But what altcoins should one buy? Maybe this coin alphabet can help by giving an altcoin overview and initiating a informative discussion.

These are the alphabets I want my kid to learn :) .. Augur seems interesting to me.

Compared to AntShares and other hyped altcoins it seems that Augur is a rather "conservative" investment. Out of this six altcoins it is my favorite, because it has a unique business model.

Good points in this blog. Same mindset here. There's a lot of exchanges out there. I found that coinmarketcap.com gives quite a decent overview. I found this amazing platform: https://www.coincheckup.com I'm really enthusiastic about this site, they let you analyze every single coin out there.

Are cryptos still low enough now, 3 months after you wrote this? Bitcoin was around 5K USD and then went under 4K in September 2017. I have some Bitcoin. I am thinking of buying more crypto. I traded other cryptos this year but I feel less confident in betting too much in the other cryptos, especially when Bitcoin rises too much and too quickly as it does sometimes. It seems that other cryptos cannot catch up when BTC rises by ten times or more. I'm ok with trading other cryptos while Bitcoin is not suddenly rising by twice or more. It seems to be better to invest in Bitcoin long-term as in maybe a decade or longer. But the other cryptos might be better in like day trades as they have higher risks currently and so far until that changes maybe in the future. But Bitcoin will probably be worth more than a million dollars before 2020. Yeah, just two more years.
