10? 100? 1.000? 10.000? More?
What do you consider a good (and reasonable) amount of BTC to buy?
Cheers!

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

I am glad you don't have that much money, because you would probably kill bitcoin in no time...

If the sky was the limit, I would probably be on my mega yacht with a bunch of beautiful skirts rather than dicking around with bitcoin.
Buy as many as you can afford to lose would be my serious answer. No one can predict the future and you don't want to lose your house because you were wrong and can't pay that second mortgage you took out to drop into MtGox...

I got invited to R. Kelly's house party. This is why I'm dicking around with Bitcoin. Edit: I'm very happy this was my 1000th post  |

Buy as many as you need to purchase the things you wish to purchase online (goods or services). If you would also like to invest, buy an extra 5-10% to tuck away when you are refilling your spending coffers.

I like the idea of setting aside 10-15% to build up an account. But it has to be money you can afford to lose considering the nature of BTC market.
I'd start with 500 BTC and build from there (10-15% in intervals) while employing some hedges.
If you had some technicals that pointed to a rally, you could always buy some extras to capitalize on that then sell them keeping the profits invested and returning the principal to where it came from.

Load up, there's plenty for sale. Don't pay less than $7 USD for them, you want to make sure you get good ones that won't get stale quickly  |

How would you buy 27M when there will never be more than 21M? |

I have never bought a bitcoin and see no reason that I ever would. I have never bought The Bitcon and see no reason to start now as it steadily moves towards its inevitable conclusion of drowning in a sea of ennui.

Let me give you some advice, Hero: stop spamming the threads with your useless 1-sentence posts. You are offering nothing of value from I've read from your post history. Constantly running across you pimping that 'freebitcoins.org' website in your sig in giant font size is getting annoying. What are you getting paid for doing that? And guess what: December is over! Seriously. Ever hear of 'negative advertising'? Because that's what you are doing. I hope, for your sake, you wake up and take this advice. Unless you have something useful to contribute, don't waste our time. No one likes to wade through useless fluff. Otherwise when you finally DO have something constructive to say, you'll find no one is around to listen to you since they've long since hit the 'Ignore' button. At least you mostly spam the Newbie box for now ... |
