Bitcoin Forum

Will be achieving ~10 BTC in a few weeks, all bought from an exchange.

Instead of letting the coins lying around, am considering to make some investments, currently in the back of my head there are a few "genres" :

1. P2P lending. E.g.:BTCJam and bitlendingclub.
2. Goods purchase. E.g.:purse.io
3. Funding E.g.: bnktofuture
Of the three I have the biggest faith in investing in professional funding aka ICO

My question being

1. Is there any other solid non "quick money" which I can put my BTC to use
2. What other reputable ICO investment is there for my minute amount of BTC to invest

Thanks guys!

Well.. Basiccaly before make investing on there, are you ready for loss 10 BTC on instrument of investments? Because what will You doing is high risk, you must calculate it. In my opinion you must try making investment that suitable for you, because it will be runed by your self of course with small amount of capital.

Lending, besides margin lending, WILL NOT work. BTCjam and Bitlendingclub re full of scammers and these websites are unable to provide any kind of protection for your loans. Even if you re very, very careful, you ll end up having 20% non performing loans which means big time loss.

Margin lending s great but it is much less profitable. Personally, I differentiate my investment into 5 to 10 smaller revenue streams, they do not generate much but crypto s a very hard to make money recently unless you re lucky with trading.

DMD Diamond s a PoS coin I ve invested almost 2 years ago, it has brought me nothing but profit, they also have an investment in the house option. Big time honest people and the only thing I can actually recommend.

You can try investing in gambling websites, like https://www.crypto-games.net and earn a share of house profits. Just keep in mind if player wins, investors loses and vice versa.
Currently over 1100 BTC invested.

There are many good ICOs that you may consider to invest in like KOMODO,Incent,Decent etc.
Make your research and invest.Do not put all your coin in just one ICO

I strongly discourage P2P lending. Check out my post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1625932.0

so that mean our money can lost and not coming back ?

I too to suggest to invest in gambling sites' bank roll. But, you need to do intense research on their reputation. Select ICOs are good, but it is slightly tougher than investing in gambling partnership as you need to check more number of new alt coins for their concepts and roadmap.

OP I mean no offense,  but I think you're retardified for even thinking of doing any of the super-risky things you mentioned.   Man, if you have 10 bitcoin, just save it.  Bitcoin is a way of investing fiat and you don't need to invest it further.   This has been discussed over and over here.  But in any case, props to you for accumulating so much.

You can buy stuff on the internet and resell it on your city or country...

For me the only good use for 10 BTCs would be to let it safe and quiet in the wallet waiting its price go up.
Online investiments, further if it's about BTC, better to don't risk your money, because the risk to lose is high, there are not many guarantees here.

Divide it to 5 pieces and invest every piece in a different dice website. You can reduce the risk of getting scammed this way. Dice websites are making shitloads of money. Check their profits before you invest.

Well that's really a handsome amount of money , but I have got some realtime investment plans . If you want to put the money in goods and purchase then I would say you should buy some gold and resell it later as gold is the metal which has a hike in price in few years .

I do not know what to advise.
Now many people will invest in "KOMODO"

Just hold your coins is the only decent option.

1. P2P always loses money and is full of scammers
2. Not sure how you profit that way, but it might be possible?
3. Funding/ICO/Securities are all gambles and most of the time you loose... The only ones making profits are the ones selling...

Actually not a terrible idea, tell your friends to let you know when they want something on Amazon. Buy it for them, and get them to pay you in cash. Split the savings with them 50-50, or something :D

Obviously. You can't expect the gambling site to cover losses, because they wouldn't accept investments in the first place if they could afford it, and it would reduce their profits a lot. Site like Crypto-Games.net have a max bet of 0.5% of the bankroll, which means you can lose 0.5% of your investment max at a time.

I would invest a few BTC in a bankroll for a dice site, with the house edge they are pretty much always profitable but don't put all 10 btc there that is too much risk in case the site goes down or gets hacked.  I would do maybe 1 or 2 btc in a dice site's bankroll

Another decent advise is margin lending, Polo offers it and Bitfinex offers it. You cannot lose money there unless the site goes offline. So there s always some form of risk inside crypto world.

