Bitcoin Forum

I personally invest in penny stocks and ICO's.

In real life I invest in life insurance that comes with savings so bybthe time my insurance matures and nothing bad happened to me I can choose if I want my savings to be converted to a pension or pay me in lump sum. I find it convenient since its combined rather than look for a company that will cover my insurance and another company for my future savings.

I invest in the real world. I bought some gold bars. then I keep it for long term investment. I strongly believe that gold is an investment that is safe and reliable.

I have never invested in any real life company or banks ICO, share market is completely manipulated in my country so large dumps and large pumps are normal here. I don't think i will be happy to invest in shares here, cryptocurrency trading is better for me.  :D

Real estate and this should be in off topic.

Honestly, I've never invested anything besides cryptocurrency. I even rarely invest something with my cryptocurrencies, but recently I'm interested in a stock investment. I would like to learn how to do it first and then try to invest a little bit, and if I could do it well then I would probably invest more.

I invest in stocks. I just recently learn the potential of bitcoin and I believe that it is one of the investments that I should focus on. I already lost significant amount in other investments because it failed but now I gained hope again in bitcoin and believe that I can achieve my goals investing in cryptocurrencies. As for stocks, I started with it just three years ago but I don't really focus on it somehow because I've been more active in cryptocurrencies now. I am planning to invest in other investment vehicles like real estate and other commodities if I have enough funds to do so because it's important to have multiple source of income.

I don't actually invest but more of I save. I do hae some altcoins which I am waiting for a price increase and I am buying some more of it. If that is considered invetments, then thats it for me. :D

Even though some people {Warren Buffet} believe diversification is for Sissy's, I still believe it is a good thing.  ;D ... I dip my investment

feet into lots of different things.. a little bit of gold and silver and some other commodities and some shares and property investments.

I believe you can never diversify enough, to spread the risk. If you invest in only 1 thing, and it bombs out, you will be left with

nothing.  ::) ...Oh, and some Bitcoin.. obviously.

Actually after earning bitcoin, convert it to fiat and invest in a  health products.   i would love to  use bitcoin but the company where I buy  this health product does not use bitcoin.  So I don't have choice but to convert it to fiat and buy this health products.  It's a local trade but im planning to set up an online store for this products and accept bitcoin.

there are lot of othwr assets where users do invest their bitcoin like online accounts, hier someone for our projects and so on but as because investing in cryptocurrencys are the best and shortest method thats why it is so much famous you just need to buy some altcoins and trade them for others

I invested forex, but lost all, I invested gambling, but lost all, while gambling is not investment at all. Now I only invest in altcoin, so I become rich. So lucky me.

ICO means "Initial Coin Offer", this would enter inside the category of cryptocurrency investments.

Anyway, as far as myself goes, I don't invest in anything outside the crypto circuit. I used to invest in forex, but I got tired and now I focus on crypto only. Lots of opportunities to get rich.

I thought that about silver a few years ago, and am still waiting for a return.......... :-[

OP may refer IPO, aka initial public offering, those are real security/share. Not like our coin offering, ipo is lagitimate, but most ico are scams.

I have some stocks. Since not much interests are payed anymore by the banks I invested in the stock market and did not regret it till now.
Hopefully the next crisis is not going to come too soon.
Besides that and some bitcoins I do not have too much investments.

I've bought some gold and silver and I also invested in some stocks, but not really for huge amounts.
Looking into buying some real estate when I've saved up more.

I invest in the real world. I bought some gold bars. then I keep it for long term investment. I strongly believe that gold is an investment that is safe and reliable.
[/quote]That isn't a bad idea at all, though I'm partial to silver myself. 

IRL I invest in stocks mostly.   In fact I prefer stock to cryptocurrency by a long shot. Penny stocks are complete garbage, and you can lose everything. I wouldn't advise anyone to trade in those.

