I know that all altcoins depend on bitcoin prices but it requires just a little jump in the price to see altcoins as profitable while those investing in bitcoins need to have a good investment of 1000+ USD to get a good profit which is not in the case of altcoins where you can invest as little as $100 and see yourself earning a good profit. Not to mention the amount you pay as fee in bitcoin transactions and confirmation time.
There are many other investments one can make but here I have found altcoins more profitable than bitcoins as these altcoins start from a price of $0.01 or less where bitcoin was in the start.
The altcoins have spaces to grow, but according to the latest situation it is very hard to choose the right one for the investment, whereas bitcoin seems promising any any other coins. Yes you can find altcoins start from a price of $0.01 for the last two years we hardly seen iny positive movement in there.
