Topic: Is it wise to invest 1k into Bitcoin at this point? (Read 2118 times)
Looking at the values of bitcoin rising steadily every few months for the past few years, a lot of media have been reporting more positive news about bitcoin, I think it is a very good idea to invest in bitcoin now as the price might surge to another high record in year 2018.
It it always wise to invest in bitcoin the price doesn't matter it just your greedy mind which is forcing you to ask these questions. What i mean is you mentality it if i put 1000$ when will it become 2000$. According to the price is has to be 8000$ for your investment to double but eventually if the price increases to 5000$ you can earn 300$ which is really it just your mind which makes you feels greedy that why can't you double like everyone else
It isn’t actually a bad decision as bitcoin is really hot in the market right now, so if you invest 1k right now, you should be ready to earn 100% ROI in 6months or less as bitcoin is very fast.

Have you heard of DENT yet? It's a coin that represents a big project, it's really very successful, I've invested a lot in it, and now I'm waiting for a boost from this coin.
It is always good time to invest. But first read more about bitcoin it price fluctuation cause after some time after invest you will start questining your investment and maybe sell in loss. Usually that happens and than BTC raises the price again so you are actually in a loss. Patience is a key in this investments.
Of course it is wise look at the price. Look at the history of the price. This is one of the easiest Investments out there. There is absolutely nothing to it. Even if the bitcoin price is 4000$ at this point, it is still less then it is actual future price which is nearly 5000 to 6000$ as predicted by the analysts by the year end 2017. Bitcoin is one thing in which everyone can safely invest no matter how high is the price. This is really amazing to have such a currency which always gives you profit if you invest in it.

1k dollars is a good value of money to start investing in bitcoin, if you have the money now and want to start investing in bitcoin, I think you'd better buy bitcoin now because the bitcoin price is stable in the last few days or you can start it at Altcoins, as the price of altcoins is weakening and it will definitely rise again.
Yeah buying bitcoins and investing in altcoins is the best move to make as altcoins have huge potential to give you best returns in quick time so if you invest in best coin then you can make really good profits in quick time and even holding bitcoin for a long term can give you good profits.
It's a known fact that some altcoins can bring you more profit than Bitcoin if you invest in them, especially in the short term. The question is which alts to choose? It's easy to lose all your money when investing in the wrong altcoin. Many people lost a lot investing in Zcash, for example, although it looked so good in the beginning. That's why I'd stick to Bitcoin, being no big expert in other alts.

My input is that to invest just 100$ in these days in bitcoin because I know that tomorrow my 100$ USD would be 200$ so it's far better for me to join bitcoin right now with 100$ USD. Because it will make me better in future as I earn from bitcoin 75% of them I will invest once again so I would like to say that I should join bitcoin right now because this is a great time to join.

With a variety of considerations, it maybe someone choose cancel to invest in bitcoin and that's not an idiot. However, if my position has $1K, i wouldn't hesitate to buy bitcoin. There are many ways to make money and not always from bitcoin, because altcoin is profitable too.
No not at all. If you have 1000$ means,bitcoin is the only place to inverse your money. Even if you inverse in gold means it will give little bit profit .But in bitcoin it's entirely different. When ever you want profit means you can sell the holding bitcoin to get the how much profit you want.

Anybody who tells you not to invest into bitcoin is an idiot, it's one of the best performing investments in the world over the last couple of years. The price will continue to fly up too.
Depends the opinion of everyone, if some people know any type investment better than Bitcoin and can helps them have an income stable, this is reason make them don't like bitcoin and do not investing to it because they understand the risk for try invest to Bitcoin high than their job. maybe this is not the time to invest 1k wait till the price drop up to $2k in order to get a good comeback from your funds. or do trading instead. Bitcoin is the best thing to invest to but this is just not the right time for that because anytime bitcoin would have it big dump and that's the best moment to invest, sometimes bitcoin drop price when it's on around 6pm forum time.
Do you really think that price will go back to $2k in coming months? I really don't see it happening as price is moving higher and higher and now most of us are hoping to see the price of $5k in next few days or months so even if he invests right now he can make good profits by selling his coins when it crosses $5k price.
Add slowly every week
Investing or putting money on bitcoin is always wise to get in no matter which time you would decide specially if you are really longing for longer term targets and as been said above adding slowly small amount on bitcoin would really add up your bitcoin savings and this is what im doing now which is also a good way on becoming successful on bitcoin world. You may buy some altcoin in the market which you seem would give you money then proceed but since you are asking about bitcoin then its still the best choice.
wait for November, you might get 0.5 BTC for 1k. But if I were you, I'd go all in in OmiseGo (OMG). Get some info and do your due diligence. Money is not to be made on Bitcoin.

