I think the best strategy for investing an any kind of crypto currency'business etc is investing  it during the price  is down.and selling it when the time comes  that it has a great value and  its price  is rising at the momment.
That was a great strategy that i really want to use now and then.it is simply quite amazing.

I just buy Bitcoin when the price drops and then I sell when the price rises. That is the easiest strategy of all.
I think the best way to earn a lot of income in investment is to buy low and sell high. In addition to that, if the price of an altcoin or bitcoin was going down it’s an opportunity to more because there is a chance the price of it will rapidly goes up and after that you could sell it and gain a high income. Lastly, be patient and be smart if you want to gain a lot of income in investing.

I've been telling basically the same for years

In reply to claims that Bitcoin adoption is "slowly but steadily increasing" between merchants. Nevertheless, having said that, I still keep to the opinion that the major cause for the lack of widescale and wildscale adoption is Bitcoin requirement to wait long minutes (sometimes even hours) before transaction confirmation. If Bitcoin would have been instant, that would help a lot in this aspect as well as help stabilize prices. Prices would be lower than now (for pretty simple reasons), but they would be more stable overall

I would gladly trade the high volatility for a lower and more stable price. If I had the choice between bitcoin being trading between $2500 and $3000 and being between $1750 and $1755 dollars, I would take the lower price range. The difference is huge. I would be poorer in dollar terms by quite a lot, but the wild price swings in that scenario makes bitcoin relatively useless for commerce and business. Under the second scenario, the bitcoins are worth a lot less, but trade in a small enough range that they could be useful for both commerce and business by allowing people to have a reliable expectation of what their bitcoin holdings are worth. That's what I crave most from btc

But the price stability is not possible without acceptance of Bitcoin by merchants and businesses

So it is sort of vicious circle, i.e. Bitcoin won't be stable until truly accepted by merchants at a larger scale, but merchants are not going to massively accept it until it becomes stable on its own. That's why instant and low fee transactions are so important since they could, at least, theoretically, help break this self-feeding loop of instability. Though this is not guaranteed either. Businesses will go for Bitcoin only if it turns to be more usable, convenient and handy than fiat, not necessarily better than the US dollar (this is a tough task) but at least better than local currencies that businesses are mostly transacting with

I definitely buy that t would help, but I don't know that it will ever be stable enough the grant large merchant adoption. Moves of a even 1% per mont would be too risky and hit margins. Retail especially is ultra competitive, and margins are so low that currency moves as big as a percent could sap all profitability. And I just never see Bitcoin being that stable.

I can't see how moves of 1% per month could be thought of as risky

Even major fiat monies like the US dollar or Euro move way stronger than that. In fact, oftentimes (well, sometimes), they move even more than that just within 24 hours. As I said elsewhere, in order to be universally accepted by merchants, Bitcoin needs 3 major things (apart from legal recognition, obviously). First, it needs instant, close to real time transactions. Second, it needs these transactions to be dirty cheap, so cheap that no one would be paying attention to them even when buying trivial things. And, third, Bitcoin needs to be more stable than local fiat currencies which merchants use in their trade. Bitcoin doesn't need to be more stable than the American dollar or Swiss frank, it just needs to be more stable than the majority of currencies out there (which are not very stable overall)

The formula is very simple, do not put your eggs on one basket. In order to minimize future loss and maximize profit its the most effective way. Specially if you have large investments, good example for it is in altcoin trading do not just invest all your capital on one coin instead buy different potential altcoins. Even investing in different exchange is a good habit too.

Diversification helps when the correlation between the assets you invest in is low. This is not true of altcoins. Altcoins more or less constitute one asset class. When there is a blood bath in the markets (like today), all your coins fall in value.

True, the people here think that "diversification" would mean to invest on different altcoins so when one goes down, there are others that might still be up. We're at a downward trend in bitcoin right now so all the coins have followed through. Diversification happens when your investments don't fall under the same category. So when you invest in X coin and Y coin, you still didn't diversify at all

I essentially agree with what you said

The point which I want to stress specifically is that it is of no particular advantage if you invest in more than 3-4 different classes of assets (which could be simplified to investing in just 3-4 different assets). If you try to go for more, you will be risking more simply because you won't be able to keep track of all your investments and thus you won't be able to follow the trends which these assets follow (read you will fail to jump the sinking ship in time). In this way, you will be effectively multiplying risks instead of profit opportunities (which is what diversification ultimately comes down to)

I'm not sure who applicable stock investing translates to here, but many financial experts don't consider you properly diversified until you have 8-15 different stocks, across different industries as well. I wouldn't count alts as appropriate diversification. Crypto as a whole would be only one industry. As Bitcoin goes, the others tend to follow.

The crypto world can become unpredictable sometimes, making our choices of investing into it, a very limited one. From scams to ponzis, there have been many losses from investors, yet making it very difficult to find a reliable investment.

But on the bright side, you could still invest into assets and commodities with your crypto like Gold and Silver. Then, if done right you could profit along the way with a good strategy.

As for me, I only decide to invest into gold (by exchanging BTC to Gold) and into some NXT and BURST assets.

What would be your investment strategy? Please share your tips, advice, or any good strategy you would use to safeguard your crypto investments.  Smiley

my best investment strategy with Bitcoin is to store Bitcoin in a secret place. Remember storing Bitcoin is also and investment which can give you a much higher return then any other conventional investment. So instead of wasting your Bitcoin for mobile recharge or grocery billing you better store it.