I agree with you here as there are scammers or those who didn't pay their loans. I dont know how much the payback rate of these  P2P lending sites. I have an account in BTC jam but still I am cautous to start lending my BTC. I have my BTC being loaned in POLO Margin trading,so far its good and it is  earning returns. ;)

P2P lending works well only if you lend money with a proper collateral. If you just lend based on some trust feedbacks from any site then mostly likely you will lose money in the long term. So don't ever lend money without any proper collateral. BTCjam got many scammer and many people already reported that so don't invest money in that site instead put your money on some good casino bankrolls.

NastyFans has been around since 2012 and has made over 200 distributions to "seat" owners.  There is no more reputable or dependable community organization in the BTC space.

In most cases the best case it to stay away from altcoins if you have no knowledge of the market.
But there's plenty of btc casinos you can invest in that are becoming more and more profitable.

You should look at investing in bitcoin casinos as SparkedDev talked about. That might possibly be the most profitable and safest investment you can make if you choose the right casino.

If you are interested in doing loans I'd actually reccomend you that you're better off doing them on this forum than a p2p service as you will probably encounter less scammers IF you follow the standart practices here (Holding accounts, collaterall and no newbies etc.)

i just want to say that it's so easy to turn 10btc into 15btc in a couple weeks of time

i have a sure way of doing it.

i've been thinking of selling the idea. i've done it a couple times. it's not gambling. it works 100%. (i can no longer do it, it's capped per person) a lot of people have done it/ are doing it.

i've been thinking of selling the idea for 2btc. problem is, i have no way of stopping the person who buys it from telling/selling to other people.

just throwing this rant out there, that i'm sitting on it and i won't be sharing it  because i can't think of a way for it to benefit me enough, i'm selfish:P

Lol, I think nobody will buy a money maker method for 2 btc without informations and details about it first. It's too expensive... And maybe can't work for some people as worked for you. And if someone buys it, surely this one will try to resell the idea cheaper and so on...

it would work for most people, and if i sold it, i would have the 2btc held in escrow not with me. until say they made 4 btc doing it.

but like i said, i won't sell it, because gaining only 2 btc isn't worth it to me when whoever i sell to will likely just tell other people

I would not tend  to sell  it too and  better  to spoil  it forever as  long i made money with it and dont tend to tell to  anyone. Im greedy and selfish. lol.  If  you would  tell it   to someone  for sure  it would  spread like a disease and would  be abuse and therefore  the time would  come that method wont  work anymore.

I would put all my 10 BTCs on a dice game. So, I would make $40 dollars daily in bitcoins easily. With a big bankroll I doubt any casino can defeat me.
Or I would buy a business for me to make money working.

I  agree with zadicar its better to  spoil  it  because   you could already  make   money with that  method   and  dont  tend  to sell that method for sure  it will scatter and anytime soon it  will got  busted   because there are lots of   people are already using it. 2 btc is  just  for temporary profit compared  on  making profit with that method that  might  last  even more. Well its   youre decision  to sell it to public but i dont  think theres an easy way to make  such  profits like that.

U don't play against casino, u play against other users. Yes, they can and often they do defeat you.

Investing  on casinos would  have somehow  the edge because  you are  together  with the  house  itself   but as he mentioned   players  could really  possibly defeat you and  make  no  profits  on a  particular  time.  Investing  on  casinos wont guarantee  you anytime because  there are really times  that you wont recieve  profits at all.

The players can defeat me, but when the casino starts making profit again I will earn the profit with them. Nothing to fear... That is what I understood about this kind of investiment (what was told to me).

I wouldn't suggest P2P lending, unless you know the person you lend to or have collateral, just too risky with too low profit. Gambling is equaly bad investment, if can be even called so.
What about that you buy some pieces of art or jewllery? This is always good investment and these things don't lose their value.

This sums up my advice pretty well.
Not even mining is a great idea...

