Right now 99% of my holdings are in BTC, the other 1% ETH.

I´m looking to diversify my portfolio a little, the thing is I´m not a trader, I would like to invest in other crypto with the same mentality I follow when I buy bitcoin, which is basically buy, hodl and forget about them. Are there any altcoins that match this criteria ? Or this mentality applies mostly to bitcoin ? I don´t intent to keep checking prices every day.

I was thinking maybe 70% BTC, and 30% equally divided between LTC, ETH,RIPPLE and others.

wow and i was thinking i was "agressive" by having 30% of my assets in bitcoin

alrighty

when does it stop? what requirements i have to meet

In %.

Other cryptos can also be considered.

Right now I have around 30% of my money in Bitcoins and other cryptos. It´s crazy because I consider myself a conservative person and 30% I think it´s a lot. When I first bought bitcoin I imagined having something between 5-10 % at maximum, but as I started to learn and understand more about this universe I just got more and more comfortable with it. I don´t plan in increasing this number, only in case of major dips maybe.

Could be a good ideia depending how long she is going to hodl ( and i´m not even talking about weak hands here )

i made this stupid mistake twice, buying a lot in one go.

the first time i got a nice profit, but the second purchase (which i made some days ago) is getting bad due to this recent drop

all in all I´m about 10- 15% loss from what i invested, i dont worry so much because i´m hodling for couple of years at least, i just need to get rid of the bad habit of checking bitcoin price daily.... soon i´ll move all my coins to an hardware wallet and hopefully forget about it

Temos alguma opção além do básico:

1. Mandar R$ para exchange BR
2. Comprar bitcoins na exchange BR
3. Transferir bitcoins para exchange gringa
4. Comprar altcoins com esses bitcoins na exchange gringa

Veja que é um processo que resulta em diversas taxas. Tem algum jeito mais prático ?

guys, you missing the bigger picture

we all hope in the future to make instant bitcoin transactions as fast we make today with conventional banks, to be able to go out and buy stuff with bitcoins the same way we do today with credit cards, go to btc atms wherever it is and get some cash, and a lot more .... are all those things really unreasonable to wish for the future ?

cause those are the kind of things that a bitcoin ban would prevent, i´m not talking about today where probably not even 1% of the world population even knows what btc is....

sure no one could "ban" bitcoin today, but that´s because there is barely anything to actually ban for....

Bitcoin isn´t big/stong enough to really disturb government and big banks, probably a minor incovenience by now, we see some talks about regulation here and there, but nothing concrete.


But as it gets more popular and a direct impact in their operations start to appear, it´s reasonable to think action would be taken, even making it illegal.


Sure they won´t be able to seize our bitcoins, or stop transactions, but this won´t matter, the support and general belief will suffer major damage, price would crash to hardly recover ever again.


US took down major and global poker sites overnight due to suspicion of illegal activities around it, why should be different with bitcoin ?

down to 4000 $

move along fellas, thing is dead... it´s been a good ride

I see a lot of comments about what “whales” did or did not do regarding bitcoin.

People making plans and decisions counting on the time that “whales pump the price”, or justifying price crash due to “whales decisions”.

 Bitcoin is very volatile, and could be hard to finding a reason of all prices fluctuations, so are we to believe that all ( or the majority ) of things that happen are because whales wanted so ? Some weeks ago btc price crashed considerable, now we in all-time highs, is that all according to their plans?

Who the hell are those people. I mean manipulating betting sites prices, altcoins, even stock prices of companies, I could understand. But bitcoin ? I certain that there are millionaires ( or billionaires ) scattered  in dozens and dozens of different countries that have knowledge and invest in bitcoins. So are these guys like in perfect sync around the globe, just dictating what happens next, while we are simple passengers completely at their will? Am I being naive ?

What concerns me is not the distant future, it´s the present moment, it´s right now. I´m confident BTC will reach the U$ 3000, than U$ 4000, 5000 and so on eventually, regardless of the result of August 1, but those results will be important to determine how fast these values can be reached.


We are getting closer and closer to this day, and there are still a lot of uncertainties, no one knows what will happen, i do think BTC will suffer a considerable fall as we get closer to this date due to all these doubts. I´m considering selling all my BTC, so i could rebuy when things settle down, or if the price indeed falls i could rebuy at lower price. Thing is if i sell now i would lose money, something like 10% of the capital invested, so I´m not really sure.

Everyone here seems very confident that BTC will only skyrocket because of august 1, hope you guys are right.

In exchanges is very simple, i just saw couple of hours ago that btc value suffered a minor crash, so it would be a good oportunity to buy some. The whole process of transfering money to exchange and spending this money in bitcoin took like 10-15 minutes tops.

Obrigado pelas respostas, quando você diz que hoje a diferença de ágio está grande, qual seria um parâmetro de "normalidade"

históricamente, esses 20% é muito ? ou está na média ?

outra dúvida, no site que o amigo sabotag postou ( https://bitvalor.com/  ), nesse momento aparece "AGIO C" 31,60% e "AGIO T" 24,97% , o que exatamente corresponde cada um ?

agradeço a resposta, não entendi muito bem quando vc diz "só esperar o mercado esfriar que já some os 20%" , poderia explicar melhor ?

outra coisa que não entendo, é porque a diferença entre bitcoins comprados aqui no Brasil é tão diferente comparado com o valor em USD, se o bitcoin agora ta valendo USD 2250 por exemplo, por que exatamente ele esta sendo vendido por R$ 9.500 + ??!!!

eu não esperaria que agente comprasse bitcoin pela conversão exata entre USD / R$, mas do jeito que é tá é como 1 USD estivesse valendo mais do que 4 reais !!! ñ entendo esses valores, isso sempre foi assim ? ou tem épocas que essa diferença abaixo um pouco? o que causa tudo isso ?

desculpem pela quantidade de perguntas

Sou novato no universo bitcoin, a única experiência foi comprando R$ 100 bitcoins umas semanas atrás na bitcointoyou e vendendo ( lucrei 5% com essa operação =), infelizmente foi antes desse aumento de preço recente )

Gostei muito do conceito do bitcoin, e gostaria de começar a investir nele. Minha ideia é pensando no longo prazo, coisa de 5-10 anos, talvez até mais.

Com isso em mente minha ideia é a seguinte, investir uns R$ 5000 agora, e depois ir fazendo aportes mensais que podem variar de R$ 50 a R$ 200.

Minhas perguntas se vocês poderem me ajudar são:

1 )  O que acham desse método de investimento, de aporte mensais ?

2 ) O timing é bom pra fazer essa primeira compra que será maior ? Ainda mais com esse salto recente no valor do BTC

3 ) Qual seria a melhor forma de fazer a compra desses bitcoins ? Andei pesquisando e parece ser extremamente difícil comprar direto de exchanges gringas, outra opção era comprar via paypal, de alguma pessoa, será que fica mais barato do que comprar aqui no Brasil ?

4 ) Se não tiver jeito e a melhor forma ser comprar aqui no Brasil mesmo, qual seria a recomendação, vi muitos tópicos comentando da foxbit, apesar de estar em manutenção, quais seriam outras opções ?

Fora as perguntas, estou aberto pra qualquer sugestão e/ou comentários que tenham. Obrigado !

este tópico me mostra que é normal isso
