Both makes sense.
If you know more about bitcoin then you might get weary in just waiting for the price increase. So just buy it and let it be.
Get some altcoins to make it more exciting.
ERC20 coins under Ethereum is fun to trade. It is easier and monitoring them is a little faster for me then any other altcoins out there.
Just pick your best choice according to your knowledge regarding those new coins.

i hold(buy) bitcoin not more than 40% from my budget, then altcoin for the rest.  I know with holding bitcoin it's easy to gain a profit even you didn't always online, but from altcoin if you wanna short term invest i suggest you to bought some alt, like xlm or eth, and maybe the new comers BTG

Obviously bitcoin is miles ahead of every other altcoin.
maybe it will be a surprise to you but there is an altkoin which costs two times more than your majesty bitcoin.  surprised? think I'm joking? no way!!! that altkoin is real you can find it in the coinmarketcap site list and it's name is 42-coin! it costs 2. 28 BTC! or $25 350.40... impressed? me too,  especially for the first time when I found out 'bout it.

I want to buy altcoin or bitcoin for investment purposes before January
Which one do you recommend to buy?
Or some bitcoin and some altcoin?
According to some traders bitcoin has still more potential to increase in price so it is beneficial that you invest in bitcoin but a long with that i am also seeing that the price of ethereum is also increasing with time and it will also gain a high value in the future if some merchants started to use it. So it is also better that you invest in ethereum if you want altcoins.

If you ask me i would say bitcoin, bitcoin's value is growing up or should i say it is pumping that is why there is no doubt that it's value will be growing higher and higher, i also recommend you to try alt coins but choose the best and i think the best altcoin so far is the electroneum which i heard it's value is pumping so far

For me, both has make sense so I think you can buy them both with propotion of 70% for bitcoin because it will surely give you profit and 30% for altcoin but you should be very careful in choosing which altcoin you should buy because there are altcoin that can give you profit and there are some that can leave you nothing. Do some research first before you buy altcoins.

I alway invest in BTC and Altcoin to diversify the risk. Investing in altcoin is also very good before January because a lot of them will complete their roadmap at Q1. But I you prefer to play safe then it is better to have like 50 percent bitcoin and 50 percent altcoins in your portfolio. You can use coinmarketcap to search the altcoins and pick one then do some research.They also have a very good upcoming ICO

I will buy both, Bitcoin is acceptable in the my country and can convert them to my currency.  Altcoin on the other hand is a little risky but very profitable once you get familiar on buying, trading and converting it to Bitcoin.  There are ICO that has a potential for growth but be aware too that there are those who just fade.  Buying Altcoin needs much research and speculations.

well it depends on which one you can buy but i would suggest if you can buy both of them much better since both bitcoin and some altcoins are stabled and keeps on increasing their price.

I will choose both while you making profit with trade on altcoin you also need Bitcoin for investment and pay something on the internet if you're lazy to convert to flat first. You can't use just altcoin because lack of members accepts this coin for payment.

In my opinion, both of Bitcoin and altcoin make sense. The reasons are many,it all depends on your plans and financial capabilities. Now,the price of Bitcoin is on high side but if you have enough cash to buy Bitcoin,it is also right time to invest;whether long or short term investment,there is that risk even as in every other business. You can invest in altcoin by taking advantage of the low price in mostly long term investment to ripe when the price goes up.

If you can afford to buy a sufficient amount of bitcoin, then you should prioritized doing that, but if you have just the right amount to buy some bitcoin and invest in altcoin (which I prefer you should put some on ethereum), then it seems to be the perfect way and makes perfect sense.

You should buy bitcoin for investment, up to now bitcoin still pumping up but if your not used to bitcoin I also recommend ethereum.

   I advice you to buy both, even several coins. Dont keep all eggs in one basket. People use different coins for different purposes, while bitcoin is mostly digital asset other coins used at ritail market because of low comission. It means they may develop differently

Bitcoin is good for long term investment so i think holding bitcoin is profitable, in just a month or a week the price always increase and you can also hold Altcoin maybe you should split your money in the two the bitcoin and altcoin.

I think you can buy some bitcoin even if not the whole 1 btc you can buy some of it or maybe ETH, I think it is a good coin to buy. ETH is still low and afford by some as of now ETH is next with bitcoin so try some ETH.

I agree with pikebu,  his opinion about etherium classic makes a good sense. Etherium is one of the most interesting altcoins, I would say it's number one altcoin and Etherium Classic its fork is a very much promising coin. Another words "In ETH we trust".Wink

swing!
I think bitcoins would be a steady investment if the current trend continues, $15,000 might just easy next year if big eyes are not giving them up, NASDAQ is listing bitcoin soon. Altcoins are generally riskier but just their reward is so awesome if you got the timing right, who doesn't like to went on pump after stocking some of these alts, but generally every investment should be diversified to reduce your risks, maybe a 50/50 in solid bitcoin and some other alts which you find interesting and 2018 would be a good year for them.
