Rule of thumb 10% of portfolio per coin

And where did this rule of thumb come from? Not sure most people would agree with that?

Anyhow, as people have said, risk only what you're willing to lose, if it comes to that. It's easy to make mistakes in crypto, so you have to accept the fact that your money might be lost...but it could also multiple.

Good luck whatever you decide to do.

When I started I picked up the 3 coins on Coinbase. Having a little skin in the game forced me to feel more invested and caused me to do more research into alts. From then I started picking up alts but still bought steady amounts of btc. I think the amount I started with was about $3k but that was when the coins were much cheaper.

First crypto index traded as a token!

Best amount to risk for a beginner, depends on the beginner. If he or she has enough Money, then a few thousands of dollars would do. If the beginner has less to spend, a minimum amount of $500 to $1000 would be recommendable. Start with Ethereum, Cardano, Litecoin Monero and Dash.

I would suggest placing a certain percentage into cryptos based on your investments/savings. Also what your OK with loosing as the 'alt' coins/tokens are not only new, but volatile. Most conservative investors only place something like 5% into a specific asset class or sector.

Based on the country that your in, it may make a difference regarding the exchange you choose. Example is in the USA, you cannot use Bitfinex as they have stopped Americans from using that exchange.

I first started with a few hundred dollars. Then add more to it as I feel more comfortable.

Invest only as much as you is not sorry to lose. Which coin invests depends on whether you want to invest short or for a long time. Investing for a short time implies a high risk, but also a big gain. One such coin is the Flash coin https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/flash/ that exploded in the last days. Investing for a long time could be in Bitcore https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcore/

I personally started with just a few hundred dollars. With that, I traded it around and tried to find trends in the market and basically learn how to do basic trading. Once I felt comfortable with that I put in more and more. That way once you have a lot of money in different coins you will feel comfortable.
