$1000 in bitcoin or XRP?

[silverleafy]

If you want to gamble, try ripple, if you want to invest into real crypto asset, then decide about investment into bitcoin.

I'm more confident in bitcoin because it has more volume and pretty good predictions for this year, which I can not say about ripple

[Papilio]

If you doubt the choice, divide in half, make a contribution to both bitcoin and XRP. Personally, I would prefer bitcoin.

[quanahri]

$ 1000 is not too big to make a profit
If I was I would choose BTC. This is the safest option. BTC is more powerful than XRP and that makes me believe btc more than xrp

Either invest $ 500 for btc and $ 500 for xrp.

I also support XRP
but I think that you can not invest in one coin
It is necessary to invest in several coins-5-10 coins for investments

[ooxtcoo]

I think I would invest only in bitcoin this thousand $, because within a limited time you may be able to see drastic changes in the price increase, especially if the timing in bull market within the week

No need to think, i will choose bitcoin with this, i dont trust the growth of ripple.
as most number of tokens are with the developer and its team.
they are just waiting for the pump and dump.
i will go to bitcoin and make it worth to hold.

Interested on what you think would be a better investment right now.What would have the best ROI?
I know XRP has a lot of bad press but purely from a investment point of view I’m hedging more towards XRP.

Why do you want to invest all of it in a single coin? I think you should consider multiple coins. There is no point investing all of your money in just one coin. Whatever you are saying about Ripple is right. People do not really consider it a good investment because majority is held by its stakeholders and they keep messing around with price. I suggest you go for a different Alt. Do have a look at IOS Token. They are currently running a promotional campaign and you can take advantage of its high price.

Here is only reason why XRP could give you any profit - It's if it gets a pump and that will only be a short-term action. Right now there's no indication of any pumps are coming in that..

This doesn't work when you ''only'' invest 1000 dollar , you will be spread way to thin. The risk may be lower but the returns are a lot lower too.

Ripple is a really good coin to invest in, I think it will give a bigger profit in the nearest future if to compare with Bitcoin. If you have some fiat money, it is a good idea to invest a part of it in XRP.

[Riga]

It seems to me that bitcoin is much more reliable than ripple. This is the most popular coin, so the risks when investing in bitcoin are minimal. Now is a great time to invest in bitcoin.

[kipozer]

In your place, I would not have such a question, I would invest with great confidence in BTC, because many on this forum believe that the XRP project is not really a crypto currency and has no future in general, but of course you choose.

[midorichain]

I would invest only in bitcoin because this is the main coin that will go up every year and ripple is a hype that will not show any strong growth 

[taiwww]

If you consider a long term then BTC of course, but if for a short term (about 6 months) then it would be better to take XRP.

Short term would be something from few weeks to the month or so mate. The 6 month period you talking about is still long term and many things can happen during that one. I mean in next 6 months from now I am sure BTC market will be huge take over and it will surpass all the trends currently. You will see how the prices will bloom in this industry before you blink an eye.  

XRP is old stuff but good stuff for the short term. However I would just suggest to put bucks into it for like one month or so but not more than that. Consider that one as red zone for it. Back off if something goes wrong in meantime.

Right now is a rather good time for bitcoin, but I would split it 40% for btc and 60% for promising projects with low market cap - Tomocoin, ZIpper, Zilliqa, Elastos and so on. This will bring much more profit.

[bitor]

Really good coin/token is PlayKey. Try to use it. This project will work very soon. Price of coin will be high and it raise up now very good.

Investing in bitcoin, you just keep your money, with a little exhaust in a couple of years. And with XP it is possible to earn a lot and in a short time.

[Stradivarioos]

People of course is good coin, but I am confused by the fact that about 60 percent of the coins are in the hands of the creators, I do not understand. Bitcoin is in my opinion a stronger coin and I would prefer to invest in it. But if we talk about how I would have done, I would have invested this in both of these coins.

Without any doubt I would go for Bitcoin. It is the one and only coin that is leading the whole crypto world. Ripple is OK for diversifying your investment, but not for main investment.