get in as soon as possible, it is not too late ,it does not matter what price you buy,3000,or 4000. all you have to do is holding
That's true. I remember some time back a friend of mine said "I regret I haven't bought BTC earlier but now it's obviously too late". And Bitcoin was $1,800 at the time.
Yes, it would be a wise move to invest 1k into Bitcoin at this point. While it is unclear whether Bitcoin will go over 10k USD in the near future, there is no doubt that it will go above 5k.

yes , the price could still rising to unlimited value ! as an early adopter said and did , they will never cashout their bitcoin until it has reached $1 million dollar or at least $100k! so your $1k could still turn up to 100 times , nobody knows about that right ?take a risk now or crying and regret later , just like when you see the price of bitcoin only $10 7 years ago and now it is $4,500.
What is your input?
Yes, because at this moment, and as we are seeing right now, Bitcoin is on fire. Continuous increase on it market value is happening. If you'll invest now and buy Bitcoin, you'll just hold it and see how high will bitcoin increase. It will be a good decision to invest at this point where Bitcoin is more in demand as it was before.
Add slowly every week
What is your input?
Wise or not, go throw it away on bitcoin.
If you are here in the forum way back when the price was still on $1,000 for the first time since the last time it happened, there are some questions about if it's too late to ride the wave? Hesitation coems up to the mind of others and instead of buying they want to wait for more dips but it didn't happened. And still the same concern was being brought up while the price is increasing. If you look chronologically, the price suffers price crash but in the end, the rise is way more higher.
Now come to think of it after all those happenings. Do you think it's wise to invest on bitcoin right now?
What is your input?
Of course. I always wanted to buy some Bitcoin but I cannot since I cannot afford to buy some even at a small percentage. Not that I am so poor or something, I just do not have some money now that I can afford to lose. If you will invest 1000 USD now, it might gain profit since all are seeing Bitcoin boarding a new rocket.
At this point? I have to say yes to that. If only I have 1000 USD in possession, I will definitely invest it to Bitcoin immediately. I am pretty confident that Bitcoin will still increase in price. The only question for you is for how long do you need/want to hold your Bitcoin? If it is for a short period of time only, you might not get a lot or even lose some; but if you will hold 'em for a long period of time, a year or so, then I suggest that you get on board now!
It depends on how necessary that money is for you.
If you say that you would invest that money anyway into something, then go ahead.
If you think it's a good way to make profit in a short time because you need the profit, be careful.
I would not see bitcoin as a short term investment.
To be on the safe side, I would calculate with some time to sell it again.

If you're planning to invest it for a long term investment I would suggest yes because I believe bitcoin is still undervalued and that it would probably increase after some quite time. But if it's for short term investment better wait till the price goes down because as of this time the value of bitcoin is really high and you might not earn if you invest now
get in as soon as possible, it is not too late ,it does not matter what price you buy,3000,or 4000. all you have to do is holding
This is right. It's currently in a bull market with no forseeable major negative catalyst, except for another hard fork in november (which, by all means, means nothing for the bitcoin network but the market will move sentimentally).

Right now investing with bitcoin is good decision. As the price increase taking place in multiples of 100$ and above surely even a 0.1btc gives a profit to the invested amount. So 1k it's quite possible to buy more than 0.2 btc which can get a good profit. Maybe the same if held for years can benefit good in future.
At this point it's quite risky if you invest 1K because I think the value of bitcoin is high enough for this year, Maybe bitcoin value will continue to increase but for this year I think it has reach it's maximum amount...better wait when the value of bitcoin crashed again since it continue to fluctuates. The best time to invest is when the price is low and sell when the price is high.
Any investment in highly volatile instruments will always involve risks inherent to any investment of this nature, since no one in this forum or any other specialized site has been able to predict the bitcoin behavior in the long or medium term. But if you can afford to risk that money, it can certainly be a good decision although you could expect for some correction to buy below $4000.
I would advise you to watch the market for some time before you actually buy bitcoins. The volatility is at peak and the chances are such that you might end up losing your money especially if you are looking for quick gains and don't intend to hold it for long but ultimately it's a decision you have to take on your own. Although there might appear fair chances of bitcoin prices going up but don't ignore the possibility of them going down too altogether.
Buying bitcoins for now is very good decision but if you can wait for little backward dip then you might earn good with it at this moment. But If you speculate something good will be happen on bitcoins then you should buy right now since bitcoins price is pretty fast moving and the price rage is getting more faster and maybe for now we can see some great major lift until 5000$ will be reached.
Well buying bitcoin is always good decision so if you really want to make a good profit better to invest it in bitcoin and hold it for a long time. . but first wait for the price to decrease first a little bit just to get the benefits of the price dump and pump..
Wait for a good timing this is why other can make a good profit daily.. even you are seeing a huge price increase there is possibility that the price of bitcoin can be increase more soon..

