there is always a level of risk involved when investing in cryptocurrencies. you should first try to assess that risk and accept it before trying to make any investment.

for bitcoin i'd say this risk is small even though currently there is not much movement in the price. bitcoin will always remain the biggest cryptocurrency because it is constantly improving and with all the additions it will be very far ahead of all the other altcoins. and with the adoption it has, it will grow much bigger.

altcoins including ethereum are so much riskier because of a lot of reasons. such as problems they are facing including scaling. and the thing about altcoins is that there are a lot of them. the competition is among those and since most of them such as ETH has big premines and lots of manipulations it makes their market a lot less trusted even if it is more profitable.

I have 500$ USD I want to spend in either ETH or BTC...... any suggestions at the current price and or events?

Relatively new on this so please bear with me

If I prefer bitcoin rather than ethereum, because bitcoin has a good future for investment. But if you are in doubt, you can buy both, half for bitcoin and the other half for ethereum.

I would not suggest that. Bitcoin is forever the king of crypto whatever its price is. Ethereum is also a projec that is going to be big future too but for traders this may not be the time period for a good investment. Currently ether price is high because of a upcoming Hard Fork. I would suggest people to sell ether and take advantage of this price pump than wait it out.

As for portfolios Bitcoin should be 60% or more.

Currently, there's no altcoin capable of outdoing bitcoin, not even ethereum which seems to be rising so fast in recent times and so i will always recommend bitcoin ahead of ethereum or any other altcoin out there in  this present time.

And what is there to say bitcoin is now a little cooled in the price and does not show the level that before, but for the ETH I would have taken thoroughly. So as for me it is necessary to look to the future and not to live in the past.

I can not advise you, just I da little advice if you want to get the benefits of buying all coin whose price is still low and there is going to be rising weeks, months, or years ,,

I think best bet for anyone who has a stable financial status currently should go into this for the long haul for many different reasons.

Read the white paper on both coins and pick which one you feel comfortable with.  For example if you feel very strongly about application software ethereum is probably a better choice but if your more concerned about big banks and rich folks taking advantage of the poor then maybe bitcoin is a better choice for you.

I would suggest studying the market at first, since both cryptocurrency is very volatile. While at it, you can go to bittrex or binance and study the markets. However if you opt to just HODL and wait for the increase in value, you have to read the trend whether it is going down or going up. Buy low, sell high.

I suggest you to go all in with Ether, the future is Ether, BTC is being manipulated since a long time from now and I don't see success on it for small investments.

Bitcoin or ETH, I think both of them can provide something promising in the future.
invest in both .. but my suggestion at this time ETH will be better than bitcoin to invest .. because ETH currently very incentive in doing development.

ETH or BTC I think is the same.
ETH is unstable and the price depends on BTC, but ETH is cheap, so I think ETH is better. ETH is waiting for a chance from BTC. if BTC rises, then ETH will also rise, and you will benefit.

I would like to suggest you buying Ethereum for the future purpose, day by day the importance of ETH is increasing and the price also getting higher and higher. In the meantime, you can buy a couple of ETH that will bring you to a large amount of profit.
I think ETH could be a safe and sound investment for the future purpose, besides Bitcoin, ETH also a great coin for the blockchain system.

That's what worries me rn, I believe ETH is greatly affected by the price of BTC. Currently ETH is increasing while BTC is declining, but a lot of people/threads say they normally correlate to an extent. Would that mean ETH would decrease within the next few weeks or days?

in the meantime, I do not advise you. if you look at prices and growth, of course BTC better to invest, but the price is too expensive. and ETH is good, but I see that ETH can still be controlled by bitcoin, and not yet have a good plan. so the price can not be stable.
but today, maybe ETH is easier and cheaper to be an investment.

If I personally I prefer to invest in ETH, because the price is still relatively cheap compared to bitcoin, and we still can get multiple benefits, it's just my advice.

ETH is the better deal and it's price does not spike as much as BTC plus they offer a service to
other alt coins and that makes the money from gas

Ripple i think is the safe long term bet because they will ride out government regulations much
better than anyone else and no one can fork ripple can they now !

Segwit2x goes live today so I wonder how well that will do

I'm gonna stay away from the majority of altcoins (other than the bigger name ones), as a lot of altcoins can be considered pump and dumps
That is true there are a majority of coins where the volume doesn't make sense . But if you know what you are doing you can have some big gains in low marketcap altcoin.
