Segwit is cancelled, hence you're noticing a drop in bitcoin value, reason people are no longer holding in wait for segwit to get free coins and also expected rise in btc value, instead people are now investing in low dumped alts.
I think this is the perfect time to invest in altcoins, because a pump is upon us people.
But don't invest in every coin, just to more reliable ones, especially those who were high before this recent bitcoin hike.

I'm going with Ripple, Nem and DGB for now. Because these are solid investments, and I can sense a pump for them in the comping days.
You can invest in your favorite alts, or maybe buy more of you already own to lower the average buy value so you can maximize your profits.

Yeah #altsareback for sure, this new attention BTC got from reaching ATH attracted a lot of people that are just hearing about the pletora of investable assets, we'll definitely the top 10 by market cap benifitting from new and old fiat money in Crypto. I like the 3 mentioned names, would add Dash, NEO, XMR, LTC and IOTa to that list. Also some  shitcoins  that got hammered during BTC's bull run!

I think that this is the perfect scenario to buy altcoins, they all were in a downtrend for more than months, and now they are slowly recovering, they all are in green numbers again.
I have bought some monero yesterday, but i will not buy more altcoins because i have never trusted in them at all, i just only see them as an investment opportunity that has to be dumped in a few days after you bought them because they are ten times more volatile than bitcoin, and this is true, if you look at the charts you will notice that it is really happening.

Agree to the choice Ripple and NEM, but DGB purely for speculative purposes. I do not see the prospect in Dgb

I also think that this is the right time to buy buy altcoins as Segwit2x is cancelled . I am going with waves , mobilego, IOTA . Now lets see whats happend .

Ripple? Really? I would not have it as a core holding. I'd have BTC, ETH, XEM, NEO, IOTA, LTC and LSK as core holdings (proportions up to you), all of them I think are worth to have as core portfolio. From that you could expand into some other alts you like.

As soon as I heard the fork has canceled, I have invested like 100 $ in altcoins. I got almost 146 $ now :D

the prices already started to rise, way earlier in the day. the right time to buy was a day or two ago imo, when the prices were still low

Yes I recenlty bought some Neo and some vert coin and they are already mooning, I am waiting now for the dips so I can even buy more of them, these are my favorite coins.

I have read all the comments and now i know what coins to buy and sell. Since as far as i remember i buy only once in dgb..and other coins..sadly..others drop:( thanks for the information of evrybody..Hope to see lot of shares what alts nice to buy in trading.

this now is good buy altcoin use ETH not use bitcoin
because ETH price relative stable price, if buy altcoin use bitcoin, and bitcoin price down and crash and all altcoin price inraese
profit not maximal if value use fiat money

Yes, I agree that it is a good time to buy altcoins, but as allways, I recommend to do your own research before investing into any coin. Check the whitepaper, team behind the project, reputation, market cap. Do they have a website? Are they active in a community? And buy when the price is low, sell when the price is high. This Could be one strategy. The other one is to forget about the coin and hodl. It is up to you.

To be honest, I can not see that big drop in the price of bitcoin. Rather it has remained stable above $7,000 despite the remarkable swing caused by the news yesterday. I will never consider a wise decision to change our valuable bitcoins for any altcoin. In any case, if you plan to invest in altcoins, buy them with ethers or fiat money, not with bitcoins.

I agree that the time of the bigger altcoins pump is already over, cause after the segwit2x cancel a lot of people were coming back to the altcoins and now they are already like the price before all this B2X Drama.

For me it's really annoying, cause I planned to invest more in a few coins that all got up like 30-50% in 1hr. So I was too late, just because bitcoin and it's unreliability (and probably a bit of corruption) can just do this, because the big guys decided not to the hard fork when it was just one week to go!

A lot of people lost money here, because they relied on bitcoins and it's forks/changes, but this just shows how badly the people destroy this coin. I say nothing against bitcoin, but currently people going to use it's popularity in a really bad way.

This is exactly what I am doing. I buy some altoins as much as I can afford And I still holding my valuable Bitcoins. Seems that bitcoin price will not drop as there is no panic selling. The community believe in bitcoin very much. It cause the the price to not drop.

I think it's a bit premature. The fact that everyone in this thread is so hopeful and has already declared that the bear market is over tells me otherwise. I picked up a couple small bags during the dumps yesterday morning, but only micro caps for long term investment. I'm not taking any trading positions in alts yet.

Most of the altcoin charts have not formed a solid base -- usually that means more sideways and retesting of the bottom, if not just continuation of the downtrend. I'd like to see more blood in the streets before I start really buying into alts again.

Well, Bitcoin drops but I think if you have funds buy some altcoins. Panic selling will cause of lose and not the best deicsion to do. Invest in some alts that is profitable.