People who ignore the down moves are not making max returns.
Most people are too dumb to benefit from the volatility that this market offers to people. It's not for nothing that people end up selling at a loss when the price is tanking big time -- they just blindly invest in Bitcoin just assuming they will make some quick profits. Fact is that if you need to hear from others whether or not it's a good time to invest in Bitcoin, you don't know what you are doing, and you're obviously not ready for the volatility. These people are purely gambling as there is no thought or analysis to their actions.
Only if you have more to throw in later, when prices are much lower. This market is moving, in both directions, every day. Be prepared to sell part of what you buy today for a fast profit, and buy back cheaper. People who ignore the down moves are not making max returns.
What is your input?
When it comes to Bitcoins, it's never too late to invest, if you have the fujds, I'd advise that you invest more into the currency. This is one sure investment that is sure not to fail at all, it maybe a while but you are going to see profits eventually.
It's worth it, just note that it may take a year or more for bitcoin price to raise by 50%, and even in such case you'll only earn $500, which isn't anything big. Best case scenario in a year you'll make enough to buy a new PC.
Worst case scenario we'll have a large correction, like the one throughout 2014 and you'll have to wait for another 2 years to profit.

Depends on your goal. If you're investing, I mean on the long run, then anytime is good. But if you want to make quick buck, buying low, selling high, then you should wait because there will be a dump to 3000 or something like that. But you will need to catch that moment because soon after that, the price will go up again.
Can you explain why you think this will be the case? Have you observed this pattern previously?

I've seen people asking that (not necessarily that amount) since 2010 and the answer is that no one knows, but if you believe in the transformative ability of bitcoin, that should give you a good idea.
I am not a financial adviser, you are responsible for your own decisions, you should take the time do your own research and come to your conclusions. But you Bitcoin is $4,300 each right now and easily hit $9,000 by the end of the year, essentially doubling your money in 4 months or so.
Invest in Bitcoin always profitable, past result something like indicate that. Bitcoin going to the moon, after segwit active a tremendous impact on Bitcoin price. It is called worth investment.

I believe it is if you can afford to invest that much. Could be that the price will be dumped a little, but it could also get up in the upcoming days. Anyway, in both scenarios you will make profit if you buy Bitcoins because the price will for sure rise and on that high invested amount you could earn a very nice sum. It's not impossible to see 5000$ even this year.
I think that we saw too rapid a price rise so it was a real. I wouldn't now buy bitcoin. Probably need to wait. Towards the end of August, the price should stabilize and show your real figure. This price as it is now should be the end of the year.
What is your input?
I think you should wait for some time, there will be slightly correction in the bitcoin value. Once the price is low you can buy the bitcoin at lower price. But as per me 1K is very less investment, you should invest little more if you want to see more profit.
It is possible to wait and buy at a price a little lower than current. But we don't know what will happen. We might see much higher price in coming days. In my opinion the risk doesn't worth it. Think about long-term and invest right now.
of course, bitcoin is right now is a movement which will make a guaranteed profit everyone is possibly extracting profits from the markets as much they can. bitcoin was always the best option for the long term investments but now it is even the best possible investment which can make you rich in just 1year or if not then of course in 2years. it is generating profit in extream rate and I am sure banks are already roasted due to their jealousy and hates.

