I suggest you diversify your portfolio. It is recommended to keep 70% of your funds to the Big 3 of crypto world: BTC, LTC, ETH. Then, put the rest of it to atleast 5-10 alts which you have made research on. 2017 has been a remarkable year for cryptocurrencies and I hope that 2018 will become a better year. There are many promising altcoins out there which could return you a good profit either for trading or long term investment.

I'm sure bitcoin will resume it's bullish moment in 2018 but it depends on what altcoins are you holding. I have few altcoin where the team behind them are going to surprise us in the first quarter of 2018 and some are even on the start of January.
There have been some promising altcoins out there which are worth investing on despite bitcoin's continuous good performance. It's on a bullish trend so bitcoin is still worth investing on. Why not invest in both? It's always good to expand your portfolio. Both have plenty of potential to grow, however it's a matter of choosing and assessing the best altcoin.

Like any others, Both would be ideal. Since the crypto world is emerging and a lot of things can happen next year. Long term or short term investments needs to be studied before engaging. We all know that Bitcoin has the brightest future of among any other cryptos but some alts do shows potential that Bitcoin has. But like what I've said a thorough study is needed, It is indeed a lot could happen but we don't know whether its good or bad.

I think both are good enough for investment but certainly have differences for the type of investment that will be done, and I agree if bitcoin would be better if done for long-term investment while altcoin course for short-term investments.

The price of altcoin depends on the price of bitcoin. If you want to invest for long time then you can choose bitcoin. Otherwise for short time investment, altcoin is the best choice. But you should choose the potential and good altcoin. Better suggestion for you to invest on both bitcoin and altcoin.

Bit coin investments are the best investment in 2018.Now the price is going to go down, but the price will rise.Alt coins will grow, but Bit coin will be the top

For me bitcoin is still the number one choice for me because up until now it is still the king in cryptocurrency still has the highest value in terms of price. But don't get me wrong I am not stating not to invest in alternative coins because there are key potential alternative coins out there which have a potential to cope up or even surpass bitcoin in rhe future like for example litecoin, ethereum.

They are both profitable by next year. Some altcoins are showing signs of growing by next year, it will depend on decision but I think diversifying is a good thing to do.

As the year 2018 has been speculates to be the year of altcoins will it be better to invest into bitcoin or altcoins ? Which one will give more return in both short term as well as long term ? I am bit puzzled whether to go for well established bitcoin , Litecoin, ethreum or Ripple, Dodge coin, Dash.
Altcoin will have good prospect in 2018. Some coins such as XRP, BCH, NXT are pumping high recent, those price was growing fast in month. I'm sure this still happen in next year. It is good to invest on those coins.

Altcoins are also profitable. There are many altcoins who performed good this year. One of them is ETH, the price movement of ETH was very stable and very profitable to its investors.
This is a huge world and just leaving your funds in one does not really seem like a good way to invest. Bitcoin may receive a huge share since it is more established, but the fact is that some other altcoins will keep doing good as well and increasing at large, so the best is just to hold some of them but definitely not for all of your capital.Diversifying across many altcoins and still keeping big portion of capital for bitcoin must be a wise idea for both naive as well for professional investors and traders.

Why can't it be both?
Same, I think choosing one is much riskier than having both bitcoin and altcoin investments. It’s better to have two option and can also lessen the probability of losses because two is better than one. But you must choose the best and promising alternative currency like litecoin or ethereum. So always take time to think to eventually get the best.
I don't think so. Altcoins are also profitable. There are many altcoins who performed good this year. One of them is ETH, the price movement of ETH was very stable and very profitable to its investors.
when people talk about altcoins and their prices they are talking about the price in BTC and altcoins have performed horribly in that front which caused their USD value also go wild with the swings.
in case of ETH nothing about it has been ever "stable", i don't know where you are looking but the swings are crazy. it started with a pump this year and went up from 0.01BTC to 0.15BTC in only 3 months (1400% in 3 months is not called "stable") and then started its downward spiral where it got dumped step by step to 0.02BTC (again 86% loss in 4 months is not called "stable") and not it is starting to rise up again with another pump.
Well those ups and down are normal. Also in bitcoin, there were those pumps and dumps no one have ever imagined. What I am saying is, although there were this fluctuations, price is still good and still going up.

That is one important thing to do when trying to invest in altcoins. The good thing about the market is that there are so many coins with great potentials and very good team which shows that they have great future and investing in coins like that really makes a lot of sense as they will grow in the long run while one makes a lot of profit on them.

The year 2017 is a golden year for Bitcoin, but it can no longer afford expectations. These reasons can be a road-breaking decision for Bitcoin in 2018. The year 2018 contains similar dangers in altcoins. But if I had to make a choice, I'd give the altcoins a chance.
December 22, 2017, 10:02:03 PM
Well, bitcoins technology is aging. It has now big transaction fees and slow processing of transactions. I guess we will have to put investments to altcoins.
December 22, 2017, 11:34:06 AM
I think, altcoin has very good potential in 2018 later. Because, this year they arguably collapsed which of course the investors will try to make its value again valuable.
December 22, 2017, 11:22:50 AM
Both is good in investing but as of know it think we should invest in alt coin cause it has a possibility to increase even to slow ,but for me in my opinion this will make a good return after. Yeah that two are different which is the disadvantage of bitcoin it can jump to a high vlaue after the correction but the disadvantage it will fall constantly. and the alt even slowly climbing for sure it will never fall hard like bitcoin. And as i see on that both, alt coin is much better to hold nowadays instead of bitcoin.
