I have 12 Bitcoin. What should I do???

[o.ogurlu]

If you have spare time, I think you should keep 10 bitcoin in your account. Sell 2. and do buy-sell with them. Altcoins can earn good money if you follow the market. but most of them are already increasing in line with BTC. so that the biggest gain will already be from BTC.

[cryptonianz]

If I were you, I would keep half of it and spend half of it on altcoins. It is essential that you should spread it on different wallets, especially if you have an offline paper wallet or hardware wallet like Trezor and Nano.

Very good opinion. I support you. Do not keep your currency on the exchanges, it's important! In a couple of years you will wake up even richer. Good luck!

Yes, I also I agree to invest half of the coins in Altcoins. Who knows what will happen in a years time.

Well, first thats a lot of bitcoin. May I ask how did you manage to have that amount of bitcoin? Anyway, you can invest in an ICO of your choice, but of course theres always a risk, so you have to choose your ICO wisely. You can also try, trading, but you have to be knowledgable about it to profit. I think the safest is just hold it for a little longer because as of this moment, the value of bitcoin is increasing, so you have to take advantage of it. Or the best decision is to diversify. Invest, trade, and hold it.

I think the best decision would be to keep it for a long time just watch it

I have 12 Bitcoins. I am not a whale. I started about 6 months ago with 0.01 Bitcoins and $1000. I turned it into 12 Bitcoins so far and am pretty proud to say the least.

My question is, what do I do now?

As far as I can see, I have 4 options;

1) Hold the Bitcoin

2) Invest in altcoins and leave a little in Bitcoin

3) Fund a project and start my own cryptocurrency that solves a problem that current currencies face (scalability, Tx fees etc.). With the funds, I would be able to assemble a team, start a marketing campaign, get listed on exchanges etc. I am also a programmer which helps.

4) Convert it to fiat (probably the dumbest idea)

Edit: I should also add, I dropped out of school and have all the time in the world so can fully commit to any idea. I will earn my living of cryptocurrencies.

A few people have asked how I made my money so, if you are interested, here is a short summary:

Initially, I put it all into Bitcoin during the massive FUD of the fork around June when Bitcoin dipped to $1,900. Then I put half my money into NEO before all of the hype at around $12 and cashed out at $40. Then I invested in a couple ICO's and turned a pretty good profit of off the hype. After that, I got back in on NEO as soon as China announced the regulations regarding ICO's and rode the wave back from around $20 to $40 (I can't quite remember). Then, I rode the hype of Ethereum Dark, eBitcoin and a few other airdrop scams. Finally, I got in on Wincoin before it got to coinmarketcap and turned a 20x profit.

First of all my congratulations! You're a real crypto-expert! 
My IMO is
1. Hold 50-70% in BTC
2. Invest 20-30% in altcoins
3. If you have really unic idea, so go on and  start your own cryptocoin but no guarantee it will make you rich. 
4. Not now I think maybe 0.1 BTC to buy some presents for your parents/brothers/sisters... 

Anyway good luck to all your beginnings!

maybe you can keep it for long-term investments, or participate in ICO, otherwise you can trading to increase your bitcoin. or if you are kind you can donate it to me  .

12 bitcoin is already huge amount so saving it for long term would be nice decision. Prediction of bitcoin price would be higher or it will continue to increase. Always diversify your invesment bitcoin, altcoins, or yes I agree choose worth to invest in ico's.

It's a good choice if you invest in Altcoins too, move your coins around by trading with other Altcoins. Whatever the case your BTC will increase so your in a win win situation as it stands.

You could also look at new ICOs too, check out trade.io here https://trade.io/ which is a strong project.
For more information on this ICO check here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2367245.940
It will not disappoint.

you have time so hold half (6 bitcoins) and invest 6 bitcoins

4 trading and 2 for altcoins (1 ETH and 1 for others).

trading is buy/sell in short range and will increasing your income

I think that the best option from those four is hodl bitcoin! And a few months later when your bitcoin will worth $500 000 you could start your new coin

Hey,

If you're tempted to continue trading (and by all accounts you've done well so far, so why not?) then diversify. Keep a stash of BTC that you'll never touch, keep some ETH and maybe some of the other stable coins (NEO, OMG, LTC), and then trade with the remainder; it's what you do best.

Never a good idea to have your eggs in one basket...unless that basket is BTC I supposed!

Good luck out there, I'm sure you'll kill it!

[hari9981]

you have a lot of money. preferably if you want to get big profit try to buy altcoin on ico it is very good because coin price is very cheap. so in the future the price of the coin will go up and you will get the most profit from buying the altcoin. but you have to buy a good coin and have a good future too

[Vansire]

I wonder if it'll be possible to sell Bitcoin options. Then you'd be able to hedge your Bitcoin value against drops.

[dragoz11]

If I were you I would invest my money in one of the best schools in the world and take my diploma which can open so many doors. But for sure with the rest of money I would continue the trading with alts.

[KluFf]

You got 12 BTC which mean  =  140940$
now.
i might say if your in my country "Philippines"
i'll create a business  or franchise so
i can have my Incomes.
and I'll spare 10% of the BTC for just HOLD and Trading
incase i can earn Profit too.
i wont worry much because i create business through the
90% of the BTC . even if BTC or Cryptocurrency falls

[Zizi19231]

12 bitcoin is a whole lot of money.Invest in altcoins and leave a little in Bitcoin

[segomawut]

if you ask me what I do when 12 btc punys, then i will answer for fixed investment in btc, because there btc forecast will break to the price of 1 billion, and if we have 12 btc then can not imagine will our trade miracle . if we are not in a hurry and not wasteful then it can be made for large business capital

[enawati]

You did really amazing trading, I think will be good idea to continue doing trading with portfolio 50% Bitcoin/ 6BTC  and others 50% just hold in to Bitcoin. With you experience you can turn it 10 x more. By learn and continue learn the mistake will make you reach the financial freedom.

[xpashtetx]

you can just keep them! but you can try to multiply! leave 60% in the BTC, 20% keep the aitcoins that can shoot and do much more than Bitcoin, and another 20 would recommend a look at good ICO projects!

[yusuf98]

if my opinion. do not focus on one type of investment. create at least three or more types of investments. Whether it's in cryptocurrency or in real life.