Yes, penny stocks are complete garbage if you don't have allot time for analysis, most of them will go to 0, only the ones who recognize potential before masses earn big, so use your head before media starts promote them.

P.S No risk no profit.

Nowhere, so far, but real estate is a very good option. Cars are also an option that might be good and fun, but it's a bit more risky.

The members at here are universal investors not crypto investors alone, they also invest in insurance and with that they are also trying to invest for getting shares in someone's business and some are investing for to start their own business etc.

I am investing in different coins, in bitcoin itself and in some ICOs and with that I am trying my best to start a good business but for that I think I do not have sufficient capital, I will have to collect some more money for to invest in my business.

real property and I have a same think with the another this thread is already in the wrong section.

in real life i am investing my money into life insurance scheme and double money making scheme in 7-8 year . still my saving is much more . but i don't think to invest more in real life beside of btc but my investment amount is more in btc than in other things .

i diversify!
invest in real estate because it is profitable around here.
and as i am a bitcoin fan, i invest a lot of my money in bitcoin and it has been profitable so far.
also for earning more i invest in altcoins or i better say i trade them.

As of now I'm not investing on anything since I'm new to the working world. But in the future I would definitely invest in house/lot.

I invest in gold, usd and apple. Gold is a guaranteed investment. It is almost no brainer. Sure there was a big bubble of 1800$ happened a while ago but it is coming back again. Stronger than ever.

I am a bit of a hoarder when it comes to Coin collection, and I border on being a Numismatist. I have been doing this since childhood, and I have a good collection. I think this is one of the reasons why I also got into Bitcoin, because I thought in the beginning that it was some sort of physical coin.

I now own a bit of both, and this will secure some of my financial problems in the future. ^smile^

I mainly invest money in domains but it's more of a fun hobby than an investment really, one that happens to offer potentially high rewards. I just really enjoy brainstorming names and ideas for brands and websites. I also try to keep an eye out for undervalued names on the various marketplaces. And because I only invest what I can afford to lose, I don't have high expectations, I just focus on having fun  :)

Penny stocks won't be considered as a wise kind of investing you must ho to the well known stable companies as most penny companies often use the ipo money to pay off debt and then later declare there company bankrupt. I am also into stock investing I invest in stocks that are undervalued but thee are not penny stocks.

I buy stocks on the TSE and the NYSE, Canada has some cool shit Iv made some decent money with pot legalization happening up there

Maybe not everyone, but I think a lot of people in this place are using Bitcoins in order to achieve the education that they want. Education is such a huge investment. Unlike with altcoins and trading, you can't go wrong with education. You can't have negative profit in school. All you have to do is learn things and get your degree so you'll have a nice day job. A decent paying day job can serve as your multiple source of income while bitcoins is your sideline.

Real estate is always promising a lot of profit, but I just wanna for investing my money in a real life, and that is already included all of the investment placed in a real life. besides of investing on cryptocurrency.

this really depends on where you live. for example in my country the stock market is awful especially these days so investing in it is not a good idea. i used to do it a while ago but i sold everything and got out.

another market is the real estate which is also not so good these days but it is still a better market compared to others so i am planning on investing in it in the near future.

and apart from that i invest in gold because it is one of the best things to invest in and it gives quite a good return sometimes.

p.s. i think this topic is better suited in trading discussion board.

As a Bitcointalk member I invest on forex besides cryptocurrencies.Also I invest stocks market in our country.I saw many people invest many different site.I find many others opportunity to invest my money.

Aside from crytocurrency I have in Mutual Funds. I am also planning to buy RTB's or Retails Treasury bonds issued in my country. Paper assets is also a good investment. Also have an insurance,health and life as it can help in time of need.

Hm .they mostly invest on gambling ,forex trading and hyips as i conclude based on some threads here reading what are their investments .also some invest on real estate and others invest on their home to build .
For me i much invest on the real world i've joined and make investment on real legit companies like networking .i much prefer that my money don't stock on my wallet i want my money as much as i can invest on so many things which can make it grower.

