Top Cryptocurrencies To HODL

 Currently, there are more than three thousand digital currencies. If there is anyone, a big factor that triggered this massive growth is none other than the first cryptocurrency Bitcoin. This is the first milestone in the history of the financial world to be founded by an anonymous person called Satoshi Nakamoto. 


More Choices


No matter Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency known to many, but now it is not the only digital money option available for investors. 


And it is all because of the rise of alternate currencies which are popularly called ‘altcoins’. Even though they are large in numbers still, not all have succeeded in coming at par with Bitcoin.


In short, they are not much popular in comparison to other alternate currencies. 


HODL


If you are a crypto enthusiast, then you must have come across many terminologies. Among these is HODL. 


Now, what is HODL in crypto? This is the question any new budding crypto aspirant would like to know.


Well, this is the wrong spelled version of the word Hold. The term HODL came from when a drunken trader called GameKyuubi wrongly spelled it as saying I AM HODLing on the Bitcoin forum long ago. 


Little did he think that the term spoken in a drunken state would later become a popular terminology in the crypto world. 


Some of the top cryptocurrencies to HODL are Bitcoin and altcoins like Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, Monero, Dash, and Litecoin.
