Bitcoin Forum

Hi there,

I am doing a survey about Bitcoin and need your help!!!!

My master thesis is about Bitcoin and I investigate behavior related to buy them within the next three months. My idea is based on some physiology behavior theories.

I am specially looking for people who know Bitcoin already.

Please take some time and help me out.

Thank you
Simon

My feeling is that the big holders/buyers don't actually hang around this forum as much as you'd like and will surely not answer to your survey. Just fyi.
However, I will try to help and give you some answers.
Good luck!

Seems good! all th best for your project

questions answered. I thought it was time consuming, but I was surprised, was very fast.
Good luck in your survey

Done. In my opinion Bitcoin is buy at tis prices and sure i will buy all i can afford before he bounce back to $1k.

May I ask you, what is your major?

In any case, I wish you good luck!

If I will have available money right now, I will buy bitcoin.
When price is low, it's the best time for buying, not selling.
Buy cheap and sell high :)

Im buying Bitcoin monthly dollar cost averaging as long as its sub 350.

Yes, I am a big buyer if it dips again below $200. Small regular buyer in the current range.

probably  ;)

probably yeah.. :)

I support you, it was good to check it and answer.

I will buy $1200 worth bitcoins next month

answered your surbey, post the results!

i am buying every month $50 worth of bitcoin. i think i will keep doing this for more months if price is under $300

Yes the next three months god willing i will be here to be able to buy btc, the price is at a good entry for most who missed the first pre bubble buys and even those have held from the 1000+ they have a chance to average down and claw back some moneys or they will just lose more but you will not know unless you try an the saying you have to be in it to win rings bell.

Finished!  I will most definitely buy Bitcoin in the next three months.

In fact, I already buy every month, at least once a month, to add to my stash.

finished to fill that survey, i most likely will buy bitcoin in next three months
especially if bitcoin value going up like now :)
good luck with your thesis :) happy to see someone do research about bitcoin in educational university

Yup. I will definitely continue buying btc in the coming months so as to increase my investment. I'm still seeing a little bit nice entry point to buy in again, but if the price continue to rise, then maybe I'll wait another time til it drops again to a certain level.

I participated in some similar survey carried out before and so far can't recall if I ever saw any of the results or findings ever been posted. It would be great if those information are made available, most important is the conclusion or outcome after you have collected some data. But just for your information I already have fund allocated, and buy orders set for different price range. Hope that helps.

Loved the survey and loved the fact for the bitcoin and the cryptocurrency in general being approached in research-educational manner.

Done. Great survey. Please consider posting the results, I would be very interested in seeing it!

Quick answer is that smart people will continue to purchase btc... considering the amount of VC $'s and exchanges coming on board the opportunity far outweighs the risk.
it's amazing that you can still get in at this price... I wish more newbs understood that you can buy at any fraction of a coin... just do it for the novelty if nothing else.

I've filled in your survey :)

I hope this info is interesting to you.

I like the survey, I hope that you get useful data out of it!

As it has been said before, there likely isn't a lot of investors on the forum, so the data might be off by a bit.

Most buy at least some % of their earnings a month.

My game plan is to see the 400 mark or 450 mark and sell my holdings and when it drops to 100 buy again,I made the mistake of buying at 300 ballpark and now look at me,i already lost 10 grand on this shit. Playing it smart from now on not trying to get rich quick just going to try and short and get rich slowly.

wow i wasnt sure if this was a psych eval or a survey never have I been asked the same question so many times except on a psych evaluation.

the time to buy is NOT .. three months from now will be too late, probably with a $500 resistance level.  BTC was rock bottom at $220 resistance and now showing big growth trend .. get in NOW is my recommendation, watch it bubble up to $500-$800 then sell off and await the next bubble :-)

NOT=NOW

You know, an edit button exists for a reason...

I'd be interesting if there's another bubble that pops up at some point, especially in the price range that you're suggesting. A lot of people have dropped Bitcoin for whatever reason, so I think $200-$300 is here to stay. I don't want to be a fear monger, but there's a noticeable absence of people on this forum, as opposed to summer and fall last year.

