first of all i have to say, if you believe that bitcoin price is going to rise, holding your bitcoins is the best option for you.
but if you want to invest. since 50BTC is around 11500$ you might have a good chance of investing the fiat into some business and get a good profit out of that with much lower risk than any other bitcoin investment. the business that i am talking about can be different in every country so you have to ask people close to you.
if you want to invest bitcoin [not fiat] the thing that i like to do with my stash is investing them in altcoin market and do a little trading. the profit can be good if you know how to do it.

Hmm, 1 year ago, I would prefer trading. I earned 60BTC from altcoin trading last year. But I was scammed by some shit altcoins and lost my all of bitcoins, I was broke.
can you tell me more about what strategy you used for trading altcoins?, what coins you purchased?, any method you used?, sounds interesting trading altcoins, would love to hear from you, i personally had few hundred thousand stellars and made some profit. unfortunately nobody is going to give out their successful strategies to other people. at least not for free. this is something that you have to learn by lurking around, reading and getting your hands dirty by trading stuff yourself. and most people who ask for money in return to giving away the strategies and information are mostly scams, or pump groups trying to get a coin pumped so that they can dump it.

hi. i am interested to use a bot for my tradings, so i was wondering if anyone uses one that is good or they are happy with. a bot that is working with most exchangers, preferably bittrex, cryptcy and polonoix
i prefer it to be open source, so i can do some changes to the coding. i don't want to do it from scratch.

Started trading on Monday!
Bought 100 ParkByte (PKB) at 0.00000355 Bitcoin (BTC). Sold 100 PKB at 0.00000375 BTC.
Made a profit of 0.00002 Bitcoin which worth around 0.004490 United State Dollar (USD).
good work. try to invest in multiple coins every time you want to buy and sell. there are a lot of coins that are giving profit every day. and if you can find them beforehand and invest in, you can get an easy and bigger profit every time. also by spreading your investment between multiple coins, you guarantee profit. if you lose 1 others will cover the losses. but if you have invested in one coin, and it goes down you lost your opportunities. Thanks for giving me those tips. Those will come handy.. sometime later.. :/ - see below. You should go to bittrex to trade. There are lots of altcoins and volume is good. There is a good chance you can catch some rising altcoins.
Hmm.. I think I'm going to withdraw what I have at YoBit.Net and start daytrading at Bittrex. Already deposit 0.02 Bitcoin into my Bittrex account. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Why withdraw all from Yobit? Well, bought 1000 PTA at 0.00000536 each. The next day it became 0.00000236. I hold on to those coin believing it value will rise again. I'm wrong, now it is only valued at 0.00000051. :/. 3rd June 2015Bought 1000 Pentacoin (PTA) at 0.00000536 Bitcoin (BTC) each. 12th June 20151000 PTA worth around 0.00051000 0.00051000-(0.00000536*1000)= -0.00485 Profit. I'm not giving up. I will be trading on Bittrex soon. Will update this thread again. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . that is why there are conditional trade offers available. for example you place condition that if the price changes XX% then buy or sell. this way you can be safe even when you are asleep. and don't worry about losses, i did that with NLG (i think) i bought at 600 just to see it fall to 400 and then gave up on it ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

bitcoin is always my first choice and will stick to it forever ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) nowadays i am thinking about startcoin, not sure though. what do you guys think about it?

i have heard that their data is not completely accurate but who would check the price at coinmarketcap?!!! and be affected by the result. everyone checks it at their exchanger not coinmarketcap. and i don't really understand how it can hold coins back from going up!!

I was thinking about investing 0.10 total btc into really low value altcoins between 1 satoshi to 10 satohis. I would invest 0.01 in each coin and buy as much as i could, then just wait for the price to grow, if it does. I mean if one goes from 1 sat to 10 sat you are already gaining x10 and every other coin could go to shit, at least you would have gotten your money back, things like this have happened, dogecoin went from shitty price to 120 satoshi once so its not a crazy idea, right? Obviously i would not buy just any coin but those with a little bit of potential, any ideas?
actually i had this exact same idea a while back. i was thinking a coin that is worth 1 satoshi, i buy at a and sell at even low price of 2, this means that my investment is doubled. and there is nothing wrong with this assumption except that you can not sell your coins. looking at coins that are already below 10 satoshi, i realised that (at least the ones that i checked) are dead and the price is only dropping. this means that if you buy at 1 satoshi, it may go below and become 0.5 satoshi and this means you halved your investment instead of doubling it.

How often can you lose 10 times in a row? Or 20 times in a row with odds of let us say 49.5%.
it varies. mostly i lose 1-2 times in a row and after a while one 5-6 times comes and at the end there is a big 20 losing streak coming up that leaves me bankrupt ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Light Version doesn't work for me. i selected light version on my pc, and when i clock roll, the button just says rolling and nothing else happens. also the my bets section still says "You haven't bet yet" and no change at all. i switched to automatic betting and the result is still the same.

