There has been a lot of discussion whether or not ETH is a scam but if you think it is then just stay away from and let others make the mistakes, keep your money in bitcoin and other projects ans you are going to be safe when things go crash down, if it happens at all.
Well, I bought eth at 64 cents a piece; it's now at 240 USD....if it's a scam, it's a very good scam because all it has done is make me money! I'll take it! LOL This is the most inaccurate scam accusation happened in the world I guess. Ethereum it's a pure innovation which let companies use smart contracts and some people still claim that ether is a scam. Shame on them clearly.

The distribution of total fund looks good. 25 BTC is like a support when you need it supports you. 200+ ETH is incredible, it will rise more surely. DASH, ETC and STORJ are the ones I also keep. So you're good.

if you need any consulting about smart contract programming,
ask me in PM
I'll send a PM to you but are you a developer for smart contracts? I asked my university professor to open some software courses in the college for smart contracts. They said no, which is a pitty for us. We need opportunity to learn it.

I'll list the signs that I look for:
-If the team consists of people from the same country. -If the white paper prepared properly -If the road map prepared well -If they use a known escrow agency -If the teammates' history is clear
I check each of these criteria.

You can check with localbitcoins.com site their i think you can buy bitcoins without providing ID verification but the buying price can differ from cheap to costly it depends on the market fluctuations.
It's full of local scammers and if I were you I wouldn't use localbitcoins.com web site. I even pay unfair commisions to buy bitcoin with my credit card instead of localbitcoins.

BitBay claims to accept wire transfers without verification. I haven't tried them.
I tried bitpay to deposit dollars with wire transfer and then I saw their high commision when buying bitcoins. Then I cancelled that out. That's too much commision to buy bitcoin for a web site.

Damn this thread is pretty huge, im curious how much they made
They've made around 30-35 million dollars but after ICO, they really lost the community support. They couldn't save their promises. They didn't update community.

No, this is not right. They're not seizing bitcoins from users' accounts and they just warned people not to make transactions during 1 august.

I just follow btc developments this month. I see every day btc price up and down. Which is my question, what are the factors that affect the rising price of the btc? Whether shareholders btc, altcoin, or btc users themselves? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) It's totally speculative and depend on the demand and supply basically. If more people are willing to buy, the price goes up. The factors affecting the demand are very various and not one dimensional things.

Hey folks! I just wonder, what is with Bitcoin that until now it is still in it's peak and still unbeatable. Has not any one ever invented a new/other currency that matches the value of bitcoin? And if there would be What should it take for a new currency for instance to match the value level of bitcoin? Has anyone here ever thought that a new currency more superior than bitcoin could come out one day and bitcoin value would decrease or fall?
Brother it's not about new technologies or innovations or transaction speed ot network strength or anything. It's all about the strength of the bitcoin community. And none of the altcoins will be able to beat up bitcoin.

BTC up and down are actually good, If too big then not really good,... for me it is still very good. I am also trading that s the reason.
Overall BTC is up,... it seems only way up. BTC is better not to have big swing to be adopted by the world.
I turned back to usdt when bitcoin was $2,500 and I bought it back when it was $2,000. Then It came back to $2,700 and so I got more bitcoin. It was like arbitrage. Fluctuations are actually good for all of us.

I did not even think about it, because it's too early. I think when this time comes to this, we will already develop some reliable way to transfer bitcoins after death.
Me either, we don't know until when we will be alive. But we must not think about this situation because it only brings negativity to yourself. As myself, I will just teach them on how to cash out bitcoin and that's all. But it's up to them if they will learn on how to keep my bitcoins but we really can't tell on how this is going to happen. Personally I think it is important to teach them to keep the bitcoins, most of the time when someone gets money from a deceased familiar they spend it in something useless, so it is important to teach those that are going to receive our estate that when we pass away there are some things that is better to keep so they get even richer in the future, and one of those things is bitcoin. Forget all about it. We have two options. Find a lawyer that will sign a contract with you and have an access to your wallet in case of your death. The other one is that giving your wallet info to one of the family members.

Ive actually gained some free Bitcoin recently & converted them all to XRP.. I have high hopes for its future. It's also got a mass following with banks all over the world signing up! XRP is only around 20 cent a coin & it's in 3rd position on coincap! XRP market capital will start to rise alongside bitcoins. Even if XRP reaches $1 you will see a very healthy return!!! I've transfered a lot of coin into XRP in a week from this site if you want to get some before they start rising! It's a faucet which gives you coins every five minutes, not sure how they profit from it, but I love a freebie! http://freecryptobit.wordpress.comI'm holding onto my ripple since $0.02 and I won't sell them before we see $1 seriously. I trust the team because they will hire more developers who will work in asia region for ripple operations.

I think you can focus on both, I know a couple of people who actually have a real job and still manage to focus on bitcoins and altcoins too. They even are trading short sometimes and do long term trading too. It is just a matter of managing your time so you could divide the hours. And at least if you focus on both you also get to have your pay on both ways too.
Can do both things is a tough job of course. But when we can work with fullness then we can get satisfactory results, because then the benefits we get will be greater. I suggest that when we are unable to do this then do as well as possible !!! We have to focuss on both because none of these two is guaranteed to continue in the future. We could get fired or bitcoin could be dumped like crazy. So we need to conduct both at the same time.

Waiting verification from 20.03.2017... Today is 04.06.2017 Writed some times to support:"Answer: Please wait..." You waited almost 2.5 months. And you will probably wait much more than this. Because tether has serious problems in united states with banks. The subject was sent to the american courts already.

I'm not sure but probably yes. It shows the fibonacci lines of the ethereum and also potential movement regions. As far as I understand, it still has potential to rise.

I don't really care if localbitcoins is looting money but I will never use it again!
There are tons of scammers and they scammed my friend so bad. We contacted their team but they said the seller sent them proofs which are ps made.

I panic when I see coinmarketcap web site with red colors and I start to think like "Oh my god, I think I lost my all" because I make margin trade with leverage. This is very risky, with a small decline I can lose my all.

As the Bitcoin userbase expands, validating the entire blockchain naturally becomes more expensive.
Of course it does. But then two things can happen if BTC continues to thrive. either BTC solves this scalability problem and its possible for a mass adoption and usage as a real currency for comercial transactions or it doesnt and it come become more of a store of value asset where less transactions will be needed. That's right, but we still don't know what's gonna happen aftet segwit. We know we have two or three options but this uncertainty creates worries among the investors. I really expect harsh price fluctuations in the rest of the time until segwit.