I myself am having real trouble with this at the moment.  My first buy was last week at 228.  I know, it was a great price but I wish I bought more.  :(  Would you guys recommend buying in again at the current price?  Thank you for any replies to this message.  :)

Finished - I think the best thing to do, is to buy every month, whilst the price is low. I pay my bills, then I spend money like I normally do, and what is left, goes into buying BTC

You also buy and sell, when the price is lower and higher, to gain a little extra during the month.

Why ask this question, just based on the next 3 month? The OP did not say, what is his goal with this?

It's really hard to tell 3 months in advance, bitcoin is still so volatile it can be hard to know exactly when to buy and when to sell.

I normally buy BTC every payday, only small amounts like >$50 worth but that can also depend on price at the time.

its going into an upward trend right now you can see it because it stabilizes at about 230 and goes upward from their ,the question is how high will it go?

That is a good strategy! 

Yes. I am intersted to buy bitcoin in the next couple of months, but its depand on rate, If I found certain label of rate then I will buy. In my experience, Prepaid Bitcoin is the best place to buy bitcoin with Paypal. www.prepaidbitco.in

I won't be buying anything in the next three months or likely this year. I plan to hold for a bit to see where bitcoin can go.


I'd buy personally but only you can make this decision.

Yes, I am planning to buy more soon. I am waiting on the hunch that the auction this week may make prices go off a little. So far this has been proven wrong >:(

In 3 months I might buy 1 bitcoin but it depends on a lot of factors, one of it involves getting money from an off-line investment I did  some time back, so if it all works out. I'll buy 1 for sure.

I might buy a bit more if price go down a little.

when i got some spare money, of course.

No. I've bought all the coins I wanted now I'm just going to wait.


You might be able to earn one bitcoin in three months fro your signature. No need to buy then though you could do both.

When price is so low like now, this is very good opportunity for buying, but unfortunately i don't have funds to do this.
Only way how I can collect more BTC is through my signature campaigns.

if you are really interested in knowing the behavior related to buy and sell bitcoin. i assure you that you can not get reliable results this way. first because the buyers with big pockets are not here and not gonna waste time on taking a survey. secondly no one can tell you what he/she is going to do according to buy or sell.

On the rise of the interval, I will choose to buy bitcoins。

You might if the price goes down a little? What is a little? Has it not been low enough for the last 2 months  :D
The time is slowly fading away as a good time to buy we will soon be climbing out of this downtrend ready for the summer.

Luckily i have been buying as much as i can spare and i am happy when we start to rise and will not be panic buying like many  ;D ;D

We are so similar because that same time i will be selling  ;)

You will be buying my profits which i give you many thanks for we need buys on the highs, we are on a rise now have you been buying?

Edit: nevermind, I misread the title. Yes I will "buy" bitcoin, I'm always divesting fiat scrip. I loathe violence and don't want to support blood money.

Ethics can be so inconvenient.

I bought some yesterday, which given the upmove I am quite happy about
Might buy some more if px comes off again

Hi everyone,
thank you for your support. Wow I am impressed that I got so many answers.
Of course I can post the some results as soon I am finished.
Btw. I also bought some as the price was below 200 (but Euro). I think it is a good price to start with Bitcoin.
To give you a little head up. The survey has some good results so far. The idea is to check the significant influence factors on buying Bitcoin. For the next three months is just related to the theory. It is a psychological thing that I had to specifically the time in advance. Perhaps next one month would had been better anyway.
I haven't do a good investigation of the data yet but I found that the difference between a Bitcoin buyer and a non Bitcoin buyer is also related to some part on something we call "perceived behavioral control" that means that there are actually people who would like to buy Bitcoin but see himself not able to because of the knowledge. Anyway something which is already known but I will have a closer look at that fact and will let you know.
In the end I see also the fact that a survey like this catch attention and there are new people who start to get into Bitcoin. Something I think in Germany at least is something good.
Thanks again
Simon

Let me fill that in for you.

I was planing to buy some..but now that the price has gone up,...probably now.! :/

Same here, was hoping to get 5 BTC for a low amount but looks like I'll wait a little bit longer first.

yes, of course. always that is leftover money, going to buying bitcoins

Re: Will you buy Bitcoin within the next three months?

