Hello people, as the title suggests I’m wondering if yall think XMR is a good long term holding strategy in comparison to other coins like BTC, ETH, SOL, or cardio.

Robinhood account: $10,603.66, up $266.94 (up 2.58%) over the past week.
Day 3 went viral on this subreddit so I hope you all believe this is real at this point. A bunch of you have even joined the journey trading along me 🤑
Across the whole book since day 1, including the crypto and Kalshi sleeves that live outside Robinhood: up $433.23 (up 4.14%).
27 agents live. 20 finished the week green, 6 red, 1 has not traded yet. No manual trades, every fill below was the agents.
The trades worth talking about:
FAANG+ Momentum caught a one day META pop. Monday it bought 2.47 shares of META at $708.49. Tuesday the daily rerank sold 2.34 of them at $747.20. That is +5.5% overnight, about $90, on one rotation. It kept rotating all week, including a one day NFLX hold that went in at $71.49 and out at $71.57, basically a coin flip. Week: up $105.35 (up 4.39%).
Business As Usual was the biggest dollar gainer. It holds the S&P 500 and only switches into UPRO, a 3x leveraged S&P fund, on days New York weather reads normal for the season on Kalshi's temperature markets. Monday was one of those days. It bought UPRO at $150.61, sold Tuesday at $154.68, +2.7% on the levered leg in one session, about $69. It went back into UPRO Friday. Week: up $152.07 (up 6.16%). Yes, a weather signal was my best agent this week, and I'm aware how that sounds.
Crypto Trend Following bought SOL at $101.54 on the night of day 1 and sold it the next night at $112.60. That's +10.9% in 24 hours. It rotated into BTC and ETH once both crossed back above their 30 day averages. Week: up 14.0%.
AI Picks & Shovels bought SMCI at $39.18 on day 1 and trimmed it Friday at $42.78, +9.2%. The same Friday reweight opened a new Micron position at $1,090. Week: up $61.80 (up 6.13%).
The Silicon Overdrive, a small 2x leveraged semiconductor sleeve, had the best percent week in the book: up 19.45%. It's only a $100 position, which is exactly why it's allowed to be this volatile.
The Critic trades Kalshi markets on whether a movie's Rotten Tomatoes score clears a threshold. It bought a "clears 85%" contract at 49 cents, the score cleared, and it paid out $1.00. It roughly doubled, on tiny money.
The losers, because there always are some:
Crypto Rotator, down $13.31 (down 5.48%). It holds one coin at a time. It rode BTC from $75,709 to $81,180, +7.2%, then gave all of it back rotating through BCH, AVAX and now DOGE. One coin at a time means both directions show up loud.
High Profile Congress, down $9.21 (down 1.88%), the only real equity loser. Best detail of the week: it sold FSLR at $199.21 on day 2, then bought it back six days later at $187.91 when a new disclosure came in.
NFL Fantasy Agent, down $6.17 (down 32%), on a roughly $19 position. My fantasy team is 0-2 so this makes sense.
The Superfan trades Big Brother winner contracts on Kalshi. It was still up 7% on the week because the one it has left kept rising.
Scoreboard since day 1:
\- Business As Usual: +$152.07 (+6.16%)
\- FAANG+ Momentum: +$105.35 (+4.39%)
\- AI Picks & Shovels: +$61.80 (+6.13%)
\- First of the Month: +$29.86 (+3.00%)
\- Pelosi Tracker: +$25.25 (+5.01%)
\- FDA Inspector: +$22.73 (+4.60%)
\- The Silicon Overdrive: +$16.82 (+19.45%)
\- Founder Mode: +$14.41 (+5.87%)
\- Hot Hand: +$10.21 (+5.18%)
\- Crypto Trend Following: +$7.54 (+14.03%)
\- High Profile Congress: -$9.21 (-1.88%)
\- NFL Fantasy Agent: -$6.17 (-32.3%)
\- Crypto Rotator: -$13.31 (-5.48%)
\- Everything else: within a few dollars either way

SOL was much lower through most 2022 than it been this year ??

Yeah, don't do anything with futures or leverage now. Safest is to put all in BTC, or you can spread it out into BTC, ETH, and SOL and get a little higher ROI. And then just hold for years. And while you're account is slowly growing, you can educate yourself about futures and options. But stay away from them until you are not a beginner anymore.

Honestly, only people that are experts in the market with years and years of experience should do futures or options. If you trade 24/7 then maybe after a few years of experience.

Since December 2020 Nvidia made 1600% ... I bought BNB at 30 Euro and sold at 1100 Euro, that is 3 667 %. I bought SOL at 12, sold at 192 , = 1600%. So I had a few ones that could hold up with Nvidia ...

the fee link is what makes RAY interesting. I’d watch sustainable volume and actual buyback activity rather than just SOL hype.

Stocks have relatively consistent returns, backed by real companies. Easier for investors to hang on. BTC has wild price fluctuations.
I own BTC, ETH, SOL, but how many shitcoins have gone bust? To a new investor, BTC may be difficult to understand.

