The crypto market still has the potential to climb higher, have a look at the coins that can be your profitable partners for the next weeks and months.
In search of promising investment opportunities, it would be absolute madness to ignore cryptocurrencies. In a single year – 2020, the market capitalization rose from $200 million to $1 trillion and today it reaches $1.2 trillion. While everyone knows about Bitcoin and Ethereum, most coins stay in the shadows. But there are some cryptocurrencies with big potential that deserve your attention. Let’s explore 5 altcoins with hidden powers for exponential growth!
A Few Words about the Kings
While Bitcoin sounds both ‘promising’ and ‘scary’ to most people, altcoins might seem unclear. It’s no surprise. The BTC price is flirting with the $60,000 mark as the main cryptocurrency represents 60% of the whole market. During the last 11 months, Bitcoin rose from $4,800 to almost $60,000 (actually, it has already hit this mark but then has lost around 7%) and still has the potential to move higher. BTC must be the base in any crypto portfolio.
Ethereum is a contender for the title of ‘king’. Its price rose 14 times during 2020. Space for exponential growth is still there. With its $1,800 price and $205 million in market cap, ETH must be the second choice in your portfolio. But how to fill the remaining space… ?
The Way to Gold Ingots
Making x10-15 in profits on your initial funds in just 1 year sounds crazy to traditional investors. But it’s a reality of crypto enthusiasts. There are some coins like Yearn Finance (YFI) which add x30, x40 or even more in value, in just a few months. But many of them are too young to be called ‘proven’. Instead, we chose 5 altcoins with great inner potential that must surely boom in the not too distant future!
