Top-5 Crypto Tokens Pronounced 'Dead'

Bitcoin still dominates the portfolios of most crypto investors and is by far the most popular cryptocurrency, meaning its price is less prone to drops than the rest of the market.

I believe that LTC and ETH have a good chance to retain value because of their already mass acceptance. On the other hand, I believe that niche coins and coins largely controlled face an uphill journey."
