The much-publicised November 2020 rocketing of Bitcoin (and other) cryptocurrencies means my $200 is now worth $325; that’s a +62.5% profit in three months.

That’s a phenomenal return in By anyone’s book, it’s a phenomenal return. What I’ve done now is fallen into the classic trader’s trap – taking $80 of my ‘profit’ and reinvesting it in more cryptocurrency. This time I’ve gone for fledging currencies that may, or most likely may not, make it. I chose them all after reading upon them, and my money bought me:

• 300 Cardano (ADA) – Good tech, enthusiastic crowd.
• 500 Tron (TRX) – Personal interest in entertainment (not very investor savvy move by me though!).
• 54,713 BitTorrent (BTT) – Insanely cheap. Those coins cost me $20. It feels like a fun gamble.

The good news is I’m already +10% up on these as they ride the Bitcoin wave.
