Do we really need to hold altcoins

[Iyanu14]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

[udayantha11]

from my 1 year experience on the crypto currency. i always keep alt only. alt is very good investment compare to btc. if we need to invest on btc , we have invest lot of. but in alt we can start with little money. if you find potential alts you are rich.
these days my picks are

PRL
ZIL
SENC

[panjay]

if you someone who likes to just invest, bitcoin will be the king today and almost in the future. So throw your money at alts riskier than BTC. But if you someone who wants to get more BTC, you should trading ALTS. I mean alts by design is to make more BTC. well, dyor and this not an investment advice.

[Mt. Dempo]

I have only been in the crypto for a few months, during which time I see that bitcoin is still an indicator and can affects other alt, whether it will go up or down. I am also not good at researching and choosing an investment, therefore I only hold the bitcoin and alt popular (top 10 alt in cmc).

[Ridwan Fauzi]

For an investment you are free to choose bitcoin and altcoin because that will be worth. I'm not going to decide that this good coin or that coin is not good, it just makes me a fool. But that make me a strange is, someone who come and investing in cryptocurrency they just choose bitcoin only for an investment, they just altcoin only for an investment I mean they didn't choose bitcoin. But I have a confidence for those people who came to this world they will have invested on altcoin and bitcoin.

[MadGamer]

From the thousands of coins and tokens that exists, probably 5-10 that are usable for a specific reason and no, CoinMarketCap is not an indicator of how useful a coin is. For example, Bitcoin is a must to hold while BitcoinCash is simply a shitty fork regardless of its current price. Ripple is centralized and It's unlikely to go anywhere in the near future and so on..

[Nekrasova]

Alt  is very Good Investment, so it is good to hold

[Pearls Before Swine]

probably 5-10 that are usable for a specific reason

I'd say it's even less than that.  Bitcoin itself barely gets used for anything that resembles real commerce.

ETH?  Never owned it, and I'm not sure what it's good for other than ICOs
LTC?   It's always been silver to bitcoin's gold, but does anyone really spend it?  Doubt it.
DOGE?  Nope.  Nobody spends it and very few places take it, and you can't earn it.

And there are a whole bunch of similar coins of varying popularity.  What they all have in common is that people buy and sell them for the sake of doing so, and they serve no economic purpose.

No, you don't need to hold altcoins unless you want to be one of the cool kids.

[Vanester2014]

It depends on you if you realy want to hold your altcoins no ones bother you about that. If your see that you already earn a good profit then why not, the main reason why i am holding my altcoins since i dont have  a good profit yet so i will hold it and patiently wait for a good chance to sell in higher price as i can earn a good profit.

[HALLASTERA]

I think only 2% of all altcoins grew up in the proportion altcoin/btc. I think you must hold some of them for get more profit than in bitcoin. In my portfolio one, two stable altcoins and bitcoins.

[Arroware]

my opinion Altcoin price depends on bitcoin price, for me both also very good we get better income, moreover you can do trading for me You will more easily make money in a short time. if for me want to hold bitcoin in long term very good us by waiting for higher price.

[ICO Lancer]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Depends on the altcoin of course. I think the top 10 or so coins are definitely worth holding.

The more small and volatile coins, you might try trading those or shorting

[Xclusive5]

I respect her opinion but what I see is that there are some altcoins that have more usage than bitcoin and they have the potential to grow in the future. My conclusion is that its ideal to hold bitcoin and other good altcoins.

[Red-Apple]

nobody can deny the fact that if bitcoin falls, altcoin will fall too and some of them  will fall even bigger.

so the real question is why do some people think if they hold altcoins they are diversifying? diversification is true only when you are investing in something that does not rely on the same thing you have already invested in.

on top of it investing for long term is only good if you are investing in something that has a real future not speculative one. altcoins are pure speculation and because of that their future is very risky.

[mylyn2327]

It depends on you it's your own free will wether you don't want or invest in alts. There's many potential altcoins so for me it's okay to hold alts, I myself holding alts and I can say it's worth holding for.

[kier010]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

we don't really need to hold coins but because we want to earn profit we want to hold altcoins. well it is true that altcoins are dependent to bitcoin but there are altcoins that give you more profit by holding them. altcoins give more options which can give you more profit if you choose the right one.

[Btcalimie]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes, you are right but I think altcoin can give you multiple times of profit even if it relies on BTC.

[sunX3]

I think if you really believe in the altcoin and the project, then yes, hodl.

If not, then you can try to trade and exchange for more profit.

[deghpulsa]

it is true alt price depends on bitcoin, if you have a lot of money you can use it for bitcoin investment but if you have little money, you can use it to buy altcoin and if you want a long term investment then dogecoin is a good investment and has great potential with very low price less than one dollar.

[liivii]

It all depends because for me altcoins have two categories, those major coins that is good for long term holding like what we do to bitcoin while the other altcoins are just for day trading. By separating those altcoins you will know which are belong to major coins and they are ethereum, bitcoin cash and other known altcoins that are on top of the market as of today. And if you are a day trader I know you have idea what are those coins that's good just for short term investment and not for holding for a long time.

[Zyborg]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yup we need to hold strong Altcoins.entire crypto depends upon BTC,when BTC increases Altcoins increases and vice versa.I am holding those coins which are based on solid project and have great potential to grow exponentially.in my crypto portfolio I have ETH a high profile altcoins and now a days growing,I will hold it for long time.other Altcoins which are presently undervalued and will grow tremendously are also part of my crypto basket like ADA,NEO,MIOTA,EOS.

[btccoffee]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Not necesary because if you already earn a good profit for that then you can sell your tokens anytime you like. I am a long term trader but if i see that i have a good profit already in my tokens i would sell haft of them and take my capital then my profit will hold for a long term. Holding is the best and easy and also low risk in crypto trading thats why pro traders usualy recomend hold.

[Lazada]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Altcoin is quite high risk, but if we can choose altcoin correctly then we can get a great profit. Utilizing the action of dump and pump can make us gain profit, it is actually more to a strategy because with a good strategy then we will be able to produce something satisfactory.

[mandibleclaw]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Most people just trade altcoins to accumulate for bitcoin but I really think that a lot of alts have an original purpose, something that simply bitcoin can't do.
Especially the ones created specifically for one purpose (for example look at supercomputers, sonm, golem, xel and rlc)

[tambakikan]

actually if we want to invest with altcoin or bitcoin sell and hold it is necessary to do. at this time if you want to invest with altcoin pretty good, not just investing bitcoin try altcoin also good.

[Risunkof]

If these are good coins, then it is better to hold them.  If not, then I see no reason to hold them.  Better immediately sell.

[deean_3one]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It is true. The altcoin price depends heavily on bitcoin. If bitcoin falls then the altcoin price will be much lower, but if bitcoin rises altcoin prices will follow but can not boost bitcoin. Holding bitcoin will be more profitable.

[withche.07]

It depends on your investing personality. Bitcoin rises after good news, altcoins rise after great rumors about development. Most altcoins have underdeveloped/unfinished codes so potential is higher with investing.

[Meraki]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It is true, most of altcoin rely on the price of bitcoin, but still not all the people can afford to buy a single bitcoin but it is a different story for altcoins you can purchase many even though you're not releasing thousands of dollars. And also take note not all altcoins rely on bitcoin there are also circumstances that Altcoin increase even though bitcoin is not increasing its price.

[bastian466]

yes the conversation is indeed better to hold BTC because all altcoin still follow btc but i this year tried to hold Ethereum and do sales if there is free time

[Market-desi]

withhold or not altcoin that we have. it depends on the circumstances of the situation merket gan. if I had an altcoin I would have kept it. because now the price is already improving. but according to the news I read .in June the altcoin price is likely to be much more expensive when compared to the current price ..

[0t3p0t]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

For late comers and to those who wants a cheaper investment Altcoin is the best choice but when it come to safety and easy to recover when in red days I'll go for those that are listed as top 15 on the coinmarketcap. Bitcoin is most likely be the choice most especially if crypto is just our only source of income just like me. I find Altcoins good because they are way cheaper than Bitcoin but we also accept the fact that some Altcoins are not accepted especially on our local exchangers. Here in my country Only Bitcoin and Ethereum are accepted or we are able to convert it to our fiat currency without hassle or even buy prepaid loads, pay bills and shop online.

[Herbys]

Of course, all currencies depend on bitcoin, if it falls - everything will fall. Sometimes, of course, there is a currency that, on the contrary, imitates, but it is very difficult to guess.

[Klausi]

Of course, all currencies depend on bitcoin, if it falls - everything will fall. Sometimes, of course, there is a currency that, on the contrary, imitates, but it is very difficult to guess.

For me it's always good to hold alt coins and bitcoin because it will help it rise its value. It's one way of helping bitcoin because it's rare, the lesser the number of bitcoin counts the more its price will rise. It's now your choice which altcoins to be hold or sell, no one knows what will be the future of alt coins even bitcoin. So it's all up to you wether to sell or hold or coins.

[AicecreaME]

I think only 2% of all altcoins grew up in the proportion altcoin/btc. I think you must hold some of them for get more profit than in bitcoin. In my portfolio one, two stable altcoins and bitcoins.

