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.

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.

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 ?

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 ?

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 ?

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 !
