I would like to hear your thoughts on John Mcafee.  Do you respect him and do you believe he has done more harm or good for the crypto world?

More harm than good. Especially because he has advertised many projects which in the end have turned out to be big losses for all the investors...
102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Mistake you should avoid when holding your Altcoins on: January 24, 2019, 10:30:13 PM
Early 2018 I had different altcoins via bounties, airdrops and small investment in ICOs. But the major mistake I made was waiting for bull run to come so I could sell and make large profit. But atlast the bull run never came. So I had to keep hodling till I got stocked in the Bear market.

I think you all should learn from my mistakes and never wait for bull run because nobody knows when the bull is coming because of the volatility of the market. Sell when you have decent profit and not waiting till you have a large profit. Thanks



I totally agree with you, because the same thing happened to me. I got stuck in many projects during this long-lasting bear market and I hope at least some of them will recover.

It was a very hard time, after a whole year of bearish market.

Personally, I do not think about things like getting to the moon now, but I would prefer that the market make a steady and sustainable growth, growing slowly without other bubbles. I think it would be much better for all the crypt market in a long term vision.

Si rumoreggia che il nuovo smartphone top di gamma Samsung S10 avrà un wallet crypto integrato di default


Da un lato good news, dall'altro... tiri fuori il cell e sanno che ha un wallet dentro... no good

Esatto.
Vedo principalmente due problemi:
1. Un wallet integrato nel cellulare, aumenta esponenzialmente la superficie di attacco
2. Direi che vi sono notevoli problemi di privacy. Una volta incrociato l'indirizzo bitcoin con l'IMEI... et voilà, il gioco è fatto.

No che avere un'app installata sul cellulare sia drammaticamente diverso, per carità, ma qui si rischia di più secondo me.
Buono giusto per tenerci i satoshi per le spese quotidiane.

Sono d'accordo. Una soluzione del genere secondo me aumenta i rischi per la sicurezza piuttosto che diminuirli. Però può essere comodo da tenere per spese al volo, soprattutto quando un domani sarà più facile fare queste spese direttamente in cripto.
105  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: bounty hunter paid USDT? on: January 20, 2019, 08:40:00 PM
do you agree if the bounty hunter is paid USDT?
the good or bad impact on investors and the development of the ICO project, give your reasons

I think it would be a fantastic idea if companies start to pay in USDT. Bounty Hunters will surely receive something valuable for their work (many times they just earn a useless token, which will never be listed) and they will do their tasks with much more commitment...

Who is really hopeful about the future of Bitcoin and why?

I am, because essentially the technology is improving and the community behind bitcoin is increasing. So, I always see an improvement comparing to the past.

Sooner or late, the market will start to be bullish again.
107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Why Bounty Hunters Hate KYC !!! on: January 20, 2019, 08:11:51 PM
What i know,  KYC means Know Your Customer ! Bounty hunters are there to Support ICO Project to spread the word about the project .. BUT as soon as the Project manager mention KYC then many  Hunter run away  ! Why? Is it  because  people  don't want review their identity  for security  reason  or people  are joining campaign  with bot software ..  

The most important reason I think it is the desire to not give away their data. Privacy it is an important need for many of them.

However, I think there are people who take part in bounties, especially in the social campaigns, with bots and multiple accounts.
108  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Revolution or a new start? on: January 20, 2019, 07:49:18 PM
Finally US company pay his business tax via BTC so, we can say it's a good start of BTC in future..

I think this company started new revolution so that other company too think of paying tax or payment via BTC. If companies started pay via BTC then other country definatly accept BTC too.

What you guys think of Overstock participate or i can say start revolution in BTC world.

I think is the first step which can help mass adoption of bitcoin. If a government accepts bitcoin as a form of payment to pay for taxes, in some ways it is endorsing its use.
109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATMs should target developing and third world countries on: January 20, 2019, 07:32:32 PM
Lot's of Bitcoin ATMs keep popping in the developed countries such as US, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong etc. But I have been thinking why don't the owner's target countries without much economic stability? Like Venezuela (btw they just got their first Bitcoin ATM). That would increase the adoption. Something like backpropagation. What do you think?

Yes, I think you're right. However, I believe that Bitcoin ATM manufacturers mainly install them in the developed countries for greater legal certainties that they found there rather than in the developing countries and also because, being companies, they have to make profits. In the richest countries, there are more probably more customers and more transactions that let them earn money.
110  Economy / Economics / Re: When will Apple accept bitcoins? on: January 20, 2019, 07:26:20 PM
When they really need to. But they'll fight it hard! Apple's business model is to lock everything down -- very closed indeed. This does not align with the goals of bitcoin, at least, how I perceive them.

tl;dr Apple = closed. BTC = open.

Yeah, Apple has a closed business model, but it doesn't matter. When other important companies will accept bitcoin, also Apple will do it  Wink
111  Local / Trading, analisi e speculazione / Re: exchange/broker completo on: January 19, 2019, 09:51:45 PM
Buondi, se possibile vorrei qualche consiglio su un broker che agista sia su crypto che su forex.
Da quando ho cominciato (un annetto fa) ho sempre usato kraken e mi trovo bene, ma ovviamente è limitato alle crypto.

