If you had to choose to put 5 BTC into 1 BTC investment, what would that be?

[crazyivan]

I would appreciate a bit more elaborated posts.

Saying, I like XXX and this is why I think it s gonna go up is not really a strong argument.

BTW, thx to everyone who posted.

Plus doog has held a lot more money than this in his long history in the forums

I think that the best investment today is the one that brings 50% per annum.
Diamond looks very attractive to the investment portfolio.
to date, no bank will give you a such a high return on contributions 

...but it also has 50% inflation built in.  Seemingly, it would cancel out any gains
you take.  How is that a good deal?

new design coin rollout picture 2015.06.28
we are actual in the phase where POW rewards already reduced but POS still is for lot months at 50%
but it wont stay on this rate forever as u can see its a constant decrease of inflation


coin rollout pic 2015.05.14

VISUALIZATION OF DIAMOND ROLL-OUT PLAN
(TOTAL COINS AND POW/POS COINS PER MONTH)



RED LINE = new coins each month produced by POW (numbers on right side)
GREEN LINE = new coins produced each month by POS (numbers on right side)
TOTAL COINS (numbers on left side)
numbers on bottom of graphic are the months (the graphic represent a 30 year timeline)

but keep a closer eye on coin specs and check how coin roll-out will develop over next 30 years

beginning with total coins 450000 a 50% POS will be simultaneous active with the 1 DMD POW reward each block
and start the diamond rush (BLUE CIRCLE) on pic

if u analyze that u can see that this POW mining paradise only last a few months
(to be exact until 1 million total diamond are existing)
later most of coins are produced by POS  (GREEN ARROW) and to do so u need to have diamonds

everyone who sell 1 diamonds instant lose like at least 2 diamonds.....
because every diamond u mine now would at least double if u keep holding and pos it over time

the whole design of diamond is to be a wealth storage coin aimed to be a good investment

i  hope this visualization of coin specs long-term effect of  on coin roll-out
can help u realize how valuable diamonds will be once POW is reduced by 90%
and high POS will be main source of coin creation

that coins are required to create more coins (POS)
will be the reason for lower availability of coins on exchanges and increasing prices
remember only coins in ur wallet gather coin-age and can generate POS rewards

So, if you had to select only 1 single BTC related investment to put 5 BTC into it, what would that be?

I know a lot of people re going to say there are no safe and sustainable BTC investments but I strongly disagree. Once you exclude HYIPs and ponzies, you can do well in the crypto world.
What would you choose and why?

i have tried many investment methods and i lost on some of them and gained some profit on some others.

but the only thing that was interesting to me and i could gain a nice profit from was trading altcoins. it is risky but the profit is good, besides i have control over my bitcoin and i do not put my trust in another person's hand like other investments.

also, lately i have been hearing a lot about investing in gambling sites, but i have not yet figured out if it is safe / worth it, to do so or not.

and the result is such a development of price we track DMD/USD DMD/BTC and BTC/USD since september 2014

there is no decrease in value because of POS coin rollout instead there is a increase in value x10 in 10 months
i not predict such gains forever but at least one more time im pretty sure still far undervalued
and even without price gains it would be still 50% POS earnings

@OP, I cannot provide any suggestions as to where to invest,
however I would like to remind you that right now you have 5 BTC which in itself is a good investment.
If you choose to invest your current investment on something else then you might lose that 5 BTC investment you already have.

Stay safe and don't gamble what you cannot afford to lose

a investment in BTC is a gamble too
can be 100$ on few months or 1000$

but beside price chnages u earn nothing from hold BTC

thats why i love well designed coins with POS

not crazy hyperinflation ones

but well desined a pos coin can have  nice POS earnings and still constant decreasing inflation

basical just switch most of coin rollout towards POS instead of POW

coinrollout is coinrollout no matter if POW or POS the effects on inflation are the same

but the big difference is who can profit from coin rollout

mega mining clusters or clever investors

I would just hold on to the bitcoin. 

Or use it to buy some hosting and a domain name. Make a crypto related blog or a site that merges your interests with bitcoin.  I wouldn't want to invest in somebody else's platform.

I use the 5 btc to rent 500th from west-nice has and point it at solo.ckpool.org


As long as  I pay  .0094  per th  for this diff adjusment it is an investment not gambling.



Granted is is a high risk investment   you chance of winning 1 or more blocks is about 20%  but you are getting about 25 btc back for the 5btc.

If you pay more then .0094  per th you are gambling

hmmmm so u say invest 5 BTC for a 20% chance to get 25 BTC is no gambling?

If I lived in a big city.  I would try to sell for a premium on localbitcoin.  Then buy more from cheaper place online.

[michietn94]

Since no investment is save, I'm better to gamble it away.
At least gambling winning chance is higher than invest into ponzi

Cryptonit good answer to the question why investing in some coins more interesting than the expectation of increasing the value of Bitcoins.
I can only add that I bought the coin when the price of diamonds was around 0.0005.
 Now I have a daily income of 12 diamonds a day and I'm happy
