What was your first altcoin you have either mined or invested in?

[rekter 8129]

In other words, how was your introduction on altcoins? What was the one that got you started with and is the project still going?

 

If i wouldn't count my first short Darkcoin (now Dash) failed try, my first was Flappycoin, that project is obviously dead now and it was basically a joke to begin with based on Flappy Bird game.

 

I had no idea what i was doing, so i mined it and got some free airdrops from dev i think. When i tried to sell it on Cryptsy (former exit scam exchange) the price was under 1 satoshi and i had to wait until there was an LTC pair to trade it with. And funny enough, i actually managed to make some money with it.

The alt coin i have ever mined actually, well there are quite a number of them but only just less than three of them seams to be for real and valid, these includes ETN, I using their official app, and also pht also using their cloud minning official app, but the speed at which they mine is slow.

Haha, that's a funny story. My first serious altcoin I started working with was Dogecoin and I like the memes behind it until today. Dogecoin is perfect for quick and smaller transactions and exchanges usually don't ask for a big withdrawal fee for Dogecoin.

Doge coin s the most coins that different individuals tends to start with in these recent days when joining the crypto world, i think this is all because of its huge volume of availability and cyculation, only that this has also affected its demand cycle and price value

Yeah, Dogecoin doesn't have a limited supply, so it will basically last forever without any difficulties. Dogecoin also doesn't have block halving, making it the perfect way to transfer funds with a small fee. Do you like this altcoin too?

The first altcoin that I bought in Yobit was ETH. It was profitable as the first altcoin investment. I haven't mined any altcoin yet. I just buy and sell them. After I experienced ETH in my trades, I decided to add it to my portfolio forever. Yes, ETH project is still running strong. After ETH I bought LTC in Yobit and it also brought good rewards for me. The reason you failed is that you started with weak altcoins. I haven't even heard the name of some of the coins you mentioned! Always start with top 10 altcoins and after you learned how to trade with them, you can try other coins but remember that altcoins are never as reliable as bitcoin.

not really, i don't like it for some holding, in other to make some profits from selling it out when it price value increase, Wich never happens, i prefer aquiring tokkens that have price fluctuations one in a while so as i can buy and resell for profit,.

i was introduced to STELLAR when they first distribute their coin to the verified facebook users. I got about 16K of it after verifying my account. There were tons of cheaters during that time while 1000STR were just worth $3.  Stellar wasn't XLM that time too.

Maww that would actually make you sime good money as of now if those amount happen to be invested in some good investment, the problem that usually occures is that when this projects are anouce one tend to think it all just a wast of time and not grab the opportunity

True. I didn't think of it as investment during that time. I was just introduce to it when an friend told me to take the airdrop. I lost it all though. I forgot my password to my account.

My first altcoin invested was ethereum. Until now it is still active and has a foothold in the market. about 2 years ago I invested in eth and until now I have never regretted it. I prefer to keep it.

2 years ago? Well that was unlucky timing, was it on the near top or during the crash? Hopefully you have been averaging your buy in on the way down. Eth is a good choice for a first altcoin tho, way more mature then my investments were back then.

The first altcoin I own is ethereum and litecoin. I researched the market and the coins, of course I liked bitcoin but I didn't qualify and I bought ethereum and litecoin with savings. I started not easy and even depression. Thankfully I got over it. I still feel proud of ethereum and litecoin. I hold them quite a lot.

[Shahud 1319]

i was not interested i mining .so i use to do some small trades and participate in  airdrops but now i am working on pie network mining process .my friend introduced me to this network.but i didn't recieve my first payment yet

[NevermindNe 549]

For me, It was a Dogecoin, because at the very beginning of my journey in cryptocurrencies, I didn't have any money at all, and I could only afford to invest in it.

[Syedbesharat 5423]

Mine first coin was doge coin .Which i buy in bulk and then i start buying more coins and for mining it was also doge coin.Those coins are not still my possession their value is not much but i use them for fee .

[kadayakito 765]

litecoin and ripple are my first altcoins. I like bitcoin but because I can't afford it, I bought ripplr and litecoin first. I then bought ethereum. ethereum is now my main altcoin. ripple and litecoin are not of much value, so I work less with them.

[bachnhuc8273 231]

Mine proximate coin was doge coin .Which i shop in bulk and then i start buying more coin and for mining it was also dge coin.Those coin are not still my chose thir value is not much but i increment them for fee 

[qua186386 226]

My primary altcoin invested was ethereum. Until today it is still active and has a foothold in the market. words 2 years ago I invested in eth and until tonight I have usually regretted it. I prefer to hold it

[Syed Al Mamun 876]

I like to store the Crypto currency, in this regard i always store different different coins. My Crypto life became start by my one friend who suggested me to buy Dogecoin, more interesting thing is that still i am storing and selling the Dogecoin.

[Saboor 511]

When I came into cryptocurrency, my first coin I have ever minted is the Monero, I have mined Monero when it was new to cryptocurrency

[BTC Future 3946]

I've bought and traded lots of altcoins. Although I didn't actually held them for too long. It was obvious in 2017 that they were all in a huge bubble and I was even afraid to hold them for the hours I'd be in bed. I think that the first altcoin I've bought was Ripple.

[Jaysen0104 536]

I use ripple coin in an investment because i see it capability to give me good profit. And also even if it has low value the good thing is it has low deposit and withdrawal fee. For me ripple is good to invest aside from bitcoin.

In fact, I have not tried any of these things, I feel that they are a waste of time, that is, we can get real profits from other things such as trading, for example, either to prosecute the 5 Satoshi and the 10 Satoshi, whether from leverage or from games or faucets, I did not try any of them because I I wasn't convinced about it, it's just a waste of time.
