Obviously I would invest in bitcoin as there is no official organisation controlling the king coin. Its price goes down or up freely without any influence and control. As a result, bitcoin has dominated more than 60 percent of the entire crypto market. I believe in bitcoin and investment in it is secure and worthy of getting returns.
I think 80% of Crypto lovers will choose Bitcoin which a decentralized Crypto than a centralized Crypto, so it's true as you say that it's better to choose Bitcoin than Ripple. Bitcoin has a team that is already very sturdy and trusted than other Crypto.
