How did the Top 50 cryptocurrencies perform in February?
February was definitely not a good month for most altcoins. There are a few exceptions such as Litecoin, OmiseGO and Ethereum Classic, but most altcoins lost a lot of their value last month.
Bitcoin started February with a market dominance of 33.5% and strengthened its position as king of the cryptocurrencies by rising to a dominance of 40%.
Steem was an absolute outperformer in January (up 62%), but unfortunately lost almost 38% of its value last month.

I've personally been impressed with how well NEO has held up in February. It seems to me that NEO is proving the dual-token model to be very stable and sustainable.
Both BTC and steem are a long hold .. I think the next double , if not triple boom will be around June 2018
@josteem
I would say the same thing for ethereum
Definitely ... though no one knows about the new rivals to etherium would do I.e EOS , Ada, etc. even Coming SMT
From your mouth to goods ears! XD
Thanks for being on the right side of the prophecy 😉
WOW!
DigixDAO managed to spike as much as +131.8% at the end of February.
It's amazing,if you thought that mostly any coin has a btc trading pair
DigixDAO destroying everything
What do you expect to happen this month? Not taking it as financial advice but it would be fun to see if things match up at the end of the month.
Would it be logical to say that investing in the ones that lost most in Febr will be most likely profitable in March?
It's hard to predict short term, but based on technical analysis I think we can expect $12.000 very soon if Bitcoin can break the dark blue line in this daily chart. We are very close to a breakout.

Thanks for the reply. I am expecting BTC to go below $10,000 for a little while before it reaches $ 12,000. For all the people who just started their first cryptocurrency experience I hope I am wrong :)
Ugh. Hate it when I am right :)
