.... which one you would like to choose if u only have the choice between BTC and IOTA?
BTC is always my first choice whenever I'm buying cryptocurrency, so for sure I'm going to for cryptocurrency first. Judging from the current price of bitcoin, I will buy 1 btc and then use the remaining money out of the $10,000 to invest in IOTA, but not really all of them will be going into IOTA, I will just use part of the remaining money to buy IOTA and other good altcoins like ethereum, neo, xrp and xmr.

When I hear cryptocurrency, Bitcoin comes to my mind first before I think about all others. It is therefore automatic that I will invest in bitcoin before any other altcoin. Even though I believe in diversifying my investments, bitcoin is always of higher priority,
Same here man. This is purely because Bitcoin is leading the market and is equally profitable for the investors provided the initial cost of investment is down but this is just a simple strategy and not a rule. So yeah, a capital as big as this one would be great in enabling you make some good money in crypto if you speculate in the best coin available out there in the market which I think is Bitcoin, ETH and Binance Coin. 
In this case, I will choose bitcoin for now, as it can be easily used in various fields as a payment system and has many more users, while it is a more reliable investment with a large capitalization

bitcoin is always more advanced than other coins. so, it's common for bitcoin to be owned in a very large number for crypto users. $ 10k is a lot, investing in one thing will certainly be risky. so, I feel that having 5 coins, among the 10 best coins in the coinmarket, will be a pretty good savings for the future. .... which one you would like to choose if u only have the choice between BTC and IOTA?
i will prefer BTC here for long run holding.IOTA is good to but btc is first ever created crypto so i will go with btc.
It all depends on your risk tolerance. I like to gamble on lower tier coins every now and then but I only use a small amount of money. looking back at the historical charts you an see how fast some of these coins can move. They can go 100x in a few days which is pretty crazy.
Lower tier coins in this market are a great opportunity for you to make a profit but the risk will be huge if you don't have a clear appreciation of that coin. I think this market always has a lot of surprises and it can easily make us get rich very quickly in just one day but can also take away all your assets in just a few hours so if If you choose the right time to invest then good for you. Everyone wants to earn a profit of 1000% in this market but to do that, you need to have the right consideration and make many suitable choices for your portfolio.

Well if you have a big amount like $10k then instead of putting it all in one basket why not split it between whatever options you have got.What matter is the split percentage. I would split it into 4:1 ratio where 4 would obviously be for BTC.
Bitcoin should always be the first preference if the amount you are gonna invest is greater than $1000.

I agree with you man, its all about how much risk can someone handle. With $10k I would buy some bitcoins, I wouldnt miss opportunity to buy iota too (thats from op choices, btc or iota), and some other good coins too. When you look it from other side it would be more risky to invest in just one coin, in some way you are lowering the risk if you invest in more than one coin. I`m sure that I would diversify, I would split that $10k on more places, on more coins, probably between 3-10 nice investments, in some more in some less.

First of all, I would think, if it is really necessary to invest all the sum in the cryptocurrency. probably, the smallest business will bring higher returns than the profit from holding cryptocurrencies.
No idea what you mean by that and what you are trying to point out by small businesses. In fact the small ICOs if you are referring to those have all gone down with their bigger counterparts as soon as the bear market hit. They are no exception to the bleeding out effect of bitcoin. So the best thing to put your money in would be bitcoin at this moment. Any other shitcoin out there is going to be a waste of time and money. Although you may have some alts being held and not having any worthy price to sell at. All you can do is wait and watch for those. You cannot change those mistaken decisions but you are definitely prevent future ones.

Is that the only choice we have?
anyway, I'd rather choose bitcoin for sure. Since I do have $10,000 worth of capital then I would rather choose it definitely. The current price last month was $3000 so if given a chance and that history repeats itself then I can buy 3 bitcoin with that amount. But this time, we have to be practical and we should divide our capital in different potential coins.First of all, I would think, if it is really necessary to invest all the sum in the cryptocurrency. probably, the smallest business will bring higher returns than the profit from holding cryptocurrencies.
What kind of question is that? Of course the majority would go for btc since it is more trustworthy than the other one. But anyway, each one of us got their own preference and own reasons why they will pick a certain coin and I respect that 
.
However, preference is not the main criteria of picking a coin so you should be very careful because we are all talking about money here. My advise is to stick with btc or eth only if you are a small investor (the ones who just go for hodling) because you can't handle the pressure of unstable market for sure so to keep safe you must buy the most stable coins in the market. If you are daytrader then I don't see any problem on the coin which you will pick assuming that it wasn't a shitcoin; picking IOTA? That's not a problem knowing the fact that it is the Rank 17 coin based on CMC.

Why not half BTC and half IOTA？ Tough I prefer 8:2…
Honestly I won't pick half on both the cryptos mostly it will bitcoin like you said and remaining funds will goes to altcoins which includes many coins.You can split you funds again into several altcoins, moreover there are still many potential altcoins right
IOTA is not a coin to be compared with bitcoin and even we don't have a competitor yet for bitcoin with the thousands of cryptos available.
99% of the people who know what is bitcoin will pick it for now.
Yes, I agree that most of the peoples would choose bitcoins as they might have already heard a lot about bitcoins and might have seen some practical examples who invested into bitcoins in the late 2009 to 2014. But IOTA is also a strong coin which is not yet comparable with bitcoins seeing and comparing their both's volume, market cap, etc. 99% of the people who know what is bitcoin will pick it for now.
Even there is no such coin which could beat bitcoins at least for now. Maybe in next few years, there will be hundreds of coins crossing $10,000 so we can't know the future but we are sure about the present. Those who know the benefits and markets of IOTA, would buy those and rest may go for bitcoins with the investment in pocket.
.... which one you would like to choose if u only have the choice between BTC and IOTA?
If I have $10 USD with me to invest into BTC/IOTA markets then I would prefer splitting my balance and try investing for long term as well as short term. I would choose BTC for long term investment whereas IOTA for short term to make some instant profits out of the graph. There are indeed a lot more options to invest into the cryptocurrencies which may include ETH, Waves, etc which also has the potential to make higher volume markets ahead. Depending on the market growth, I would invest into some of these coins to hold for some interval adjusting the stop-loss each week. Investment in any coin can give us profit, but just we need to know when to buy.

well, maybe i will choose bitcoin for that. even now I'm a little sorry to have a little bitcoin, and focus on ETH. maybe the price of bitcoin could be higher this year. owning $ 10k in the form of bitcoin today will be an extraordinary thing. 99% of the people who know what is bitcoin will pick it for now.