1k isn't much to be honest. Though I would say that it is still good to invest into bitcoins. I would say before the end of the year we could
even reach $10,000 each at this rate. Also, after all the drama about the forks the past couple of months this is really a good time to invest
as it has already been cleared and bitcoins is gaining a lot of popularity.
No. I would buy a few Bitcoin Cash though.
It really depends on your investment strategy and patience level. If you are holding Bitcoin for the long haul (more than 6 months) then anytime would be a good time to buy in. Of course, timing the price so you get a good value is both a good idea and risky at the same time.
Who knows when the price will go up to $5000? There is little chance of it dropping to $0, so you really have to do a risk assessment on the market and yourself.
Either way, most of the world is skeptical or just now learning about Bitcoin, so there is still major opportunity ahead especially with its limited supply and expanding uses.
You could gamble on cheaper altcoins and then invest the profits into Bitcoin, but imo that is more risky than buying Bitcoin flat out.

You should probably see the prices and the ups and downs in them from last 7 days or so, and you will have a clear idea if it is a good time to invest or not. Well, if i had that money and i was looking to invest them somewhere, i would do it of course, seeing the potential bitcoin has in future that is something i couldn't ignore at all, but, as it is always said, "Listen to everyone, do what you think is right."
The price is soaring high and it is almost at its current resistance level. You could buy when it drops a bit like 4K or less. You could buy some alts though, they are all red this past few days. They will make good profit when the price stabilize a bit.
What is your input?
It's not necessarily a bad idea, I wouldn't be against it, but there's a lot of money they can be made off of investing in other cryptos, using Bitcoin as a means to trade them. While it comes down to pump n dumps, and there's a fair amount of volatility and variability (especially since no crypto will ever stick around for long once it hits its own pump stage), there is a lot more value in this activity than passively waiting for the Bitcoin market to go up or down. Investing in Bitcoin as a tool, and less as a "real" investment, and start to put money into shitcoins and make money off of their own markets. What is your input?

I suppose 1k is too much for you. You invest in bitcoin if you can forget this money for a long time. Bitcoin will increase upwards for sure but it may have big corrections in this time. You have to hold and forget about this money.
What is your input?
Although several people in this thread suggest to invest in other altcoins and some suggest to invest in both, alts and BTC, I think if you have little to nothing knowledge about alts it's better to invest in Bitcoin solely. Bitcoin has now great potential and it is possible, like michkima said, that the price might reach $10k by the end of this year.
Im more so into long term investing, I will be purchasing other coins as well. I just wanted to know if it was wise to add bitcoin to my protfolio
Yes it is wise to invest in Bitcoin. There are some expectations of Bitcoin going through correction since the price rise steadily for the past weeks. If you buy at high price now, the opportunity cost will be losing the chance to buy at lower point. For me, I will buy at this point of time since I am holding for long term. And no one knows what is the lowest price if correction happens.

Its better to invest that $1k in multiple coins rather than only in bitcoin. Invest 50% of it in bitcoin, 30% in ethereum and 20% in litecoin. In this way you can limit your risk of losing all you have and also this can increase your chances of making good profit in long term holding.
Dude, this is a bitcoin forum and all you're going to hear is people telling you it's a great idea. Do some reading here and you'll find an answer to your question one way or another.
Personally I think it's a good idea, but bitcoin is very volatile and very risky. If that $1000 is extra money, go for it. If you would be suicidal if you lost it all tomorrow, don't do it. And don't listen to people who tell you to buy their pet shitcoin. They're bagholders looking for a sucker to unload on.

For me it is okay as Bitcoin only did some corrections but I think it will soar high again after the Segwit will be fully activated, don't expect a dip in price cause for me it is not likely to happen the resistance is strong in $4000 so my advice is go for it but take the full risk at your own. It is much better to invest until the year 2017 ends instead of investing for a short term so good luck to your $1k.
for short term the risks are currently higher since bitcoin price has been rising with little stop so far it may need a longer correction than what we just saw in previous days.
but for long term investment, there is so little to worry about as bitcoin price will rise in long term for sure.

It actually depends on how long are you planning to invest. Today, we had value as low as $3985 and the highest is about $4400. I think it's better to wait for not higher than 4100 before you invest.
If you are planning for a long term investment like minimum of 6months to 1 year, then you can invest your thousand by all means. But I'd rather you study the trend first.

I wouldn't advise someone to do it.
Invest in shitcoins instead.
Litecoin, STORJ, FLO, LBC, AMP, VIA, great buys at this point.
Remember, don't hold shitcoins forever, sell when in profit.
