Usually they recommend you to diversify your investment, so you avoid losses.
But as a real approach, having $1.5k, would you invest in how many cryptocurrencies ?
What if I invest little by little, only in Bitcoin, would that work as well ?
I think investment diversification really needs to be needed. diversification is a diversification of investment types. so I think this can reduce risk. and now there are many good altcoins that can be an investment reference. like EOS, Ripple and NEO I think those coins in the future can develop. so you should divide your capital into two parts. $ 800 we buy bitcoin and the rest we use to buy altcoins. when bitcoin goes down you will still have altcoins.
