at $2500 I stop working for other people and on my own ideas only.

why not now? Well, I don't have the balls, I guess.

This sucks, I should start working exclusively on my own stuff NOW.

Anyone have an idea how to overcome the fear to do that?

If it hit $1000 I would not do a whole lot... I am not making much BTC at the moment although I should be soon.

The companies (probably most companies who accept BTC) using payment processors to instantly convert to fiat and tank the markets by oversupply are not "the Bitcoin economy". They fucked the Bitcoin economy by putting everyone who bought at higher prices in the position of having to spend/sell at a loss, or hold so as not to lose money. Not spending BTC on fuckers.

What would you have them do? Bitcoin is volatile, and their operations run on paper money.

One would presume a company wouldn't be running in the red or such razor thin margins that it would go bankrupt by not dumping (holding) BTC, with BTC conversions only a single digit or decimal percentage of their gross income, and they especially wouldn't if most other companies did the same. But see the asterisk below.


It is not a question of margin. Companies have to operate on strict budget. They can't report their balances as say within some range, the projections have to be accurate.

 Grin  Buy house, car, do the jobs which I love to, like being a professional poker player or btc trader.

But firstly, I need to have at least hundreds or even thousands of btc, I will have financial freedom because btc is crazy going up to 10k USD again.  Shocked Shocked

Life is to short for tomorrow to get your own ideas off the ground what if tomorrow never comes? Then you would have never done it would you, that would be a fail. Have a good talking to yourself and sort it out.

If it goes to 1000 i could possibly retire at 30 and just keep plodding along raising my babys have my fingers in a few pies to keep the moneys up and just be quite excited to not have financial worries for my family.

Come on the 1000 lol

i was looking at this section of forum before: lending
imagine the price goes up to $1000 right now, Cheesy so many people will be screwed

I think this happened to a forum member here when the price skyrocketed the first time and he couldn't pay it back. That's why it's probably best to lend the amount in a dollar value.

It is not good to store bitcoins if their price rises as the price may suddenly and all the buyer will incur a huge loss. One should consider short term investments rather than long term and for me, I would store it for just a week or less and exchange them or buy some gift cards.

I think it firstly depends on how much you must be holding at that time... As so many people would say that they might do a lot this and a lot that, but who knows what are they actually holding on at?

I mean, for example, if I hold 500 BTC and price reaches 1k, I can buy a sexy Multi-Storey Apartment with at least 4 Bedrooms in the most expensive city of my country.

My favorite response to these kinds of questions is below
Same thing I do when anything happens. Drink some beer.


I would probably say that by the next time the prices breaches $1,000 it will likely go substantially higher (at least temporaly) so I would hodl Wink

It depends. If that price would be an effect of a sudden pump/bubble like in Nov 2013 I would sell 50% of my savings. If it'd be an result of steady growth I'd hold.

either it would be a steady growth or not i would hold. i believe that bitcoin can reach much more than 1000 dollars what already previously happened. to sell at least 50 percent of my funds it would have to grow to at least 2k dollars

...

I started into the BTC world after BTC had backed off its all time highs (over $1000), I started slowly buying at around $700 and having been buying more on the way down.  For the moment I have no plans to spend them.

That would change if BTC goes back up to $1000 or even above its earlier all-time highs.  I will mention below what I will likely do further below, but here is a chance to tell people WHAT you would do with some or all of your BTC if we have a BIG price rise within, say, the next year or two:

If BTC goes to $1000 or more, what would you do?

*  *  *








1) Buy gold!

2) Look for a good investment in the BTC community

3) Very possibly hoard the rest




If it reaches 1K this year again. keep and wait till it goes further. it has so much more potential.

In case of pump'n'dump I'd buy back after crash, forgot to mention Smiley

Hold or invest some of the holdings in interesting future blockhain-based projects.
Bitcoin is powerful and they're going to appear new projects that are going to center our attention  Tongue

Hold now and and feel proud in the future.

Im also inclined to invest in blockchain based projects and in general crypto based projects, the problem is there are so many scams out there so im never sure where to put the money at.

I woulkd be interested in that as well. But I doubt they expect small investments. Maybe they should do an IPO or something,

I know. There are lots of scam-projects out there but you can always see their development (if it's open source, for example) on their Github repository, with all the commits and community movement.

As well, you can always see if the project is strong and with support or not, learn and read what the community think about...
First example that came to my memory: counterparty, project and github.  Smiley and many many more...
