Are you also getting a wallet?
If so, which one is your favorite?
$BTC (+0.1%)
$LTC (-0.03%)
$ADA (-0.5%)
$ETH (-1.18%)
$MATIC (+0.75%)
$FTM (+2.67%)
$SHIB (-0.98%)
I would be interested to know which cryptos you consider interesting at the moment or for the future and already have in your portfolio or want to get in soon?
It feels like there are now an infinite number, so it's very difficult to keep an overview ^^
$BTC (+0.1%) & $ETH (-1.18%) are of course out of the question and already in the portfolio anyway (I'm also adding to it)
But what other cryptocurrencies do you own?
A few of my ideas would be:
The Fantom network is coming back into focus.
Over the coming weeks, Layer 1 will be undergoing its most important network upgrade to date.
In anticipation of this $FTM (+2.67%)the network's native token has recorded a price increase of around 200% in the last 30 days.
Here's everything you need to know - in a nutshell:
Fantom is an alternative layer-1 network that was launched by crypto and DeFi OG Andre Cronje, among others, and is currently being co-developed.
The Sonic upgrade is now set to is intended to significantly increase Fantom's performance and thus bring developers and users back to layer 1.
During test runs on the Sonic testnet, the network was able to achieve a throughput of around 2,000 transactions per second.
Outlook
The trade around alternative layer-1 blockchains has experienced a renaissance in recent months.
With the use of DAG technology and its unique consensus mechanism, Fantom has enough differentiation to capture the imagination of investors.
The extent to which they can attract developers to their network is another matter.

Hi👋
After spending the first few months on this platform as a silent reader, I would now like to provide some input.
About me: 20 years young, currently in the 3rd semester of my studies and also working as a student trainee in the automotive industry.🙂
I started investing myself almost exactly two years ago at the beginning of December 2021. For the DWS fund in my custody account, my father invested a mid-three-figure amount for my birth and for my communion and left it to me on my 18th birthday.
#etfs I started with 4 ETFs myself, one World, one on the S&P, the Future Mobility and the now better-known AI&Big Data ETF. I saved 25 euros a month in each of these for just under a year. 2022 was generally not going too well, at that time the AI and the Future Mobility ETF (which is still in the red) were clearly in the red, which is why I decided to reorganize the whole thing at the end of 2022 and no longer save in these two sector ETFs. I have switched the S&P to an emerging markets fund.
At the beginning of 2023, I finally started working as a student trainee, which naturally meant I had more capital available to invest from then on. I then made pretty much all the rookie mistakes you can make: Paying attention only to dividends, Canadian penny stocks, leveraged wildly, etc. Of course there were also better picks in between like $INTC (+2.5%) or $DHL (-4.07%) which I plan to continue to hold.
In the meantime, I tend to stay away from individual stocks and rely more on my savings plans. At the moment, the allocation is by savings rate:
-200€/month $LCUW
-70€/month $EIMI (-0.37%)
-50€/month $IUIT (-7.87%)
All this with a net income of around €800 over the last 12 months (including temporary jobs). In addition to the €320, there are also investments in cryptocurrencies and the above-mentioned individual shares & beginner's mistakes, which means I invested around 75 percent of my income last year. Of course, this is only possible because I still live at home and have virtually no expenses (apart from vacations and other leisure activities).
Now to the #cryptos
Over the year 2022, I have invested very heavily $ETH (-1.18%) and $LINK (-0.88%) accumulated so that I was able to achieve a good buy-in there. I am very confident in Chainlink and its development team, which is why I can go to sleep with a clear conscience despite the high investment. At $SOL (-1.08%) I was only able to get myself into a small position during the FTX crash, which of course makes me regret not having gone in a little more from today's perspective. Over the last few months $BTC (+0.1%)
$DOT (-1.07%) and with the arrival of the Christmas bonus $FTM (+2.67%) I have invested a total of just over 6,000 euros in cryptocurrencies. I have no further purchases planned there. I am aware of the high risk, but I am positive about the next 1-2 years. When the prices are right, I also plan to sell shares step by step 🙂
So far so good, now a few general points:
The current total value of around €22,000 is made up of €13,500 in deposits, around €4,500 in DWS funds and around €4,000 in price gains. I am of course very satisfied with the price performance for 2023; like many here, I was able to outperform the market as a whole thanks to the high proportion of cryptos.
Targets for 2024:
As far as the new year is concerned, I have not set any targets for the portfolio value, as I will probably not have such high investment rates next year and the volatility is very high due to the cryptos. Apart from that, of course, I want to keep up the pace at university and get a place for a semester abroad at the beginning of 2025 (the reason for the lower savings rates in 2024😉).
Otherwise, thank you for reading and the (hopefully) kind words and I wish you all a happy new year and a successful stock market year 2024!
Market sentiment is like a yo-yo right now as we top up another 10 points. Firstly we went up 12, then down 11 and now back up 10 points. This puts bitcoin trading at ≈24.5k all in the back of slightly better inflation data. But we're certainly not out of the woods, but this is some welcome relief.
Many Top100 projects are posting up to double digit gains like:
$BTC (+0.1%)
$ETH (-1.18%)
$AVAX (-0.79%)
$FTM (+2.67%)
$MATIC (+0.75%)
$ATOM (+1.86%)
$SOL (-1.08%)
$NEAR (-0.43%)
Its maybe worth looking at $XRP (-0.48%) as the recovery there is still kind of marginal compared to the other mentioned top tiers.
Looks like another day of 31 and a near identical 23.1k for bitcoin too. However, Decred, DCR, jumped 95% overnight. This comes after the lead developer for Decred tweeted that the updated proposal to upgrade the website and messaging is already prepared and is just waiting for reimbursement and deployment clearance. Decred has also returned to the top 100 cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization.
Filecoin, Near Protocol, Theta Network, and Oasis Network all had good gains overnight too but Optimism wasn't able to continue the push and dropped around 4%.
$BTC (+0.1%)
$DCR (+2.4%)
$NEAR (-0.43%)
Do we see XRP and FTM back in its fourtees very soon?
Go $XRP (-0.48%) Go $FTM (+2.67%)
Have a great weekend!
A slight gain of one point sees market sentiment at 31 while bitcoin is trading close to 23.1k, almost identical to yesterday at the same time.
Optimism loses 6% of its previous gains and is trading at $1.99. It's a 50/50 of gains and losses in the altmarket. Might be a slow close to the weekend.
Stable single digit gains for many majors like $MATIC (+0.75%)
$AVAX (-0.79%)
$BNB (-0.12%)
$FTM (+2.67%)
$ETH (-1.18%)
$XRP (-0.48%)
$ATOM (+1.86%) and even $SOL (-1.08%)
Cheers for
Have a great weekend
