Altcoins or Bitcoin?

[Yatsan]

Hold both and trade some, I suggest that you should consider long term trading and long term trading to maximize the profit and minimize the risk. And please, don't trade any new coin or coin that doesn't have a reputation. So here is my example:

Currently, I divide my portfolio into:

50% Bitcoin
25% ETH
25% XRP

I have my own funds on trading. I do daily trade and mostly just scalping or minute trade, I suggest that when you are going to make daily trade make sure that you can maximize your time in watching those charts. Buy low sell High simple as that, and you will make a profit.

I should have kept everything in Bitcoin but some projects made me fascinated about them and put part of my BTC into them and hodling them all now. Hopefully, they will grow with time and my investments will yield. If there was an option to go back then I would never give away my bitcoin for alts.

Investing in bitcoin is always the best optiion to invest in cryptocurrency, the chance of getting profits is high but the profits will not so high since the risk is low. In crypto currency the higher the higher profits if it's success. Thats why most people are holding more likely 50% or more bitcoin on their portofolio and the rest are for altcoin to get more profits to gamble their luck.

profits depend on capital if we invest in bitcoin, in fact all cryptos have the same high risk due to fluctuations. but indeed bitcoin is lower because it has a very large volume, so it is not easy to get a pump and dump scheme.

Anyone who will like or try to invest in bitcoin have not to think that there will be ever a pump and dump scheme because if they will go through the history of bitcoin they will see a continuous rise in the price chart of bitcoin. There are some dumps but in the long term there is a rise from the beginning. It is better if we invest in bitcoin then we wait and we will see a profit in our investment.

I know, here I say that for altcoin, because there are quite a lot of shitcoins so there are also many pump and dump schemes in altcoins. therefore I say it's better to choose bitcoin, especially next year there will be halving with a hype that is big enough so that it will make prices increase like previous history.

Bitcoin is always the best option for holding, agree there are many shit coin in the market which we are seeing many pumps and dump, there are many other potential coins in the market, which we have seen many potential coins which we are generating very good volumes in the market. So it is very good to hold some coins.

Yes no doubt in market so many altcoins are available but the best one I like is one and only Bitcoin. We should believe in bitcoin the most for making future investments we should keep bitcoin at priority in our portfolio and other altcoins are dependent on price of bitcoin and it’s only Bitcoin that keeps market move up and down with its demand and supply.

Exactly beta coin to invest your money as long as you can. The more you buy bitcoin so it will make a profit for you. Right now the best time to have some bitcoins as after a few years it will be double in price then it will be lost.  Altcoins  good but only ETH for me is the good coin after bitcoin to invest our money as with few patients we will gain profit

Bitcoin is the most loved coin in the crypto market and people are really crazy about it for its tendency to reach unexpected and unbelievable prices. There is no doubt that the more number of bitcoin you have, the more chances you have of huge profits in the future. Well among altcoins, ethereum behaves like bitcoin and it is never a bad combination to have both bitcoin and ethereum in wallet for big money.

that's a good portfolio. for bitcoin 50% of assets, I totally agree, moreover there is a possibility that the price of bitcoin will go up high. for ethereum, 25% might be good enough, but I suggest increasing it to 30%. however, the development of XRP is not so good this year. I might prefer to hold 20% on BNB, or BCH. Well, BCH always follows the bitcoin trend, so when the price of bitcoin goes up, there is a possibility that the price of BCH will also go up.

Altcoin and good investment but I think Bitcoin is the best hold it can get you a lot of profit. The altcoin is new and Bitcoin is much older. The demand for it is high. Many people use Altcoin again. If Bitcoin is popular like Altcoin, many will use Altcoin. Everything is just a waste of time. There are also many differences between Bitcoin and Altcoin prices.

if you are choosing between to, I think bitcoin is the most profitable because if you are looking backwards about the history of the bitcoin, its start from the lower price and by the time goes by the amount of the coin rise up and reach over one thousand and four hundred dollars that kind of worth it was so vast and profitable if you are investor came from 2017, but today the cost of the coin goes down before coming 2020, and that was not quite good to us, many traders are changing their strategy and techniques to earn while the bitcoin is low, they use the altcoin because altcoins does not have a huge changes unlike the bitcoin and still the traders make a little amount of profit. Still, a profit is a profit it gives you additional money and source of income to you.

[bitzizzix]

Bitcoin is far better than Altcoin and always gives good returns and is always profitable, so I think it's natural that Bitcoin is the best choice in investment and the most popular.
and besides I own bitcoin, I also have several Altcoins like Ethereum and Litecoin which I have long believed and have the potential to benefit in the long run.

If you are an investor then you will say that bitcoin is far better than altcoin. But for the minority of the cryptocurrency space, the traders, they prefer altcoins compare to bitcoin because altcoins are more volatile than bitcoin and it can bring you an easy profit up to 10% in just a day which attracts people from bitcoin to put up their money into altcoins.

