Diversification as a strategy is for lazy people who don't want to think and want to minimize fluctuations in their portfolio balance, not for people who want to make money. It's a defensive measure, not an offensive measure. You CANNOT become rich with a diversified portfolio. What people don't realize over the last 40 years is that stocks are now all correlated to each other and federal reserve pumps, so diversification is always going underperform meme bluechip stocks. Basically, the game is rigged.

With crypto, the game is less rigged, but diversification isn't protective because most shitcoins just go to zero. The lazy strategy doesn't work in the presence of so many outright scams. The safest strategy is to just dump everything in BTC because it has like 80% dominance of the entire cryptospace. If you want an aggressive strategy, you'll look for obvious pump and dump scams and get on early, get a safe 20-50% gain, then get out immediately and wait for the next one. They happen every week so it's not a big deal if you miss one or two and you're patient. Alternatively, if you can identify a really good project really early, you can buy a bunch and hold it for a few years and catch a 100x that way, but it takes YEARS. And you have to not sell. ETH and LINK believers fall in here, and I think PNK is the next big one.

Because we’re tired of seeing faggots with fractions of sub-$10 coins. Seriously most impoverished faggots on here, just like 2017, have $5 worth of every single coin on coinbase.

Nothing wrong with that. I was a bitcoin maxi for years just calmly DCA'ing in after the 18 crash, and that alone took me halfway through 6 figure hell. Now I'm "diversifying" by shifting my DCA into other coins (I got a LINK suicide stack and a PNK ascended make it stack). My next buy is XMR and I'm going to start mining XMR and ETH on my new PC build.

Every other crypto I've looked at looks like shit except MAYBE LTC, but I think XMR is superior.

Yeah, I didn't explain it well enough. Didn't mean to say invest only in 1, it's relative to the size I guess, but I don't see the point of diversifying past a few if you have a small folio. Surely you've seen threads with low 4 digit folios with ~10 different coins.

Concentration builds wealth and diversification maintains it. If you have $5000 or less make sure your due diligence is superb dump into to 1 or 2 tokens MAX and then sit and wait 12 months. Its boring but this is how you 100x. You find a golden goose and let her lay you some eggs.

"The concerns which fail are those which have scattered their capital, which means that they have scattered their brains also. They have investments in this, or that, or the other, here, there and everywhere. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket” is all wrong. I tell you “put all your eggs in one basket, and then watch that basket.” Look round you and take notice; men who do that do not often fail. It is easy to watch and carry the one basket."---Andrew Carnegie

I find that overdiversifying leaves one w pretty weak gains. As in if you have 2k, spread it in 8 coins (250/coin), even a 100% will be limited to just that one coin. Even if maybe 2 make +100% you only made 500 in this example. Plus whatever lower pumps happen in the other ones.
If you choose 2-3 coins you magnify that 100% across the trade. Generally, youll also be better acquainted w the price action of each coin and be able to time positions better.

Well overdiversifying is definitely going to lead to lower gains, the point is to limit the fluctuations of your entire portfolio. But bigger fluctuations can lead to higher gains as well as higher losses.

I guess it depends on how much time someone is willing to spend trading it too.

diversification is advice for people who are risk adverse and prefer slow and steady gains. It works best for people who want to GROW money they already have earned. However if you are poorfag, especially bellow 5 figures, your main problem is that you have no money to grow. It means you must embrace risk as a way to EARN money. Forget diversification in that case. If you buy 5 coins, one moons, 3 crab and 1 dumps, congratulations, you basically did nothing. Your best shot, frankly, is flipping shitcoins until you have some actual big boy money you can invest into a low cap coin with high potential on the medium to long term. Only after your first succesful moon mission would it make sense to diversify. Also, DYOR
