What is the best coin for holding ? BTC or LTC or ETH ?

What can gain more profit by holding some time.

Thank you.

in my opinion btc will be more profitable.But eth and ltc also good.

Diversify and lock gains. In the end, there may be a totally new entrant to claim permanent top spot.

Hey
In my opinion, you should hold BTC. Lots of changes coming, good improvements to protocol, mass adoption, institutional adoption etc...
But it is good to diversify a bit, but the majority should be in BTC.
And hold, hold for at least 5-10 years :)

Among your three? Ethereum. Ethereum has the best business model for use of their token.

I presume you use Coinbase, based on where your interests are. But if you're willng to branch out a bit, you should consider Ripple. Ripple has a business model that major banks are already subscribing to, and it's way cheaper right now.

With 1 BTC almost at 20K, it's a no brainer.

the best should be Bitcoin.. ETH is next to bitcoin.. LTC is between them.. i prefer bitcoin than two other, the price should be the reason for holding it. the price will always rising up everyday, it is good way to make profit from holding bitcoin.

I would prefer you can hold 50% bitcoin and 25% ethereum, 25% litecoin. This is best choice to do.  :)

I think is very right cos as btc increases these also increase

If you have money, buy BTC, ETH and LTC. All 3 of it are good coins as what i read on the articles especially Bitcoin. I just bought some to hold until next year.

I think all the three coins are best for holding. Because In this time This coins are stay top on the chart.
May be it's price grow up more 2018...

make your portfolio to invest all these 3 coin,, i suggest bitcoin the most as investment place, then you may choose ethereum, the price still rise now, then litecoin is the third. litecoin keep make surprise to cryptocurrency. these 3 coins are good to be investment. keep making profit from them in next month.

I'd still prefer BTC among those 3. It is the original cryptocoin so its price is expected to grow even more as soon as more and more people will start investing in it.

Split up your money into this 3 coin. 50% btc 30% for ethereum and 20% for litecoin. They are all the best crypto coin especially the bitcoin.

unfortunaly I don't have a crystal ball.
I think, we always need some btc and eth for the fees or if you to invest in ico.

If I must hold only one, it will be btc.
But why don't hold these 3  ? 
Or if you want to take a little profit, you can sell for example 10%/20% of each ?
just a suggestion

I agree to buy all of the 3 and also a small amount on couple alt coins like riple and cardano for example.

BTC and ETH doubled their price within a month while LTC increased by 300%. If you're going big i'd say invest on btc but if you have a small budget go for litecoin/eth because bitcoin's fees right now will reduce your profit.

Trade your coins for ripple if you want to invest. You can use the wallet from the exchanges.

I agree, all three!

i was stacking eth, but i started stacking them all... i'm also stacking dash and bch though...

It depends if you want to risk and believe that ltc will has the same pump like he got recently. For me the best one of those three is etherum, lowest risk and you could earn some after not long time.

I'd suggest ETH as well. BTC will always be king but if you're looking for 'mid-term profits' I think Ethereum has huge potential.

BTC, but for me maybe LTC is better than ETH because of less fees and little less expensive to buy

ETH is the best coin to hodl..

Litecoin always have been a stable coin. Now coinbase support 3 crypto: BTC,ETH and LTC. Many small investors prefer to buy 3-4 LTC instead of ~0.05BTC.

All of them is pretty good, If i have only enough money I will split them 40% for LTC, 30% for btc and 30% for eth and I will wait for 1 year and check my balance. I think it be nice desicion. I will working on my funds to do this

ETH, BTC and LTC is great cryptocurrency to hold for the longterm
I suggest you to holding if do you have of bitcoin, ethereum and litecoin, someday the price will be increase and get a lot of profit.

I can see that eth has a lot of potential,  btc is also good but its hard to buy now especially the value is keep on increasing everyday. 

all of them are smart to hold and stock pile for the long haul, if you are looking to hold short term then I would say I would split whatever you have to invest between ETH and LTC.

All three are good .. but holding  bitcoin is less risk  ..ETH too has less risk

At present scenario to me it seems holding all the three coins is good idea as the price is now sort of stable and can rise too if some good news can come during the Christmas week. LTC has better chance to rise considering its lower price means higher chance for the rise as compared to btc which is already quite high.
 

I prefer to save Bitcoin rather than the Altcoin, because Bitcoin has a very tempting price, and have a lot of use.

Btc and Eth in my opinion. Both can go a lot higher than they are right now. We hope for the best.

Yes I aslo think so. Waves coin application is more interseting.I also holding some amount of Waves for future

If you look on the current position of altcoins now you can see that all potential alts are on its greendays and pumping deeply and many people are having an alt party since they earned more money for this current pump happening.




That two coins are having a good run so far and I think the ATH is never been happen nowadays so we can expect that there's more good things will happen on both eth and the bitcoins, And to lucky for those people who's not been affected for some fuds delimma these past weeks,months and years since they already earned the fruit of their patience since the price is bursting so hard.

All coin are profitable but BTC an ETH best for invest.

According to me all three are profitable but the first choice is always Bitcoin.

I like the idea of splitting over the three and dollar cost averaging your way in.  A little purchased every two weeks is a safer way to make an entry.

I recommended don't put all your eggs in one basket

It is fine and well to say that all three coins are profitable but which one do you feel safe with.
Ask yourself the question which coin is to days most sought after and then make up your mind.

