if you want to invest long term I suggest to invest in BITCOIN only because seen from year price year last year bitcoin price always increase sharply
Yeah the simple answer same as you is bitcoin is the best investment right now the reason is that profit of bitcoin is higher than the risk in it, but in altcoins you will meet the risk at the beginning and it will remain the same throughout the investing session, bitcoin has high potential to increase and the history of bitcoin is enough to make the difference between bitcoin and altcoins, bitcoin has strong background history while other altcoins are just invented with poor history.

Altcoins are taking a hit and expected to continue for a while. There are some trends you could take advantage of though due to their higher volatility

Bitcoin is always an best when it comes to an investment and you can make really good money in long term and if you are looking to make good profits in short term then there are many altcoins available that can help you in making regular profits but make sure that you don't invest in any shit coins hoping to pump it and better choice would be to invest in reliable coin like ethereum to make sure shot profits in future.
If someone tells you what to invest, then I would say bitcoin. Because, bitcoin is good for long-term investment. It is easy to invest, less risk and profit more.Like the bitcoin, altcoin does not offer such facilities. So, I think it is better to invest Bitcoin than the altcoin.
I will totally concur to this point and will add to the given info that right now the price of the bitcoin is not that high that it will be a problem for the investor and if you pick up any survey or the research or the prediction on the basis of the market analysis, you will come to know that bitcoin is going to be very profitable in the coming days and just like the old prediction, the price has crossed the $10k threshold and before mid April, it is going to cross the $15 k value. This year will be very interesting and with lot of surprises to the bitcoin investors. 
i think in this crypto market, investing in bitcoin and both altcoins will be the most productive way to earn profit, bitcoin is being used and well known to all investors around the world, so investing bitcoin for long term rightnow is a good idea now. but we should invest in altcoins like ETH or new altcoins too, we can earn profit from trading them for short term to maximize our profit.
If I planned on buying some coins today. Which would be the better long term investment, and why?
Do not afraid to invest your money on bitcoins. Most of the people becane rich because they invested their money in bitcoin. You should overcome your fear of investing your money. If you want to become successful person, then you should be a risk taker. 
Ofcourse bitcoin is the best when it comes to investment. Because for me bitcoin is the best crypto. But there are so many very good altcoins that arw coming out in the market. So try to invest on some altcoins as well.
Yeah that's right, Also for me I will choose Bitcoin for the long term investment because it is really increased price every years, and are Altcoin that are good as well you need to choose which is the right one for a short term invesment.

While I will never fully exit BTC, it seems like the altcoin market is hot right now. Primed for a pump as the sentiment is showing us, and in that sense altcoins stand to gain more currently than BTC does imho.

the best investment for now is ethereum, because ethereum prices are so stable so if you invest in ethereum you will get a stable profit ...but if you want to get big profit but high risk then investment in bitcoin ..
Invest in the altcoin because I think this would be a smart choice as there are so many altcoin that can rise while bitcoin is pumping. Does this mean you can get double profit from altcoin and bitcoin!
Getting you involved in this bitcoin and altcoins are best. Now a days, as the altcoins are growing and have better buying prices that are somehow affordable. Still like you have said, holding is better, I will go against this. Reason is, holding altcoins are not good because altcoins market is not that much rehabilitative as bitcoin. Once it goes down, it is not likely to come up against soon.I got your point when you say altcoin price is more affordable and its true.
I have not much fund so i choose to hold or trade altcoin which has small or low value in the market.
Altcoins 
Ofcourse bitcoin is the best when it comes to investment. Because for me bitcoin is the best crypto. But there are so many very good altcoins that arw coming out in the market. So try to invest on some altcoins as well.

Altcoins are good for short term investment but for long term investment, Bitcoin is the best option. So make your choice

By the way the question, there are pools by analogy satoshi pie, heard about the project top7ICO (there like the first page of cmc in the pool))). I wonder when the exchanges will offer something similar, similar to ETF, only in the crypt? IMHO idea so sweet

You can see that today's market is volatile and extremely volatile. Bitcoin prices rose sharply to $ 11,200, and immediately plunged and plummeted. I think that at the moment you should consider carefully before investing in any project. You can trade btcoin because it is the most valuable co, bitcoin is down you can wait to buy bitcoin at the best price. 
Bitcoin is one and only best in investment for long term. I prefer to invest your money in bitcoin, altcoins is better thou but much better to invest in bitcoin. We already know that trading has two way, its either increase or decrease. Buy bitcoin in deep price and soon you will have your profit.
Which is true, bitcoin already got a huge numbers of supports and if dealing with long term investment its really a good one to choose, while in terms of alts their are also some project that you can consider, basing from the stats you can buy those top 10 alts and hold it until you gain a good result, thenif you are also eyeing with ico's where you can hold for long term as well then try to read more about the campaign that I'm wearing right now, just make
it sure to have deep knowledge about investment that you choose from.
if Bitcoin at the moment is to go up - buy Bitcoin as Altcoins bloodbath is about to begin. I don't see it happening tho, prolly it will go more down.
