Scenario check: if you're committing to a single altcoin position for the entire year with no trading, which one makes your conviction list?

Think about it this way—you're locking in capital for 12 months. That means you're banking on either breakthrough adoption, ecosystem expansion, or major catalysts within that timeframe. Some traders go for moonshot potential. Others stick with established layer-2 solutions or DeFi protocols with real traction. The risk tolerance matters. The narrative matters. The tokenomics and development roadmap matter even more.

So here's the real question: are you chasing explosive growth or betting on sustainable fundamentals?

There isn't a single one in the entire crypto space that I dare to bet on for a whole year... To be honest.

Oh man, I just want to ask, can you really endure not moving for 12 months? I definitely can't do it anyway.

Not moving for a year? Come on, I can't stop my fingers from moving.

Haha, haven't touched it for a whole year? To be honest, that's a bit cowardly.

Basically, you're gambling on human nature. Whether it's a moonshot or a steady approach depends entirely on individual greed levels.

On-chain data shows that most people can't hold for 12 months. My observation is that those who truly dare to all-in on a coin are the ones who are thoroughly familiar with the contract code. From a tokenomics perspective, most altcoins have issues with their distribution mechanisms. It is worth noting that many project teams secretly change parameters when deploying late at night.
