for anything. The general public doesn't want it and will never use it. It's for crypto bros circle jerking each other pretending they are using alternative blockchain financial services. - Essentially a Shitcoin Casino. Leveraged plays, trading shitcoin tokens, earning yield on shitcoin tokens, providing liquidity on shitcoin tokens. NOT FINANCE - Every player like, MakerDAO, AAVE, LINK etc, is COMPLETELY CENTRALIZED - There are **no life financial products like life, home, health insurance, mortgages, home equity loans, car loans, personal loans without massive collateral, commercial loans, etc.** Again, shitcoin trading, yield farming, etc is NOT FINANCE. - Then you slap some scamified metrics like TVL based on scam tokens locked up to make gullible fools believe real capital is locked up instead of vaporware scam tokens.

Have heard great things about LINK but i feel like i missed the buying window…

Distinct-Thanks-6477

Oh my God that's way too many altcoins. The wiser choice would be to cut this down to 6 maximum imo. Makes it easier to keep track of them all. My personal conviction picks are BTC, ETH, LINK, TAO, RENDER, and AIOZ.

Due-Candy-8929

I’m also holding ETH , ALGO, ADA, HBAR, DOT, SUI… Ones I’m holding that you’re not include XRP XLM LINK FLR

Due-Candy-8929

I don't see BTC hitting 500k any time soon... ETH could hit 10K though... I have a fair few alts... holding ETH and LINK, I have heard of RNDR but don't have it... I have never heard of the other 2 though

CynthiaTWilkerson

ETH, LINK, FET, and INJ have always held it down as solid DINO coins. But RNDR? Can’t really say the same. Might just swap that out for SOL or SUI; more meme projects building momentum there. Or even EOS, especially with its transition into Vaulta.

CynthiaTWilkerson

are you converting to stables if you'll be selling? Wouldn’t be surprised if you’re just rotating into other alts; can’t ignore how strong ETH, SOL, EOS, and LINK have been moving lately.

CynthiaTWilkerson

With solid DYOR, you’ll always uncover good altcoins. Personally, I still believe DINO coins like ETH, SOL, EOS, and LINK have what it takes to remain true base coins. Look for projects building real value. not just chasing hype. Hype fades. utility sustains. Right now, we’re riding a bullish train, and it’s not a bad time to invest. But if you’re patient, another healthy dip could give you an even better entry and more upside on your bag

CynthiaTWilkerson

ETH looks more like hitting 10k faster than BTC reaching 500k. As for alts, the shift is getting clearer, tokenized assets, Web3 banking, and BTC DeFi are taking center stage, which could benefit projects like LINK. Wouldn't be surprised to see LINK could be close to 40, VAULTA hitting 15, and PENDLE reaching its ATH again. ETH looks more like hitting 10k faster than BTC reaching 500k.

Distinct-Thanks-6477

Wow. Very hard to tell, to be honest, but I think Portfolio 1 hits first. This is just due to the sheer resilience of Bitcoin and the fact that altcoins tend to follow Ethereum's lead. This isn't stopping me from believing that RENDER, LINK, TAO, and AIOZ will reach incredible heights, though. Strong juggernauts.

Livid-Swordfish6355

Seeing as XRP, XLM, and HBAR are all basically going to act the same way price-wise, I might consider swapping out of one of them and diversifying into something like AVAX or LINK

izdigohkz

I do swing and position trading on assets I hold for the long term, as these approaches correlate. Investing is quite straightforward; pick an entry point where you feel the market is oversold (T. Analysis), and I choose a minimum Reward to Risk ratio of 3:1. This has worked very well for me, especially on reliable assets, the likes of XRP, EOS (now $A), Sui, and LINK

izdigohkz

This is why we employ technical analysis to complement the news. I have seen such scenarios play out several times on every one of the major assets I trade (XRP, Sui, LINK, and EOS), which also facilitates my conviction that the alt season is near. The patterns are all etched in history.

Icy_Mushroom_425

Fair take - but it’s not about banks buying tokens like ETH or LINK. It’s about them adopting the tech behind it. They're building private chains, testing tokenization and using stablecoins for settlements. It's not loud or flashy, but it's happening - just not in the way retail expects.

