Buy Altcoin with BTC. Best stock ever If you do your research!

This. I like the fast and relatively anonymous ways of investing in the crypto world. Like a project like Maidsafe? you can go and buy Safecoins which are like buying shares into a company. Quick and easy, no bullshit like you have to go through to open an account in traditional brokers. Low transaction fees, quick and responsive orders... can't be beaten.
You still miss on a lot of interesting non-crypto related projects tho, I would like a way to purchase shares of a company by doing it anonymous and fast like you do with Cryptsy and whatnot.

it's better to play with real stocks and forex than altcoin, altcoin pump and dump is too random they do not work in a consolidated range like forex

for example now EUR/USD is stuck in the same range for a while and you can earn a very high profit in this way, because the pattern is predetermined

altcoin instead get one random pump, and than a big crush, and all it appear at random, the only thing you can do to earn money with altcoin is joining a pump group

yes,, you better stock in the form of euro or usd, if you want to save in altcoin should be only for short term,
because a very large price changes can make you lose

Loose lips sink sigs!

Bitcoin's in a weird place - is it currency? is it an investment? That definition is an important part in answering what one can do with it. One can't buy things with an investment but can with currency.

Why do you want to buy stocks with bitcoin? There's no difference if you turn them into dollars and then buy stocks. Just pay a little fee.

I made this exact point in another thread on this very subject. Converting cash to BTC is a useless step that only adds a layer of complication and some transaction fees. It's totally unnecessary.

I mean yes for sure, if you have dollars and want to invest it then do it. However if you have Bitcoins and don't want to exchange it, then why not invest that?

Because then you're probably laundering money, but for the rest of us semi-normal people it makes absolutely no sense. And most of us also came by our bitcoin through an exchange, i.e., not receiving it directly in a paycheck or selling something for it and thus would have been better off not buying bitcoin to begin with.

Not everybody is laundering money with bitcoins. Just like not everybody uses cash, only to buy drugs & weapons.

And there are still those who receive bitcoins for a service they do or did. If they want to invest it, why shouldn't they? I get it that there is a well-established system for stock trading with EUR, USD etc. and it works. And that is just fine. However, this doesn't mean that there shouldn't be an option to trade in cryptocurrencies, possibly at another service provider. If you have cash, trade with it, I agree there is no point converting to BTC and trade with that. I wouldn't do it either. However I did try investing some of the small sums of BTC I had, mainly for fun.

I have been dealing in stocks before I started dealing in bitcoins and I would like to state that stocks have benefited me 10x more than bitcoin has ever done, and I have benefited from bitcoin pretty well too

I still deal with both of them, sometimes buying stocks with bitcoins but I prefer buying it normally as it is less pain in the ass, as I have been doing it from a long time.

both 1broker & plus500 are actually CFD trading sites... Huh

yeah, they are cfd only, i used both of them, when i discovered that they were using bitcoin, you can't actually buy stocks

there is cryptostock but i don't know how it work

in the end why it should matter if you can't buy stocks, what it matter is earning morey bitcoin on top of your investments, with one broker i'm at +10% right now, but i invested a very small amount just to try it out

Yes, try cryptostocks. It works pretty simple: just like any service you deposit some coins into an address (BTC, DVC and some other are also available) and then you can select which stock you invest to. You select the stock you are interested in and see if they are selling shares and for how much. You can also see a graph of recent stock prices.

Each stock listed tells you what it is, how are shares issued, how many and how often. I remember getting even some return on my stocks, aka I was getting some small amount of coins just for holding the stocks. Also, of course, anticipating a stock price increase you can make money by buying low, selling high. Just like trading.

I would advice you against using cryptostocks because the owner kumala (here on bitcointalk) seems to have abandoned the website. I would not want to receive dividends on that website anymore because you will have zero support when something goes wrong. Iam and many others wrote the owner with more or less important things and no answer. So i think kumala does not want to put any work into it anymore. Its a risk using such a website.

Now that you ask I saw Amph has mentioned using 1broker in the thread How many services do you use for trading? You can probably send a PM and ask about its merits.

There are tons of sites popping up like this promising investments with your bitcoin. Some are legitimate, but many more are not.

Do your research both here and with Google, and be very careful. If you just want to buy stocks exchange your bitcoin for fiat and buy some stocks the regular way!

with 1broker and plus500 you don't really buy the stocks but cfd, so you exchange money, bitcoin in this case, on the basis of the change in value of those assets

then you take profit buy closing and opening your position
