For me, to be a good bitcoin investor we need to be a wise person. I had tried some invesment company, they paying or legitimate but in few or short days,weeks or months they will run away; they will not paying anymore.

Tried and tested tips:

1. Invest bitcoin if the company is 0-10 running days.

2. Make sure that the deposits, withdraws and member is increasing.

3. Search for more information about that company.
Concerning about number of running days will not support you for preventing possible scams. Because, a business might then into scam even after years too.

I do usually start testing a new business if they are having announcement and discussion thread here in this forum. I will start testing their services with possible minimum amount.
I followed this way for selling out bitcoins into my local fiats. I stay safer till today.
Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

The problem is people always bite the "TRUE TO BE GOOD STORY/MAKE QUICK MONEY/EARN MONEY WHILE DOING NOTHING" Shemes.
I really think that some of the investment sites are easy to know if they are legit or not .

If you are really looking for investments, It will be best to search for some highly reputable site and do some research about it. If you search from it, Some blog sites are blogging their experience from a certain investment sites. You can start from there I guess.

------
1. Invest bitcoin if the company is 0-10 running days.

2. Make sure that the deposits, withdraws and member is increasing.

3. Search for more information about that company.

1. If any site is running for 0-10 days that doesn't mean it will keep on running for next 10 days.
2. Even if deposit/withdraws are working currently doesn't guarantee that it will be same like that for tomorrow. Due to greed of ref commision any investment site may get good number of members through referral program so this can't suggest you are investing in good company.

3. Search for information about company, most of the company that run hyip or bitcoin investment ponzi open up paid UK based company which doesn't had any background.

So as conclusion better not to invest in any of bitcoin hyip/donation/investment ponzis. Trading is ultimate way to grow bitcoin.

I had tried your first trick. That is to invest money within 0 to 10 days of opening but what actually happened to me is-
They had shown that minimum withdrawl is 0.001btc but i had more then that amount but they kept my withdrawal in pending for lifetime.
Then again another site gave me only 1/6th money and scammed me.

if we want some profit with risky investment then your tried tips are good but only first two .
i will give third tip that you should see the Maximum investment at that site . if the investment at that site is very bulk then site will get more Profit and ran for long ago . so in starting we can take risk and can make money .

I had tried some of these trick but when luck never gives you hands then there's no way. I had luck once and got scammed once so trick is not of great importance but the luck.

You have really to make a deep research before investing in any conpany or project.
For example in ico the risk is very high because we dont have much info about the company or the team as they are new.

being a good investor means avoid the shortcuts and start yhe hard works and take responsibilties in your hands insted of blaming others or the system. its uour money so you have to protect it.take your time and reseach about companys about how they have oayed and what is ohers are talking about that company and if others are saying good then see how much they have negetive points and is it safe.

That is the basic scenario of an HYIP site. They run for atleast a week, sometimes even a month depending on how much people are currently 'investing' in their website.

The deposit will always be functional because they want your money. The withdrawal records and the number of members can easily be manipulated by the owner of the website. He can simply tell the dev to make fake transactions and generate fake users.

Lastly, at first the company will have good feedback because they are still paying. That's what HYIP sites need, a good reputation. They will keep it like that until they decide to run away. Honestly, I think a good investor invests in ICO, and do altcoin trading. They don't look for websites like this.

That's funny, OP make an thread "how to join in a hyip" and the thread name is "how to be a good bitcoin investor to prevent scammed" lol

That resume the Bitcoin world, a lot of experts that don't know anything, like the scientist dog "I have no idea what I'm doing"

Tip #1 and #2 would actually not save you from any scam, because a company or site running from 0-10 days is likely to become scam sooner or later, and even if a HYIP or ponzi site gets investors their deposits and withdrawals would increase gradually, so these things wont make you safe from it, you should just do the third thing, do some research before investing anywhere.

The most easy way to spot a scammer project is when you able to make above 10% monthly, besides that anything that says you will be able to double in xxx hours your investment, and some new projects showing big deposits ammounts, be sure those are admins making fakes accounts and simulating the deposits between their accounts.

Always be censorious and do research, if they offer you higher rate of return think, think, think. It is better to be safe than feel sorry in the end.

Hello,

My advice is please do not invest your bitcoins in risky businesses. Instead, start lending them to your friends. By doing so, you can introduce the future currency to all your friends and enjoy the income from interest.

CredibleFriends offers world's first 'Trust' based peer to peer lending app which actually acts as a credit card. It not only acts as a medium to introduce your friends to bitcoin. But can also save tons of money to them when they use bitcoins for shopping on amazon, and you can earn interest at the same time.

Yeah that is a good idea you can also start lending here in our lending section but it needs to provide a collateral in order to cover the loan so if the borrower defaulted you can sell the collateral to cover the loses..
And you can make more bitcoins there if you can get more loaner and paying everyweek that is why other members there are giving loan because they know they are making a good profit..

For number 1, better to invest if the company is running over 6 months, some ponzi or hyip site turned to scam in 0-10 days after scamming their member.
About number 2, i doubt since ponzi and hyip site has lot of members and withdraws or deposits is obviously will increase rapidly just wait untill you see the site turn to scam, well the key is don't invest where you don't have any idea who are behind that site, yeah make some research before invest on something but the most important don't invest more than you can aford to lose.

There s no specific recipe but in general, you need to ask a lot of questions and stay informed. Personally, I ask questions and if the other side s not transparent or some explanations seem too good to be true, I generally pass on that offer.

It s all about fine tuning your nose for scams and scammers.

Even the luck will come for nature, you just making any vague point about this. anyone knows about that. you need more of your effort fo be successful for doing your trick.
How can you get your luck for seriously? LOL
The people are get scammed because there are not be careful with itself.
Although if we are already be careful with yourself and also can get scammed by scammer.

To my own understanding, number 3 should be the best solution because when you make lots of research about a business or an investment company you will get to obtain lots of information from different people on their experience with that particular business or investment,from the deduction you made you can now decide what action to take.
