You are absolutely correct on that. All eyes on the bitcoin, the newbies, me inclusive, love to buy bitcoin. I thought I was a noob till today when I have to explain to someone that had been on steemit for more than 3 months that there are 1300+ other cryptocurrencies. He was shocked at the stat. So, I believe many are like that and just content to buy into the media frenzy of bitcoin and forget other well-performing cryptocurrencies. People are quietly making 10x in some coins without the attention that comes with 30% move on the price of the bitcoin.

Nice post @rok-sivante Bro, I want Upvote for Christmas bro :) Merry Christmas to you and your family

yes you are right, your suggessions for investing are guidelines for us. thanks for updating.

Hopefully that's the best ... And can our advantages multiply ...

Awesome perspective , thanks for sharing . Upvoted and followed 😊

All of this were extremely difficult for me, maybe because I am new to both cryptocurrency and investment. Well, I'm sure I will get used to it.

there is a learning curve in this space, as there's alot to learn - but it's an investment oftime in knowledge that pays extraordinary dividends... ;-)

Holy! I never grasped this either.... You just sparked this understanding on my mind.

...And I thought I was fairly smart... but that is so simple it's one of those things that make you feel dumb for not realizing.

We are so formatted on measuring everything in FIAT.

very helpful! thanks for sharing

While considering other alt-coins a sound investment option with your bitcoin appreciation, it may also be a good idea to be considering bullion. Gold and silver are and have always been safe places to store wealth. Buying precious metals while bitcoin is up could potentially payoff if/when there is a major correction. Turn your bits into gold and then your gold back into bits!

Anyone care to share an updated chart since BTC has increased 7x since?

Or care to put one together with projections of what it’d look like once BTC hits the $500k and $1million projections...?

Isn't it exciting how much more valuable bitcoin has become over gold? :) Furthering proof that all value is subjective. If bitcoin is the pin to the dollar's bubble, I would reasonable expect to see a spike in the gold and silver markets.

This is something worth looking at. I am still unsure, if usd/satoshi value is all encompassing in the top 20. However, individual will start thinking in both manners now.

Juts getting into cryptos I've been debating what to buy. I really want to invest in altcoins that have huge potential, but with the mainstream most likely picking up cryptos for the first time in 2018 I think all eyes might be on bitcoin and possibly whatever else is on coinbase. People like convenience, and they like what they know. It makes deciding where to put money a bit more challenging, bitcoin seems very safe, at least for the first half of 2018. Nice article, it puts things in perspective and made me think twice!
