Bitcoin has had its big payout already last December (when it almost hit $20K). Now it's nearly half that price (an dropping) due to the fact that many people are investing more in Altcoins (such as Ripple, Ethereum, Adex, etc). I would recommend starting with buying Ethereum on Coinbase now while it's at a decent price (near $1000). It will easily be double that within the next 3 months and from there you can sell your ETH and buy some Altcoins that may give you 10X proficts over the next year. Hope this helps!