Those kind of investments are really not a bad idea since they really do have the risk of lossing money. Ex. You put up money on a p2p and others said its a bad idea but others could able to sustain and grow it. It depends on the person on how he manage it and avoid the possibilities to get losses of money. 10 BTC is huge already and you could actually put up money on some investments but if you are in doubt then its better to hold off.

Holding such huge numbers of btc will be good but if you think for profits well actually the best platform for that is on tradiny sites since 10 btc can already manipulate the price of certain coins, and don't just really on holding since it cannot do anything good always since price blatantly go down after the thunder of price upwards, and much better really to invest separatedly on some serious matters like as op said good ICO and gambling investment.

You have a point,if you like to see profits on short period of time then its really better to put it into investments on which you could able to generate money and you dont need to hold it since you could able to maximize your money to earn money but remember that theres always risk on any investments but if you play smart on it then you could possibly earn money and thats the advantage of investing your money.

It's very risk. Both trading and gambling. I was looking on some videos about trading, "tutorials", but there is nothing 100% sure about it. The strategies are fail, sometimes can work, sometimes not... Looks without luck, there is no profit trading. If you put the wrong amount on money on the wrong order, it's over...

The only investment I see worth a little yet is the casino bankroll, but I don't know for how long it will worth... Many people doing the same investment isn't good.

The thing you said is actually true but its not always the case on trading,it might be difficult and may not work anytime but there are really helpful guidelines and tools that will help you out on your trading career.Lossing is a normal thing on trading but you should end up on profits and winning trades must be more than on losing ones. Trading is really risky if you don't have enough knowledge but if you are already prepared enough you know how to handle that for sure.

Yeah i would suggesy also that go to this site since ognasty the owner got huge trust to the community and also he will surely deliver good to his investor, and also for OP he can choose to invest on gambling site since that is more better rather than investing into hyips while theres no assurance that that we can get our profit unto them since mostly that kind of sites are made for scam, thats why be wise and study the investment platform so we cannot get bad headache's in the end.

Totally, we cannot really say that we can earn huge or not since trading is no guarantee for us to get some profits at all but although this is one of the best option to us but surely we need more proper knowledge about it since its very high chance for us to lose somr money if we do lazy acts on trades and just buy those shitcoins on the certain exchange, and as you say proper preparation will truly the best for us to do so in tradings.

Margin lending is probably the safest option but it's not risk free. If you provide a loan to a trader that uses it to margin buy a certain altcoin (hoping it goes up) but the altcoin's price takes a sharp nose-dive for whatever reason (ie critical vulnerability discovered) and forced liquidation can't be executed at set price (due to no buy orders) then you'd be at loss. So there is a risk other than exchange going bust.

Most people do really believe on this thing which trading is a good investment which you could able to make decent or more money but its not really easy to achieve and as you said it would really need proper knowledge and experience in able to be profitable with it.Lossing money on trading is just a normal thing because of price volatility and must be careful choosing shitcoins.

I think the same. The risk when trading is high, there aren't strategies working 100% there. You can "read" the graphics, try to find a sequence to create your rule, but who knows if what you predicted will really happen?

What traders say is that on long run their strategies always work, not always, but on the majority times it works, same thing that sport's gamblers say. In my opinion trade and sports gambling have something in common, and I don't think it's possible to live only with this income. Maybe you can try, but I'm sure it will be a life without stability.

Why don't you start a business with such capital?

Sure, it's not something big, but you can well use it to start a business and continue growing it.

You just need to be resourceful so you don't really need to trade your bitcoins to fiat ;)

What do you have in mind?

The more active you trade the more commissions traders get, and the more tax you'll have to pay to the government. So the natural thing is to encourage small investors to trade trade trade. The stockmarket has been able to give a 8% annual return over a decade, if you don't keep trading in and out, at least 8% is guaranteed.

This is the first time i heard about this 8% tax annually being collected from brokers or platforms but there are different types of brokers on which could be forex of crypto trading.I didnt heard such thing about those taxes implemented on crypto brokers,dont know if im wrong or right.

As u currently may have seen that btc just touched 1000$+ i guess the best thing is just let it be there and don't use it. What i did was sold when price was 1100$ and bought again when price became 868$ so i think the best option in current date is to let the btc stay and don't invest it anywhere as it can be risky

Have you looked into joinmarket?

