Ethereum is on a big bull run right now.

only because of bitcoin, like everything else, all good altcoin usually increase when bitcoin get a pump, nothing new

Pfff not really you total retard.  Most altcoins dump hard when bitcoin rises.  You just dont have a clue, a literal dribbling retard who knows nothing.

I invested in monero and nxt and look at them now.

"I Invested in Bitcoin at 1200 USD and look at it now. Bitcoin sux!" - Noobish trader and investor, at the time Bitcoin was at 200 USD.

I'm very glad that I started this thread because now it is more clear to me that most people who are bearish on altcoins are clueless and inexperienced. Which makes me bullish on altcoins even more.

Honestly altcoin is not the best option because they are slow pump price than bitcoin also some of them are scam...
So think trice before buying some altcoin to hold it in the long year or months

Every blockchain based cryptocurrency other than Bitcoin & Litecoin is basically shitty P&D scam which prey on naive small-time investors.

What i learned in 2015:

Do not fall in the trap. Stop being a tool for assholes. The FOMO is your enemy, so NEVER ever whatsoever give into it.

I dont think Altcoins are good investment at all. There is way too much scams in that scene. Altcoins (at least some of them) are mostly good way to coders sharpen their skills and good test ground for things that could one day be implemented in Bitcoin but if you ask me, crypto need maybe few alts (with faster confirms, able to send dust cheaper and anon sending options) and that is all.
This is exactly what I think of altcoins. I invested in monero and nxt and look at them now. They are not worth as much as I got them for and are just depreciating everytime that I check on their price while holding them.

It is undoubted that you can make huge money investing in altcoins, but your capital will be at high risk all the time If you don't have the proper knowledge and strategy to do it. I personally prefer to invest in bitcoin because is the only digital currency with a brilliant future, no matter to be patient for several years to reach the expected wealth.
You people add nothing to the discussion.  Why dont you all fuck off?

I would never go for an altcoin since i heard just too many bad things about them.
Most of the developers there are not developers at all, just hiring some guy to make a coin and they make up some graphics.

That's correct. Apart from their bogus marketing plan they can't deliver on anything.
There are a few legit coins with good developers but they too can make a coin go downhill very fast by having no time.

Why I like Dash, the devs are delivering

I'm enjoying this thread and agree with the idea, though wouldn't recommend picking alts to everyone. Idea of only looking at those with big market cap is sensible. Also those that have been around for a while

@SISAR Wondered if you care to name any that have caught your attention ?

Only alt I follow myself is DASH, might also be tempted to look into ETH a bit more though.

Investing in altcoins requires lots of research if you want to profit unless your investing in the top altcoins.

It is actualy the oppossite of what you stated. The higher on marketcap list some altcoin is placed, the more time you'd need to research it and stay up to date. For other altcoins, in a single day you can quick-check hundreds of them for at least basics like community activity (forum thread), existence of main website and explorer, trade volume at exchanges and all-time charts simply by using http://coinmarketcap.com/ data. After discarding what looks like shit to you keep on learning more about altcoins that you like. In under a week you'll have a clear picture of situation and then just occassionaly check for any updates.

Top ten altcoins ( Lite,Dash,Doge,Ethereum,NXT,Monero,Bitshares....) will probably survive.
But wait a little longer,new dump is on its way.
And THEN buy some of your favorite alts.

To wait a bit longer with top altcoins might be a good call but it is not with realy cheap yet interesting altcoins. It is all related to liquidity. One will possibly not lose much profit if he is a bit late with top altcoins because 1000% rise is very unlikely in very short period of time which means that buying after bottom is confirmed would probably still result in great entry prices. But with very cheap altcoins, where liquidity is very low, 1000% rise is possible in a single buy! Unless you bought coins prior to a rise you'd miss a big part of profit because instead of buying at let's say 1000 Satoshi today you'd be looking at 5000 or 10000+ as entry prices tommorow.

The top altcoins cannot be counted in numbers of 10. I prefer to only invest in the top 3-5 altcoins because the remaining 5 might change in rank.

Sure, Bitcoin can go up 100% from here but altcoins can go up 1000% much easier and much faster, given their current marketcaps and lack of liquidity. But do not wait for too long, buy at least a small amount of altcoins at current very low prices and smile later when majority suddenly (re)discovers altcoins, many of which outperform Bitcoin is all technical aspects. Pretty much every noob investor and speculator is dumping altcoins now so you should be slowly buying them.

Depends  what altcoins,doge is up 30% in last two days Buy is from BTC38,maybe chinise are preparing doge pump
