If you are only investing to hold bitcoin then you are only buying in to a bubble. Go away, were trying to build something better here.

This is not a bubble...

I am not scared of bears. The price will go up eventually so long as BitCoins has a use as digital currency.

It's likely there will be a correction at some point. But it's hard to predict whether it will happen now, or if it will happen at $150 and correct down to $100.

Sure, that's not a bubble, it's steady growth. Actually I was surprised that the price of BTC didn't go up right away after the halving. But now it makes sense.
We will see dips...that's for sure!!!

Steady growth of new fools coming in...not same rate of growth of new REAL transactions which is what values a currency:

You should ignore me. I won't be replying.

so real transactions is what values a currency? I thought it was offer/demand, silly me... I should re-learn economics and finance all over again... geez.. I've been so blind!

Yes you should. Hopefully you can lookup the Quantity Theory of Money. Set V = 0, what happens to GDP?

Ah sh8t I said I wouldn't reply. F$ck I lied.

So, I didn't see a huge jump in transactions, yet, the BTC price is up again. Care to explain us ohh so smart economist how is it that this happen?
Lol I'm just playing with you... Don't reply, go read an economy book instead

My view is that investing in Bitcoin means that you are adding something of value. Buying BTC is a way of investing. However without spending those coins you are not getting the best out of your investment. If you want your investment to grow further... try to add more value the the network, either by being a consumer, a merchant or miner. There are other ways too: http://bitcoin.org/en/support-bitcoin

Great simple way of saying it! I completely agree..

In regards of just the price, I think is a great investment long term.. even if tomorrow will be $50, in a year it will be much more than $100..

Im not saying it is a bubble, im saying it will become one if more and more money flows in to bitcoin, without having any use for it at all.

I'd say investing in Bitcoins would still high risk. But high risk has high rewards if it works out. It's such a new concept, it could crash, it could revolutionize the monetary world. I'd suppose at this point it would be better than penny stocks, but hell, ya never know. Tongue

The depends of how much risk you want to take. My opion is that Bitcoin are never going to go down. Now there maybe a sell off and it will back off, then that would be a good time to buy. However, we just has one of those, so it would be up to you to jump in.

25% seems a bit much, but I'm sure that there are people investing more here Grin

There's also the option to invest your bitcoin in dividend paying stocks and bonds.

Purchase a fixed amount every week (or every day). Don't try to time the market if you think Bitcoin is going to hang around for a while. Nobody likes buying at the top, but if you dollar cost average you won't feel like a douche when the price drops the day after you invested the entire amount...

About a year ago I started from 5% of BTC. Now I regret I didn't buy more as the most of my "low risk" assets were burnt on Cyprus bank account.

There's always Spain.

.10 for a risk bullish move is a solid number, but just to beat that horse: assume you'll lose it and forget the dips.
