I've been investing in stocks for twenty years or so with good results. I also have physical gold just because. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a rich guy, just trying to grow my money so I don't need to bust my balls working till I'm 90. I just recently joined coinbase to acquire some Bitcoin. I know I'm late to the party on top of which right now I'm only using my credit card on Bitcoin so I can only purchase small quantities weekly. Due to the weekly intervals I wasn't able to get in much on the recent drop. Glad I found this forum you guys gave me some practical advice while I was lurking. I'm used to looking at P/E ratio and other guidance in stocks. Bitcoin is a different animal and the best I can figure is it's growth is fueled by the confidence of it in its owners rather than in the numbers behind it or confidence in the government that prints it. I still do think that Bitcoin is a fiat but I know that is a provactive statement. Anyway, for people like me, who are getting in within the last few months I fear those crazy returns many of you were fortunate to enjoy are not going to be for us. I do beleive Bitcoin will still grow, just not like it has. So for now my plan is to use my coinbase limits to make small acquisitions and as I feel confident I will link coinbase to another source which will increase my buying power. I'm still deciding how much I want to put into Bitcoin. I want to understand better the safety of coinbase etc. although I'm getting in late I'm glad I'm getting in, if nothing else a little more diversification and of course to see where Bitcoin goes. Thanks I hope we all do well, this is my first post by the way.
There are still a lot of profits to be made but you are right you are never going to get the ROI of an early adopter or the ROI of someone that adopted bitcoin one year ago, but do not worry about that, you must care about the money in your wallet and bitcoin can make that grow with no problem.

That is right, why worry about what someone will be earning and not what you stand  to earn for yourself. Bitcoin is on an ever increasing ascendancy per the current demand trends globally and so it is bound to succeed  no matter what time you joined. You can also make good dividends if you are patient enough.

You can also buy bitcoins from localbitcoins.com
with various modes of payments.
There are many exchanges form which you can buy bitcoin directly but that procedure is little hectic. You need to verify yourself as per the demands of the exchange.

But if you are earning bitcoin through different exchanges or through signature campaigns, that is the best way of getting involved with bitcoin and owning bitcoin. I am personally not much in favor of buying bitcoin directly form exchanges.

Well first of all we need to welcome all newbie here because they can play a very big role in bitcoin so I believe some of them can be investors and some of them can be trade so we need to support them as much as we can because bitcoin is always trying to help and teach to newbie and it push the people for new life so I think we should invite more people to join bitcoin and let them take advantage from bitcoin and say thanks to bitcoin as well.

Diversify your cryptocurrency portfolio, and yeah buying bitcoin is never too late, think about bitcoin for the past years and how it grows to what is now 8000$ and still growing, personally i dont believe its just a bubble because bitcoin has a fixed supply which is why bitcoin is so special when it comes to Long term.

There is the idea that in order to diversify their risks need to invest the money in altcoins. I don't see the point in it. Bitcoin a safer currency. It is steadily increasing in price. Why voluntarily give up income. You can invest in altcoins but just hold your coins you have will not work. There need a different tactic. Earn with bitcoins easier.

I made the same mistake months ago. I was able to save some Bitcoin and I decided that investing a big percentage of my Bitcoin to alts would be a good way to diversify...it turned to be a big mistake. Some of alts just tanked miserably and I realize it is a foolishness to keep many of them. Now, am not saying that all alts are bad because there are also some superstar but analyzing which of them can be good would be a big guessing game and I am not good in making a good guess that's the problem.

Bitcoin is always the winner and it has proven itself for many times in the past how resilient it can be in times of difficulties and even the recent attack did not succeed to put the coin down. But then again, in Bitcoin though it is growing in value it is already impossible to expect a 1000% return at this stage...this is only possible with new coins and tokens coming into the market but again which of them will make it can be hard to determine. Sometimes I realized that it can also be just luck.

It goes to show that you are a newbie at all. You have quite an experience with trading also. There are some trading platforms offered in bitcoin as well. If you try to engage yourself on that, since you are into trading. As per your online wallet, you might want to try those that you have your own private key for your general safety. What you could, like myself is I invest a portion of my bitcoins into trading and deposit the income to your wallet and just leave it there as the value of bitcoin increases. I admit that working til 90 would be hell, it would be very much good to learn trading with bitcoins; life is an unending process of learning. Best of luck!

