While Bitcoin is not truly anonymous, it can still provide a certain level of anonymity or pseudo-anonymity for users if they know how to cover their tracks and manage their digital wallets – a process that is expected to become more user-friendly with time. In contrast, this is impossible for PayPal users as they are required go through the burdensome process of filling out long forms to prove where the money came from and what it will be used for. This is particularly true for international users.

Since HODLING can get boring at times it’s nice to have a small amount set aside for trading that can be exciting. Even if it’s only $100, you think, that could have been $10K on that swing you just did. Every trade gets you a little more skilled and more comfortable with price actions.

Bitcoin is the oldest and most valuable cryptocurrency, but a crop of nimble competitors, including Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash, could lure investors away.

It was created as a way for users to take control of their money, instead of trusting the financial system. It also happens to be faster then the way banks transfer money. It was also used as a way to transact while anonymous. society needed an alternative to the regular financial system through which people could trade. When Satoshi Nakamoto invented Bitcoin peer-to-peer transaction system, society got the best alternative yet. Now, everyone can try his luck with day-trading, mining, etc. Important part is that today we have stabile digital currency that is used all over the world for transactions of all sorts. Most of the online traders use Bitcoin nowadays and even some of the biggest networks included Bitcoin as a valid method of payment

One of the great promises of this technology is anonymity: the transactions are recorded and made public, but they are linked only with an electronic address. So whatever you buy with your bitcoins, the purchase cannot be traced specifically to you.

For payment in Bitcoin, we could get a computer hacker to “destroy a business or a person’s life”, buy drugs, passports, cloned credit cards and counterfeit money or even order acid attacks, rape and murder. It is completely unregulated by banks and governments, making it attractive for criminals or those who want to keep their transactions secret.

The market doesn't care if you win or lose. Many traders make the mistake of chasing a poorly performing trade just because the crypto they’re trading has caused them to lose money before and it “owes them”. This superstitious thinking is all too common in the crypto ecosystem.

Investing is a marathon, and not a sprint, yet countless investors have the arrogance to believe they can time the market. A few get lucky and time the proper entry point, but the same investors often fail to time the appropriate exit point. The process works similarly in reverse, which hammers home the idea that you can be 200% wrong when you are constantly switching your portfolio positions.

Regulators could have the biggest impact on Bitcoin and Cryptos prices as multiple countries have either implemented some regulations or have discussed plans to limit them. If the regulations become too burdensome they could negatively impact the usage and therefore price of Cryptos.

You can invest in bitcoin, but not all your money. Bitcoins aren't a stable super-liquid currency. They are a volatile investment that will go up and/or down a lot over time. I would not recommend investing more than 30% of your savings in Bitcoin unless you have steel balls and you know exactly what are you doing. Most investors in Bitcoin are tech-savvy people and fintech professionals. If you’re not one of them, try something more accessible first (like gold or stocks).

Regulation can’t stop Bitcoin, but it can stop liquidity entering Bitcoin. If large scale institutional money is restricted from entering cryptocurrencies, then Bitcoin will eventually reach a peak and that will cause a selloff.

China officially banned cryptocurrency exchanges after announcing it was considering the move back in September. The last digital currency exchange in China was shut down as of November 1. With that final closure, the exchange of digital currencies in China officially became illegal. However, that's not to say that Chinese investors are not involved in the cryptocurrency space, only that they have been forced to look to other areas for their trading.

The crypto market is extremely volatile, which means price swings are normal, and if you get spooked easily, you will lose money. Panic selling is a common mistake beginners make, where they first get into a market without much research and then, when faced with a sudden drop, sell to ‘cut their losses’. The problem with this approach is that once you sell, you’ve actually lost money (you don’t lose until you sell), and while in some cases, cutting your losses does make sense, most coins will bounce back in days, if not hours, and then the same people, seeing a surge, buy back at higher prices, only to repeat the cycle. Buying high and selling low is a one-way ticket to going broke.

The technological side of cryptocurrencies are hard to get your head around, it is not that it is complicated, it is just so distant from what ordinary people think about technology, when i am out talking about cryptocurrencies, the thing most people find confusing is what happens to their coins once they send them. but i have also tried to explain how FIAT currencies functions and this have people even more confused, but we used it anyway. this leads me to conclude that the technical aspect is not important for people to get into the game.

No marketing strategy can beat one-on-one conversations. You can start evening bitcoin classes for beginners or monthly local meetups in your area. Not only will you meet people interested in learning more about bitcoin but you may also find new friends or potential business partners.

For true believers, the soaring rise rewarded a deep-seated faith. It’s always been kind of obvious to me that this technology is as profoundly revolutionary as the Internet was and is. But Bitcoin’s spike also represented the revolution’s next phase. Less prescient investors, fearing they’d miss the opportunity of a lifetime, had jumped into the currency, spurring a frenzy. it wouldn’t be crazy if the crypto bubble hit $10 trillion, and that’s 20 times more than what it is today.

Get to know your neighbours-what they do for a living, what their schedules might be like, and so on. Sometimes, you can remedy problems before they even start; for example, if they work nights, quiet mornings will be important for them. If they have young children, quiet evenings will be very important to them. Similarly, give them information that'll help them be more considerate of your lifestyle. If you do a lot of yard work, or if your teenage son plays the drums, let them know in advance and mention that if it's getting too loud, they shouldn't hesitate to let you know.

I love traveling, and this is something that I truly live for. I travel because I want to explore different amazing and extraordinary places, to meet fabulous people from all over the world, to be more aware of the cultures of others as well as of my own, to learn, to see, to explore.

It's illegal to treat people differently because of their race or culture. If it happens to you, remember - no one has the right to make you feel bad or abuse you for who you are. Our views and beliefs develop as we grow up. If you grow up within a family where some members are racist, or have friends who are racist, you may believe that racism is normal and acceptable.
