Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Herbert2020 on July 17, 2018, 05:28:54 AM in long term: bitcoin
in short term: shitcoins. it is obvious that bitcoin has a very strong long term potential and since its market is a lot bigger than altcoins then it is extremely hard to manipulate (pump and dump) it so the profit is purely based on real adoption and that profit is strong in the long run since it will surely go up and not come down in the long run. for instance last year it was $1000 and now it is $6000 so that is 6x profit in the long run. for altcoins there is no real adoption but only speculation. and because their markets are small and they are easy to manipulate (pump and dump) you get a lot of good opportunities to make a lot of profit in short term which is their pump period.

Second you on this. What the altcoin projects will not really tell you is that they are truly struggling for adoption. Even Ethereum's adoption is only due to ERC20 tokens, 100% a speculation market. The only real apps working on them now are gaming apps like cryptokitty. Even Ripple was recently begging people to please use their tokens. They gave away so much XRP (not that it matters since it cost them nothing) but even they know no one is using it. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Anniee123 on July 17, 2018, 05:37:33 AM If you pursue greater profits, then I suggest you invest in altcoin.
However, you need to keep in mind that greater returns mean greater risks, so you need to be careful. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC?

The answer will be absolutely altcoin, i have participated in the zilliqa ico and it has been giving me about more than 70x return since ico price. It's too late to invest in the bitcoin right now. you are forgetting the fact you should go out as fast as possible before the coin will get another dump and i thought that you must remember this one. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Mohamme on July 17, 2018, 05:52:49 AM If you want to get a bigger return, invest in ICO, because ICO is a channel for high returns.
HyperQuant is a good enough project, and I advise you not to miss it if you want to participate in ICO. ::) Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC?

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: melander81 on July 17, 2018, 06:09:52 AM Since I have just started my crypto venture, I was still learning and trying to figure out how to earn and increase my portfolio.
If you can afford it, now is the time to buy BTC. And hold it for as long as you can. However, from what I can see, Altcoins give a higher and quick turnaround. The challenge is finding which Altcoin to invest on. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: shirackjs on July 18, 2018, 05:18:35 PM IMO, Bitcoin is the one that give you good returns in the long term. It is recommended to diversify and also invest in potential Altcoin and ICO projects. By investing in the right Altcoin and ICO projects will bring you many folds profits.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: arthurgrand on July 19, 2018, 05:02:11 PM Investing in icos or newly listed coins are still giving a reasonable return on investment even in this lingering bear market. But you need to choose carefully which to invest in.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: ayu07 on July 19, 2018, 05:08:09 PM Well, Technological wise too, bitcoin is better than altcoins. Other coins might have increased the blocksize to reduce txn fees and txn time. But then, u cant really compare them with bitcoin cause they dont have the volume and traffic as huge as Bitcoin. They might look good now, but if they face volume as huge as btc, they might come up with hundres of new problems.
Now, u said , u are not talking on basis of price, well, u should, cause its an important factor, Bitcoin's huge marketcap will only help it in reaching the masses, make it more and more decentralised in all way possible and making it robust and more immune to manipulation by big n powerful , rich institutions and individuals. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: ongahawak on July 19, 2018, 05:08:37 PM Full disclosure, I don't think it's either the best or the one that will prevail in the end. There is too much drama llama and too many parties trying to manipulate it in one way or another. Technology-wise it's okay and fits the bill but it is the first version and by far it's not the best.
However it wouldn't be the first time and inferior technology won due to various outside factors. At this point in time, I don't really mind or care which one of them wins. They all have cool things about them and winning is all relative. We'll have a crypto for storage (potentially bitcoin), a crypto for spending (IOTA maybe?) A crypto for programmable money (perhaps ETH) and that's really swell I think. Trying to make one crypto to fit all needs can be a bad idea. Diversity is good! Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: daxiake on July 19, 2018, 05:09:28 PM They all have different use cases, bitcoin was the first to come and the one that gave birth to all of the rest, it's evolved over the years and it's gaining more and more popularity, no other alt with similar use cases will be able to replace bitcoin, there may be or perhaps most surely will be alts that will be by the side of bitcoin even price wise in the future with their relevant use cases but bitcoin won't be replaced nor will it fall, don't buy in the food, crypto currencies have a looong way to grow..

