Of course it is really good and to hold and hedge gold/silver and include it in our portfolio which have been a practice of people who are really preparing in an event of financial crisis. But casuals like me can't, so I have no choice but to hold fiat and crypto's in general.

For me if a crash comes a long, it would be around $3000 lowest point. I agree we were sub $2000 a few months ago, but it has risen dramatically in the last couple of months pushing to where we at right now. We can't really predict when its gonna happen, but the best thing to do is be ready for this 'self-fulfilling' prophecy.

I think the term should be "enjoyment". And it you love and enjoy it, then success will come naturally. We will not put pressure in yourself to perform better in and out. And there will not a time that you consistently making good profit because you enjoy it and you are not frustrated and disappointed in trading. This is like going to work everyday, if you don't like the people around you and not enjoying going in everyday, you will not be productive and should move out already. As long as you enjoy the ride in trading, you will be fine.

There are a lot of forum members who have profited a lot from this forum. Joining ICO is one thing, if you got lucky the ICO you joined can you get good pay once its coin is listed on a exchange. That is why its more profitable sometimes to join a altcoin bounty, signature campaigns.

But as for me, if you are really going to stick to this forum, you can really find ways to earn money as compared to other forums that only offers product to sell. So just be a member here follows the rules join a signature campaign in bitcoin and altcoin section and after a month you will earn really good.

I also do think that the price will not go down further in 10% dips. Why? Because every dip now is the perfect opportunity to buy and get in to get profits later. Last dip is $3600 if I'm not mistaken but suddenly jumps to $4xxx because everybody started to buy again. So for me, I don't think that we are going to see a crash in the future.

Now, I'm seeing a minor price correction again, down to 3% but I'm sure that it will regain because as I have said every dips was a good time for new investors to get into the ecosystem pushing the price back to where in was once and even further.

I think its really the losses that they have incurred in the last few months. Otherwise, I don't other reasons that they give. Although I think that self-funded casino's without investors would also contribute to them closing. They don't have a full backup the way I see as compared to other casino's. Even bitdice and Betking are opening up ICO's to really attract good investors of course to make the business more sustainable. But as in Rollio.io case, they are self-funded and one big whalers can swept all their earning causing them to shut it down.

Well, when one closes, another opportunity opens, so I'm guessing that new casino's will pop up and replace the void that Rollio has left.

Maybe because you are always in front of your computer or in a internet shop and doesn't go home. LOL.

Seriously though, if you have proven that you can help your parents in anyway you can and show that you are not just in front of your PC wasting time then they probably believe you. Or just treat them the first time you earn your first bitcoin so that they will be very happy and proud of you. And tell them all about bitcoin as well and maybe then can be a believer then.

Floyd doesn't have a lot of fans because he is so boastful and arrogant and fans watch go to his fans to see him lose unfortunately he is still 49-0 and will be 50-0 because he will surely win this fight against Conor Mcgregor.

Floyd is still at the top of his game so it will be very difficult to Conor to hit him. And its not far fetch that Mayweather can KO Conor because he's punching power is underrated. I'm think I'm going what the betting public thinks, Floyd Mayweather Jr. will win this fight, Just a matter what round he will win.

I think it has already been discussed numerous time that bitcoin is not really anonymous, but psuedo-anonymous that it why we have mixing services to begin with.. You can try monero, which offers protection for those we want to remain hidden in the network. That is why this is one factors that lead to Bitmixer.io closing down its services few months ago or those government agency are really on their throats.

Although there are still tumbling services that offer more protection as they have claimed, but sooner or later the government will catch up on them.

No doubt, I have used their service before and was able to get confirmations and good thing it is for free. But as you have mentioned, they only accepts first 100 users so you have to wait before getting your transaction to be confirmation. But it really works.


I think Antpool is mining empty blocks that's why the network is congested. I don't know what they don't mine using Segwit software as it was agreed up and it seems that they are doing is on purpose. On the other hand they are losing $100K for not mining Segwit transaction. We may never know the real reason behind why they are acting like this.

Absolutely, we really don't know when our luck will end and most of us really think that it will continue and will not quit then suddenly the losing streak begins and now we are trap, we can't control our emotions and we want to get back what we have before the losing streak. And then the cycles started. And we can't really stop until the last drop of our bitcoin is swept. And then regretting our decision on not quitting early on when we are winning and now thinks that tomorrow we well try our luck again but then, we lose everything.