I invest in CPA marketing to drive some leads to my offers.

I also invested 500$ in the online business of one guy and returned me $560 after 10 months.

Nice guy.He wasn`t a scammer.

personally I invest it to trading , gambling, and also I hold it and wait until the bitcoin getting high  ;D

In real life I invest in the stock market with proper research on that company and detailed analysis. Trading of altcoins is also another thing I do here.

I prefer to hold btc for now till the price skyrockets will be selling it all away then. No problem for me to hold it for at least 10 years.

besides crypto, i invest my money in gold and silver. they give slow and small profit but it is ok for a person like me. sometimes, i also invest my fiat money in some reputable physical companies which gives good profits. btw, honestly saying, i invest in bitcoins more than fiat.

whatever you said is just rubbish. you should first properly read the title of the thread atleast.

Im not investing my bitcoin or my money either in to crypto currency im stocking them and waiting for the 9th of november what would be happen on that day they say that is like halving that turn bitcoin in 2 piece and maybe bitcoin will increase  price for sure

To all of the possibility and diversity of investments you have chosen Penny Stocks. Why? I don't get it Penny Stocks won't grow  if you are really speaking of "investment" because they are the companies who just barely accepted inyo IPO, if you are speaking of investment you must invest in bluechips or if not go to companies with a big market cap.

I invest in education. We can't say for sure that our earnings from Bitcoins will be permanent. We will eventually get bored of what we are doing. We'll eventually find another hobby or even discover a different passion in life. Nevertheless, education is my back up plan just in case something bad happens in the Bitcoin world.

Also, to be successful in life, we have to be knowledgeable of certain things. Yes, there are non-educated people who are so much successful than educated ones but it was simply because they were exceptional at something.

I havent invested much in other things besides in crypto but hold few real life local bank ico shares however those shares market are highly manipulated.

nowhere
because i dont have more money to invest just enough for my daily needs

I also invested in some ICOs of altcoins before because i feel they are really profitable sometimes because they grow to a large percentage after the ICO finishes so if you have invested a good amount you get good returns too, but sometimes it gets opposite to that and drops the price which can cause you a loss as well.

I do with some stocks i know buying some shares would be a good assets but im also taking some time thinking to go much bigger investment with alt tradings.

I invest in the real world. I bought some gold bullion and also make the business of buying and selling computer equipment.
I feel happy and lucky. this time my business successful and also very crowded.

usually not all bitcointalk members are invester some of them are satisfied with the signature per week payout . but some of them invested btc in altcoin at yobit . because i found many user at yobit who are also in this forum with the same name .

This time also I prefer investing in ICO's. the advantages very big and don't have to wait so long, like a bitcoin investment should wait for prices to rise and it will definitely take a long time. Whereas, in ICO's only 1-2 months.
I always invest and grow with regard to altcoin, because it really is very profitable.

Its because  of their hard work ,patient and doing their best .that non educated people pushes their limits and they are the ones that are thrist to be successful .that's why many people are amaze to them .not all educated people become successful in life that 's the big truth .but i do believe in hard work nothing can beat that attitude .
 
Investing on education is the best thing and the best answer that i've read .it is a critical thinking answer some of the others just don't think about ,they just post and post.

I just signed up in btcjam.com and you can deposit your bitcoin there as a lender investor. Though I just join but it seems its a good platform for an honest investment by helping others just like in microfinance. Though the interest is something like 10 % annualy or more, its a good alternative compared to the bank.

other than crypto currencies i invest my wealth into gold, because it is stable and easy to get, and also i can use it into different things like ring or jewellery, other than that i also invest in jewellery, but recently i sold half of my gold investment to invest in bitcoin because i think its more profitable

before i knew about bitcoin the only thing that i was investing in was Gold. and when i found out about bitcoin i almost transfered all my money to bitcoin. but now that some time has passed i am investing in bitcoin, altcoin, gold and real estate.
i also wanted to invest in stocks market but i did not like it at all.

