The Best Cryptocurrencies to Buy & Hold in June 2021
2021-06-13
Note: This is not trading advice, these are my own opinions. Investing in the cryptocurrency market comes with inherent risk. Always do your own due diligence.
I apologize that this article is a week late! May was a wild month in the world of crypto, to say the least. Bitcoin got crushed after Elon Musk made comments that he does not think it's good for the environment. He also claims to have sold some of Tesla's BTC holdings. This along with the public perception of the environmental harm caused by Bitcoin mining led to a massive decline in price. Having said that, Bitcoin is a very appealing BUY at the moment.
Here are the best cryptocurrencies to invest in during June 2021.
Again, these are just speculative plays. Investing in cryptocurrencies can result in losses. Only invest what you can afford to lose.
BITCOIN (current price at time of post: $36,667)
Bitcion is always #1 on the list. The world's first digitally engineered safe-haven and the world’s first mainstream cryptocurrency, Bitcoin is stored and exchanged securely on the internet through a digital ledger known as a blockchain. Bitcoins are divisible into smaller units known as satoshis — each satoshi is worth 0.00000001 bitcoin. (from Coinbase.com) JP Morgan believes each Bitcoin will be worth $650,000 by 2031.

POLYGON (current price at time of post: $1.30)
Polygon goes by the ticker MATIC and is readily avilable on many exchanges. In fact, this token has succeeded over the last few weeks when just about every other cryptocurrency has fallen heavily. Buy it at Coinbase.com. Learn more here.
AMP (current price at time of post: $0.07)
Similar to Polgyon, Amp has recovered nicely from the crazy price activity of the market in May. Buy it at Coinbase.com. Learn more here.
ALGORAND (current price at time of post: $1.03)
Algorand is a cryptocurrency and blockchain protocol that aims to be simultaneously scalable, secure, and decentralized. It uses a consensus algorithm called pure proof-of-stake. (from Coinbase.com) Oh, and you can earn 6% interest if you hold it on Coinbase. Learn more here.
Where can I buy crypto?
There are hundreds of platforms called "exchanges". An exchange is a place for investors to buy, sell, and hold their crypto. Here are a few that I recommend, complete with signup links and ways to earn free crypto:
Coinbase: Pros: The most secure platform in the world. Easy to use and great technology. Cons: High transaction fees. Small selection of crypto to purchase. Cons: Not many!
Kraken: Pros: Great security and staking opportunities. Great technology, great platform. Cons: Limited selection of cryptocurrencies.
Bittrex: Pros: The largest selection of crypto in the world. Cons: Has been hacked before.

Ok, you've bought your crypto, now what?
You have a few options here:
Keep your crypto on the exchange where you bought it. Many exchanges nowadays are very secure and financially stable and it's fine if you leave your investment there. Do your due-diligence and ensure that your decision is best.
Move your crypto to safe, cold storage wallet. What is this? Cold storage wallets are essentially USB sticks where you can keep your crypto. This is the most secure method of holding your crypto. Here are the two best wallets you can buy:
The Ledger Nano X is an improvement over the first generation Nano S. It supports over 1,500 cryptocurrencies giving you the ability to store just about anything. Important: In December of 2020 Ledger suffered a data hack which exposed names, phone numbers, and home addresses of many customers. This did not result in the loss of any holdings or the exposure of private keys, but it did lead to phishing attempts.Pros:
Ledger Live has a fantastic user interface
Connects to various wallets and exchanges
Stores up to 100 different apps
Very good support
Bluetooth connectivity
Cons:
Bluetooth has flaws
Data hack in 2020 exposed email and home addresses of ledger users resulting in phishing attempts. NEVER give anyone your private keys. Only input them into the actually Ledger Nano X device.
The Trezor Model T is also the second generation of Trezor cold wallet storage. It's website interface gives users access to exchanges such as Changelly, a great way to swap tokens for a small fee. The Model T supports more than 1,600 cryptocurrencies. It also has a MicroSD card slot which lets you encrypt the PIN for further security.Pros:
The Ledger Nano S is Ledger's first generation hardware wallet. It is very introductory and is still relevant for those who are new to crypto. It's biggest weakness is the lack of storage.Pros:
Move your crypto to an interest-earning account! This is new and exciting. While your USD banks are paying out 0.5% interest on the money in your savings accounts (at best), you can earn up to 10% interest on your crypto. I recommend the platforms below, each of which has $100m in custody insurance:
I trade daily and on a weekly basis I make up to 0.5 btc. In a month is 2 btc, which you will not get in a while holding. Many traders ask how I make such amounts of Bitcoin in just a week, the secret is just to search for a good and trustworthy expert to help you out and provide good signals for you to trade with. I have been doing that with the services of MR ROBERT PATRICK . He is the best when it comes to trading and giving out accurate signals. Am putting this out to those who has been looking for a solution to make profits. Pls don't miss this opportunity.
