I first got into crypto in February this year however did not start investing in Bitcoin until June after the crash as I felt it was too expensive until then.

I mean how high can Bitcoin realistically go in the next 2-3 years? £150k maybe which would be less then 10x compared to other altcoins that can 20-50x when the bull run returns.

Just wondering if everyone invests in Bitcoin or is it worth just focusing on strong altcoins that can 20-50x in the next few years?

I know I have got into Bitcoin at a good price but just feel while altcoins are currently 85-95% down from all time high may be better making the most of that rather then being safe with Bitcoin and not seeing much return.

Btc price has a lower potential when compared to altcoins, but it is still a very decent potential we don't find in other investments among traditional markets.

To persue altcoins for higher percentage profit seems pure greed after making this comparison.

Altcoin profit is only huge in short term (during the pumps) not in the long term (due to the dumps). In comparison bitcoin will always be a lot more profitable because it doesn't get dumped the same way altcoins do. That's because of the pump and dump nature of the altcoins. In short term you could see 1000% pump where for instance price of a shitcoin goes from 100 satoshi to 1100 satoshi, this means a massive profit during that pump. But the problem with altcoins is that they follow that up with a massive dump where that same price goes back down from 1100 satoshi to 100 satoshi in best case scenario and in worse case it goes down lower to 10 satoshi (lower than the initial price). Any subsequent pump is going to always be smaller (eg. from 10 to 50 or 400% instead of the previous 1000%) and never go back to the peak.

But in comparison bitcoin price is always going up regardless of its short term swings. Take 2013 for example, price goes to $1200 but falls down to $150. But it recovers back to $1200 and continues rising and reaches $20,000. The next time there is a drop it is to a higher low of $3200 and it also recovers that by going back up to $20,000 again and will continue rising after that too.

This is all based on one simple fact: bitcoin is useful in real world while altcoins aren't.

If we see in terms ROI, then Altcoins have a better scope than Bitcoin.  However, they are extremely risky. If you want stability, then you should consider Bitcoin as it is widely adopted.

I will partially disagree, btc no doubt is the best coin to hold but there is nothing wrong with little diversification of your portfolio with a few good alts. I don't need to go in details about alts like eth, bnb, sol, dot, ada, avax, ltc, egld, and so on are alts which am pretty sure still trading above the price they where initially launched! and not only that most of these alts have been around for some years now and still going strong, the perception that alts are not good for long term mostly applies to shitcoins that have no significant beside pump and dump. Those type of alts are not able to recover even when the bull market season occurs.  so if there are alts that shows some element of potential, i feel it is worth a try.