No_Bison7535

DCA con BTC Luego mis favoritas son XRP, LINK y ETH. Posible gemas, que creo que lo va a perar YELLOW, pero todavia no ha hecho su TGE

IsItSafe2Speak

I just swapped almost all my XRP for LINK. XRP is going nowhere imo

Onauto

I’d be doing some diversification. BTC is value storage. XRP, XLM,XDC, ADA, SOL, HBAR, ALGO, and LINK are more likely to see aggressive growth between now and December. Hold and wait for the days people are freaking out over the green candles and sell DCA style on the up flow. Buy the blood and sell the green.

stoneymaloney34

"ETH, SOL, LINK, SUI, and ONDO all have solid fundamentals — from here, you could realistically see a 2x return with a relatively safe risk profile.

Onauto

XRP, XLM, XDC, SOL, ADA, HBAR, ALGO, & LINK Solid cryptos with a future imo. If you’re feeling wild, ZBCN and KAS.

QuantNinjaStonkNerd

Yeah agreed — stuff like LINK doing 300x needed a long cooldown. But this cycle feels different. New narratives like AI, RWA, modular chains are getting real traction, and post-2022 tokens don’t have old bagholder baggage. Maybe altseason this time is just fresh projects running, not everything.

urbangoose

afaik, 99% of the alts are still correcting/normalizing from the 2019 to 2021 bubblicious run-up. people forget that even ethereum, the 2nd largest crypto, bottomed at \~$80 then ran up to $4890, which is like 61x. bitcoin went from 3k to 69 (respectable 21x). but coins like LINK for example, went from $0.16 to $52.5 which is 328x or about 32000%. which is insane. you don't get to have that big of an explosive move without some serious consolidation. the only alts that have done well recently are one that came out post-2022, like Sui it will come eventually. i never liked the 4 year cycle. i lost the number of times Plan B revised his model to retrofit the data

Specialist-Mixx

Ethereum was an ICO. Ripple was premined. LINK was a premine…. > Companies won’t buy VET Talk about fumbling the ball. Do you even have a rudimentary understanding of how utility tokens work? The value isn’t in speculative holding, it’s in facilitating network activity. Something that will be highlighted even further with the Galactica upgrade and the move to DPoS. > Its not open source, and doesn’t have a whitepaper Which would be true, if this was 2017 still. Their GitHub is very active, they have a whitepaper a roadmap that is being followed, and with the VThor upgrade, it became open source. **Hindsight claiming that something is a scam because it lost value against BTC is such a disingenuous way of portraying something. 99.99% of coins inevitably loses their value comparably to BTC.** The price in 2020 was 0.0015 - so comparably anyone that bought in that interim is up 2000% on their investment, compared to BTCs 1200%. You’re also comparing price with BTC dominance at an ATH, not to mention the absolute lack of credibility you reflect when you’re claiming that the feasibility of a company is purely based off of their ability to perform in a purely speculative market. By your metrics, DOGE and Shiba are more valuable projects than any other in the space.

CleverClover222

Same. Finally emerging from the darkness to look around at my alt status.....I held all my bags ADA, LINK, HBAR, SOL, and even XRP and am really happy I chose projects that survived thus far. ADA has taught me something incredibly elusive to me... patience, lol. GL !

NoCaptain9675

I think that’s a solid mix to start with altcoins. ETH offers stability and utility, LINK is key for data feeds, RNDR taps into AI and graphics, INJ supports DeFi, and FET rides the AI trend. It’s diversified across strong narratives, which helps balance risk while keeping growth potential high.

GoreVetzakk

What a thoughtful response … if you had actualiy done the bare minimum research you’d know that there are real use cases beyond your lazimy talking points. ETH powers smart contracts, LINK runs oracles for real world date, RNDR is a decentralized rendering networrk, … Should i keep going?

SubstantialIce1471

Consider watching LINK, INJ, RNDR, and ARB. Strong narratives, solid utility, and growing ecosystems could drive future upside potential.

Omeri_AR

Hey everybody A question. I started taking crypto seriously by the end of last year. I was wondering if it is still worth investing in Btc. I normally invest around 200$/month. Into various coins but never into Btc. Cu its way high and my margin for profit will be slightly less. What would be your advice. I have invested in XRP, SOL, LINK, DOT(v les though), SUI (v less) and RENDER( I hold only 20 tokens).

nugymmer

Yes because it's the only one with a proven track record and a limited supply that is hard coded into the system. That said, as for other tokens, eg. LINK, there is a fixed supply of 1B tokens, so a fixed supply can help, but remember that tokens are still not all in circulation. The same situation applies to HBAR and some other alts. Tokenomics is a problem with most alts. This is a lesson that so many people have yet to learn. If you want to buy something like LINK or HBAR, you want to 1/ hold for a long time, and 2/ hope that something else doesn't come along and supplant it. And...for the last and final time: THERE WILL BE NO NEXT BTC. There is BTC and there is BTC, there is no next BTC, never was and never will. There is BTC only. If you want to try your hand at XMR, then fine, but don't get upset if the court decides to freeze everything you own because you owned a crypto you could not prove the original location/owner of.