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Palider on July 19, 2018, 05:24:12 PM It depends in which alt you're going to invest, however for me bitcoin is still the best if you can afford to buy 1-2 BTC or more then you are safe in the future. Bitcoin is the strongest coin and it has the highest chance to increase more so i'd rather invest to safe and secured than risking money for not much higher profit.

You should have a diversified portfolio, Keep BTC and ETH % the most.

In my opinion, it is worth investing in bitcoin and altcoins. Altcoins are very good for the long term, while bitcoin can help in acquiring profits in a shorter time. Therefore, it is necessary to invest in both.

I would definitely go for altcoins.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: SamarasLoch on July 20, 2018, 05:50:58 PM Investment in altcoins should be your decision. Bitcoin has made its mark, it's already turn.
Although bitcoin still remains the king and has brought massive returns to the early birds but it's trend is now slow and yielding very little returns. But alts are making waves and producing massive returns for investors and traders alike. Investment in altcoins should yield more for you in the short and long term.

Post by: Rocktop044 on July 20, 2018, 06:28:50 PM Bitcoin offers you capital preservation (at worst) and a (possible) steady growth.
It has more long term potential. It us unlikely to rise astronomically in a short space of time. That us what altcoins can offer, high pumps, within a short frame of time. With that comes the risk of heavy dumps and possible loss. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: hrunya102 on July 20, 2018, 06:32:40 PM If you have the time, you can try both, part to invest in bitcoin for hold, part to buy altcoins, and part to try on new ICO projects.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: annstasia009 on July 20, 2018, 06:35:39 PM In BTC you need to invest if you want it for a long time, but other coins are not so reliable to store for a long period, so you need to think very carefully before making a choice.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: NikNikKomarov on July 20, 2018, 06:49:33 PM I believe that when investing in the crypto currency, first of all, it is necessary to minimize the risks of losses. Therefore, I invest in bitcoin, which is the most stable and popular coin.

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: 2fresh on July 20, 2018, 07:07:07 PM It's worth investing in good altcoins, the problem is most altcoins aren't much good. You can come across some real gems if you look hard enough.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: ProstoInvestor on July 20, 2018, 07:12:18 PM If you already have Bitcoin and Ethereum, then try to invest in ICO projects, but only very carefully.

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: rancidgash on July 20, 2018, 07:21:28 PM The biggest return you will get from both coins.

Bitcoin is very good in its development has been tested strongly in decades, it is advisable for people who invest in Bitcoin do not worry with every condition because every year will get the achievement, altcoin is not too bad as much as possible to choose the best coins to be on top with Bitcoin and Ethereum, ICO is great for the near future to get bigger discounts and sell after entering the market by getting more profit because after entering the market then the price will go down and back to be forgotten.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: nikotengik on July 20, 2018, 08:05:48 PM maybe altcoin is much more profitable as it can be purchased at an affordable price and gets plenty.

The reason I don't want to invest on alts is that those companies will create FOMO and make people buy and after buying you will be rekted. Altcoins always give me more profits as compared to the BTC. What BTC gives me is just security to my funds. If I ever wanted to keep my funds as it is for long terms then I will save most of them in the BTC form. BTC does give lot of profits and I have experienced that once in the December but that kind of profits are not always possible with it. Its possible with the ALT all the time because they are cheap in value and they are more prone to the hikes as compared to the BTC. So I will vote +1 to the altcoins here for their tremendous spikes. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Lambo14 on July 21, 2018, 03:18:34 AM I think better to sell all my alt and buy BTC .Rightnow loss more than 40% of my value

