I know the question sounds stupid.
But my questions is, if i have 50k should i rather invest in bitcoin, ethereum or a other high market cap coin compared to a small market cap coin were i could almost own 0.1% if the coin supply is 1 billion and trades at 5 cent.
It should be much easier for the coin with a lower market cap to make much more gains than with Btc, right?
It all depends on how much you want to choose to keep where. The market is unpredictable so you cannot say for sure what is better. If you really trust bitcoin then it is better to HOLD and keep it as an investment for the future. But if you are here for making instant gains go for trading.
Also, go for coins with higher market caps as it is not just about gains but also security!
