According to Odaily Planet Daily, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said that if you want to invest widely in cryptocurrencies and public chains, you should own a variety of crypto assets. If you want to make a specific investment in a new form of digital currency, buy Bitcoin. Bitcoin is likely to become the dominant new form of "currency" emerging in the cryptocurrency field. It has a great lead, and scale is important for currency. In addition, unlike other assets, Bitcoin's design and community are moving towards this goal.
The currency market is huge, and BTC has a lot of room to grow if it succeeds. But there are other potentially interesting applications for public blockchains, and ETH is currently the leader in those.
