Of course the first choice is bitcoin because it was already tested in terms of digital investment. It is worth to invest in bitcoin because it was the very strong ,valuable and popular coin in crypto world. It is the best investment until now. Don't forget also ethereum and bitcoin cash. Actually there are many potential coins in the market that is good to invest this 2018. Just research and select the coins that you think is profitable.

If you want to separate investments you may have to start with coins that already have the potential to grow and already in the top 100 coinmarketcap. Because if you are not careful in choosing the coin you want to invest in my opinion it will give you a loss because you don't know about the future of the coin.

[sniper23]

I don't think no should invest in BTC unless they have at least 1 BTC.

Also, never give up of top ten 10 coins if you fear taking a risk.

I prefer to invest altcoins for a short term due to market dipping too much.

That is ok if it is the strategy that works for you.It may sometimes be nice to have a few tokens kept for long term rewards or gains.it makes you not lose out on some tokens when the market momentum suddenly changes for good

[Sled]

Go for bitcoin first before investing into any cryptocurrency, prioritize bitcoin as it is the king and the trendsetter and you cannot go wrong if you are going to invest and put your money in bitcoin in 2018 because that is the best choice that you could ever done in your life so you should better buying bitcoin now.

[MaryClark12]

Currently, coin companies are investing in Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH). These coins are now very high in the cryptocurrency market. And in the very future, its value will also increase very high.

The best cryptocurrency in today's date is bitcoin only.Bitcoin is a money making machine and we all should take advantage of it.Bitcoin is the most valuable and expensive cryptocurrency in the market.There are also some other cryptocurrencies like ethereum,ripple etc but they cannot give competition to bitcoin.Bitcoin has the largest number of users.Bitcoin is the best option for investment purposes in today's date as the prices are rising andit will give huge amounts of payments.

I’m going to be accumulating the majority of the coins below over the course of 2018 Q1—I’m a big believer in a diversified portfolio.

Especially in crypto.

I split coins into 3 tiers. Coins in tiers 1 & 2 I will be continuously adding to my holdings throughout Q1.

I based these tiers on my investment strategy, I highly suggest creating a strategy before investing in anything.

You need to have a goal that you’re working towards, and a framework for how you want to reach that goal.

My goal is to increase my holdings of Tier 1 & 2 coins, by trading coins from tier 3 on a short-medium time frame (2–6 months).

I also margin trade Tier 1 & 2 coins and use profits to increase my overall $BTC position.

Don’t margin trade.

It’s bad.

Not margin trading is rule #8 in my “10 Crypto Commandments”.

Some of these coins I don’t believe in as long term investments.

Most of the time, the criteria I use to pick coins starts fundamentally with the team, roadmap, and community.

Once I’ve deemed a coin as “Fundamentally Strong”, I then go into the charts and apply Technical Analysis to determine if I can get a solid entry point.

Sometimes, I’ll see a coin I don’t think will last in the long run, but the chart is just too pretty to say no. I will denote these coins with an [X] by their name.

Cliche Disclaimer: none of this is financial advice, don’t even listen to me, I’m a random person on the internet — I could be full of sh*t and you wouldn’t know it.

Do your own research and only ever invest what you can afford to lose.

Tier 1

Bitcoin ($BTC)

I always hold at least a little BTC. Bitcoin is the market leader, and until that changes, I will always hedge against my Altcoin investments with Bitcoin. I typically have any where from 10–30% of my portfolio in Bitcoin depending on Bitcoin dominance at that time.

Bitcoin dominance refers to the percentage of the total cryptocurrency market share which is held by Bitcoin. You can check the live stat here.

The link also shows the market dominance of the other major coins on the market- spend some time getting to know the chart and notice how coins market caps correlate negatively or positively with each other.

Understanding the market cycles of crypto is pivotal to successful investing.

Tier 2

Neo ($NEO) & Ethereum ($ETH)

ETH and NEO are competitors. They solve the same problems, are both serious coins with large market caps, and I hold both as long term investments.

