investing in some alt that wanted to give me high b.p
What if you invest in bitcoin today and the price later fall from $27700 today to $20000. Hope you will not panic? Some people that have experience will not sell but leave the Bitcoin on their wallet, the price will later increased and increase very far above $27000.
If altcoins increased, they can increase than bitcoin, but some may remain shit coin and not increasing. But if bitcoin is decreasing in price, when it gets to 1.5x decrease, expect altcoins to have decreased over 2, 3, 4x or more. That is while they are like you are gambling. Invest what you can afford to lose on altcoins.
What can be more painful about some altcoins is that they may not get to all-time-high.
I must buy bitcoin today, I really don't know if someone else is experiencing the same thing out there?
To buy bitcoin is a good idea. If you can not buy at once, you can DCA.
