Introduction:
Crypto investing comes in two main flavors: long-term and short-term. Which one suits you best? Let’s compare them.
Strategy | Description | Best For |
---|---|---|
Long-Term (HODL) | Buy and hold for months or years | Busy professionals, low risk tolerance |
Short-Term | Trade based on daily/weekly trends | Active users, higher risk tolerance |
✅ Long-Term Pros:
- Less stressful
- Lower trading fees
- Takes advantage of macro growth
⚡ Short-Term Pros:
- Higher profit potential
- Exploit market volatility
- More engagement with news and trends
🧠 Hybrid Strategy:
You can mix both! For example:
- 80% long-term in BTC/ETH
- 20% for short-term trades in trending altcoins
📌 Your strategy should match your lifestyle and risk appetite.