I had invested once into a game, later i had done the cryptocurrencies besides that i usually invest/spend some coins to get boosts into some games, and i will be paying my domain and host with bitcoin as i found namecheap does accept bitcoin.

...

Gold and education are both great ways to invest, and great ways to diversify as well.  Diversification in investments is perhaps the single best way to solidify one's financial situation.  Gold is relatively uncorrelated to most other investments like stocks, real estate and bonds.

Education can take various forms: formal college or trade schools, informal hardcore learning (for autodidacts), interning, etc.  Invest in yourself!  That would be particularly good advice to young people. 

A nice example (for me anyway) is learning about Bitcoin here.  NO ONE I know is into it.  But, by learning and posting here at bitcointalk, I can get a little "return on that education investment"...

Its so hard to find an investment company that accepting bitcoin and has a big markets caps some of companies are only offer 2% of investment in every month and if you guys use to save bitcoin it won't grow much better if we invest that and take the risk.

in cryptocoin world i dont invest everything except for trading. cause i think invest in another hyip/ponzi wasn't recomended.
I have never invested in any real life company or banks ICO. I just invest in cryptocoin for trading.  ;D

Besides cryptocurrencies i invest in stock but local stock, and i also invest in gold, but not too many, i am more focused on bitcoin for now, because i find it more profitable and i dont need too much money to start investing bitcoin

Well I invest in shares as well as gold. But most of my money has been invested into Bitcoin. I definitely have high hopes for Bitcoin and hopefully I earn some money from it.

Actually i am not investing anywhere my bitcoins right now because i dont have much right now.I am just focussed on saving and collecting more bitcoins to my wallet right and i will do that for 2-3 months more until i have enough amount of bitcoins,then i will plan to do some investements with my bitcoins.

You definitely should invest into other assets as you never know what is going to happen to Bitcoin. It is never good to keep all your eggs in one basket.

What I have in bitcoin makes up for about a tenth of all my active investments. I have some investments with the savings and loan association from the company that I am working for. I also have some at the local mutual fund. I recently just closed another investment from my bank because it has not given me good amounts of return and I have to use that money for something else. The good thing with my bitcoin investment is they grow at a faster pace and I get to earn them as well, little by little.

With negative interest rates, I think insurance is a dead duck these days. I've been investing in Internet domain names to provide an income, and a capital gain. It's getting hard to find good ones now though.

I don't think that "Never keep your eggs in one basket." applies in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is basically just money. Is it bad to store all your money into the form of money? Is it bad to store all your money in bank? If your answer is both 'No' then  you should not have any problem storing all your Bitcoins into Bitcoins.

Also, investing in other assets isn't always a good thing. Even a business put up by yourself can go bankrupt. You don't know what would happen to your investments so I think the person you were talking to just want to make sure that none of his coins goes to waste but as a consequence, it'll not earn profit as well.

Since banks do not provide much interests anymore, I have redisputed a good part of my investments from the bank into the stock market.
I'm not sure if it is a good time for that, but if I leave the money in the bank and the interests are at zero, I actually lose money cause one dollar today will not buy as much than one dollar tomorrow.
At the stock market I can lose money, but I can make some profit as well.
I prefere that option to the loss for sure at the bank account.

just curious how is investing on domain names works,i've been working in domain names since years ago but just can't figure out how to invest because people are rarely buying domain instead of creating the unregistered ones,just figured out in few domain names marketplaces but most of them have low rate of price

Invest on exchange sites by buying their own coins. i have invested to some who have tokenized their company such as alcurex and the new one is https://altex.ws to which they do have their token named APT. seem pretty cheap as of now. these are somehow long term investment though, you will need a lot of patience for this type of investment.

i am not make any investment besides cryptocurrencies, and bitcoin and altcoin is my only investment. because from time to time, i realize that bitcoin and altcoin is like a good investment while in future, technology will be a part of the world, nothing will not use the technology and technology itself will be grow more faster than we can imagine.