It depends on the situation of the altcoins that we are holding, that is why it is important if we are always going to be updated on every updates of the developers of the altcoins that we are holding for us to know if they are going to make it pump or dump. Holding altcoins is not that bad, but holding too long will lead you to some consequences like losing profits than earning some.

You have to be wise on how you are managing your altcoins, especially if the altcoins that we have does have a good project, meaning they are good to hold in the long run.

[Llyrmyst]

Yes we should hold altcoins and wait for its value to increase and many opportubities to come and then sell it or invest it. It will come back to you doubled or maybe more. Patience is the key

[aiza2007]

altcoins that we are holding for us to know if they are going to make it pump or dump. Holding altcoin.

[Johnnywelsh]

I held some of my altcoins for about 9 months and some have barely moved. It's not just about holding them it's about monitoring the price and selling at the right time. Set yourself a limit and sell as soon as it reaches that threshold. If I'd sold everything in December I'd have 4x easily.

In the end I ended up doubling which is still good but greed kind of sucks like that!

[batang_bitcoin]

It's why majority are holding bitcoin and I don't also know what lies in the minds of altcoin holders.

They may look bitcoin as something expensive so instead of buying it, they would rather take the risk and start loving altcoin instead.

[Azima85]

I actually prefer holding alts to BTC. However, I track my portfolio in BTC value. The thing with alts is that during the rise of the market you will gain more than with just holding BTC so it's better..but the risk is that during the fall you also lose more than just holding BTC so it's riskier. I don't hold a lot of the top alts however I just trade them, because I feel their room of growth is a bit limited unless something extraordinary happens. I try to search for low marketcaps with potential of the most growth to hold. I'd say one has to set a certain part of portfolio for trading major alts, and another for holding low marketcap coins and a part in btc for opportunities.

[Cynooza]

I don't think all altcoins are suitable for holding. I bought some alts just because they were had a great hype potential and were acclaimed by Reddit users. When I buy something for holding, I truly believe in the project and want it to come true.

[IVEXO]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I think it is better to hodl altcoins
And hodl our profits in fiat; this way we get to secure our profits

Hodling altcoin is best but you need to monitor the market closely so you can be aware when there’s a pump and you are available to pick your profit at the most crucial time

[QueenW]

I think that you need not only to keep your crypto-currencies, but even to buy a cave, while the market is in a drawdown. The growth potential in this sphere is huge! And remember, you need to buy when all the others are selling)

[gurupauts]

I think if you want to get a profit then you have to hold it and altcoin will definitely have a higher price again when bitcoin prices will also increase, so you should hold and be patient

[alimarh]

Yeah for sure, it is very good to hold some altcoins, the good altcoins, you also need to have some patience then when the price moons, you will be sure to be made already so always hold your good coins, don't sell too quick.

[Julunguul]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes, that was the negative side to HOLD altcoin, but if we didn't HOLD any alts we still didn't get profit from any coin right ? That's why cryptocurrencies trading is high-risk investment. Just HOLD on altcoins that you think it has the potency to grow up, or just make a target on it.

[Zooplus]

I think if you want to get a profit then you have to hold it and altcoin will definitely have a higher price again when bitcoin prices will also increase, so you should hold and be patient

It's more profitable to hold them both,bitcoins and altcoins because they will surely grow in time.I believe there are really some good potential altcoins out there,we just have to be more cautious in choosing which coin to invest so that we will not waste our time in holding shitcoins,just those real potential coins.

[ThomasV80]

in my opinion, the decision to hold bitcoin or altcoin depends on the project. especially altcoin, the development of a project of altcoin greatly affects the value of the altcoin of the project. so, traders typically choose altcoin with projects that have good development programs and solid cooperation.

[Quincy01]

In my own opinion about this question, I think it is wise to hold altcoins despite the fact that altcoins rely mainly on Bitcoin, It should be held as well besides altcoins can add a huge value to your income and increase your profit whenever there is an increase or change in the price raise. In as much as the cryptocurrency is involved, one will always need to have altcoins to make the system keep running while there is a standstill or deep in Bitcoin.

[Jonsnowstark]

There are some altcoins are really profitable to hodl for long term not just only bitcoin but most altcoins are depending on bitcoin's price. Some of altcoins have good potential that's what people are hodling their coins but you have to be wise enough on how to manage your altcoins or else you will lose some of it.

[ApemQ]

yes HOLD is the best choice for now, when you HOLD your crypto then you have patience, for patience is the key to success in the world of crypto, especially nowadays that almost all crypto experience a very low price decline.

[rodel caling]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Holding bitcoin is true bright idea's to make earning in the future for long term hold of course people first choice to invest into bitcoin as number one strong digotal crypto currency , but most of the people holding both as investment because people believe both are profitable and both are useful for the crypto trade to earn profits.

[Badhuamin]

for myself I still hold the Altcoin that I have, I will hold it in time tang long enough because this year the development of crypto is very slow and not as stable, hoping to be back setabil in the coming year.

[childish]

probably 5-10 that are usable for a specific reason

I'd say it's even less than that.  Bitcoin itself barely gets used for anything that resembles real commerce.

ETH?  Never owned it, and I'm not sure what it's good for other than ICOs
LTC?   It's always been silver to bitcoin's gold, but does anyone really spend it?  Doubt it.
DOGE?  Nope.  Nobody spends it and very few places take it, and you can't earn it.

And there are a whole bunch of similar coins of varying popularity.  What they all have in common is that people buy and sell them for the sake of doing so, and they serve no economic purpose.

No, you don't need to hold altcoins unless you want to be one of the cool kids.

with Altcoin's ability to continue to grow rapidly when we hold it would be great for the future to be much better in the future. because for the future the coin can be affected by the current development of coins. such as supporting him holding a coin will be able to improve the development of existing coins.

[IGNation]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Probably, since bitcoin is the most used cryptocurrency it is the one we use to buy altcoins it is more likely to affect the price of altcoins but it doesn't mean that it is better holding btc than altcoins, e.g. there will be a high pump on a certain coin and bitcoin is stable for this reason you take advantage of holding an altcoin rather than bitcoin.

[izay]

Holding bitcoin or any altcoins is not a must. Its up to you if you want to hold them. Some got lucky who buy altcoins in its lowest price and hold it for a year and got profited a lot. Engaging in crypto industry is really risky and unpredictable. But holding bitcoin is good. Bitcoin price goes up and down and on it if you know some trading techniques you will gain.

[hadveach]

I do not agree with his opinion, because in fact, in the crypto market there are still some altcoins that have good growth and are not dependent on bitcoin.

so, i think hold bitcoin and hold some altcoin that is not dependent on bitcoin, like odem, ADA, and also INS is good choice.

[$$$sparkles$$$]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Altcoins have far more potential for growth in a shorter time compared to BTC. Meaning, earning double or more of our investment in altcoins is more possible period than it is with BTC. BTC is a sure thing. But you will need some patience if you wanna earn a reasonable profit because of its high price. Choose your alts wisely and you won't be sorry.

[orarider]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Why do you think not to hold altcoin? According to information I learned, the altcoin began to be valuable. They are recovering while the bitcoins are slowly falling. The altcoin such as HIRE, ZCL, BRD, NEO and GAS are interested.

[Majharul Saiif]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes,I'm also doing this.The current price is hopeless for crypto holders.So hold is better now.Not only Btc but also altcoins need to hold.

[Gimblaz]

it depends on the coin you invested when the position has been gotten for why not sell it or the situation is otherwise better do not try to sell your coin loss

[zmkriel]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It maybe much ideal to hold bitcoin for long term but there are also altcoins that are also good for long term investments like ethereum, litecoin and monero. The rest maybe promising at first but cannot survive for a long run. And altcoins are much cheaper than bitcoin just be extra careful on what altcoin you are buying to.

[Oldman53]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

You should hold % in BTC from ur total portfolio for sure. Why ppl holding alts? Sometimes alts can give u more profit than BTC, but its very very risky.

[jackhdt]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I agree with the comments above because if we keep altcoin long-term, we will face a double hole. Most of altcoins are affected by bitcoin. If keep altcoin the decline would be greater than keeping bitcoin. So if we invest long - term , we should keep bitcoin

[thetruth123123]

In my opinion it depends on the time that you want to hold them, bitcoin is good to hold for years and some of the altcoins are good to hold for half year and then sell.

[saadat6868]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

This is one of the most secure investment to hold your funds into Bitcoin. So if you believe in that, you can always go for it. But also, for those who don't believe in Bitcoin you can diversifie your investments

[Lala Sravan]

Yes you need to told your Altcoin, do you want to sell them on loss. Presently cryptocurrency market going Red. This is the time to buy not to sell.

[Pa1n]

Holding is only solution for me. I cant sell anything. Look at the prices. We are in loss situation already. Good luck to everyone.