I’m not hedging against my bets by investing in competitors. It’s feasible to me that these two entities could co-exist in the future in a fashion similar to how Apple and Samsung coexist.

Bitcoin would still be the best. Though ethereum has it's rally this year too, but Bitcoin remains to be on top on the list so I would still invest in Bitcoin for as long as it has a promising future and a possible rise to another $20k or even above it.

I think the all-time best currency for investing in crypto currency is bitcoin there is no other doubt that if you want to more time then there are many choices available for you it also be profitable make sure it will not affect your profit and hopefully it will be profitable in your future .

 Bitcoin is still the best for investment, it is stable, with good market structures, stable fundamentals, with high level of confidence by the investors into the crypto market, Bitcoin remains number one among all other ALT coins as posted in the market. It is all over the news either at social media and broadcast media, which shows that Bitcoin growing acceptance globally indicates that Bitcoin is the coin to invest. i am optimistic that once it break the resistant in the market it will make a market history again.

Any negative impact can change its value like banning the bitcoin in some countries, panic sell.and any good news can increase its price.

[Ansdaoust6]

I'm currently betting on:
Ethereum
Cardano
Ripple

Its depend on you which crypto currency you chose for what purpose.For example if you're looking for long term investing like holding then you should chose bitcoin because it has stamina of increase price more than any other alt coins.

[hannahboy]

Investing in crypto is very risky, l suggest to try ICO investment, they're risky but less. With you analytic skills you could minimize your risk. I'm looking forward to invest in this upcoming ICO project, what is your thoughts https://medium.com/@kelvinchain/the-post-quantum-era-of-blockchain-todays-solutions-for-the-world-of-tomorrow-16bdd970f49a?

Although bitcoin can be the first options for all the investors and traders, but still if a person is interested to invest their money in some other places in crypto world, then he need to study the market and after good satisfaction should choose a right place for his investment. Actually a lot of altcoins are there which can be consider as the best place for your investment.

Many haters spearing false news which make us to do panic sell we should not listen to them always think positive about bitcoin.When we're doing panic sell we actually contributing for drooping bitcoin's price.

[ErmaburR]

I'm currently betting on:
Ethereum
Cardano
Ripple

Where other crypto currnecies like alt coins only better for trade.ETH, Dogecoins, Monero, and goolem are best for trading.

[A L I E N]

I'm currently betting on:
Ethereum
Cardano
Ripple

I will partly agree with your choice, bro. Here, I love Cardano much! I am sure that this platform will be developing in the future and altcoin price will grow in several times. I also bet on Credits, TRON, and Stellar.

[thetruth123123]

Go for ADA, NEO, EO those three will be enough to hold for 2018 and maybe even 2019 years because all the things are puzzling in the way that shows that we will suffer for a long time even from now.

[Aamir1]

2018 may be a market that has been falling, holding a better choice for your bitcoin in such a market.

I think Cryptocurrency sprang up everywhere like Bitcoin because this is the first of every peer-to-peer network, providing coins and trading platforms, also has its own blockchain, its current market capitalization, its price, its scalability, and its popularity is hard to ignore. and will stay for a long time. so the advice I would give is that any crypto currency that is not only there to serve as a coin or a trading asset but provide more services will definitely survive and you can invest in it in the long run.

No I don’t think so because $50k is very huge price and there is a big difference between $50k and the price today. In the rest of this year I think that the price would reach approximately $20000. It is enough for bitcoin. Those investors that bought bitcoin for $18 or 19k would recover their deficits and if the price grows more they would earn some money after long wait.

[gunungkembar]

for now it seems that the most suitable for investment in 2018 is bitcoin because bitcoin has a very good potential to rise and the current condition of bitcoin prices also falls so take advantage of bitcoin price movements to be able to get a lot of profits.

There are many prospective couriers right now on the stage of cryptocurrency market, so theoretically you can just go with any of them just make sure that they are included in the  top 10 cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin is always the best among all the coins and reason for this it is the mother of all crypto currency and it value is way high than all other alt coins.
