When is it better to invest bitcoins?

Over the past five years alone, bitcoin has grown by more than 7,5%. $100, invested in the first cryptocurrency in 2016, could make almost $75 thousand in profit. Last April, when the price of bitcoin peaked at $ 64 thousand, the profit could be more than $ 105 thousand. Experts from BitMarket Network explained why, with the right approach, investments in bitcoin can replace pension savings.

 Informed choice

At the moment, Bitcoin is one of the most promising assets for investments over a long period of time. Long-term investors are attracted by the limited emission of cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin is becoming more and more popular due to the universal digitalization, increasing popularity of electronic payments and development of Internet services. In addition, bitcoin creators collaborate with large companies and receive financial support from them.

Bitcoin, in comparison with paper money, appeared recently, but it already shows great potential for use in the future. It is believed that the deflationary model, as well as the ever-increasing demand for bitcoin, will lead to an increase in its value in the future. So far, no other cryptocurrency has a real chance of gaining greater popularity and distribution.

 How to invest in Bitcoin

The best time for buying the first cryptocurrency is “crypto winter”.  It comes after bitcoin realizes its potential growth and then declines, so it is cheaper.  During this period, the value of the asset decreases to the minimum level.

If there is no large capital for investment, then you can buy the first cryptocurrency on a monthly basis for small amounts. If you have significant capital, you can buy bitcoin during adjustments, as it is best to enter the asset as quickly as possible.

It is best to invest in proven cryptocurrencies.  Experts suggested investing about half of the portfolio in Bitcoin, a little less in Ethereum, and distributing the remaining funds between smaller altcoins.

 Long-term storage of cryptocurrency

If the goal is investing with a perspective for several years, it’s better to withdraw bitcoins to a “cold” wallet.  Cold wallets exclude the possibility of theft of coins through the network.

Users of hot wallets should always have access to the Internet.  Such services are used if there is a need to make transactions frequently.  Cold wallets store cryptocurrency without an internet connection, so there is almost no risk of being hacked.

Experts have named several security rules to keep your bitcoins safe:

●     make an original complex password for your wallet.

●     do not store the password in a written form.

●     avoid online storage of your funds on the Internet.

●     choose wallets with two-factor authentication.
