Altcoins include ethereum,polygon etc. Already heard of dying of altcoins. Many peoples invest in different platforms. Some people hold ethereum polygon bnb etc. But their prices don't rise much. Are they better to hold and invest than Bitcoin? In my opinion Bitcoin is the best to hold. We have all seen the volatile Bitcoin market in the past few months.
If you want to hodl for long term, choose Bitcoin but if you're hodling to flip it for profit at any time you can make best of the credible altcoins if you know what you're doing. The reason I said that is because on the short run altcoins give better ROI compared to Bitcoin investment. However, I won't advice a noob invest to do altcoins because it's more risky compared to Bitcoin investment.
Investing in bitcoins is better than spending money on a lover but it sounds ridiculous but it is true.
The base of your comparison is faulty. Bitcoin is inanimate while a lover is flesh and blood. As humans, we need the company and touch of others. All work and no play make a credible Satoshi dull. Life without humans will be boring no matter how wealthy one is.
