I also think that investing in altcoin can get faster profits, but I think the risk of investing in altcoin is also very large and can collapse at any time.
It can also lead you to lose faster if you got to the wrong coins. I invested in few altcoins and sorry to say that my money lose eventually. I didn't regret that because the money that was invested there was through my profit. That's life, we lose some and we win some. Altcoins aren't the best for me but you can make money with few altcoins if you are good in choosing what to buy and when to sell.