I am surprised that it has taken this long for JoinMarket to have been brought up.
@OP - You can find more details here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=919116.0
It essentially is a risk-free method to make (small) returns from your idle bitcoins.

although buying bitcoins for now is risky but i think also that this is the best option for now since many people are doing it to earn and joined the fast flactuation of ups and downs for the price at this state, but lets be carefull since anytime their will be something bad happen since many people are afraid at this current situation we must be vigilant and be watchfull for the price to see on what is happening at this moment and be updated for the latest price tick,

Have you tried this personally? It does seem a bit complicated for an ordinary non technical user. The more complicated it is, the more stuff can go wrong, which increases the risk.

Yes, I have tried this personally. The only way to run it is through a command prompt and that might put off some users.
It has been running for some time now. Given that it is open source, we can be reasonably sure that any vulnerabilities would have been discovered by now.

Hi metalbean,

try to invest it in trading, there's a big money to that, if you know how to earn money in trading then you will become a millionaire, try to build some mining rig also, there's a lot of opportunity in mining and a very big of many also, you may also withdraw it everyday as much as you want , there's a bitcoin converter online you should convert the coin you are mining first.

Yes trading results doesn't really guarantee big profits because it would really depend on our actions but if you are really serious enough to learn it then you are on the right way on your career.Trading cant be learn on just overnight 10 btc is already a good amount to start out but be sure you are ready on the risk involve because you will surely experience lose if you don't trade smartly.

Loses can help him to became a better guy on trading and actually indeed 10 btc is huge but not enough to manipulate some some shitcoins out there and much better if he just separate those funds and put on another area so that he can earn more rather than focusing only on trading where we cannot guarantee at all that we can earn some profits today.

I would buy a tool to unlock Iphones with that much money. You can make your investment 10x after that. Since you can get paid to unlock ihpones, buy locked iphones on funny prices and sell high. Just imagine :)

Reputable ICO will depends on your own research on the coin if you are sure on that ICo will be successful it is worth your investment so after that you can also trade it provided the coins that you bought on the ICO .It is a dual purpose you invest then you can learn to trade .

Thats why instead of focusing in trading much better if we just find and explore some good alternative where we can earn more since focusing on one area could lead us to lose more if something bad happens in our trade days thats why it better to habe some good alternatives and the option we can select is by joining on various ICO's,casino investment,loan business and other explorable profit generators.

There is no investment 100% sure.

If you're looking for a low ammount as profit you can bet 10 bitcoins on a gambling website with 90% winnings chances. Actually I do think this is even more legit that investing in hyip or other possibilities.

Maybe if you can find a broker who trade bitcoins and he has a good history there can be a short profit on a short term...

Anyways good luck

I would rather go on that site since i can assura that i can earn some profits rather than risking on hyips where we can't assured that they will last for even 1 day. I alreadt some of hyip investment turn scam immediately and 10 btc is not a joke and thats totally a lot of money to be risk so better to be carefull on handling that money and think better ways to earn.

it is possible that even an exchange btc-usd in this moment is a good investment, price will go down in the next months. or to be lucky to keep it for a few years...and the price BOOM

I have recently come into contact with around this much in bitcoin and have put it to good use in various corners of the trading spectrum.

Having done this I am happy with the results they will give me in the immediate future and with the rise of the price recently it just makes those investments grow that much faster and less time needed before they are ready to withdraw for me to use.

Putting them in these to begin with has solidified my stance on the amount of bitcoin I have dreamed of having since I started investing with them late in the past few years. ;D

I too to suggest to invest in gambling sites' bank roll. But, you need to do intense research on their reputation. Select ICOs are good, but it is slightly tougher than investing in gambling partnership as you need to check more number of new alt coins for their concepts and roadmap.

