$5k on hand. Where to invest?

[DistantPattern]

Let's say I had $5k I'm willing to invest in crypto.
Where would you put this money if you were to invest today?

Eth, Neo, Waves?...or just throw everything at BTC?

[pearlsome]

wait for some more dump in NEO and GAS! Also check ETP coin - it will become same huge as NEO.

[schrodingersbitcoin]

ETP, NEO, WTC, LINK and BNB.

If you need more look also them: QTUM, SNM and SALT.

[Fahim]

Check XVG and SIAcoin - both are rather undervalued right now and there no more space to step back for them 

[pungopete468]

$5k is a really good capital to make an investment so its better to diversify your investments in different coins like bitcoin, ethereum, waves, digibyte, bitcoin gold and bitcoin cash as even if any one of them pumps in future you will be getting best profits as you cannot take risk of putting all your money at single place as if its price crashes in future then it will be very hard for you to recover your losses.

50% I would invest in ETH and NEO for long-term, other 30% in some mid-term coins, depends in which sphere: adx for ads, tenx for bank cards, komodo for privacy, etc. And other 20% for short-term coins depends on current situation on the market

Would you guys recommend Ripple as investment, Even after research its tough to decide.

Can't really say XVG is undervalued - its dogedark.. nothing really special about it. Lots of better coins to invest in imo.

I won't touch Ripple ever, idc what happens. It's also a centralised coin. Some have faith in it but I think that banks rather develop their own blockchain and don't really care about Ripple. It's a nice idea but unless it gets used its just as useless as bunnycoin. Maybe they will have some succes with smaller and private banks though.

Diverse your investment. 2.5k into BTC 500 into NEO/ETP/RPX/WTC/Request(or if you want to risk any trash coin that can 5-10x)

[Legendari]

It seems to me to invest all the money in bitcoin is too risky. I would divide your money between bitcoin, Ethereum, neo, waves, ltc and monero. This is a good coins that in my opinion should soon grow in value.

Diversify. 5K are more than enough to get a fairly diverse portfolio. I would combine BTC ( bigger share) with good, well established alts of your personal choice, a little of smaller coins and a dividend sharing asset if your choices are bad and you get someone to trade for you:)
50% BTC; 30% XMR and LTC; 10% KMD and XBY; 10 % TAAS. Rough estimates and the choice of coins may vary as e have plenty of choices.

I think Ripple will make money to many people. I personally don´t touch it unless it´s for very short term daytrading. Why? Centralized coin, Made for banks, and useless. You dont need the token to use the service. So it´s just for speculative trading, no use.

[Erowind]

Make sure to pick up some ETH, XMR and BTC

Those coins are a guaranteed gain and arn't going anywhere for years.

[HippiePyro]

Definitely buy Spectrecoin and Deep Onion.
If your looking for an ICO, I suggest electroneum, get an 11% bonus with the link below. You definitely should do your own research as these coins speak for themselves!

Same suggestion since these 3 coins would potentially give you future profits for sure but you would still need to wait for how many years and if you cant afford to wait then you can try some altcoins in the market too which i do suggest always choose up on those top coins in the marketcap because this is the thing what im doing. Usually just aim for those coins which do have a low total supply.

i think altcoins is the best to invest today because their prices are dropping therefore you can buy bulk cheaply, also bitcoin is a good choice if you want a stable and a long term investment but i wont suggest that you buy now because it is still high rather wait for some time or after the fork has been done for a posible dip in the price. investing in some promising ico's is a good alternative too , just make sure you know to choose and spot a legit one.

Look at XBY as well. When investing in my opinion we should diversify and definitely include the established ones. However disruptive technology should be in as well. We don´t know if they will deliver, but if they do It really gets huge. In this chapter of small coins with disruptive tech and small price i´m really excited about XTRABYTES, XBY.

[GreatOrchid]

Dont pay attention to the other ones who replied before, they are advising you to invest in those altcoins that nobody knows, the only good ones from that list is Neo and Gas, but you need to hold more than $200k worth of neo to make a good revenue from Gas. If you want to make good profit, then you should only invest that money on bitcoin, everybody knows that this has been the only coin rising in the last months while altcoins were only going down.
