Most profitable virtual currencies to invest money

The cryptocurrencies are at their best: many of them are multiplying their value and interest in them grows exponentially. Let's say it's the best time to invest in virtual currencies.

To make this list we will be based on the purchase of virtual currencies valued at 1000 dollars during some period of this same year. In bold we show how much we would have won.

Bitcoin

It is the criptomoneda by antonomasia. It is not the one that is having more profitability right now, but it has greatly increased its value. As I write these lines it is priced at almost $ 2400, but its historical maximum is 2993.46 euros. The daily capitalization amounts to more than 1 billion dollars.

Bitcoin doubles its value in 5 months

According to some experts, within a decade a single Bitcoin could be worth $ 50,000 (yes, the paper will hold all the ink you throw). However, the future of Bitcoin comes from a thread called 'August 1', day where the currency could be devalued to a minimum due to the dreaded hard fork.

Why August will be the moment of truth for Bitcoin, and why virtual currencies are falling
If we had invested 1000 dollars on January 1, 2017 (worth 1.0278 BTC), at the peak of this currency we would have converted that money to 3076.68 dollars. However, it is estimated that in the long run it will continue to rise, and if it does not reach $ 50,000 in 10 years (which is crazy), it could perfectly well double its current value before the end of the year .

AntShares

This currency is relatively new (2016). However, it has had a very good reception by the community. It currently has a capitalization of more than $ 26,000 (very little) per day, but the returns it has been handling have been very good.

AntShares, an alternative criptomoneda to Bitcoin

Specifically it went from being worth 0.1177 in March 2017 to 11.79 dollars in June of the same year. In calculating, if we had bought 8643 coins for $ 1000 at the time, the value on June 20 would have risen to $ 101,901.46. It is currently worth $ 6.18, so it stands at $ 53,414.

Ripple

Ripple (2012) is known as the currency of banks. Many banks around the world agree to market with it and the figure goes up every day. Its value is not very large, but it does have a fairly broad daily capitalization; has a current value of 0.2 dollars (0.174 euros) and is handled daily more than 250,000 dollars.


In May of this same year it had a value of $ 0.006. So, who invested 1000 dollars (to buy 16 6666.66 coins) could have made 69 633.33 dollars, that same month reached a maximum of $ 0.4178. Right now, it seems that the value is being corrected after the decline and is starting to rise from $ 0.2 back to $ 0.4.

Ethereum

We have already talked about it: it has gone from being worth $ 8.06 to 412.93 of maximum. A hypothetical purchase of 124 coins on January 1, 2017 would amount to $ 51,232. They would now be 26 791.56 dollars (currently has a value of 215.94 euros).



Actualemnte has a capitalization of more than 1000 million dollars, something more even than Bitcoin himself. It is a strong alternative to the gold coin and, for those who want something mature (with a large market), this criptomoneda can be a very good option.


Litecoin

If Bitcoin is the gold coin, the Litecoin is the silver coin (literally so is its logo). Apart from its advantages over the BTC, it is also having a pretty good return. It manages daily a volume of more than 300 000 dollars. There are times that it has surpassed more than 1000 million dollars, passing also to the BTC and any other currency.

Litecoin, a virtual currency

With a value of 3.8 dollars in March 2017, if we had bought 263 LTC worth 1000 euros, at its best we would have taken a slice of 14 107.89 dollars, when it was bought / sold at 53.61 dollars. Right now, those 1000 dollars would have been converted to 12,239.47 dollars, since each LTC is currently worth 46.51 dollars.

The one that has had more during this year, as we see, is without any doubt AntShares. We could have converted $ 1000 into $ 101,901.46 if we had invested it at the right time.
