I think this is a pretty standard thing, because Bitcoin is now growing and finally shows at least some dynamics , investors like it and they invest in it.
But dumping alts for that? this is hard for those who have accumulated alts during early 2018 as it's price that time is still lower compared to the current price. Maybe for some who have accumulated alts in the last quarter of 2018, they can dump now and ride with btc.

Actually I think, altcoins and bitcoin will rise, the only difference is the time frame as bitcoin will certainly go first then altcoins will follow.

If they buy altcoins on the year 2018 then their alts have already grown alot by this year and there is nothing wrong on selling some  . Maybe the guy above you means that dump the alts and take profit and then invest in btc while its hot . Thats a nice strategy btw because btc is still actively fluctuates which means we can still buy when it declines and it does not take time to increase and recover until it fully pumps and start another bull  .

I'm not here to spread FUD before you start throwing accusations at me. I'm just saying though, Bitcoin is increasing in price, and it's probably a very wise idea to sell your coins and hold BTC at this point. I'm however not referring to alts like ETH, Tezos, LTC and the other solid ones out there. I'm mostly referring to the projects that have not followed the roadmap and didn't manage to deliver and let's be honest, there are plenty. Probably anything not in the top 15 in CoinMarketcap is not worth investing it (with few exceptions).

And apparently, there is some confusion within the community about price increases in CoinMarketCap and people think that everything is going up right now, which is not the case. The green numbers you're seeing in the price page don't represent much. If you click on the coin though, you'll see the price in Satoshi... that's the one that should be increasing.
I and most people know that keeping BTC is safe and will bring good returns over time. But for higher profits, we need to have high-risk investment missions. Everyday you can see there will be a few altcoins that increase from 30 to 60% and even 100% - 200%.
  We really can't ignore it in the crypto market. We need flexibility and constant strategy changes to get the highest profit.

I guess this is what investors did From the start of this month until the mid since bitcoin dominance continued to grow and many altcoins has almost didn’t move from that certain time
But today looking at the chart I think altcoins supporters turns back and re invested on their favorite coins as we can see they are now moving together as bitcoin moves ups and downs for the past weeks
this indicates the balancing of the cryptocurrencies and this is one good indication of healthy market and bull running is just around the corner I guess

This is good advice because it's completely unpredictable if the entire market will benefit as greatly as the leading two assets Bitcoin and Ethereum from any further appreciations that may occur and if you are wanting to diversify your portfolio just make sure you choose either well established projects that are top ranked as recommended or any asset that has a strong use case and a well developed strategy to achieve further adoption

we cannot say this is the reason plainly to dump the the altcoins in this situation because Bitcoin is developing right now and moreover people like to invest in it the demand only decides the price I think that's why it is not going good well.

it all depends on the altcoin that you hold if you think they have good potential for growth, then you should keep holding the altcoin and if you want to invest in bitcoin, use other capital.
but if it turns out that the altcoin you hold does not have any potential even when the altcoin pump and the coin do not experience significant movement, it is better to throw the altcoin to switch to bitcoin or maybe to other altcoins which have better growth potential.

That is what we need to do in these situations.
We are now can hold both bitcoin and altcoin because bitcoin and altcoin will increase later so it will worth if we can be patient at this moment.
As long as you can choose the right altcoin, I am sure that you can make a profit and you can have the investment in the altcoin section besides bitcoin investment.
You can do it if and only if the altcoin you are holding right now is not a proven shitcoin. In my case I hold btc and I also have 100 ZAP tokens, ever heard of that? Probably not. I got it from a signaturw campaign way back 2017, it still in my MEW but i have no longer intentions for it. I just choose to forget about it. You know what? If I had a chance to dump this shitcoin, I definitely will. However, I don't think it was listed on the exchanges that's whay it remain stuck Grin.
Choosing the right altcoin is becoming more problematic with each day that passes, I do not have any statistic about this belief I have but I will speculate that the number of altcoins created over the last weeks has gone up, scammers are seeing that more people are interested in the market and they are trying to take advantage of this opportunity which means the number of shitcoins is going up, and as an investor that only makes my job even harder, things are so bad that long time ago I decided to stop investing in new coins regardless of how good its concept was since I cannot risk being scammed.

.................................................
Investing in the Bitcoin is a wise intention and dumped altcoins have a small effect on the BTC pump. Idea is to understand the market cycle:
Simple cycle: Bitcoin pumps -> cash flow ->Altcoins. Price dumps ->  cash flow -> Altcoins In all cases altcoins don't have enough volume for protecting their value without considering the demand.
Everything has its time. The rise of bitcoin will attract new people to crypto. Later, they will begin to see potential in some altcoins. This will cause an increase in altcoins. Therefore, you can add to your chain -> new money, a small dump of BTC and ETH, the rise of altcoins.

Standard means that's really happening, well, I am not sure, the market sentiment changes from time to time.
Altcoins does not dump anymore, so there is no reason to dump it, bitcoin is rising and altcoins will follow, patience is needed to benefit on this.
Maybe it will be good to happen. Because what people do when bitcoin price get pumped is different each other. There are some people who sell their alts and take profit in fiat with bitcoin and there are people who hold it.

Why choose between bitcoin or altcoins? It is not useful to group and treat all these coins as one investment category. There are plenty of top quality projects so better to hold both bitcoin and top altcoins.
you have a wise choice. where instead of making a choice on one asset either bitcoin or altcoin. why not choose some of them. bitcoin is good for the long term, and some altcoins have good growth for trading. we can benefit from both.

Some of the developers of thses coins that are failed to follow its roadmap might encountered a problem that neededto be solve first and this is one of the reasons why the coin's price failed to go up. Others are struggling to go up because many investors and bounty hunters have sold the token after it hit the exchange. But some of these alts recovered later after their developers continues to improve the tokens. Some alts dumped temporarily but the others may delisted later due to inactivity of price.

Project based altcoins choosing idea is too old buddy. If there is good market for one coin you may invest on that coin that is fact now. Please check the best cryptocurrencies can grow more. Some of the IEO also to good to make the investment.

If you invest your funds on cheap coins which seems dumped in the market. That coin will be increasing for the marketplace.

I have many tokens that are now worthless because the developer has abandoned them and since there are worthless to me I don't think I should disagree with you in selling the few that are still have little value but I think in future are not going to survive!  I will hide to your advice and sell those coins are tokens now or convert them to some altcoins like litecoin and ethereum.  Dumping what you know are not going to make any significant progress in terms of pricing and market capitalization is the most and viable investments' decision we may make now in the face of this investments reality.