It will depend on your strategy, but if I have the opportunity to invest in all three, then I am going to invest 33% in each one, the diversification of the investment is no harm.

You should allocate capital appropriately. BTC, ETH, LTC, BCH are potential, I think you should spend 40% on BTC, 30% on ETH, 20% on BCH and 10% on LTC.

Perhaps the share of the ether should be greater. I would still Monero added, although not for long term

If you have a lot of money, you should choose Bitcoin. The other two should be used in case you can not afford Bitcoin. However, the hierarchy in my opinion is:
1. BTC
2. ETH
3. LTC

If you are thinking about holding cryto coins then I suggest you hold the one with the highest price. Obviously Bitcoin will win this race. It is the most expensive online money. The reason I'm telling you this is, if the price is high then even a small change in the rate will give a big profit. And the way I see it, it's not likely that the Bitcoin is gonna fall. So Bitcoin is the one you should hold on to.

I would say Ethereum would be the safest coin. Bitcoin and Lightcoin jump around more than Ethereum. I think Ethereum has a lot of potential for growth as well!

Better to invest for both of them .. because there are times that btc is not increasing while the other altcoin are increasing..  why you not adding bitcoin cash there are investors are converting to bitcoin cash and miners are planning to mine bitcoin cash because its more profitable right now so i feel that we will see a large pump with bitcoin cash..

Always diversify. You can go with 50% BTC and rest of 50% split into 3-5 other cryptos. Still Ethereum had way bigger growth this year when compared to Bitcoin, same with Litecoin. It's not only about dollar values, it's about % of growth that you can have on your money.

I think all are Better to invest but now bitcoin price is low you can invest your money into bitcoin I think bitcoin price increase in the future. another thing that bitcoin will be more popular and more demandable coin in the crypto world.

 

There will be more profitable to you to invest a part of your portfolio into alternative coins, but you should decide yourself what purchase you want to reach

Best now is ltc in my opinion cause it has a little down compare to its price some time ago and i strongly believe that this coin will hit his ath in near weeks.

ETH, XRP, ADA :)  personally

Each coin has its own benefits: BTC still holds the scarcity edge with a max total supply of 21M coins by the year 2140 .. LTC on the other hand will have a max total supply of 84M coins, currently the circulating supply is ±54M so as it approaches its max supply I think the value will go up; also LTC along with DASH has a lot of promises as digital money. ETH has no max supply as of now, but its edge comes in the smart contracts capability and investing in the crypto economy.

Indeed diversity is definitely profitable and decreases the risk of putting your eggs in one basket.. remember to always invest money that you can afford to lose.


 I'm glad to answer other questions in my post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2690517.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2690517.0) or my Telegram Channel: t.me/crypto_qna (http://t.me/crypto_qna)

Definitely Ether in my opinion. Thousands of applications will be based on their technology.

Each coin has seen a significant growth in the past 12 months.
I wouldn't invest all in one coin, though, and disperse the amount into 4-5.
Invest a small amount in each, and then look for potential in other coins, too.

Some ICOs are developing solid solutions so a token of theirs could be worth more in 2-3 years time.
That can also generate profits.

With crypto, there's no telling which is the safest. It wouldn't be so exciting if everything was safe, without risk.

Bitcoin shows his dominance with huge growth from last two weeks but Litecoin growth rate shows why LTC is steady from last 5 to 6 month as last week new boost cryptocurrency IotA Litecoin in highest market cap but on 12 December show real power by again defeating IotA now Litecoin is chasing Ethereum because Bitcoin cash since last two week being steady so there is war between ETH VS LTC begin as on 11 December 2017 litecoin set its highest price record with 181 USD and expected to cross 200 USD marks and as we talk about Ethereum who was steady for 2 months then along with bitcoin IOTA and other cryptocurrency its start growing but as compare to Litecoin surely ETH has low growth ratio so be directly jump to Bitcoin for prediction which sets according to last two weeks in whi ch Bitcoin is price fluctuating within 5K USD gap.

All three are at the top! However, Bitcoin is above them all in terms of long-term stability. Ethereum has a positive outlook for the future, so look into it and see if it's something you'd like to put your money on.

Good luck!

What do you think about the NEXO coin? I think it can be 1 of the biggest rocket coins for 2018!

Obviously Ethereum. Ethereum is one of the newest technologies. There will be many applications or technology which will be based on Etherium Technology in future. One day It will be touch the moon  :P Ethereum has the goal to using a blockchain to replace internet third parties those that store data, transfer mortgages and keep track of complex financial instruments. It will be huge one day. In my opinion don't hesitate to hold ETH . I hope you will be touch the moon after few months  later 8)  :P   

to make holding the best are btc, eth and ltc are the most stable and give you acceptable return and are the most developed

BTC. in the long run if one of them increases in price usually the other two would increase as well
unless there are certain users who dump one for the others, for whatever reasons
but these day each of these coins have their own altcoin markets where they trade most
ETH trade volume influenced mostly by its tokens while LTC has very limited markets
if you can't decide, hold them all in your portfolio like this: 50% BTC, 25% LTC, 25% ETH

In this time with the cheap price of ETH ,BTC and LTC i advice you to hold all of those cryptocurrency

It depends on time when you want to earn and how much, cause investing in whole three should give you profit but investing in ltc will give it to you faster in other two in my opinion.

Litecoin is like a Bitcoin testnet and Ethereum is a completely different thing. If I were you, I would diversify and HODL all of em.  :)
