101  Economy / Speculation / Re: Potential for future growth of electronic money in 2019 on: October 14, 2018, 03:25:34 AM
If 2018 is the year a difficulting for the cryptocurrency, investors are expecting a growth in the year 2019. When large institutional investments start to increase Bitcoin prices, the popularity of search terms like "Bitcoin" on online sites will start to increase, this again leads to a new wave in the electronic money community. More and more central banks are researching the use of electronic money, they want to understand how electronic money and Blockchain technology can affect their countriesThese are the reasons why electronic money will become more popular in 2019. And you, What do you think about the future growth potential of electronic money?

I'm optimistic of the growth of cryptocurrencies in the years to come. Even when internet is just starting, many criticized it that it wouldn't make a difference to our lived but now, almost all our transactions need internet connection. I believe it would be the same in the future wherein we would need cryptocurrencies for our transactions not only as payment option but to use it in other things that have value by using smart contracts.
102  Economy / Economics / Re: Starbucks drops hint at plans to accept Bitcoin on: October 14, 2018, 03:14:21 AM
This needs to gain more traction. If starbucks starts accepting bitcoin it would be monumentally favorable for both.

Starbucks in our local cities are always already full. Can you imagine how much more people would go and fill up the starbucks stores when news like this comes out? I imagine the publicity would be really good for starbucks and at the same time would help prove bitcoin and crypto's use case.

This would be good publicity for bitcoin seeing that more companies are adopting it as payment option. If this would become true then the bitcoin community would go bigger and more companies would consider adopting it. However, they should be able to plan it out carefully due to the volatility of the price.

They may immediately convert it to fiat after receiving so that they wouldn't be affected by the rapid price movements. It would be an additional expense for them though if they would be converting it every time.
103  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Can Be More Efficient Than Bank Transactions on: October 13, 2018, 12:55:47 PM
Bitcoin seems to be more efficient than bank transactions at the moment. If you ask why, sending Bitcoin from one end of the world to the other end is less than a fraction of the money.

But it depends on the volume of the transaction though because there are times when the transaction fee becomes expensive especially during the times when the price is going up and more people are transacting and since they want to send their coins as fast as possible, they would be willing to pay out a higher fee compared to others causing the price to go up as more people would be willing to pay a higher transaction fee for a faster transaction.

The advantage of bitcoin over bank transactions is that there is no middle man which is the bank so you are assured that when the other party sends you something, it will reach you as soon as possible when it's included in the block.
104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: which part of bounty could be more profitable on: October 12, 2018, 01:19:51 PM
I think translation is the most profitable bounty campaign, but i do not know the process of doing it. signature is also good but for the higher rank member i.e hero, legendary and senior member. also in signature you can participate only one project at a time. 

It depends on the bounty itself how much is their allocation per type of bounty. You can participate in multiple social media campaigns, translation and other campaigns but you can only have one signature so you should choose carefully the signature campaign that you will join. I think that translation is more profitable including the moderation of it because only one person can do it whereas in other campaigns, multiple people do it in which case they would divide the bounty.
105  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Forkdelta safe platform for trading??? on: October 12, 2018, 12:25:48 AM
Is it safe to import MEW account with Forkdelta and trade?Huh i am new to forkdelta need help and suggestion?? thank you in advance.
I think it's safe to use mostly people who always use to trade altcoins because it's easy to use but we need to be careful don't stay your MEW account always click forget so you can avoid a hacking or steal your account.

One thing I always do when I am using a decentralized exchange is that I use a particular wallet wherein the only coin place there is the coin I want to exchange because if I use my main wallet and hacked then I am doomed. I may spend more fee in sending it to that wallet first but at least I am just avoiding all of my coins getting hacked. It is safe to trade in forkdelta but always check the URL if it is the right site because there are so many phishing sites especially if you search it in google first.
106  Economy / Economics / Re: CryptoCurrencies around the GLOBE on: October 11, 2018, 12:38:04 PM
What do you think about the popularity of Cryptocurrencies around the world, do you think many people now are aware of this Technology currencies?, how much percentage would you think and how can we expose and spread this? Smiley Smiley

Cryptocurrencies are slowly getting popular although when someone who knows nothing about it, they will have a negative connotation about it because of what they always hear in the news for those people who invested using bitcoin and since they don't know that bitcoin is a separate entity, they would immediately think that investing in bitcoin is scam.

