is btc dead from an investment % point of view ??

[Maren]

To be completely honest, Bitcoin is pretty bad for an investment with percentage growth in mind, while not completely being dead. Various altcoins have shown higher percentage growth over the last years compared to Bitcoin which has been doing well itself, but not as good as a few altcoins. Its like Bitcoin is a risk-free long term investment while altcoins are completely risky investments and that's exactly why more growth can be expected from altcoins with a good foundation.

Bitcoin is by no means a risk-free long-term investment. It has had a fabulous run-up that nothing in history can match, but that doesn't mean anything for the future. Until there is a government with a strong army behind it, BTC can dissapear quite quickly. Altcoins can dissapear even quicker.

If BTC takes the fall, it drags the whole scene down from current lofty valuations.

impossible to double your money from holding your bitcoin at this price, why don't you invest potential altcoin it will increase your money up to x3. Bitcoin is not dead we can still earning in bitcoin if you only a short trade in bitcoin.

Bitcom is not yet dead, but now he is very ill due to his slow, hovering transactions with prohibitively expensive commission fees. That is, as a means of payment bitcoin is very bad. As for its attractiveness as a means for investment, then again, who will invest in such a non-functional bitcoin? While bitcoin keeps at the expense of its past popularity, but little by little it loses. Investors prefer to invest their funds already in altcoyins and therefore they are growing very well in recent times.

BTC is not dead from an investment perspective. It is just taking it's time. More patience is needed at this time of year. 2018 has just started there is still a lot in stored for BTC in the coming  months. For now just hold on to your coins it will all pay off in the next months as this is usually the trend of BTC.

Simple, ask yourself -- how many new people being added to the world every day?  How many people don't know about Bitcoin today?

Korea only made up 5% of the BTC trading volume but the news caused a 20% drop.  What do you think it means?

I think that bitcoins will never gonna die in any case, i had a full believe on it. Bitcoin has a good past but now there is some problem it is not increasing with the good rate which was in past. It is taking transaction fees which is creating some barriers against its trading. Small investors have to pay big amount which is not acceptable by the investors so they are now showing interest in investing in altcoins.

Bitcoin's price has been quite stable the past few days, which is good for a big currency. If you want to make profit on Bitcoin, you shouldn't expect the money rolling in within a few days, it takes weeks or even months. If you are into daytrading you should probably invest in altcoins instead of bitcoin since those are more likely to suddenly pump.

hey there

im holding btc but lately im wondering why as those funds in so many other alts would have at least 30-40% increased instead of decreasing like btc 


i know people say btc is stable (enough) but i as you are no doubt looking for max return hence is it no better to invest most of my btc into coins that will increase sooooo much more than btc this year ( for example ada will surely at least 3x-5x this year whereas if btc 2x from ath then we will be LUCKY by the way things are going )


thoughts ?

The difference between altcoins and BTC is that you are already sure that BTC will give you a good profit while other altcoins is just a hype wchich means it will dump hard than bitcoin. For example bitcoin dumped but didn't reach 100% loss while other altcoins will give you more than 100% loss.

No one can predict such a thing, but the thing we know is that more and more of the bitcoins have been mined and a some point the end will be reached.
Besides that more and more people get in contact with crypto, that together can still make Bitcoin rise.
