Ask HN: Alt coins are going up, how many of you are investing and in which coin?

Altcoins are like pokemon - just collect 'em all.

Drop $1000 into each with an original idea, $100 into each that sounds legit and $10 into each of the remaining ones (ignoring the ones which are just a fork with a couple lines of code changed).

Don't worry about fixing that time machine - as sad as not doing it a few months ago feels, it's not really making any difference in the long run (aka "Dollar-Cost Averaging").

As usual, standard rules apply - never invest money you can't afford to lose, scale the amounts stated above to fit your disposable income, etc.

If looking to invest, be careful, there is a lot of pump'n'dump schemes going on in the crypto world.

Also many are running ICO example: http://ico.encryptotel.com/

Investing? Or speculating?

It is speculative, but worth a punt. Better than the horses.