If you want to make people be aware of cryptocurrencies then you may start with your family and friends. They would not immediately dismiss you because they know your personality and if you can properly explain it to them then there is a chance that they may consider investing in it too.
107  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin worthy to buy ? right now? on: October 11, 2018, 12:21:13 PM
the bitcoin price right now is $6200, I think it's good to buy now and then when bitcoin increase you can sell right away just a do short trade or you can hold for long term if you want.

I prefer short trades than holding due to market uncertainty. A lot has been liquidated recently due to the flash dumping that's why it would be safer for me to have short trades and always set a stop loss because you'll never know when a flash dump would occur again. It seems now that the price is slowly recovering so maybe now, it is a good opportunity to buy because of the dumped but do not be too confident and spend all your funds, you should left something in case the price goes down further and you can cost average.
108  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin adoption for better life in future . on: October 11, 2018, 12:22:02 AM
Yes, many people simply do not know that there is such a payment method as bitcoin. Already, in fact, there are a lot of people and companies that accept bitcoin as payment.I, just like you, want Bitcoin to become an international currency for payment.In my opinion, Bitcoin is really created to create the conditions for a good life. And these conditions will be realized with the help of this wonderful technology.

Some only heard of it and are not interested because of their first impression of it. We know that when it comes to main stream media, most likely their news about bitcoin is bad that's why for some people, it is already inculcated in their mind not to get involve with bitcoin because most likely they would be scammed just like what happen to the people got involved with it in the news. If we want to let others know about it though then we can still share it to them the advantage of having bitcoin so their idea about it would be replaced.
109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance delist on: October 10, 2018, 12:36:42 PM
I really don't feel anything special or bad.  If a coin don't obey binance exchange rule,  it is not really a bad idea to get those coin delisted. I believe the rule is to create and maintain their standard as top quality exchange site.

If there are still teams behind the projects then it would be a wake up call for them to become more active and maybe think again of a marketing strategy so that their coin would have more demand. If you are an investor of those coins then it would be time to think of you want to hold that coin for long or you may consider or reinvesting it in a coin that has more volume and more active coin. More coins would be delisted in the future because the people are seeing those projects that will become valuable in the future.
110  Economy / Economics / Re: What manipulators want on: October 09, 2018, 01:17:45 PM
manipulators want to collect more cryptocurrencies. they manipulate the market and wants market to be dumped when they want to buy. and they manipulate for a rise with good volume when they want to cash out.

That's why if you want to have profits then you would want to think as a manipulator or the whales or the market makers. You would want to know what are they thinking or what their movement might be in this kind of market so that in this way, you can anticipate their movement and you can avoid being dumped and will be not late when the pump comes. One key factor here is having a trading plan always so that you will not be betrayed by your emotions in case there are sudden movements in the market.
111  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin won't top $9,000 by year's end, Novogratz says on: October 09, 2018, 01:10:27 PM
Well, it is a normal thing to see demand stagnated during periods like this when market is moving sideways, as there is uncertainty, check to see the level at which volume has dropped and apparently, most people are just waiting on the sidelines to see where the market will get to break out to.

Well, it is still too early to say that bitcoin would not be able to reach $9k by year end because if those who hold large amount of funds would decide to pump the market and encourage those retail traders to buy then they can do it. They just have to release some news, trigger the orders and then we can see an upside movement. It may just even take just a few days to double the price as it is now. We already saw the parabolic movement last year and it may happen again.
112  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Psychological fear dominates the market on: October 09, 2018, 01:01:29 PM

I guess this is partially true but this is not the only thing that matters in this market. This psychological fear control those people who are treating crypto as a money making platform but cannot affect those who are using crypto as currency.

If you are concern only about the actual use case of bitcoin being a currency then you would not worry about trading but we should take into account that if you wanted to buy something then they would still adjust the price of a product depending on the equivalent value of bitcoin in terms dollar because they bought their product with fiat so if the price of bitcoin falls then they would increase its price so that they would still have some profit.
113  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is there anyone here consistently trading cryptos successfully? on: October 08, 2018, 12:16:02 PM
to get a consistent profit every month in cryptocurrency trading is quite difficult to obtain, because crypto price movements cannot be accurately predicted so that prices can easily change so quickly. but for some people there may be those who succeed in targeting their monthly profits from cryptocurrency trading but that certainly requires strong expertise and focus on trade in this field

