Title: 200k USD to invest?
Post by: coolmist on February 08, 2014, 09:26:02 PM
.5 BTC reward if anyone can post an investment avenue that will net me 100% in one year.

Where should I put my money to make the highest ROI?

Here are the things I'm currently considering:
  • Contracting out a company in India/Serbia to produce scrypt ASICS.
  • Helping out Alpa-Technologies by partnering up and expediting production.
  • Start a massive scrypt farm in a warehouse.
  • Investing with Butterfly Labs.
  • Investing everything back into NXT.
  • Starting a new crypto exchange offshore, relocating offshore as well.
  • Starting a high return crypto hedge fund. (I started my business at 16 with only 800 USD and here I am at 19 with 1 Million in total assets.)


Would anyone here take advantage of a crypto hedge fund?

buy gridseed chips in bulk and produce your own boards. Run gridseed scrypt farm. Scrypt Asics are taking over it will get cheaper from here.

Are the schematics for their chip out yet? I think reverse engineering them would be profitable beyond measure.

I'd look into CryptoCasino it uses a new protocol they built called Proof Of Risk and it was just announced today. I only support true innovative cryptos and this one looks interesting. heres a link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455780.new#new

If you have 1M USD, I would not invest $200k in 1 place. That's 20% of your money in 1 place.
PM me for a diversified suggestion.

Find a quality rising coin with a great community.

Then invest 1/2 in buying the coin on the open market (over time) and the other 1/2 in making the coin better.

start a company which supports with its service the implementation of coins in real economy. anyway this is necessary if we dont want that crypto comes to a soon end after the wave of shitcoins dumped it up...AND if we want to end fiat.

You charge a fee from crypto-devs/communities/supporters with serious coins and a fee from real economy companies for your advises, implementation service etc...your work is also the base of buildig a network which helps also the sellers to find more clients...important topic in hard times like these...

sure you have also provide an easy coin > us dollar /euro -exchange service for the coins you support.

i expect the 0.5 BTC here  8)

I think that the scrypt ASIC contracting would run a lot more than 200k to get started, but could be extremely profitable (with more funds, of course).

And as for a crypto hedge fund... I'd consider it, depending on the specifics.

Close your eyes, and pick an altcoin at random.

With that kind of money just a few thousand could cause an altcoin to increase in value. I could sit here and tell you how to invest your money, but honestly, if I had that kind of money I'd be too busy investing to listen to anyone else, as the only edge I have in this game is my wits.

Best option I see is contracting out a company in India/Serbia to produce scrypt ASICS. Even better start a company and find some cheap force to work for you, even if your mining rigs don't work out I think you can find them a good job and work from there. I mean you don't have to get a 100% return in one year, if you get a 50%  it's good enough. Just don't put all your money in one place. I would put some of it in a bank and get a % of it every year. Other then that best bet is a fund, find some good people to manage it and there should be no problem, it's all on how good they are at what they do.
Btw what do you? Out of curiosity?

Post by: Denmor on February 08, 2014, 10:31:57 PM
Well, out of what you posted, Scrypt Farm is the best option. It won't be a passive income tho. You will have to constantly monitor the market on what to mine. But it gives a very good profit. If you want a passive income, then just invest into all kind of altcoins in addition to BTC long term and you are all set.

This is true, if you can also market it and prove to people it's good. Look at our current offerings. There's a big lack of trust, not to mention the fact that most of them are low quality as it is.

You might want to check out Vertcoin, new asic and multipool resistant coin, could be a haven for script miners to migrate to when script asics come out this year creating a more decentralised and secure network.  A good medium - long term option (1+ year).

And yet here you are asking others for advice. Why would anyone who's so astute with their money do such a thing?

If you're telling the truth then you should know what to do already. Read. Learn. Invest as wisely as you think you can. Don't listen to the speculation of others; speculate for yourself. Any time anyone says they know a guaranteed return, be suspicious.

If you've got a decent GPU, get mining. Even if it's not the best, the process will help you understand. Without such an understanding you're liable to get caught up in pump and dump scams. If you don't have a decent GPU, invest at least a little of that $200K in some hardware; you may not see ROI for a while but what you'll learn about cryptocurrencies will be invaluable.

Read the bitcoin whitepaper. Read as many other competing coins' whitepapers as you can stomach. Decide how to invest based on your knowledge, not on the advice of others.