[pawanjain]

Well I wold say that don't believe what other people say. I would suggest you to do what you want and not to follow somebody else.
If you think Bitcoin is a better investment than any altcoins then invest in it and if you altcoins give out better returns than Bitcoin then you should definitely invest in altcoins. The crypto market is volatile , this results in various situations where BTC goes up and altcoins goes down and vice versa and sometimes both goes in same direction. So you should only in the coins you believe will give you better returns. My potential coins are BTC,  ETH and EOS.

[Classica35]

Some altcoins are just exceptional, that no matter how btc falls, they may not fall alongside btc. They seems to be independent of the fall of btc. An example of such coin is MTC. There are some others that also behave the same way. I hold altcoins and i have benefitted from it.

[jc89]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Bitcoin is the greatest coin. Not only it is the first of its kind, high profitability, but it has most of people's support. So it is better to hold Bitcoin than any other coin. However, diversification is a must for a great investor. You must never place all your eggs in a single basket so that whatever happens you have backup. People will never force you to hold altcoins nor Bitcoin. It will be your decision. Regardless of what you hold, just be sure that you hold coin or token that will give you your desired gains.

[credobit]

I sell a token when I see that the sale price is much more than the price for ICO. Also I thought that Bitcoin is a reliable and long-term investment but its rate in the last time fell to 6000.

[kworrom]

Well, of course) My opinion is that we have to use any opportunities to earn money. And no matter what crypto currency tops your wallet) That's the truth of life.

[wirosableng]

Some altcoins are just exceptional, that no matter how btc falls, they may not fall alongside btc. They seems to be independent of the fall of btc. An example of such coin is MTC. There are some others that also behave the same way. I hold altcoins and i have benefitted from it.

if you want to hold some altcoin is okay,
but there are some risks that you will face later,
believe me bitcoin will improve

[Vova.vova]

Hi guys!I have found one  of the most promising projects of 2018 called Cryptics! I'm 100% in his success! Don't miss the opportunity to be here,especially now is only the beginning of a great journey! Moreover, they will have a giveaway and A SUPER PRIZE – Lamborghini Huracan!!!What do you think about this? Check it out!

[liqidoxgen]

With any investment, it is important to diversify.

[asdn192zhhhh]

withhold or not altcoin that we have. it depends on the circumstances of the situation merket gan. if I had an altcoin I would have kept it. because now the price is already improving. but according to the news I read .in June the altcoin price is likely to be much more expensive when compared to the current price ..

[katiecbell]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

According to me, diversifying your investment is the best thing to do in current market situation. It’s good to keep 40% of your investment in bitcoin and divide the rest 60% into number of altcoins. Investing in a single coin can prove risky and you might experience severe loss.

Bitcoin is less volatile when compared to altcoins, but in terms of profit, altcoins can give much more profit than BTC, therefore having both in your portfolio is recommended.

[Freddy63]

You have to tae decision by yourself. BTC is more stable , but with alts you can gain more as it more volatile.
Buy and hold what is more appropriate to your strategy

[sergocop]

Good day to all. Everyone thinks differently, but I'd rather keep altcoyins. So it is more profitable. Buy less popular tokens and leave for 3-4 years on your wallet. Then it remains to go to the purse and rejoice. Good luck everyone

[BitcoVast]

but there are some altcoins that are against BTC prices. if still not get profit we must hold altcoin to get profit

[sapnu]

if you someone who likes to just invest, bitcoin will be the king today and almost in the future. So throw your money at alts riskier than BTC. But if you someone who wants to get more BTC, you should trading ALTS. I mean alts by design is to make more BTC. well, dyor and this not an investment advice.

It actually depends on the token holder if he or she really wants to sell it. If the holder is already satisfied what he will get when he sell it. But as of now the market are down so it means that all tokens are dumping so all of token holders should hold and hold for a long time as the market recovers.

[haroldtee]

Good day to all. Everyone thinks differently, but I'd rather keep altcoyins. So it is more profitable. Buy less popular tokens and leave for 3-4 years on your wallet. Then it remains to go to the purse and rejoice. Good luck everyone

It is obvious almost everyone in this space are busy looking for profit and not what some of the coins have to offer. It is not a bad thing anyway, since that is actually the essence of investment anyway. Some altcoins can be worth holding based on their prospect and how valuable they can be based on the product that backs them and the demand for such product, but not altcoin is worth holding anyway. Altcoins are even more volatile than bitcoin and most of them are pretty much pump and dump until some of them can stand on their own.

First of all it’s nit proven fact that BTC and Altcoins are connected to each other. So stop mixing up things over that fact and you can see everything getting easier for you. Well, there is another fact whether you hold btc or alts all of them will go upwards one day and thus will profit you. I think holding is just surprising art which works all the time. I’m great believer of this fact and so I will prefer to suggest you that you hold both of them if possible. ;-)

Only good projects can show you good growth and you can be happy with not selling their tokens. In the situation with the market, which we see now, one must be cautious and choose only high-quality projects. I would advise everyone to look at the EON project and I have several reasons for this. One of the most important reasons is an experienced team and getting the first investment before launching the project. Now most of the work is carried out with the promotion of their ideas and this is very important. They have an idea to move to the EOS blockchain and use it to solve their problems, and this is the best way to build a large and truly global platform for developers and players in today's realities. The industry is developing and being ahead of this industry thanks to the best technologies - perhaps this is the goal of the EON team, and now I'm very glad that the crypto-economy gives the opportunity to develop young projects and make quality products and that's how it will be with the EON. I am sure that their technical part will be made at the highest level

[bitcok]

you can also save altcoin, but you have to see first how the development of the project, so you can decide which altcoin good you save

[Freezingel]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I choose to hold more alts rather than bitcoin because i think bitcoin is only useful as store of value, compared to alts which has many uses according to their project and that make them more likely to go up in value. Also in the future there will be more usd pairing so btc movement won't affect alts too much.

[Greed Dev]

I think yes. Sometimes altcoin is very important and altcoin is the future of the crypto market. In the near future, I will sell my entire bitcoin and buy some potential altcoin

[AntonioKurandi]

As for me cryptocurrency is a new digital era. Blockchain technology gives the possibility to instantly transfer your funds without intermediaries and commissions. There are a lot of interesting projects that you can see at global network, but my favorite is Kelvin Blockchain. Kelvin Blockchain is very flexible and adaptive, which makes it a perfect choice for implementation of the new blockchain projects and platforms.

[linkybit]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Everyone has his/her own preferences, I would like to hold both bitcoin and altcoins, there are some really good altcoins which really worth to hold for a long time, like Ethereum, NEO, and LTC are few examples.

[kzr_sk]

Almost 90% of the alts' price varies with BTC, there are certain technical analysis that fits on the price prediction, but what really matters for alts is the news. If you are holding alts, keep calm for the BTC to rise and for the appropriate news to hit on cloud.

[hydrococo]

For now it is best we do need time to hodl. Moreover, the condition of the market is also being very down. It would be very risky if we sell. Just be patient until the price of the altcoin improved. Then the time was right to sell.

[Zanuar Erik]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

yes that's the basic understanding of the world of cryptocurrencies. it's good you also consider altcoin like ETH, so far ETH has good value and ability to compete in the market even now ETH many in use, you must know to invest in need understanding about a place that will be in use for your investment and purchasing, can give profit in the future.

[rizkyhiw]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

That's true, if btc falls then altcoin also experience the same thing. Depending on what you believe, altcoin is a coin that is still in the developing stage, and where if alt continues to grow then the price will be much higher than the previous price. Indeed not everyone believes altcoin, but I think some altcoin is very important to hold.

[Caladonian]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Depending on what you believe, altcoin is a coin that is still in the developing stage, and where if alt continues to grow then the price will be much higher than the previous price. Indeed not everyone believes altcoin, but I think some altcoin is very important to hold.

The idea is to find those quality alts who can bring real usage to any industry from the market, if you will be able to hold those coins then it can bring good value to your investment, bitcoin is still the main basis of alts value so to understand the flow, each time bitcoin falls the value of alts will be affected as it was used to be based with bitcoin, sooner or later when the crypto market already been established and be adopt by end users that will be the time for alts to move away from btc and create its own legacy.

[28days_ever]

Dependence on the price of bitcoin now exists, but judge for yourself what bitcoin can give you, and what about 100 different in their technology alt. Probably still a rich choice should outweigh the outdated, but competently holding its position the reference.

[gunhell16]

I am 100 percent sure that we need to hold alternative coins.
but you need to be careful and make sure that you will be picky.
especially just keep coins with a high potential and great team.

[torch2121]

As for me holding altcoin has a biggest return investment. For me base on the record altcoin can still give you more than 500% return profit. Even BTC has fall. This is effective for people whose goal is long term goal.

[3kpk3]

That depends on you completely op. You need to decide since you are talking about your funds. HODLING and selling quickly are both effective strategies, but selling at the right moment is another important factor which many people ignore. I generally prefer to HODL all my coins and tokens for the long term due to the low stress involved and since I don't like looking at the market everyday. Do your research op.

[Russlenat]

I have many altcoins before that i sell for bitcoin but most of my earnings are because of altcoins and not bitcoin, i can say is that altcoins is also holding important role in crypto market with a lot of potential that can give us more income than bitcoin.