If one is successful in his trading journey and earning big amount of money then I don't he will comment in here because of the risk that he will become a target to the hackers. Some are so buy in their trading analysis that they can't even visit some other sites or forums for that matter. However, we should not forget that those who are successful are once upon a time noobs and because they persevere, they were at their position right now.
114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency courses, thoughts? on: October 08, 2018, 11:59:27 AM
As far as I know, I did not heard yet any open cryptocurrency course in any schools or university. Maybe because it is hard to research about it to made it as one of the curriculum in schools. However, some of us here, at first they did  not know what is cryptocurrency and just like me I learnt some ideas of crypto because of reading in this forum and sometimes watching on youtube.

If I were to choose and if I have the time, I would choose in taking a course about cryptocurrency because I know that I will be able to use my knowledge about it to come up with some ideas to earn from it. Most of my knowledge from cryptocurrency is from this forum given that I have been here for more than two years already. I may know the basics of it but still it would be great to learn it deeply. I may not understand totally the technicalities of it as I did not study computer related course but still knowing more about it would be great.

116  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it true that the market usually rises before the end of the year? on: October 07, 2018, 03:51:21 AM
Is it true that the market usually rises before the end of the year?
If so, why do you think it happens?
I spoke with few people that already said that in the last 5 years the market became really bulish

Yes, many people receive some money before the year ends and some would just like to invest it into something. Due to the trend of the past years, many are anticipating that it would happen again this year that's why when the year end approaches, price is slowly rising. We are still unsure if that will happen again this year given the state of the market but if it will happen then better start buying more coins so that you can have more profit in the months to come but still have risk management.
117  Economy / Economics / Re: The basis of being a poor- how little or how big? on: October 07, 2018, 03:41:14 AM
in fact I do not agree if people who do not have a car or do not have said to be poor. Yes, you are right. we do have to see it from another perspective. that is, people who can still make ends meet, they are not poor. poor people are people who have no home, and they ask for money from others.

Well, as for the standard definition of being poor, it would mean not being able to make ends meet and being penniless. It would actually depend on someone's perspective whether someone is poor on not because if you are living in a city wherein everyone in the neighbor hood has a car and you have none then you can be considered poor to them but if you go to the province and most people in there are just getting by and you are earning well compared to them then you are considered well off for them. It is about being below average in a place wherein you can be considered poor or not.
118  Economy / Economics / Re: Sick and tired of the cryptocurrency bullshit!!! on: October 06, 2018, 12:30:26 PM
That mindset has affected so many people's judgment and mentality in this space that they just keep seeing negativity when they should be seeing opportunity. If he is not seeing an opportunity in this bear market already, then I have nothing else to say to him.

When we can already see the frustration of the people then that would be the time that market will become better. Just like OP, some are just sick and tired of what is happening in the market and if you can't be patient in this kind of environment then better find someone else that would provide a profit that would not discourage you. Just think of ways then on how you can take advantage of the opportunity of the movements because cryptocurrency movements is more volatile compared to stocks.
119  Economy / Economics / Re: Apart from trading where else to use crypto? on: October 06, 2018, 12:18:04 PM
don't worry, everything will be answered by time, good cryptocurrency will be able to be purchased to buy in the local market, for now, fiat money is still the main money, I think Cryptocurrency still has risks, so people still aren't interested in Cryptocurrency.

I use cryptocurrency to pay some of my bills at times because we have a platform in our country wherein we can use crypto to pay such bills and I can recharge my phone as well. There are sites wherein you can shop and pay using bitcoin and so far, bitcoin and ethereum are the ones that are mostly used in the transactions. Even those who are in freelancing sites sometimes would ask bitcoin or ethereum as payment especially if the work is cryptocurrency related.
120  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My luck is very bad for crypto trading 😞 on: October 05, 2018, 01:06:16 PM
Sometimes I experienced the same way as you did. I feel so upset and very frustrated when I already sold it and then the price will go up like that. This was very bad for a trader or holder but then this will be a big lesson for us that we should become more careful next time.

Those kind of experiences is the key for one to be successful. All of us are noobs at the beginning but those who persevere becomes successful because instead of backing out, they choose to learn and fight their weaknesses so that they would be able to go with the flow with the market. One of your greatest fight when it comes to trading is yourself because you would try to conquer your emotions so that you can trade rationally.
