You can put your funds in Eth but i will recommend to wait a little more, best buying entry would be around $600, if you get in then hold for few months, im sure it can give you 3-4x this year.
Eth would be good to invest as we know this is the one that follows the steps of bitcoin and have bigger value as well. Even not huge like bitcoin but this alt would be good to have because lot of traders trusted it and earn more profit from it.
