Before i can give any consideration on altcoins, i will first invest in bitcoin and make profits from it first, if i think I've got the momentum in taking the required risk from investing in any altcoin, then i will go ahead and make my investment at my own risk, not that all of these altcoins are that bad, but we need to exercise more care in dealing with them because one can make a loss beyond what he could afford to bear when we make investment in them.

Make bitcoin the majority of your investments and just let the altcoins be the minority ,
maybe putting 60% in bitcoin and diversify that remaining 40% in other altcoins , that would
be your better option because this halving is about prioritizing bitcoin .
for how many times that we have seen this scenario and yes its still bitcoin that needs to
climb first and altcoins will follow in their time.

If you have enough money, I think choosing bitcoin is the right time. Soon the halving will occur, and it is very likely that the price of bitcoin will rise, and the price of altcoins will also follow the price increase. I think bitcoin can reach a new ATH, so when you have a lot of bitcoin at that time, I think the profits will be quite large. However, if you don't have too much money, I think choosing altcoins is the best way. But it all depends on how you see the current moment.

True. If we learned the history of previous halvings, Bitcoin price always increases significantly in the halving time. In April 20, halving is predicted to begin, we only has 1-2 days before the halving. So, it is likely the price of Bitcoin will start increasing again above $70k in the next few days. As long as Bitcoin is still below $65k, it is a good price for buying. If the price can return above $70k again, we take profits.

Well, choosing altcoins are not a bad idea. But choosing the right altcoins is easy, many of them are just pump-dump coins. Even if we want to buy altcoins, I think we must prioritize to buy Bitcoin first.

People want to become profitable from cryptocurrency. Some people want secure their fund cause it needs to take higher risk for higher gain that's why btc is good to be hold. Might be give you Small profit but safe. And altcoins are risky. altcoins will give you much profit. A multiple time higher than bitcoin and that's why people jump to altcoin investment but they should keep it in mind that altcoins can trun into shitcoin anytime. So make diversification, buy both btc and good altcoins for best deal

The decision between investing in Bitcoin (BTC) or alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) depends on various factors including individual risk tolerance, investment goals, and market analysis. But I will go for Bitcoin at this moment.

While many are going for various altcoins because of how profitable they are. Nothing beats still if you're going to invest in Bitcoin.
You don't have to be too stressful choosing what to invest if you just place down your thoughts on Bitcoin and let it do the job.
Compared to many altcoins, you have to be active at all times because they're more fluctuating than Btc.

It depends on how you see it, if I personally were asked a question between bitcoin and altcoins, then I would prefer bitcoin. But if I can do both, I will also do that, I mean I can invest in altcoins and bitcoins. But in this case I will prioritize my money for bitcoin, even if it has to be divided then bitcoin will get the most percentage of the amount of money I have to invest. It comes back to you, also sometimes how long are you ready to hold the asset that will really matter, in the short term or long term? usually i put bitcoin for long term and altcoin for short term.

If you choose Bitcoin to invest your capital, it will help you to achieve good income if you apply long term holding, because bullish season don't use to happen every year but if you can hold the Bitcoin above four years before you can release them for sale, you will definitely prefer Bitcoin over altcoin investment. Even altcoin can also bring you a good income, if you make a good choice to invest on a potential altcoins because whenever the price of Bitcoin is increasing in the cryptocurrency market other cryptocurrencies price will begin to increase to alert their holders about the bullish season. If you put altcoin for short term holding, I don't think it will allow you to make a huge amount of income because long term holding always bring massive income to holders than short term holders.

Indeed. It should depend on the individual consideration. Sure, it will be based on the risk level, goals, and the result of the current research. However, if we are considering the level of the risk, Bitcoin must be safer than most altcoins. Bitcoin price improvement is easily to understand, the cycle is also clear enough. But altcoins are not really clear, they sometimes skyrocket although it is not in the bullish season. The factor can be about the hype of the project development or listing on new exchanges. But sometimes it can also freefall because of negative issues related to the teams or the project existence. Or even in some cases, the altcoins can be dead coins if they are delisted in all exchanges. This can be caused by scam cases or the projects stopped suddenly.

I recently made some money through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, and I'm considering using it to purchase some Bitcoin. Only a tiny sum, roughly $800, is involved. What do you suggest doing right now? Purchase some Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency with a promising future.

What replacement coins would you recommend?

Apart from btc, the other altcoin I will chose for him to buy is the etherium. Because etherium is alway at the back of Bitcoin that men no desire.

