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

[Betwrong]

I'd say it was better to buy 1 BTC yesterday  but YES, I think it is still a good long term investment. Only don't sell it when it drops 20%, which might occur, just wait several months at least you'll see.

It is a waiting game for bitcoin now. If you bought a few weeks ago, you are in profit. But compared to the price a year, a decade later, today's price is nothing. Just be patient.

Currently the price is playing @ $280-295 mark this past days. If you want to buy btc's today you can make your own speculations. One example you will wait to buy @280-285 then wait for the kick until $290-295 then repeat the process.

Because of price volatility whatever the price today buy btc's now. If you really want to buy @220 then forget investing for now. Patience is really need for this matter.

Whatever you do, just make sure to buy before the halving. Most likely it will be higher than what it is now if all else is the same but the supply generated is cut in half.

Well if you are planning it to hold for years then I guess it's a good thing. Personally I'm also holding BTC right cuz I am very positive its price will pump out years from, quite not sure the exact time but it will definitely come. I believe it is safe to say right now.

If you have faith on bitcoin and you're optimist on its future, grab the chance now buying 1 btc at a "cheaper" price

I think that the price will be increased after the halving period,
But saying the truth it is just too little to except a huge profit from only 1BTC
I would not consider it as a long term investment but as a short investment.

people invest what they can afford. 1 btc right now doesn't seem that much, but we can surely expect it to rise significantly the comming years.

Did you guys read the news about Bitcoin being accepted by the European union as a currency and there will be no tax on it when you buy, it's a pretty good news and I think it's a start of other good things waiting to happen to bitcoin. And if you buy now, like now now, imho you will profit from it.

Is it good long term investment to buy bitcoin?

The answer is YES, why? Because now the demand of bitcoin is increasing and a lot of company now is accepting the bitcoin what more  in the future so it is best to invest now and hold it in long term.

unless it go to 100k or other crazy values, 1 btc can't do much to your portfolio anyway

good luck waiting for 1 btc to reach 100k-1M range, there are chances that you might be dead already

i want bitcoin to succeed in a time frame of 10 years max from now, we can't wait forever or people will really begin to forgot...

And what do you consider success? For me is precisely 6 figures.. if Bitcoin "makes it" into the mainstream, I don't see how 100k+ is not impossible but unavoidable. It's like some people forget there will only be 21 million Bitcoins ever - the millions that got lost. Very limited supply.
The law of supply and demand says that the price must go x1000 times higher and x1000 times the current adoption would be mainstream-ish.
10 years is a lot of time, so I see it as a very serious possibility.

It depends on the definition of long term. I believe in 10 years, there will be numerous banks providing service based on bitcoin.

10 years are more than enough to wait for an investments based on bitcoin. We just need some 2 to 3 years for bitcoin to evolve itself as a everywhere acceptable payment systems. With that bitcoin investments will hit moon.

i also think long term is at least 10 years. for most people that's way too long as they are chasing instant profits. long term is always the best.

it's hard to think that 100kj  will be feasible, when we are struggling every day to maintain the current price and we cannot break 300 for more than few hours/days

i will only believe it when we see 10k+, until then it's only daydreaming, and personally i would invest in 10 btc at least

[jt byte]

Even if the price doubles(which for sure maybe will not happen)
There is no such a good profit just for 1BTC if you think for long-term.
At least 100BTC will make a good change(profit) in the next few years.

There ain't too many folks with $25,000 or so to park on an extreme bet for the future. Overall though you're right. One coin is unlikely to be life changing before you're back in nappies.

Well the higher the amount needed the higher the risk.
And there are less people with this kind of cash money to invest in.
But in generally 1BTC is just too little to except a good profit.

May be 1 BTC is a very little but if you ready to wait for more time like till your retirement then bitcoin would be best investment.

If you are patient to wait until you retire then i would think you are the most patient person in the world.
Simply it takes too much time and at the moment you should forget that you invested in bitcoin.
The profit could be good if the bitcoin price will be increased by 1000% at least.

We should forget our investment in bitcoin and wait for 20 years. The price could be $250k or 1 million if there is no major disaster happening to bitcoin.

[harizen]

With the current trend in bitcoin prices, it's much better if you buy bitcoin in the past days than today but still if you really believe then take the guts of buying it. Investing in BTC is worth to rake the risk than other risky method. Don't just monitored the prices. Act now.

Just buy an amount you can afford to lose and see what its worth in a year or two

[ajun96]

i think no, but for short term yes,
this month bitcoin price is up, I prefer not to buy if it is out of time to pump
but for short term yes, this week buy in $290 and sell in $299 or $300
