1021  Economy / Economics / Re: could bitcoin be replaced by another crypto currency? on: November 28, 2017, 07:30:06 AM
i do this question because i´ve read in this website issues with bitcoin, slow mining process, high fees, etc. and i´ve read too good reviews of some altcoins, ethereum (smart contracts), ripple (for transfers between banks), dash and nem. these altcoins called 2.0. could bitcoin become just in future virtual gold reserved to companies and rich people?

It is surely possible sir if Bitcoin doesn't make a move. Bitcoin is not the only cryptocurrency in the net, it has many competetors and their goal is to be step ahead from them. Bitcoin is still patronizing by many people because of its interesting features but if there is a crypto that will have more interesting and base on its users, Bitcoin will be out of the line.
I am happy you mentioned that word that if bitcoin does not make a move. We sure do have a lot of competitors but have you asked yourself that despite all these competitive projects you think are out there right now and the huge transactions fees we have experienced, why do you think investors have not gotten angry to move to those coins ?

No one wants to invest in a non-tested on a large scale coin which is what makes bitcoin different and investors to be able to trust it thus far. Based on your opinion raised though, do you think it is possible for bitcoin to just remain stagnant with no improvement ?
1022  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I keep holding my NEO? on: November 27, 2017, 09:09:52 AM
Hello guys, I currently have quite a bit of NEO and I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to dump it all on Dash or another currency?

I'm thinking about putting all my faith on Dash with the Dash evolution coming up.

Opinions? Thanks!

Edit: Also I like the fact that holding NEO generate free GAS.
Do not put all on one coin ! If you are interested in Dash evolution I think it would be wise if you sell half NEO to buy Dash
Yeah, most times we really do not even know what the future holds and then we have to just make decisions based on what we can assume or predict. Dash too is a good option, but at this stage when NEO is really down, I would advise the OP to just hold.

Aside these, if he has some strong reasons to want to have some Dash just in case, I see no reason why he should not like you have said, since Dash really do have some great prospect as well.
1023  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: BITCOIN GOLD SCAM SITE mybtgwallet.com on: November 27, 2017, 08:23:53 AM
I really do not know why people do not listen or they just tend to take some unnecessary risks. I really do not know how legit this news may be but one thing people should always do before the try to claim another chain is to move out their funds from that wallet first. Any shit can happen and you have to be prepared for the unspeakable.

This whole BTG thing is really getting out of hand and I really hope it does not end up being more of a huge disaster than being a shit coin.
1024  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where I can learn Bitcoin Trading? on: November 27, 2017, 07:06:41 AM
Hello, everyone.
I am new here. I want to make money from Bitcoin Trading. So First, I want to learn Bitcoin Trading. Please advise me or recommend me some resource where I can learn Bitcoin Trading.

Advanced Many Many Thanks to You All....   Cool

I usually ask people here in the forum whenever I want to learn something. But, recently I have read some books about trading online, you can actually google everything there. Although, most of it is not about trading bitcoin, but just purely trading. I think we can apply the principles there in bitcoin. Hope this helps.
There are so many resources online and laziness is the only thing making some people not to find them. No one will actually give you anything on a platter of gold as you have to work for them or you have to buy them.

Still, these days, some Pro traders even though they are benefiting from it as their subscribers keep increasing, have been able to share their knowledge so far, so that any newbie trader can get going quickly and do a good job. Google and YouTube is enough to find good resources to learn how to trade.
1025  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Time management. on: November 27, 2017, 06:21:56 AM
it takes time to read and to speculate statistics and graphics, it takes about an hour to read the latest news and we can learn a lot of things when we do bounties, and to do trading Do a simple trade that is a famous coin or trend coin, and when the price drops do not trade and if it goes up, start selling it. but be a little patient to wait for it.


Usually, i manage my time working with bitcoin life. Morning i was able to read all the comments and speculation relating on trading and discussion and afterall i have to update my signature campaign for everyday posting. And accommodating my followers through twitter and last is searching some nice airdrop comment with social media site.


Why do you not try to trading? It seems you have much time for working, but trading is the trending to make money, working as freelancer with micro payment does not help you become the rich or change life.
This is a point I have always kept to heart. Most times we do not know what we are missing until we exploit another option. We may think one is just good enough, then until we discover all other options before we can really value the time and use it for something better.

Still, it is not to be forgotten that, whether trading or micro gigs, if being used properly and valued, they can both be good. You cannot opt into trading without learning and you just still have to ensure you are taking the right steps at the right time so you do not end up regretting your decisions.
1026  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin kill maximum alt coins? on: November 26, 2017, 07:13:12 PM
Altcoins are mainly a good trading option for daily profits. When the volume goes to BTC, altcoins are mainly dumped. I think Bitcoin won't kill altcoins, however BTC domination is only increasing.
For some sharp profits though and picking them up at dips, altcoin still is a very cool way to make profit. Asides that, the best way to hold altcoin most especially when it comes to trading is to never hold them for too long as bitcoin's bull trend is just something we will keep seeing for now and there is no way altcoins can easily have a chance to get boost as long as this keeps happening.
1027  Economy / Speculation / Re: Btc: hodl or invest? on: November 25, 2017, 04:03:52 AM
In my opinion, if you don't have any experience with trading just don't invest BTC in other crypto. Bitcoin is more stable than other coins. Farther, coins like Bitcoin Gold are shity...