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: CEOKEY on July 21, 2018, 03:23:28 AM I have always believed in stability and the value of domination will increase over time of BTC electronic money. Therefore, I give BTC a long-term investment. But the Altcoin is equally attractive. Therefore, I also carefully selected and invested the Altcoin to make a profit. Time to invest in the Altcoin depends on the market and the Altcoin itself.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: BlueVelvet_ on July 21, 2018, 03:25:04 AM Btc went from 6.4k to 7.4k. Xrb went from free/10ish cent to $35. Ripple went from 2 cents or something to $3. ADA went from less than 1 cent (presale it was) to 1+$.
So...in two to three months you could've had better gains in specific alts then you would've by holding btc for a year. Like the other said. The moment btc goes sideways, the alts will have their time, and their gains can be bigger, simply because their potential growth (short term) is higher. also, take into account that Cryptocurrencies are programmable money. Different cryptos work with different programs. Some people don't care about market caps, triangles on charts, portfolio management... some people care about technical merits :o.

If you are not good in trading with many coins then stop doing it and focus more on where you are gaining by holding bitcoin.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: yndye on July 21, 2018, 04:20:23 AM Which coin gave you more return? Investment on Alts or ICOs or BTC? I have been holding BTC for a long time and I want to expand my portfolio. I have ETH holdings as well. I tried trading with many coins but never made of it. The reason I don't want to invest on alts is that those companies will create FOMO and make people buy and after buying you will be rekted. If bitcoin is rising then altcoins rise faster than bitcoin in terms of percentage because they have lower price but it depends on total market capitalization as well. You can also choose to invest in ICOs because it has a possibility that it will rise more when listed in exchanges but the opposite may happen as well. If the ICO has a holding period bonus then it would be better because there is a possibility that token holders would not dump their coins. If you want to be conservative then invest in bitcoin but if you want high risk but a possibility of having high rewards then investing in altcoins is good as well as long as they have good fundamentals.

Post by: BetadiNe on July 21, 2018, 04:43:54 AM if I have more funds, I feel better to invest with bitcoin, but because the funds I have are relatively small then I invested with ICO, yes even though it is risky, but I am happy to live it, it all depends everyone.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Dexion on July 21, 2018, 04:49:10 AM I think every altcoin, BTC or ICO has an advantage, only its value that different, and in my opinion, investment in altcoin has a greater result. but if its altcoin has good growth. besides that altcoin price is relatively very cheap.
here an investor should be able to choose a good investment place, you must go to market and analysis all aspects that could affect the value of bitcoin. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Laxus215 on July 21, 2018, 04:55:54 AM I think the bitcoin & ethereum is considered as the safest and stable cryptocurrency because they are already established and great players and leaders in their respective technology category. Investment in both will offer more likely modest return as they carry low risk as compare to all other altcoins.
If you invest in top 200 altcoins they can be riskier as some of them still to be launch their mainnet and some of them already launch their mainnet but still they are to be provide the exposure to their altcoins as they have promised in their white papers. However, if the success and if their adoption and user base will increase with good partnership they can give handsome profits. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: kirstiemorton23 on July 21, 2018, 04:58:26 AM you have had Bitcoin and Ethereum for a long time, you have taken the right steps, you have been holding Bitcoin and Ethereum for a long time, you want to expand portfolio, it's the right investment step, I think you should consider other altcoin you can buy Ripple or Eos or other altcoins, you can also choose a good ICO, you can analyze and observe ICO and participate in the ICO.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: kidflash on July 21, 2018, 05:00:50 AM At the moment, I am prefer investment in btc. Because btc will be bull run or bullish. If i am keep altcoin my asset will be down and I think convert to bitcoin will be okay.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: jasonjm on July 21, 2018, 05:02:47 AM I think return on bitcoin investment is more compared to altcoins. ICO investment is totally a different scenario. Prices of altcoins increases or decreases in accordance with bitcoin so it is better to invest in bitcoin.
In altcoin I think ETH is the best option for you in term of long term investment. ETH will give you good profit. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC?