Grazie

Se vuoi un broker, come gli innumerevoli che operano nel forex, ce ne sono pochi che offrono anche ora il servizio per le criptovalute, vosto che al momento l'attrattività del mercato delle criptovalute per il pubblico è scesa moltissimo. Per esempio tra i pochi lo fa in Italia IG markets:

https://www.ig.com/it/criptovaluta

Attenzione però che non acquisti veramente le cripto, ma derivati CFD (contract for difference) che scommettono sull'andamento del sottostante (per es. bitcoin), ma non acquisti veramente tale sottostante. Servono solo a scopo di trading, infatti non puoi spostare i CFD dal broker in un tuo wallet personale.

Se invece vuoi acquistare "fisicamente" le cripto (per esempio in ottica di investimento a lungo termine, per poi spostarteli in un tuo wallet personale), devi per forza usare Exchange come Kraken che hai nominato, ma non trattano anche forex, visto che sono due tipologie di prodotti diversi. Un Exchange però che lo permette, diciamo che permette anche gli scambi di valuta fiat contro valuta fiat (più che la classica operatività in leva dei broker Forex classici), è Coinsbank:

https://coinsbank.com/exchange

Se vuoi altre info chiedi pure.
112  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: why so many scam ico these days? on: January 19, 2019, 09:42:04 PM
are you aware of this? I entered and immersed 2 ICO. is it because btc is in the swamp? why so many these days?

This kind of investor sentiment (thinking that most ICOs are scam) is common now that the market is bearish.

This is why ICOs no longer have the success in raising funds they had in the past and even good projects find it very difficult to start...
113  Economy / Economics / Re: thinking of selling or investing more. on: January 19, 2019, 09:38:55 PM
At the moment I decided not to invest any more yet, but not even to sell.

The market is uncertain, so in my opinion, the best strategy is to wait.
114  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cryptopia exchange hacked on: January 19, 2019, 09:37:04 PM
There have been so many exchanges hacked in the past year, Cryptopia is just the last one.

I think that the market has a need for practices for greater security and greater guarantees to open up to mass adoption and to the common investor.
115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hope for hodlers on: January 17, 2019, 10:20:50 PM
At the end of 2017, before the advent of the bull market, we observed a decline in cryptocurrency. It is possible that now history will repeat and we will see the market in the green zone.

I'm still quite bearish at least for the first half of 2019, but I do believe too that it's just a matter of time for a recovery of the market.
116  Economy / Economics / Re: Can my economy be fulfilled in the future with Bitcoin? on: January 17, 2019, 10:18:37 PM
This is why crypto currency is a way good investment asset then fiat because the price is not manipulated and not stagnant. People and institutional investors could make high gains just doing short and long term trading so if there's a chance that bitcoin is in its lows better accumulate while you still can or probably my advice is wait for it to bottomed out.
Do you really think there is no manipulation going on in the market of cryptocurrencies? There are many great things we can say about some of the best coins in the market but we need to recognize the truth, there are some whales doing their best to manipulate the prices for their own benefit and since this market is difficult to regulate they have been doing whatever they want with the market for some time.
You are 70% right and 30% wrong and you will ask me why for sure. First of all, you were right as you said that bitcoin went 1500 USD and it was just last year. You were also right that now, it went below 10,000. But the thing is, we don't have any idea if you will buy today, it will go high again and you will receive a profit. There is still a 30% chance that it will go lower and 30% is a big percentage for us to be concerned. But if you are passionate enough to wait until you will gain profit and the market value will go high, they can actually invest money today.


This is true. But if you have a vision in the long-term for bitcoin, it doesn't matter if it goes still 30% lower, because, in the medium or long-term, you expect the price to be much higher than today.
117  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would Bitcoin be the same if Satoshi wasn't anonymous? on: January 17, 2019, 10:15:43 PM
How would the crypto arena be different if everyone knew who Satoshi was?

I think that being anonymous was the best choice that the founder (or the founders) of bitcoin did.

Being anonymous allows you not to be blackmailed, nor having conflicts of interest and, in this way, leaving the world a truly decentralized blockchain as it is Bitcoin.
118  Local / Alt-Currencies (Italiano) / Re: ETHEREUM: fork di gennaio 2019 on: January 17, 2019, 10:12:56 PM
Ma il fork è stato rimandato a data da destinarsi nel lungo periodo o c'è un piano per risolvere il bug quanto prima, per poi attuare il fork?
119  Economy / Economics / Re: In the future, will fiat currencies be necessary in the world? on: January 16, 2019, 09:37:36 PM
Basically, I believe that as long as governments exist, fiat currencies will always be there.

But this does not mean that alternative forms of exchange, like bitcoin, cannot also exist and flourish.
120  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do some people refuse to accept bitcoin? on: January 16, 2019, 09:34:46 PM
https://medium.com/datadriveninvestor/why-your-annoying-friend-wont-stop-ranting-about-bitcoin-9808a132480

The author of this article believes that putting a small amount of currency you have into BTC can help you protect your wealth.

He says, “If enough other people believe BTC is money and use it; it’s money even if it doesn’t follow the old rules our nobel prize winning economists have told you. The old rules are being taught a new lesson by the market.”

What do you think about it? If you or your friends don’t buy any bitcoin, what is the reason?


I think it's correct. Money is a medium of exchange that people freely accept to use to exchange value. As long as bitcoin will be accepted, it will always have a value.
