Hold it man, really. Probably in a few years it will be 4-5 k $ and you'll be so glad.

I would wait, clearly. Especially at this time, we are on the eve of the democratic explosion of the BTC, and you might quickly regret it.

if you wait and hold the bitcoin you earn money for sure but it took much of time and the invest have a big jackpot bitcoin if your investment is successful but its very risky its up to you if you go investment or hold your bitcoin.

If I die, I think my bitcoins will still be there in my wallet because except from me, there's no other people who knows my password in my wallet.
But it raises a good question.. I should make some secret paper for my family with the codes

impossible for now,but in the long future it might. It is funny to imagine our son or grandchild use bitcoin.

Yeah, for me this is indeed a true revolution. Bitcoin is changing everything is payment, it is definitely a new era. Though, it won't kill classic currencies.

I won't be shock that criminals and/syndicates use Bitcoin as a form payment. Due to the reason that the industry is decentralized, These people use it as an advantage to transact freely under the radar of the Government. Also due to the anonimity of the user it maximizes the reach of the syndicates/criminals.

I think people sell bitcoins for make profit then when the price is low they will buy it again. Do not worry.

People who missed the chance to invest in bitcoin in it's beginnings missed the chance of their lifetime to become millionaires or even billionaires . Bitcoin proved that it is the 21st century most successful invention and was a model of struggle to get bigger and getting back stronger and more valuable after each hard fork or correction. Yet believing in new things is sometimes hard for people since we live in an environment where the usual fate of everything is to fail and success became the exception not the rule. It was a chance for those who had a futurist look into this wild concept and whoever took that chance is at least 10 times richer than he could've been now.

There's a ton of different variables that can affect where Bitcoin go at the end of two decades, especially now considering that we're looking at Bitcoin in 20 years. Governments from all over the world can make their own stances ranging from dramatically in favor to vehemently opposed, and each country has its own impact.

Chances are Bitcoin will still be going strong, but a lot of stuff can happen in 20 years, especially considering the modern geopolitical climate.

If bitcoin is not ban in your country It should be alright. Bitcoin transaction can't be tracked any way then you will going to be paid in cash directly and personally by the buyer. So It depends on your country

I'm not sure that the presence of bitcoin can overcome poverty, this is because users and who know bitcoin is still small, maybe in my country bitcoin users no more than 0.01%

I say a capital NO to the question in the OP. No, Bitcoin isnt a wise way to invest! It's volatile and unpredictable. It's a risky venture but sadly a lot of people see it as a kind of get rich quick engagement. But if OP expands it to the cryptos (the altcoins included) I would say yes it is a good way to invest one's money. Just look out for potential coins out of the over 900 cryptos and buy to sell off in the future. That way one makes money.

The fact that we are moving towards a cashless society does not seem to me to guarantee the future of bitcoin. The central banks of all major economies have no interest in having the economic market decentralize and lose their position as providers. Currency is first and foremost an economic geostrategic weapon for the major international powers. They will in turn promote and prevent the development of cryptocurrencies according to their interests and the balance of power, but one thing is sure, they will not be passive.

Clearly a risky bet. I won't try it if I were you... You'll end up with all your BTC savings at $0.2 when the bubble explodes while the BTC has every chance of rising very soon...

If you are thinking for a short term investment then you have to take care of the price so you will not lose money in your investment in bitcoin while if you are thinking for long term investment then do not worry as in the long term there is no any lose in investment in bitcoin. The long term investors have already earned a large amount of profit and they are still earning a good income from their investment in bitcoin.

I first hear of bitcoin through Google search engine when I was looking for a way to make extra income without investment. That is where I come across bitcointalt, btcvisit, coinurl and other bitcoin services site online. Since then I fell in love with bitcoin and crypto currencies in general and have developed my knowledge on trading, mining and analysis.

Most people regret selling, I wonder what the stats would be of people that have held until now that haven't lost/forgot their coins.

It entirely depends on your investment objectives, time horizon, risk tolerance and fundamental understanding of the individual cryptocurrencies and the underlying blockchain technology. Cryptocurrencies are a new emerging asset class that demands informed research and a high tolerance for volatility.
That being said, it’s a great time to become educated in blockchain development applications and how this is tied to crypto’s.

Both are currencies. Bitcoin is a digital currency and other local currencies we are using is normal currency with which we can purchase or do anything we need. As bitcoins is a digital currency, we can only shop or do anything only online. We can shop around and do more things online. But with other local currencies, we can do more / lot where we live.
