Question about different investment other than Ponzi schemes.

[ranochigo]

Thanks for the reply! Yeah I've already downloaded multibit HD as a wallet, but I thought that I would need to run a node if I were to have that account connected to bitcoin's block chain?

I have a macbook pro, so running a full node would take a lot of my memory and stuff... I guess the main thing is, is that I'm confused as to how I can connect my multibit HD wallet to the blockchain on a mac? Also in your opinion is that wallet a secure offline wallet?

I see you are new, that's OK, just read, do research and ask questions.

We say that you are running a node if you have a Bitcoin Core wallet, downloaded on your computer, and synchronized, or up to date. That's running a node! You won't be doing this since your computer will be hit heavily on resources. And that's OK as well.

Multibit is a light weight wallet, with such a design that it doesn't need the whole blockchain in order to work. It synchronizes from servers and validates your transaction without a whole copy of the blockchain. That's all you need to now for now. Google if you want to know the difference between the lite weight and full node Bitcoin wallets.

Multibit is not an offline wallet. That's an online wallet. Offline wallets are paper wallets, hardware wallets, physical Bitcoins, etc..

Ok so I just downloaded bitcoin core and it's synchronizing right now as we speak. But if I were to take my computer with me to work tomorrow and it's not connected to wifi the entire time bitcoin core is synchronizing, does that ruin the progress and you have to start all over again?  Also when it's synchronizing, is that when it's supposed to use 20 GB of my memory? Because when I downloaded it and checked to see what my memory looked like after, it doesn't have anything marginally close to 20 GB downloaded. 

Also, when I end up getting a good amount of BTC down the road and start not feeling so secure about bitcoin core and it's security... would it be better to buy a cold wallet to store everything in? And if so, what's the best for the price?

Thanks... sorry I keep bugging you with all these questions 

Bitcoin Core would not be able to synchronize if it isn't connected to the internet as it cannot get new blocks from peers. You can just connect to internet and it would continue to synchronize. As it is synchronizing, the memory space occupied would gradually increase till around 40-50GB. I personally don't prefer Bitcoin Core as it takes up too much memory space. I would prefer a light wallet like electrum or multibit. They offer the basic features while offering simplicity.

Any open sourced wallet is more or less secure enough. The only insecurity is the possible malware in your macbook. Cold storage would ultimately offer the best security. I personally think that it is not worth to get a hardware cold storage. You can easily get a old laptop/computer, wipe it and print a paper wallet by downloading the script from bitaddress.org and disconnect from internet, add a passphrase to the wallet if you like. You can easily print it out afterwards and use mycelium to use it. If possible, you can wipe the memory cache from the printer to prevent possible theft if someone decides to check the cache of your printer.

the highest rate was from bit-x , but now there is a limit, i beliebe there is no more good campaign, if you are lucky with an hero you can do 0.5 in one months, without much post needed

it's not profitable like it was in the good old day, for thi reason i would suggest to not pay much for your senior/hero account, try to find a good compromise around 20% discount of the standard prices

But if I were to get a hero account with good posting and no negative feedbacks on it to for .55 BTC I could make my money back in a month essentially.. ?

[okae]

I'm looking at buying a Sr/Hero/Legendary account and use signature campaigns to make money. Question is, what are good accounts going for now and days? What sig campaigns pay the most money as of right now? Do you think sig campaigns are going to last for a long time?

Everything related to this topic is most certainly welcome and appreciated 

i understand that you want to do that, i mean to buy an account, but beleive me, the best thing you can do is to "lvling" your current one you will enjoy it and learn a lot while you did it.

btw i would suggest you to dont pay so much for an hero account.

But if I were to get a hero account with good posting and no negative feedbacks on it to for .55 BTC I could make my money back in a month essentially.. ?

thats the point, you can check this subforum -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0 and check if thats profitable for you.

yeah but i would try tor reduce that roi, while 1 months is good, the lower the better especially with this crypto world, which is so volatile in everything

It would depend on how much you post per month. If you are posting very little per month, you won't be able to gain ROI. I would say that buying a full member would be more profitable as the increase of pay between ranks is relatively small. You can still slowly gain activity using the full member account and it would reduce the risk of people suspecting that you have bought the account.