[StephenieDuong]

I think we should hold bitcoin with 50% funds and other 50% split between 2-5 altcoins. This is the best ways to get maximum profit with backup plan to sercue yours fund. Bitcoin may have no good technology than many others altcoins, but i think it will keep grow in the future.

[Ostonian]

It is possible to distinguish units of altcoins, which should be kept in the long term. But it is desirable to break investments into several parts, to invest something in bitcoin, the rest to altcoins.

[triasel]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Altcoin is quite high risk, but if we can choose altcoin correctly then we can get a great profit. Utilizing the action of dump and pump can make us gain profit, it is actually more to a strategy because with a good strategy then we will be able to produce something satisfactory.

i prefer to saving bitcoin than altcoins. because altcoins falling down lately really the price of altcoins following bitcoin price
so you alright saving bitcoin better than saving altcoins

[smyslov]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Everybody here is looking for the next big thing like what early investors of Bitcoin and Ethereum, and you can only have that if you are investing in the next big thing in the cryptocurrency but the big question is finding the next big thing.

[camelson]

so you alright saving bitcoin better than saving altcoins

What if you saved both bitcoin and altcoins. Bitcoin is down, alts are also down, when price of bitcoin increases, altcoins price will also increases ans you can double you profit.

[boller]

If we notice that the coins have promising concept and can attract the investors to buy in the next days, I think that It is still worthy to hold the coins. But, we must analyze the market and the progress of the coins. I'm still holding my altcoins although the price is now very dropped. So, it will depend on the coins.

[rchstr]

altcoins have high risk but high reward. If you really do your own due dilligence in the coin you want to invest, you can lessen the risk of your investment. But if you want to have a good coin to hold just stick with bitcoin or ethereum as it is low risk but also neutral of having high and low reward.

[chocolaty]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It is okay to hold altcoins as well. Several assets means there will be a greater profit waiting for you when the bull market arrives. There are also profitable altcoins. If you want to play safe, go for those reputable ones. You don't have to stick into a single cryptocurrency. You can widen your portfolio by adding altcoins. This is just my opinion. The final decision is still yours.

[eann014]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It depends on what altcoin should you invest. Bitcoin is really the father of all coins, but if you think that there is an altcoin that has a potential to make you a profit then go for altcoin, there is nothing wrong on holding also an altcoin.

[parlerm]

Yeah, atleast it's better than just give up and sell your coin. Atleast there is some hope that price will going up. Keep strong and patience to get what you want.

[slashz9]

not altogether, there are some alt that did rise even though the value of btc dropped by then, from my experience in crypto world, 1 altcoin is rising very significantly in 1 month, it up to 6400%. imagine you can make that much profit only if you choose the right altcoin.

[bagikoin]

hold your bitcoin or altcoin I think its potential is almost the same. Indeed altcoin right to follow every movement of the bitcoin. but the rise and development of the altcoin many of the bitcoin and this babe when missed. so hold the both of them I think the better.

[Rtalk]

I agree that all altcoins correlate to bitcoin.Bitcoin sets the direction of movement of the rest of the coins.Bitcoin is the least volatile and is more likely to keep and multiply your investment.

[diguyo]

Well of course you don't need to, but do you want to?

I've said this many times before - I don't think bitcoin is the long-term future of cryptos and that it will be one of these 'alt' coins that will achieve the most success. The problem is identifying which project! A lot of people hold alts for trading, big growth potential...a lot hold just to diversify their portfolio. It's up to you, but I personally think that it's a safer bet to diversify....even if the alt market doesn't look great at the moment.

[Burogh]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Some altcoin are good to hold because that altcoin have good project and real product. My investment beside bitcoin is RavenCoin. Its good coin with good developers and i think ravencoin price will rising.
I think investing on altcoin is good for alternative after bitcoin, its usefull to minimizing our risk on market because sometimes altcoin have good movement

[Gifolote]

I agree that the price of altcoins depends on the price of bitcoin. and I prefer to invest my money in new altcoins because I think they can give a good profit.

[kostepanych2]

Unfortunately, I really need to hold altcoins now, because I don't want to sell them for such low prices 

[kelincrad]

According to the information I learned, altcoin has become valuable. They recover while bitcoins are slowly falling. Altcoin such as rental, ZCL, DR, NEO and gas are interested.

[tng811]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

The reason for holding altcoins is profit. Altcoins will bring many times more profit than bitcoin does, even though they also come with more risks. If you have a lot of money and want a safe bet, then perhaps bitcoin is for you.

[staker$]

The entire Altcoins mostly are dependent upon Bitcoin's price movements except for the very few coins. Holding Bitcoin is good only up to the amount of money that you can afford to lose considering the volatile nature of it. I don't personally hold it longer but trade it for gains either in the red or in the green market. But holding favorite Altcoins I still do, I even mine them or work to collect some of them, while I am hopeful of its rise in the future but I hodle not primarily of profit but for fun. If I would like to gain, I would have to trade and earn small rather than waiting for an unpredictable rally.

[hajimasan]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Actually there are lots of factors works in this field , for exmaple a usual thing that we can see that when the price of bitcoin will get up then in that case price of the altcoins get down and vice versa .
But in the present time it usually not happened because many whales are creating illusion of the dump of bitcoin market as well as of altcoins market and that cateye fear in the mind of every type of the traders and that leads into mentilty that how they can trade if there is not a usual thing happening , so they get into panic and few of them left such type software the work ( trading and investment in new new coin asset ) .
So here we should remain always strong with our holding and never get into any type of fud fear  , and become a successful trader by own analysis of the cryptocurrency market .

[efodix]

If you are an investor and believe into market, you should hold your coins and tokens. But if you have lost your confidence and want your money back - sell it and let other people make profits in the future 

[Ian Dave]

Yes, for me we need to hold that altcoins because as soon or in the right time we can sure that they will have a high price so that we can get a big profit. You need to also check if that coin is worth for your patience.

[eriwis]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Indeed there may be a correlation, at least for now, or in a downward trend like this.
But of course the percentage, there will be differences, especially on Altcoin with market capitalization is still quite small.

[mrphilippine]

Yes I believe alternative coins have more potential than bitcoin. Based on my experience there are many potential alternative coins which you can choose to invest on and can have 10x 100x multiplier at the end if you are really good during the ICO phase.

[fakegurutu]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

At this very moment of time, buy and hold bitcoin and sell  those altcoins you have there if you can profit from it, if you cant then hold until the market goes green again or if what they say is true about bull run this year.

[zaratustraa]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I think that the strategy of the holding of altcoins is justified not in all situations ... Personally, I only hold coins of some projects that have collected HARDCAP and they have great potential.

[earnestoshodi]

You can hold altcoins if you the tokens have potential value appreciation and a good team to promote it .the risks to altcoins are higher, so is the reward

[putrisa]

yes of course all should require to hold altcoin because if you do not withstand altcoin you may not be able to get the maximum benefit and it should be noted that altcoin has a very high risk to fall.

[franciscoDC]

But what if its necessary to use ,what do you think? or else you have enough knowledge about what you are going to do with your token,sometimes you need to make a research to know more about what would going to do with your holdings.

[SuperP]

I'm not sure that we have to invest for a long time in little-known and risky altcoins because now the main coins are also falling in which people invest much more than in the altcoins 

[Starving_Marvin]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Bitcoin is good also, but you dont need to focus your Investments strictly to the one particular coin, you can always buy 4, 5, 10 of them, and by doing that you would be more likely to catch the pump.

[mahvia]

Short answer is yes and longer one is YEES
Altcoins have different values and cant be looked at as we used to do (alternative coins..)

[bitgolden]

I have only been in the crypto for a few months, during which time I see that bitcoin is still an indicator and can affects other alt, whether it will go up or down. I am also not good at researching and choosing an investment, therefore I only hold the bitcoin and alt popular (top 10 alt in cmc).

Though I have knowledge in the market and I do research, I also prefer investing in just BTC and top altcoins. I am more firm about investing in well established coins rather than newly added coins.

Bitcoin affects most of the altcoins, but there are some altcoins that show growth when bitcoin dumps and some show decrease in price when bitcoin pumps. Therefore I prefer investing in BTC and some top altcoins and holding for long term to ensure profit and investment security.

[lovenlifelarge]

I am holding some altcoins which has high volume of trades. why? incase that it will have some good increase by any chance, a good day trade can be done easily. shorting and hodling should be well prepared everyday, I dont like missing good opportunity.

[Thefrolly]

You won't be able to get the same returns with Bitcoin that you will get with altcoins. Bitcoin has grown so much that moving its prices isn't easy and you won't get the same x10-20 returns like you used to get earlier. For that you will have to invest in alt coins as they are still at low market cap and can be moved easily.

[balrog]

The only reason to hold altcoins is to earn more money . Just compare capitalisation of bitcoivs any altcoin and you'l see that amount of money needed for a +100% pump is incalculable . Having 100 btc you can pump most part of altcoins to x2-x10 , that's why altcoin investment could bevery profitable .