It is a good thing to invest in different stuff.  Diversification is actually good.  I do believe that you are not late in joining the Bitcoin community since the market is still young and there are lots of area to be saturated.  I hope you can find your venture in Bitcoin be fruitful and profitable.  Just do not get shaken when price drop hard.  It is normal for bitcoin market movement.

Yeah, dab or invest in bitcoin for now I think it's not too late. Bitcoin is still fairly new digital currency and still has a lot of potential in it. Although we know the current bitcoin price is too high, but there is still the potential to further increase. So while there is still a chance I think it's good we invest in bitcoin. But it's true, do not just invest in one thing. Thank you

You are never too late, because we do not know what will happen with Bitcoin in the future. A lot of people ask this same question a year ago and we had the same answer. Bitcoin has shown a 800% increase in value since then. I would rather take the risk and get some flesh in the game now, than having to look back with regrets not buying any when it was low. <$8000+ might look high now, but in a year it might grow with 800% again>

Bitcoin is a high risk investment, so do not invest more than what you are willing to lose. ^smile^

my personal advice to this is that test waters first if bitcoin is for you so with the fray if not look for other investments in the market, if you are continuing to invest in bitcoin you should read and understand what bitcoin first then know how are you gonna gain more bitcoin to boost your investments this involves studying of such patterns and indicators that would support your analysis..

Mate you are not that late, what would you say if price increases to $10,000 in the first days of new year 2018? what would you call $2000 increase

In over a month? you are still one of the fortunate people in my opinion, Bitcoin is like fiat money but with a major difference> you can generate new

Coins freely, no one could stop you.

Welcome on board, I appreciate your involvement with the Bitcoin but as you have noticed, Bitcoin or crypto market is not a stable and smooth market, in fact, it is wild in behaviour and hence things move faster even than high beta stocks in the regular stock market. You can continue you systematic investment plan to take the advantage of the volatility and don't consider yourself as a latecomer as I believe that anyone getting involved below $10K levels is an early adopter.

You can keep your funds in Bitcoin and even trade in stocks/commodities using the platforms like 1Broker to take advantage of Bitcoin as well as stocks movement. I think this will be a suitable option for you as you already have some experience in this sphere.
heck ya I see the volatility and yes when it does have a nice run up it outperforms my stocks and my stocks aren't doing badly. Closest I can think of was an IPO I was lucky enough to get into, it was during the boom and I made almost six figures in three days. I don't even think that company is around anymore. I know Bitcoin has beaten my best return. By the way I'm not bragging just giving examples on stocks. I have a feeling the market is gonna have a correction and in the near future I'll be taking profits. I love this stuff, what do you do make 1.9 percent on a four year cd? No, you gotta take smart risks to get ahead in life if you weren't born with a trust fund, which I wasn't

I've been investing in stocks for twenty years or so with good results. I also have physical gold just because. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a rich guy, just trying to grow my money so I don't need to bust my balls working till I'm 90. I just recently joined coinbase to acquire some Bitcoin. I know I'm late to the party on top of which right now I'm only using my credit card on Bitcoin so I can only purchase small quantities weekly. Due to the weekly intervals I wasn't able to get in much on the recent drop. Glad I found this forum you guys gave me some practical advice while I was lurking. I'm used to looking at P/E ratio and other guidance in stocks. Bitcoin is a different animal and the best I can figure is it's growth is fueled by the confidence of it in its owners rather than in the numbers behind it or confidence in the government that prints it. I still do think that Bitcoin is a fiat but I know that is a provactive statement. Anyway, for people like me, who are getting in within the last few months I fear those crazy returns many of you were fortunate to enjoy are not going to be for us. I do beleive Bitcoin will still grow, just not like it has. So for now my plan is to use my coinbase limits to make small acquisitions and as I feel confident I will link coinbase to another source which will increase my buying power. I'm still deciding how much I want to put into Bitcoin. I want to understand better the safety of coinbase etc. although I'm getting in late I'm glad I'm getting in, if nothing else a little more diversification and of course to see where Bitcoin goes. Thanks I hope we all do well, this is my first post by the way.

Getting into Bitcoin today isnt late, instead we are lucky to get or invest while Bitcoin is about to go to the moon, as its gaining more popularity, making more investors to get involved, and businesses are starting to recognize and accept Bitcoin as a form of payment globally. Youre experience in stock market will bring you closer to success in Investing on Bitcoin I guarantee that. Trading would become easy for you once your hands on. Good luck and have a great and succesful investment.
