Topic: Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today? - page 34. (Read 253349 times)
Unlike the time period whether today or tomorrow, bitcoin buying is always found to be profitable due to the high growing potential it has got compared to most other digital currencies that got into existence following bitcoin.
Not at all for just a ~590 USD investment. You could instead invest with that Bitcoin. Long-term trading with Bitcoin is already dead from my point of view.
For today, i think yes, it's a good one to invest 1 bitcoin on bitcoin for long term, but it's only for 1 bitcoin not many bitcoins. Because i think it's still risky if you invest more than 1 bitcoin.
I think now is a suitable time to buy bitcoin or invest money that you have in the form of bitcoin, and I think it might be better to invest more than 1 BTC, because the current price of bitcoin was stable, so it may be better to invest more than 1 BTC, because if the price of bitcoin to $ 600, I think you've gotten lucky enough

not so good if you only invest 1 BTC for the long term. not at risk, but this investment will be futile, when the price of bitcoin increase in the future. do not worry when you believe bitcoin and put a lot of money for the future.

It's good idea everytime, i think that price will increase everytime, and someday you will get good profit from your invesment, but i am not from people who like to wait

Yeah, indeed for now I see that bitcoin is a very profitable investment for the long term. because the price of the bitcoin unstable and ever-changing every 4 years (depending on the situation), makes me strategize in order to enliven the price increase. Would not be a bad thing for us to keep as much as possible the BTC

If you bought 1 bitcoin when the price was still at $200, it would have given you more than a 100% return in just a few years. That is not a bad investment at all, considering that not many investments can give that much yield in a given period of time. Thinking long term should be what we are doing. Instead of panic selling whenever the price go down, we must just be patient and look at the price movement on a long term basis. Now that the price is still at below $600, I still consider it a good price to buy at.

For me - No it is not a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today, or any other day after Nov, 2013.
That being said, again - for me, it is a good long term investment to purchase "X" amount of BTC.
(Exhibit A) 1 BTC: If got a 100% gain on 1 BTC within 1 or 2 months. That would awesome (+$580 gain). (Probability low). More realistically though we might see a gain of 20-30% or so in that time frame (+$116 - $174 gain). At one year it is likely to grow %20 - %70 (+$116 - $406 gain).
(Exhibit B) "X" BTC: If I got a 100% gain on this investment, incredible.
But even with a mere 20% gain within the 1 year holding - would exceed Exhibit A at 100% gain.
Pragmatically, you should weigh the dollar amount you have available to invest against the attainable gain % versus what you are looking to achieve.
Personally, to buy 1 BTC on a long term hold doesn't make a good investment option for me.
- I'm assuming by "long term investment" you mean the average holding of 1 year or more.
- I'm using the example that BTC will be at least slightly bullish until 2017-08-21
- "X" = 10 or more

As I have said to someone, it may be a good idea, looking through a long-term perspective.
yeah it is a really great investment option to buy that much bitcoins at the moment though the price might also fall

I think if you look at the future of course everything would sound good idea. because many people are already predicting that the price of bitcoin will rise more than $ 1,000 in futurePrice may even go above $1k in future, but only 1 btc will never make you rich, so its better to invest more in bitcoin to get higher profits in future.
When is the future then ? Investment for long term is a bit risky imo, especially we don't know what happen to the bitcoin on the future, but for 1 bitcoin, it's okay for me.
everything comes with a risk, but the whole point is, do you understand what the risk is, and are you willing to take it to achieve something? if yes, then go ahead and hold your coins for the long term. never blindly put money into something. this nearly always lead to you making losses.
