Investment for 5 years requires careful analysis. I choose btc for hold long term investment. Because bitcoin is the best cryptocurrency.
For me both eth and bitcoin though bitcoin is the best investment still I will invest in Eth. Yes holding for a long term with a great value soon. With eth still you can earn profit on holding for a long term.

I would say invest in both, I think you are safe to expect both will continue to rise. Who knows which will rise at a higher rate, so at least if you get a bit of both you will be happy with the results either way. Definitely both are awesome coins with huge investment return potential.

Stick with BTC as that is the best option you have right now since ETH still has many problems and fixes needed before it returns to its previous price at $400 and above.

My vote is both as well.  I don't see the down side of holding both at all.  The two coins you selected are both strong and will continue to rise.  Others maybe not so much.  I don't think you can go wrong with either.  But, to be safe, just go with some of each.   Smiley

It's hard to say with all the forks happening, bitcoin fork, eth fork.
I actually think both could be great investments.

With $3000 to invest, is there any advantages to either, with the expectations/hopes that they both will continue to grow?  Just trying to see what others would do, as I plan to let this initial investment sit for 5yrs minimum in a cold wallet.

Thanks ladies and gents!


BTC price is rising this week while ETH relatively stable... So I think BTC is better to invest...
But with uncertainty in the future, investing in both will be the safest way I think ~

I think that the diversification is most importam. And i prefer to buy both.

I agree with this. Diversification is key in any investment plan. No one knows what's
going to happen in the future, and keeping all your eggs in one basket is just asking
for disaster. Especially with the contentious hard forks coming up, best to spread
your money out. IMO.

Now, we're moving into a new phase where 20 eth will be equal to 1 bitcoin. The old trend was like 8-10 eth for 1 bitcoin when the ether was living its golden age 3 months ago.

I can still prefer ethereum now against bitcoin.

This is a tough call, and probably depends on what your plan is for it.  I'm one of those people that don't want to miss out on the boat, so I'll put my money in both.  Guess part of me thinks its safe.  There's opportunity cost galore with this strategy, but, if either rockets, you'll at least be onboard.

max (1 * btc, 10 * eth)

If the ETH price can be 0.1 BTc in the long term, it is already very good.

if hear about portfolio system,  i think you can use the method to investment. Don't put  All Apple in a box.
The system of not putting everything in the same investment is good but once you become good at trading that rule does not need to be followed that strictly, after all, if you see an exceptional opportunity to make money you are not going to pass on that just because you need to spread your investments, you go all in and then enjoy your big profits.
I utterly agree with you in this regard. We all know that bitcoins are the best ever digital currencies and at present are leading digital currencies for many years. No sensible person is going to buy eth when he can go for bitcoins because everyone wants big profits in short time.

and why not buy 0.5 BTC and 5 ETH ?
it would diversify your wallet and would bet on the 2 main currency  Instead of 1 !!
And with the ETH you can participate in ICO ...

Because the op is probably thinking about maximizing its profits and if he does that  then it is very likely that his profits are not going to be as good as if he choose only one coin, and since the purpose of a trader is to try to get as much profits as possible then I can understand very well why the op is unsure about which coin he is going to choose BTC or ETH.

If i have that amount i will go for bitcoin. It has better future than ETH in my opinion

Wouldn't it make sense to diversify? Sure bitcoin has growth potential, but what about that of ETH?

The utility value of Ethereum seems like it's going to be huge in the long run. I'm a n00b, so if I'm off, corrections are welcome.

Thanks!