Just to be clear there is no sure way to double your money without some risk. Wanted to ask you, have you heard of Forex trade, get yourself a good Forex agent and you can earn some serious cash.

Joking aside, the best option for you would be to create a fast, honest, trustworthy altcoin trading company (exchange) and take the company public. Dont trade with USD so authorities cant touch you (you are not a money company, its just worthless coins right? well since they are not "regulated" they are not money).

I am talking etrade, tdameritrade quality site with fast transfers and tons of traffic. Spend 100k on marketing, 50k on fast servers and 50k on programmers.

Definitely don't invest in "ASICs people will move on from Scrypt to SHA-2 or SHA-3 (seen Vert?) just like they did with BTC. SHA-256 mining is pretty much worthless and abandoned except by those who are bagholders and never made their money back on their useless ASIC that dont do anything other than SHA-256 at a very very low rate.

This is interesting. Basically, you are trying to combine brick-and-wall business with crypto, investing back and forth.

It is very risky, you could make more with crypto, but it is rather innovative. It means, more fiat in crypto.

The problem is that developing an ASIC is probably in the millions, due to having to get production going, plus research and such. 200k wouldn't get that far.

Personally I think the infrastructure surrounding cryptos has a better long term ROI than the coins themselves.  You are banking on liquidity with the coins which is fickle at best and no really good place to unload sell them once they've reached your investment target.  That amount of money invested in cryptocoins is going to move markets when you try to sell them. 

As said earlier develop a good solid exchange.  I also think that a crypto bank could possibly have some merit too.

Check out NXT, you will see it is one of the only truly innovating altcoin in 2013-2014. The price is still low because the community is not really advertising it yet, since some aspects are still under development, and because many people think NXT suffers from serious flaws, like pre-mining, that are just myths, debunked here http://wiki.nxtcrypto.org/wiki/FAQ.

I personally put 10k in it one month ago. I'm so glad I did. I have stakes in many altcoins (LTC, PPC, XPM, NMC, CAT, DOGE, MEOW, UFO, GRC, Reddcoin, LOT, SEXcoin, MMC, DATACoin), some to a higher extent than NXT, but NXT is by far the most promising. I'm pretty confident it will at least double this year.

Sorry, I meant stocks, which you can invest in, on e.g. havelockinvestments.com.
Like Active Mining, Labcoin, ASICminer.
And I'm saying that even though I still have a huge stake (>50 BTC) in them. I'm still waiting for them to recover to a reasonable value but frankly I have very little hope.

1. I would buy out: http://coinmarketcap.com/ and start providing paid advice/tips on the site.
2. I would buy 100 bitcoins today! When the price is at $670.
3. I wouldn't bother bulk purchasing scrypt asic miners, purely by over-mining a coin you sky rocket it's difficulty and then when you then dump the coins on the market it's value dives too, this is because of the the tiny market-caps of some of the scrypt coins, there just aren't that many alt-coin traders with big wallets.
4. I would buy out a moderately successful coin (many of the coin owners would be more than happy to sell to a large investor).

I have stakes in many altcoins (LTC, PPC, XPM, NMC, CAT, DOGE, MEOW, UFO, GRC, Reddcoin, LOT, SEXcoin, MMC, DATACoin), some to a higher extent than NXT, but NXT is by far the most promising. I'm pretty confident it will at least double this year.

Here's a don't: don't invest money in shares dominated in BTC. 90% fail. I lost 100 BTC in 2013 due to investments in failed mining operations.

+1

Buy some more Nxt.  Then give me that 0.5 btc, so I can buy some more Nxt too.

.5 BTC reward if anyone can post an investment avenue that will net me 100% in one year.

Where should I put my money to make the highest ROI?

Here are the things I'm currently considering:
  • Contracting out a company in India/Serbia to produce scrypt ASICS.
  • Helping out Alpa-Technologies by partnering up and expediting production.
  • Start a massive scrypt farm in a warehouse.
  • Investing with Butterfly Labs.
  • Investing everything back into NXT.
  • Starting a new crypto exchange offshore, relocating offshore as well.
  • Starting a high return crypto hedge fund. (I started my business at 16 with only 800 USD and here I am at 19 with 1 Million in total assets.)