A lot of fiat entered the crypto market with newcomers who were buying into BTC given its recent hype, hopefully that cash will now stay in circulation as crypto and go into alts. NEO, OMG, ETH, VTC, ZEN all have performed as expected, since they were doing well before BTCs period of dominance and some even managed to buck the BTC uptrend too - those are the real stars to hang on to.

People say that every time there's an altcoin fall with bitcoin's price rising. Alts are no safe heaven throughout they have a greater risk factor than bitcoin and a high covariance, meaning that investing in bitcoin is better by all means. Even historically, it's been proven the best choice.

Alt coins are very volatile. I invest only in projects I truly believe in, I find the short term goals do not really yield me much profit so hope to hold for a much larger period. If they can keep delivering then maybe the price will rise and that will be a good time to sell. The perfect time for me is if the base price is good, I have spare 'invest-able' money and I believe in the project.

there are lot's of alts that are worth buying now like omisego, plr, waves etc.We better grab the opportunity to save some since not all have the opportunities to know that we are able to earn from it by just holding them, We should also grab the chance of btc decrease to buy more, btc is the future cryptocurrency and it will sure to pump again. Its good to balance having potential alts and btc for crypto markets were unexpected.

Yes it's a perfect time to buy some alts now and you have the coin that's in my list and that is DGB. Go for the goal there's a lot of things that gonna happen to DGB so long term holding it is also good. Better to go with those coins that are undervalued but that does have a real project and support from their developers, community and has a real use for it.

Today all alt ups to 15%, Time to sell :-)

You are right. There will be a huge shift happening. The influx of Bitcoin buyers will be shifting to the altcoins and the flow of altcoin buyers have already started. This is going to be a big party for all altcoin fans and holders. We are going to see some green colors everywhere. My own portfolio has actually started climbing and showing potentials of more upward movements since yesterday afternoon.

I think it is really a good thinking. I am personally doing this in this situation. Seems that buying altcoin now is the right time to make a good profit. Ripple is obviously good decision for investment. There are lot of coin but we should invest on legit and live coin.

This time is good for altcoin traders because the bitcoin hardfork news will effect the market and the news is, the bitcoin hardfork is cancelled and the date is extended so that is why bitcoin demand or hype of hardfork and profit will decrease and investors start to buying altcoin, So that is why altcoin price will go up and profit chances are also up in altcoins.

Yes Ripple is a good buy, ETH and IoTA are good buys as well. Totally support these projects as they have all proved to offer real value to the communities, and it's nice to see that investors have taken note of that. Since the BTC fork has been cancelled, all the money has been flowing into alts and will continue to do so, because people won't be getting any free coins as they expected prior the fork. Total market cap is at about 200 billion and it was about 20 at the start of the year, half of that value is coming from Alt's so yes, alts are definitely a good buy right now and for the future.

We saw some nice bounces after the fork was cancelled! But maybe we see some correction together with Bitcoin.. After that we could see a altcoin and Bitcoin rally! :) But lets see what will happen  ;D

I bought alt when the price of bitcoin is surging up and a few hours after the cancellation was announced. I quite timed it right because the price of alts way very down. I am invested in ETH, NEM and waves.

I am quite tentative if it is still right time to buy more alts because it have recovered a lot since the cancellation. But we have not reached the value of alts before bitcoin mooned. So I guess there is still room for some profit.

I will rather wait till January before adding more ALtcoins to my portfolio, I believe there will still be another buying opportunity around that period when people will need money

when i hear about that Segwit2x is dead i buy some alts at once , because i think the fund will move to altcoin and

now i think my guess is right  8)

Yes defiantly buy some ETC , LTC , NEO , LBC , KMD ,XMR  but make sure to do your own researches before choose don't do what the people say , first you learn then you can earn ;) good luck !

I have been sitting on all of my alts just waiting for 2x to happen.  Now that it is cancelled so many people are going to get back into alts we are going to see some huge gains

I agree with you, after segwit2x canceled, its time to raise Alt-coin. But i don't understand why all investors shifted to BCH suddenly. I was hoping to rise ETH, many of us same hope, so I converted most of my BTC to ETH. But ETH remain totally stagnant with not much movement. I got really disappointed by ETH performance in last few weeks. Hope it will get back in form soon.

Whales moved to BCH to make some profit. That's why altcoins price rise postponed as many people decided to move to BCH and some are waiting till market becomes stable. Soon It will be altcoins turn to be pumped.

Well highlighted. The price drop would see the bullish of some promising altcoins. For me, I think SIC will do well with time at least it has been refusing to stay below 100sat - this is good.

Again, investing in ucoin won't be a bad business. I'm looking forward to that  ;D
