There is no need to write or express something that is beyond our ability to make it appear to others that we are great while what is conveyed is misleading or substantially wrong.
You do have a valid observation there and that's true. I've come across many like that. They post what is obviously not what they do outside here. They come here to promote and loud Bitcoin as the only coin they can buy and hodl but in reality they also invest in alts. In fact, most of them don't even have any bit of Bitcoin they're hodling. If you asked me I would say it's hypocrisy of a sort. Some give investment and trading advice whereas they don't even know what trading platforms look or feel like.

It's good you brought that to the fore once again. Sadly, many members don't think that's necessary to do before asking questions that have been repeatedly asked and answered. The search feature should do that magic and prevent needless repetitions of topics.
People have all the choices where to invest but you can really determine a person if he is lying or not because his reasons are just very shallow. When someone says invest in bitcoin and avoid altcoins at all cost, for me that could be hard to do if you are actually a good investor. No one gets to invest and expect immediate profits from bitcoin, of course you have to try out investing in good altcoins as well as they can also be profitable like bitcoin.
When you decide to take risk, then just give it all. If you take risk investing in bitcoin, then most probably you can also do that to altcoins but investing with caution is still highly advisable.
