Title: I've got 4 btc. What should I go in on (aka: post what coins you're in on)
Post by: ThePatient on September 01, 2014, 03:10:52 AM
I'm thinking of going in heavy on XMR. Only reason I'm making this, really, is to get more suggestions than just XMR.

If you have 4 BTC in total, let me suggest that you keep 3 BTC in BTC and do what you will with the 1 remaining BTC. XMR would be a solid choice, IMO.

BTC and XMR

Don't put all your coins in an altcoin that is still in it's infancy, BTC is already pretty established and will do good enough on it's own.

I like canth's suggestion of 3 BTC and trade 1 BTC for XMR, it looks it won't go much lower than 0.0042 so this zone is a pretty good buying opportunity imo.

Ask yourself this - if you went into a coma for a few years, what would likely be around then? I feel it's reasonable that BTC would be around - thus the rational for keeping 75% of your coins there. XMR is a great altcoin, but it's 4-5 years behind the momentum and development that have gone into BTC and thus is far riskier. There is a non minimal possibility that either it fails or something with superior value comes along and replaces it.

Keep 2 BTC and put 1 btc into BitShares and the other into something you deem worthwhile.

Keep 2 and invest the rest into BURST, the very first hdd mined coin (Barely any energy use). https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.0  
Also on c-cex, the price has been steadily rising about 50 satoshis per day. https://c-cex.com/?p=burst-btc

It honestly depends on what you are looking for in an investment.


Short term, plenty of suggestions above this one. There are quite a number of short term coins you can invest in that would be great for day traders.

If you are looking for more long term investments, I suggest you get some Litecoin.



Full disclosure, I own nearly all of my holdings in Litecoin and am fully ingrained in the Litecoin community. So you can take my suggestion with a grain of salt.  :)

BTC and XMR

+1 to canth's & hodlmybtc's suggestions.
(In saying this, I do realise that the OP is trying to seek alternatives and already has XMR on his/her radar).

XMR is an excellent coin.  See my sig for a few others.

Maieuticoin (formerly MMXIV). It's mathematically impossible for you to lose money buying at this price. Not to mention it's 50% yearly PoS, so you would even further increase your holdings after 24 hours when they start to stake

Invest it on Aerocoin, plus you can have a chance to win a solid gold bar by holding at least 2000 Aero.

From what I've revealed so far, I hold some DarkCoin and Monero.
It doesn't really matter who invested in what. How do you know that their investment is good/right?
You should start doing your own research, stay away from IPO coins and have fun trading.

You will lose everything. As long as you don't have any insight, you will lose everything.

My tip is to invest in mining gear and mine the ones you find interesting/profitable.

And the best advice of all, don't trust anyone.

well said
Also the problem with these threads lies in the people who are circulating in the altcoin section. Most answer will be: invest in coinX because 'insert random reasons'.
Most of the suggested coins are bad, and only have been suggested because they are invested in it.
I'm not going to tell OP buy in Darkcoin or Monero. Do your own research and decide for yourself.

A large number of the IPO's here have been scams. I'm sure any current IPO dev intending to scam people will recommend you buy his coin.

I would invest some coins, but not all the 4 btc, in the LTB coin (letstalkbitcoin.com coin) because it's very promising,
the remaining money in Monero and Burst coins.

So the best investment right now is :

1. Stellar (good team and now is a very good price to buy) justcoin.com exchange
2. BURST first coin that can be mined by HDD (very low cost of mining and a lot of ppl joining every day) c-cex.com exchange
3. Storjx a very good project (they run on counterparty protocol) poloniex.com exchange

If u invest in all 3 is the best u can do right now ... they all have a very very good price and all the coins have a great Team behind ...

and 4. U can always stay with 4 BTC and w8 for the price to rise :)

If that's BTC to spare, then spread it across 4-6 decent coins. If it's all the BTC you have, I'd only invest 1 or 2 of it.