The reason I don't want to invest on alts is that those companies will create FOMO and make people buy and after buying you will be rekted. Investing in bitcoin will certainly be a top choice for me. bitcoin gives me comfort and also a calm in investing. different with altcoin and ico projects that have very fast price movements. in total, bitcoin is much safer to invest. but for anyone who wants to speculate and want to try to gain bigger profits then ico proiect can be an alternative, but please be calculated that the risk is also much greater that we can lose all the money we have.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: iryboy on July 21, 2018, 05:03:09 AM I prefer to go all routes, for long-term bitcoin is the best option and for short-term and daily trading altcoins are good to make some bitcoin ;).
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: alkhie01 on July 21, 2018, 05:08:00 AM In my opinion, we should have both investment but in persentage it should be 70% of bitcoin and 30% of altcoins. Why? Simple because bitcoin is more stable than altcoins and bitcoin prove his worth for a Long time ago. Remember that before we invest we Need always consider the stability of the said coins and very popular with the other investors like bitcoin. And in other hand we also consider altcoins that are following the siccostel of bitcoin.

The reason I don't want to invest on alts is that those companies will create FOMO and make people buy and after buying you will be rekted. actually there's a good return in ICO investment site but it depends if it will succeed to reach the estimated price or let say the target and goals of the project. So i suggest before contributing on it don't forget to make a research to ensure you are in good project and there's a good return after. And also on alt coin same thing as well , wherein make some research because that's the most important and pick a coins that has a potential to hold in long run. Don't just buy without TA 'cause most coins nowadays turn into shitcoin after all. So alway bear it on your mind. And speaking about bitcoin ,well it still promising for me compare to some coins in the market , but it needs more patience .Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: CryptoAssasin on July 21, 2018, 05:45:27 AM If you are planning to hold crypto, try to ask yourself what type of investor you are. Are you a type of investor who wanted to hold this crypto for a long time and forget about it the sell it after over a year or you wanted to get an extra cash while working? For short time holding, that goes to altcoins then BTC for ling term HODL.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Rhegar011 on July 21, 2018, 05:52:46 AM Industry is moving towards new tech. Id seriously consider diversifying my portfolio. Go for neo, vechaim, qtum apart from bitcoin
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: mrcastelo on July 21, 2018, 05:59:00 AM In my own perspective, I would go 50:50 on altcoins and bitcoins. Especially now that Bitcoin is being eyed for ETFs this would be a good pontential for long term value or investment. Then I would trade 50% for altcoins because altcoins are much lower in price there you can see price sky rocket more than 20%. So you would have profit both for long term and in short term.