BTC is steady but many alts have had 2-5 fold gains in the past month... you have to say every week! or every day while bitcoin price is stable at 220-230 there are many altcoins that are being pumped everyday and give some people 2x, 3x, 10x profits. ~~~ Many altcoins are being used as money more than bitcoin. ~~
which altcoins and where can i spend them?!! links or didn't happen ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Isn't there enough free porn on the internet ?
only the ordinary stuff, some more rare kind of porn are not easily finded in pornhub youporn ecc, you need to subscribe to those site tha offer the demo for free(there are plenty of those) i tried with torrent, but there wasn't everything, not to mention that with torrent file, you can come across some virus, not advisable.... i have downloaded hundreds of different kinds of files from torrent and not once i have been infected by a virus, nor even downloaded a virus. as long as you search for torrent in a good popular website, which removes files that contain any malicious file and you download from trusted uploaders and check the comments and ranks before the risks of getting infected is minimal, and near zero

The best investment method i think is trading. But you must know about market price before you try it. You can hold your BTC for several weeks or months than you look market price. The other way is altcoin trading. It's faster than BTC trading, but it has high risk, so i don't recommend it. The last thing i want you to know, be careful when you choose trading site or you'll lose your BTC ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) i want to add that with great risk comes great rewards. especially now that bitcoin market is stable and boring, altcoin market is a good choice for getting some good profit out of it. of course it is not easy and not for everyone to jump in and start profiting, it is a good way to double or triple your investment in a short time.

currently i mostly save up my bitcoins that i earn, and additionally i try to buy some more if i can afford it and the price is right. but other than that i try to do some altcoin trading with my bitcoin so that they are not just sitting there, and i try to earn some profit this way. also i do some gambling, but i try to keep it minimal so when i lose i don't get much sad.

my excitement level is around 8
but i think about bitcoin a lot everyday, since i invested in bitcoin, it is a part of my daily routine to come here, go to coindesk for price, go to my exchanger and place some offers, ....

you should contact James Cameron with your ideas, he might implement them in the upcoming Terminator movie. we could see Emilia Clarke talk about bitcoin in the movie which is going to be cool ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) edit: added a quick [crappy] photoshop ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Hey Bitcoin Community! Essentially, I would like to know if you would ever consider taking out a loan in bitcoin? If you have previously taken out a loan, please share your experiences! What were the pros and cons, and what would you improve? Thanks ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) i have never taken a loan in bitcoin and i don't think i would ever do that. the bitcoin price is so volatile that can change any minute which makes taking a loan in BTC high risk (for me!) but i think the main reason for me was that i have never needed any amount of bitcoin that i already didn't have in my wallets. i was thinking about giving out loans myself but the loan section is full of people doing that right now so i think there is no place for new blood ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

No.
But here is some food for thought.
What if there was a global black out, some how... wouldn't bitcoin be vulnerable to someone with solar powered computer and internet access?- (an engineered global black out just in case you were going to say that there wouldn't be internet access"
this scenario looks science fictiony to me! but in case that happens and somebody or some group of people that has access to power and mine all the blocks and get the rewards. i think two things can happen: 1) everyone, after knowing this, will dump their coins and bitcoin price will fall. 2) since the blocks witch was mined was by a single person or group, maybe there will be a way to ignore all those new blocks and pick up where we left off before the black out. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

This is something I've been concerned about for a while now. I just read about it happening for the first time recently. If someone knows you have BTC, they can easily rob you of it at gunpoint. I could see this happening a lot once the price goes nuts again.
I think not carrying a phone full of bitcoin goes along the same common sense line of not carrying a wallet full of cash. I don't see how this is a story. People get mugged all the time
I think he means that someone can break into your home and make you give him the bitcoins if you read the article you can see what really happens. the guy (victim) meets somebody unknown on the internet (craigslist) in order to sell his bitcoins in person to him. then they meet up. then he (robber) lures him to a car when another guy shows up with gun and the two robbers steal the poor guys bitcoins. as you see, i don't see any reason why someone can be worried about being robbed of bitcoin and not be worried of being robbed of his fiat in his back pocket!

option three! a little bit of both i believe that bitcoin was a revolutionary technology that changed the financial world and it is going to be around for many years to come. Bitcoin has great potentials. and as far as price goes, no one can tell. but i think it is going to grow. and surely it is going to have other bubbles too. as long as it has some flaws it is not going to be as big as it can be.

to be honest, for me, the most usage that i have got out of bitcoin is another way of earning money. from the first time i have been introduced to bitcoin i started earning it. i started tiny, from faucets to signature campaigns. now i am into trading and i am earning bigger.
..A way to save your extra money meh, not that much.
..A get rich quick hope/prayer nah, i mean i have been earning bitcoin by trading and all but never thought of getting rich quick by it!
..A way to leave the traditional banking system yeah, a little
..An easier way to send money for less yeah, sure
..What the fuck is a bitcoins? what the f am i doing here if i don't know what bitcoin is ?!!