[Tarepa]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Some people keep altcoins waiting they rise their value, other sells it inmediatelly thinkin their value is going to fall, it is depends of the altcoin too, you can keep perfectly ETH, DODGE or LITE apart than BTC perfectly

[tantegope00l]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It's almost the same trend, but that's because you probably only see from top20 marketcap. While innovative projects with better platforms are certainly worth supporting, because if all depends on Bitcoin, it will require enormous market capitalization to grow the portfolio, even just on Bitcoin.

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I do not believe it will continue that way. Bitcoin market capitalization is huge, and we need Altcoin to bring this industry to life.
Some new projects are really created for the long term, and it certainly starts from scratch.

[4garret]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Maybe we should look at it, or at least imagine how all Altcoin, especially the famous Altcoin get support. Of course we need Altcoin, because if not, then Bitcoin will not be more interesting from now on. And by the way, by percentage growth, I even bet Ripple over Bitcoin for the next 3-5 years.

[ukstar]

If your altcoin price is low at the moment, you can hold it and wait for the time when the price will rise up. Then you can earn a big profit from it. But if the price is profitable you can invest. I would prefer to hold some tokens to earn big profit. Holding your coins is a work of real patients.You must do it if you want to make a great amount of real profit.

[Zack Lee]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I think it is because I know now that altcoin prices have decreased and so now I think now is the right time to hold altcoin and wait for all the new stable returns I sell my altcoin and can benefit, otherwise I will not get what's what

[dirgayeah]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

some people have a faith with altcoin which they believe. because it have a good concept and strong community. and with this condition market right now , the safest way to survive are just Hold your asset. because FUD are still exist on this years.

[FreddySelvig]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

The altcoins have a much higher volatility, although they depend on Bitcoin. Bitcoin last year brought x17, at the same time Ethereum gave its investors x100-200. So think, is it worth holding altcoins or not

[Stioned1987]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

As for me retaining altcoin has a biggest return investment. For me base at the file altcoin can still come up with more than 500% go back income. Even BTC has fall. that is powerful for people whose aim is long term goal.

[CriptoNata]

Indeed, the market is not in a better position now. Therefore, it makes no sense to sell coins, because soon there will be a large increase

[Chacon994]

Alt  is very Good Investment, so it is good to hold

altcoin has the future. A lot of altcoins can develop like bitcoin, and now I'm buying a lot of altcoins, I hope that in the future all the altcoin that I have bought is of high value

[futureofeth]

With the current situation of the market people who bought the coin at a high price should wait and hold the coin until the price of coins starts increasing. There are many people who bought the altcoin at the high price and which they cannot sell them at the current value. So it is good to hold the coin until the market starts recovering.

[txsignatoire]

Now the market is so big volatility that I would definitely not sell. If you have money, on the contrary you can buy a little more, and wait for growth. Someday it will happen anyway.

[jonatuzc]

From the thousands of coins and tokens that exists, probably 5-10 that are usable for a specific reason and no, CoinMarketCap is not an indicator of how useful a coin is. For example, Bitcoin is a must to hold while BitcoinCash is simply a shitty fork regardless of its current price. Ripple is centralized and It's unlikely to go anywhere in the near future and so on..

True. There are very few coins in the market that hold real world applications and solve real world problems. Most of the coins in the market serve the same purpose and aren’t unique. But there are some coins such as NEO, ONT, XRP, IOTA, etc that hold some great technologies and solve real world problems.

XRP solves banking problem by providing speedy transactions with less fees, ONT aims at linking real world information to blockchain technology to store it and provide security and privacy and so on.

[GFE]

Holding for long term is one of the best strategies to get big profit. Personally I'm holding NEO 1 year and for this time its price was increased x150 times (now x30-x50)

[Mpamaegbu]

Not hodling altcoins in addition to bitcoin is analogous to taking one's meal without taking water to push it down. That's the way I see this. Yes, quite alright altcoins rely on bitcoin to push or recline on price. But that doesn't mean one can't hit it big just hodling altcoins. Most altcoins have been known to have even given more dividends than Bitcoin.

[Starving_Marvin]

 I am persuaded that all the alternative cryptocurrencies are different, so definitely there are some that would be worthy of holding, and also there are some that would be non worthy.

[haidangtp]

I think you should hold both. Altcoin also has the potential to profit us if we know the right choice. Bitcoin is still a top priority.

[wulian18]

If you do not hold, then you will always be a small person. There will be no big rewards. This is a lot of people's experience, and most people would say so. So listen to everyone.

[Akiko]

I am persuaded that all the alternative cryptocurrencies are different, so definitely there are some that would be worthy of holding, and also there are some that would be non worthy.

All altcoins are have differences, such as their platforms giving help to others by blockchain technology.
There are many altcoins in crypto world and yes there are worthy coin and some of them would be non worthy.

[fileo]

Yes. Holding the altcoins is one of our strategy to cultivate the desires profit when the price goes up. Without holding strategy we cannot go so far to achieve the success. To hold is part of our living in crypto.

[SirLancelot]

if you someone who likes to just invest, bitcoin will be the king today and almost in the future. So throw your money at alts riskier than BTC. But if you someone who wants to get more BTC, you should trading ALTS. I mean alts by design is to make more BTC. well, dyor and this not an investment advice.

Trading in altcoins to gather more BTC is indeed a good advice and many of the traders in the market do the same. They just focus on gathering more BTC rather than seeing how much fiat money they are accumulating or losing.

Trading in altcoins can prove quite beneficiary if you are patient and have good knowledge of the market as altcoins are more volatile and can multiply your investment many times.

A good knowledge indeed is a must when trading with altcoins since there are some of them are there for one time pump and die roughly, and there are other's who's potential has been diminished and been dump due to some unexpected events. We need to be more cautious and be informative always so that trading with alts will not be miserable on us.

[jessd7]

There are good altcoins out there and holding some with good project and road map will certainly give you profit in the long run. Although, you should hold most of the top cryptocurrencies.

[tuquyen44]

altcoins have high risk but high reward. If you really do your own due dilligence in the coin you want to invest, you can lessen the risk of your investment.

if can give a recommendation too there's one coin too we had forgot. that's call Credits (CS). they also have a great's technology. will their fast transaction 1 Million Transaction/Second (TPS , I really sure this become a massive technology invasion on cryptocurrency. they already do a pre realease test and it have a 480k TPS. so this one must be worth for considering

[cryptoblue77]

I think we should hold well-known altcoins, they are relatively safe to hold for long-term and they have got the potential to grow in future, but don't hold shitcoins in the hope of getting huge profit.

It is very profitable to keep the altcoins while on a rising market but keeping  altcoins in a falling market can cause more losses than Bitcoin. Choosing good altcoin and keeping it is the investor's personal preference. Personally i usually keep altcoins at 30%  of my bag.

[paramex]

in my mind, if you invest you are free to choose bitcoin and altcoin because it will be worth. I will not decide that a good coin or a coin is not good, it just makes me stupid. But what makes me strange is, someone who comes and invests in cryptocurrency they just choose bitcoin just for investment, they are just altcoin only for the investment I mean they do not choose bitcoin. Because I think bitcoin is king today and almost in the future. so unfortunately if not invest in it.

[dianikusuma]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

the statement that he pointed out there is indeed a point. but keep in mind that the development of altcoin also sometimes can exceed the bitcoin in the results. therefore withstand bitcoin is an advantage besides holding your bitcoin. though not as powerful as bitcoin but for results cannot be doubted because many altcoins which also has the same potential to be great.

[Rastafarian]

Upon the numerous altcoins I use to get from my campaigns, I try to hold all because of the market situation at hand. For me, I like to do massive investment in crypto currency and I like to prioritize some alts to other, not forgetting bitcoin. I only choose alts that I am confident in and will always trade with them. 

[suraniawan]

If I were to agree with the opinions of your friends. Indeed in crypto, we also need time to rest first with hodl. Especially if seen market conditions that are currently does not support. then I think the best option is hodl.

[Brivwe]

Alt  is very Good Investment, so it is good to hold

I think yes we have to properly hold altcoin because now the price of altcoin is still declining and still have not returned because by buying altcoin you will get a low price because we have to be patient waiting for altcoin price to return

[adamreb]

If we talk about my situation, now altcoins bring a really good return. Yes, there is a correction on the market, but this is not a reason to sell coins, but an incentive to buy them at a more attractive price.

[jamesllaneta]

because bitcoin is the best coin ever because  investment you are free to choose bitcoin and altcoin because that will be worth. I'm not going to decide that this good coin or that coin is not good, it just makes me a fool. But that make me a strange is, someone who come and investing in cryptocurrency they just choose bitcoin only for an investment, they just altcoin only for an investment I mean they didn't choose bitcoin.

[Jazvebtc18]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

[Jazvebtc18]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

It depends on the situation. Holding altcoins  is you choice. If you can see that the crypto market today is not good and the price is very low then that's the good time to hold you altcoins. Don't rash in selling your coins. Always remember that you invest to get profit not to lose it.

[popelene1]

Hold the promissing ones created for good purpose and use case, the one that already have great and trusted community

[mimarob]

Here you will not guess when it is better to hold, and when to sell, so I hold, so that later I do not regret that I sold it.

