10,000 USD is not that much. I'd invest it in Bitcoin. At this price you can have 1 full bitcoin for 6,300 which is cheap. Remember that only 21 million people on the planet at most are theoretically able to own one full bitcoin. The remaining 3,700 I'd invest in bitcoin mining companies stocks to diversify a bit and give me some shorter time advantage, since stocks like that can short time go up more than bitcoin itself. GPU companies and energy companies are also good longer time investment.
I also prefer Bitcoin, knowing that it has been around since Crypto beginning there is high potential for its future. But I will not fully alocate my funds on it. It would be wiser if I'll be investing on other stable alternative coin such as ETH, DASH, LTC, and the likes. This will decrease the loss from my investment. What's good also about this is that I can easily hold them all together since there is available software like HODLER wallet which is the only open source multiasset wallet l. Hodling coins is easier in a multi wallet plus the security it offers.
