(1) I agree with the previous poster. Do not commit all your funds to bitcoin. Decide on a percentage. Diversify. (2) Even for the portion you commit to bitcoin, spread the investment depending on your investment horizon & risk/return appetite. All investments carry risk - you need to balance that risk/return profile. For bitcoin investments, you can consider 3 different strategies e.g. (1) High risk, high return short-term trading strategy ("buy low, sell high"): But can you read the market well enough to generate the best trading strategy? For every buyer of a coin, there is a seller, so who is doing it wrong? (2) Moderate risk, moderate return portfolio investment strategy e.g. Keza ( http://www.getkeza.com) as an investment platform. But you need to invest time in selecting the right investment portfolios based on the composition, underlying beta and future outlook. (3) Low risk, low return secured lending strategy (collateralised lending). But need to vet borrowers based on past track record too. I would avoid HYIP, Ponzi schemes, and grandiose promises. http://themerkle.com/bitcoin-investment-startup-keza-unveils-ios-beta-app/https://www.producthunt.com/tech/kezahttp://getkeza.com/ (It's free to apply for a Keza account) |

Recognise that trading is a strategy which requires a lot of attention to market movements. There are many good exchanges (bitfinex, bitstamp, itbit, poloniex). Consider if you can read the market well enough to generate good returns. Learn how to read indicators e.g. Short-term SMA vs Medium-term SMA RSI MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) Fibonacci lines Also consider alternatives for your bitcoins e.g. (1) Moderate risk, moderate return portfolio investment strategy e.g. Keza ( http://www.getkeza.com) as an investment platform. But you need to invest time in selecting the right investment portfolios based on the composition, underlying beta and future outlook. (2) Low risk, low return secured lending strategy (collateralised lending). But need to vet borrowers based on past track record too. Avoid HYIP, Ponzi schemes, and fanciful, unrealistic promises. http://themerkle.com/bitcoin-investment-startup-keza-unveils-ios-beta-app/https://www.producthunt.com/tech/kezahttp://getkeza.com/ (It's free to apply for a Keza account) |

Investments for your bitcoin can generally be separated into several categories. (1) High risk, high return short-term trading strategy ("buy low, sell high"): But can you read the market well enough to generate the best trading strategy? For every buyer of a coin, there is a seller, so who is doing it wrong? (2) Moderate risk, moderate return portfolio investment strategy e.g. Keza ( http://www.getkeza.com) as an investment platform. But you need to invest time in selecting the right investment portfolios based on the composition, underlying beta and future outlook. (3) Low risk, low return secured lending strategy (collateralised lending). But need to vet borrowers based on past track record too. Avoid HYIP, Ponzi schemes, and fanciful, unrealistic promises. http://themerkle.com/bitcoin-investment-startup-keza-unveils-ios-beta-app/https://www.producthunt.com/tech/kezahttp://getkeza.com/ (It's free to apply for a Keza account) |

I think the discussion on the best investments, depends on our definition of what "best" is. Investment returns will generally be correlated with risk, so: (1) High risk, high return short-term trading strategy ("buy low, sell high"): But can you read the market well enough to generate the best trading strategy? For every buyer of a coin, there is a seller, so who is doing it wrong? (2) Moderate risk, moderate return portfolio investment strategy e.g. Keza ( http://www.getkeza.com) as an investment platform. But you need to invest time in selecting the right investment portfolios based on the composition, underlying beta and future outlook. (3) Low risk, low return secured lending strategy (collateralised lending). But need to vet borrowers based on past track record too.

The people who make money through capital gains all have one thing in common. They all "buy low and sell high". You can try to invest them in BTCJam or similar.
I think BTCJam is shrinking in size. They have restricted US lenders/borrowers. Pretty quiet nowadays due to the number of defaults. |
