What is your best investment ever?

avatar
(Edited)

Mine was a shitcoin called DeepOnion. Now, I didn't invest actual money into this.

But I did invest some time. You see, they were doing a bitcointalk signature campaign when they first launched. What this means, is that me and whoever else participated, got paid in deeponion coins, to make forum posts on bitcointalk, using our profile's signature as an ad for their project.

I was doing exactly 10 forum posts a day (the max allowed) which took me about 30-40 minutes. At some point they got listed on Yobit and after about a month a wild pump appeared and I sold all my airdropped coins, at around 40k sats each if memory serves me right:

How much did I gett? 1.2 BTC! Which I still hodl. Not bad right? :)

So, that was my best investment ever. What's yours?

That's pretty nice!
My best one has to be the Uniswap airdrop. I had used Uniswap exactly once in my entire life and that was to convert LCR I had earned on Publish0x worth ~10$ to ETH. Well, that transaction made me eligible for the Uniswap UNI airdop which earned me 1800$...

Mine were all shit coins too when Cryptopia was a thing, I used to do really well there but I never held coins until I was forced to with the hack. I signed up for the liquidation claim but I have a feeling I'll get hardly anything though, at the time the coins were worth a lot. There isn't detail how that's considered!

Best trade though was Triangles and Embers, others I can't remember the name... Never heard of this coin though!

Wow 1.2 btc, that's MASSIVE

You know, no investment is totally a waste, who would have thought that it would go through as such. Wish I was there to kick in, after all I love creating contents.

It's a crazy investment, when you practically didn't take money out of your pocket and you had such a benefit! I wouldn't sell those Bitcoin either. I think it's your luck.
I'm sorry I can't answer your question, I only invested in real estate, I bought land that still doesn't have the value I expect. Nothing special.

To be honest I wasn't or haven't been an investor except that I bought hive. But then my best Investment is easily Leo. Bought at 4 or 5 cent and here we are. another thing is contributing Leo to the Spinvest pool. It was lucrative despite the hack.

I bought 200 or 300 Leo at 0.5 Hive each.
That is properly my best investment :D

It is somehow. The english translation for our currency is lion, lion...leo, it's somehow there, and the current price of LEO is about 1 RON(lion) of ours.

You can find out even more now, I just wrote a post detailing some prices in here and their value in LEO. One LEO being valued at 1 RON(LEU) currently, it wasn't even too hard.

My best investment was in ZCash before the HF to BTCP. I've put some good amount into it and sold it on the right time for me, it went from 4 $ a coin to some couple of hundreds on both. This tip I've got from a guy in here.

That was my most lucky shot and was by far the most rewarding! But the crypto world is not always gold, as I had some funds also on cryptopia :)

I haven't invested much in space excesteem and now hive.
My best investment was buying a startepack for steemmonsters/splinterlands.
Most of my steem worth was made from it, although it's price fell by about 4 times, but it was worth it. .

i did an ICO for posw(proof of stake wallet - now called XSN)

i put in .007 $btc and then it rocketed up to about 20k sats - i missed selling the top for 1.2 $btc because i'm a carpenter not a trader

but i did get out with .3 %btc - still better than the .007 i started with

then i got some free $XSN later for a twitter campaign and sold on cryptopia(before the hack) for $250

and it's been 3 years of dogshit since then LOL

My best investment was hopefully my son, He is the pension plan. If you were looking for a crypto then, so far I would have to say LEO and Leominers. I have been buying some since the start. Although I only have a 1000 or so I think I have made out like a bandit, especially since I have only been using some earning from Hive.

Pension plan? LOL

Don't worry, I bet 1000 leo will be a big deal by this time next year!

I think my best investment has been to reinvest a part of what I earn in order to get more.

Next year, I intend to be more audacious to go further.

We bought a modest house (1974) and never moved. That was our best investment. Property values rose around us, way beyond the rise in cost of living.

So if you sold today, how much % profit would you have ? :D

Going by current sale prices in our neighborhood, about 1700%.
But, a house is only worth what you can sell it for. So right now, it's just a home. Who knows what will happen to property values :)

1.2 BTC in current price is way too good - unfortunately, I have never got any success for any of my investment. Hopefully, my current investment in hive will bring in some values.

Isn't it cool that your shit coin investment turned out to add a little bit of value? 1.2 bitcoin is something compared to hodling a million shitcoins.

Why don't things happen to me like you do?

I also think the best investment we can make or I can make is time to wait for something to come up or to spend time reading and researching.

So far, I have no investment which has yielded anything tangible. Aside from investing my time by going to school and earning an Accounting and finance degree. Nothing has really worked out aside from that

As an investment, Bitcoin. I had some, then went all in almost at the bottom ($4000) during the march covid dip.

I have done even better in ETH, but I cheated using leverage. I've made massive leverage longs on eth and for now they have all paid off.

I just opened a new one this morning at $557.

I witnessed a pump and dump in my exodus wallet once. I think it was gnosis? I put about $100 in and 10 minutes later I saw it was $800. I traded for bitcoin and fast as I could but it was already at $600.

If hive goes back to 25 cents it'll be my best investment by far because between post rewards and curation rewards, the returns have been consistently awesome.

Best.., there truly hasn't been one yet in 3 years. I sold a load of XRP yesterday at almost double what I paid, does that count?

If it's crypto investment, I think the old blockchain gave me a good investment not specifically for money but for the intel I got from exposing myself on what cryptocurrency can do for the world.

Then it snowballed to my Hive account after I moved, I spent a lot of time building on this blockchain from people and the money accumulated and it helped me understand more about the tech and community I'm investing into. I did invest in other crypto but Hive has been the only coin I never sold.


For material investments:

Probably a graphics tablet that I still use today for illustrations. That gadget was bought after weeks of being cheap, hard labor, and sleepless nights trying to meet quotas on a telemarketing agency to have bonus pay. It helped me learn some stuff I couldn't do the same way you can't use Zoom app if you don't have a camera. Just helped me get more freelance work and I ended up putting that money on this blockchain.

1.2 BTC is CRAZY! I wish I was that lucky :( My best investment was buying 10 WAVES at $1 and now it goes around $8.5 and so far that's the best investment I've ever made!

Nice hodl man, having over 1 BTC can be life changing.

My best altcoin gain was from Dash, known as Darkcoin at the time. It rebranded after I bought it under $10.. sold half for $30 and the other half for $300

That was the best gain I have ever made, but hoping to break that record with Hive one day :)
