Best investments?

[sickboy314]

I am curious on the public's opinions of where to invest my funds. I will make the decision myself but would not mind to get input from others. Should I stick with bitcoin or should I explore the alt world? Seems that the alts may have more potential for growth %, but I have seen some outlandish projections for bitcoin future price as well. Thank you all in advance.

Well I think you should stick with bitcoins.

Ps: long-term or short term. ?

Ripple goes open source in like 2 days, might be an opportunity there for a short term buy then sell.  A lot of people think its a scam though, but I think putting a few dollars into it then selling might be wise.

Also, holding BTC seems to be a great investment also, long term. 

I am not a financial advisor though, so take it with a grain of salt

Holding BTC as a major and investing less then 15% of those BTC into LTC might work out well in the near future, that's only if the developer decides to take action and what not. LTC does have potential given it's low affordable pricing, would be ideal for merchants in the near future however this is my personal opinion and it may or may not differ from yours.

Invest in Bitcoin, ignore the crapworld

Well, a year ago Litecoin was a much better investment than Bitcoin, but who knows what the future will bring...

Hi btc still has room for growth but difficulty vs price needs to be adjusted to work out future value

I think it's too late to invest in Bitcoins, so I'm mining Feathercoins as an investment instead

Technically we are no too late. The price may go up to $1000, which would still make us early investors!

IMO WARNING:

Cryptocoin is a horrible investment for money you plan on keeping.  If you have a little bit to play around with, sure you might make a buck.  But as much as devs like to pretend like the system is secure its not.  By classical economics bitcoin is about the most volatile a market can be.  An unbacked fiat currency thats only accepted in niche markets.  It's bound to bubble, explode, bubble, then explode again.  You can try to ride the bubble for fun but I think you'd have to be retarded to play your life savings on it.  The advice any financial adviser would give you, and I think its good advice, is diversify.  Index funds have solid growth and are not directly susceptible to declining USD value.  Gold is alright but its kind of on its "high end" right now.  Silver has been increasing in value so it might be worthwhile.   Money markets are pretty stable but not growing much.  Bonds are pretty much toilet paper.

To summarize

BTC = Play

If you want to invest your life savings, I recommend a different kind of market.

I'd stick with bitcoins, there will be increasing opportunities for ways to make interest on your bitcoins as the market develops further.  +EV
