I first heard about Mintos.com peer to peer lending marketplace back in 2016, starting with 2017 I decided to invest some chunk of money on this platform.
Now in 2018, Mintos.com is the top performing passive income revenue stream for me.
I keep investing also in stocks, mutual funds, and cryptocurrencies.
At the end of Q1 2018, mintos.com took the second largest position (after stocks) in my portfolio with 28.6% of my funds invested in Mintos.com marketplace.
Investment portfolio structure at the end of Q1 2018
The overall impact on the total portfolio for Mintos has decreased from all time height at 100% in January 2017 to little less than 30% at the end of Q1 2018. And I'm glad. The reason is simple:
- My investment portfolio started just in 2017
- I have diversified it in Stocks, mutual fund, crypto, cash and peer to peer lending
A diversified portfolio helps. Never put all eggs in one basket, as they say.
Both individuals and entities can invest through Mintos. Individual investors must be at least 18 years old, have a bank account in the European Union or third countries currently considered to have AML/CFT systems equivalent to the EU, and have their identity successfully verified by Mintos. At the moment, US citizens or taxpayers cannot register as investors at Mintos.
