The upcoming "market darlings" to look out for. Where the bulk of the bull market's money will go to.

We've seen this happen in past bull runs.

The "Market darlings" are those handful of alt-coins that the market has a major boner for.

It's not always just based on fundamentals, but also the coins that are the hottest and most talked about, and where the focus of the money goes into during the peak of a bull run.

In 2014 we had these darlings aside from Bitcoin:

XRP, Litecoin, and Peercoin.

In 2017 it was:

Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and XRP.

They were the bull market's favorites and where most of the money went into. Not always for the best reasons.

The same thing will probably happen in this bull run.

This is not a long term phenomenon. Long term, you'd still want to look at what coins have the fundamentals to survive a bear winter.

But short term, you may also want to look at where the bulk of the money will turn to in the hottest phase of the bull run.

Currently, I think these are the best candidates to become the "darlings" that the market will pick for the final big phase of the bull run:

1-Ethereum

2-ADA

3-SOL

4-DOT

5-BNB (this one I'm the least sure about)

6-XRP (yes the market could go back to loving XRP again)

Potential surprise disruptors: ATOM, AAVE, VET, AVAX, SNX, IOTA, ALGO, ONE.

Keep in mind, this is not completely rational. And I'm going by what I believe ticks the most boxes to give the market the bigger boner.

It's based on also hype, and what the market will talk about the most. So as great as the tech is for say Cosmos, Harmony, VET, etc...it's not the only factor that makes an alt-coin a "darling" for the bull market. Those coins might do really well, but may not become the top picks.

​

But honestly, apart from Ethereum, and maybe ADA, the rest is hard to predict.

What will the market have a boner for and put the bulk of the money into? Your guess is as good as mine.
