Accidentally pressed lite coin. I meant to press shiba only because it’s been so good with rising. I’m new at investing though so don’t trust my judgment

@BREYZEHN @A007Kenny @CryptohGaga @gasparkles would love to get your thoughts here! Also I don’t know much about $LTC

There are others here far more expert than me whose take we need. My trusted family says that a very experienced long-term hodler is a proponent of $LTC (in addition to the usual suspects) with a long term price target of $1k. I’m much less experienced and more doubtful. It’s proof-of-work, has worse historical performance than $BTC but still tracks bitcoin, and it’s been a few years since it’s allSee more

Have you heard about faster than a speeding bullet? That is $LTC (say whaaaaaa…. We have Litecoin on #Public). Well, if not the fastest, it’s the second fastest blockchain for transactions. All the fans and many of the developers have shifted to $ETH due to its popularity and use case. So, of your list, $ETH will be my #1. $SHIB utilities are gaining but it has way too much hype so the price will correSee more

@A007Kenny I thought $LTC was faster than $BTC , but still relatively slow? (BTC is 7 transactions per second, ETH is 15, LTC is 56, ETH2.0 idk but I think in the five or six figures of TPS.) Litecoin is cheaper to transact. https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/litecoin-vs-bitcoin

I think $SHIB has lot of potential despite Elon not being invested in it. I think we're proving that we don't need his support for the currency to be successful, $DOGE meanwhile has his investments but is falling as the market shifts to $SHIB . Once robinhood fully releases crypto and $SHIB will skyrocket.

I hope this thread stays civil bc I think there can be some good takeaways. Other knowledgeable investors and/or experts whose take I’d love to read are @JamesCarter @k8thegreat @chefBOYiB @ianrountree .

The correct answers are ETH or LTC, if you honestly believe SHIB out compares the other options simply bc it’s highly profitable currently please remove this mentality. Just because it’s going on an absolute insane bull run does not reflect the stability and reliability of the coin. It is a MEME. Meaning the price can fluctuate however it wants and the losses can be great. Know what youre gettingSee more

$ETH is the clear winner, in my opinion. $DOGE has no utility other than making payments. $SHIB has some utility, but not nearly on the level of Ethereum. And it's clearly overbought at the moment and due for a correction. You could make money on it if you sell before the correction comes, but it's very risky.See more

☝️ I agree with @gasparkles I hope this stays civil. I tend not to say things against $DOGE / $SHIB because people get a little carried away. I will say that I'm not a fan of "meme" or "dream" coins as I believe @gasparkles commented in another post. I get the appeal, it's very very cheap to get in, there's hype, you look at $BTC and think "this is going to make me rich!".See more

:}) Ive gained 20$ in 2 days on #shib 50$ in and a 20$ profit in 2 days? Yes I will take that all day everyday ({:

The correct answer is $ETH

Shiba Inu all the way. Then DOGE with ETH and ETC and Litecoin all great next options. Also Bitcoin Cash.

I chose $SHIB because it's cheap and if it even goes to 1 cent I will have done well. Truly .005 would be great too.

You want to do yourself a massive favor look into SOL (Solana) everything on that blockchain is going to explode.

Invest in Shiba. It will rise more when it hits robinhood platform. Has so much potential. Get that 💰 🤑 💸 💲

Should add ADA and BTT(Programs that was notorious during the online music piracy). VGX, CRO and a brand new project, aiming to help vulnerable children around the world, Baby Bitcoin(bbtc). Just a few of mine. Please do your own research folks. Don't take my word for it. Best of luck to all.🙌🌞❤️

The deal with crypto is a long hold.... holding a high volume of token. Unless you have money to throw away buying a coin like BTC will give you profits but if you want life changing money..go for those in the sub pennies that are poised to be relevant in a few years time. Millionaires are made EVERYDAY in crypto but those new millionaires have been invested for a lot longer than 6 months.

