Sometimes when bitcoin price tanks, some alt-coin price gets higher. But it is not always like that and also if you chose the wrong alt-coin, it may also crash. Anyway, every time bitcoin price tanks, it always recover and even get higher. So it is better to just hold your money in bitcoin.

I've haven't started trading yet but since I can afford to lose these bitcoins I'd probably just hold. If get really low enough, I'd probably take advantage of that and buy additional coins, betting that the price will pick up again.

If Bitcoin crashes, which I hope will not happen,I would try to sell as much and convert to fiat. Or maybe if the crash wasn't that big I would hold on for the price to recover, what will surely happen with time. I don't think that investing in altcoins would be the good way to rescue the money.

Any bitcoin related include altcoin also got their effect so the solution may be sell all in as fast as possible since it's difficult to find people who want to trade gold => bitcoin for example.
So from know, my advice is sell a little bit when bitcoin reach high enough value

this is the first time in my life i am hearing someone call investing in an altcoin a safe way of storing money to get away from crash!!!!
i think OP needs to seriously take a look at some charts. his beloved ETH has had drops so big he is going to have half his money if he starts getting involved with it. and not to mention other pump and dump coins that are high one day and go down to 1 satoshi the next.

We have certainly seen a lot of short term speculators posting on the forum lately.. everyone wants to jump ship, before they go down with the
rats. We have learned from experience that Bitcoin always come back from it's "dumps" .... just look at where we are now, since the biggest
event that happened with MtGox. { The price was at more or less $100 back then... and we are $1200+ now. } Look at the history, to see the
future.
..... The ETF is not the end, it is just part of the journey.

For example, if bitcoin is going to crash and I exchanged it into $1200 Ethereum lets say. And it goes down to $800 USD, will the Ethereum value go down?
Could you exchange your bitcoin into another currency to be protected from a crash?
I think Coins like Doge, LTC , USDCOIN all of these are 99.9% stable always in the same price, 0.01% prob that you are very very very unlucky and it drop when you buy but I don't think it will happen.

If the bitcoin will crash you will not know. It's nice if you already convert it to other altcoin before the crash. And I know if the bitcoins dump, the altcoins pump. So if you convert it to altcoin, your money will not crash and there's a chance that your altcoin price will pump.
I'm of the opinion that you can better sell for fiat than other altcoins. A Bitcoin crash would likely also affect the prices of Altcoins as general panic sets in.

Do nothing, because the price will rising back.
Yes definitely, the price will increase after all but in what specific or particular currency you used if bitcoin will crash?
Well for me, i would rather to wait when bitcoin will come back and re-build again. But i dont think if would really happen into bitcoin since it is more progressive and used by many people around the world.
What if it doesn't? Like there was a news that a super duper mega quantum computer was built to hack into bitcoins and steal everybody's money, that will definitely kill bitcoin and every user will move on. In that event, I think I will not be placing my money back into another currency, unless there is real surety that it cannot be hacked.

if you want a quick profit then yeah why not, a lot of the altcoins are good options for a quick investment to take some quick money from their pump and dumps but not for the long term, you should always remember to get out of them fast as soon as there was a rise.
and don't worry too much about bitcoin price, it is temporary and it is not a crash. it is just a correction.
i just said this in another topic i repeat it here: we are still 17% up from last month! even with the drop.

Why bother to do that? It will just give you more things to think in the long run. A headache for those who are really not familiar with the things related in crypto world.
First of all, what do you meant for a bitcoin crash? A price decrease only or bitcoin will become doomed? If for price decrease, then just let it go that way. In the long term, surely it will regained again it's pumping status so no worries here even the price decrease too much. If for a doomed thing, then putting money to other cryptocurrency is useless too since if bitcoin will becomed doomed, so on with the other alts.

Of course you can put your money in another cryptocurrency if you think you may be "safe". However others cryptos are not safe from any crash. The propability can be less or more compared to bitcoin, but can't be zero. So it is something to consider too
I don't think that bitcoin crash is possible. Price of bitcoin can go up or down rapidly, it's normal thing. It can go down to $800, but I don't think it would be crash.
I think buying of altcoins are much more risky than holding bitcoins. You are not right that your mentioned coins have very stable price. It's also going up and down more or less. And if bitcoin would become much cheaper rapidly, I think it can have big influence to altcoin markets.
When the price goes down of 50$, you can read some news here and there saying Bitcoin is crashing ! LOLI think buying of altcoins are much more risky than holding bitcoins.

If the bitcoin crash and you already exchange it at Ethereum before crash. You are lucky because you already converted it to other coins. Some altcoins pump when bitcoins dump. So there's a big chance that your money will grow on that coin.
March 08, 2017, 07:43:19 AM
Playing safe. Hmm could work if the website wallet could turn your altcoin in USD directly. But I doubt that alt will not be pulled down also with the bitcoin crash. It is somehow connected. So why make it harder when you could just stay with bitcoin which is more reliable than alts which are disappearing anytime they want.
March 08, 2017, 07:39:41 AM
Best option is to just exchange your bitcoin into fiat when price start to get some correction like right now and wait till it stops getting dumped. Than buyback cheap bitcoin with that fiat you have, buying other alts during bitcoin price dump may not always lead to profit and it is quite likely that other alts price in terms of fiat will remain almost same or even less when bitcoin get correction.
March 08, 2017, 07:38:03 AM
What's the need to think of a crash when bitcoin is growing potentially gaining the attention and acceptance of people around the world.

the recent small crush is nothing that we have not already seen in the past, if you are worried because bitcoin tanked by $10 then it's better if you leave bitcoin, because this kind of swings will always be there no matter the adoption size
and frankly speaking putting your money on any alt is far more dangerous, their swings are soemthign like 100%+, bitcoin in comparison is very stable...

I personally like the fact that now we are calling "crush" declining of the price to $1,180. Really, it's great, guys.
On investing in other cryptos, I agree, it's far more risky than investing in Bitcoin.
