All the masternode coins were hit pretty hard with what I call the masternode dump. It's not just CHC and SYNX that shared this characteristic that day.

Unfortunately, the information on Synx in this article is incorrect. Most of the admins ended up getting burnt by the dump. Additionally, the community is actually holding it's own and as a coin, Synx is worthwhile getting into for which a comment won't do it justice.

The community was actually responsible with getting responses from the developers who are making changes (Look for anticlimax's post in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1511215.2760) because of hodling together.

So look, you can have your own opinion on many of the other coins, but please don't cast an eye of judgement on SYNX unless you've been part of the slack for at least one day. If you're interested, you can read my writeup about day one as well (https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@the-superstar/day-1-my-story-as-an-admin-on-synx-hodl-slack).

Additionally, there are many types of investing in cryptoland. Charts is just one form of investing and it's not necessarily the best. There are many other types of investing and each type has advantages and disadvantages. If hodl doesn't suit you, then so be it, but it might suit others.
