Sometimes investing in altcoins means loosing your Bitcoin, don't invest more than you can't afford to loose. Maybe you should choose LTC or Tron. I keep both of them on my Ownr wallet for a long time, these alts are getting more and more volume day by day.
Nope ,Most of investors specially Long time holder ?has their own sets of bitcoin in Wallet ,they are just seeking altcoin for short term income in which indeed ,because many of altcoins are fast moving and may change course in a matter of hours or days.
But this doesnt necessarily means they are losing their Bitcoins .
