Hi, I'm a crypto developer doing dapps and blockchain-related software products. I have found some interesting difference between bitcoin investors and altcoin investors. It seems like bitcoin holders(like you guys) are more focus when discussing news and crypto-related issues. Altcoin holders are more...how do I put this....more impatient and cannot focus on any subject for more than 3 days. What do you think of this phenomenon?

In a way, it's less about the difference between Bitcoin and altcoin "investors" and more about the difference between people who are invested for the right reasons and those who are merely speculating.
There aren't that many altcoins which will genuinely disrupt the more traditional industries or improve the world in any meaningful way for the average person. Most altcoins exist primarily as speculative assets, so it stands to reason that "investors" (read: speculators) would have a shorter attention span. Once the hype has died down, it's time to cash in and move on to the next shiny collection of buzzwords and gimmicks and pump that one instead. The motivation there is greed.
Bitcoin fulfills an actual purpose. Some people invest not just with their money, but with their belief and aspirations. They invest their time and understanding, which are often far more valuable. They invest in it for the ethos and not just the potential profits. They recognise that freedom and privacy are important qualities that need to be preserved in a world that appears to be undermining them. The motivation is a little more wholesome and genuine. Definitely something to stick around for.

This is a pretty interesting phenomenon. Because Bitcoin has only one platform and has not been upgraded for years, it does provide a sense of security and investors only want to discuss its price. The altcoins always change quarter by quarter and that has created a special color in this forum. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Because crypto related news will also have an impact on the price of bitcoin, in this case, because bitcoin is one of the major pairs of all cryptocurrencies. because basically between altcoins and bitcoin is a correlation that cannot be separated.
But in essence, most investors in bitcoin believe that bitcoin will have a good future and will still be able to continue to grow.

You have to see that Bitcoin has a greater number of users and many of them are big investors, so they analyze with more care the market trends or the changes that may occur, on the other hand, the altcoins still do not reach the level of participation high that is expected.

I think this can be said to he because of price values, difference and market dominance. As a Bitcoin holder, you know your asset controls the whole market to a high percentage. So you will want to keep an eye on it and follow every news and price movement. Altcoins holders are only waiting for massive price increase most times. So most people just buy and set a sell order base on the price range they feel it might reach.

Bitcoin investors are more about the acceptance and regulations into modern financial and real world use. Most altcoin investors are looking for the next big thing and are under the assumption that Bitcoin can be dethroned by any random altcoin.
Yes you are right in here. Maximum altcoin holders or traders look to BTC price and its characteristics also. They think that if BTC price up, alt price also will up. But last 6 months we see its opposite direction in market. BTC trades has not alternative options that they can depend on. They directly think for invest .

I too would sure focus in bitcoin than with Altcoins, Because you can be sure with bitcoin that is the first Cryptocurrency ever make to really make it big and even if you had traded with it in a longer-term you can be really sure that your investment will increase after a lot of years to past, I really don't doubt bitcoin and I would exchange all of my Altcoins for bitcoin that is for sure to really enhance even further the value of bitcoin, And to strengthen its potential.

Anyone investing funds in a project should be profit oriented, this includes regular research ant staying updated, technical and foundamental analysis. Those (bitcoin and altcoin investors) who are not focused on the factors are likely going to lose out.

The thing is, most(definitely not all) of the altcoin investors are investing in certain coins because they're looking for the sort of "next big thing", hoping for some altcoins to reach the same price as bitcoin, even with coins like XRP without taking into consideration the huge circulating supply. Bitcoin holders though? It's either one of two things. - 1. The holder is a realistic person and invested in pretty much the safest "investment" in the cryptocurrency space: bitcoin. Why? Simply because the other coins and tokens are no where near bitcoin in terms of security and adoption. Yes, not on speed. But honestly speed isn't the most important thing, especially compared to security and decentralization.
- 2. The holder simply doesn't know that other cryptocurrencies exist.
Whether or not you think investing in altcoins is stupid or not, there are definitely good traders out there making huge gains on short-term investing on altcoins.

It seems like bitcoin holders(like you guys) are more focus when discussing news and crypto-related issues. This is because most of the people who invest in bitcoin have noticed that the price increases when there is good news, that is why people pay a lot of attention in the news or, rather, people pay attention in the news channels. Altcoin holders are more...how do I put this....more impatient and cannot focus on any subject for more than 3 days. Altcoins has "owners", people who hold lots of coins and who decide the direction the project is going to take and as if that is not enough altcoins have many investors who have invested in the project and expect a profit, they demand immediate results and when no immediate results are given, investors leave the boat, see cases like LISK, Siacoin and STRATIS What do you think of this phenomenon? The key words are: profits and investments

yes, because they (altcoins) know very well that altcoins are only supporting coins that have a period of popularity not like bitcoin. most people who talk about bitcoin are very serious and very enthusiastic because bitcoin has a good future that differs from 180 ° to altcoin.

It is true that bitcoin investors want more than the altcoins because they are considering the price but dont forget that altcoins investor are wise investors. Bitcoin is only a base currency for most altcoins including ethereum. Altcoins have more potentials than bitcoin because it will continue to grow but altcoins growth will be more sporadic than bitcoin.

in my opinion, cryptocurrency investors will choose to take advantage of opportunities that will get these investors to gain profits and what cryptocurrency investors might be able to survive with just one coin

it all comes down to the main purpose of each of these cryptocurrencies. bitcoin's main purpose has always been to become a decentralized payment system that doesn't require any middleman, in short a currency. and people (even those who invest in it only) will eventually see that true purpose and want that too on top of the profit they are making.
but the main purpose of majority of altcoins, specifically the ICO tokens, have been profit making. so everyone who gets involved with them will eventually only focus and care about making profit. as a result all the discussions will also be focused on making profit.
for example you can visit altcoin board and even search about altcoins. you rarely find anything technical about any of them and the discussions are never about anything but price. but searching about bitcoin you can always find hundreds of topics, discussions, videos, wiki pages,... dedicated to technical discussions.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip. Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Timing also has some influence on the behavior of some Alt coin investors. The thought about this is the time when you entered the Bitcoin scene. The early investors is in no rush to make massive profits, because they already made some good profits with the last ATH in 2017, so you will find that they will dabble in Alt coins, but not aggressively like some new Crypto currency investors. The majority of the new Crypto currency investors are all over the place, because they also want to cash in on a ATH and that is why they are scrambling all over the place, to find the next "Bitcoin" in all the 1000's of Alt coins.

Maybe because altcoin investor sometimes, even not all, only want to hit and run. It is humane, of course investor wouldn't think about any else if not profit and join other project, and take profit again.

They can't take it if they see their altcoin portfolio falling.
Bitcoin investors are more experienced and patient than the altcoin holders. And day trading usually happens to the altcoins though there are more with bitcoin with its daily volume but its more applicable to the altcoin investors.

Rent this sig space so that BTC goes to $100k.
