BTC

This is a very old coin, which began its journey back in 2014. When Bitcoin was worth $500, Stellar could be bought for $0.0025. Today, Bitcoin is worth $66,000, and XLM is worth $0.1. It can be calculated that during this particular time period, Bitcoin rose in price by 132 times, and XLM rose in price by 40 times. But it was not always so.
The first bullish season, XLM was on top. It managed to rise in price from $0.01 to $0.87, thereby recording its personal record. In January 2018, XLM grew 80 times. Bitcoin was able to rise in price by 20 times, from $500 to $20,000.
So at some points, you could earn much more on XLM. True, you can lose much more, because during the market correction, the XLM coin becomes much cheaper than Bitcoin.
During the second bull season, the XLM coin rose from $0.08 to $0.7. Bitcoin rose in price during that period from $9,000 to $67,000. As we can see, here again the XLM coin brought its investors much more profit. It rose in price almost 20 times, while Bitcoin was able to grow only 7 times.
The third bull season is not over yet. But let's try to make an analysis based on the data that we already have. The first wave of the third bull season is already behind us. Bitcoin set its maximum at $73,000, and the Stellar coin rose in price from $0.1 to $0.14. After which Stellar began to fall altogether. Today, XLM is trading at $0.99. This is a terrible result.
I predict that when Bitcoin rises to $100,000, the Stellar coin can only double. This is the maximum it can do. And in the worst case, it can even become cheaper.
Conclusion
I would not buy the Stellar coin for long-term storage.
It should be understood that Bitcoin is much more reliable than any other cryptocurrency.
After all, different cryptocurrencies appear and after some time either depreciate or disappear completely, but Bitcoin always survives.
