| So I created a Crypto Index Fund of 35 Cryptos and I'm holding for 1 Year - A Case Study Posted: 24 Nov 2017 08:12 AM PST I've decided to document my journey with an experiment in crypto investing that involves creating a Crypto Index Fund of sorts. With a nod and hat tip to Brett McLain (http://blog.mclain.ca/31-crypto-currencies-week-1/) who was the inspiration for this experiment, as he enters week 14 of his own. Where my experiment differs is in the number of cryptos selected, as well as the style of selection. Brett went with the Top 30 (actually he used 31 in the end) by Market Cap. For my experiment, I shall be selecting 35 cryptos that I've hand selected. First, let's get the rules set. The Rules
Why Am I Doing This Experiment? Primarily, this is a thought experiment for me. It's also a method that I hope proves whether a diversified portfolio is more effective in the long run than holding a single (or few) cryptos. I have longterm holds in a numbers of coins over a long period of time. This small-scale thought experiment is separate to that. And why do I think an "crypto index fund" is such a good idea? This: That's a picture of the whole crypto market cap over the last year. It's rising constantly (especially in the last few months), and is only set to grow more (and more rapidly). So an index fund that tracks a large segment of the market should be a really good thing. My profit will rise as the overall crypto market cap rises. That's what this experiment is all about. And if it isn't a good thing, we will see. The Cryptos Here are the cryptocurrencies I selected (listed by price):
A lot of research and thought went into selecting these 35. I don't want to get into too much detail about why I chose individual cryptos (although that might come later). First, I will answer the two most macro of questions first:
This is pretty simple. I wanted a large enough amount that would justify an "index fund" without being unwieldy. As this isn't a traditional index fund, it would be ridiculously complex to buy 100s of cryptos individually and then be able to store them somewhere. I think 35 is a good number that allows for diversification and balance, without being too complex and unwieldly.
Whether all of these 35 cryptos will turn out to be successful (and I define success as giving me at least a 1.5x ROI in a year), will be an interesting part of the experiment. I chose these 35 for specific reasons individually and I made sure to choose a number of project types - straight up currencies, platforms, dApps, protocols, etc. In this index fund, there will be small total supply coins, large total supply coins, large market cap coins, small market cap coins, old projects, new projects and everything in between. But all of them are good projects, I believe. Time will tell and I invite questions and discussion about the cryptos themselves in the comments. Based on their Market Cap rankings, I put the 35 cryptos into a number of types that I'll explain a bit here:
The cryptos in The Big Boys section are pretty obvious. The established and time-tested players like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dash fit here. In the Second Tier we have the potential future stars. Cryptos like NEO, OmiseGO and Lisk fit comfortably here. Whilst The Emerging Upstarts are filled with newer projects that are super solid, for example: Walton Chain, PowerLedger and Chainlink. By selecting older and newer projects in this "crypto index fund" I'm hoping to leverage both money coming into the established/known cryptos, as well as potentially making bigger market cap jumps with some of the new projects that have far to run. Potential Issues With the Experiment Some obvious issues with my method became apparent pretty quickly:
Some coins were near all-time-highs, which will naturally skew the experiment a little and make it a little harder for them to succeed…at least in the early stages of the experiment. For example, Bitcoin happened to be very near its ATH when I bought it for the experiment. NEO and AdEx were also very near their tops.
Moving Forwards I bought these cryptos on Tuesday 21st November. I will, therefore, be doing a weekly update every Tuesday where I chart the experiment's progress. I'll be including charts/graphs in future updates, so that we can see a visual representation of what's going on. I'll be making a site to chronicle this experiment and give it a home. Let me know what you think of my plan - I'm open to constructive criticism and any thoughts you might have.

| Why don’t more people seem to be up in arms about IOTA’s transition, reclaim, etc? Posted: 24 Nov 2017 01:35 PM PST That looks like a total mess. How are they getting away with this and still having such a high market cap? [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Bittrex is doing some policy updates: email in text Posted: 24 Nov 2017 06:06 PM PST Dear This email is to communicate policy changes for placing orders on Bittrex. As you know, Bittrex is committed to providing fair and efficient price discovery and these changes are designed to improve the overall trading experience on our markets.
Removing stale orders: Effective today, Bittrex will be removing orders that are older than 28 days. As we've communicated in the past, many of these orders have no reasonable expectation of being filled and clog the order books.
Raising the minimum trade size: Within the next 2 weeks, the minimum allowable trade value for orders will go from 50,000 Satoshi to 100,000 Satoshi. We will also require a minimum trade quantity on a per market basis.
Creating minimum tick sizes: Within the next 2 weeks, on a per market basis, we will be instituting minimum tick sizes that are based on the current price of the market. The target is to have minimum trade sizes that are near 0.1% ofthe current price. The current minimum tick size is 1 Satoshi. For example, Ethereum trades at 0.0577 Bitcoin. Bids and asks can only be placed in 0.0001 increments. So the next levels allowable levels on the order book will be 0.0576 and 0.0578.
A general statement about market manipulation tactics: Bittrex actively discourages any type of market manipulation, including pump groups. Consistent with our terms of service, we will suspend and close any accounts engaging in thistype of activity and notify the appropriate authorities.
For more details around these policy changes, see this article.https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003004171

| Any insight into why the crypto markets are experiencing such a boon at the moment? Posted: 24 Nov 2017 09:06 AM PST I've noticed from coinmarketcap that there's a lot of money coming into varied coin markets. As of now, the market cap is up seven billion in one day, and 87 billion since October 29th. Is there something specific driving this trend or is it up in the air what the causes might be?

| Poe, bcpt, eng going on bittrex [PROOF] Posted: 24 Nov 2017 10:08 AM PST Bittrex test wallet: https://etherscan.io/address/0xC892E9036E9a7bD657b65078829BE18B6856a791 You can confirm this by looking at all the previous coins and timestamps. This was discovered a while ago, but it leaked yesterday. The wallet leaked before the zrx tx. The link, zrx, and everything past that are fake (anyone can send coins to the contract to pump their coin) Eng poe and bcpt are real. Eng had a separate bittrex rumour simultaneously to the tx, some insider found out and told people, it pumped 60% already. The poe tx is the most legit. It was sent from the founders wallet that was used for their token burn. You can expect it to list in the next week You can see the founders wallet here: https://etherscan.io/address/0x4adc207e73ff2f8738c7a9e3dbace389b45d92d2 It holds 100m poe, controlled by the coin team. The most recent tx is 10k to the bittrex test. BCPT is at the same time as the other 2 so it is likely real. The poe one is the most legit though, by far. ENG already pumped. If you decide to buy this rumour, I'd look at bcpt and poe. [link] [comments]  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