I will buy more in the next 3 months if bitcoin decided to slide below $200. Right now I am done....

in the next 3 months bitcoin is more likely to be pass 500 looks like it is taking off,tomorrow it will be 290 or above

i don't think i will buy any more since the price is going up. i have bought whatever amount i wanted to and saved up when the price was low

If you're involved at all in Crypto and believe in Bitcoin, you have to buy it and continue buying it.

Now, I'm not saying put your whole life savings into it, but buy a little bit each month at least.

If the price spikes up, then buy a little amount of it, just to keep adding to your stash.

If the price dives down, then buy a whole lot of it, to accumulate alot for cheap.

Bitcoin's volatile as hell, that's just what it do.  It's like sailing on a little raft in a huge ocean, there's not enough support, and not enough crew to stabilize the price swings.  Once we get to a point that Bitcoin's like an Ocean Liner, you won't be disappointed...

Your thinking s very good.
This is really the best strategy: buy cheap and sell when price is high.
But, in my opinion, current price is still low and still is good time to buy bitcoin :)

Very low in comparison with last year.

Games, other coins and I would be buying a server in the summer with btc!

will i ? yes ofcource i will price is rite to buy

I will buy within 30 seconds of posting this if i get a ten word post within that 30 seconds....

Go....

You should've bought <200 and <250 when you still had the chance.

Now you can still buy <300, last year people we're screaming how much bad luck they had that they couldn't buy <300 anymore.

Don't be that guy in 2015 8)

This is true 'if' it was to keep rising imagine the people left behind when they could have brought for 300 and it is now 500 we would have a super troll brigade band together and come cause some chaos release some of their anger  :D

Like you said though everyone has the same chance at this point we have got to be in it to win it as the saying goes.

@ OP i have already brought up to this point and will only buy tiny amounts from now i am happy with what i have got.. 

Yes ! i will surely buy some

that's right. but the thing is i am not greedy; i meant that i invested the amount that i needed, and could afford when the price was at its lowest and now i can not afford to invest any more. so i am keeping my position and i am happy with my situation

the survey is still running :-D

 ;D ;D

Yes, I can't help but have BTC in my wallet :P

yes I am also able to do that, but I am not sure bitcoin will penetrate the $1K.

I just hope the price broke $500. and I will buy everything I can and sell it in the $500, and not wait in the price of $1k

I will be buying bitcoin in the next 3 months.
Due to the tax situation in Germany, I need to keep my bitcoins for one year before I can sell Tax free.  I bought a tranche in December, but I am feeling confident so will buy another lot in the next few weeks.
I just need to keep them separate so I know when I have had each set for a year.  So far with the price falling it wouldn't be an issue, but I hope for some capital gains in the future.

Please do share it with us when it's finished. :)

You like many my friend last time we had the bubble people was expecting the moon they did not have any idea when it would stop and kept holding thinking it was going higher and higher, now you have many who just want to brake even selling anything close to 1000 i see massive dumps on the way up to anything close to that.
I am a holder but will be dumping also if it gets anywhere near those figures, so you would be right to dump sooner imo of course and i will be buying some in the next 3 months if we get to 220's i have enough but would buy more if we have a little dump.

unfortunately I never buy bitcoin, if the next 3 months there will be a change in the price of good, from now on I will hold my BTC  :)

Probably not. There's always a risk of losing the whole investment and I currently have enough bitcoins to hold onto.

It really depends if I got money after 3 months.

I will but it will really depend on the price.
If someone will sell me low, even the price is at 285, then its a go.

I absolutely will, unless the price suddenly go up more than 50%, in which case I'd have to think twice about it.

I decided to deposit some amount of money every month. If price suddenly go above 500$ I will just cease to buy, but fiat reserves would be ready.

Nope. Done with BTC

i have some more money that i want to invest on bitcoin but i am waiting for a good opportunity. like the last time i bought when the price was at $160. but this time i think i will buy at a higher but if it goes down a little more.

I do not plan to buy Bitcoin in near future. I have some and I try to use them to earn some more like investing (try to avoid Ponzi), some Sport Bets (for fun), looking for good opportunity.
