I'm holding some funds over gox/btce and still hesitate to buy. Some say the value is now overpriced when compared to low volumes traded. Trading volume is as low as when  it was below $30. But, it just keeps going up...

I would like to hold it for a long period of time and buy some shares. What would be the advice of a more experienced: hold on to BTC or invest in some shares?

I guess if someone wants to buy cheap shares it's now or never. Just take a look what's happening with labcoin after a simple tiny pic of a chip was published...

Let the chips fall where they may.

While buy and hold has historically been a good strategy, I would encourage people to hold off if the price suddenly starts doubling every week. Even if the fundamentals are strong, you will get speculative over-shoot and the bubble will pop. This happened May of this year (2013), June 2011, and apparently November 2010.

It's a great bet, IMHO. For 1 BTC, the most you can lose is about $120, but what you can gain is many times that. Even with 50/50 odds, I'd sure take that bet!

If you didn't bought at below $100 I think you missed the real opportunity to buy BTC. But I think BTC will rise more than $150, so you can buy now.

With this attitude expect going bankrupt very soon in the future.

Don't be so pessimistic.
You can't go bankrupt, except if the price go to 0. Tongue
Oh yes you can.
I'm talking overall, you can't go bitcoin bankrupt, wth.

If the price of BTC will go to 0, you will be probably not able to spend your BTC, so effectively bankrupt
Go bankrupt because your btc is worth nothing.
That's imposible, unless everything you own is in bitcoin.

Depends how much % of your total wealth invested in BTC.
Btw I heard that you can expect some major rise in BTC value over next couple of weeks. Real weeks, not BFL weeks  Grin
Heard where?

Does the bitcoin price generally go up on increasing mining difficulty?  Huh

If yes, then I'm guessing the only way for bitcoin is up unless some political moves made by the government or banks blocks its way.

Hi,

It is generally thought that it is the other way round. A higher BTC price leads to higher hashrate.

Hashrate (difficulty) would drop if price stays at unprofitable levels and the expectations on future valuation are lowered. Not that we are anywhere near that yet because the new asics keep getting more power efficient.

The recent drop to 60-70 is when you should have bought. You can buy now too, even if it goes down again, it will be back up.

Yeah, should have, could have, didn't. Sucks, but oh well! Smiley
