Topic: What would you do with 25 bitcoins? (Read 2974 times)
I'll save them for a while till they grow up. Then donate them to an animal rights charity
I would keep half and for the other one I would buy some land and plant fruits.
With 25 BTC, I'll keep it until exhange rate of 1 BTC to 1 USD is 1:50000 
All-in on black
And repeat until you or betting site is broke. It is free afterall
That would basically leave you with nothing

I would save 15 of them, for some years.
Would use another 5 to give my parents a skiing holiday.
The last 5 i would use for day trading.

That's cool. Your parents looked out for you for years, it's nice to see them have it returned! I bet they would appreciate it.

You can, but it doesn't do so well...I think I received .00009 or so.
I'm going to start hitting up the faucets again...just like water, a little trickle helps I had stopped using faucets because I felt it was for the guys just getting started with bitcoin, and I didn't want to be a cause of depletion for them.
I also started requesting altcoins in the giveaway threads, but after more reflection on that today, I don't think I will continue that, because if I don't really support the coin fully, I'd feel like a "cheat", know what I mean? I don't think it's fair to the givers, or to other receivers. Thanks
Seems interesting, Bitcoiner hauling water because his well is broken ? Seems we are mainstream already
Yeah, I'm small time, wish I had money to invest. Unfortunately everything goes to getting more self sufficient, or repairing broken things. Just had to replace a heater core and radiator, took the last of my meager BTC...then the well went dry, seems the original owners skimped and didn't locate the well in the best spot. Now I haul water about 1/4 mile and fill a tank because the oney just isn't there to drill a new 700 ft well
but the dream of someday having water close keeps me going because at almost 50 yrs old, it will get harder each day.
I'm glad to see BTC becoming more mainstream, but some are so hard to convince
Mind if I put your well fund in my signature?

I'd have a new well drilled. I'm so tired of hauling water, but it looks like there is no end in sight to it.

I would definitely invest it in something. I would also block all gambling sites before I think of anything stupid .

I'd divide them into 6 equal parts and add them to the 6 paper wallets with my other hoarded coins, one wallet for each of my nieces and nephews in case I drop dead before I need to sell any satoshis in my old age.
But it depends you could also loss 25 of yours... its gambling .. but yes if you could do that, then you'll be gambling KING 
I got up to 65 BTC from 0.1 BTC before, when the total value was something like £9,500. Withdrew £300 to my bank, spend £500 on random Bitcoin services, and spent £200 giving away Steam games. Then I gambled the rest and lost it, it's not a good feeling... But life goes on.

Bet it all.
In bitcoinsports.eu!! ;p I see you are taking brand promotion really seriously. Some like to gamble, make 1.000 BTC out of 25 BTC would be real change in my live, and when initial bankrol is free, you can just freerolling
To be honest, I would pay off my student loans or give my parents the gift of a new house in a safe community.
is $20k USD enough to buy your parents a new house where you live?
It depends. Where I live (the middle of nowhere), housing can be really cheap, especially if you know where to look. Also, given that my mother is gradually losing her sight, a one-storey home would probably be best. Most of those tend to be small modular homes or mobile homes but some of them are very pretty and seem to suit a retired couple perfectly. I know.. it doesn't seem much but I just want my parents to be happy
I would use it to invest more once (or if) the price drops. Would definately keep them, because there are great things to come for bitcoin!

I'd use it to buy up the remaining namecoins!
I would publish a transaction showing the public key that would allow me to spend that amount, along with a Merkle tree of other transactions, wrapped in a low value double-sha256 hash.
sell 10 to finally have a better life
5 times 1 BTC for Donations (a good cause)
10 will stay in the wallet (let's see what happens)

sell 10 BTC, keep the rest so I can retire early
I would post in this thread and tell everyone I don't have 25 BTC.
This
I think I'd do the same thing as most people on here, I'd save it because of course we expect the value to rise over time.
Using it to buy more coins
how can you buy more coins with Bitcoins?
it's like trading apples for apples
Maybe buy some more alternative coins ?
You know, there are gamblers exchanging Bitcoins for alternative coins
Keep them for a long time

with 25 bitcoins I would jump up and down yelling "fuck yeah, I'm wealthy"
if someone gives me another 25btc to a group that i already own, i don't see how this will affect me. i am sure on buying a parcel in the near future, then start to build a own house.
Get a house somewhere there's no one comes and establish my won farm and all.... cutting my connections with this world... wanna live in peace...
I know it would be difficult ... but worth a try..:p

