Only exchange rate matters. Here is the example about converting of fiat into crypto. Sometimes I make a chain with 3-5 exchanges to buy crypto with fiat at the best rate. It's very strange but sometimes it could reduce the fees from 6-8% down to 1-3%. So when you want to buy alts with BTC or ETH take a look at their price at the moment Wink

For the most part, Bitcoin is much valuable than ETH so if you have to spend something and while you have ETH, use your ETH and not BTC. Its price is appreciating almost every week, why waste the opportunity to end up having more money than having ETH which growth isn't as consistent as BTC. It can double its value in a month which is why the possibility of the predictions BTC being $10K already happened.

I think it's better to buy and hold bitcoin and if you saw a promising project and wanted to take part in it, then there is nothing difficult in selling a bit of bitcoin and buying an etherium. In addition, on all exchanges, there are many more trading pairs with bitcoin than with the etherium!

Can someone give a thorough explanation as to the difference in buying altcoins with bitcoin, etherium, tether, ltc etc.

I have been purchasing alts with bitcoin on btx.  However I have read a few posts on reddit saying you should use ethereum to make purchases and NOT bitcoin.

Can someone explain the differences in purchasing with different methods?

pros and cons, if there are any?

If there is cost implications?

Your valuble information wil be greatly appreciated

I think there is not any difference in using anyone of them to buy altcoin. But we have to keep the price of it in mind as if the price of ethereum is stable and the price of bitcoin is increasing then we have not to use bitcoin and have to use ethereum as bitcoin will give us the profit.

While if you are talking about the investment in ICO then yes in many ICO you can only invest through ethereum as it is the sale code setting in the ethereum smart contract.

For now its better to buy with bitcoin. Etehreum price is at dips against bitcoin so selling bitcoin and buying altcoins is more profitable.
Also we have to keep an eye for futures trading news on december 10. This will be a big affect on bitcoin price.

t is better to buy altcoins and then using an exchanger come to Ethereum and Bitcoin. If you buy BTC and ETH directly you will pay more commissions into it. Make a chain of operations, keep in your wallet the coins from top-20 and some BTC.

I'd prefer to buy alts with bitcoin because, I got buy any coin with them on polo, ether has somo limitations while trading with it and you'r not able to purchase any coin desired.

It's better to buy alternative coins with BTC because majority of the site prefer BTC as the main instrument for buying and flucting is least.

I don't know what the reason for that could be other than finding a better price point. If there are multiple listings then you can perhaps find a better price through a ETH, LTC, DOGE, or any other pairing. However the volume on these pairings is generally much less significant and you may have to wait a while as the books are also generally much further apart. Though the point remains you can get a better price if you are patient and willing to wait for your coins, but if you need them right away this strategy won't work for you.
