Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today?

[ajun96]

Today the price has been increased a bit so maybe it's the time to stop and see what will happen but probably it will not fall down again like the last time.

nope, if you buy for longterm, its not stop yet for buy bitcoin
i think in future bitcoin price will be more than $370, different if you're buy for short term

If your outlook is 3 months, then you should wait I think. But if you can wait (miss your money) for a year or longer, then I would give you my blessing.

3 months is not long term at all... In my opinion and how I feel (totally personal), at least 1 year is called long term. But anyway, hold for a year or longer may be a good investment

Hello, In my opinion you should buy greater than 1 btc, because of your investisment won't worth anything if even bitcoin price
raise. and I will not say its safe or neither normal risk, its a High risk you can earn or just lost no other choice.

Honestly, if one really want a great profit, 1btc isn't enough to feel the profit for a long term purposes. Not advisable for an average bitcoiner but worth the risk. Think before investing because big investors really have a great investment for holding purposes.

I think that's the amount he is afforded to lose but 1BTC is not bad at all in my opinion

i think 3 months is including short-term, maybe you will lost or profit, because 3 months is too short dude,
so yeah more 5 years its good inveestment

Looking for a 3-5 period, it is a good decision.

For a shorter period it is also wise, but make sure that you can wait just in case.

I bought 3 bitcoins a month ago. Already I am on profit.

Within a few years, the profit would be even bigger then today.

That's very nice! Congrats I am also saving the amount of BTC I earned online and wait for some big price changes to make some profit

You are lucky man, because the first month, you'd be profit, very short time, because the first month it could be you have a risk to lose, if I were I would sell it and then buy again

[michietn94]

my opinion is buying BTC for investment is not really safe ,
because this is a digital currency we still dont know when the government will banned the coin because the expert ever mention that digital currency like this can destroy world economy

and also there is a lot of competitor to create new digital coin, so maybe there is a big chance the price will down in few years later

[OzbigG]

As long as it doesn't represent all of your saving and you can afford to lose that amount if things turn to shit. Its always good to have diversified investments so have it as part of a larger investment portfolio.

Sure, but as you might know, the value might rise, but it might also fall to zero. However, at ~360$ per coin, the "gamble" is worth.

Fall to zero I will tell you that won't happend. Maybe at 200 dollars but not lower than that. Maybe I can be wrong.
But buying 1 bitcoin now is good, but if your a patients wait that it goes lower.

The halving is approaching and considering the supply it will be more and more difficult to own BTC. We don't know the value of a sinlg eBTC in the years to come but it is a finite number, maybe one BTC will not make you rich but you'll own a piece of future (or history! we will see).

Yes of course, that's another reason why I'm doing bitcoin, I believe it has a future but nothing is set in stone.

Things can change, that's the way it is. I don't think it will fail but if it does, at least I can say 40 years from now that I was part of something I believed in.

How safe is it?

If you want to do in long term is a good idea, but about safe nah there is no safe wwith bitcoin.
Just buy 0,1 Bitcoin every month I think that is the safest thing you can do.

very unlikely, they keep saying this but the truth is that we are increasing nicely, i've bought another 2.6 btc, well it was my father actually, i convinced him to buy some

i think we are going to see 500 soon as a stable value not as a peak, and i would invest now that they are still cheap because around the halving the price will skyrocket

You got it. Many people here waiting for the price down but waiting for too long now. I suggest use BBANDS in their indicator to see the action in chart.

How safe is it?

Both questions rely on your personal circumstances.  Never over invest in anything is probably the answer to both.    If you are a millionaire then yes own at least some bitcoin as you must diversify your currency and this is a high return possibility.    If you are struggling to pay off your bills then its harder to argue and you must decide if bitcoin is useful to you. 

Its not impossible that bitcoin is a product which reduces your costs, foreign exchange transactions can be very expensive, insecure and slow where at bitcoin beats them on all points.   It doesnt have to be a intellectual point, if you arent rich make it useful rather then sitting on it
