Not sure if this is the best time to be buying bitcoin. A lot of people have been talking about the "bitcoin bubble" and so the price might fall rapidly in the upcoming weeks, though it's pretty much guaranteed to rise back up to where it currently is eventually. So bitcoin is the safest investment as long as you have patience and refuse to sell at a loss.
Altcoins are a different story, and could outright die if you chose a bad coin with a bad dev team. So really it's risk versus reward at this point, alts will make you a millionaire because you can go so many so cheap but bitcoin will earn you steady income.

The thing is how much would you like to get. If you wanna do x10 in the medium term BTC/ETH is not your value. IMHO, you gotta make some research and buy some altcoin kinda Ripple, maybe IOTA with low price...
Depending on which individual traders want to invest where, in my opinion for big investors BTC might be more potential, but for me the small capital of Altcoin is more potential.
At this level the coin market is in bullish trend and you can see Bitcoin rose almost 40% in last 15-20 days, also Ether up from $300 to direct $500 in 15-20 days. I recommend you to invest your 60% capital in Bitcoin when it comes around $9800 and remain 40% capital in Ether because Ethereum is an open software platform based on blockchain technology that enables developers to build and deploy decentralized applications, and Bitcoin is evergreen coin.
Bitcoin should be a must in your portfolio, half bitcoins, the other half in altcoins that has future. use coinmarketcap to determine the altcoins that has appreciated over time and buy.
For me, its okay to do both just as long as youve researched about the altcoins that you will buy. There are altcoins who have big potential so, its better to buy them now as theyre still cheap. Maybe in the future their cost will be higher and might be like what happened to BTC.
It depends on you. It depends on what investment you are aiming to do, if this will be short or a long term investment. If you want to have a go for a long term investments, then try investing in the alternate cryptocurrencies or in the altcoins, you'll have a good profit there. And if for short term, give a go for bitcoins.
I suggest you to invest in BTC and altcoin to diversify the risk. Depending on your trading objective, you can choose to invest more in BTC (maybe around 70%) if you want lower risk and lower profit.
As for altcoins, do some research before investing. My suggestion are ETH and XMR.

Look what is going on the crypto market — it is not only Bitcoin that rose to the Moon. Ethereum Classic growth is fantastic (even if it now going down, but all alts.)! Korean guys made everything to raise this alt. However, I would recommend you investing into other alts, too – Monero, Zcash, Ripple. Litecoin also.

You can try to divide your maount into the altcoin and bitcion, but i suggest you to put more on the bitcoin, but this is not the correct time to buy the bitcoin as the major milestones for bitcoin already reached and i will expect another drop asap caused by the bitcoin already touched its peak. Which one do you recommend to buy?

I bought bitcoin to buy the altcoins which i am trading to get more Bitcoins in it,buy bitcoin buy alts trade it to get more BTC.
Obviously bitcoin is miles ahead of every other altcoin.
Obviously bitcoin is miles ahead of every other altcoin. If you have money and you're investing you should go all out for the ultimate. It's not bad to gather a couple of altcoins but if you've got the money shoot for the stars. At least you're assured of stability of bitcoin relative to the altcoins.
Don't rely on our answer on what ya gonna buy sir, It's a hard decision to make bitcoin right now is almost 10k it's expensive and there's a really big risk if you're gonna hold maybe it suddenly crashed or something bad might happen you're gonna lost a lot of money there but if you play you're cards right your gonna have a lot of profit, but if you hold altcoin i think it's better if you're a daily trader altcoins value is really volatile much more volatile than bitcoin but it's not as expensive than bitcoin.

I recommend buying both bitcoin and altcoins. I think bitcoin is perfect for long term investment, it's price will definitely goes to the moon someday. And same are altcoins, and you don't have to choose, I know you can earn profit by choosing either one of them. But it is up to you what would you choose, to where do you think you can earn much more profit?
Bitcoin price is so high now. I think you should split.. Like 70% for btc and the 30% for altcoins. Eventhough bitcoin's price is so high now but I'm sure it'll rise even higher.
Both of them make sense, some of the alt coin also got a good rising, so it depend on yourself you want a short or long term investment, but if you want to buy bitcoin you better wait a while seems like there will be a correction, but if you okay with buying a little bit expensive then go for bitcoin, savung it for long term you will definitely see the profit

i do not recommend now for you to buy bitcoin because its value is so high. You can buy altcoin , and etherium is one of the best buy. Or you can even buy other altcoins that you want. There are many coins in the markets that are have the big potential to rise in 2018. Like powerledger , blue , btcred , and etc. Want you choose in the end is the most important.

If i were you, ill split it and buy 40% of my money to bitcoin 20% for ethereum and the rest ill use it to invest to some promising ICOWhich one do you recommend to buy?
Or some bitcoin and some altcoin?
That's a good choice, but i go with bitcoin.
Bitcoin is pumping right now and no one knows when next drop will be.
I think a strong investment portfolio should be based primarily on bitcoin and if you want a long-term investment, I would suggest ethereum.
Therefore, i would split this way:
Bitcoin 70% - short-term
Ethereum 20% - long-term
Promising ICO 10% - risky one.

Splitting your investment is always the best way to go in general as it limits risk. I would say split your investment about 50/50 between bitcoin and 3-5 alt coins that you like the look of.
