Why would you sell your BTC?

BTC IS the investment. Hold your BTC and then put fiat into some other BTC investment  (like stock in an exchange or investing in an  ETF.)

Nah, this is not acceptable for me and I do not advise other people to do so.

Why? If we all hold, nobody uses crypto. If nobody uses crypto, there will be no increased acceptance. If there s no increased acceptance, there ll be no price growth.

You know how people in RL investing suggest differentiate 1/3 in securities, 1/3 in real estate and 1/3 in savings. Is there something like that in crypto? Has anyone found any sustainable crypto security?

No not yet. Investing in crypto right now is buying Bitcoin or some altcoins.That's pretty much it.
If you wanna diversify your portfolio add some precious metals, some stocks and if still money left go with property.

The only comparison in "crypto" is owning multiple crypto-currencies.

There may be Bitcoin companies you can be stock in or a Bitcoin investment fund, but you should just put your fiat into those, not Bitcoin.

I'd prefer trading in options or forwards with that amount of Bitcoins. Apart from that I would also prefer to save some of those and hope for the price of Bitcoin to rise over time and probably later invest it again.

Putting bitcoins as investment is not a decision to do quickly. Obviously, chances for loss and profit are equal. If I ever had 5 btc (actually, i don't have now, I don't even know when I'll have, it's a huge amount you know), I would invest it all for spreading of bitcoins... for it's development.. for it's expandability in all places. I don't have any personal reason behind it. But, I want BTC to be used by everyone, everywhere. Of course, bitcoins will improve if It's used by more people. So, I will invest my btc for btc. And as far as, 1 BTC return is considered, I've no problem even if I don't get that.

By buying and holding BTC you are in a way supporting every single venture invested on Bitcoin and developing services around it. If the price of Bitcoin goes up, everyone invested on it in any way benefits indirectly.

Everything seems risky at this point.
But buying an index fund or stable bond would be a good idea

The top two choice would be Ethereum and Monero.

Ethereum is a coin as well as a trading, program platform. You can do a lot in the platform, such as smart contract.

Monero is anonymous coin, it is untraceable. If you want privacy, this is a good choice.

Does anyone know about any simple guide how to mine Etherum? I m trying to find something user friendly, like scrypt GPU mining.

Thx.

If not Etherum, anything else worth of using home GPU for mining? I know this is money lost ATM but at least something with a great potential in the future.

Ethereum is the only profitable coins for some people.

I only have the guide for Windows:

i would invest in my own wallet. holding btc is the best investment!!
or, i would take punt on altcoin Tongue

What kind of BS advice is this? If you have nothing to contribujavascript:void(0);te, pls dont.

Has anyone tested this halleybtc savings option? It seems interesting, unless it s another crypto scam. They also run some kind of promotion ATM.

Most comments made by accounts under full member seem to just be there to boost their activity up and are totally unrelevent to the discussion.
your post makes sense about you.
You seem to be mad, at all the newcomers coming into bitcoin. You were a noob once, deal with it.
/Looking at your other posts, it seems to me that you have a history of not staying on topic.

OT: If bitcoin crashes every alt will go up 10fold. So investing in alts while bitcoin is at the top seems to be a good idea in my opinion.

You could do some trading with cryptos or you could do some cloud mining on hashnest and trade your GHS while mining at the same time!

NXT, no doubt.

NXT is the most promising altcoin nowadays. ETH is just pure shills, and monero is not yet developed.

NXT has already many featured that surpass any other crypto.

If this is true, why has NXT seen just decrease in price. I dont follow it closely but since it went out, the price kept going down.

But yes, I generally agree, good coins and an excellent potential behind it.
A little birdie said that there are a lot of releases on the nxt platform next year. Price is going down because whales dumping their load on traders. Whales don't have unlimited stock. At least so I've heard.

I would probably invest in Ethereum. Microsoft deal is a huge thing no other coin has such a company backing it.

Has anyone been able to find a decent guide how to mine Etherum? I d like to try that with my home GPUs.
