10801  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin cash keep loosing value or will go up again ? on: October 16, 2017, 11:31:29 AM
I bought it at 530 so im loosing money at.the moment my questoon is will it go up to  this value again or higher ?

Sorry to break the bubble but I think it will take longer before you can at least recover your losses here. Bitcoin Cash didn't gain enough traction from the community that's why the price didn't took off as expected. Why did you buy Bitcoin Cash anyway? Do you believed about that coin?

I think the community has spoken and they don't like another "clone" coin that's why the price has been slumping lately. And there is the upcoming Bitcoin Gold as well, which I think can affect the price of BCH in a negative way. Get out and stick to bitcoin or any other altcoins like ETH, NEO or LTC.

I just wish that the segwit will not cause bitcoin to crashed and reach $2800 again, its pretty nice seeing how bitcoin increase rapidly in just few weeks but I come to think if this is just a preparation for a sudden dump in the price of bitcoin. Let's see what's gonna happen in couple of days.

The crash that caused bitcoin to reach $2800 is the Chinese banning and subsequent negative news from them. What sudden dump are you seeing? This is just normal to see minor correction. If they dump their coins, they will lose their chance to get free money, so it doesn't make sense to do that today. You have to wait on Oct. 26 to know if there are really dumping. The only dumps that's gonna happen is bitcoin gold, because investors will likely not to support it. They are all in for the free money and dump it and buy more bitcoins. Don't be paranoid dude.
10803  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can be hacked? on: October 16, 2017, 10:17:58 AM
I love the concept of Bitcoin. I believe the Internet will redefine currency as we know it.  I hope this helps the Bitcoin community to develop a currency that's really resilient to attacks.

But, is it possible?

Can you give us one scenario that bitcoin has been attacked before?

Blockchain, the underlying technology behind bitcoin has no history of such attacks, although it has been spammed before causing the network to clogged down a little. And with regards to bitcoin wallet, its your own responsibility to protect it against hackers, like having strong passwords, 2FA and secure your private keys. I hope you can research first before posting here because it looks like you don't have a clue what bitcoin/blockchain is.

10805  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin cash or Bitcoin gold? on: October 09, 2017, 11:29:05 PM
I'll still stick with the original bitcoin. The only good thing is that it can be mined with GPU computers as opposed to Bitcoin Cash which the Chinese still monopolize. So Bitcoin Gold  can keep the mining process more decentralized. However, the new network doesn't have protection for replay attack. So that's a lot of doubt around Bitcoin Gold is they will be successful in the future. So not to make things complicated on my end, I will just stick to bitcoin until I see either one of the two gain traction from the community(which I doubt). Let's see how will this evolved when everything settles after Oct. 25.
10806  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Good time to buy ETH now? on: October 09, 2017, 10:50:44 PM
I sold most of my ETH last night and bought some BTC.  I needed to fix my coin allocation anyways.  That said, I wouldn't buy ETH right now.  I wouldn't put any money in at this moment, but if I did, it would be into BTC.  

I'm a little fish so any trades were minimal fwiw.
Are you expecting to get the free bitcoin gold in the future? it seems that become true, you are converting all of your ethereum into the bitcoin itself. And i may think about this will have a relationship with bitcoin fork.

Of course, it really makes sense to dump ETH now and put it all on bitcoin because of the upcoming HF which you will get free coins. And you will see that bitcoin has rise to $4800. If I'm going to ETH, I wouldn't go with the current price. Its still high and I will wait for it to floor just a couple of days to HF. Maybe around $200-$250 is a good buying point. As of now, its not. Altcoin market is bleeding, nothing you can do as traders would likely putting money in bitcoin. Sp I'll just wait for a few more days and see if the market still move sideways and at the price range that I stated was meet, then I will definitely buy more ETH.

This user recently woke up from a long period of inactivity.


Wouldn't trust as most likely this account has been hacked. He is offering good pay without escrow is another red flag. Just be careful and don't cry if you didn't get paid.
10808  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it right time to Buy Alts? on: October 09, 2017, 10:32:17 PM
guys...alts are bleeding ? great discounts going on, which are tempting ...but since btc gold on oct 25th and later nov first week btc hardfork coming...so ppl move their stash from alts to btc to get free money as result of fork.... so is it right time to jump in or wait few more weeks and buy right before fork? share your thoughts

Too tempting not to buy alts now because the market is bleeding. However, the questions is what coins are best to get for a discounted price? You don't want to get trap once Oct 25 is completed and we don't know if alt traders will go back to the ecosystem. So I would rather wait until everything settles on the bitcoin market before I decide to go back to altcoin. Or I'll just wait until a couple of days and buy at the last minute to really get the floor price of my target altcoin.  Grin. Just maybe. Grin
10809  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Back to 5000 Dollars ? on: October 09, 2017, 10:12:37 PM
the probability of hitting Bitcoin price again at 5000 dollars is it close enough to hit this coming week ?
It really is. Bitcoin's market value is increasing continuously right now. It is now on 4400$ and achieving a market value of 5000$ by the end of this month or by this week has a huge possibility. Since the hardfork is approaching, it will be in favor for Bitcoin if it will be able to reach 5000 before the hardfork even if sudden backdrops are expected.

