<p>I would like to buy 10 crypto currencies ($100~$150) each and leave it for a long period.
What are the pros/cons of such approach?
Some things I can think of</p>

<ul>
<li>Coins disappear with time and some might be erased over time...?</li>
<li>Holding them?</li>
<li>Creating a paper wallet for each (I do not want it to be in an exchange, I do not trust them)?</li>
<li>Transaction fees might be too high?</li>
</ul>

<p>I don't know what I don't know, so I am not sure what to be careful of, so I am asking from your experience.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

I believe if you buy those coins under a BTC base and when they are very low price would be better.
