One of my friends is into bitcoins and other alternative coins and he is using this service. www.cryptodeposit.net He invested about 5 btc. 3 of them he already got back with some % in profit and he is now waiting january for next withdrawal. If you verify your indentity on cryptodeposit.net then you will get nice bonuses and stuff but my friend has not yet did that he is using normal account because he said that there is some sort of payment for verified account or something. And I checked on google and internet and I see that there are response from people about this service and its pretty nice, so anyway there is this referral system and my friend sent me it, i've invested now about 0.6 btc and in january I should be able to withdraw. you can also invest other coins like litecoin or feathercoin etc. And they have more services not only investments but some other as well..but am sharing this with u now since u are looking for something like this I suppose. btw account creation system reminds me of a way joining a golf club but it seems secured that way from spam and bots.

Well honestly there is no guarantee your bank which holds your cash will get robbed, bombed or something. EUR USD any other currencies... There will always be thieves and scammers. And dont tell me dollar didnt have rough time. There are currently probably over 100 000 companies who are stealing money from people as we speak, bitcoin or any other crypto is no exception. It is how it is. In the end you can keep ur cash with you in your wallet and hope nobody will beat you up and steal your wallet or you can put them to bank and hope it will not bankrupt or anything else. Speaking of crypto you can keep ur coins in multibit hope ur pc wont crash or ur apartment wont get robbed..or put ur coins into bank or whatever online and hope for not bankrupt or other. Its life. Get used to it.
Yes, thieves will go after anything with value. My point is that bitcoin is not mature enough yet and we have very few legitimate/professional investment options within bitcoin. One day we may have many options, but as it stands now, we do not.As a side note, if you properly secure your coins, no one event (pc crash, ect) will cause a loss.

Yeah but no1 is investing into places such as freewebsite.hello.tk. I have not found any services yet and as I understand you guys havent either but im waiting for future to bring such service to existence.
I mean cmon people use btc-e & mtgox. And at least 1% from 100% gets scammed somehow, whether it is withdrawal problems or trading issues. At the moment companies are like that but lets get real and stop treating investment services like they were scam. because actually you are trusting mtgox and others. Why are u doing that? Because they are legit company, right? Well im taking the same here about legit investment company, so why not trust that?
Each time u use mtgox or any other exchange u are risking so i mean seriously... ?

Not to say something will happen with any particular company, but you should have a look at this thread. Bitcoin has had a rough history with services or investments that hold coins.

The reason why it can't happen now, is today I loan a bitcoin, tomorrow that bitcoin could be half its value, or double its value... its just too high-risk, and thus there is a pretty big chance of losing money.
All good reasons, but how would you explain that I've been lending bitcoins out for the last year? Use bitfinex, easy, varying return percentages. And the best part is - you lend 1 bitcoin, you always get back 1 bitcoin plus interest, and it's value is... exactly 1 bitcoin! Never half or double of that.
ok ,why would i lend my bitcoin to a an untrusted third party to hold it for a year or two
and then take it back with interest and i get back "exactly 1 bitcoin ! Never half or double of that."
why not just keep it myself and eliminate the third party risk ?
Who would want to put in for 1-2 years, im talking about months..
timescale is irrelavant ,they cud steal your coins 5 minutes or 5 years after you hand them over
the point i was making is ,who do you trust enough to be your "bank " ?
i trust me !

A trader buying low and selling high will outperform a holder but he also invests a lot of time and nerves in the process.
Didn't you mean "spends nerves"? They do seem to grow back slowly, but sometimes it sure feels like they're being pruned at the roots!

I was interested in how bitcoin lending works. I got the 1-6% varying on top of the original 1BTC, remember?
Of course there is a risk of the exchange running away, and I'd definitely never put anything larger than 10BTC there. But Mylon said that bitcoin loaning "can't happen now", I just pointed out that it in fact is happening, even if only on exchanges. December 10, 2013, 03:41:18 PM

This thread is so Shakespearian. Can more share a soliloquy?

There are 2 things.
1. Why people use banks? Why people invest in banks ?
2. In the world there are many pussies who better buy 2 btc and wait 50 years for profit than have ballz to trade, invest and do some serious business.
I get all your points what u people saying but get fucking ballz and stop cry about failing.. thing positive ..which u probably dont.. cuz in the whole world there are like 5% of people who have ballz to do crazy success or at least die in trying

No offense, but I have absolutely no idea what you are trying to say here. Maybe you should gather your thoughts, and type them out in a way that doesnt read like a 12 year old texting his friends.

So btc gains aren't enough for you?
You want to invest your btc? Let's have a look at the possible outcomes:
1. Btc goes to zero
2. Btc goes to the moon
You want to invest your btc? Let's have a look at the possible outcomes:
1. Btc goes to zero
2. Btc goes to the moon
3. bitcoin price stabilizes trades sideways
4. bitcoin price drops to (singles, double, low triples) and stabilizes there and trades sideways
5. bitcoin price raises to triples or higher and stabilizes there
6. the bitcoin economy continues to boom and bust with highs and lows all over the map
7. interest in bitcoin dwindles and becomes traded back and forth by a few hardcore hobbyists at a nominal price
There are a lot more possible outcomes than just 0 or "the moon". I really wish people would stop spreading that nonsense.
Yes there are and eventually investment services will take a part in this bitcoin
And? Institutional investment doesn't prevent a single one of the outcomes I've mentioned.

Many bitcoiners are wary of investments or other interest bearing services denominated in bitcoin. Historically, in bitcoin, many of these "investments" or "deposit services" have turned out to be scams or were "hacked", causing great losses for the investors.
As many have already said, bitcoin itself is already rather risky, do you really have anyway of assessing the risk of these bitcoin "investments"? Perhaps there will be more professional and legitimate services in the future, but as it stands now where would invest your coins?
