I'm not a professional investor, but merely a small time trader. However, I would use the bulk of it to buy bitcoin, and invest the rest into alts when the dip comes, since it is highly likely bitcoin will go on a bull run, and alts will crash anytime soon.

How you dealing with your needs in 10 years ? People have needs that need to solve. That's why things are complicated with people .
This is very big amount if you can invest them in some coins like in bitcoin and ethereum then you can make more and more profit from this money but you should need enough experience that how to invest your money and how it can be handle.

your target is up to 10 years? well you are lucky if you alive in 10 years, $800,000 that's a big amount if you to invest only bitcoin, just divide your money to invest other altcoins I suggest to invest in ethereum, litecoin, bitcoin cash and maybe ripple. Just invest that has potential coin to increase.

$800,000 is a lot of money. If you invest that much then be ready to be in a really rollercoaster of a ride! Depending on when you invested, you'll surely feel your heart drop if prices suddenly dump and likely your heart will pound when prices go up! But when it goes up and you did not sell you will also feel bad. That's the thing with volatility, it's pretty much a roller coaster of emotions!

Instead of dreaming one bitcoins to this much value you can invest some funds to bitcoin related platform and makes money out of it. I am you make more bitcoins with mining platform. Try to buy two ASIC miner and start mine bitcoin you will be able get the returns in 6 months and you can make more money in further days and months. Volatile nature will cnever come in this investment at all.

I would invest 80% of that directly into Bitcoin Why? Well, because Bitcoin is currently being used to fork other coins and every time they do this, you get free coins to sell. Do not store your BTC on third party services, because it is not guaranteed that these companies would give you the free coins.

The other 20% can be divided into the investment of other high risk Alt Coins. Just check which of these coins are being pumped and buy low and sell high. ^smile^

I do trust bitcoin but for security measures as we do not know what might happened tomorrow. I never borrow money to someone or lend from creditcard or to bank just to buy a coin. Better stay with small money without any debts and worry.

It is right to hold bitcoin coming from your own money than to have debt just to make sure you hold bitcoin because in this kind of market risk is every where. Investing that big amount of money will surely make money for you if bitcoin succeed in the future but to lessen the risk don't put everything to bitcoin do more a lot of research before you trade.

Hi all.

First, congrats on creating such an amazing resource for the rest of us newcomers. I’ve spent weeks reading.

Crypto currency is quickly gaining traction and to those who understand it, it’s obvious that it’s only a matter of time before the institutional banking systems of the world must confront it: either fight it, or integrate it. Integration can be taxed and regulated. With CME’s pending futures offering, VISA/MC facilitating its use, mainstream media’s positive coverage, and trusted brokerages adding it to their asset class investment options, it looks like integration in the US is the route. As is said, so goes the US, so goes the world.

Still, while perhaps 30% of people have heard of bitcoin, 99.5% aren’t yet invested. As you know, this is an expected pattern of technology adoption and maturitization, known as Gardner’s Hype Cycle.  And as an investor, provided integration continues, this suggests to me that there is an enormous amount of upside potential.

This is my question: At this still early stage, volatility considered, how would the experienced investors of this group invest a large sum of money, i.e. $800,000USD? Diversification among alts? Scaling into BTC during the price corrections and dips?

My strategy is long-term, 1-10 years, more if warranted. I think in the near future this will be a question asked by many. Thank you.

$ 800,000 is a big money, if you invest effectively you will get a lot of money.
I can only advise you not to invest 1 kind of coin, first is still BTC, then you can invest in some other altcoin. I know you want to invest in the long term, so you need to find coin have good technology and big community. Good luck!



All i can say is perfectly nice investing money with bitcoin. But for me at huge amount of USD 800,000 could be a hard decision if your money borrowed from banks. Thats gonna be a win win situation investing with atleast 10 years. You never know the possiblity of bitcoin ends. Much better if you invest with a small amount avoiding depts strategy.

Considering the increasing number of better competitors venturing into cryptocurrency, i believed alts is the way to go, scaling BTC for price correction and dips require some solid expertise which is not an investment i think, but a full time job to cope with its volatility and it's not fun to adapt such strategy for a long time, as for alts, some projects are seriously meant to be success, it's just about time if you consider the product/services created and values that they could provide. Some 'blue-chip' coin aren't really one considering their current market cap, which is far less than any success organization today from other industry.
This huge money and it need a plan for investment. I will suggest you to make  a proper plan and invest these money in bitcoins and some altcoins whose rate are good like etherum. If you can invest these money with proper plan then you can earn triple time more money.