It really hard to tell but the scenario you laid out is a good strategy. I have seen an ICO price that is not good but then when it was listed in a top trading platform, the price skyrocketed to more than 100%. So this is just another scenario that could happen that will make you sell your coins.

It happened to a lot of ICO's out there. Actually I did experience did and I'm happy that I hold the coins for the last 3 months and then the price went nuts. LOL.

Although I'm expecting the price to really push further however, but it did more or less retain its midweek rally. And it looks like the price just stabilizes at around $4000-$4200. I'm anticipating that we can push it to $5000 but it ain't gonna happen. I guess the future price of bitcoin will really hinges on the November Segwit2x hard fork.

Or it is still early to speculate about the price since it has just started so the extent of the activation hasn't felt. We should really give it some time to be sure that it has really a good effect to the price heading to the looming Segwit2x in November.

Yes, he is an Olympian and I don't think the lost to Jones will be a mental barrier for him. He his a total warrior and mentally strong. I'm sure he will be back. Heavyweight was the first division that he really competed in. I was surprise to find him in LHW, although it has something to do with Cain Velasquez being the champion at Heavyweight that time and he doesn't want to fight him as we all know that they are training partners.

I absolutely wanted him to fight in Heavyweight as I'm seeing that division as somewhat pretty weak right now. And he could probably reign their as well.

We all felt cheating when we lost in a casino. But if you look closely, its our own fault why we lost. You should have quit early and not wait till I lost all my money and then accused them of something like cheating. How long have you been gambling anyways? Most of us have literally lost thousands and not even complaining because they don't take it personally against a casino. Maybe you are just unlucky that moment. Just continue with your life. And let this be a lesson to you as well.

I think with the previous blip, which is people are been waiting for to get and buy bitcoins again has bought already. That is why we saw that it has rebounded very quickly and for me this is another beginning of a bull run of bitcoin. So there is no question that the price could go to the moon at the end of the year.

People have already trusted that sometimes when there is a dip, its a perfect opportunity to get bitcoins again and hold on it for the long term because all of us believes that the price will exponentially grow in the years to come.

Of course the man himself.

And I think Theymos took over from Satoshi when he left this forum. And the rest is history.

Here is a thread about Satoshi's wallet if you are interested as well.

I think you will never have the chance since he is last active here in 2010. Although it will be really a pleasure to at least have a conversation with him in this forum. The man is truly legendary because he created something that take the world by storm and we are now reaping its rewards.

LOL. I think if you are stressed out, I recommend you to just sell it. However, the best opportunity to sell it is when the price is as high as $700-$800 so that you can maximized the profit. But since you are stressed, dump the coin and exit early before the crash will go further.

But then again, if you invest what you can afford then why are you so stressed?


Did you check the latest price? Its down to $585 right now and not $700. That's why I said that he should have exit at this price. Now he is trap and the price keeps going down. The pumped has been over with this coin so I doubt it will be pump again.

Well if this is true then it will be good for new investors to buy bitcoin for the first time and I'm sure that the price could recover quickly. I don't know where you get your news cause you didn't put your sources. But I doubt that miners would suddenly and quickly change to BCC. I don't think that Segwit is already price in. I also thought so about this, but the price is continue to soar after the fork so I don't think that Segwit price is already in already.

For me, you are just enticing people to sell their coins so this is FUD at the highest level. Sorry dude but I'm not dumping my coins but will continue to buy in dips like this.

I think that's how promote himself mate. This is part of the psychological war he is playing with Conor. This is not the first time that Floyd has done this in the past as well. So you see you are affected by Floyd's ploy here. This is how he want's himself to be portrait and hated by lots of people. And this hater come to watch Floyd vs Conor. Because they want to see him lose, unfortunately 49 have tried, and 49 have failed. Conor will be his 50th victim.

Mayweather is really good in promoting himself and this fight. Again, I'm pretty sure that this will be the biggest sporting event this year in terms of PPV and revenue.

It will not be profitable for some because they did know how the teams like in NBA play. If you don't know about the sports then its not wise for you to do sports betting. But for most of us who followed, NBA, football or even tennis, it's favorable to us because you know the teams or players strengths and weaknesses. That's why most of the gamblers prefer it.

Of course risk is involved and we are not 100% that we are always going to bet, so this sports betting is more exciting as compared to like dice games or slots or roulettes.
