Topic: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? - page 204. (Read 228970 times)

I would just trade a couple of them and with the ones that I still have I would hold them for a long term period.
Its free so also 100% profit so gambling could also be a option although you can lose a lot of bitcoins by that.

10 btc is really a very huge amount to hold, but I will surely hold it for halving and sell at the time of halving when the prices goes higher.

If I had 10 btc I would store 6 out of them safely on paper wallet or in offline wallet for future.I would invest remaining 4 in bitcoin trading,which to me is only ethical way to increase your bitcoin

I don't understand why you will pay anyone that huge amount unless you believe in charity  If I would have that huge amount then I would prefer to invest in multiple products.

Since 10 BTC are free I would love to give them a shot in a single bet and hopefully if not double it, win at least 5 of it with an odd 1.5, yeah definitely Real Madrid today HT/FT win would have net this result, but remains just a dream after all .

Gambling is not the right thing to do if you hold 10 btc in your wallet, as its far better to hold rather then spending for foolish thing like gambling where you can surely loose all your coins.

well yeah i guess most people would do a lot of gambling with such amount of money as people want to get more and more bitcoins but its definitely not the best way to make money

i think i would just hold all my bitcoins that you gave me because there will be price increases that will make me some good money in a longer run in my opinion, i hope i will be rich because of that

I would do nothing for at least 3-5 months, everyone is expecting a rise in the price of bitcoins. you'll make good profit if you hold on to your bitcoins.

gambling 

I will hold it. I am just hoping for bitcoin price to increase in coming few years, but if that's not the case I would invest a part of 10 btc in buying some alt coin preferably a well established one.

2 BTC - Trading
2 BTC- Investing in other product
1 BTC - Gambling
5 BTC - Hold for the future

Obviously you are going to get very different answers on this type of thread, and what it comes down to is what you feel comfortable with doing.  There are tons of different options people may pitch on here; but what it comes down too, is that you take the time and look into these investment choices and choose the one you feel is "the best".

Now, I would probably take however many bitcoins and buy an oz. of gold and probably a couple oz's of silver, which will probably leave you ~7ish Bitcoins left.  I would keep 1-1.5 in a personal wallet to readily access, 3-3.5 BTC in cold storage, then I would look at your options for the remaining Bitcoins remaining in altcoins.  Now, I know that you and a lot of people consider altcoins as P&D scams, but there are seriously some good stuff that has just came out and old ones that have had serious renovations to them that make them a fair coin that gives users different benefits from just your average Bitcoin blockchain type of coin.

There is a lot of hype around Ethereum right now, which is a completely different animal from Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency for that matter, and it might work well and become very successful in the future... from what I've gathered, it's just a token to work on a decentralized cloud sort of database.  Then you have "anonymous" cryptonote coins, and the one that I've seen that has the "fairest" launch and distribution is Monero... XMR also is doing some pretty ground breaking technology with regard to Ring CT and is interesting (to me atleast); and also you can pay any bitcoin address with Monero anonymously by using XMR.to .

If altcoins doesn't suit your fancy, then I would probably suggest dishing out another .5 BTC to another wallet you might like to gamble with; me personally, I like gambling on golf matches, because I like to watch golf and know a little bit when it comes to who is who, and who might do good in a specific event... plus you get pretty ridiculous odds when you bet on someone to win.  I put like .02 on some guy that I thought would win, and he came like 2 strokes away to winning; which would have won me somewhere close to like 3 BTC.

All in all, there is a lot you can do... just do your own research and see what you think is right to do with that sort of capital.  However, like everyone has said before, I would store a decent amount in cold storage for long term holding purposes because you never will know what will happen to the price a couple years down the road (whether that's good or bad).

Good luck!

Send me 10 btc and I will send you back 5 btc in a day. It will make you feel great to know I gambled half of the bitcoins but earn your trust in returning half of it back. Its a win win for both of us.

I will use half of it to build a small shop in my house or build a small online shop website and use the other 5btc to trade or hold it and wait till the price is increase significantly.

Trading is one of the best way. If you doing rightly it will give you many profit even can doubling your coin . I think i must learn more about this one.

So many responses here are for 'investing' and making more BTCBTCBTCs. Me? I'd splurge on anything. Take a vacation and shizz - it's free money after all. 

the best option that comes to my mind always is keeping the coins. because these days the price of bitcoin is considered low and soon this will change and there is a big profit in it.

aside from that i will use bitcoin to trade altcoins, for example today Dogecoin has gone up from 50 satoshi to 57 satoshi and i could catch a very nice profit in a very short time from my investment.

I would give half to a charitable organization and keep the other half for myself.

Like how? Investing is scam sites?

Not a good idea. I think by just storing it safely, the value will increase faster than by investing in scams and losing money.

I'm gonna trade, invest in small companies and promising altcoins with half of bitcoins and put half in paper wallet for price increase after halving.
