I can not advise you, just I da little advice if you want to get the benefits of buying all coin whose price is still low and there is going to be rising weeks, months, or years ,,

I think best bet for anyone who has a stable financial status currently should go into this for the long haul for many different reasons.

If I prefer bitcoin rather than ethereum, because bitcoin has a good future for investment. But if you are in doubt, you can buy both, half for bitcoin and the other half for ethereum.

And what is there to say bitcoin is now a little cooled in the price and does not show the level that before, but for the ETH I would have taken thoroughly. So as for me it is necessary to look to the future and not to live in the past.

I would not suggest that. Bitcoin is forever the king of crypto whatever its price is. Ethereum is also a projec that is going to be big future too but for traders this may not be the time period for a good investment. Currently ether price is high because of a upcoming Hard Fork. I would suggest people to sell ether and take advantage of this price pump than wait it out.

As for portfolios Bitcoin should be 60% or more.

Currently, there's no altcoin capable of outdoing bitcoin, not even ethereum which seems to be rising so fast in recent times and so i will always recommend bitcoin ahead of ethereum or any other altcoin out there in  this present time.

[Herbert2020]

there is always a level of risk involved when investing in cryptocurrencies. you should first try to assess that risk and accept it before trying to make any investment.

for bitcoin i'd say this risk is small even though currently there is not much movement in the price. bitcoin will always remain the biggest cryptocurrency because it is constantly improving and with all the additions it will be very far ahead of all the other altcoins. and with the adoption it has, it will grow much bigger.

altcoins including ethereum are so much riskier because of a lot of reasons. such as problems they are facing including scaling. and the thing about altcoins is that there are a lot of them. the competition is among those and since most of them such as ETH has big premines and lots of manipulations it makes their market a lot less trusted even if it is more profitable.

For short term, just put that money on Ethereum until it reaches $1500 or $2000 at least, and for long term, bitcoin, of course. But they both are going to give you nice profits during this year, so do not be afraid of putting money in there

This year EThereum will try to chase the bitcoin, ETH are a lot of positive signals to be able to grow strongly this year. Bitcoin will continue to increase but it will not be as good as in 2017, despite the fact that the crypto market is very good, which is because the bitcoin is too valuable and that makes bitcoin very difficult to boost up like last year.

Yes that's true, ethereum this year was very good in price increasing maybe this is you're time to grab in bitcoin while bitcoin now dump. I can't push you where you going to invest between that two cryptocurrency, but if you let me to decide which better to invest i must prefer in bitcoin. This is a opportunity to invest bitcoin, there's many predictions on expert in bitcoin price movement it will rising back after 6 months from. So, this is the right time to invest your 500$ let say 70% of btc and 30% of eth.

I personally think $500 is not gonna give big amount of profits if you invest it on bitcoin so it is better to go with ethereum.Ethereum also has good future so it will give decent amount of profits if you can hold it for longer term and also there is a fork coming up for ethereum so you will receive free coin also if you invest it on ethereum.
If you want to make good profits in short term then better to choose some other altcoins rather than BTC and ETH.

You can replace your money into investment or trading, my question is which one you want? choose btc if you want to invest and trade for eth. But I need to say this, you should wait until February for invest ( btc ) but you can try trade with eth at this moment. The reason is, price action is not good for both of them ( dump ), so, you need wise strategy with your money. Good luck with you.

Obviously, Etherum attracts investors with independent price movements, but it remains vulnerable to Bitcoin's sudden price increases. For this reason I am completely recommendable; you will be buying Bitcoin and Etherum in equal amounts.

Is Etherum heavily affected by Bitcoin's price fluctuations or does it just cause minor changes?

Bitcoin and ehereum has a great value in future and it is used by a lot of people today investing these both currencies gives you a great future and etheureum has increasing everyday and bitcoin is one of the developed currencies so you can make a investment equally .

ETH is now on a constant grow and has a bigger grow rate than BTC, so i would go to ETH at current moment

Both are good for long term trading so it's up to you what will you choose. Both can give you decent profit even just by holding it. But since it's only $500 you won't feel profit that much unless their price will really pumped hard.

Since you are new I can't suggest you to proceed on other altcoins since it's more risky but the reward is decent if you play it right. I suggest to just build experienced first by doing experimental trades. Yes you need to risks a bit of money to get start. While holding you can practice how to trade on other coin that only requires small amount ($100 is enough). This requires analyzation so you really need to spend time learning.

If you are not comfortable taking a course to advance level at the moment, then just buy either BTC or ETH and hold.

I would say to invest your money only in one basket is a bad idea unless you have true beliefs of that coin or the project.

If it was a month ago I would have told you to buy Ethereum, but currently ethereum is counted as high, but in crypto the sky is the limit so you can never know when it can hit the ATH, but I know another coin you maybe should look into currently I'm into privacy coins like xvg , monero and stuff like that
but best of them all would be deeponion currently it's on a dip whales holding it back down so they can buy more , and each mid of the week it pumps up look at the last 7 days chart you will get what I mean, in this coin you can even join their airdrop they have another 14 drops , check it out, I'm out.

Long term Ether for sure. It is easy to build on has thousands of tokens, more than a few in the top 20. You can do so much with it and it will only keep getting better with the forks. There is no set amount but as the network gets more useful the use will increase to compensate for that. 

[goyal.dkg]

If you want a choice between btc and ether , then i will suggest btc as of today for 2-3 month hold .
bcoz btc is too much stable from 1 month , so it may start rising anytime .
ethereum already up 70-80% in last 15 days . so it will be stable below 1500$ .

for long term hold - 1-2 years then buy ethereum , bcoz % growth of ether will be more than btc .

Ethereum, of course, but $500 is almost nothing in here, maybe with ethereum you can double it in a short time than if you invest in bitcoin.

Everything has a risk in here, so not give you fake hopes because everybody knows that there are a lot of cases in where a lot of people lost a lot of money because of investing in things that they did not even understood at all..