[valessiobrito]

I buy altcoins because I believe in what these new coins may do in the future. Just like the internet, we had improvements and new competitors in the market.
This stuff is early and we have no idea really what things will look like when we start seeing adoption, at the moment all these altcoins are based on potential

[teeshe]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

The person is absolutely right as a fall in BTC results in a drastic fall in Altcoins.
However, it is a two side of a coin. A rise in BTC will also results in a drastic rise in Altcoins. So it is left to you to pick your choice according to your risk appetite.

[Yokonaumiyaki000]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Beginning to think what your friend told you is true. I think altcoins are not really worth the hodl specially those altcoins which are not exceptionally outstanding. I think altcoins that you should hodl are those altcoins with a long term great potential, since most of them now are just exceptional at the start then starts to drop after quite some time.

[Sandra999]

Yeah for sure, it is very good to hold some altcoins, the good altcoins, you also need to have some patience then when the price moons, you will be sure to be made already so always hold your good coins, don't sell too quick.

[dusty_daniel]

All altcoins really depend on the movement of Bitcoin’s price. But after Bitcoin finds its support zone and people accumulate it, all altcoins will start growing in sequence. It is one of the best ways to take Bitcoin away from people and give Shitcoins to them.

[Matimtim]

I think depends on what coins you are trying to hold, if you think there is the possibility that someday the price of those coins will rise, then its better to hold it, until the price reach what you are expecting.

Bitcoin is the back bone of  crypto world that is why if the price of bitcoin is decreasing the price of all altcoin are also decreasing but we dont need to get  worried in that situation because its will be okay again just keep holding your money and wait the proper time.

[Asawakobana2017]

All altcoins really depend on the movement of Bitcoin’s price. But after Bitcoin finds its support zone and people accumulate it, all altcoins will start growing in sequence. It is one of the best ways to take Bitcoin away from people and give Shitcoins to them.

I think we need to hold, it is simply because we are now experiencing a huge dump and if we don't make a right decision on buying or maybe holding we can maybe loss in the near future. I believe that in the next few years altcoin will pump and it will reach the top.

[inyakizuryel]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Right now yes and most of the people here are really holding their coins, because that is an example of investment, you will invest your coins most especially when you don't need it and you don't have anything to buy!

[Last follen star]

I think everyone should solve it himself, if you are good at trading you can try to trade and get more coins when you fall, or you can just store your tokens in the hope of a bull market when they start growing faster than other coins.
I prefer hold 

[prayogi]

it is true if altcoin price is dependent on bitcoin, if bitcoin price drops then altcoin price will come down, and if the price goes up it must be altcoin price will come crawling up, but jangalah we depend on bitcoin because really if we want to use altcoin same we use bitcoin so we are free to choose who we will use.the most important we can be wise in using it.

[mikaeltomcruz12]

Off course much better on holding bitcoin than any other coin. Bitcoin has an unlimited potential than any other coin. Bitcoin show what cryptocurrency what for and support the cryptoworld.

[cryptothreads]

If we talk about my situation, now altcoins bring a really good return. Yes, there is a correction on the market, but this is not a reason to sell coins, but an incentive to buy them at a more attractive price.

I think if you want to invest in altcoins then it is best to invest in value instead of waiting for the price to drop before buying. This is very wrong because if we do not know if their team is growing or not? It is very dangerous to invest right now. Personally, I choose only those projects that are really good and have good potential because it will be a coin that will help you make a profit in the future.

[FilliDorros]

All altcoins which I earned I do not sell yet, and will not. Now is not a good time to sell any cryptocurrencies.

[otto2012]

It seems to me that it is better to sell your coins at the right time, when their price grows by several percent.

[dodgrad]

I think we need to hold altcoins, because like bitcoin, them can grow up and fall down, so if you hold them, you know, what can you do with them.

[Geoll29]

It is a must to hold altcoins especially if the value is low. We need to wait until value goes higher that it can provide us good income. It isn't wise to go on panic if suddenly the price drops because this means losses to us investors.

[chillitabit]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

it's obviously an opinion of an uneducated person who knows almost nothing about crypto. Dividing crypto into bitcoin and altcoin is just pure nonsense and soon that will be widely known.

[zmeddy]

Hello, yes, there is undoubtedly a connection between bitcoin and the other altcoins. But I think that it is not necessary to keep all money only in bitcoin. At the moment, bitcoin, this is the main coin in terms of capitalization, but the situation can change ..

[Kayuslawal]

Yes we should only hold the one created and back up by great developer and team.. .

[hammo]

you need? better to say 'you must' if you sell now you lose your all profit. how it is sound dude?

[malizechris]

Yes. If you come across a good project built with great use case you can holdl. These days so many start ups with fantastic vision are coming into blockchain industry.

So,  take advantage of those ones and become a successful investor.

Thanks.

[sangalangdavid]

Yes, specially if the prices of your altcoins are low, then you should really hold your altcoins. If not, you will not earn as much and you will surely regret in the end when the prices goes up.

[derigop]

In venture you are allowed to pick bitcoin and altcoin in light of the fact that that will be worth. I'm not going to choose that this great coin or that coin isn't great, it just makes me a trick. In any case, that make me an odd is, somebody who come and putting resources into digital currency they simply pick bitcoin just for a venture, they just altcoin just for a speculation I mean they didn't pick bitcoin. In any case, I have a certainty for those individuals who resulted in these present circumstances world they will have contributed on altcoin and bitcoin.

[BobBct]

I really recommend to hold you coins because if you don't you may loose the opportunity of that coin when it pumps crazy, trust me just do it i've suffer on my decisions in the past like that.

[bibiple]

I agree that the price of altcoins depends on the price of bitcoin. and I prefer to invest my money in new altcoins because I think they can give a good profit.

[aicel]

I think there are timed that altcoin must be good if you hold it. Like these days. It is better to hold because the market price are decreasing.Watch out for those profitable coins.

[thetruth123123]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I think that this decision must be based upon the project that represents this token. If the product seems worthy and durable so in my opinion this is a sign of worthiness of tokens.

[wpalczynski]

It depends on which altcoins and on what kind of investment you're aiming for. If you don't know why you are holding an altcoin, I think you should get rid of it.

[lucas79]

hold to die (hold is die) .. i already hold all my altcoin and when bitcoin go down, i lose more than 60% of my money.
HOLD is the last way to make money

[darmawan_lasuara]

I think the person has a point. But if you want to hold altcoin, you better invest in a really good altcoin, also note the team that developed the coin. Learn carefully before you invest in altcoin, it will help you avoid big risks in the future.

[the_dump1]

Yes! I think that now we do not have to sell altcoins and bitcoin. Very soon I expect the growth of all coins. I hope that this will happen.

[MortonAlden]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Hold your patience and excitement. No one knows the time of stoppage of the price fall. So I will suggest you to let the market be stable and then take the investment decision. If you still want to put money in there then you better go for ICOs. Why because most of ICOs are listing below ICO price at the moment which is pretty great, they’ll get listed after a long time and I hope the market will recover till then. Do some research on these Liven, Treon and Qurrex, these are my favorite projects.

[Mr.ZODIAC]

I always look very carefully for raising funds from investors ico companies. How can you determine the project's potential for development, After all, the availability of collected funds provides opportunities for more promising and real results.

[crypto_geeek]

In everything, intelligence is important. If you are holding altcoins with good potential that you think should grow, then it is not necessary to transfer all your funds to hold to BTC.

[senne]

I switched to such a situation where I converted my whole BTC to altcoin. I know it is not a good move but this can provide good returns but the only risk it contains is that when the market sinks there is a sharp decrease in your BTC holdings. But when you have some share of BTC in your account you will not see such a massive decrease in your wallet due to which it is always advised to have at-least 30-40% of your money in Bitcoin, so that your whole money does't flush out of market.

[Hovarda]

Altcoins is mostly useless right now. but there are projects that really work and work to do useful things. When market conditions begin to improve, they will certainly see what they deserve. If you are considering investing in the right project, do not sell it.

[Korkorjkk]

I do not agree with her. I will rather hold altcoin to bitcoin because I will get more profit. Altcoins are a good investment, even though the prices have gone down for a while, it will still rise up soon.

[uszaty43]

i prefer to hold all those altcoins that are offering POS because you are earning a passive income out of them ,just like it happens with the NEO/GAS structure

[rajapatr1]

there are some coins that are worth to hold at the moment, so in some cases, it is worth to hold because you are going to make a lot of money in the future

[RockBar0]

Altcoins is mostly useless right now. but there are projects that really work and work to do useful things. When market conditions begin to improve, they will certainly see what they deserve. If you are considering investing in the right project, do not sell it.

I do not think altcoin is useless and you can totally make a lot of profit with altcoin in this market. Over the last few months the cryptocurrency market has fallen sharply and most of the coins have fallen sharply, even in the BTC, but at that time there were strong growths due to the good news and the fact that it was effective projects.

[EastSound]

There are still few good altcoins in the market worth holding like omisego that will surely give huge profit in the long run, we just need to really select the best one before holding.

[Dragonrage201]

The main reason for holding altcoins is the much higher gains than bitcoin when the market booms. It is prudent to sell some portion of an altcoin after a big run up in its price in BTC.   