I think holding BTC will give you better ROI than investing in alts.
That just caps it all. It is one thing to want to invest and it is another thing to be sure of where one is really investing. For someone who is not really sure of how or where to invest, I guess holding for dear life just seems to be the best option so as not to end up losing what one has already.

After all, for someone who has plans for investment and is so sure about his decisions, then investment is just perfect as you keep increasing in quantity and in value.
1028  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin ends a year at $10 000 on: November 25, 2017, 03:43:25 AM
maybe yes and maybe 100k by the end of 2018.
everything in our life has a value because people said it has a value.
Definitely, and that is one statement that is true. However, the good thing about bitcoin is that it actually has a value even without people having to say it. The increase in value anyway, is where the demand comes in.

If I say the value I want to sell mine is $100,000, as long as there is no one countering the value I want to sell mine, it will just have to be accepted that way. But what makes it last and going is the usefulness. 100k in 2018 though is something that sounds so unrealistic right now.
1029  Economy / Economics / Re: China's complicates Bitcoins miners on: November 24, 2017, 03:02:31 PM
Earlier this month, the news of bitcoin banned in china is a big setback for bitcoin and it also affects the miners. Though they can divert what they currently hold in abroad exchanges still this is a major problem that complicates the investors residing in China, they are really strict when it comes to bitcoin matter that is why this a very serious matter not only for the chinese bitcoin investor but also outside the china premises because their portion has a big part on what could bitcoin achieve.
I do not see China as a country that should be making the community sweat. In fact, we give the country too much relevance. Certainly, we understand that the huge mining rigs are present there but that does not mean that is the only place miners exist.

Bitcoin has shown itself so strong that without China it would keep on going, so I see no reason why we should let news from this region raise huge issue or debates.
1030  Economy / Marketplace / Re: 1 Year in Cryptocurrency still no luck earning bitcoin. Need some real advice. on: November 24, 2017, 02:40:56 PM
Whoever is trying to earn for more than a year and still have not earn anything should move on and try different kind of work.
How hard it can be? I see 12 year old children are wearing signatures, trading, mining etc if it is not hard for them to earn then it shouldn't be hard to anyone else.
And then I see someone who hit the nail right on the end. Really it is not even something we should be talking much about. A year, 12 months, 365 days! Come on!!

Apparently, the OP was looking in the wrong places or he was not just looking at all. Manna will not just fall from the sky or someone would be in the house sleeping and expect bitcoin to just be entering their wallets without working for it.

As you have said, even young guys are laying their hands on getting some cash and someone is still looking for advice on why he has not earned for a year ?
1031  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Accepting bitcoin for service on: November 24, 2017, 01:54:33 PM
I think its great idea if your include bitcoin as your services payment. I think i can answer the simplest think i can since i am also newbie.
First you need to make your wallet, i prefer blockchain.info
Then just accept bitcoin as your payment.
It is not just a great idea but a very brilliant one. I have been accepting bitcoin as payment for my services for a while now and really I have never regretted it and sometimes I do wish I have been accepting longer than this but it is still all good.

Fiats will not give you what bitcoin can ever give you in the long run. Asides accepting as payment, it keeps increasing in value as well from the little you save and sometimes it just feels like you have been keeping all you have been earning and still living well. That is for those earning something good with some high level of hard work though.
1032  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Turning crypto into fiat or is that even nessesary anymore! on: November 24, 2017, 12:30:53 PM
Right now it is still necessary to convert digital currencies into fiat. It is still necessary because there are things that bitcoin itself or other coins can't buy. What is the other option then? Convert bitcoin into fiat money in order to buy things that can't buy using crypto coins.
Cryptocurrency has been accepted in some countries in the world but not all are accepting it or they don't even know it so they prefer fiat money rather than crypto
The reason why bitcoin cannot buy most of these things is just mainly because it is hard to find merchants to accept them so far. I would really want to see the time when merchants will start making good use of bitcoin as payment system in flexible terms as this would really create huge awareness for the currency. However, I believe this would obviously mean the government one way will have to be involved.
1033  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Best Exchange for trading? on: November 24, 2017, 11:03:31 AM
We all judge based on our personal experiences.
That is really the point. Like they always say in my place, that the fact that you have not been to another man's farm does not make your own farm the biggest. Most times, we all end up choosing one particular platform to trade and once we get comfortable with that platform, we always feel it is the best.

There are so many good platforms and of course, except we have a specific coin we prefer trading which is not in one, then that is when we can really say we may want to make use of 2 or 3 at once. Experience is what makes us stick with a platform or make it disgusting to us.
1034  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to become a TRADER on: November 24, 2017, 07:31:10 AM
I want to learn to trade and become acquainted with the field of crypto currency trading. what should I do? I am currently reading trading technical analysis but I do not understand technical analysis and a pattern. I tried to live trading I earned a .001 btc. I prefer more profit than trading.
If you are a trader then you have become a trader directly, but to become an expert skilled or often profitable you have to want to look for iformation and do a lot of research about the market and also altcoins.
Anyone can decide to call themselves a trader as long as they hit the trading platform and they are buying and selling even when they are losing.

