The next and biggest bull run has started.

And I am of the opinion that a lot more crypto millionaires will emerge after this.

Will you be one of them?

If you're lucky (or should I say smart enough) to catch one or more of the "fastest horses", you may.

I also think that several of the useless coins and tokens will die, merge, or get acquired and put to good use.

You wouldn't want to catch yourself holding the rotten tomatoes when the harsh reality settles.

That's why, in this post, I will be sharing with you the top 3 altcoins I'm never going to sell for the next 2 years.

And why you should consider having some in your portfolio too.

So, without much ado, here're the 3 coins in my sure bag that I'm riding to the moon.

NOTE: These are "my sure bags". They may not be your own sure bags. And it doesn't mean I am not exposed to other coins in the short and medium-term.

3 coins I'm not selling for the next 2 years

  1. Bitcoin (BTC)

  2. Ethereum (ETH)

  3. Binance Coin (BNB)

1. Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the first, most secure, and most liquid cryptocurrency. Enjoying over 70% of the entire cryptocurrency market cap.

It's being touted as the next global reserve currency.

And looking at the developments so far, it's well on it's way to toppling the dollar as the global reserve currency.

More institutional investors are gobbling up bitcoin. And a lot more are prepping to join in the buying spree in the months and years ahead.

I am of the opinion that Bitcoin below $100k is extremely undervalued. And institutional money will be the major driver of the Bitcoin price going forward.

5 Bullish facts about Bitcoin

  • Institutional investors interest is on the rise

  • Retail investors are now better informed and smarter

  • Supply keeps shrinking while demand is ever on the rise. Bitcoin will only keep getting scarcer with time.

  • The rising global economic crisis and political tensions. People need ways to move money across borders seamlessly and securely.

  • The fast depreciating of fiat currencies adds to the appeal of Bitcoin as a wealth preservation tool.

Bitcoin enjoys a strong first-mover advantage and a strong network effect.

And as long as the network remains strong, it's not easy for any other coin to displace Bitcoin as the number one most preferred cryptocurrency.

Dear Bitcoin minimalists, please displace Bitcoin before you argue. Otherwise, your argument is not valid. Do it before you tell the world. Thank you 'sers'.

2. Ethereum

Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. And powers more than 90% of the entire DeFi ecosystem. Talk about "network effect".

I have previously written an article on why Ethereum is the king of all altcoins.

By reading that post you will understand why holding Ethereum is a no-brainer for me.

Here're are the highlights of the post and why I am bullish on Ethereum

  • Ethereum has the largest ecosystem and developer community in the crypto industry.

  • Ethereum 2.0 – "the saviour" is on the horizon to address the high fees and scalability concerns. Which will make the chain faster, cheaper, with high transaction throughput.

  • Nearly all of the DeFi ecosystem is built on the Ethereum network. And a lot more dApps and smart contracts are being built and deployed every other day.

  • Over 70% of all tokens and the NFT market is hosted on the Ethereum network. 

  • If Bitcoin is the father of all cryptocurrencies, Ethereum is their mother.

I am aware of Ethereum high fees, slow network, and low latency problems.

But I am confident they will address these issues in Ethereum 2.0 and the network will retain a majority of its market share.

Until then, feel free to use other cheaper, faster, and effective blockchains like the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).

That is exactly what I am currently doing - switching entirely to BSC until Ethereum solves its gas fees problem which it is working on.

3. Binance Coin

Binance Coin (BNB) is the native cryptocurrency of the entire Binance ecosystem.

Bullish facts about BNB

  • Currently, there's a 176,406,561 maximum supply, after all, quarterly burns since 2017. It's originally 200 million.

  • Quarterly burn using a part of the Company's profit.

  • BNB is used to pay for gas (transaction) fees on the Binance Smart Chain. Similar to how ETH is used to pay for gas fees on the Ethereum network.

  • Binance Smart Chain is the second most successful, fastest-growing smart contracts blockchain after Ethereum. If I could make the decision to switch entirely to BSC due to Ethereum fees, I am almost certain that many others are doing the same.

  • BNB is the utility token of the Binance Exchange which entitles its holders to a multitude of benefits and perks. Binance Exchange is the largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume.

  • BNB is required to participate in the Binance Launchpad and Launchpool. Generating additional demand and use for the coin among others.

Combine a fixed maximum supply with quarterly burning and a rapidly growing userbase.

According to CZ -CEO of Binance, the BSC is slowly getting 30% to 40% of Ethereum volume.

What you have is a coin that will blow through the roof at the slightest sight of a bull run.

I am confident, BSC will take away nothing less than 15% to 25% of Ethereum's market share in the next 1 to 2 years. Thus potentially bringing massive value to BNB holders.

Conclusion

There're hundreds of very good cryptocurrencies in the market to invest in.

And this list should by no means be considered as exhaustive of all the best coins out there.

But if I were forced to pick 3 coins to hold for the next 2 years or more and not sell; I will choose the above without thinking twice.

The choice is mostly influenced by the fact that:

  • This 3 lead the pack of the most "secure" cryptocurrencies. Very unlikely to go to zero ever. Except, the entire crypto market burns.

  • They're functional chains with massive community support and great teams.

  • They still have the potential to do a 10X to 100X in the next 2 to 5 years.

PS: I will still be exposed to other great projects but would be regularly cashing out my profits into these three.

The goal is always to "strengthen my sure bag" for the moon mission.

These are good suggestions obviously but what about something with a smaller market cap?

Sure!

I will be experimenting with lots of other low caps, new projects, higher risk, etc projects. But profits from those will be used to grow the three above.

For example, I am currently farming a new token on BSC = FUEL with 2% daily APR. Once I'm done farming it, all profits will go into BNB most likely to grow my stack.

Rinse and repeat...

I sort of have a part of my portfolio in speculative trading/investing. As you will find in this post >> https://cryptosorted.info/how-to-effectively-diversify-your-cryptocurrency-portfolio/
