its better to invest, by investing you can earn a lot of money as the price might be different after some time and it would let people to get rich, of course its a bit of gambling but you cant earn money without risks
Yeah all ways have risk but gambling is not way to earn, and not recommended on person that only have a flawed intelligence about gambling and its risk. And its better to save than to invest.

There is real data about  bitcoin too, it is calculated precisely in a similar fashion.

What does Satoshi has to do with my bitcoins? He doesn't have to do shit personally, neither does Warren Buffet have to do with anything when I invest my money in coco cola.

Um hello, same goes with stocks!

There is no absolute guarantee that coca cola will never be bankrupt, they've had their losses too. The biggest players in the market have had losses, man. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/warren-buffett-loses-25-billion-in-three-days-on-cocacola-and-ibm-9811613.html

You miss the point, Satoshi dude is the one who claims to be the founder of bitcoin. So yes i need to know more of him. I can predict that Satoshi dude is an imaginary character made by the country which developed bitcoin... Then which country is that? Then yeah i can predict it is USA. That is not because i am smart, that is because it is f***n obvious.

Then why they hide themselves? Something shady going on man.

part2,

Lol Bringing Warren Buffet to the conversation?!? What the hell man... Have i ever said put all your money into Coca-cola shares? No.

There is real data about the shares you are looking to buy. Like the company's yearly gain/loss or smth... What about bitcoin?

Do you know where the fuck Satoshi is? Do you know who he is? Which country behind this project? Why does it rise? Why does it fall? We do not know a crap about bitcoin.

It rises or falls, and we learn the reason why after they happened.

On the other hand you can tell coca-cola won't ever bankrupted and it will be the number 1 coke company as always.

that is why.

If bitcoin seems like gambling to you, what about stocks? They might seem the same to you right? Bitcoin is a long term investment, and many people have reaped its benefit already. It is more than just investing a certain amount and hoping its price will increase.
Then could you give me an example of bitcoin investment? I only know about hodling, but I think that just a saving, not investment.

As per real estate, it is only an investment if it is at a good place and location. And most often, people cannot afford investing in real estate because its too costly.
Its not hard to find good location for your real estate investment. You should need high capital to get high profit in your investment.


You can find real estates for every budget. You just got to be careful with renting prices. you know "price to rent ratio"

Buy real estate and rent it.

Best investment in every age.

You need big amounts of money? Sell the estate, and you still got the rent payments. Sounds good to me.

Bitcoin on he other hand, is not an investment option. It is more like gambling.

Many people are hoping bitcoin to rise, but they do not have a clue about bitcoin.

Is it better to save money in bank or invest it online, in real estate or maybe gold?

For sure to invest. But you must know something. The money are invested even in bank. You earn interest on your money and this is investment. Are low earnings but are earnings. This is the first thing. The second thing is that is not important where or when are invested the money but how much can be earned from those and, this is important, haw safe is this investment. The principal rule is: More earnings less safe in the investment. So everyone make its choice. There is people who want few and invest in banks. There are others that want much more and invest online (when the warranties are at the minimum). At everyone his choice.

You are using the wrong term for this basically you are not investing but you are saving as because the main point of this would not be to get more but rather to secure your belongings. Saving is about securing your belongings and security .
The words investing is only used if you are looking to get more of what you have invested which means that there is an interest rate that you gain from each of your capital
I think its better if you could explain what the examples of investment in bitcoin to us here, since many people hard to differ what is investment and saving just from those meaning, which in saving we also can get interest with time deposit.

The idea of "only investing in Bitcoin what you can afford to lose" is backwards. I'm investing in Bitcoin all the money that I want to SAVE. Unlike my fiat bank accounts, my Bitcoin wallets can not be seized by the state nor frozen by a corporation.

I don't think so that investing in bitcoin is a bad idea, but I also don't think that investing only the money you can afford to lose is a bad idea either. I mean, come on man. Bitcoins are something which are an unstable investment, there is a higher risk of bitcoin's price dropping and me losing all my savings if I invest in btc rather than my bank turning against me and being a bitch. I'd rather take my chances and not lose my hard earned money. I will invest in bitcoin, not save Smiley

When I was introduced to bitcoin, it was referred to me as the safest way of banking. I really question that now as my funds keep fluctuating and I don't think a bitcoin wallet might be the best place to keep all of my savings. That's why I diversify my investments and keep them in my btc wallet but my savings will always be in the bank or at home.

Savings or investment depends on the need of the individual. Savings is good for contingent situations as you can use it for any unforseen circumstances but savings will make your money idle While investment can go two way, either you make profit on the investment or loss.

Hahaha its not impossible that the bitcoin price goes up, because we all know that the stability of the price is not stable and change in every hour.
Yeah actually I am same with you, hoping bitcoin price goes up someday atleast reach $500, but I cant see anything that can become a trigger to make its price goes up rapidly. With Greek crisis, its price went up just around $50.

Of course is a risk, Antonopoulous always says so himself, BTC is very high risk investment, but as should you know, if you play in the high risk leave, you play in the high rewards league (assuming big losses league are included, but things look good).
I prefer to do sport gambling then, which dont need long time to get the result. Its really very risky to make bitcoin as long term investment.

Hahaha user's problem, they got panic if they saw that bitcoin price is going down. But we all know that bitcoin price is temporary and its stability change anytime. Just have a long patience when the price of bitcoin goes up again.
And what do you think about bitcoin price that have reached $1,000 but went down and never go up to that price again? There were people who lost much because of that, and blamed their friends who recommended bitcoin for them as an investment. We need aware to little change in bitcoin price, dont need to panic, just aware it.
We all know that everything has a risk, so if you used something you must know the responsibilities. Yes you are correct they should aware about that, but why you used bitcoin or try it if you don't even know what it can do with your money? I think your friend should told you about that.
Investment is a way to get profit which we should reduce any risks or anything to get profit as much as we can. Seems you havent got into bitcoin in 2014 when its price was $600 and went down next months until $300 now. Hodling bitcoin is a risk, then I only can say good luck to you, hope you will get much profit.

Of course is a risk, Antonopoulous always says so himself, BTC is very high risk investment, but as should you know, if you play in the high risk leave, you play in the high rewards league (assuming big losses league are included, but things look good).
