Better investement right now, bitcoins or Altcoins.

[ILoveOnions]

I would go for some NEO, LTC, ZOI, LTCU and DeepOnion
I think BTC might go up first, but these will definatelly follow back up!
Cheers and good luck!

A rather complicated question.  In general  i support a diversification of the portfolio in order to minimize the risks. So my advice is to invest in bitcoins and altcoins.

This is the best strategy. I think short term bitcoin will out perform alts because it's price is much lower relative to where it was a month or so ago. Across the year many alts will outperform bitcoin and many will be outperformed by bitcoin, therefore a balanced portfolio will be best for any serious investor.

Cryptocurrency is a diverse place to invest, there are many cryptocurrencies for investment.
And of course, there are also have some scam or trash coins, but to be honest, we can not avoid this situation, because where has profit, that place will have trash and scammer.

It depends on how much money you would like to invest for the long term. If it's more than a couple thousand dollars it would be wise to diversify between let's say BTC, ETH, XMR, XRP, ZEC and a few rising and promising coins like Cardano or NEM (of course I'm saying from personal preference, coins may be a bit different for you). If it's less then a thousand, you may just buy BTC and hodl, too much of a hassle to diversify with dust

If I planned on buying some coins today. Which would be the better long term investment, and why?

Its depends directly on how much money you have. If you have now a pretty substantial amount, I should say: invest on BTC, for its price is low now and you can earn money in a short time.
If you don’t have a lot of money and you want to make a tiny invest, maybe you should choose an altcoin, as Dogecoin.

There is also a third panorama, the intermediate one, where you have money enough to buy an important altcoin, as BTC Cash or Ethereum. I would choose this option If I had enough money or if I had a lot of money and didn’t want to spend it all.

Those three options are good enough to see substantial profits anytime soon.

With the continuous drop of all crypto coins I suggest to diversify your investment bought few in BTC, Stellar, Xem, XRP & ETH I  guess this coin have the solid support compared to other crypto currency we don't know yet where the bottom of this bearish season so just add few when price drops. everything has its end and so this bearish market for crypto.

[pinoyden]

today the prices for bitcoin and altcoins have fallen very much, and investments in them in the future should bring a high profit, the main thing is to choose altcoin

you already said that both bitcoin and altcoin's value have fallen , so how can you say that they can still bring a high profit in the future? as the day goes by , their values is also dropping especially in the case of bitcoin. therfore theres a big posibility that bitcoin ia starting to burst like a bubble and altcoins would soon follow to it. overall investing right now isnt really recomended because the risk is pretty big and seriuos as we dont know what future holds in the cryptocurrency scene.

divide your funds to the top four coins,bitcoin and the 3 following alts.since the price now are too low,that you can even invest in lots of coins..bitcoin 50% etreum 25% litecoin15% then find other one for the 10 more percentage

For long term I'd say Bitcoin is better because it still is the king of cryptocoins and the one which has a longer story so far. But if you need higher returns, altcoins with lower marketcap are certainly better. But keep in mind the higher the returns the higher the risks.

For myself, bitcoin is the best crypto currency for investing. It is better to be less than X but more stable than a lot of X but with very high fame to stay without money. On altkoynah you can earn more but the risk will be very high.

[lagoon88]

Both bitcoin and altcoins have got a very good potential. You can invest both of them.

[rickz026]

For me? better to invest in bitcoins. The rate of BTC today is dump. 1BTC~8920.89$ this rate is too low. And this is the time that buying BTC is applicable. if you buy BTC in that rate when the BTC rate will be high you will have a nice profit. Therefore, it is better to invest in BTC today because of low rate of BTC~USD

Bitcoin investment is for long term and altcoin isn't for long term like bitcoin, but if you have full time trading,

both of the can be a short term trade. for now bitcoin is good choice, because bitcoin price going down everyday,

so you can hold it for a while.

[noloco]

It depends what altcoin you are investing in, some are so attached to bitcoin price that investing on them will mirror bitcoin price with a bit of extra volatility.

bitcoin are some of the best thing to be made as your choice to be that this is one of the best coin that are been take for , the way on how we made some out of it. Bitcoin are always to be chosen for but may have some to choose altcoin for cause i believe that this two are both good also , the popularity is one of the reason why bitcoin are to be chosen for.

The fact is that Bitcoin if will carry out a good profit, then only in the distant future. But if you take into account the good altcoin, then these coins can bring profit not only every day and week, but also a fairly good profit. Therefore, it's better to turn your attention to altcoin, not Bitcoin.

Always should be a mix! You have to create a portfolio for success. Saying invest in only altcoins or bitcoin is not the right question, rather what % you should invest in each. You should always have a significant portion invested in Bitcoin and/or ETH ~ 30-50%. side note: with ETH market cap approaching BTC, BTC may be an altcoin soon .

Maybe today you can buy is Bitcoin, and it is the right choice for a better long-term investment, because in Bitcoin you can get big profits, with significant price increases.

In addition, Bitcoin has an appeal and most importantly a significant increase in Bitcoin, for example in the past year that the price increase reached 1200%, that's very unusual.

If you have a little patience and have info of fairly reputable altcoins, let invest for alcoins. The profit potential in investing on altcoins is enormous.
Bitcoin may not be quite as sturdy as we thought earlier, but it is still a very strong player.

Altcoins have the greatest potential for quick profits. I'm disappointed in bitcoin.. He has an unstable price, and it is poorly responsive to negative news.
