Are you waiting for a huge price increase or do you believe it will stay always around 400 USD ?

I believe the price will rise not by a huge amount but the reason I invest in Bitcoin (Crypto currencies) isn't for the price Smiley

It's not a bad idea but only cashout when BTC rise at $400 or more.

How do you all store your BTC, I don't plan on spending any so i have printed off wallets and i use blockchain.info to watch only the public key just so i can check the amount i have.... Is this the way you do it ?



It depends how many Bitcoins you have and how securely you want to store them.

One of the most secure ways to store large amounts of Bitcoins is in a hardware wallet, but you have to buy the hardware device. The link below explains how the Trezor hardware wallet works and how to buy it.

https://www.bitcointrezor.com/

Other secure options for storing large amounts of Bitcoins is in an encrypted Bitcoin core wallet, or an encrypted Armory wallet. The link below explains how the Armory wallet works.

https://bitcoinarmory.com/

You can read a range of about other wallets (including Bitcoin core) at the link below.

https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

Bitcoin core and Armory both necessitate downloading gigabytes of blockchain before they are fully usable. There are also less secure wallets that don't need a giant download before you can fully use them. The best ones are Multibit and Electrum. You can encrypt either of their wallets, and there are links to information about them at the bitcoin.org choose your wallet page.

I did buy some extra even at 340. Those bitcoins are stored in my wallet and are meant for future use. I can't say at which price I would sell them.

But for sure it won't sell them with 3 years.

Definitely, but you would save some by picking the time of day to get the best price.
If you buy bitcoin on an exchange you will lose a lot to fees over time.

Can you watch only an address is MultiBit ?

Yes, a Multibit wallet shows you how many Bitcoins are in each of its addresses, and it also shows their USD value on an exchange. You can encrypt your Multibit wallet so nobody with access to it can spend your Bitcoins without a password. It's one of the most popular Bitcoin wallets because it's easy to use and it syncs quickly.

If you only want to check how many Bitcoins are in an address, and want an alternative to blockchain.info for if it's offline these block explorers are useful.

Only as a long term investment. Need the money don't buy.

Bitcoin is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get !!

As a general idea one might consider using caution discussing how one stores one's own btc in any public forum. It's one of the easiest ways to increase your attack vectors in a big way.

Waiting for a price increase is not that good. Imagine someone bought at 900$, now the price is 300$, how much more will he wait and how can you be sure the price will go higher than 900?

If you are in for a quicky, then don't else start accumulating some bitcoin.

The future is bright. Just look have much venture capital is invested and this amount is getting more and more every month.

Just think about this. Before investing make sure this money is not needed for the time being.

if the prices crashes and you need it so bad, it mean you would make a loss on the sale.
