Bitcoin Forum

Hi,

I know it has been done in the past. I'm in this game a year now. Saw a lot of posts that the majority of member don't have more then 1 btc. Because I'm a noob and I have more, I was just curious if it's still accurate ;D

If everybody is right that's only a very small percentage, we will see....

0.1 but how do i vote

You may need to have more activity (beyond Newbie) to access the poll. However when others open the thread the poll is accessible immediately at the top of the thread discussion, above the original post.

I agree with others that you should add BTC amounts into the double and triple digits. I'd be interested in knowing how many respondents have big volumes of coins (potentially from the earlier days).

Currently: very low amount.

Currently almost nil.  :D
But hope to get to 1 BTC by the end of this year.

It will be interesting to see results from your poll, but of course self-reported btc balances are a bit unreliable, at best.

Any bitcoins I get are from the primedice campaign lol. I usually try not to spend too much on things so around .1.

Most younger members here do not own more than 5 btc.

If you check the coin on wallet distribution, less than 10% of the wallet owned more than 10 btc.

I would have 4 if havnt been robbed by hacker :-[

none right now, waiting for price to go lower before accumulating them. Will buy few every $50 drop from $450 downwards..

great strategy! It will lower your cost of BTC you are holding. But there are a few people who have faith with and BTC and patience. 

Your vote is not effecttive, i think you should add :
1. between 0 - 0.001
2. between 0.001 - 0.005
3. between 0.02 - 0.05
4. between 0.05 - 0.1
5. between 1 - 2
5. between 3 - 5

you should ad this, because lot member have less than 1 BTC  ;D
they usually got BTC from signature-ad campaign / giveaway / faucet / small trading / altcoin vote

but, i still doubt who will vote honest if they have more than 1 BTC ???

A year ago the poll may have looked something like this:

1. < 1
2. 1 - 10
3. 11 - 50
4. 51 - 100
6. > 100

How times change.  :)

Changed the poll, looks like the winds have changed and the majority holds over 1 btc ;D, let's see HOW much :)

Smart investors would cash out and reduce the holding while the time is still good. Dump one will increase the position when time is good and only cash out when time is bad.

Please vote then :)

I exchange to cash when i had > 0.3 and keep about 0.1 in wallet for gambling only.
No one vote  that have more than 10 btc :(

I've been on this stuff for only 2 months now and so far I manage to get 0.3btc, most of which were spent to my school funds and some personal stuff. It's very interesting to see that the wealth distribution among the bitcointalk members vary greatly than what I expect it to be. xD

You're telling me!

Noone with large stacks of crypto wont come out and say their true value of holdings.
But its interesting to see that the amount of holdings converted in USD remains about the same, while in BTC it goes down more and more.
I myself have only 2 btc that i keep no matter what, everything else i sell, since i cant gamble with big sums, i just dont have the patience and nerves to do so.

I am also just buying when going to spend them right away. I am not a speculative guy.

I will have 0.12 btc from signature campaign next week!

i doubt that only 3 person have more than 50 here, where are all the early adopters?

maybe they don`t vote much more have more than 50

A lot of early adopters prefer to use biticoins rather than to hoard them. After all, that's what it's all about. Bitcoins are worth nothing until you use them, and if everyone hoards them, they will be worth nothing.

I admit at the minute I never keep more than 1BTC in coin... I don't think tis bubbling yet but when it does I have a lot of fiat ready to be converted...

it's better to use them directly though, not through fiat

I just sent 3 BTC and destroyed 421 Bitcoin days. I've got quite a bit more than that.

Rockin' a solid 0.12 BTC as of now! :D

My BTC balance is a secret  ;D

But I can tell you that most of what I have has been put into altcoins,
the majority of which is Monero (XMR)

let us see how many whales participated in this pole  ;D

Zero. Just sold my last bitcoins for an iTunes gift card. Being addicted to a game is really a bad habit. Especially when the game suck your $0.99 every hour. Haha

I did have 10btc but I gave it to Dank, his doing it tough with about to go homeless and all his crazy thoughts. Lol
This is a joke by the way, if you read a few read Danks posts u would know what I mean.   :D

Just have started currently around 0.5xxx Btc buying some more in near future just researching on till then

Members who post regularly on forum probably don't hold that much btc.

Since majority of them are wasting time rather than working on something more productive.

I still have my XMR which I bought ages ago. Still not seeing legit gains. Of course I had to buy in the middle of the first bubble, fucking bad luck from hell damnit.

Until now I am still have a small mount of bitcoin, plus more rating currency of bitcoin is tends to decrease, maybe it is because there are some alternative cryptocurrency tends to increase.
hopefully this condition become better, and rating of bitcoin will tend to increase ....

I own something lik 1.23xx bitcoin done a lot of daytrading to make this up here and struggling hard to make it two coins soon.

I only have 0.05, so it's less than 0.1 and I feel very poor but I'm trying to increase them.

0.2 bitcoin, soon will get more if the price drop.

BTCD all the way.  BTC is a dinosaur imho. 

Have 1 now, going to buy more soon if the price is right.

My holdings change every two-three months because I am trading them mid term, but at the moment I have about 0.7 btc.

I have 2 bitcoins and they are secured in a cold storage wallet, I won't trade them.

Vote Between 0.1 - 0.5
I just had 0.2 BTC, 0.1 BTC I put in blockchain and the rest I put in the exchange
I hope to be 1 BTC more, wow there are many who also have higher then 50 BTC

i vote less than 0.1BTC

because i just have 0.05 BTC and put them into my blockchain

I think that many users are cheating :)
I have one whole bitcoin, just finished to buy it.

Some but then again I wouldn't trust the survey XD
Then again it is greater than 1 at least ^^

0.015 this is my current balance. :-[

Keeping your BTC balance secret really is a good idea. By telling others how much bitcoin you have, you are opening yourself up to potential attacks as people know exactly how much they have to gain if they are successful in stealing your coins.

Keeping your money in altcoins however is a horrible idea and outweighs your above good idea as alts are more or less worthless.  

500k of some of bitcoin divisions(Satoshis, Mbtc, Btc. uBTC, centbitcoins, etc...). This i the most I will say

Not as much as I would like is how I feel about it
I will leave it at that  :D

I have too many bitcoins to write the amount here.

...no I've got only 0.53 btc :(

0.05 bitcoin received as a gift from a friend, I don't know what to do with them.

a lot of different btc holders, from 0.05 BTC TO 100 + BTC. Personally 0.1 +