Would anyone here take advantage of a crypto hedge fund?
I've been in the game only a couple months but here are my opinions:
1.  If you can make this work, this could be the most profitable route.  I've read that the richest players in the crypto game are the miner manufacturers like KnC.
2.  There are other (supposedly) higher performing companies developing scrypt miners right now.  I can't remember their names but definitely check them out before jumping in with Alpha.
3.  I think this could be a good avenue depending on how cheap you can get the hardware.  Right now GPUs are insanely overpriced but perhaps you can strike a deal with a certain manufacturer if you buy in bulk.
4.  I would not jump in bed with BFL.  Horrible reputation and I believe they're facing legal trouble because of their failure to deliver.
5.  I would not recommend putting all your eggs in one basket as far as cryptos.  If I had to though, I would go with Ethereum.  Have you heard of the digital autonomous corporations (DACs) that will be possible in Ethereum?  I believe that has the potential for massive opportunity and I would definitely prepare for opportunities that arise there.
6.  This could be a smart and profitable venture long term.  If I were in your position I may go for this one.
7.  This might be the most fun and it sounds like you may have a nack for it.  I highly recommend you start with lower amounts to learn how cryptos get their value and which qualities give their coin long term value.  Its not as straightforward as you would think.  There are poles which ask people on here what they look for when investing in a coin, but that doesn't always correlate with reality.  Congrats on your success, my goal is to be in your position someday  ;D

Edit: For some easy (but risky) gains, I would take 1 or 2 btc and invest them each in a coin whose prices is in the single digit satoshi range like corgi, karma, burbu I think, etc.  With each price fluctuation by 1 satoshi with 1 btc you can make about .2 btc.  Also, if a coin happens to take off and you managed to buy in on one of these coins at 1 satoshi, you'll see some very nice gains.

With 200K I suggest that you diversify and not put everything in one basket, some suggestions from my side:

- Invest in a mining company life PETAMine, that will provide u with some passive income from dividends.

- open ur own scrypt mining company, I'm sure ull find a company in India willing to take on the project. 2014 is a v profitable year for scrypt asics

- Invest in crytpo assets, like ethereum. Bitshares,

- Startup an offshore exchange in one the tax free islands , lobby their government to legalize bitcoin and go from there.

No, I haven't looked much into Nxt but that's intriguing.  What draws me to Ethereum though is its Turing complete language and decentralization.  I am mad I didn't get into Nxt at the beginning though.

Post by: BitCoinPokerBro on February 09, 2014, 01:54:38 PM
First of all I assume you have this money in fiat form.

If the current short term trend keeps going down here's what I would do.

Wait till btc is below $500, $400 if possible.

1. Buy $25,000 worth of bitcoin.

2. Invest 25,000 in several new creative coins at a vary cheap price. (do your research to figure out what a cheap price would be compared to what the coin should be worth 6 months down the road)

3. Wait 6 months to a year. Bitcoin should be close to $800 - $2,500. This will also mean these now 1 year old alt coins will be worth much more (compared to bitcoin or litecoin) than they were when bitcoin was @ $400.

Back in july a simple $100 investment into infinite coin @ 15 LTC satoshi netting about 100,000,000 IFC (when bitcoin was $100 and litecoin $1/2) would be worth over $10,000 today. Low risk compared to how much capital you have available. With the potential to reap serious rewards. Then figure out how to get those profits out of the market without totally crashing the coins economy.

The other $175,000 could be put towards a "crypto hedge fund" or Opening a high quality crypto exchange for steady long term gains. Alternatively take a long vacation because we're talking about the potential for 5,000% to 10,000% ROI. Do the math.

There's a huge market for a USD to alt coin exchange. At the moment everyone has to go through BTC via Mt Gox/Bitstamp to buy alt coins. Dogecoiners just want to buy DOGE not BTC. Same for other altcoins. Open up an exchange in a tax haven of your choice and you'll have huge jump on your competitors (none, as of yet).

Hi there. I just want a shot at your 0.5 BTC because I think I can get it.

