Topic: I have 10 BTC. I want to invest! but where? - page 2. (Read 2357 times)

I would recommend taking half (5 BTC), and use that to buy 100 units of PETA mining shares on Havelock investments. Each unit currently gives 2.88 Gh/s of mining. You only get 2/3 back as dividends and the other 1/3 is used to buy more ASIC chips to compensate for the hash rate increase. You benefit from any new ASIC chips purchased, so the 2.88 Gh/s per share will go up as time goes on. The link to Havelock is as follows:

You of course can sell the PETA shares and get some (if not all) of your initial investment back in a few weeks after collecting weekly dividends. Dividends will initially be quite high and that should drive the share price up. Alternatively you could hold the 100 units of PETA long term. You should get a full 5 BTC just in dividends within 6 months to a year depending on hash rate increase. Any dividends after that will be extra gravy and you still will have the 100 units.

Personally I think PETA is a good option for some of your BTC. I do own PETA shares and that might make me biased. Keep in mind that PETA is just about to receive their chips in a week or two, so they have not started mining yet. It does not look like there will more delays, but delays could be costly in terms of lost dividends.

There are many other funds on Havelock. Keep in mind that if you invest in a real world business, as opposed to mining, and that business is using the BTC for most of their startup costs, then essentially you are converting those BTC to Fiat. This means that if the value of BTC goes up, usually the share price of those types of businesses go down. If the value of BTC goes down then usually the share price will actually go up.

Please read the prospectus for PETA and see what you think.

why not buy some mining shares?

Diversify into maybe 1 BTC of whatever altcoins you believe will succeed, invest maybe 1 BTC into whichever  gambling site you trust the most, and keep the other 8 BTC in cold storage.

pick a team for the superbowl and best on that

why not putting some into peercoin?

Investing is the same thing as gambling, your taking a risk.

So by that, go gamble what you can afford to lose as for short term. And hold the rest for long term.

I would definitely hold on to majority of them.  I'd invest in some in alt-coins, but I think i'd keep and hold onto my BTC for now.

Invest 3 btc in ppc.
1 btc to primecoin
1 btc to dodge
1 btc to dgc
1 btc to worldcoin

just hold your 3 btc

Sell it all in 2015 thats I would do if I have 10 btc right now.

Buy and hold - except you don't need to buy.

What is your risk/reward tolerance?

like the title suggests, I am looking to invest in a BTC / alt coin currency service.  does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