I Don't Know That Where Other Bitcointalk Members Invest Their Money But U Personally Invest My Money In Revenue Share And Hybrid PTC Websites and There Is Use Perfect money For Deposits....

I Don't Know That Where Other Bitcointalk Members Invest Their Money But U Personally Invest My Money In Revenue Share And Hybrid PTC Websites and There Is Use Perfect money For Deposits....
But Mostly I Invest My Money In Trading Altcoins....

Ok so beside Bitcoin I invested a bit in some stocks, but not much.
When you don't have that much money there's not much you can invest in.
Furthermore I believe many of the actual markets are overvalued and inflated by all that QE of the last few years.
Bitcoin however imo is undervalued right now and has massive potential for future gains.
Sure it's a kind of gamble as we don't know if Bitcoin will make it, but I'm positive and willing to take that risk.

I invest on trusted alt coins in yobit exchange, by trusted i mean the coins which has been around from a while and has a quite good reputation among traders, and those coins are ETH, Dash and some more.

Okay, i understand about your post but better if you could for deleting one of your post and just not careless with your another post just avoiding for the another people's opinion if you're a spammer, right?

I've not invested anywhere else besides crypto currencies. I only invest in crypto currency. I invest in ICO's specially. this is the only way of investment which I feel legit little bit. I find a good coin which have good road map and escrow and invest my earning there.

I invest in ICO and re-invest in bitcoin.I buy when price is low and sell them when price goes up.It is hard to find other good investment opportunities

I think most of the members are investing in Penny stocks and ICO's.
They don't want to invest in the banks because the interest was too small.

i try not to invest bitcoin that much these days because the only thing that i have been seeing in the investment plans is shady business and a final scam waiting to happen.

but if you consider trading as a form of investment then i do that. because my money is more in control of myself rather than being in the pocket of someone else.

Well all people here have different financial status in life so as desire in which type of investments they like.

As for me, aside from doing investment in bitcoin and in other cryptos here in virtual world, Im also have such active investment in real life. It's a small business one but good source of income. It's still better to have multiple sources of income as long as people can managed it freely without pressure.

Investing and Penny stocks does not go too well in investing as there are other good stocks to choose from like Blue Chips which are high in capital and in which you know your money will grow well. I don't think that Penny stocks can give you that much gain that you are looking for.

I am currently invested in one of the top performing companies here in our local market. Also, I do have a small business that I gained after a year of investing fully into bitcoin. Right now I'm looking forward to some promising startups that I see in Kickstarter. The market nowadays is saturated with the same concept and same companies and I like to see a startup that I would be a part of and see it grow.

Actually and honestly i dont know where the other bitcoin members invest besides cryptocurrencies. Because for now, i never done investing bitcoin, but i know investing is a good way to earn profit.

Would you share your ideas guys where you invest beside cryptocurrencies?  ;)

you can simply invest to learn a skill online. maybe try purchasing a video tutorial on lynda.com or maybe udemy.com, that i guess is one of a long term investment if you get to practise what you learned.

If you  know how to use  google, then for sure  you would  find  some   investments  that would  suits  your interest. As long you  have  the  money to  put  on,  making  investments would be  no a  problem at all as   long you are  knowledgeable  on  to  things   because  as we all know there are lots  of   investments cams  out there. Crypto currency  investments are  good  for  long term  but  its also  good to make  investments on  physical world  like  investing  into stocks, physical stores, lending firms and  many more.

iam invest in lending poloniex and bitfinex

Yes, it does not go very well investing in penny stock, but to me there are some investment alternative like online affiliate marketing platform where you get to sign up free and your money for paid advertising which will guarantee you very handsome return on weekly to monthly basis without making too much effort on your side.