I have tried p2p lending as well but most of the time people used to scam. So I am currently active in Bitcoin trading and storing which I believe will take my life style to a different level in future.
I don't quite agree that it is considered wasting your bitcoin if you use it as a currency, because that is what it is primarily created for. What I do is allot a portiin of my bitcoins for holding and a portion also for spending. If everyone just holds their bitcoins andcthere is nothing leftcin circulation, it would defeat the purpose of its creation.

What it was created for and what it is used for has diverged. It was intended as a currency, but use and interest in bitcoin largely falls in the realm of speculative investing and profiting off price volatility. By volume, you could say that nobody seriously considers it as a currency. The business transactions it is legitimately used for are often to get around gambling restrictions placed on state-issued fiat currencies, or national anti-gambling laws. Most merchants who accept bitcoin only offer it to meet a niche demand, they do not hold or deal in bitcoins. They use third-party services to accept bitcoin on their behalf and instantly exchange it to fiat so they don't suffer any price volatility that plagues bitcoin

My best investment strategy is to buy bitcoin invest. I bought bitcoin at a price of 1000 $ then I sold it at a price of 3000 $ that is only part I sell. Some others I save. Because I am sure bitcoin prices will continue to rise. If i have money again i will buy another bitcoin. So later I have a lot of bitcoin. And my profits will be plenty too

to be honest i try to get some alt on rise invest and try to gain some additional coin i have done with some and i must loose with some but bottom line is that im on zero every time
may we gather bitcoin more and we can wait until the price we want new we can let go, and in the future we can gather again when it reaches the lowest price and we are also trying to get extra coins with so when it came to the point where we have to let go. in essence we are collecting as much as possible and will take it off bitcoin if the price is appropriate and we will benefit.

I always use 2 kinds of strategy in investing. First is if I want to invest in for a short term, I would rather do buy and sell. Since I'm not new in stocks, it is also applicable here in bitcoin. If I bought a Bitcoin in its lowest price then after a 3-5 days it went up and I see that I already earn 5-10% from it then I would probably sell it. Second is Long term investment, I would study the market that I'm engaging if it is really worth it to invest. You can know it by simply looking at the trend of it at the market and also do some background research. I tend not to put all my money in just one investment for the sake of not losing it all at the same time. I think distributing your money into different market is a strategic plan.

To invest in some reliable altcoins, that will bring profit in short time. Don't miss good ICO.
Not all ico is need to investment somehow you need to think before investing on one ico because not all ico are worth it they just like fooling other poeple to get money and they become scam in the end. I don't want to lose profit but the best is those coins that already in exchange website those altcoins that has potential to grow instantly.

My investment strategy is to diversify my investment portfolio into many different areas, I would invest some part of my bitcoins and altcoins into casino bankroll and it have earned me some profit over the years, trading is another aspect I am actively engaged with, I have been trading bitcoins into altcoins for holding purpose and sold them away when the price rises.

Nice strategy. Diversifying is the key rule towards minimizing your risks and becoming successful in any investment made. As ultimately, the majority of cryptocurrencies have decreased in value, it would be best if you diversify between real world assets like Gold and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin to reduce your risk of loss.

As for me, whenever I get the chance, I invest part of my Bitcoins into Gold, to protect myself from unexpected situations in the crypto market like what is happening nowadays. If prices keep declining for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, then it may cause many investors and individuals to panic sell and look for other ways to secure their investments.

Things aside, other investments like casino bankrolls are to be considered, but there are also risks that you would need to be aware of. But if you choose a casino with a high bankroll, then I believe that you shouldn't have any problem investing into it for the long term. Just my thoughts. Grin

I think the best investment strategy now is to choose when to buy Bitcoin when prices fall, hoard it and sell it when its price rises, you will have a huge profit margin that does not need to do anything heavy. Hard work. Besides, you can also invest in new, cheap and potential new virtual currencies, which is also a smart decision.

Do not depend only on bitcoins to make profits and if you want to multiply your profits then the best thing would be to invest in top 10 altcoins  and now its the right time to do as the price of bitcoins and even of altcoins has gone down so to make good profits in quick time altcoin is the key.
that is right, stick to single cryptocurrency will make you have a narrow field to make profit , expand it to altcoins where a lot of opportunity available and the volatile much more extreme  Cheesy , as long as you really understand what are you doing it could be a good investment.

and i agree that currently it is a golden time to buy several altcoin , it has shown a bounceback after few days ago all get dropped.

I do not have any strategy, my job is to earn bitcoin and then use it to convert to fiat for use, while for many people retain bitcoin to wait for high bitcoin price to sell it hoping to get profit high.

The best strategy is to convert 50% savings(BTC) into gold and hold remaining 50% in BTC for future and trading use. I am following this strategy, this minimizes the risk of loss.

This is my simple investment scheme on cryptos . I don't hold btc for a long time so those with potential growth with still low price altcoins mostly where I put my assets. It is more flexible but also volatile as it is today where altcoins get massacred day by day . But there is still hedge method which is very effective and easy to do. That once the market is on the bull run again I just go back .
For me I am more on holding it for long term because I am not really that good in monitoring the market actively.
I believe even though it's volatile and there's a lot of things that's happening like the FUD bitcoin will still recover and continue its success.
My strategy is simple. The half is for long term trading and the other is for my daily trade because in daily trade I am gaining profits easily and with the long term my coins are gaining massive income because the coin that I am holding is pumping but now the coin that I hold is dumping and hope it will recover soon.