I do not agree with you. Every altcoin does not have an advantage since there are a big portion of them which have been primarily designed to rip off investors and scam them. Only the altcoins which are constantly being developed and which have huge communities will attract more and more investors which will help them survive no matter what. Coming to the question posted by op, investment in Bitcoin is far safer when compared to investing in altcoins.here an investor should be able to choose a good investment place, you must go to market and analysis all aspects that could affect the value of bitcoin. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Kirat9877 on July 21, 2018, 06:06:26 AM If you need profit you have to invest in Alts because there rating are mind blowing
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Aleh777 on July 21, 2018, 06:24:54 AM Alts vs BTC both are good for investments, long term investments only suits for altcoins. Because the value of altcoin depends upon the bitcoin price. If bitcoin price increases automatically altcoins price also increases. Bitcoin is good for both investments. We have to choose the altcoins from coinmarketcap and select the high potential and promosing coins from the list and then you invest. Then only the profit will be more while you sell.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: arimamib on July 21, 2018, 07:19:33 AM I prefer investing in bitcoin compared altcoin reason I think altcoin is better used as daily trading only. and I prefer investing bitcoin because of its higher confidence than altcoin
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: vallytech on July 21, 2018, 08:09:10 AM Well by experience I will say ICO gives more profit when you invest in good ICO, but these days because of bear market, it seems ICO investing is the worse these so buying altcoins is safer in these bear market.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Anhmai on July 21, 2018, 08:31:14 AM I like short term investment which is why I will invest in ICO. I am taking a pretty potent ICO that is Eloncity project a solution to the problem of global clean energy. They have a lot of recent activities in the 3 countries of Korea, China and Vietnam. That made me quite confident in this project. Altcoin still generates a lot of profit in the short term
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: An0nyMoose on July 21, 2018, 12:22:43 PM It depends on the kind of investment that I was looking into making at the time. If I was looking to invest for the short term then I would be investing in altcoins, they are better suited to be bought and sold in the short term for profit. If I was looking to invest for the long term then I would definitely be investing the money in bitcoin. With the potential that bitcoin has, it is better to invest in it for the long term.
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: waorana on July 21, 2018, 02:13:25 PM The strategy that until now has given me good profits in the cryptocurrency market has not been to invest on a single cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, but to diversify on various altcoins, also to reduce risks. Bitcoin and Ethereum are the two giants of the sector but there are other cryptocurrencies that have great potential for growth for the future
Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Mike Tyson on July 22, 2018, 08:15:00 AM Hi, everybody. In my opinion, it is worth investing in bitcoin and altcoins. Altcoins are very good for the long term, while bitcoin can help in acquiring profits in a shorter time. Therefore, it is necessary to invest in both. yes I agree with you. investing in bitcoin and altcoin is good because both of these coins have good prospects, attract a lot of people and also the profit is very big. so I think these two coins are very suitable we invest in long term long.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: BQ on July 22, 2018, 08:18:33 AM Bitcoin is more stable and less prone to crashing by itself, if bitcoin crashes then everything else crashes (usually more % wise), same for bitcoin gaining.
however, just as the top coins has changed over time, by finding the correct altcoin/token etc, you could very well earn many many times more by finding the right one. if you feel confident in your own decisions, then I'd definitely suggest putting some time into finding potential smaller valued crypto. I won't name those I'm invested in since I have nothing to gain from that, but if you want some tips on how to determine a good investment, you can read my thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3760625) :) Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: Anniee123 on July 22, 2018, 08:20:27 AM I will advise you to invest in BTC in both the long term and the short term.
Because BTC is currently at a very low price, however, BTC's lightning network is being deployed. Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: PeriKecilkitty on July 22, 2018, 08:44:52 AM Investing in icos or newly listed coins are still giving a reasonable return on investment even in this lingering bear market. But you need to choose carefully which to invest in. according to this issue, I agree. before you join any project, you should do some research first, because I am afraid you get a victim of fraud. and I suggest you should invest now because the market price is still low and suitable to buy more, and if the price has gone up you can sell your coins to get the benefits you want.

The reason I don't want to invest on alts is that those companies will create FOMO and make people buy and after buying you will be rekted. I do not feel that way, I get a quick return on the investment it's on altcoin but not just any altcoin I invest, I need analysis and the right time to buy / invest on altcoin, especially in estimating market movements. And, for now I do not advise you to invest in ICOs and altcoin, I do not know why the movement of both in attracting investors rather down from the previous months.Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC?

Title: Re: Investment in Alts vs BTC? Post by: nahnah on July 22, 2018, 09:28:05 AM indeed investing in altcoin or bitcoin is an attempt to make a profit but it is very difficult to choose a good investment that can benefit because there are currently so many altcoins registered in coinmarketcap, and to invest in bitcoin requires substantial capital because the current price one bitcoin is very high,

Post by: Duogembrot on July 22, 2018, 10:13:35 AM I think altcoin investment can provide a lot of benefits because altcoin has a very cheap price and very easy to make a price increase if the altcoin has a very good development. different from bitcoins that are very expensive and difficult to increase prices.
