Usually they recommend you to diversify your investment, so you avoid losses.

But as a real approach, having $1.5k, would you invest in how many cryptocurrencies ?

What if I invest little by little, only in Bitcoin, would that work as well ?

Of course if you are starting, you should put all of your investment in only one cryptocurrency unless if you will put above 2k USD but in my case, I will focus only in one cryptocurrency and later on, if I will have a chance to gain profits, I will diversify my portfolio and select cryptocurrency based on my perception.

If you plan for long term investment bitcoin is the best one. If you can endure to wait patiently of bitcoin increase more than 15k and I don't know when will it happen maybe soon or later. If you you applied diversity then choose the good coins that suit your taste for much better result at the end. It is good strategy.

i recommend choosing coin that has top ranking, because it will give us big chance to profit. besides that i think it will be safe if to invest long term. and do not forget some of it remain invested in bitcoin

For 1500k I will invest in bitcoin, ethereum and the other altcoin. Maybe 40% in bitcoin 30% in ethereum and 30% in the other altcoin.

Yes why not, if you just want to focus on investing in one coin it doesn't matter. But it is very in pity if wasting other opportunities to try in the coin is still cheap and potentially, because the pump will always exist. However I suggest if just choosing one coin trading is better than investment.

If you want to have an assurance, then you ought to invest in bitcoin as it is the most trusted coin out there. It is better to invest on it all in if ever you see a great opportunity like a lower price rather than slowly putting money to it waiting for a much lower price. You never know how the price will go so there is a chance that you might wait a while if the price recovered and increases for a long time.

I think you got it wrong. Diversification should be done in different area of investments. So let's say you have bitcoin or altcoins, to be able to diversify, you need to invest on stocks, or real estate of even gold. That is what we call diversification. It doesn't necessary mean you have to diversify with other crypto because we all know that every altcoins has correlation with bitcoin price movement.

If you permit me, I'll say you are right and still not right at thesame time, as diversification can still be done within the same area of investment as long as you are distributing your funds into DIFFERENT assets/companies/projects. It all still balls down to diversifying your funds.

Actually for investment purpose and long term hold, I personally prefer bitcoin. I may be a bit bias as a trader, but I always feel alts are just there for the short term gains and nothing more which requires timing and you really do not want to be holding them for long after the huge spike in their value as a little pull back in bitcoin or bull run in bitcoin brings them back to where they all started from.

Some though have done hugely well over the years anyway such as verge, omg and likes, so if I am to distribute as just a long term investor, $1000 in bitcoin, and $500 in 5 other solid altcoins with great products to create demand for them in future (this will be based on your own findings).

I'd put it in two different coins - (1) Bitcoin and (2) Ripple. Go 50/50 in each, so $750 in Bitcoin and $750 in Ripple. They have two different utilities in the market and each is at a very different stage in its lifecycle.

This is also a wise option if you want to keep the entire investment in Bitcoin. Choose a regular interval - weekly, monthly, quarterly - and a duration for which you want to spread the investment. Make the deposits equal and let the regular intervals average in your cost over the entire term of your investment process.

You can invest only in bitcoin if you don't want to invest in other cryptocurrencies. If given the choice, I would just invest in bitcoin as I am almost sure that it will exist for a long time compared to other cryptocurrencies that are only use for speculation purposes. There are other coins that has a real purpose of solving the current problems with regards to transactions to make it more efficient and effective but bitcoin has been the very first cryptocurrency and it retain its position because many still believe in it. If you want to buy then buy in portions or what is known as cost averaging so that you can minimize the risk and losses.

Yes, it will help in reducing your losses. But diversifying in different asset classes means like, in stocks, gold, bonds and in other places will be much better than just investing in cryptos. Because when bitcoin goes down then most of the other coins also will go down.

But some cases it is better to buy few different coins than just investing in one single coin.

It depends on the individual because some people this 1.5K is quite a lot of money and for some people, it is a small amount then they may prefer to invest all in a single coin.

For you, if it is big amount then choose three to four good coins to invest.

This is the best method to invest because we can't predict any coin bottom price so buy in small quantity whenever you think the price is good for you.

We all expect the bull market to come sooner, and the encryption of a diversified portfolio of money can manage risk properly.

I would suggest investing 3--4 COINS. For example; BTC ETH EOS.

I would highly recommend avoiding alt-coins. And it would not spread the risk to buy multiple alts since they are all based on the same technology. Want to diversify? Buy some bitcoin, gold, real estate, stocks, etc.

Well, diversify is one of the good strategy that investors can do because it has the fact that it can really secure your investment. You can diversify your in investment in maybe 3-4 different coins with has a very good potential in the market. It is really important that you need to analyzing first the different kind of coins that are willing to invest for so it it will gives you satisfied and comfortable to invest into it. However, stick to bitcoin investment is good and really sure profitable also so you make your own choice because in the end you are the only one whose making the final decision so good luck.

you can choose to risk your money by investing in altcoins, which means you must be willing to lose almost all your money because altcoins can even fall to more than 80% of your value if something goes wrong, or you choose to invest in bitcoin for long-term, which will give you more security and comfort in the future. Diversify is very good, but you run a lot of risks if you invest in projects that are not good, my advice is that you just stay in bitcoin