$LTC is cool. Quick transactions, and significantly cheaper fees. cross mined with doge . Can be easily mined by anyone, but most of the mining is done by a small group. (Centralized-ish) Bitcoin also adopted some of the tech from litecoin like segwit and lightning. Paypal also announced support for litecoin at some point last year. Grayscale has been buying litecoin like mad people. BUT theSee more

@chefBOYiB it will soon be harvest season 🌳 Great seeds you’ve planted there. I need to plant some more myself.

$SHIB is the truth right now and has been on a 4day incredible run🔥🔥🔥

Ok so still in the name of keeping this civil... Even with all of that @BofAmuriel and anyone else who is apart of the #shibaarmy a $0.01 USD SHIB would have almost 5X THE MARKET CAP OF BTC.. (at current price) And that's just at $0.01... When I hear people say it's going to $1 and beyond to become the next Bitcoin.. It just doesn't make sense. With that said.. People are Adults on here andSee more

Shiba is right now. There us an auto burn function that will help creat the coin wealth. Plus its a community based coin meaning those who buy it can burn it

Shib is hot right now but I wouldn't count on it "making you rich". It'll prolly end up like Doge. Ethereum is the #2 crypto. I'm invested in both tho

Market data powered by Xignite.

All investments involve the risk of loss and the past performance of a security or a financial product does not guarantee future results or returns. You should consult your legal, tax, or financial advisors before making any financial decisions. This material is not intended as a recommendation, offer, or solicitation to purchase or sell securities, open a brokerage account, or engage in any investment strategy.

Stocks, ETFs, Options, Bonds.
Self-directed brokerage accounts and brokerage services for US-listed, registered securities, options, and Bonds, except for treasury securities offered through Jiko Securities, Inc., are offered to self-directed customers by Open to the Public Investing, Inc. (“Public Investing”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. Additional information about your broker can be found by clicking here. Public Investing is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Public Holdings, Inc. (“Public Holdings”). This is not an offer, solicitation of an offer, or advice to buy or sell securities or open a brokerage account in any jurisdiction where Public Investing is not registered. Securities products offered by Public Investing are not FDIC insured. Apex Clearing Corporation, our clearing firm, has additional insurance coverage in excess of the regular SIPC limits. Additional information can be found here.

Options.
Certain requirements must be met in order to trade options. Options can be risky and are not suitable for all investors. Options transactions are often complex, and investors can rapidly lose the entire amount of their investment or more in a short period of time. Investors should consider their investment objectives and risks carefully before investing in options. Refer to the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options before considering any options transaction. Supporting documentation for any claims, if applicable, will be furnished upon request. Tax considerations with options transactions are unique and investors considering options should consult their tax advisor as to how taxes affect the outcome of each options strategy.

Options Order Flow Rebates.
If you are enrolled in our Options Order Flow Rebate Program, Public Investing will share a percentage of our estimated order flow revenue for each completed options trade as a rebate to help reduce your trading costs. Rebate rates vary monthly from $0.06-$0.18 and depend on your current and prior month’s options trading volume. This rebate will be deducted from your cost to place the trade and will be reflected on your trade confirmation. To learn more, see our Options Rebate Program Terms & Conditions, Order Rebate FAQ and Fee Schedule.

Bonds.
“Bonds” shall refer to corporate debt securities and U.S. government securities offered on the Public platform through a self-directed brokerage account held at Public Investing and custodied at Apex Clearing. For purposes of this section, Bonds exclude treasury securities held in treasury accounts with Jiko Securities, Inc. as explained under the “ Treasury Accounts” section.