Here is what I would do with $800,000 is I wanted to invest it all in cryptos...

First off, you have a higher chance to make the most money by investing in altcoins, although that takes hundreds of hours of research, or even thousands, whereas coins such as Bitcoin and Ethereum are much safer options because they are proven to be legit, and also offer the possibility to make huge multiple in the not-so-distant future. Therefore, I would put $600-700k into BTC and ETH and play around with $100k or so in altcoins which you deem worthy of investing in after much research. Hope you get some help from this advice.

Cryptocurrency this is no ordinary Fiat. Here the classic laws of Economics don't work. Strategy investing in various Fiat to minimize the risks of investments in base currency will not help. Bitcoin is the world's number one crypto. When it is cheaper then pulls down all altcoins. What is the point to invest in them for a long time? Bitcoin is the most popular and reliable of all cryptocurrencies. Invest in it.

It's about a huge amount of money which you plan to invest,and investment in cryptocurrency is very risky but on the other hand it can be very profitable.There is no doubt that BTC is number one cryptocurrency today with tremendous potential and as you say maybe 30% of people in world have heard about it.So with time more people will show interest and start buying BTC,more demand+less supply over the time will push price up.What is certainly to be taken into account is the attitude of the greatest governments of the world to BTC.

Most people will advise you to invest most part of money in BTC,it somehow seems the most logical move today and my opinion is no different than that.There is many coins out there,and some of them exist for some time,but what is future of ETH,XRP,LTC,DASH and some others It's really hard to say.

I would personally invest more then 50% in BTC,and I think this will bring me very nice profit in next 10 years.The rest of the money would go equally on today top altcoins,but with some deep research maybe you can find some low value altcoin which is worth investing.

If you invest all that money and buy coins be sure to take the greatest possible security measures,coins are easy to buy,but even easier to be stolen.

If you have such big sums of money then there isn't probably a lot of sense in investment for profit, because you can already allow yourself lots of things. Just enjoy exploring new countries or pay for your kid's good education. People usually invest smaller sums. Anyway, I would suggest to invest 70% in bitcoin, 10% in IOTA, 10% in ethereum, 10% in some random coins (small sums in each of them). Yet surely you should look at what's happening with your investments from time to time, because nobody can guarantee btc won't crush one day.

If you have $800,000 and don't really need it for 1-10 years, don't hesitate to invest in cryptocurrencies.
But, there will always a risk to lose all of it, that's why people always recommend not to invest everything.
Consider the risks to invest a big amount in 1 year, 5 years and 10 years that must be different, divide your funds into several creliable coins is a good strategy, and maybe you will be a millionaire within 1-5 years. Bitcoin will always be the number one of cryptocurrency, invest 50% isn't a bad idea at all. The biggest obstacle that we should aware is political or government regulations, as long as biggest (players) countries in crypto-world such as Japan, US, South Korean, Europe, China and Russia do not ban bitcoin, no need to worry.

Goldman? Fidelity? No Bro, you are on wrong way.

Institutionals will recommad you a "Buy" on an asset only when they will need to sell it... So, if goldman call a Buy on BTC, i'm pretty sure that it has lot of BTC to sell... I'm on financial market since 1999 so i have seen lot of bubble... And usually a bubble is someting that in past institutional as called as "STRON BUY" or "BUY & HOLD".

Rimember that Goldman is a bond issuer too: it has all interest to sell you his products. I gave you my suggestion. Take high risk only on a little part of your investment, because prices could fall at any time. When people get scared, panic takes over! Keep these work in mund before take any decision!

Good luck!  Smiley

Are you seriously thinking about taking investment advice from random strangers over the internet? Much less for $800,000... not a smart idea man. You need to contact experts and do some serious research on your on, without the opinion of people who do not know your full situation and probably know nothing about investing anyways. I don't want to give you bad advice, so I will stay out of it and not give any suggestions (other than buy and HODL).

Your suggestion is appreciated and correct. But, perhaps I’ll attract some intelligent crypto investing advice with this post that is unique. Surely, any advice would be strongly considered and vetted by myself and my advisor before any decisions are made. Diversification is key, obviously.

I am finding it a challenge to identify “experts” in crypto currency that have a positive understanding who are also institutional, ie Goldman, Fidelity, etc. and are able or willing to give recommendations. Such is the challenge of investing in a commodity before its officially adopted by the masses...
