The bull market has arrived for bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies. Along with this price boost, many influencers, disseminators, analysts, ‘twitterers’, etc., begin to make predictions about what prices some digital assets could reach.

As NoticiasVE explained in a recent article, many of these predictions don’t make sense and they do not take into account at all the gigantic market capitalization that the assets would have if they reached the predicted prices.

Dominican analyst Érika Espinal spoke about this topic on her YouTube channel. Says the founder of Invest-E-Capital that “many people make exaggerated predictions without adequate fundamental or technical analysis, which leads to unrealistic expectations.”

As an example, Espinal mentions that “there are those who say that XRP can reach 10 or 12 dollars, or that Solana will reach 2,000 dollars in this bullish cycle.” The communicator warns that “these figures are very unlikely,” so she recommends being “careful with such high expectations to avoid frustration.”

«It doesn’t matter how many gurus or influencers tell you that you can easily make 1 million dollars or 5 million in the cryptocurrency market. Let’s face reality. The truth is that it is going to be a little more difficult, it will not be an easy road.

The investor does not rule out the fact that large profits can be generated with cryptocurrencies in the remainder of this bullish cycle, but emphasizes the need to have realistic expectations. He explains his particular case: “I adjusted my expectations after realizing that the risk to achieve a 50x return was too high for my investment profile. “I decided to focus on coins that could give me a more manageable return, like 10x or 15x, with less risk.”

Also, Espinal mentions the need forand manage the portfolio well in case you decide to invest in altcoins (cryptocurrencies that are not bitcoin). Overdiversification, he says, can be harmful.

«I have seen people who have 20, 30 or even 50 cryptocurrencies, but this is not diversification, but madness. If you are not 100% dedicated to the cryptocurrency market, it will be difficult to properly track so many coins. My recommendation is to condense your portfolio and focus on specific trends or narratives. For example, choose coins that give you exposure to several important narratives. This will allow you to have a more manageable portfolio with greater potential.

Some of the cryptocurrencies Espinal says he has invested in are Pyth Network (PYTH), Feth.ai (FET), Celestia (TIA), Ondo Finance (ONDO), Render (RNDR), Sui (SUI) and Pendle (PENDLE) . He also claims to have exposure to some memecoins such as GOAT, PEPE and WIF.

It is worth clarifying that several of these cryptocurrencies and tokens have already had a significant rise in this bullish cycle (which reduces their current growth potential) and that Espinal does not mention them as a purchase signal or investment advice.
