Title: Can you stop calling Bitcoin an investment?
Post by: Domithra on July 31, 2018, 03:18:06 AM
Bitcoin can never be disregarded as an investment because the volatility of Bitcoin has an intrinsic feature which makes its holders enjoy a profit margin whenever the price rises up. As such, people have developed the interest to invest in it, thus, buy more and hold for a certain period of time till the price reaches a certain good level, and sell for profit.

Bitcoin is too volatile that's true but this doesn't change anything. If someone buys bitcoin and thinks about selling it after 2 years, it means that he/she has made a long-term investment.

Yeah, a bit of a strange word choice... it's almost as if what you're describing is "can you stop saying bitcoin is not an investment?"

You're right. For those who want to know the investment then you have to spend time with them and you have money to get them to invest.

To look forward bitcoin couldn't be stop as one of the best investment in crypto world views. In fact, it is the all time high. At the moment no one can defeat bitcoin.

Bitcoin cannot be disregarded as investment. In fact, it is one of the main target of everyone who joined in this forum. This coin is not just good for short term but also for long term.

Bitcoin is an excellent coin for use as a currency, but it is also attractive as an investment asset. But I believe that Bitcoin is more suitable for long-term investment than for short-term. Long-term investment smooths the volatility of Bitcoin and volatility ceases to be a problem, because you do not experience because of insignificant ups or downs of the price, but just wait.

I think we people can never stop calling bitcoin as an investment, because normally bitcoin is use for investing and it is also an investment, even if we only hold bitcoin we can call it also as an investment due to its amazing and unstable price, so then I think people will always call it as an investment.

Another one why we can not stop calling bitcoin as investment because in business fund is the measure of why we called someone as an investor who give his share to a certain project and has a share to the profit of it. Same also with bitcoin but here is very risky because investors are always being dependent to the volatility.

No I think it's absolutely an investment.  You can put money in it and the price will go up or down over time, you hope that it goes up obviously haha.

I will call Bitcoin as an investment because from Bitcoin I can have a little savings for the future.
Always fluctuating values that make Bitcoin always provide losses and profits, depending on us quickly to respond.

for us bitcoin is also a good investment that we hold now, because its value goes up and down well, so I believe that in the next few years prices will increase compared to the prices we get today, because now the price is still being thrown away, so you can also get current price.
Title: Re: Can you stop calling Bitcoin an investment?
Post by: Elaine99M on September 11, 2018, 01:13:27 AM
We can't change the perception of the users and investors as they see the great potential of bitcoin to become more profitable in the future due to its higher price increase every year. And we can't blame them when they considered more on bitcoin as an investment or an asset.
Title: Re: Can you stop calling Bitcoin an investment?
Post by: Hongy on September 11, 2018, 01:35:00 AM
for us, we will not stop investing in bitcoin, because for us now is the right time we can hold bitcoin for a long time. so we will also get more profits.

I have done it mate. When the price is low, I also buy more and hold for long term investment. So,I think bitcoin is good for long term.

However, while bitcoin is not widely used as a payment system. It is used primarily as a means for investing, that is, as a speculative means of accumulating value. How can you call it then?
Title: Re: Can you stop calling Bitcoin an investment?
Post by: cryptothief on September 16, 2018, 09:30:45 PM
Although Bitcoin's primary purpose is not as an investment, that is undoubtedly what it has turned into. Right from when the first individual sold some instead of using it to buy a product/service. I guess because the ability to mine it was restricted to those with the know how, meant that anyone that wanted it previously had to buy it, in turn creating the demand. This demand has been growing ever since, even with the recent drop in price. I very much doubt that anyone involved at the beginning envisaged the growth that it has experienced, and genuinely thought/still think of it as a functional currency with which to buy and sell. It will find it's level eventually and settle down in currency exchanges like any other, but the volatility will have to be worked through first, and that could take years. Looking forward to a few years of growth and then spending it.

Bitcoin is more of an investment than the currency is was meant to be. A lot of people use the currency for investment purpose that is why people buy to HOLD for a future profit.

I thought, we would not stop investing in krypto, because krypto also gave me a pretty good salary, so I would also get more profits.

The function of bitcoin as payment has shifted as an investment. I don't think it's a problem, the important thing is that bitcoin can still provide benefits to its owners. Want to be called an asset or digital currency, I have no problem with that name.

at the moment I stop investing in bitcoin, the price of bitcoin is decreasing unstable, I will wait for the price of bitcoin to rise and when the price of bitcoin rises I will invest as much as I have capital, now do not ever invest

for us personally it also depends on your courage in investing in bitcoin because price fluctuations are increasing, and I myself still choose bitcoin for investment because bitcoin has the potential for the future, and you don't have to worry about negative news, and I'm sure that your bitcoin is good start again because it's still good to invest. so for you don't worry about the state of bitcoin in the future.

Yes, Its is unstoppable to call Bitcoin as an investment. Bitcoin is a promising investment, many people are interested in it yet they want to get profits. They can get the benefits from price gap.

Post by: Bolasodok86 on September 19, 2018, 09:30:10 AM
it is absolutely true that this is what many investors do, they buy a lot of bitcoin and hold it until prices rise higher, and that's where they get the big profits.

I don't think Bitcoin can ever be disregarded as an investment because that is the main motive why people purchase it. It has shown to give a lot of profit if purchased at a low price and sold for a higher one.

We all know that crypto is very risky for now most especially for bitcoin which is dropping too high but whatever happens we can still call bitcoin as an investment because that's the main reason why bitcoin exist.

Yes I think for the profesional trader , bitcoin is more profitable for short. But I personally prefer bitcoin for long term investment. Because I dont have alot of time.

can't and maybe can't, because bitcoin is very profitable and still believed to date, the price is often unstable giving its own benefits to the holder .

bitcoin will never be able to change anything, the only thing that changes is the price, which is up and down, so that a lot of investment, short and long term ... if you buy and hold it for 3 years then the short-term investor can't call investor ..

but more profitable this long-term investment is more profitable than the short term.

I think people will never be able to stop calling bitcoin an investment because bitcoin is a very good coin to use as an investment because of its extraordinary price, although not always stable. then I think people will not be able to stop calling it bitcoin as an investment.

Yes i can do it because bitcoin will be currency If a recent interview from a Duke professor is something to go by, the U.S. national fiat currency could soon be replaced by a national cryptocurrency. Per a report published by The Chronicle, dated September 19, 2018, Duke Fuqua School of Business’ professor, Campbell Harvey, not only believes that the United States should create a national cryptocurrency, but concludes that paper-based currency’s demise is pretty much inevitable.

No Sense in Using Paper for Currencies
In an interview with CBS News, Harvey shared his thoughts on the idea of a national cryptocurrency, saying that it would resolve a majority of the problems faced by the paper-based currency – including tax evasion, black-market sales, and replacing worn banknotes to crimes like counterfeiting.

Unpredictable fluctuations in currency rates often jeopardize whole counties financially, as is the case with Venezuela, Turkey, and more recently, Argentina.

bitcoin has been proven to provide many benefits if it is bought cheaply and sold for a higher price.
