It's been a more erratic ride the last few days in crypto, and with my first year in crypto coming to a close, and my second month of Steemit underway, I thought I'd list what I'm currently holding, in addition to Steem.
I am not day trading anything, and have done only a couple of 2-day swing trades on LTC, but otherwise I am a long term HODLER. My current holdings are:
- BTC
- ETH
- LTC
I started with these and plan to continue holding.
- NEO
- GAS
NEO and GAS were my next additions, a few months ago.
- IOTA
I later added IOTA on the basis of it's possible use in so many projects in 2018.
- QSP
- RDN
QSP and RDN I took positions in after a number of conversations with people who know more than I do about their possible practical applications.
- BCC
I recently interviewed Bitcoin Cash's Roger Ver (Interview here: https://steemit.com/dtube/@davidpakman/zp9x9utr ) . Although I have no taken a broader position on BCC vs BTC or BCC vs LTC, its listing on Coinbase does suggest that it is here to stay and thus I have taken a position in it.
Are you worried about the current dip? Are you holding, trading, buying/selling? What are you looking at for 2018?
I hodl mainly steem and some XVG, cardano and SMART.
I mainly focus on steem as I expect great things to happen in the near future.

SBD is not designed to hold it is designed to be used. I recommend selling it, as it will likely return to $1 value as it is meant to be.
With that said here is what I am holding
BTC
ETH
STEEM
BCH
ICN
DICE
XRP
BAT
RDN

I’m into a more of holding investment strategy currently, as I believe we are still in the very early stages of blockchain technology, There might be a crash sometime in the future, but this I believe should not impact on the long-term success of blockchain tech, and cryptocurrency.
After the Internet bubble burst in the early 2000s, Internet companies still grew after the crash and became very successful e.g Amazon. I did not continue with my Internet business after the DOT.COM crash, but in hindsight, I wish I had.
I tend to do research on the company when deciding whether or not to buy their cryptos. I look at the utility of the coin, i.e is it a platform based offering like Ethererum, EOS or Cordano. I determine if there is a potential, that people will use the coin as a utility. If they can it's more likely it will grow its user base and grow in future value. I also look at the people behind the company offering the cryptocurrency. I look to see if they have a previous track record in project/product delivery and have a relevant industry background.
Also, I, look to see if the cryptocurrency improves on any of the technical shortcomings of the previous cryptocurrency offerings. The white papers are useful to research this information. All of these areas factor into my purchasing decisions and if I chose to invest long-term in that crypto currency

Smaller Holdings:
VET
DOGE
GCR

FUCKToken
The I sent some Steem to buy, but I don't know what they are doing:
SportsPodium Pods
The First thing I bought that's probably a Facebook Scam:
PLEXCoin
That about covers everything. Few little odds and ends, but these are the only significant things I have in my bag at the moment.

Nice to see you have QSP on your list. POWR is another one that is worth taking a look at. I won't bother trying to sell it, but look into it and I think you'll like it.

Not bad. I have a few variations...AICoin is one I have quite a large stake in, and it sort of acts more like a stock, than a CC. XMR I've always liked; it will be around for it's privacy if nothing else. IOTA, EOS, and Cardano are a few I've aquired recently and Dash, Bytecoin, and Bitcoin Cash I've had for quite some time.
I have said, almost preached this for a good year...The Cryptocurrency Markets are not for the faint of heart. They are always volatile, but they always rebound, and when they do, they always level back out higher than before. Buying low and holding is a must In this market.
It will be interesting to see what 2018 brings, especially with the main stream now in the Crypto Markets. Personally, I liked things the way they were. We are getting bombarded with token after token and ICOs are coming out of the woodwork. Hopefully, once people realize they can't just create a coin or ICO and instantly become rich, some of this will slow down.
Great post, btw, it made for an interesting conversation:).

David, I'm a long time member of the show. Look into BAT: Basic Attention Token. Its something that YouTubers (and creators in general) should be aware of. It could change the way content producers are compensated for their efforts.

Steem makes for an intriguing hold going into 2018. The anticipated launch of smart media tokens may spur further interest in the steem blockchain from the broader crypto community, but we'll see.
SBDs have outperformed steem in both USD and percentage terms in recent weeks - perhaps due to their limited supply relative to steem. I would like to see steem catch up with the rest of the market though - at its highs in the summer of 2016, one steem was equal to over 0.006 bitcoin. In today's market that would be over $80 per steem, so there is an evident under performance versus bitcoin.

Bitcoin Cash has the potential to challenge BTC for the top crypto so good choice. Been watching BCC regain most of its losses from last downturn and now above 0.2 to a BTC it looks prime for more gains.

I'm holding quite a few, but my biggest by value right now is as follows:
ARK
BTC
ETH
LTC
BCH
Ark has been very good to me. One of the few ICOs I went for because I believed in what they were doing and there strategy of just knocking out their goals instead of spending a lot on advertising. They've only now hired a PR firm and it's done lovely things for their price, but I already recouped over ten x what I paid for it- now just letting it sit and earn me more ARK.
Ones I wish I have some but will be buying more as I can:
EOS
XRP
And I desperately need to get into DASH! That one took me totally by surprise, but the more I look into it the more I love what they are doing. I think they are going to be in it for the long haul.