1. When you buy the account, use a reputable escrow to be on a safer side as if the account was banned earlier, it could get banned again. Always ask for a signed message.

2. The higher the rank of an account, the more you earn but higher ranked accounts cost much more. Better prefer buying a Full Member/Potential Sr. Member account than the higher ranked accounts which are expensive.

3. Dadice if I have checked the rates while other signature campaigns that pay higher have a fixed pay weekly/monthly.

4. I don't think so they might last long but I can predict it may last another year or more. There are issues with these campaigns as they create a lot of spam posts and hence the admins might take a strict action against these campaigns in the near future.

[MinerHQ]

Also I have another quick question... where can I buy BTC at the cheapest rates?  Xapo and circle have ~$3 charge per BTC, and I'd prefer to get all that I can out of buying some.

Maybe try localbitcoins.com and/or check the currency exchange section for sellers of bitcoins

Usually all exchanges will have some charges those are may not be so expensive because even other sellers also will ask for some % of profit on current changes rate.

[Pursuer]

I suggest you improve your own account , because it is not possible or easy to know about the account history (ban, scam, ...) so you don't know what you are buying.

if you are looking for an investment method I suggest trading to you. I am currently trading altcoins and I am happy so far with my performance.

You can find a rate from every sig campaign company here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0 and you can find here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0 if the list is not update.

I think that a good choice, because you never get lose investmen,
better you buy a Fullmember
you can build it and use to sign campaign after reach Sr member you can sell it

[Sarthak]

Hmmm.. I'd suggest you to buy a Senior Account rather than a Hero because the payment for senior and hero are almost same.. The signature campaign you want to get involved in depends upon how frequently you'd like to post from your Account. If you can make at max around 80 posts a week then Coinut camapign is currently the best..You can do your own research.

But, growing your newbie account to a Senior account gives you lot of experience and you learn lot of new things on the way
Good Luck

Campaigns are good but dont focus on that only, it´s hard to post constructive comments everyday with a high rate, i have never posted more than 10 posts a day because its honestly hard and i dont have that much free time, buying an account is not a bad idea but you should try to post a little every few hours to avoid useless posts. You could also invest in casinos or maybe tipsters, its risky but the rewards come faster.

I alot of it does have to do with the amount of free time you have.   If I have a busy day I don't get as many.   But free day or day with breaks yes lots of posts.  I tend to stay in the mining area.  That is where my heart is and what I enjoy.  Also like helping in beginner.   

On investing on casino's research it but I would strongly avoid this.  Most operate in a way to avoid laws.... so not the type you want to invest with.

I think Invest only in established altcoin that have a trusted dev team. A few tips might be the ones in my signature.

i second this, start out with a full or Sr. account, dont go for the heroes because the initial investment is almost tripled and the roi is only a little bit better

Yea niches come and go.

Guys need to always be opportunists if they want to earn the big buxxx 

Same way with altcoin trading, if you buy first, you cash the big bux, if you buy last then you lose.

many peoples in the bitcoin economy consider trading as the most profitable earning but you are talking about account farming so in that case i thing member rank and full member rank account farming wih be the most profitable at the currenct market

i personally would prefer trading any day of the week. trading has risks and you always have the chance of losing your invested money, but at least the profit that you can make from it is so much bigger than any sort of account trading or account farming.

I suggest buying a sr member account and you can join magicaldice signature campaign. You can earn up to 0.1 btc a week per 100 constructive posts on the mentioned campaign. If you can buy a sr member account for atleast 0.15, you can reach ROI + profit in just 2 weeks!

Trading does require large amount of balance and risk are huge. Trading does not guarantee profit while with account farming, no investment is required and the profit would be quite huge. With trading, you have to consider about the fees and identity verification. Other than the price volatility, the possibility of the exchange getting "hacked" is also quite high.
