get silver instead

personally i have about 5% in silver and 95% in bitcoin.

yeah, not a balanced portfolio, but who cares, bitcoin all the way.

Though I'm considering buying another 20 oz of silver soon.

I think it is better to get the gold and the bitcoin. Gold is easier to store as the volume is smaller than silver.

well that depends on how much money you have, if you have very large amounts of money, than silver is too cheap, but most people don't have so much money that that would be a problem

and in times of financial trouble, silver will increase in value more than gold.

Silver is also probably more undervalued than gold right now, so my advice is still silver.

I guess, I would have gone 60/40 on gold.

I would invest more in gold then bitcoin too.
This because i need security with investments, so far Bitcoin is not providing me real security.

That depends on you I do not invest in gold but only in Bitcoin so I do not know what to say about gold. I can only say that it would be a bad thing if you would invest in Bitcoin.

Yeah gold is better than silver.. source of gold are decreasing and i think the price will increase more in the future..
And if you have 50/50 gold and bitcoin those investment is great and it will more valuable in the future..

50/50 crypto and PMs sounds reasonable to me. I would say investing the same amount in both would be a good idea, but if you have lots of savings, you might want some less aggressive investments too, like stocks or other commodities or property.

Don't forget silver by the way, while the silver:gold price ratio is so high, Silver is worth investing in.

I diversify my cryto currency investment. I mine the Etheruem and convert most ethereum into Bitcoin.

Yes do that since you are not putting all your investment into only one thing to depend on.
That is called getting diversified and that is what many bank people tell you to do so you can make more on your investments.

Yes, you have to go, as there is no bad in investing in both of these, both will benefit you, with gold you will have a long term trade and with bitcoin you will have a short term and long term both, but if you are expert in trade.

Yeah best thing to do go for both products and try to diversify your investments as nothing is guaranteed and anything is possible with your investments.

at the moment i have 30 btc now i could sell in the highs and buy gold leaving me with 15 btc.

im starting to think btc wont survive long due being entirely digital the thing could be abandoned or worse internet might go down what you guys think i would look pretty stupid buying something you cant see or hold im torn to shreds right now.

ive listened to max keiser and proffs that bitcoin could be worth tens of thousends i think its the most sensible thing to do "dont put eggs in one basket" on all...

it draws a fine line... i.e. all that electricity to "mine" bitcoins pushing hardware to the max and with exchanges like crypsty and cexio mucking me around i just dont see the future help me realise this what should i do?

Well because i like bitcoin more, i would choose bitcoin, main reason why, is that gold is pretty old now, and it's price last uears haven't change much, while look at price of bitcoin, it have huge potential so i would go 80% with bitcoin and only 20% gold

It is expected that BTC will rise significantly this year with the halving coming up, keep the BTC.

That is right. We will also have the block size increase in the next few weeks using the SegWit according to the forum comments.

When it comes to investment I have a safe setup:
25% goes into savings
25% goes into risky investments like bitcoin
50% goes to less risky investments like bonds or obligations from big companies and governements.

Good portfolio spread you have there. My portfolio looks like : 70% saving in my bank account and 30% in Bitcoin. If possible I would like to push my Bitcoin holdings from 30% to 40% this year. I also used to have stocks but I sold and have not bought any back as the stock prices are very high at the moment.

I will put the initial ratio to be 50:50. But I believe that the bitcoin price will be much higher, so it might end up with 99:01.

That is the right decision to make to diversify your investments in both the products, as both have potential to give us best returns on our investments.

Its one of the best things you can do because the fact is that you can than make profit on both.
I would pick gold for a long term and bitcoin for a short term due to the halving.

with gold you're always making small profits if you compare it to bitcoin. bitcoin has a lot potential growth where the price may even reach a value of a few thousand per coin. with gold the profits are in the range of 10-50% where bitcoin can give you a minimum of 200-300% in the coming years.

Yeah with bitcoin you can get a much bigger gain than gold but the potential too loose your investment is more than in gold.

it depends. if you're a calm person with enough patience and not panic when there is a sell off, then you'll be just fine if you hold your coins for the long term. you don't lose anything until you sell your coins.

this personality is nessasary for anybody who wants to make and investment, doesn't matter what it is you should set some rules for yourself about when to buy and how much loss is acceptable for you before you are forced to sell and how much profit before you sell.

That is a good point to set some limit to yourself when doing trading,well investor can always go 50/50 its a safe way when trading in case you lost on one side the other side profit.
