Well I personally try to stay away from those 500%+ PoS. It simply does not seem viable.
Anything below 100% a year is possible and sustainable.

I would wait to see the next gen of ASIC and then decide if i grab some newer ASIC or cheaper ASIC that get dumped from the upgrade in difficulty.
Should be able to ROI pretty fast and lose only little value!

Nah, the price of this new gen s gonna be up big time. Only later will they start reducing the price when they satisfy that early adopters market.

Litecoin, 2 months ago. 
It still is, probably, a good investment.

Can you tell me after the next bubble please so I at least have a chance ?
I think you still might have a change. LTC will not stay at this price, it s still 28 days till halving.

not all PoS coins are good but a moderately intelligent person can make a choice which ones to select.
this
everyone who spend time researching altcoins know there are 500+
and like 100 of them are serious
and like 50 of them are promising
if u want to understand what place altcoins can fill beside bitcoin
and not in a atempt to replace bitcoin check out this:

This "POS reward" is such a bullshit. You are not paid in Bitcoin. You are SELLING your Bitcoin to get some shitcoins that have inflation, and that inflation (POS) is paid back to you in the shitcoins. And guess what? Long term the value of any altcoin always goes down comparing to Bitcoin, no matter how good that coin is. So yes, you got 50% more shitcoins in POS, but by the time you get them they cost much much less in BTC.
I really cannot understand why people comment stuff they have no clue about. I can show you my PoS portfolio I ve been building for the last year. It has brought me NOTHING but profit. Again, I can provide proof about this. I will be able to do that in a year again. True, not all PoS coins are good but a moderately intelligent person can make a choice which ones to select.
Instead of actually reading a bit about PoS coins, all you do write shit about coins you know nothing about. I suppose you have an equally profitable investment you can share with me in exchange, ha?
Unless you main advice is "get BTC and sit on them". That s really revolutionary idea.

1. Buy a PACMiC contract from Hashnest
2. Buy S5 hashrate from Hashnest
3. Put it onto Haobtc
4. Lend it out on Bitfinex as either USD or Btc
5. Probably buy another PACMiC contract or trade other hash's

Cash it out and buy some Amazon stocks. At the current price, you can get about 2 or 3 shares. And within a year, you'll probably double it.

So, if you had to select only 1 single BTC related investment to put 5 BTC into it, what would that be?
I know a lot of people re going to say there are no safe and sustainable BTC investments but I strongly disagree. Once you exclude HYIPs and ponzies, you can do well in the crypto world.
What would you choose and why?

I would put it into a profitable investment pool at a well established P2P lending site operating in the United States or a similar company with a strong regulatory framework, a company that is operating in compliance with the proper listing authorities and is backed by substantial venture capital. There are a few companies offering these sort of "investment pools" and the returns are quite reasonable.
50% stake reward beat 19% lending reward
and additional the potential on growing value is much higher
so u have all value gains + the 50% POS rewards
in my opinion not many option can beat a investment of the 5 BTC into DMD

For me, the problem is, I have to earn 5 BTC first. 
Well, u ve gotta to spend money to make money. There s no other way around.
i beg to differ, in the last year when altcoin era was really thriving, it was possible to earn btc for free basically, via the well known instamine with 10 sec there was the possibility to do 0.5 or more in btc
Yes, this is now over with. People have gotten much smarter. Last year I've got 1 BTC of Community Coin for free for example. Then 0.5 BTC of Coffee Coin for free as well. I mean it was that easy, but these days are long gone!

NXT!! And I did invest few weeks ago just in case since you never know in crypto world.
These guys are so hard working. Level of features that they already released is mind blowing and they keep releasing and releasing. I think this is the only crypto that releases everything that they promise, apart Bitcoin. I keep hearing about their unfair distribution and this is actually only concern about them. I don't know, if they survived until now with such a distribution then I think they will survive in the future as well.
All in all, we will see, I took a gamble!

I think that no one want to give up 50% POS income.
Just a lot of people don`t know about it

Coins produce coins, I like that.
we aim multinational markets chinese and arabic and india
for arabic where loan with interest is something "bad" because of religion
i think the way a POS coin produce interest is a great solution
noone get a dept so it should be allowed even from their religious view to
invest in this kind of interest bearing asset
lets see if im right
we seek a arabic speaking crypto entusiast help us translate and promote in that area
[email protected] if u interested
(we seek a chinese community manager too..... same contact email
for translations we found multiple possible solutions already)
but the main question is POS which generate interest without anybody gets a dept
this would be outside this religious limits and so combatible with islam?
This is simple. Once you have coins in your wallet and they mature, the block splits in two and in the process it mints new coins. For example, a block of 100 coins splits into 2 blocks of 50 coins each and they also generate 7 coins extra. This is just an example.
I know this sounds strange for people who have never deal with PoS before but this is a system which s been around for years. DMD Diamond uses it 2+ years and there are several other PoS coins based on this system. I recommend to get a DMD Diamond wallet from the home page https://bit.diamonds/, get some coins from cryptsy https://www.cryptsy.com/markets/view/DMD_BTC and try. If you re still not sure about this, go slow, buy some smaller amount and test it. You ll love it, I guarantee it.