[Riskiagung2425]

yes HOLD is the best choice for now, when you HOLD your crypto then you have patience, for patience is the key to success in the world of crypto.

[Mohondoa]

There's many potential alts, for me it's okay to hold alts. But i don't want to hold alts If it can not give me some profit what i need. Beside that, i think they are more fast recovering than the bitcoins.

[Grimjhow]

for us also you can hold some altcoin for long term, because now altcoin the price is also still cheap, so you will get more profit in the future. by waiting for a price higher than the price you buy.

[mornabo]

there are some coins that are worth to hold at the moment, so in some cases, it is worth to hold because you are going to make a lot of money in the future

Of course, even though you see a lot of weakened coins due to the chaotic market conditions, but surely you will see some
potential coin, persisting coin and unaffected from chaotic marketc, what you should do is research which is worthed and potential

[greenclub09]

The main reason for holding altcoins is the much higher gains than bitcoin when the market booms. It is prudent to sell some portion of an altcoin after a big run up in its price in BTC.   

i agree, nowadays we hold altcoins because they are young and have more potential to rise rapidly in short time to bring us short term profit faster than top altcoins, so i guess, anyone want to have faster profit will choose to invest in altcoins for long term holding along with bitcoin to bring more chance to get profit in the future, of course the risks of holding altcoins are much more higher than top altcoins because the are unstable and easy to be manipulated by whales for pumping and dumping, it is up to you to choose a good altcoin to invest.

[p i e c e]

there are some coins that are worth to hold at the moment, so in some cases, it is worth to hold because you are going to make a lot of money in the future

We all can feel some panic when our cryptocurrencies start to fall down. Meanwhile, it will be better to forget about your emotions and hold the altcoins that you have in your wallet. I do it. IMHO.

[cmarquez]

I always encourage my friends and colleagues to hold your alternative coins or tokens once it is distributed. Lets not be grateful for a quick gratification of the income instead we must support the project that we have invested and wait for them to mature.

[Farahtenan]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes, I think it is very necessary once holding Altcoin. Because there are still many Altcoin who have good prospects for the future. Yes although not all Altcoin good at least you do not focus too much on Bitcoin and then leave Altcoin.

[Hzero]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

not always, it depends on which altcoin you hold. i see some of them has a future and his price not always depends on bitcoin. but remember you should know which altcoin really has a future, do not just speculate.

[Beldon]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes, I think we really need Altcoin. Because I believe that a lot of Altcoins that we deserve to hold. The most important thing that we hold Altcoin, of course, will promise for ourselves and ultimately will not disappoint.

[Altec251184]

As for me, all the Crypto-currencies are connected with BTC from him, the course and adjustments of all other coins go, BTC falls all others, it's probably as the gold and currency reserves of the countries from which the economy develops, so here, only the gold and foreign currency reserve in the sphere of crypto-currencies is BTC.

[stellaekun]

Holding seem to be the last resort in a bearish market. Prices are low and selling  will invariably means one is selling   at a loss

[Xenoph0bia]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

True that the alts highly rely on Bitcoin and see a gain and fall bitcoin does, but I prefer investing in alts because they  help in earning more percentage of profit than Bitcoin in the same period of time. As bitcoin is already a huge coin and has a big market capital, dip in the coin's value leads to great amount of loss.
Also, other alts have more advanced features than the pioneer like they provide more security in transactions, being completely anonymous, have less blockchain time and also can be used more than just an investment asset. Hence, they are a good investment choice.

[a_t_e_e_b]

it is true that the price of alt dependd on btc a lot and the rise and fall of alt is exponential to that of btc so if you want you can hold alt but never sell in panic or hurry

[okan]

it is true that the price of alt dependd on btc a lot and the rise and fall of alt is exponential to that of btc so if you want you can hold alt but never sell in panic or hurry

i think no.
because 90% of them are scam. they collect investors money and they slowly down to 0.000001$
i wish i hold only btc and eth.

[Teamsah541616]

some people have a faith with altcoin which they believe. because it have a good concept and strong community. and with this condition market right now , the safest way to survive are just Hold your asset. because FUD are still exist on this years.

[cryptowse]

the reason alts fall along side BTC is becuase they simply don't have fiat pairs and barley any of them have an actual main net, most if not all altcoins don't have the community that BTC has and i think the catalyst will be fiat pairs and regulation.

[AntonioKurandi]

Yup, I really recommend you doing it) I managed to participate in several ICO, some I earned quite well, I can say with certainty, for a good project, it must have a potential for the future, that it will be needed in five years. Unfortunately most projects do not have this potential. I was lucky and I came across a project focused on protecting against hacking quantum processors, and to maximize the use of all the advantages of new technologies, project Kelvin-blockchain, you need at least to consider because not every day there is such a good option for investing money. Have you heard of it? if not, check it out)

[Starving_Marvin]

 I'm thinking that butter would be to hold the top 5 cryptocurrencies, because all of those tokens that we can hold right now. Or not. They shoundnt grow, they can but it's not certain. So we can just loose the opportunity.

[Vladique]

In fact, many coins do not make sense to hold, now there are a lot of shitcoins that, after entering the exchange, will never grow in value, but will only fall. Therefore, only worthy projects need to be hold

[cloud9]

Its nice to hold different coins including btc if you have a big budget, but if you dont have any additional funds it is realy a wise move to hold some alts that migh prosper in the coming years like ripple or cardano.

[nairb131]

Although bitcoin is the best coin for hold and you can make a reasonable profit but there are also some very potential altcoin that are also good for hold and you make reasonable profit because you buy at low price as they are cheaper than bitcoin and when the price rise, you get chances to make profit.

[Jraf95]

if you someone who likes to just invest, bitcoin will be the king today and almost in the future. So throw your money at alts riskier than BTC. But if you someone who wants to get more BTC, you should trading ALTS. I mean alts by design is to make more BTC. well, dyor and this not an investment advice.

yes we do need to hold some alts specially if see for the market value that it is in low tide, and others have techniques that holding some alts for a better option when time comes to choice what to release.
although bitcoin would be tge most of all yet alts would be sometimes their way to have some steps or some improvementnto compete for others.

[saqwe]

It is not a must to hold altcoin but if it is a good on for hold, you can hold them to make reasonable profit when the value rise higher than it was when you bought it. If you research about it, there are some coin that are good for holding, if you research about it, you will find the good ones. It is always profit to hold especially if you do not have an experience of trading.

[KuraJamban]

Sometimes altcoins can give us a bigger profit than BTC but it all depends on the project.
If you're holding altcoin that doesn't have a good potential then you're nothing to do with it and just wasting time holding a shitcoins.

[TXCEO]

Although the altcoin is dependent on bitcoin, now the altcoin is more suitable for investment, because the profit margin is bigger, the current BTC price is too high, and the growth rate is too slow, BTC is more suitable for long-term holding!

[Sermihal]

I think if bitcoin is growing then some altcoins can grow even better than bitcoin. The best method would be to buy bitcoin at 50% and altcoins at 50 %.

[riwatmoni]

I think altcoin has a very high risk, but gets higher rewards too, because If we really do duel dilligence, we ourselves in the coins we want to invest, we can reduce the risk of our investment later, but if we want to have coin is good for holding only with bitcoin or ethereum because the risk looks lower but also neutral has a higher and lower reward.

[Marvell1]

Although the altcoin is dependent on bitcoin, now the altcoin is more suitable for investment, because the profit margin is bigger, the current BTC price is too high, and the growth rate is too slow, BTC is more suitable for long-term holding!

I think so too. Now we have a very difficult situation on the market. A long-term holding of many coins can lead to losses. But I think that most alts will be very expensive in a few years. That's why you should be ready for holding your crypto for a few years.

[Dancing_Lion]

Now I have a lot of altcoins. Yes, I also keep part of the BTC, but the main part of the income I get is due to altcoins, because they have an increasingly important role in the modern crypto market.

[smoker36]

I think that half of your fund should be allocated for investments and purchase of BTC. And the second half of the funds is better distributed among several reliable altcoins.

[santosummer]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Theories and values ​​as well as the market effect are relativistic. It can happen nice and effectively with these people. but compared to others is the opposite. At times, because altcoins are quite cheap and gain more attention. Therefore, you can keep altcoin to grow better profits.

[hieuho381]

I think that half of your fund should be allocated for investments and purchase of BTC. And the second half of the funds is better distributed among several reliable altcoins.

i agree, our investment should always be kept in 2 part: one for Bitcoin and one for other altcoins, because bitcoin has already popular for long time so the profit can be less than altcoins, thay is why we choose to invest in altcoins instead, w can easily earn profit from rising of an new altcoin and easily get double or tripple the amount of money we invested, so having both bitcoin and altcoins is really important.

