As for holding I still can not analyze a coin that will rise in the future.
define good amount of bitcoin!
is it $1000 worth of bitcoin or is $1 worth of bitcoin also acceptable?
$1 worth of bitcoin was equal to 10BTC once. so do you still consider that a "waste of time" to hold on to this amount of bitcoin? you see as a long term investment, price will continue to go up and in a couple of years what seemed small will be huge.
when I started using bitcoin price was about $200 and all the "small amounts" that I earned and held are now worth a fortune.
you can see an example of them here: $7.47 payment is now worth $152
