With Bitcoin struggling to break the $9,500 resistance, as an investor you are better off looking at other alternatives that have the potential to reward well. However, investing in cryptocurrencies is no joke and requires one to do their own research before committing money to any coin. Without much ado let us have a look at 2 altcoins that can reap better returns than Bitcoin.
Stellar
The altcoin has become a force to reckon with among cryptocurrencies. Its blockchain can process fast transactions. They usually take between two to five seconds to process and this has made it very popular with crypto users.
XLM gained 5.6% in the past week and has seen 117% gain in the last one month. Believers of the altcoin see it crossing the $1 mark in 2018. Fuelling that gain will be the growing interest in the altcoin which has seen it land some major partnership with the likes of IBM and ICICI Bank of India. If this comes to fruition, then expect investors to make handsome returns.
Cardano
Ada is an improvement of the Ethereum platform or at least that is what they are trying to achieve. It’s a third generation dApp blockchain solution that makes it possible to program smart contracts and blockchains.
The altcoin is set to see major implementations this year and when this happens expect its price to shoot for the skies. It has been predicted to hit the $8 mark by the end of the year which would represent a nice return given that it’s currently trading at $0.36.
The altcoin has experienced a 20.4% gain in the past week and a 141% gain in the last month. In 2017 ADA experienced a 2835% gain and if this figure is to be repeated again this year then expect its investors to make handsome returns on their investment.