[bootlace]

Some alts have value that can be grow with time. But I know alts that we can forget forever and not need it. That's why it's right to decide what we hold and what sell without doubt

[bitcoinzen]

if we are expecting profits from long time then we should hold coins we should nt sell the coins in loss we should feel panic when the market is in downtrend better to buy at dips and sell in profit

[removebeforeflight]

Agree. If BTC falls, then all the altcoins price falls and when BTC rise, then all the altcoins will rice. Bitcoin is the mother of all altcoins and the price trend directly impacts the other altcoins and what ever they are popular or potentially good also they will react to the movement of Bitcoin price. The crypto market is trending in such a way and this is what happens all the time.

[AnCapFree]

actually, I think holding or selling depend on which coins we bought. If it has a good team and product, you should hold until its product is made instead of selling it. You can get big profit

[beami]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

Yes, of course, we still need to hold some Altcoin that has good potential for the future. Yes, although I know that Bitcoin cannot be matched by other coins we also should not focus on just one coin.

[hanomnom]

Yes, altcoins can be a pretty promising option for investment. Many coins now have a promising development concept, so it's worth choosing the right option from time to time.

[jlpabilonia]

it depends to the altcoin that you are holding.. its better to hold a altcoin that has a great future.. all you need to do is to do some research and observation about your altcoin that you are holding.. be wise and be observant

[TCTDev]

Crypto currency is a very risky investment. That's why you have to make a decision about whether you are ready to take risks or not. After all, no one will give you a guarantee that your investments will give you a profit.

[jigzaheedcoin]

Crypto currency is a very risky investment. That's why you have to make a decision about whether you are ready to take risks or not. After all, no one will give you a guarantee that your investments will give you a profit.

I see. As what my co member has told me regarding this matter,altcoins is not a must to hold. Crypto is created with a number of purposes it's either necessary or necessity. According to him, if you intend to hold for a very long period of time it may result to frustration however,if you have this mind set of being quick and happy go lucky ability then you can sell at your best. It doesn't matter. And,I believe that both are profitable.

[aggress0r]

Yes we really need to hold alts but let me explain something. It is obviously clear that there are more than 1500 coins/tokens and they all can be called altcoins. If hold alts just aim top 100-200 cmc, others for speculation reasons only!

[atjiat]

Yes we really need to hold alts but let me explain something. It is obviously clear that there are more than 1500 coins/tokens and they all can be called altcoins. If hold alts just aim top 100-200 cmc, others for speculation reasons only!

I think that investments will have a better result for us than daily trading. By investing, we provide security for ourselves, in the sense that when trading, we can lose more, especially if there is no experience.

[yunusseymen16]

There's many potential alts, for me it's okay to hold alts. But i don't want to hold alts If it can not give me some profit what i need. Beside that, i think they are more fast recovering than the bitcoins.

It's right that altcoins rely on bitcoin price movements. But you can make daytrading by altcoins and increase your bitcoin amount.

Bitcoin affects altcoin prices because when you trade altcoins, you buy bitcoin first or ethereum most of the time. You have the option to be safe and just hold bitcoin because it is the most likely coin that will last for a long time but if you wanted to increase the amount of bitcoin you hold then it would be better to buy altcoin and then sell it if its bitcoin value increase. There is no need to hold altcoins but it is a great way to increase your bitcoin or for some ethereum holdings.

The final decision will be yours , if you do not want to hold your bitcoin or anything it's your choice and no one can dectate you.
Make sure that your decision have wise decision like doing any reseach because you don't do that maybe you will failed in the future.

The situation of the market is slowly gaining the momentum, so it is good to hold the coins until the price starts increasing. In the mean time, people who hold the coins will always get benefits with the increased price of all altcoins.

[PX-Z]

from my 1 year experience on the crypto currency. i always keep alt only. alt is very good investment compare to btc. if we need to invest on btc , we have invest lot of. but in alt we can start with little money. if you find potential alts you are rich.
these days my picks are

PRL
ZIL
SENC

Yes its probably true that investing into altcoins can be more profitable compared to bitcoin, because of the cheaper price of altcoins. But it's truly difficult to find a good and reliable altcoins that you can trust in investing your money for a long period of time, it really takes a lot of time in researching and reviewing of there project before you find a good and reliable altcoin that you can trust, unlike in bitcoin that is already proven and tested by so many investors from this forum.

[renault18turbo]

Our main task is to invest in the right altcoins that will survive and not disappear as 90 percent. I would advise to invest in Red Pulse, Apex, Refereum

[Ewox]

I think it depends on you though, if you think it is better to hold on to altcoins then hold them but if you see that bitcoin is better to hold on to rather than altcoins then I’d most probably hold bitcoin or maybe almost all of my coins are converted to bitcoin and anportion would be ethereum or something like that.

[jakezyrus]

DO WE REALLY??? no. we arent forcing here.  no one has been forced to hold an alt nor bitcoin . if you wanted to earn a profit or if you want to use a crypto for buying or paying  , then that is the perfect time to say that you must hold your own altcoins.  but if you are just a causual person or an average joe that is not really familliar on how crypto works , then there is no need for you to buy them. crypto is not your business , period.

[cunguks]

Holding both for bitcoin and altcoin is rather a good choice. Adding one more option to take more profit is a strategy that everyone has ever thought. It even could be more if they have much in their pocket. Some altcoins have a good prospect, so we should not miss our chance to get additional profit just because underestimating the potential of altcoins.

[daviost]

yes, we really need to hold altcoin and btc at the same time.

cause altcoin offer some new feature that you wont find in bitcoin. like : transaction speed, privacy, and other function which you won't found it in btc.

so that's why before we decided to hold the altcoins we must make sure to check their product, community, team, etc.

[Ra.moomoy]

Yes it is. By holding the coin you can help to increase the value as selling will lower the price. Once the product is stable that is the time you can make a sell and earn your profit.

[Captainluffy24]

For me her point is actually reasonable and correct! I also notice it, when the price of BTC is goong down other altcoin is affected as well which make altcoins dependable to BTC which is not good.

[kritiana008]

I don't think so as well. To my mind, they are worth to be traded because they are more active than BTC. I am sure that altcoins are better for trading than for holding.

[Korkorjkk]

Even though I agree with her to some extent, I also think it is not bad to hold altcoins. Some altcoins like Ethereum are very good and holding them can guarantee you profit. It is only the new altcoins that are coming up that the performance of the coin is not yet stable.

[riska hanissa]

as seen from any existing price movement is altcoin very dependent on bitcoin and proved every bitcoin price decreased then decreased altcoin price, but when altcoin price down did not give any effect to bitcoin.
this is what proves that the bitcoin aka keeps growing and surviving in the absence of altcoin.

Holding altcoins is ok as long as you are holding a good coins. Its true that holding with new coins is quiet riky because there is no history trend for that coin so its hard to analyze that coin. I suggest only hold top coins in the long run because the chance of having good profit on that is very high.

[bennypagulayan]

Currently holding atlcoin is a great opportunity for us, because the price of ETH is too low if they do not grow up anymore, the altcoin will not be able to rise so high, so I think the market will soon recover and Holding altcoin is a good method

[goaldigger]

Bitcoin established its foundation in a strong way thats why its a good choice of investment because of its long term existence. On the other hand, people should also invest or hold altcoins in order to diversify their resources and have different sources of income. With this you cant just focus only in BTC but also other alt opportunities.

[galahads]

Absolutely you should! This is of course you have made your research and know you have chosen good coins to hold! If you did your job right, there will always be room to grow.

[TokenForUs]

i think so, it will be better to hold bitcoin in long term period investment rather than choosing altcoin to hold in long term period. Altcoin are very vulnerable to be undervalue or even make it zero value. We cant predict how long will altcoin last without any good news or few upgrades on it. its too risky to invest in altcoin for long term period, especially if we face such currenct market situation which the most of altcoin's price dropped and really hard to rise again. I will definitely sell all of my altcoin into bitcoin and hold it.

[vixcious]

Someone told me it is better to hold btc rather than altcoins that she doesn't see any reason why people hold altcoin. She noticed altcoins rely heavily on btc that whenever btc fall they also fall with btc. What is your take on this?

I do not think the fall altcoins are due to Bitcoin. I think the whales are all divided into the crypto market and they work in groups. Any sell signal is announced, the market will be red. This is a market without legal protection, so the whales often work.

[Jesabela04]

I believe that holding altcoins would be the best choice that we could do during this kind of situation. We should store more and try keeping more altcoins so that wewould be able to have a good preparation in the future. Now is also the perfect time for us to start buying and keep holding.

[cunguks]

The durability of bitcoin might defeat other existing coins. Hold bitcoin is normal or it can be said that very few people in this community which don't hold bitcoin. Most people usually have a few bits of bitcoin in their wallet. Either they often use it or just silence it in the wallet. And in case of altcoins, there are only a few altcoins that people can put in full trust. Some of them can make a lot of profits.

itu tergantung pada orang masing-masing orang karena kita tidak dapat mengumpulkan satu sama lain

[azalea69]

Saving more altcoins will benefit you later.
Various kinds of altcoins can later be exchanged with one BTC, thus holding BTC and waiting for future prospects.

[onebtcforlife]

Yes, if you are a trader you can grab as many altcoins as possible through trading because once the market recovering we can able to see growth in terms of altcoin prices. So even if you hold the coins until their price starts increasing you will get more benefits from it.