If you are much aware of online investments then you probably would not take this huge amount of BTC into a paltry intention.
I personally do believe that investing anywhere on the web is nothing other than an absurd sentence because all of claiming profits from investments are scam.
However, the Purse.io is considered to be a trusted

Solid returns with oldest Bitcoin mining company in the U.S. buy shares in their mining facility and rent it out to miners. lowest rate of return is 36% annually being in a bull market you should be able to do much more, check out the calculator on their website. Doesn't get any more legit than this https://cryptonomos.com/?r=1H2MkmZnQak9mIc0NKCaddDsQ

I'd also suggest spreading your investments around, diversify a bit. The one I mentioned I have no doubt you'll make money, but you might make more on one of the riskier ones. So do a few different investments, put less in the riskiest and more in the safest. This way you're protected but you can also hit a home run on one of the risky investments. Whatever you do I highly suggest the Giga Watt ICO, as long as there are coins to mine people will need a place with cheap access to electricity to host their miners. Whatever you do good luck  ;D

Put it on lending in Poloniex.com

Bitcoin will reach 25 000$ soon

I will only lend to people whom I know personally else would not do it. I would invest in new ICO where the future looks bright and will get at better price during pre ICO stage. Few of the btc will be used for trading and earn some gains from it. rest will hold btc for a longer period

Hold on to them.  ;D  The number of coins are limited and the complexity rises with the increase in number of miners and the rate at which they get mined, So, if bitcoins market cap were to increase (which is statistically more probable)  from its current point which is at about 61 billion dollars, chances are that the prices are going to go up and up and up.  ;)

why don't you invest it in the bluechips in crypto (major coins)?

Do you mean diversify out of BTC? Like owning the top 10 cryptos? Something like that

Lending is a good way to make your money work so I agree to one of your choices. I also recommend that you try trading cryptos because it's the fastest way to get tons of profit.

But its pretty hard to execute it since there are so many scammers on this furom and loan defaulter, But if you can able to reach for escrow service to handle the collateral then it might be a good business for you but I will not put all that amount in 1 business only since there are more profitable sections where we can earn more specially with altcoin sections.

By just having the coin is already an investment and there is already a risk on it. When the price drop you will loose some of your investment. Luckily price from the date this thread was starting was like 6x she made a good investment then.

I would never lend the btc to anybody unless I know them personally. Instead will prefer to just hold the btc and prices if rise will gain automatically or will buy some altcoins at ICO stage or if available cheaply and will sell on when the price rises in future and convert back to btc again

I would suggest to invest it in gambling and play dice game, i can give you my strategy since you have huge amount of capital you can make 99% income using it. Now me and my friends are getting good amount of profit even we have only limited income. We do not spread this strategy yet but if you really want this kindly contact me here.

Interesting - but not profitable

I am also looking for a trusted investment opportunity, seems like so far there is nothing like this in BTC Space.

You can purchase stuff on the web and exchange it on your city or country.For me the main great use for 10 BTCs is let it sheltered and calm in the wallet holding up its cost go up.Online investiments, further if it's about BTC, better to don't chance your cash, in light of the fact that the hazard to lose is high, there are very few assurances here.

I agree with this one, this is a good idea. Keep in mind that a lot of people loves gambling and all of them arent winning, at the end of the day most of them might lose. Plus this website has a good share percentage with no fees during withdrawal (not unless if you choose fast cash), and you can monitor your balance and profit every single day. The key to make more profit in gambling investment is "patience"

Bitcoins themselves are a risky investment, Just Buy and Hold.
If you still want to add on to the risk by investing them further and want some great returns, Best options according to me are :-

1. Invest in Gambling websites, there are a few websites which allow users to invest in bankroll and be the bank, Believe me, House is always in profit.

2. Lending, involves much more risk and patience though.

3. The best is to invest in alternate Cryptocoins, you will need to do some good amount of research and choose your coin wisely, and you surely will make profit. Ripple and Doge are doing really good these days.

I would take one bit coin and buy a defensive put (Bet the price will fall) and protect your investment. :)

The easiest way I've learned is to do your research an read whitepapers. Hammer great ICOs for pennies. Wash/rinse/repeat. WAY easier that gambling with Bitcoin/Wall Street/real estate. Good luck!

I have a very solid and almost risk free investment plan and I am looking for funds.
I can discuss with you all of the details and provide guarantees if needed.

