Bitcoin will remain the best crypto of all and this is why it's labeled as the king of crypto's.

Comparing bitcoin to altcoins is like comparing oranges to apples. Bitcoin is good with many uses as a store value, currency and payment that has been quick in confirmation.

Read this, it's cool: $300 million transferred for 4 cents in fees!

for price issues, altcoin is more affordable than bitcoin. so in this case altcoin is better. for risk issues are all equally at risk, but altcoin is greater at risk than bitcoin, bitcoin is much more reliable than altcoin.

Which one do you think is a better investment?
Bitcoin is used only for trading purposes whereas there are some altcoins which provides added features along with their purchase. For instance, there are privacy coins/tokens.

Also, there is Ydentity which is the first risk-identity token to use a scientific method of evaluation of the member’s initial condition to issue a predictive model for onboarding and underwriting.

If you are currently holding any altcoins, let me know what kind of added benefits they provide.

Comment your opinions on which are better and why.

Bitcoins and altcoins should not be compared because altcoins are created in order to compete with bitcoins and people have variety to choose in cryptocurrency because there are a lot of potential coins in the market.

if required choose between Bitcoin and altcoin then I will always choose altcoin. Because the price of bitcoin is being manipulated and bitcoin can disappear from the crypto market at any time.

I'm holding DeepOnion, a privacy altcoin that uses Tor to protect the identity of users. If you know that the former leader of privacy cryptos reached $1500 ATH, then you know that the privacy market is not a joke. Check the link in my signature and you will be impressed by how much change this project is doing compared to the rest of the market. They finished their 40-week free public airdrop and the price is still low if you want to grab some.
Deeponion is indeed a great privacy coin and according to me it has higher chance of getting listed on dark web. XMR was recently rising quite a bit due to its increased use on dark web, but It took a hit after people encountered transaction issues with it.

Deeponion may be the next privacy coin that might get listed on dark web after bitcoin and XMR. It provides high security and privacy to its users and the transactions are untraceable.

now there are many tools for investment is to expand the horizons. here you have a few people will help you need to develop your own strategy
Yeah, the idea of diversifying is to at least spread the risk, but when it comes to long term hold, I want to believe bitcoin sure do have a lot of great potential when compared to most altcoins. Just very few altcoins anyway do have a good community and less volatility as most of them are pretty much like a pump and dump based on how bitcoin movement is perceived.

Until the whole market of altcoin can stand on its own, I guess one will just have to time which market to be in based on the way bitcoin moves. many people are her suggesting to go for altcoin investments but personally I do prefer just holding my bitcoins as it give me enough returns for years of holding and more importantly with great peace of mind too.

The facts prove that Bitcoin is still the best choice, Altcoin is now more suitable for short-term trading (small-band trading), if you worry about the risk of investment is too big, then Bitcoin is the best choice!

And what to oppose here, while there is a speculative connection between bitcoin and altcoyins.
Bitcoin is the main currency for investing in altcoins. When traders want to close their positions, they sell altcoins in exchange for bitcoin. Accordingly, the demand for altcoyne fueled interest in Bitcoin. At the same time, many investors store their savings in bitcoin instead of exchanging for fiat, in order to quickly re-establish the right positions in the market when opportunities arise.
Yeah, a lot of it depends on timing anyway. There is really more like a period for altcoin and a period for bitcoin and most times, if you can really get it right, you will simply be making a lot of good decision in the market as to which to invest at a particular point in time. One thing I have learned however is to stay in fiat when bitcoin is in a downtrend, buy back bitcoin and engage alts when bitcoin is in consolidation or slow move, as altcoins get to increase hugely during this period and get out of alts immediately if bitcoin starts showing sign of further downtrend or a bull run.

I think bitcoin technically is getting outdated. Other than being the first, and everything trading to it, I cant see why it would be so great.

Altcoins have much more sophisticated algorithms, providing faster and cheaper transactions, a platform for ICOs or dApps, etc.
Some altcoins could really pass BTC. I hate having the dependance with BTC, but I guess they are trading into each other, so thatties them close.

I'd go for ETH, it will have a hard fork in December, 2018, possibly moving to PoS.
True. Bitcoin has become technically outdated and is alive in the market just because of the hype created by the people across the world and due to it being the main trading pair on most of the exchanges. Still most of the top exchanges don’t offer trading of crypto currencies with fiat currencies which has increased the dependence on bitcoin. This is also the reason that altcoins drop and rise with variation in price of BTC.
Bitcoin is really outdated and quiet not improving, but its doesn't mean that bitcoin is not great. Altcoins are still base on the price movements of bitcoin, people still love this technology and not pure of hype. Too many altcoins that makes them low in value because of too much competition. I still see bitcoin on top in the future, better to invest both in btc and good altcoins.
what are you talking about are you sleeping? bitcoin is slowly getting better and better your the only one that is outdated lightning network is the best thing can happen to bitcoin it will help users and merchant with it you can send bitcoins instantly and fees almost cost nothing.

According to me, altcoins have always been a better investment than bitcoin. Altcoins are technically much more advanced than bitcoin is. BTC has issues such as scalability, liquidity and also has high transaction fees and more confirmation time. Altcoins don’t only solve these issues, they also provide additional applications in particular fields. For example: XRP solves banking problems by providing cross border payments more liquidity and reducing transaction fees and increasing the speed.

I think doing day trading with btc is good
You can get 1-3% daily

But hodling altcoins is bad
Simply buy and sell altcoins
Sell when it pumps
Buy when it dips dipper dipped
