Has anyone made a comfortable living only investing in crypto trends?

[BTCulture]

I wish i could live off BTC and cryptos 

[oceans]

If only there was any way of telling if someone had made a comfortable living. I personally would love to make a comfortable living however it's something that will not happen over night and definitely will take a lot longer than a year to accomplish something like that. Hopefully one day it may happen

Alot of us bought BTC when they were *cheap* and been holding them since. Hoping they will keep climbing in value. And at the same time many altcoins rise and fall, people buying low and selling high, or even shorting BTC on sites like Bitfinex... Or mining new coins and then dump them as soon as they hit the market. There are also many securities out there to invest in like ASICMINER and HAVELOCK and now some mutual fund types investing in many altcoins, bitcoin and shares in crypto companies.

I am not talking soo much about Pool operators, or people with massive ASIC/FPGA/GPU/Rent-A-Server Farms, nor people that are just hodling. Looking for people invested in buying, holding and selling coins short / semi long term and or buying securities in groups that mine and give out dividends on their output.

With all these options out there, to invest in. Where you can possibly get a monthly, annual dividends, or as stated trade on the exchanges. Has anyone made this their full time job and been successful at it?

Certain names come to mind like Chris Dunn and Johnny Roquemore.

In the altcoin scene there are many professional traders. That would be the place to look for anyone interested in making a living trading crypto.

In the altcoin market I feel like a fish being eaten by sharks, goodbye trading.

You also have the issue that all alts have no real value so they will eventually all go to more or less zero. (you just need to wait long enough for this to happen).

WAIT - is what we all have to do

[DaveSaldana123]

WAIT - is what we all have to do

Wait for what? Wait for it to drop to 0?

Either that or actual economies will rise resulting in real spending and demand for certain alts.

It's not impossible.

someone surely is living off of it, some miners with big farm and no electricity can keep mining regardless, maybe some of them are also good traders

[GenieBTC]

Not that I know of. Everyone I know is here for more cash, that means they are not still living comfortably.

[realbtcdealers4real]

Are there any jobs that i can do online to get paid in btc?

[NeedsMoreBTC]

Well, apparently some guy was day trading and making like 1btc a day, but he was a legit whale so.

I would seriously doubt this will ever happen. If someone wanted to spend an altcoin there is no reason why they could not spend the equivalent amount in bitcoin for less cost and more security.

I want to live off BTC earnings, its my goal

You might be surprised. The crypto scene is going through something of a revolution in 2014. The amount of new tech that's being developed is impressive.

I hope nobody does. For the sake of bitcoin, it must not be seen as a successful currency for speculators.

I am not so sure about this. The price of altcoins when priced in bitcoin have decreased a lot in 2014 and it is generally getting much more difficult to start/launch a new altcoin as there is less overall demand.

Maybe not for speculators. It could be still seen as a success story for early adopters.

Speculation is everywhere and unavoidable.

I would argue that all altcoins will eventually crash and burn and will trade at zero if you give it enough time. They do not add anything to the table that bitcoin does not offer (with the exception of less security).

All alts are really good for is helping their creators get rick/get a payday
