I don't believe a man who has gained 3M USD would ask an advice about investments on forum ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I second that motion I disagree as it may be part of its due diligence on the matter since bitcointalk obviously has some very good Bitcoin experts These forums may have "experts" however it is very difficult to determine who is an expert and who is full of BS. The advice found on these forums is also significantly biased to the buy side for bitcoin

All of the above comments are interesting reading. I will say that there have been alot of people PM'ing me with ideas and such. The scammers are obvious. The peoeple who are just looking to pawn off played out ideas and/or uninteresting bad ideas have contacted me in droves. The reason one comes to this board is to gain insight and to gain knowledge. Yes, there are a fair amount of amateurs here however there are also a large amount of wise minded individuals, some who post and others who read/lurk. We have purchased significant amounts of coin as part of the investment and also setup mining and invested into some technologies as well. ALL based on advice found on this forum and by conversations with smart individuals. Any serious investor must do his homework and that is why I am here in a nutshell. Thank you all for the replies and private responses. The information was plentiful and aided my mission. I have also formed a San Diego miners meetup group if you want to join... Search for it on meetup.com http://www.meetup.com/San-Diego-Bitcoin-and-Cryptocurrency-Miners-Meetup/

None, of the options, finally. I would invest in start-ups with ideas for the bitcoin ecosystem. So investing in ideas. Or considering buying an already working asset. For both it would be good to establish contacts first. Just a thought.

I suggest you do everything you can, except mining.
1st priority is for the ATMs. And maybe issue cards/vouchers that can could like (fiat) credit/gift card that holds certain claimable BTC amount, so it could be used for transactions without making people to wait for confirmations and stuff, and without exposing the whole wallet.
But you should also consider: -Buying a collection of bunch of different old/new cryptocurrencies and incase one of them was used beside BTC (Like silver to gold) You still get a foothold in that. Or maybe mining them since the difficulty is way low.

Having invested in markets and traded currency casually since I was 18 (4 years now, not a lot but I know a few things) I firmly believe in not putting all your eggs in one basket. If I were in that position I would put $1m in 3 different options, it's still a risk, but from my view it's always best to be safe and maybe not profit as much from diversifying than be risky and potentially losing from backing a sole option.

Diversify means diversify geographically, in sector, different type of management assets, political risks and security for your assets (safe, trust ect.) 3 options in the same market and the same country is an extremely small diversification

Maybe the folks that are registering here as a Newbie for the purposes of promoting this kind of stuff, could just include "ponzi" or perhaps "scam" in their name..... ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
