Taking a decision to Invest either Bitcoin or altcoins depends on your risk tolerance, investment goals, and market research. Bitcoin is generally considered more stable  more beneficial to investors, while altcoins can offer higher potential returns but come with increased risk. Diversifying your portfolio may be a prudent strategy. It's crucial to conduct thorough research and, if needed, consult with a financial advisor before making any investment decision.
I agree with you investment in bitcoin or altcoins it is totally depend on a person risk tolerance. But since we believe in Bitcoin's 4-year cycle and it has shown good results several times in the past, next year is a golden time to invest in Bitcoin. So at that time if you invest in bitcoin instead of investing in altcoin, the profit will be much higher and the investment will also be safe. I'm not giving financial advice but I'm trying to remind you of the history of Bitcoin in the past. I would say everyone should decide according to his investment ability and risk taking ability

Asking about what coin to invest in by op need concrete personal answers. It all depends how the trust and the level of risk op is ready to invest in Bitcoin market or the altcoins market. To make money from the market one need to exercise patient and invest on projects our eyes can reach..since there are thousands of cryptocurrency projects. Bitcoin is the solid one with safety compared to others projects that was created to make profits for the project team. We don't need to invest in any project we see but those ones that have good liquidity.

This is a way to optimize your Bitcoin investment without selling any of the Bitcoin you're holding. It's simply leveraging with an acceptable level of risk at a certain point in time to maximize profits with the growth of Altcoins during the season. And when there's a profit with Altcoins, we convert that profit back into Bitcoin, increasing the quantity. If done well, the amount you earn in a bull run season can be significant compared to just holding Bitcoin from start to finish.
This does look quite good and is also very suitable for anyone to do if they want to increase the amount of Bitcoin investment at a certain moment, such as in the current example. However, I also think that the profits from trading in the market can also be used to convert into Bitcoin if we want additional Bitcoin without having to think about additional capital at a different time. I also like to trade with certain altcoins so I often convert the profits into Bitcoin so that the amount of Bitcoin can continue to increase in my savings.

I will advice you to go into bitcoin instead of altcoins investment so therefore I have to in other ways  understand the difference between altcoins and bitcoin, altcoins does not have the courage and potential bitcoin has and that is why everyone is investing in bitcoin instead of altcoins, when you come in terms of potential is bitcoin when you xome interms of coins that survive bullrun and bullish is same bitcoin who survive all this things without all this kind of things, so therefore, you can neither invest in bitcoin or you invest in altcoins depends your plan's

This plan sounds great, buy altcoins and profit from altcoins to accumulate more bitcoins. But, can anyone do that? I mean, once we invest in altcoins, we will be attracted by its huge and quick profits. When we profit from altcoins, will we stick with bitcoin or will we convert all our bitcoins into altcoins in the hope of making more profits? I have seen many people with similar plans but when they make profits from Altcoin they forget the original plan, profit is always what blinds us so be careful with this plan.

I also don't completely hate people who invest in altcoins but be careful of the temptation it creates and if we are not vigilant, it will destroy our investment plans because they are too risky.

Indeed it is scary if you are investing in new projects but if you are investing in ETH, you are going to have peace of mind. But yes, $30k is quite huge enough to put into a risky investment even though we know that ETH can be trusted or ideal for long-term investment. If ever I have that amount in hand, I will put some amount to other form in investment or start a business as in the case that we lose in crypto, we still have other way to recover those losses from other investment and income resources.
Even with ETH, I am not that convinced that it will make me not regret investing, bitcoin has not failed me so far so I will just put all my money on it no matter what because I am better off profiting in bitcoin as much as possible than splitting my investments in different altcoins that are full of uncertainties. Maybe other users have the heart to be able to do that but not me, the lesson learned is just too expensive for me. If I had that amount, I would probably just allocate 1k USD in ETH only and then try to wait for bitcoin to go down again so I can get a good value out of the 29k that is left or what is going to be left when I spend some money for the stuff that I want to buy for a long time now.