Touché
I'm surprised so few want to invest in the future of BTC.
Do you mean donating to Bitcoin Foundation ?
Not specifically. I'm saying if you get that much free coin you should give back SOMEHOW. Ensuring the growth of bitcoin is an investment just like any other.

I'd hold and wait for a while, until the day i can buy a nice, big boat/ship with them in btc!
(Then I'd sail the world around, to bad that is just a dream at the moment!)
(Then I'd sail the world around, to bad that is just a dream at the moment!)
The only option would be save 25 bitcoins for later when price hits 1 mil USD and retire
hold and wait
I would leave 10 in cold storage, cash out 5 for other investments, use 5 to start a BTC business and distribute 5 to new members with their own ideas.
Buy something that isn't taxed, donate the rest to all the free services that have helped over my time bitcoining.
I would do with free 25 bitcoins what I do when I get some money: spend it on new comp and other stuff. Would preffer 50 bitcoins, I would buy new car
use the other (one) to buy a round of beers w. friends.
How many friends do you have? 1200?
Donate everything
Hard to believe
I would transfer it to cold storage for my childrens

STORE IT SAFELY FOREVER!
that's what i'd do...
Perhaps invest part of it in just-dice.

Hold 20, invest with 4 btc. Then use the other amount to buy a round of beers w. friends.
Multiply it with CGB
I would open a savings account with Barkley's 3.2% interest
i would do the same if i had 0.25 BTC.. or 0.0025
Hoard like 10 BTC and spend the 15 BTC for cool stuff.
I guess im not much original...

I'll spend 5 btc for whatever i like, and save the rest for later 
if i'm to be honest, i'd just.. donate 1, and then save the rest. my main goal with BTC is not to be super wealthy, bu to just never have to worry about money again. i'd like to go backpacking through southeast asia/europe/central and south america.. to be free, without worries.. that'd be the life.
Ah, we have the same dreams you and I! 
Give some to squall. Get a bike. Put rest towards bringing world peace.
I'm in the market for a sailboat, I'd probably buy a used trailer-sailer. (used MacGregor 26M).
That's what I'd do with "free" 25btc!

If someone just handed you 25BTC for no freaking reason whatsoever, what would you do with it?
Save 25 BTC to secure location and check back bitcointalk in 5 years whats going on
One does not simply leave and come back in 5 years.
Haha, exactly.
I would stay on bitcointalk, but hide the 25 BTC for 5 years

Buy my son a puppy for xmas.
Why would you buy a dog, there are dogs everywhere, I've had quite a few, still have one, never paid for dogs...
Keep 20BTC and use the rest for my faucet and investment stuff.
Buy food
i'd buy a ton of fibre optic cable and run it all through my small town. then i would petition city councel to buy a 10 gbps uplink, and subsidize internet: everyone who wanted internet would pay $5/mo + hookup fee(for routers etc.)
people in my town would have more money to spend on other things instead of ridiculous mobile data fee's and phone/cable company shitty 120 dollar a month internet, and more people would have access to the internet, and maybe use it to better themselves / get out of this shithole town.

Become the ruler of a small nation.
Hide it
Exactly as the topic is. If someone just handed you 25BTC for no freaking reason whatsoever, what would you do with it?
I'd buy a reliable car. Because mines a deathtrap.
buy a new suit, since mines like 8 years old.
Buy my son a puppy for xmas.
What would you do?
