Topic: Is Bitcoin the best Long-term Hold? - page 23. (Read 1897 times)
Well a lot of long term investor already profit a lot from bitcoin, nothing is permanent someday an alt will gonna takeover bitcoin but for now you can see that investing in bitcoin is a smart move because it is a genuine coin up until now there is no coin that surpass bitcoin of course there will always be something better that comes up but i don't see that it will gonna happen sooner.
Yes, it is. It'll still lead the market
I have been in the market for awhile, and always hear the same mantra about trading to hold more Bitcoin and not Fiat. I bought into the same mentality for a long time, but I'm changing my tune. In almost every industry, first generation leaders are replaced by competition. From Sears, Kmart, Nokia, Motorola, Yahoo, MySpace, etc. Although Bitcoin is the current crypto reserve currency, I think that its dominance is threatened by ALT coins with faster, cheaper transactions and greater scalability. What do you think? Is it smart to hold Bitcoin as a long-term investment, or are there better choices among the ALT coins like Ethereum or Litecoin?
Hold bitcoin as long term investment is smart but we all know long term is only for people with high patience and big money, do you have it? As alternative, you can choose LTC with medium term investment or ETH for short term investment/ trading. I believe you can choose any coin depend your skill and fund but for long term investment, bitcoin is the right answer.

We can see that the market in early 2018 is plummeting, bitcoin prices plunged from $ 19800 to $ 6000 last week. I think that at this point we can buy bitcoin but should not keep long f with such a hard market so you will not know how much bitcoin will recover or continue to drop sharply. So the risk is very high if you keep the bitcoin for long periods of time.

Yes Bitcoin has a good future so we can use Bitcoin as a profitable investment. Although I had experienced a price reduction, but that I think is very reasonable because the price of Bitcoin always experience fluctuations caused by various impacts. The high optimism of Bitcoin and the increasing number of Bitcoin users is the thing that will keep Bitcoin's price on the rise. 
It can be the best long term hold coin for some people, but for some other people it can be not the best because of its price. Buying it now is still a high price means that people need to spend a lot of fiat to buy bitcoin where not all people are able to do it including me.
At the moment, I will prefer on cheaper price coins but has the same chance for long term hold purpose. Coins like eth, ltc, waves, and xrp are my main choice for long term hold now.

You made a good analysis. But coins can co-exist. So maybe in the future Bitcoin will be used more as a store of value, while other cryptocoins will be used for daily transactions.
I'm not doubting bitcoin as a coin that is good to hold for a long run, unlike any other coins out there, bitcoin is one of the coins that is good to invest our money at. Bitcoin have the most big supply in the market, enough to assure that that there is no reason to have second thoughts on investing or holding bitcoin, because if you are going to buy bitcoin and you are just going to sell it whenever you want it, then you are throwing away your profits.
Ethereum is always a good choice for investment because it has clear goals that actually don't "mess up" with bitcoin goals. Meaning they are not competitors, and I think both will co-exist. As for the possibility that bitcoin is over taken by some alt, I can't say it's impossible, but it's not likely. For a blockahin to be secure it needs good hash power, and right now bitcoin has that huge advantage over everything else. As for room to improve, don't forget about the lightning network. Once it's ready to go, it will make bitcoin the fastest and more evolved crypto coin in the space, so all the short term advantage other coins have (and that are not even taking advantage of), will be gone. Again it is possible, but not likely.
Yes bitcoin still the best long term investment and as you can see from the transaction volume, bitcoin still got the highest rate, and bitcoin need to keep on updating and follow the trend, there are so many alt coin now is looking for opportunity to take bitcoin place, eth is the strongest candidate that probably can take down bitcoin
Probably bitcoin was the best for long term hold we know the characteristic of bitcoin if many years go by the value will also high, in the coming many years many investors also investing in bitcoin and bitcoin is more on profitable.
While what you said is true about older systems being replaced by newer ones, I don't think the same is necessarily true for Bitcoin, as the network is likely to be upgraded to meet new demands and compete with newer coins. Bitcoin has the first mover advantage, and is by a long shot the most widely known, used and accepted crypto. I think bitcoin and ethereum are the safest to hold in terms of volatility, but there are definitely some up and comers that will demonstrate better gains.
Holding on such a good coin for long term can surely make good profit for you. If you look at the history, its proven that bitcoin can be the best investment for long term though some may say its a bubble but If you analyze well you can confidently invest on it. Cyrptocurrency will help us to be better in the future, and bitcoin will remain the leader of all crypto I believe on this.
At the moment, Bitcoin is still the most significant value crypto on the market, but its growth rate is not equal to Ethereum. In 2017 Bitcoin's exchange rate increased by just over 1000%, Ethereum increased to nearly 8000%. So Bitcoin and Ethereum are the 2 best cryptos to invest in the long term on the cryptocurrencies market, and Ethereum is likely to overtake Bitcoin to become the biggest value cryptos!
The only reason Ethereum managed to increase that much in the last year, is solely related to the ICO hype that literally exploded. I however have to point out that this is just a temporary occurrence.If you look at the massive amount of governmental resistance there is when it comes to ICO's, which I believe is well justified, there is no way anyone being realistic and unbiased will ever hodl Ethereum for the long term.
Nothing in the world justifies Ethereum to have a value ratio of 10% against Bitcoin. That's why I don't understand how people can even buy 1 Ether at a price of anywhere near the 0.1BTC mark.

I think Bitcoin is the one of the only coins we should long term and that is because it is proven and closest to becoming usable in actual society. Sure Litecoin might be kind of close, but because everybody knows about Bitcoin it is right around the corner for implementation. I just saw a video that showed LN is active in California at a coffee shop, the revolution has begun people hang on to your Bitcoins it will probably be in your best interest.
True , Bitcoin is a well established coin that we could trust in regards to investing becssweu it actually have a developed system in terms of transactions and invesent that could give people an opportunity to gain profit by following the principles of law of price and demands or dealing with the changes of Bitcoin price.

It is possible to replace bitcoin in its spot but it will not be that easy for bitcoin is more known than altcoins.
For me in holding longterm way bitcoin is the best because bitcoin is a good pricing and safe if you hold it in longterm.the pricing of bitcoin is moving sometimes fallen but dont be risky of that because we know bitcoin will recover and give bitcoin in our life to change of life.bitcoin is ideal in longterm way investment because of price and we sure if you monator the price we can get a good profit in a exact time.

Yep,for me that right,that bitcoin is the most suitable coins used for long term investment,because its a mother of all coins,and have a great value now,even sometimes we fell the decreasing of its price,but bitcoins price sustain it flexibility towards in the crypto market.actually bitcoin is mostly a preferable coin that commonly used some investor in holding investment,because when they turn to fiat is easily to convert it into different kind of traditional currency.

ETH in my opinion.
now 1 btc = 11 eth
next year 1 eth = 11 bitcoin
now 1 btc = 11 eth
next year 1 eth = 11 bitcoin
No way. That should drive the ETH price to 100k+ if BTC held constant to make your prediction come true. That can happen only in case if BTC fell 10 times and ETH grew 10 times within a year. Very unlikely. I think that BTC and ETH are equally the best holds.