Investments in Bonds are subject to various risks including risks related to interest rates, credit quality, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early redemption, corporate events, tax ramifications and other factors. The value of Bonds fluctuate and any investments sold prior to maturity may result in gain or loss of principal. In general, when interest rates go up, Bond prices typically drop, and vice versa. Bonds with higher yields or offered by issuers with lower credit ratings generally carry a higher degree of risk. All fixed income securities are subject to price change and availability, and yield is subject to change. Bond ratings, if provided, are third party opinions on the overall bond's credit worthiness at the time the rating is assigned. Ratings are not recommendations to purchase, hold, or sell securities, and they do not address the market value of securities or their suitability for investment purposes.

A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The Bond Account’s yield is the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees. A bond’s yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore a bond’s YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule.

Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. You should evaluate each bond before investing in a Bond Account. The bonds in your Bond Account will not be rebalanced and allocations will not be updated, except for Corporate Actions.

Fractional Bonds also carry additional risks including that they are only available on Public and cannot be transferred to other brokerages. Read more about the risks associated with fixed income and fractional bonds. See Bond Account Disclosures to learn more.

High-Yield Cash Account.
A High-Yield Cash Account is a secondary brokerage account with Public Investing. Funds in your High-Yield Cash Account are automatically deposited into partner banks (“Partner Banks”), where that cash earns interest and is eligible for FDIC insurance. See here for a list of current Partner Banks. Your Annual Percentage Yield is variable and may change at the discretion of the Partner Banks or Public Investing. Apex Clearing and Public Investing receive administrative fees for operating this program, which reduce the amount of interest paid on swept cash. Neither Public Investing nor any of its affiliates is a bank. Learn more.

Cryptocurrency.
Cryptocurrency trading, execution, and custody services are provided by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1828849) (“Bakkt”). Cryptocurrency is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of the entire amount of an investment. Cryptocurrencies offered by Bakkt are not securities and are not FDIC insured or protected by SIPC. Your cryptocurrency assets are held in your Bakkt account. Bakkt is a licensed virtual currency business by the New York State Department of Financial Services and a licensed money transmitter, but is not a registered broker-dealer or a FINRA member. Your Bakkt Crypto account is separate from your brokerage account with Public Investing, which holds US-listed stocks and ETFs. Please review the Risk Disclosures before trading.

Treasury Accounts.
Investing services in treasury accounts offering 6 month US Treasury Bills on the Public platform are through Jiko Securities, Inc. (“JSI”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. See JSI’s FINRA BrokerCheck and Form CRS for further information. JSI uses funds from your Treasury Account to purchase T-bills in increments of $100 “par value” (the T-bill’s value at maturity). T-bills are purchased at a discount to the par value and the T-bill’s yield represents the difference in price between the “par value” and the “discount price.” Aggregate funds in your Treasury Account in excess of the T-bill purchases will remain in your Treasury Account as cash. The value of T-bills fluctuate and investors may receive more or less than their original investments if sold prior to maturity. T-bills are subject to price change and availability - yield is subject to change. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Investments in T-bills involve a variety of risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk. As a general rule, the price of a T-bills moves inversely to changes in interest rates. Although T-bills are considered safer than many other financial instruments, you could lose all or a part of your investment. See Jiko U.S. Treasuries Risk Disclosures for further details.

Investments in T-bills: Not FDIC Insured; No Bank Guarantee; May Lose Value.

Banking services and bank accounts are offered by Jiko Bank, a division of Mid-Central National Bank. JSI and Jiko Bank are not affiliated with Public Holdings, Inc. (“Public”) or any of its subsidiaries. None of these entities provide legal, tax, or accounting advice. You should consult your legal, tax, or financial advisors before making any financial decisions. This material is not intended as a recommendation, offer, or solicitation to purchase or sell securities, open a brokerage account, or engage in any investment strategy.

Commission-free trading refers to $0 commissions charged on trades of US listed registered securities placed during the US Markets Regular Trading Hours in self-directed brokerage accounts offered by Public Investing. Keep in mind that other fees such as regulatory fees, Premium subscription fees, commissions on trades during extended trading hours, wire transfer fees, and paper statement fees may apply to your brokerage account.