Being an expert or a professional trader like you have said is what really counts the most which is not something one can be without a proper knowledge of trading. With that, one is guaranteed to always make quality trading decisions and lot of profits.
1035  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Volatility on: November 24, 2017, 06:46:42 AM
Is volatility over in cryptocurrencies? Nothing is moving.
Who said nothing is moving ? Have you hit the charts to see nothing moving ?
There is still a lot of buying and selling going on and the difference is that the movements are not that huge. One thing I am sure of is that there will always be volatility as anything that has to do with demand and supply will always be volatile and it is just the level that may reduce which I am pretty sure we are still far from it with cryptocurrencies.
1036  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who uses myetherwallet? on: November 24, 2017, 06:27:23 AM
everyone on the group chat on my facebook said that etherwallet is the one to use when it comes to wallet and they also say that this wallet is safe so i recommend it to other people as well but i will recommend to buy a ledger for more safer way to store your token
MyEtherWallet will always be safe as long as the person who owns the wallet is very careful. Most times it is even preferable you make use of wallets that would give you access to your private keys instead rather than having to enter your private key on the MEW wallet every now and then so as to prevent the mistake of having to enter on any phishing website.

Does anyone here use Chrome Extension Metamask (metamask.io)?
I have heard so many people who have used it not having any problem. However, I am not sure and personally I am not usually comfortable with extensions, but you can try to find more review about it via Google before you go ahead. Moreover, easy way out sometimes always feel like the most dangerous to me. I may be wrong.
1037  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Can i trust EtherDelta with my Private Keys ? on: November 24, 2017, 05:57:50 AM
Yes they are reliable .But make sure you check the url of the website to be sure you are on their website. There are a lot of scam url. so be careful your private key is not stolen .
This is where most people always make a huge mistake. They go to Google, search for EtherDelta platform and then click on an Ad placed on Google by some scammers.

For those who will be making use of EtherDelta, it is always better to even bookmark the main site of etherdelta or cross check the website you are inputting your private key very well before you end up giving scammers your private key. So many people have fallen for some of this so called cloned website.
1038  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What altcoin will make us rich? on: November 23, 2017, 07:13:26 PM
ripple, Et - the most dynamically developing crypto-currencies for today. Nem, Dash, litecoin, Iota, Monero - are also interesting from the investment point of view.
Ripple? If I am giving 1million XRP today for free, I will sell everything. I have never been comfortable one day holding this coin for so long knowing its history. However, no one can really say anything yet for now, but rather than holding a controlled coin, I would rather hold fiat. There are so many coins with a lot of prospect and the thing is that except one really gets lucky, one may never really know which one would bring the wealth in the long run.
1039  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin Cash beat BTC? on: November 23, 2017, 06:56:09 PM
No BCH cant beat BTC because BCH whales are mostly chinese people,you know chinese they want to be at the top but they cant because BTC is unique and widely used.
how do you get the conclusion that BCH whales are Chinese? Each bitcoin user is naturally a BCH user, do you mean BTC whales are mostly Chinese?
Each bitcoin user is not naturally a BCH user and I really do not get why you would have to say that. I dumped my BCH and so many other people did when it came into the market except recently when we all saw the sudden manipulations and unfortunately so many traders fell for it.

We all know those behind the stunts and most especially Roger Ver and he obviously is not a Chinese. Jihan Wu on the other hand who is the co-founder of bitmain is definitely a Chinese and they both have the resources as whales to manipulate BCH which is where I reserve my comments.
1040  Economy / Economics / Re: If the powerful governments wanted to, do you think they could stop Bitcoin? on: November 23, 2017, 05:16:44 PM
This is something which I've beleived for awhile, which is the prospect that if big governments and banks worked heavily together they'd be able to remove Bitcoin from the face of the earth. They wouldn't ban it, as that would be a tough thing to swallow for the American people as they wouldn't see a good reason to do that ( at least in my mind here) But they could just go ahead and regulate Bitcoin into oblivion, making it hard for Bitcoin businesses (buying and selling, trading, etc) to operate within their countries, or be subject to insane taxes, KYC AML and such.

Do you think Governments could kill Bitcoin?
Government cannot do nothing about bitcoin. Bitcoin is decentralized and no one can stop it aside from internet. Internet is the heart of bitcoin, without this bitcoin is useless. But, we also know that no one owns internet and even government can't stop it. They might shutdown in but they cannot do it worldwide because we are now in modern world and internet is the first part of it.
Certainly, without the internet, bitcoin is totally useless. Secondly, we are in control now and anyone can decide to place the value they want on their currency as long as they want it rather than being enslaved by the government and then they end up throwing inflation bullshit at us based on their control at the detriment of the masses.

Their time is over mate and bitcoin being a global decentralized currency, there is nothing they can do about it. Like a friend of mine always says, Bitcoin is a currency by the people, to the people and for the people.