30k is a scary amount to invest in altcoins even if you know that an altcoin boom is coming in the horizon, I've learned my lesson about altcoins last season so I don't want to repeat the same mistakes, I'm better off just waiting for my bitcoin to grow and hopefully sell it at a favorable price and then hopefully get in quickly to it. OP's plan is feasible and attractive to follow but that will be the possible scenario if all the stuff that OP mentioned exactly happened and we know that the cryptocurrency market is a volatile market and you will never know what's going to happen even if you are good at market analysis.
Investing in altcoins shouldn't be done with much money but only the amount that you can afford to loss. Altcoins can be hype by the dev and the price will pump 100X and before you know it,you that invested at that time becomes the loser because in no time,it will turn to zero,leaving you frustrated.
This I can agree and not just with altcoins, everyone is encouraged to do the same with bitcoin, just invest what you can afford to lose. This advice is a timeless one because it is the truth and it is making sure that you are not going to go overboard with your investing journey and at the same time makes you balance your needs for investing to save for the future and having some money to spend for the present. That is why I do not go for altcoins now, the potential of it being a rugpull is just too much and it sucks that you are going to be the one that will be gullible to give them your money.

When it comes to investment I believe everyone have a responsibility of doing their personal research before buying any coin. It’s important you check the coin’s previous history and trend to determine what to do and also check the utility of such token in order to be sure you’re in a safe place.

Sometimes history don't repeat itself because previously people got benefit from dogecoin when it pumped but now the price is still lower and there is no information then when will it come higher again. Bitcoin always proves to be beneficial coins as compared to altcoins so without investigation one can believe that bitcoin will make their wishes true but if we leave bitcoin and put our trust on altcoins then it is possible that we will face huge losses in future.

From utility of a token one can decide about the importance of coins also check the market cap so you will easily find about good altcoins. In Altcoins if someone buy now ethereum then positive effects of halving can also be a reason for boosting value of ethereum and other important alt coins.

Altcoins is more volatile that Bitcoin, and so even though in the last bull run or even if we can go back previously like in 2017, there are a lot of altcoin that gain more than Bitcoin in terms of percentage to their last all time high. But then again, it's altcoin so it's hard to predict and the risk is very high. Like you said, Doge or even Shiba in the last bull run, we didn't expect that they are going to be the altcoin hype and craze and maybe a lot of us here make some good profits out out if. But it's hard to time that market because as it could be just a pump and dump and if you are late then you could be trap.

So for the majority who have been in the market long enough, then Bitcoin could be their majority holding, at least you have nothing to worry and can sleep at night and waking up tomorrow with a good increase and profit, simple as that.

Risking is part of crypto journey as from day 1 we already have that situation and we already accept that , yes I am also in diversification but adjusting or borrowing to buy altcoin will never be in my option , instead I will continue my holding .
Diversification can be applied with a note that the selection of altcoins and main coins must be appropriate, must be top altcoins, and have good development.
Don't just diversify based on rumors and other people's advice without doing your own research.

But when someone suggests holding ETH it becomes the best altcoin choice.
and Diverisifkasi adjusts to the capital you have, but if you take out a loan for altcoin investment, it will be more risky, because crypto is very volatile while the loan will continue to run along with the interest charged.


The cryptocurrency market is very risky so the idea of borrowing money to invest is not a wise idea even if we invest in bitcoin, not altcoins. But it depends on each person, I think if you have a stable source of income and can still afford to repay those loans even if the investment fails, then borrowing money can be considered, but this really should not be recommended.

As for investing in bitcoin or altcoin, I think it depends on each person's taste. If someone likes safety then they should obviously choose bitcoin but if someone is willing to take risks in search of high returns then they can think of altcoins. The most important thing is that anyone who wants to invest should do their own research before investing instead of asking others for their opinions. Investing based on other people's advice will make us lose money even if it is bitcoin because we will never be able to hold bitcoin for long if we know nothing about it.

I don't want to give advice on whether to invest in bitcoin or altcoins, I just want to advise anyone thinking about investing in cryptocurrency to do their research first.
Taking out a loan to invest in crypto? You are correct; that is putting things in danger. Even if you have a steady income, the chance is still very high. Being on a catwalk without a net is like that. You might get to the other side, but what if you make one mistake? You go down.

