Didn't know there is a Bitcoin Investment Trust  8)

Don't put everything on Bitcoin.

Only don't lose everything warranty you can have.

The best way is not to invest anything that you can't afford to loose.

Try some giveaways from bitcoin gambling, This is kid's way to collect dust. :P

That's what I am doing as well, the money I have in bitcoin is the amount that I can afford to lose. But I would love to see the "risk" to go away and potentially have 50/50. Maybe we'll see that in 3 years :)

Like the concept of cryptocurrency portfolio including BTC, litecoin, doge, darkcoin, Nxt etc.

this thread is just a reclame...

Don't panic,have patience and invest wisely after doing a quick research.Making quick money isn't possible investing the bitcoin itself.

You also can get some satoshis with faucets  :D

At first glance, I thought it was about the price going to zero.
Then I realized that the article also talks about the security aspects involved.

As if you are getting in just now, I would say Bitcoin is a definitely a long term investment. If you are seeking a getting rich quick sort of scheme, that ship has already sailed for you. I am personally looking forward to seeing what happens when all Bitcoins are mined and buying them is the only way to get them.

My advices for people considering investing in Bitcoin are:

- Keep it simple; don't trust Bitcoin investment services or exchanges to store your Bitcoins. Store them encrypted offline on USB stick or paper wallet.
- Don't panic sell if price plummets. It will get back up in the future.
- Don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
- Make an investment plan a stick with it.

Good luck for all investors! :)

The simplest way would just to buy a bit of bitcoin with some spare cash every month and just the amount you are willing to gamble or risk. I disagree about 'diversification' into other alts from the article though. I very much doubt 99% of these other alts will be worth mcuh in the future and you'd be better sticking with just bitcoin.

Yes, but if you have nothing better to do and live in a country where dust = something, why not?

just invest what you can afford to lose, but personally i think that bitcoin is a safe investment, i would invest 50%

i think BTC is not a safe investment and so you should remember that you can lose 100%.

Here is a method for people, who cannot buy BTC with fiat. {Or those, who have internet access, but no money}

Step 1
Get all your friends together ---> Create a "online" wallet for each of them ....Show them how a "faucet" work. {Register them with freebitco.in & http://faucet.bitcoinzebra.com/faucet} Use my referral, if you like the idea..PLEASE  ;)
http://faucet.bitcoinzebra.com/?ref=ae650bf156d4
http://freebitco.in/?r=460370
http://freedoge.co.in/?r=25939 {Dodge}

The 2 top faucets are paying and they have a referral system. {This is the best part ---> Build your referral system, to have at least 20 active people.}

Every time they use the faucet, you get 50% of their income. {So you do not have to do anything}

Step 2

Create a account on CEX.io  https://cex.io/r/0/Kprawn/0/

Configure the site to pay out to your CEX/Ghash bitcoin address.

Use the payouts to buy/trade to GHs and re-invest your bitcoins received from this "cloud mining" to buy/trade to more GHs {So the faucet money, creates more income for you, on a daily basis}

After a while, you do not have to solve captha's anymore - Your referral system generate passive income for you, and that is paid into "cloud mining" and the cloud mining grows to a point, where you get passive income daily. {You keep on buying Ghs until you have enough to give you some good bitcoins daily.}

Remember to configure your accounts with 2FA and all the security you can enable. {Change your passwords frequently}

Leave no money in the exchange, send it daily to your "paper wallets"

And that is how you make money out of nothing.  ;D

Yes, alts seem to have their day under the sun, and then fade away very, very quickly.

Buying Gh/s in cex.io is EV+ ??

Get some of that FIAT cash you get every month by being a wage slave into Bitcoin, slowly build a BTC. It's what im doing and im about to get my first BTC after a fucking year. Sig campaings help too.

I won't suggest putting a lot in bitcoin, only upto a limit you can afford to loose.  ;)

You could always try buying some mining rigs.  If the btc crashes, you could still sell your rig to return.

I think the title of the article is misleading. If you invest in the bitcoin investment trust via second market you are still taking on counter-party risk that something will not happen to the trust that would cause them to lose the bitcoin you own.

It is also not terribly difficult to secure your bitcoin as long as you can hide the fact that you are the owner of bitcoin.

Well first do not invest everything.

To begin with do not invest everything. And invest it on something reputable and trustworthy

If I have 5 BTC in my wallet. How much should I invest. For example I want to invest it in a gambling site?

Cash it out when bitcoin skyrockets this december.

Actually not surprised there is a website out there that gives you tips :) however not many would listen or even read through them which is a shame. I always live by never investing more than I know I can afford to lose, that way if everything goes south I know I have not lost too much.

Yes, people need to hedge in a way that they don't lose all their savings if one thing should go bust. Also, you could make money by shorting Bitcoin, maybe even on leverage, but this is highly dangerous since you may end up loosing everything even quicker.

Well you should never invest more than you are prepared to lose.

Simple, don't invest everything :-\ :P ;) :D

Do not invest everything you have for Bitcoin. It might cost you your life saving if you will.

Are you willing to invest everything in bitcoin if it goes up to $800?

Its either you are in or you are out.

The best and safest way to invest in bitcoin is to start a bitcoin business

Nice article. As a newcomer I found it really helpful. I got some advance level idea on how to invest on Bitcoin? Thanks for your post.

The faucets's advice seems good to start but the earnings will be really tiny  and cex.io isn't +eV at the moment.

Dont invest everything in order not to lose everything.

i think zencloud is better :D

I suggest not invest in a gambling site.
but can using to trading.

Both faucets and cloud mining are horible bitcoin related investments. I would recommend against them both. If you "invest" in either of these you will either lose your time or your money (or both).

Trading altcoins is very similar to gambling. If you wish to "invest" in the bankroll of a gambling site, this may be a good idea as long as the site you are investing in is reputable enough so that you are confident they will not run away with your bitcoin

not a good idea! The price of hash power is too expensive. It is nearly impossible for you to cover back your initial invested bitcoin. You'd better keep them at cold wallet for the long term.

Think of a very unique way to invest bitcoin. Maybe start a website that accepts bitcoin for service.

It really depends on the price. I would say you should certainly do your homework and see if current prices + current difficulty increase rate would potentially allow you to ROI. They just cut their maintenance fees so anyone that bought GHs in the past few days likely is seeing very nice gains

my suggestion is
Don't put everything on Bitcoin.
because if you want to invest, you must lose something, eg, time, energy, money, etc.

Invest in Bitcoin ATM's and charge a premium from people transacting.

Gambling is not an investment!  :o

If u want to invest some (not all) of your hard earned BTC you should considering trading cryptocurrencies.

You could invest in a reliable platform to gain a % on your amount. Loans could work too but they are risky, because they are held by scammers the 90% of time  :-\

Nice try LiteCoinGuy

Too bad none of us are going to see that day.

Seems like you are telling everybody to transfer to litecoin.

Do no gamble, if you are, only invest in what you can afford to lose.

Do not invest everything.. Easy.

Logical to not invest everything...