[riso2015]

For better, You can choose Altcoin 50% and Bitcoin%, but you should really choose the potential Altcoin as you mentioned, ETH and BCH. Because I think the two Altcoins have a good future so it's very suitable for long-term investment. Bitcoin is always the best choice if you start doubt.

[Emitdama]

The fact that altcoins like ETH, BCH and others are slowly gaining more use has made me thinking. If somebody were to HODL one currency, what could it be?
A 100% altcoin portfolio? Or a 100% bitcoin portfolio?
Or do you support holding multiple crypto coin holding?

it would be nice if you are a Holder, you hold both Bitcoin and Altcoin because that way you will get a double benefit from what you hold if both have gone up. but have to be patient when the price starts to fall or you buy more to hold.

I see it as a simple maths

Bitcoins - Best for price trading and holding because there will never be a time when you wake up and see BTC being reduced to half the price when you went to bed so it's good for hold because the price goes bonkers when it rises but does not go down too much.

Altcoins - Best for high risk traders who don't mind loosing all the investment but are looking for HIGH PROFITS in short period of time.

If you wish to earn more in less amount of time, then go for altcoins while if you are a serious trader who looks solid but small profits BTC if your best bet.

[radjie]

If I have to choose one, then I choose the main bitcoin because bitcoin is the main coin of cryotocurrency, most people choose bitcoin in the long run because it is not too risky like altcoin, there are good altcoins like ETH and BCH both always follow the bitcoin chart every when, for me holding altcoin in the long and short term is not a good decision at the moment

bitcoin is indeed far more profitable if it is invested for the long term, because the cryptocurrency market or other types of coins all depend on bitcoin market price movements. although there are some types of altcoin that are quite potential, but when the price increases it certainly follows the bitcoin price movements.

[OrangeII]

For better, You can choose Altcoin 50% and Bitcoin%, but you should really choose the potential Altcoin as you mentioned, ETH and BCH. Because I think the two Altcoins have a good future so it's very suitable for long-term investment. Bitcoin is always the best choice if you start doubt.

if you are confused with that, split it 50% bitcoin and 50% altcoin. however, for altcoin, it does have to be popular altcoin which has potential. actually ETH and BNB are enough, but if you have more assets, I suggest also to have another altcoin, especially the top 10 coins besides USDT.

[Ann1989]

I would go with a mix of both but I'm more inclined towards bitcoin.

What's the opinion on staking alt-coins? I have seen a whole lot of news about staking this year and it looks like the industry norm nowadays. I'm looking to find out the pros and cons of it as I heard there is a lot that can be said about the tokens and cryptocurrencies that use this as opposed to traditional methods. I also heard that more and more exchange platforms are offering it directly via their service and there are more formats by which to get involved than before. It definitely looks like an easy way to build on my existing investments via the rewards that it offers but sometimes I think it sounds too good to be true and there must be some kind of cons to doing so. What do you guys think? Should I start staking or just stick to what I know and invest directly in tokens?

Safer to trade altcoins, I don't think you'd have the skills to trade bitcoin, hard to predict for anyone.

The plan is the same for every crypto trader, accumulation biitcoins with good potentiel altcoins

[Landak]

can't choose one because it's obvious I'm currently holding bitcoin and altcoin. and the answers of the people here also definitely choose to do both. okay, cheap altcoin can be bought in large quantities but if bitcoin continues to fall, it is useless to hold altcoin. it's safer to hold bitcoin but it will definitely feel something is lacking to hold, so buy altcoin to hold. if you can trade, it is better than doing long term hold.

Bitcoin is the pioneer coin, nothing beats the pioneer , it has also the biggest number of traders among all other coins, so for me? My vote is for bitcoin,other coin needed to be converted into bitcoin before it can be sent to our wallet, I will choose to hold more bitcoins and will make it as a long term investment for me. altcoin is good also, if you dont have $7300 now buy altcoin for alternative investment.

actually it's true, some traders only use btc as a pair trading, i even rarely active with btc / usdt. My strategy is almost similar, continuing to accumulate and only making large withdrawals 2-3x a year. The price of altcoin in satoshi which is smaller and more affordable makes the percentage of profit easier to obtain, and also faster when anticipating losses.

[nutella_11]

Well, if Bitcoin's price is high, other cryptocurrencies are profitable too. So, now it's great time to buy and hold and when btc will rise, altcoins will rise too. Of course, it's hard to compare some of them to btc but it doesn't mean that they are not promising at all. I've been wondering about buying IOTA, because it will be available on CoinDeal soon. What do you think about this coin?

Yes, you take the example of Matic, you get a 500% profit in BTC just by holding it , if you had just traded the bitcoin instead, even trading good, you'd have made a 50% at most being the best trader and taking a lot of risks.
It is just not worth it to trade with bitcoins unless you already have a huge amount of bitcoins.