If you have a stable income, I think you can consider borrowing capital to invest but it must be within your financial capacity. Sometimes we need to take risks to succeed, we need to step out of our comfort zone if we want to achieve things we have never had before. Every success requires trade-offs and we need to accept that. If you are always afraid and do not dare to face challenges, then do not expect to succeed.

The easy way was just to invest in Both altcoins and Bitcoin, It wouldn't really be wrong to put your investment only in Bitcoin since it's always recommended to not put all your eggs in one basket. I mean for sure there are some that are going to prefer only investing in Bitcoin but it is still not a bad idea to invest in altcoins for sure.

Invest a huge percentage on Bitcoin for sure and then invest in altcoins as well with only a lower percentage, it is still a very risky investment but certainly worth the risk since you could easily earn 10x- 100x in these altcoins easily depending on your investment, it is high risk and high reward investment considering it was for sure going to be worth it, probably just dont put it on leverage investment, there is a high chance that all altcoins might skyrocket most of the time in the past Bullrun, as long as you are willing to hold it might worth it in the long run. Just dont invest on very risky altcoins that doesnt have any use like shitcoins, probably just stick on the top 30 altcoins is going to be a high chance of profit.

From my personal experience I think that.
60% to 70% of your investment should be in bitcoin.
And my comment about Altcoins is the remaining 30% to 40%
The whole half from rest 30% to 40% you can invest in Ethereum and the rest you can invest in others good altcoins for a short period of time.

Example: 100% of
70% Bitcoin
15% Ethereum
The remaining 15% are others more altcoins according to your analysis.

And picking between Bitcoin and altcoins is like picking between a rough sea and a storm—each is dangerous in its own way. Bitcoin is like a rough sea: you can kind of predict it, but its still rough. Other coins? They are the storm. High risk, high return possible.

Heres the thing, though: conducting research is not only wise, but essential. You're going to sea without it. Taking other people's advice? Thats giving the wheel to someone else. The more you know, the stronger you are, especially in the crypto sea. Do your study first before you jump in

Looks like this a personal preference type of question, doesn't really feel like it should be something that some other person could tell you, I agree with that. I mean I personally will do like %50+ bitcoin, I know that much, I will have some other coins too, but bitcoin is a must for me, in fact if I turn to %100 bitcoin right now, I would not really feel bad about it neither (maybe I will) and I think that is the most epic approach to crypto and the bull run. HOwever, that is totally me, I do not think that I would tell anyone what to do, I would just let those people end up making their decision, and I would not tell you to go get bitcoin or altcoin neither, that just doesn't make sense.

It doesn't make sense for anyone to tell someone which altcoin they should buy. Everyone should make their own choice on this matter. There are many people who do what others say and lose money. There are people on X who have thousands of followers and are deceiving people for publicity. People need to research and be informed, otherwise they are investing in other people's ideas and end up feeling sad.

It is very easy to find a lot of the information you are looking for on the internet. Before trusting anyone regarding investment, a person needs to work to become informed himself.

I tell the person who wants to invest that I trust Bitcoin in my investment and that it does not cause any losses in the long run, but I generally avoid saying anything about any altcoin. I leave all the decision to him.

Never have all your eggs in one basket. So with this reference, I can say you should prefer to keep your money invested in some solid projects including Bitcoin. Ethereum is a safe choice.
You need to your own research for this. Just do not invest for 10x or stuff, invest in the technology or the target of the project. See how you can use the coin, and what the devs are working on.
Just do not invest in any random project which promises and does nothing.

This is the same reason why I actually chose to split my investment. I have some in BTC while I also have another one in BGB. I’m sure the two are going to yield better, base on their performance I believe I have nothing to bother about.

Many people in the crypto market are still uncertain about which type of asset to hold onto for the upcoming growth cycle of the crypto market: Bitcoin or Altcoins. Additionally, they're wondering when to catch the bottom or exit at the peak. As we know from previous cycles, Bitcoin tends to rise first, attracting the influx of funds, followed by new funds flowing into Altcoins. However, holding onto Bitcoin might not yield substantial profits, and determining the right time to switch from Bitcoin to Altcoin for maximizing gains during the growth season remains a challenge.

