It can only be given as a % of your portfolio.
I would say 30-50% would be fair for holding long term. 50% is pretty adventurous imo.

The problem with bitcoin is that, as it goes up so does it's % of the portfolio. I find myself at 50% now and i think that is way too much.

I also don't want to sell...

I would base it on your buy in price, though obviously if it levels out at say $1000 per BTC for a sustained amount of time, then you might want to re-evaluate.

If you are going to buy CPUs, make sure they have AVX2 instructions and are overclock friendly like the i7-4770k

Google for benchmarks on Primecoin, Quark or Protoshares

Are you interested in CPU only or CPU + GPU?

Essentially I could like to buy a new PC.  Whilst doing that it would be good if it happened to be good for mining.  I won't be starting a GPU farm anytime soon and doubt I will ever buy an ASIC.

OMFG!!! Im absolutely disgusted at the fact that no one has worked out a simple, easy and effective way of selling BTC via PayPal yet.

Urm find a way then!

WDC seem to have a pretty good forward looking plan and soon you can exchange $ for WDC.
I like the sound of curecoin, though I don't know a great deal about it as it hasn't been released yet!

the great thing about bitcoin is that no day traders can offload during after hours because the market is always open!

but for how much longer? surely the suits will not tolerate this much longer and regulate the living daylight out of the exchanges

FX markets are usually open almost all the time..

On squawkbox they laugh about Bitcoin.  It is always just a funny aside when the price is going up, but another reason not to invest when it goes down.
I think bitcoin is far less of a bubble than the DOW at the moment.
2669  Economy / Economics / Re: Over 9000? on: November 11, 2013, 01:35:43 PM
a long long time, even with bitcoins rate of growth a 30x increase is going some.
I know it has happened before, but this time involves a lot more money changing hand!

Hopefully PPC would be a good hedge, unfortunately Ripple too.

I am also interested in mining future CPU coins.  Is there a simple way to get a great increase in mining speed, assuming you don't have a botnet available to you!
Or is it just as easy as getting an fast CPU and lots of memory?

I don't have enough to trade mine there, I might have to buy some instead!

So I should keep mining on it, or not?
2675  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Invictus Innovations ProtoShares Cheat Sheet | CPU Mining | Fork at Block 12096 on: November 10, 2013, 07:04:07 PM
is http://54.238.185.113 still working? It keeps telling me that it is finding shares but too frequently to be believeable!
2676  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Invictus Innovations ProtoShares Cheat Sheet | CPU Mining | Unofficial on: November 09, 2013, 12:18:30 PM
Can anyone give a quick idiots guide for this new pool? When i run the Pool_miner, i get a benchmark.
I don't know how I give my address in and or if I am mining!  The usage at the top still has the default HOST PTS address part, how do I put my address here?
2677  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Invictus Innovations ProtoShares Cheat Sheet | CPU Mining | Unofficial on: November 08, 2013, 04:57:46 PM
sorry for the noob question, but I am seeing 0.00000 kh/s using the pool.
What am I doing wrong, I recieve the data, I see when it is solved.. but I am apparently not mining?
2678  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Invictus Innovations ProtoShares Cheat Sheet | CPU Mining | Unofficial on: November 07, 2013, 07:03:49 PM
ok, my computer isn't fast (4 hashes per min) but i have only found 1 stale, no orphans and no blocks even though I have been going from the start.
I am going to stick it out until I find at least 1 stinking block!

THIS WOULD BE A REWARD TO THE SHAREHOLDERS WHO TRUSTED THE COMPANY AND DANNY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

The IPVO started 7 weeks ago, you make it sound like we have been invested for years!

Scharmbeck has access to equity reserves on the order of twice the amount to be obtained in the first round public offering of scharmbeck feeshares

so to simplify it a bit: assuming the feeshares sell out you will have about 1500 BTC available to you (about $400k)