The best thing for a good ROI right now with low risk is that to buy gold. If you check out what China is doing right now, you will understand why. They know that the dollar will default soon because the Federal Reserve is printing money like never before. Thus inflation skyrockets and the ~8000 tons of gold aren't enough to back up the dollar, and the huge debt. Lately, from 2009 China imports gold and is minting gold from Africa, Europe, everywhere. The Swiss said that they are running 24/7 for a year now, smelting gold bars from the back of the deposits, melting bars from the '60 to supply the hunger of China http://www.arabianmoney.net/gold-silver/2013/12/08/secretive-swiss-gold-refiners-have-struggled-to-provide-40-tonnes-of-gold-a-week-for-china-or-2000-tonnes-this-year/ (http://www.arabianmoney.net/gold-silver/2013/12/08/secretive-swiss-gold-refiners-have-struggled-to-provide-40-tonnes-of-gold-a-week-for-china-or-2000-tonnes-this-year/) . If you look at the reports of Hong-Kong and China, they have around 6000 tons of gold stacked up until now, but the gov. doesn't say nothing official about the imports. They are importing around 2000 tons this year and this is only what we know about it. They are announcing on the national television and urging people to buy gold and silver. http://www.ibtimes.com/chinas-central-bank-may-be-stocking-gold-report-1543333 (http://www.ibtimes.com/chinas-central-bank-may-be-stocking-gold-report-1543333) and listen to this http://www.noblecoins.com/Gold-and-Silver-Investment/Gold-investment/china-promoting-buying-of-gold.html (http://www.noblecoins.com/Gold-and-Silver-Investment/Gold-investment/china-promoting-buying-of-gold.html) . They want to back up their current money with gold when the dollar will default. Also gold and silver are -70% of the value what they usually are but the downfall of all of this is that you'll have to wait. It is a sure win.

A investment with a  higher risk is what nobody has right now. Building an exchange in a fiscal paradise like Netherlands, Ireland, British Virgin Islands etc. There are some in Africa too, you won't have to pay taxes and the gov helps you build your business. A crypto market with low fees for the rich will ensure you a gateway thru which they can invest in the cryptocurrency world. Think about that, help them to funnel their money thru your market. Help them be more anonymous. I think that this is the best opportunity for them to diversify their portfolio with you offering exchange from gold to usd, jpn to cny and the Russian ruble. You can implement margins leverages etc like a real Forex market only that you must back up that leverage with BTC and you don't go on red. An exchange market where people can deposit with little, under 1%, or no fee and withdraw in most of the fiat they like with no tax on profit and high level of anonymity, this is what I call a sure success.

If you would rather think of these two investments opportunities and have a profit consider donating under 1% here  13u72xsQEAk4rSw4VBkZ237bUqEeq3kY23. Thank you for reading.

buy hashing power from CEX:IO and sell it when you're done with it. $200K will buy you just over 45THS. At that rate you would make over $1500 a day and probably about $40K a month. Take half of that $40K you make a month and purchase more mining power each month, which would be an additional 4THS per month at the current cost per GHS. After 6 months you would me around 70THS, and making $2300 a day or somewhere around $60K-70K a month.

In a year you would probably make your money back and then some. Once you're done, sell your hashing power back to the exchange for whatever the going rate is. Currently it's about $4.30 per GHS. In a year it might be back up when BTC has gone back up in value. So in theory you would make a profit selling your hashing power after making fat stacks of cash in the cloud mining realm.

Buy $200k in scrypt-mining equipment from Tiger Direct.  Make sure you get the Square-Trade warranty coverage on *everything.*

Your goal would be to mine as much as you can, but make sure that you run your miners 24/7 as your goal will actually be to kill everything before your warranty expires.  When buying individual components, Square-Trade will reimburse you for the full purchase price of each component when they fail.  Essentially, it's an almost fool-proof way to buy free miners (minus the initial purchase price, which you will get back anyway when your rigs die).  Totally legal, completely legit, and it's worked for me every time.  The employees there know completely what I'm doing and they are always very helpful in working with me.

this is such a stupid thread.

In all seriousness, If i had 200K to invest in crypto currencies, i'd take a sensible approach.

IMO, DRK and NXT are quite strong and have a solid future.  I'd put $20k into each.

I'd put another $20K into LTC, I think once asic's really kick in the price will be pushed up.

Then i'd spend another $20K on scrypt asics - ie actual hardware

Final $20k on hosted scrypt asics.

As for the other $100K, keep it up your sleeve for the moment.  Very volatile industry, good to have money should you need it to invest down the track a bit.

100% yield is only possible for new industry or if you come up with a new innovative product.

