Topic: Methods of growing your Bitcoin? - page 223. (Read 453559 times)

Haven't these sites been largely discredited as ponsi schemes?  Do these sites publish any verification that they are providing provable hash rates to the block chain?

"Give me $100 and in 6 months, I'll give you $100.16, then pure profit" sounds kinda fishy.

You can always invest with Bitcoin. Over 300 days running investment fund and keep going strong. Over $17mil payout so far.

well on my jump into here not to p/o anyone only imho if you think as your bet that LTC will be able to do these 2 things into the future

1) survive as an alternative to bitcoin at the traditional say 0.006 or so (my cut off point) to BTC thus if BTC goes to 1000 usd at worse LTC is 6 bucks...but the coin
and all pow scrypt coins will have to survive as the bet imho (remember no real commitment on any new scrypt pow asic miners now ...eventually if pow scrypt coins
like LTC/dodge etc are to survive (not just LTC) then this will have to be addressed as old equip goes off the other end as electricity/difficulty comes into play in
the future (again imho just saying)

if you accept 1) as being likely or true

2) Will the halving have the effect of at least leveling off the LTC price to say 6 bucks from its previous 3 bucks ..due to such (perception wise if no other reason) thus
again making this coin keep the at least 0.006 LTC to BTC yoshi to mario's historical connection to BTC?

IF so and again I say IF so...then buying coin is wise indeed ..again only what you can afford.....

if you think alts are eventually gonna go away and after the pump because of the halving LTC and maybe other pow alts are gonna dump down to 1.40 say for LTC as an
exmple again ..then run away from all this

people with miners (titan(s)) etc like me ..have other considerations .ie we are already on the sled making good time down the hill..as to great finish or spectacular wipe out
I've no clue ..but we paid for the sleds so we probably kinda/sorta have to ride them (ie mine)

as to others just looking at this from a $$$ to LTC point of view...well......that involves the decision on if you want to buy your own sled and take your chances

anyway ..the above is what keeps me up at night? and/or my usual should I sell/hold/sell some/sell none week of bi-polar miner angst!

so far anyway mining  like hell and hoping that 1) and 2) above is how it seems (yeah how likely is that gonna be the case considering the source ie me )

and to think I was bored and gonna put up the old game server again before spring  of 2013 ...before I found out about Bitcoin ...sheesh

I miss the innocent boredom of 2012! Too much frigging crypto drama!

Why would you suggest all new users to buy as many coins as they want? Would you suggest the same to your brother? I would never suggest that because even when you believe strongly in the future of bitcoins, its still not a secured future. On top we know that buying bitcoins was a bad decision in the last months. So i dont see why you arent more cautious with that suggestion.

Pumping bitcoins, fine, but i dont see where you get the confidence from that the price wont drop considerably anymore.

The BTC/LTC exchange rate has almost tripled during the past few weeks. The price of LTC has increased from BTC0.005 (mid-May) to BTC0.013 as of now. I am not a strong advocate of Shitcoins, but in this case, the people who had made the investment could have made 2x returns in a matter of 10-15 days.

current thoughts


   mining my titan(s) (now in the black all btc and ltc equip with elec from oct 2013 to july 1st as of this last week..in the black ON PAPER ANYWAY HOLDING) but still a milestone

   taking my held LTC since mining up to July 1st ..decide when to DUMP LTC TO BTC (www.shapeshift.io is my friend)

   with such this is either 1) a pump or 2) a pump up and stays there due to halving in 60 some days) and LTC thrives or 3) that which we cannot mention about LTC and price (shudder)

   I will be over the 'magic number' of 100 BTC maybe as many as 125 BTC ...this of course is COUNTING my previous BTC hoard in that figure should this 'work out' (again ?)

   After that whatever I end up further mining from july 1st to jan 1st  with the 'tinkertoy titan(s)' should they hold together that long is another decision

    then decide at the end of the year if/when/what to hold/sell/partial sell or whatever that LTC

    hey 'paranoia' its not just a lifestyle

   (if it all goes tulips at least with 100 BTC I can proclaim "you think you we're a kool aid drinker I had 100 BTC I was a beast of an crypto kool aid drinking fool... got you beat!' ...in my nursing home stories on BTC and ALTS!....waving or arms .....wild hair...ratty bathrobe open flashing the female nursing home staff it will be epic! I will be on a roll!  lol

   good to have goals

the problem is that many don't want to simply buy and hold, they want to get those coins for free, or by investing their time only, people are poor nowaday, and also they are not that good at trading

this is why you see plenty of newbie asking how to get free bitcoin how to double their stash, and all this kind of stupid question...

the best thing to do right now, is finding a job(any job, especially online) that pay you in bitcoin, and hold those coins, spend only what you really need the rest in the cold storage

Agree with you, if we invest what we can't afford to lose, when we lose it, we will fall into despair and we won't try to invest in other sites. I never invest all of my bitcoin, i use only half of my bitcoin to invest, so when it become scam, i won't lose all of mine, just half.

well, you have to start from somewhere. like back when i didn't know about trading i thought that it is extremely hard to figure out the market and profit, but little by little i am improving myself and trying to get better at it.

where do you sell these mined coins?
since they are new, they are not in any exchanger to be able to exchange them to BTC.

Invest in DPOS coins..... stake.. sell the stake, then sell the rest... PROFIT.

It's maybe okay and a fast way to double your bitcoin. But in other way, there are many senior members called it scam. Also scrypt.cc isn't good in customer service.

Scrypt.cc cloud mining is a good one. They mine different alt-coins and trade them then pay you in BTC. Right now it will take you about 2 months to double you coins in it.

There is a lot of talk about scrypt. So far it seems good, I am not sure if its a ponzi or not but I benefited from them and they seem to be running for a long time.

cloudmining is wrong place to invest, some of cloudmining use ponzi scheme to invest, that why you can lose your money
bitcoin cloud service the biggest cloudmining try to show evidence that they possessed the mining hardware, but eventually he run and you lose your money

All newer users should be acquiring as many coins as they can at these lower prices (nearing end of bear market) and making sure you're set up nicely for another future rally. Most don't know how to trade so the best method is to take available fiat, get your coins and hold. Or, earn coins by offering services to earn them from others around here. Sig campaigns are pretty good, might as well get paid to post here if you're going to do so anyway.

I've been using cloudminers lately, but you can never trust them 100% with your btc, last time I had 0.4 btc invested in a site called Lunamine and it just all of a sudden went down and everyone lost their coins.

Well experienced is a part in a market world. Its just that Im confused of what will I do in my coins. That's why rather than to be confused I seek a guide from most experienced users.

I was often so. I do not need the money but when I get bitcoin I always exchange it directly into money. true what you say, a little patience and wait for prices to rise, and it now happens I am quite sorry to have to sell when the price is $220

Just got some tip from a market expert in our bitcoin group in facebook. Even with the price of bitcoin going up don't be greed to sell it out in our currency. Much better to keep it for now and patiently wait for a big break. Plus if you don't need money for now why cashouting btc quickly. Well looks like Im going keep btc for now rather than spending.