Yeah for long term holdings it's best to go with bitcoin first. Bitcoin is strong currency and gives good rewards. Also the price of bitcoin is very high so buying BNB and Eth with less capital will increase their value at the right time.

Bitcoin is the ultimate, anyone considering to invest should first consider holding Bitcoin before any other Altcoins. Secondly when choosing Altcoins also considering top Altcoins that are closely associated with Bitcoin like the Ethereum and so many of them. The reason is to solify your investment knowing despite anything, it may only take a few more time to hold but you making profits is inevitable. Then you can aswell go for many other, there are many more new Altcoins that could worth investing.

so which coins are those?because when you said there are many other altcoins or new coins that can be worth investing then maybe its good if you share us one?
can you name one at least because I am also seeking to find one.

Coins basically depends on what you are doing, if you are holding long term I would say Bitcoin is the best.

No doubt that Bitcoin is the best for the long term. The meme coins that everyone is pumping right now are good for the short term and the hype will be gone too soon if they don't take advantage of that moment when they see that it's profitable. While for Bitcoin holders, we're all chill, no rushing as we know that we're going to get to the peak as the time passes by and the whole world is looking at it as if it's the gold standard of the entire crypto market.

BTC can't do 100x or 1000x anymore.

ALT can. But which one? Grin

actually, the system is not like that. maybe bitcoin can make big profits, but based on my experience, it takes a little longer.

lol Bitcoin can still make x100 or 1000? do you understand what you are posting here? your experience from where? which year? because if you have not check the market ,bitcoin price rose up to 73 thousand dollars so try to multiply that to at least x100 ? know what is the price?that is 7 million dollars so what more if w are talking x1000?

Quote

Why do altcoins still exist today, because altcoins also have the potential to make big profits, and the price is cheaper. Altcoins are very suitable for people who have small capital and want to make short-term profits. I think each coin or token will have its own advantages, only the best is bitcoin.

so what is the answer to the question?

Coins basically depends on what you are doing, if you are holding long term I would say Bitcoin is the best. And Bitcoin is better in all aspects because it has remained faithfully in the market for a long time. Thousands of investors have made huge money by investing in this Bitcoin. But you will invest in altcoin it is definitely risky because thousands of investors have lost huge money from it. So I think Bitcoin is the safest, long term holding will surely give it benefits.

The reason why one should go for Bitcoin is that we have seen over the period of time that it's best long term investment. While Bitcoin is standing firmly on it's own, the alts are entering and exiting the crypto market. There is no guarantee about future of alts, we have seen so many alts emerging with huge claims and after raising funds they are lost in darkness due to different reason. Having said that IMO Bitcoin is for long term and if you have spare cash that you can afford to lose then go for alts for short term investment.

I’m not saying that you shouldn’t invest in other altcoins but only the top ones. I was only talking about different levels of risk. If you have the money and you are willing to take such a risk, then go on with it. I was only emphasizing that it’s more risky when you’ve left Bitcoin and the top altcoins.

I agree if it is better to invest in top altcoins only. Moreover if we don't have good ability in analysis, it is better to choose safe altcoins. It is true that top altcoins also have the risks but it must be lower than random altcoins. New altcoins, shitcoins, and meme coins are the riskiest altcoins. We are better to avoid these type of altcoins if we are not experienced enough.

~~~

It seems you do not entirely get me. I am not saying we should avoid these altcoins that are risky. I’m only saying it as a reminder. If you have the money to risk, that’s totally fine. In as much as experience has a role to play, our experience can’t tell any outcome so it’s all risk anyway, and should be done by those who can afford the loss.

True, Bitcoin should the priority. But it doesn't mean we must feel afraid on crypto projects. There are still some crypto projects that can be successful although many of them are just shit projects.

By the way, if there is still a lot money in our pocket, it is much better to buy in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the most recommended coin for investment, both for a short and long term holding. Even top companies in the world, they choose Bitcoin as their investment.

If you don’t want to risk too much then Bitcoin is the best to invest in. But if you’re willing to take on more risk, you can look into altcoins. It also depends on what altcoin. The ones at the top (Ethereum, BNB, etc) aren’t that risky and will most likely give you positive returns if you are patient. If you go outside the top altcoins, you’re going into even more risk. So it all depends on how far you’re willing to risk.

Yes you are right altcoins are more risky, but investing in bitcoins is much less risky. Those who plan to make new investments decide to invest in altcoins to get huge profits. Finally they lose money by investing in different altcoins without properly analyzing the market. You are right about this, that among altcoins Ethereum BNB SOL MATIC such coins are not very risky. So don't invest in different altcoins, invest in few top altcoins along with Bitcoin.