Onauto

ETH, XRP, and LINK will likely be running well into 2026 IMO. Although, there will be some turbulence until regulation is in place creating some opportunities to utilize a partial exit strategy allowing you rebuy temporary drops to increase your position and take a little off the table for other things.

_etherium

Those are just buzz words lmao. None of that needs to utilize LINK so that token is pointless. You think all of wall street will have to buy your little bag of stinky linky's?

_etherium

Where do chainlink oracles get their RWA data from? Oh wait, Bloomberg, NYSE, NASDAQ, etc. Everyone knows blockchains are all about disintermediation so as the real trading and settlement systems get closer to production ready, the participants will just cut out useless middlemen and pointless weak money tokens like LINK. These experiments with SWIFT, JPM, and DTCC are just knowledge transfer. Why recreate the old system when blockchains render them obsolete? I used to work with all 3 during their initial blockchain experiments and it's clear that they recognize this.

IcyDragonFire

Assuming no major news for either of the coins, nor global major news, I expect the following:   ETH: gain 15% over the next month, then 5-10% over the following 2 month, then pull back.   XRP: gain 10-15% during the next few weeks, then lose 40-50% over the span of a few weeks.    LINK: gain 20-40% in the next 2 months before pulling back.   Bear in mind that these predictions are based on technical factors only, and do not regard any fundamental aspect of the coins.   Also, as the market evolves I might've revise by predictions, but those are my current ones.

_etherium

LINK is pointless token too. When the big assets come on chain, entities like Bloomberg, NYSE, and NASDAQ will just offer their own on-chain oracle and bypass useless tokens. Since oracles are centralized and trusted anyway, a these oracles would be superior to anything Chainlink can provide.

ReallyOrdinaryMan

Link is scam. DONT CLICK LINK

MarquesDosAguas

ICP is the most underrated utility token. Unlike LINK or XRP, it powers a full-stack decentralized platform—not just oracles or payments. Self-custody via Internet Identity (no seed phrases) Staking rewards via the NNS (no slashing, no custodians) Smart contracts that serve web apps directly No need for IPFS, RPCs, or frontends—everything runs on-chain. It’s not just a token. It’s a new internet architecture.

pumpcalc

Honestly I'd go for Chainlink (LINK). But that's a big IF because current market climate seems to not care about utility or tokens at all. If Ethereum grows, Chainlink will too. Goldfinch (GFI) is another interesting one, but I'd be more careful about that one. But if you are simply tired of gambling and stuff, maybe you should stick to the basics: ETH.

Specialist-Mixx

Not really weird. I haven’t done my research on it, and the upside is unclear. Will LINK be the burn token for these transactions? What drives value to the chain? If the underlying tech and blockchain is utilized, without any way to monetize it, it becomes a fruitless endeavour for anyone buying LINK. Like I said, I haven’t done my research..

panthera_N

Coins that did not appear on r/cc but were praised when the price was at its peak include AIZ16, FARTCOIN, SUI, SOLANA, XRP, HBAR, LINK, LTC 🤣🤣🤣

CynthiaTWilkerson

We might see a new ATH for Bitcoin. Ethereum’s gearing up for an even bigger pump, considering the success of Pectra's ugrade and LINK looks like it could close in on $20. EOS rebrand to Vaulta has already stirred serious momentum. It recently nearly touched $1. With the ticker change and full transition rolling out, even bigger price action could be right around the corner

CynthiaTWilkerson

Spread it on solid coins. Go 70% with BTC and ETH as your foundation, then drop the remaining 30% across SOL, SUI, EOS, LINK, and a bit of stables.

CynthiaTWilkerson

Any of ETH, SOL, A (formerly EOS), or LINK should do the job. These are solid dino picks still standing strong and still printing profits.

Distinct-Thanks-6477

It's mostly because lots are balls deep in altcoins haha. It's the same for me as well but i happen to have bought my favorite alts at favorable positions. TAO, RENDER, LINK, AIOZ are all awesome!