I was in long before deranged orange man got in ... did not liked it at all ... and I am European and I DID NOT VOTE for this a - hole.
n.b. my total return in the crypto space (BTC, ETH, SOL; ZCASH ... since 2020 beats by far the S and P. It is 300%.

yours is the version of mine done properly. preregistered, three years, both halves, frozen before any run. mine was six weeks until someone else in this thread pushed on the sample and it became a year, and the year moved things a lot.
the ratio doesn't map straight over though. there's no stop in my rule, entry is a close above the average and exit is a close back below it, so there's no R to divide by. cost is 0.30% round trip, 0.05% spread and 0.10% fee each side.
nearest honest denominator I've got is the move the trade actually captures, so median absolute move over the real holding period, per coin. that I can run, the year of bars is already cached.
and I've never looked at any of this per coin. the whole thing is blended, which now looks like the obvious hole in it.
so, stated before I run it, since that's your method not mine. if you're right the order comes out TRX and BTC worst and DOGE, SOL and AVAX least damaged, which is backwards from how most people would guess it. the thing that could muddy it is that the fast coins cross the average more often, so they pay more fees per week even with a better ratio per trade. I'll post it whichever way it lands.

This is almost exactly what I do in Meteora in solana and it has tools to explicitly do this, but with SOL pairs.
There, you can use a specific curve shape to shift most of the liquidity towards the back of the range so it takes a considerable movement before IL ramps up.
Even on SOL-USDC, you easily get 0.5% - 1% fees per day which stacks up quite well.
Calling it impermanent loss is also a little deceptive I think. If you've ever sold options, it's really just delta increasing as the position moves against you, which is why IL is low in the middle and the top but costs a lot at the bottom of the range.

Been looking at PUMP from the same angle.
Pump.fun has the daily burn history sitting on the PUMP page with tokens burned and SOL spent for each date. Much easier to follow than piecing together a buyback program from random announcements.

This time round, just SOL and BTC. Got fed up of all the sh*tcoins dragging my portfolio down.

Simple way to think about it: divide your LTV by the market's liquidation threshold. At 50% LTV with an 80% threshold, you get liquidated if SOL drops about 37%. SOL has done that in a week before, so 50% isn't that safe.
If you want to survive a 60% crash, keep your LTV around 30%. For a $5K loan, that's roughly $16K of SOL as collateral.
Also, the 20% tax only applies to your profit, so selling $5K might cost you a lot less than $1K. Worth running both numbers.

its HBAR, NEXO and SOL for me, its been like that for a while

Been building this out for a while, mostly by describing what I want in plain English to an AI coding agent (OpenCode) and having it do the actual data work.
No manual SQL, no writing pipelines by hand, just prompting.
Some of the more interesting stuff that came out of that process.
Had it audit its own data for problems and it found real bugs, like a split adjuster that couldn't tell a real stock split from a merger since the price jump looks the same either way.
Turned out I had exactly that bug, spinoffs mislabeled as splits.
Fixed by just describing the problem and letting it find and correct the bad rows. Also had it check for survivorship biass turns out my equity universe only has currently listed tickers, no delisted names. Real gap, now documented instead of hidden.

Did a demo of the actual workflow. Asked it to pull EUR/USD, S&P 500 and a China equity proxy, align them on the same calendar, and chart 90 day rolling correlation across all three
. Took about 5 minutes end to end, zero API calls. Doing that the traditional way, three separate paid APIs, different rate limits, mismatched exchange calendars, would realistically be a full day if you already have access set up, or weeks from scratch.
Not claiming the chart itself is some discovery, it's a starting point for a question not an answer. What actually changed is how fast I can go from idea to test. That's the part that feels different working this way compared to writing everything by hand.
Next thing I want to test through the same setup: does COT positioning at a statistical extreme predict a shift in realized vol 5-20 days out. Not direction, that overfits instantly. Vol's the more honest target.
Curious how many people here are using AI agents to actually build and maintain their own data infrastructure versus just using them to write strategy code.

If you care about the fees, you should try our Solana wallet, Aurus. Flat 0.001 SOL instead of 0.5-1% on other apps. We aggregate from every major provider/venue available on Solana to get you the best price. Last week I actually got positive slippage if you can believe that lol. Top notch execution and flat fee 🫡

FLATLINE launched today on pump.fun. It's built around a simple idea: a token whose market is also an artwork, and whose artwork is alive only as long as the market is.
The painting
Every trade of at least 0.05 SOL is a heartbeat. Each heartbeat is painted live, in ink, on an endless scroll in the style of Chinese shan shui landscapes. Buys rise as mountains, with their height following the size of the trade. Sells fall below the horizon as reflections in water. Silence between heartbeats turns into mist. Each day of life is stamped with a red seal carrying its number.
The rule that makes it different
If 24 hours pass without a single heartbeat, the line goes flat and the painting dies. Death is permanent: the scroll is sealed and nothing after it is painted, even if trading continues. The epitaph is the last heartbeat: its wallet, its direction, its size, its time.
Patrons and the heir
Each day's painting goes to its patron: whoever came early, gave the day the most, and stayed. Same-day flips don't count, and the patron has to keep holding. At death, the complete sealed scroll goes to its heir: the patron of the last day the heart beat.
Fair by design
One wallet can make the heart beat at most once every 10 minutes, so spam can't fake a pulse. The rules were fixed on day one and the painting is deterministic: the same trades always produce the same scroll, stroke for stroke.

Small alts have been out performing BTC. Usually they are after BTC/ETH/SOL.
They still seem connected as a market but not lead by BTC anymore.

Devi fidarti solo di BTC, ETH, SOL e basta