It's gonna be a new ATH this coming week guys. The price is around $4800-$4900 so the possibility to hit $5000 is very possible.. So let's just continue to hodl. As a effect, altcoin is market is bleeding because altcoin traders moved their funds to bitcoin. Let's go and try to hit by end of the week and see where it goes until the looming hard fork. And please let's forgot about China, they have nothing to do with the increase of the recent price. Goldman Sach rumor that they might put up a trading platform for bitcoin might have also contributed to the great rally we are seeing today.
10810  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: ERC20 tokens on Myetherwallet on: October 08, 2017, 12:15:07 PM

I got that we can see the token on MEW if we add the custom token before receiving from them.Can we able to add the custom token and see the coins on MEW AFTER receiving the coins from them?
If not how can we send the coins to other exchanges?

You need to customized your MEW to see your tokens. See below customized data that you need.

Contract:
Symbol:
Decimal:

Now, if you received your token and see it in your MEW, you need to register to the exchange that the token will be listed. Then send you tokens to that exchanges. But you need to deposit ETH on your MEW first so that you have gas. Gas is like a fee that you need to pay in bitcoins. If you do not have ETH, then you can't send it to that exchanges.
10811  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Signature Campaigns: New Rule Suggestion on: October 08, 2017, 11:41:15 AM
I agree with user dothebeats minds above. There is no reason to rush signature campaign managers just to prevent free advertising of company. Anyway, mostly campaign managers accept or deny users quite fast. You should understand that posting with having paid signature is not a job, so, you will not loose anything if you won't get paid for some posts.
P.S. It's a bit fun to see users who always jumping through campaigns when they notice higher paying campaign started. They leaving current their campaign in middle of round and if they not accepted to higher paying campaign, they back to their current campaign again. I think that users have to show a little loaylty to company that they are advertising and not behave like a bitches.

P.S. And there was one participant who have been caught jumping from one campaign to another and then went back when we was rejected. Unfortunately, he was caught and subsequently get the red tag. And I totally agree with you all, this rule show not be implemented. Its still up to the campaign manager. And we can't really force they to apply it to their campaign. If you are rejected then something must be wrong with your posting or posting history.
10812  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you check Bitcoin price everyday? on: October 08, 2017, 11:12:22 AM
Of course we all do. I want to check what is the current price and see if its going up or going down. You want to see if you're investing is doing good or not. And when its down, I look for the reasons why. Is there a negative news around? And I also buy when the price is down as well. So its really important for most of us to really check and be updated on the current price. I usually goes to preev.com or epsilon.one.
10813  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When the bounty campaign is weak, but the ICO is successful on: October 07, 2017, 07:29:37 PM
Hi guys,

Perhaps you have encountered situations when some projects have a weak or completely failed bounty campaign, but ultimately they hold a successful ICO. Why is this happening?

For example, the project Ambrosus with whom I happened to deal. In the comments to the bounty campaign there are complaints that nothing can be understood in the campaign rules. And there really is not as usual. Probably therefore the number of participants in the signature campaign, Twitter and other programs is minimal, but the project has already raised more than 100000 ETH. Is this an exception or is it so often?


Ok here is the thing. The bounty has minimal participants but it has raised a lot of funds. I think I would join that campaign, Why? because you are very lucky that the tokens will be divided among few participants. So as a result each one of you will get a lot of tokens. As compare to a bounty that has a lot of participants but if you are going to divide them it will result to like .010 cents or less per token. Did you get the idea?

The fact is that in this campaign everything is fixed and based on the Swiss franc, and not divided as usual among the participants. And the conditions are good enough. In particular, in the social media campaign.

This maybe one of the factors that why the project didn't get enough traction from the community. And you also said that the rules are not clear, hunters here wants the bounty to be divided and its fixed then there is really a disconnect from the community.

Or maybe there are a lot of hype around this project before the actual ICO that's why they got huge investments from the very beginning. I do think that pre-Marketing has something to contribute to the success eventhough the bounty campaigns has little participants.
10814  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why do so many people wait for "bitcoin to crash" to buy some, and miss out on: October 07, 2017, 06:56:07 PM
These people who don't want to buy because "the price is high" will only buy it when fiat money is abolished by governments and replaced by bitcoin. But by that time, bitcoin will be 1 million dollars each, and they will not be able to complain about the "high price".

There is no high for bitcoin, only lows. If you buy at $4000, expect to be $6000 in six months, or even earlier than that.



