Buying Alts with ETH or BTC

[Chicksteen]

So do you think other coins do not fluctuate? You should know that the whole crypto has a high fluctuation potential. I think your choice is correct to buy alt with btc or eth, because the best pair in trade is btc or eth.

I agree. Bitcoin and ethereum is safest crypto where to invest with because it has good potential for growing. Every coin fluctuates and you have to analyze it before you decide for the value before buying. It is good to buy high volume of each coins and hold it for the long time because the value now is more cheaper which can give good profit in the future.

It is amazingly confusing for me to understand whether to buy ETH or BTC to trade for ALTS. I plan on holding a good % of BTC and ETH in my portfolio, but when it comes to these fluctuating BTC and ETH prices, I'm never sure whether to buy one first to trade for ALT coins.

Any suggestions?

altcoins fluctuate more than bitcoin and ethereum.  being in low market caps, altcoin prices can be manipulated easier, thus fluctuates more.  this presents advantages for traders as they can use this to earn more.  greater risk = greater reward.

Usually, you want to buy another coin. You will have to buy it with bits or eth. For me, I am only interested in btc. It's the best coin for me. It may not be high profit, but it helps my account to be safe during the transaction

I think it depends on what we have, if you have eth then you can buy altcoin with your eth and if you have btc, you can buy altcoin with your btc. but for me, if I have both bitcoin and ethereum, I will use btc to buy altcoin because I think it will easy to calculate the profit use bitcoin and maybe you prefer to buy altcoin with ethereum.

If you are an Investor at ICO, then I make sure to choose Ethereum, because Ethereum is always at the forefront of investors for ICOs.

Bitcoin is used for short-term trading like I did at Bittrex.

 I believe bitcoin fluctuates less than Eth, so if you're just looking for a coin to trade with alts, it should be BTC...In this situation, it can be noted that the success of Ethereum lies in a more realistic attitude to the future problems of the digital currency...

I think it depends on what we have. Some have ETH and some have BTC. So it depends on what you have. Personally, I use these both. because I have ETH and BTC. So I buy altcoins using these both coins. But, most of the times, I using BTC for buying tokens. If you need to make an investment in the ICOs, Use the ETH for that. ETH is much better to it. However, these two are great currencies for use.

Personally, I prefer to buy Altcoins with ETH, because Ethereum transactions are faster and cheaper. In addition, many tokens can be purchased only with ETH. I'm sure most of the traders in the cryptocurrency market is using the ETH.

You better HODL Bitcoin because units of Bitcoin are easier to calculate than Ethereum.
But many also say that they chose Ethereum and I make sure you choose your choice and I better use Bitcoin than Ethereum.

I know that the market price of coin BTC and ETH is very good and can be trusted. my advice for you to buy BTC is the right choice you can hold in the next few months or years to get the selling profit when the market goes up. at this time the price of ETH is also cheap if your capital is still enough you can buy ETH. holding two coins or more in the best coin is great.

You should do that. Do not just invest in eth and btc. Altcoins are also a great way to make money. You can trade daily with CS. Or with any coins you like.

Mostly it is better to buy the altcoins with eth since most of them are on the ethereum network but really it does not matter what you buy the coins with, the fees are the same and there is the same amount of coins being gotten. Mostly I just buy the coins with ethereum since that is the coin I still have the most access to and most of my bitcoin is locked up

[veter2601]

Btc should be a priority coin for long term investment because he is trusted by the greatest number of people . It is the most stable coin . The second trust coin, eth. Taking into account the fact that the cryptocurrency market has a great volatility , investing in altcoins is a big risk of losing their investment.

It`s more or less personal choice here as ETH and BTC are the most stable and reliable tokens. I choose Bitcoin for all my transactions/hodling, but totally understand if someone prefers Etherium.
