Throw $100 into half a dozen of them, and hope that the hype surrounding cryptocurrencies causes the value of 1 or more of them to spike out of control.
You could definitely do this, as long as you're comfortable with the risk.

You could sign up to Coinbase, or QuadrigaCX to purchase your BTC. Then hop over to an AltCoin trading platform like Bittrex or Binance, and start moving your BTC into various coins.

If you don't want to manage the wallets on your PC, you could keep them on the exchange, but there is definitely a risk in that too. Countless stories of exchanges being hacked, and people losing all their coins/tokens. It's a fun game to play, high risk, high reward. So if you're cool with that, go nuts and have fun!