Now, I'd like to share a method that I have been using and find quite effective, hoping to share it and receive feedback from you all:

  • First, I establish from the outset that BTC is solely for holding, not for selling. When BTC surpasses its peak and an Altcoin wave is on the horizon, all you need to do is put your BTC into cross margin and borrow USDT (not exceeding 50% of your capital) to invest in Altcoins.
  • For instance, if you currently have $26,000, you could invest in 1 BTC and hold it from now on. Hold it until BTC surpasses its previous peak of $69,000, which would mean your asset is now worth $69,000. At this point, place the value of 1 BTC into Cross Margin and borrow $30,000 to invest in Altcoins. Borrow only $30,000 or even less, not more. This way, you can continue holding onto that 1 BTC as it climbs to $100,000 or $150,000, while also having $30,000 to invest in Altcoins. With the $30,000 borrowed, smart investment in Altcoins can potentially turn your initial asset into $300,000. You could sell the original 1 BTC that you held onto for $100,000 or $150,000. The combined profit from BTC and Altcoins could amount to around $400,000 - $450,000. After repaying the $30,000 borrowed from the exchange, you'd be left with $370,000 - $420,000.

In summary: Starting with an initial investment of $26,000, you could potentially make $370,000 - $420,000.

In previous cycles, I often found myself struggling to find the answer to the question of "when to sell BTC and switch to Altcoins." BTC is meant to be held, not sold, and even more importantly, never sold for Altcoins. Simply hold onto BTC and when there's an Altcoin wave, use your BTC as collateral to borrow funds for Altcoin investments (ensuring borrowing remains under 30% of your capital). Now, with the increasing choices offered by the DeFi market compared to past cycles, this method proves quite effective for the strategy of using BTC as collateral to borrow USD for Altcoin investments.

Investing in BTC now ahead of the bull run is really a good initiative, also don’t fail to understand that there are some Altcoins that follows BTC trend. For example altcoins which are for exchanges just like BGB, BNB and the likes will give you a good amount of profit doing the bull market.

They have already told you, it is the bitcoinn, the alts are not safe, if you want something secure you can venture to buy rq bticoin, because it is the most secure it gives, for now for a lifetime, the rest you still have to complicate and possibly lose money Well, buy an alt because it is what we do to make our lives easier that alts make money? Yes, they give it, but just as they give it, they are the most unsafe there is, if you want security, buy bitcoin, there is no loss there, buy the amount you want, because in a while, because you don't know when, it will go up a lot, and if you buy Now you will have more beneficial earnings because if it rises to more than 100 thousand USD you will be grateful.

There is no doubt that bitcoin is a better choice because as stronger the bitcoin is no altcoin become so stronger ever. In my opinion no other coin can be more moneymaking than bitcoin so if we choose altcoins then some of these are also moneymaking but in comparison bitcoin will always win. In term of trust and existence bitcoin is more valuable whereas altcoins existence has no guarantee.

Altcoins can sometimes give huge profit but as there is a doubt about its existence so its huge profit is neglected because they can easily disappear in a day. Buying bitcoin will be profitable now as present worth can determine your profit during halving.
Dont you think that trading is all about finding the right balance between risk and knowledge? Sure, Bitcoin is like a friend you've had for years who is always there and dependable. Yet altcoins? Definitely unpredictable, but could also be very beneficial.

Just think about it: isnt it exciting to find your way around the unknown world of altcoins? Okay, so their future might look like a big question mark, but what if you know enough to see promise where other people see doubt? Altcoins might be like special gems that are just ready to be discovered and shown off. Remember that taking calculated risks can lead to big benefits.

Although Bitcoin makes you feel safe, dont rule out the appeal of altcoins. They could bring awesome returns if you know what you're doing and are willing to take risks. For truly amazing results, you sometimes have to experiment and play a few notes that arent planned. How to open it? Its best to stay knowledgeable and flexible.
