If you want to get rich with #crypto with a higher degree of certainty then you need a longer time frame. Here are a few ideas.
Learn how to dollar cost average into fundamentally strong coins. If you had bought $100 of BTC every week since the 2017 peak until today you would be $80,000 in profit.
Understand the power of compounding. Coins like Ethereum, Polka Dot, and Cardano offer staking. This allows you to stack more coins using your existing coins. This can be HUGE!
Lend and yield farm, but on safer more established platforms. multi 1000% yields carry huge risk, but getting 50% or more can easily be done on safer platforms like Bancor. Using Nexus Mutual for insurance further reduces risk.
Learn that the higher risk the coin, the lower the position size you will likely want to have. Do not go all in on some random low cap coin, instead put in 1% or less of your total portfolio. The upside may not be as dramatic, but the risk is way lower.
Learn how to use stablecoins to your advantage. Yield farming with stables can bring huge rates, and having stables on hand let's you buy the dips.
Become tax efficient. Lower your tax burned as much as legally possible. This includes long term vs short term gains, tax harvesting, and perhaps even changing countries or starting a trust.
Rebalance your portfolio and take profits. When a random altcoin becomes 30% of your portfolio then consider taking profits and putting those gains back into BTC or USDC.
Zoom out, most investors are thinking about tomorrow, not many are thinking about 5 years from now. Remember most over estimate what they can do in a year, but under estimate what they can in 5.

If you want to try and get rich quick in #crypto then here are a few ideas.
Dog memes, this intensely over saturated market is an "investor" favorite. Everyone wants to repeat the success of Shiba Inu which went up 33,000% in a month. In reality 99.9% of investors will lose money chasing these dog coins. But everyone wants to be the exception.
Leverage trading. You can get 100x leverage turning your 1 BBTC into 100BTC trading power! Wow! Except many "traders" have little understanding of liquidation & funding mechanisms. 90% of traders lose 90% of their account in the first 90 days. Be careful!

#altcoinseason 2021 is going to way way crazier than 2017! Here's why

1 - There are now multiple blockchains running smart contracts applications that actually have users. 2017 was basically all about #Ethereum
2 - There have never been so many fiat on ramps. Cashapp, Paypal, Robinhood, and all the crypto native exchanges. It has never been easier for retail to enter the market.
3 - So many working products. We have amazing #defi platforms like Aave, Uniswap, and Synthetix. And dozens of new comers.

Here's why I am bullish on #ethereum!

Thread 👇
Ethereum has an incredible lead in terms of network effect. Deep liquidity. And the most developers by far. It will take years for a competitor to catch up. All the time eth will continue to grow.
Eip 1559 will introduce fee burning for #ethereum meaning it will likely become a deflationary coin

Risk management is the biggest factor that will determine getting wealthy investing without getting lucky.
#bitcoin #ethereum #crypto
Take profits when you see massive market pumps happen. Broken record here, but even taking your initial capital back out can make a huge difference.
Keep position sizing according to risk. High risk altcoins, and ICOs should not be more than like 1 to 3% of your portfolio. The risk of loss is too high to go higher, but the upside potential is massive.

Here;s my #crypto portfolio
#1 #bitcoin 22% ideal number is 50% of my portfolio, less now because other investments have gone up and I have not significantly rebalanced yet.

Lending about 40%, trading account about 20%, cold storage 40%.

Continually add more, long term hold
#2 $usdc 14%
This is almost all lent out. I use Blockfi, cryptodotcom, and Yearn for earning yield on my stablecoins. Not much extra after that though since I just invested in 2 token sales, and bought a little dip action.
#3 #ethereum 13.5%
I keep adding to this position and am very bullish on its future.
Lending most of it out via Blockfi, cryptodotcom, and Yearn Vaults and earning a nice bit of extra $eth as a result.