Yeah. That's one lesson I learn the hard way. We should get bitcoin whatever the price. You just need patience because it will take time to really show how much profit you can get. History charts are on our side. Bitcoin has proven time and time again that it can rise in time. So if you think that the price is too high for you, think again.You don't want to regret your decision saying that you should have bought it when the price is $4000 because the price could you as high as $6000-$7000 in the next 6 months. So prepare your funds now so that you can't miss the party later.
10815  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do I hold? on: October 06, 2017, 06:22:00 AM
You never lost with hold. Buy and forget your coin and don't track daily prices. If you track you can make panic and sell your coins.

Those who HOLD are the real winners simply because bitcoin is really great in term of making money. Just be more patience and for sure you will enjoy the benefits of it in the future. There is a great opportunity here in bitcoin we just need to use it well.

There are no doubt that bitcoin is the best to hold for long term. This year alone it has rose to more than %300. Imagine if you have been holding bitcoin that long, you should be millionaires by now. But its really hard to hold that long though, maybe if you have forgotten it. Because sometimes when you see that the price is really strong and high and you have good returns, if hard not to sell and take your profits. You really need a lot of discipline and patience.
10816  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is China still going to ban bitcoin exchange in China on: October 06, 2017, 05:13:49 AM
There is a chance China would lift the ban. They might be planning something big with this. Considerimg 70% of mines are in China.

Correct, we must prepare on what is going to happen next, we don't know what can China do to the cryptos, mostly they are the big whales in the market, some bitcoin drama so the people will sell their bitcoins because of panicking and they are the one who is going to be benefited by this. Just hold your bitcoin guys, let's hang to it, it is promising.

Well we have been sailing without China already so I think we are good already. Some of the exchanges have been close already. Last news I heard is that they are not totally banning exchanges, they just would like to see that they should apply permit before operating. So likely that they have been drafting rules and regulations before allowing them to be up once more. Just hold on your bitcoin and see what happens next.
10817  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin rise is over on: October 06, 2017, 03:17:08 AM

I think the bitcoin will steadily grew up because I see the graph of the growth of the movement of the bitcoin that bitcoin already is at $4300 and it will likely be increasing up $4500 even more this month, but still many people that worry will be the movement of the bitcoin fearing to fall again. but I am sure this will not happen in the bitcoin
However the price grow with steady phase, at some point the fluctuations will be experienced causing a drop in the value. Here the users need to understand that the price variations is the factor provided with the profit as well the price gets recovered in a short or longer time period. Hold until get profited rather than getting panic and ending up losing.

Of course there will be always price fluctuations. This is also present even in the stock trading. Others took it hard when they see that the price is going down because they fear that they might end up loosing. However, you really have to understand that the market will not stay bullish all the time. The OP though that the rise is over, however, we can seen bitcoin lately in a see-saw form. Not the one that we are expecting. But there will be a time that the market will be very bullish and once you see that, all your worries and frustrations and doubts with the market will be removed.
10818  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots Strategies? on: October 05, 2017, 07:46:22 AM
I have played slots before and sometimes its really infuriating and other times a lot of addicting fun. But There doesnt seem much more to it than spinning the reels or pressing one button. Does anyone know of any slot strategies people use? Is there such a thing as a professional slotter haha. OR is it really the most heavily dependent on luck gambling game ?


I'm a slot player and I must say that there is no strategy. But what I usually do is to start with a minimum then gradually increase my bet if I'm not getting any wins. Usually, I got lucky and hit a bonus with a max bet and sometimes I win big, but most of the times the bonus was just so-so. So I must say its solely depends on luck. But I usually won big by betting max bet. If you have huge bankroll then try to go big, but if you have small a minimum bet is ok and you don't know maybe you can hit the major jackpot.
10819  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BitPay’s Bitcoin Payments Volume Grows by 328%, On Pace for $1 Billion Yearly on: October 05, 2017, 07:05:16 AM
Actually there is almost no any good alternative to bitpay so all merchants are just using them as third party bitcoin processors. This growth they have also suggest many new merchants are now accepting bitcoin as payment method (atleast for deposit), lately skrill and neteller have also added bitcoin as deposit method which is quite shocking for me.

Skrill and Neteller wants to target bitcoin users to remain in online payment business  Grin Grin

Skrill and Neteller wants to take a slice of the pie. As evident by how much Bitpay has profited as being a third party. They have really captured most of the market and with little competition, its not quite surprising to see them at the top. But I'm seeing the Skrill and Neteller entering the picture. So let's see how it goes. Although they are new in the business, Healthy competition is good for us. At least we have options right now and I do hope that they will offer good service as well.
10820  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: do you think its good if whole world will have ICO regulations? on: October 05, 2017, 06:40:25 AM
do you think its good if whole world will have ICO regulations?
do we want that?
why?
and what can be a solution for that?

As for me yes, it would be a good idea. So that we can weed out in the beginning those ICO that are really scamming investors of their hard earn money. Instead of countries are one by one cracking it down which is not good to the market. China has started it, crashing the price last Sept then South Korea follow as well. Those investors in bitcoin losses confidence once they see that country are taking a hard line against it. So much better to just put a regulation and that company should apply and get a permit or license before offering any ICO.