If you can earn so much and need so little why do you need investors? This seems more like a scam and is a lot like the doublers, just slower...

here is a pretty boring suggestion, but buy a house! 

I wasted thousands of dollars in rent while living in the city, and while it was an incredibly fun time, I regret that I spent nearly $1,200 per month to basically live in a dump. If I'd had purchased a house, I woudl have saved nearly $55,000 in rent payments, as I lived there for five years.  Boring I know, but if you don't already own a home, putting down $100k on a new one could be a fairly satisfying way to spend your BTC.

Currently buying the altcoins is the wise decision and 2018 may be the year of different altcoins rising and making you a smart investor and become a millionaire. Along with btc you should be buying some pre ICO stage coins, some top altcoins, some cheap coins so that you have a bunch of mix coins. If even few of those coins hit the high rise you will gain tremendous from this type of investment.

Those ways are actually good for you to be able to gain profits but depending on how you knowledgeable to do it. If not then you will able to experience different thing. BTW why this being bumped up again. ??? ???


Not only seem but it is indeed a scam asking for some investors without any proofs of legitimacy or give assurances to its investors is 100% scam.

The are many ico there that can seriously make you a good profits. You can invest in this particular one I am promoting now that is Buzzshow it is just like YouTube.  the pre sale is going to commence in 16 days from today. GraftNetwork is also there and so many other.

Takes a scammer to know a scammer son.
I surely am not scamming and you are an idiot.

I don't have enough capital and you have no idea what you are talking about

That's not the only option,daddy. You can also know if you've been scammed in the past,by magisians like you. 8)


And you have idea?! :D
With your "system" and "skills" you don't need any capital at all. Perhaps this works only if it's others money,right? ;D

You're useless son :) Your likes used to amuse you me  15 years back or so. It never turned out well to any of them.
Try to be a more constructive in your opinion.

I am an entrepreneur, I can take your and any bitcoins under %.
For a period of 1 year. At a rate of 25% per annum. (The minimum period is 3 months).

I would exchange 50% for cash. and would have bought or invested in a real business. (trade, production, services)

The remaining 50% - would be distributed to the Altkoins from the top 20.

Guys can you stop necrobumping a topic from 2016? Thanks.

                                   For starters, it would be advisable to remove your red warnings with a nickname.

Buy and sell is the best way to make an ideal amount of money. You should consider staying up late and watching the market before using any trade bots. Take advantage of the opportunity now before the price surge.

Use Waves Platform (https://wavesplatform.com/).

• Desposit BTC to your wallet
• Use built-in DEX to get Waves
• Lease your Waves to a full node
• Collect interest every week

Very safe and very stable.

Also invest some of the btc in some altcoins and when a new ICO comes invest your money in such good coins so that you get the coin at very cheap price and after holding some months you can make a good money if it has a good future . Also trade only a certain percentage as trading is very risky.

Since the OP posted this couple of years ago where ICO's has less influence and maybe was not the primary option to invest, unlike today where there a lot of ICO's around, while the others are scam. If he knows how pick the right ICO that has a future and good active team behind it, then that would be the most profitable way to earn good returns these days.

Here a new theme "from me" has opened.

I agree to some of them. If I were you, I will remain hodling instead of investing because it's very hard to find a good platforms nowadays. But if you insist then try to invest it in a business which is related to your passion or hobbies, scams are everywhere here in crypto world and there's a tendency for you to get victimized if you are not careful enough (10 btc will be a huge loss if ever).
These past few days, I saw an ad about Swissrealcoin. I'm not very sure about it's potentials but it amused me a lot after they explained how they'll turn the usual volatility of a crypto (which is their own coin) into stability. See it for yourself.

this thread is posted 2016, i wonder how the threadstarter been performing with his 10 btc.  anyways, i agree with some replies in this post.  margin trading offered by exchanges presents a wise choice.  you don't need time to focus on your coins, just diversify and don't put all into one nest.  also, you can try investing in reputable gambling sites like just-dice, i saw some gambling sites where they welcome investors.  income generated by investing in gambling sites and margin trading are small, but more secure.
