My 3 tips to Crypto Success!

in steem •  7 years ago 

        I have been in the Crypto space for 7 months now. I will share with you 3 tips that has work well for me . Follow them to help grow your crypto  portfolio.  There are other pointers of course but these are my top 3.  Hope they help you in your Crypto adventure.  Incorporate them as you develop your own unique style.  Each person is unique in that  each one has different financial goals, risk tolerance, and  investment capital.  Do your due diligence and only invest funds that you can afford to lose.

         First tip :  Do your  own due diligence.  This is so key. Don't just invest based on what people say. Do the homework.  Read about the crypto you are interested in and really study its merits.  Start with  basics and  read up on  bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and blockchain technology.  Really understand the  blockchain technology  behind  cryptocurrency. See how this technology  is the wave of the future and that mass adoption will eventually  occur.  Get familiar with  Coin Market Cap and  get familiar with top  20-30 coins listed.  You must immerse yourself in studying cryptocurrency.  This is the big time.  Pretenders will be eaten alive and lose their money.  From here you can select top coins and study up on them. Read what people are saying. Take it for  a grain of salt and  research to see if  you come up with the same conclusion. You've got to become "the man."  You have to  make your own decisions and be accountable for them. After all,  it is your money and no one cares more about it  more than you. Your  agenda is to  to grow i! Others have other agendas and it is usually for their own benefit and gain. Be cautious and don't be gullible.  Decide for yourself! Count only  on yourself.

          Second tip:  "Buy and hold."  This is my favorite. I just  invest my monies on top coins (ie  LTC, BTC, Ethereum, Monero)  and  load up on them as big as I can.  Increasing my ps everytime the market "dips" and the prices  become  a bargain.  These coins are steady and have good track records.  They will lead the charge as  cryptocurrency goes mainstream.  They will rise and rise big. Only question is, how much do you have of them. It is all about coin collection.  Hold big positions in them and  profit big when they inevitably  rise in price.  All this is based on the premise that cryptocurrency / blockchain technology  is the future and  will  be a world wide adoption.  This will be historic and represent the biggest transition of wealth.  A  financial revolution to say the least.

           Third tip :  Diversify, diversify,  and diversify.  You've got to spread your investments. Spread it among different platforms  (ie mining, lending platforms). Don't put all your eggs  in one basket.  Spread the risk and  diversify.  You've got to stay in the game to allow your investments to grow. 

            Like I said, there are other important tips but these are my top 3. Use them wisely and I hope they work as well for you as they have done for me. Good  luck and may your trades go in your favor.

Previously with all the altcoin hype in the market it was more pertinent than ever to do your own research around certain coins. Thankfully I am still up overall, but I did take a minuscule hit with Tron and Verge currently, buying into their hype. Oh well, such is a learning experience.

I have only been involved in cryptocurrency for about 2 months, and these are things that I have since learned but wish I would have known starting out.
When I first started, my first $1000 investment was not diversified at all and I still regret that. I also began buying alt coins at the advice of others and soon learned it is very necessary to do my own research and not let my emotions get involved when making decisions.
Thanks for your post! These are definitely things newbies need to know.

I guess I’m doing pretty well then. I’ve spent the last two months eating this stuff up, trying to learn about as many coins as I can and different perspectives on each coin. Now that I’m “kinda” familiar with about 100 of them, I’m trying to erase that “kinda”, read white papers of the ones I’m most intrigued by.

I did see my earnings drop 30% this week but I’m in it for the long haul, they could just as easily jump 200% tomorrow :-D

I believe these are the three most important tips in investing in the crypto space! There are a lot of $hitcoins out there and many can be outed by reading the whitepaper and doing quality due diligence.

I think HODLing over the long term is a much safer strategy than day trading. Some guys (the pros) can be more successful than most at it, but it can be risky!

I have a feeling that many people buy a coin just because the price is low but do not take into account supply or market cap..

These 3 steps are really easy to follow. Doing our own research and don't depend on what people say is so true. I really have a limited fund so I can't be buying everything when so many are saying the crypto that they buy are good to boost the price up for those crypto. Thanks for sharing your honest crypto experience and I am sure many newbies can benefit from this post. An upvote from me too.

im new in crypto and lost some in starting because i was just jumping every coin which was going up and because of it lost some but now i follow some groups which gives good singles. Atleast now i'm in little profit :)

I need some information. Could you help ?

What do think is the best way to do in this bearish markets?

Don't Follow the Hype...Don't sell in loss....bcz BTC need 15000$ + to go to double where your coin will need a very Less....if you are holding something 0.1$ or 1$ coin.

Keep Patience! If you see the market red....don't get panic!

thanks for the tips! this is very helpful to newbies like me who wants to learn about cryptocurrency...

I started out buying through recommendations from others, didnt turn out bad, am my own man now tho and everyday am threatend to sell, lol

good advice. invest what you can afford to lose and never put it in one basket.

actually i agree with you and in my stance those three tips are the best that everybody should follow in investing crypto thank you