You're better off getting behind your own coins, cornering and manipulating the market upwards with your BTC backing it and cashing out 50-500% returns on the pumps. That's how it works.

$25,000 NXT
$50,000 Ethereum
It really seems like one of these will be a huge winner, maybe 1000%.  Kiss the investment in the other goodbye, but it won't matter because the winner will see huge profits (this is more than a year out though)

$125,000 to Warren Buffet.  Yes, that is blasphemy on this forum, but the guy has a proven track record of making big profits year after year.  Not 100% in a year, but enough to cover a lot of your losses with Ethereum/NXT if for some reason both don't make it. 

I think this breakdown is very reasonable.  It is similar to how I am investing and will invest when Ethereum comes out.

Not aware that Ethereum is taking money from investor.

What is the catch? That is, how do you profit from Ethereum investment?

All around Ethereum is surrounded with a giant question mark, but one thing.  They want to be the underpinning technology that allows other people to completely rewrite everything, to basically take over the world of financial everything. 

They aren't taking any money, but at some point they will sell "ether".  Their ether is kind of a huge gamble.  It'll either be worth a lot or people will throw their money away.  Right now so much hype is surrounded around them that people are lining up to throw money at them.  That means to me that there will probably be a huge crash after the free market takes effect.  But again, this is a totally new deal and for a newbie like me, it is just too hard to know, so yeah, when ether comes out I am going to line up and give them my money like all the other sheep.

.5 BTC reward if anyone can post an investment avenue that will net me 100% in one year.

Where should I put my money to make the highest ROI?

Here are the things I'm currently considering:
  • Contracting out a company in India/Serbia to produce scrypt ASICS.
  • Helping out Alpa-Technologies by partnering up and expediting production.
  • Start a massive scrypt farm in a warehouse.
  • Investing with Butterfly Labs.
  • Investing everything back into NXT.
  • Starting a new crypto exchange offshore, relocating offshore as well.
  • Starting a high return crypto hedge fund. (I started my business at 16 with only 800 USD and here I am at 19 with 1 Million in total assets.)


Would anyone here take advantage of a crypto hedge fund?

buy bitcoin, wait a couple of months voila 100% return. no need for the tip I just like being helpfull.

I would avoid throwing money at NXT.  It still hasn't recovered to the capitalization it had back in January / February, largely due to the public being aware of the scam-like distribution.   Anything NxT has isn't proprietary (patented) either so it's generally a bad investment as other coins will take on their best ideas.  The only thing investible in cryptos is community, it's the reason why a $hitclone like Doge is worth more than NxT, Counterpart and Mastercoin.

 Not sure if it would merit a full $200K investment but, if I were you, I would try to buy two shares of NEM at the upcoming auction and then at launch purchase more of it.

I am sure that anybody with a NEM share will see way more than a 100% return,  To be honest, I would be surprised if it was under a 10,000% return in a year but we are only talking about a fraction of a bitcoin, not $200,000.  These means a person can invest 0.1 bitcoins and in a year it will be worth 10 bitcoins.  I am pretty sure this is more than realistic, but again, it is more of a micro-investment.  (Full disclosure, I have a share of NEM, but I have it because I believe what I am saying)

Totally legal, completely legit, and it's worked for me every time.

Many asshole activities are totally legal and completely legit, that doesn't mean you are not being an asshole when you exploit a loophole.

Explain to me how I'm exploiting anything when I clearly mentioned that they know I'm a miner.  It's nothing I have to hide because I'm abiding by policy.  Hell, I even downclock my cards.

This coming from a guy that joined crypto after the Nxt IPO, such knowledge!  I'm going to hold an IPO for a coin and sell 1k BTC worth, but I'll disguise my greed as fair distribution.  Please explain how the developer planned to only have 73 people invest in his IPO, which was public and open for a full 2 months.  What a tired argument.

In other words, it's impossible only for old industries with nothing innovative to offer. Shocking.

This makes a lot of sense, however I would switch Nxt with Ethereum. Nxt has first mover advantage, lots of clones are already built on Nxt, without talking about the AE and all the thing that's already built on top of it. With each day passing Ethereum is taking more steps behind.

I was thiking like you for a long time but Ethereum is just taking too much time, in my opinion. And as you said, it will almost certainly be overpriced at first.
