121  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC vs USD - Which one is better? on: May 24, 2019, 12:54:35 PM
These guys have some interesting stuff going on here https://cryptotradernews.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-vs-usd-for-storing-value-purposes/

Today, I would personally pick USD as it can be used world wide and for a variety of purposes. However, if BTC were to stop being JUST a speculative asset I would contemplate making the switch. I like being in control of my cash without having to depend on some greedy bank!

Thoughts?
I would choose bitcoins considering the growth rate and the benefits of being with them. USD is a stable currency backed by the United States which makes only the peoples from United States of America use USD as a mean of payment but bitcoins are been used globally and we can transact with any individual in any corner of the world with bitcoins.

We can probably not trade with every individual with USD and we need to convert USD to local cash in order to make trades in other respective nations. Also holding our capital in bitcoins is a good option as with the increase in price, our capital too is increased which as compared to USD is not found.
122  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH Right Now: Will Do A Bull Run Too? on: May 24, 2019, 12:33:21 PM


Eth is possessing a great promise and potential among all the possible contenders to the throne of Bitcoin. With a good dev team behind and with the leadership of a young Russian-Canadian programmer named Vitalik Buterin, it was also a recipient of the 2017 cryptocurrency bull run. I remember that Eth reached more than $1,000 back then before dropping dramatically.

Now that Bitcoin is excitedly showing its bull run, many Eth holders like me are wishing that it can do its dance upwards as well. Yes, it is showing some good movements but not with the same intensity as Bitcoin.

Will Eth get benefited by the current strong showing of Bitcoin or will do its own slow like snail move?
Check from the time you posted this till now and you will see that there was a little bull run. From the photo you have posted the price of ETH was still around $209, but check the price today it has gotten to $243 as of now I'm writing this. On 20th (Monday) I was monitoring the price as it smashed lower resistances and hit $274 - $278 level. It bounced back to $235 and still got back to $260 within few hours. There have also been news everywhere that apart from BTC, ETH is another coin that will also see the bull run. So you're right about a Bull run. Prices are just going slow and steady.
123  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [HELP] distribution of tokens on: May 24, 2019, 12:11:15 PM
what is the most interesting and safe way to distribute token example (erc20) so that it does not have high dumping in exchange?
Pump and dumps are illegal in regulated crypto exchanges, except the unregulated fields that creates the chance for these people to pump and dump any coin of their choice. I don't think there is any way you can stop these pump and dumpsters, they will always be able to penetrate in and do their work and escape with it and the reason for this is because the crypto market is not being regulated.

So they don't have to worry about the authorities catching them. If cryptocurrency is being regulated, then they will all be caught easily. I only mercy for the investors who fall victims. But anyone can still take advantage of these pump and dumps if they are smart enough.

The impact is not more powerful but the implementation will really gives the confidence about their security by the help of k y c method and I think it performing well and it definitely needed for this gambling field otherwise we cannot know if the problem is happening or not for our security
Well KYC is an antimony laundering procedure or a part of the AML which is being a part of many gambling sites to make sure the money is not involved in illegal activities not allowed by the jurisdiction. The exchange of course knows the gambler who is paying the money from his wallet to the exchange/another gambler but the gambling site requires this as well for it makes the system transparent.
125  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What kind of poker player are you? on: May 24, 2019, 11:12:57 AM
Poker is the type of game the more you play the more you would learn, as i am still a newbie in poker, so i am a hit and run type of player. The second one would be for experienced type of players.
I am of course a learner and doer. I learn by doing Poker which means that the more you play at Poker, the more you develop your techniques to get over the problems and the tricks and the hurdles that are always there for a beginner. So yeah, I have not been very much into Poker but the past few months have been pretty challenging after I started the game.
126  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO is popular, what do you think? Will you participate? on: May 24, 2019, 10:41:51 AM
if it's about profit, I will definitely participate. but I won't be in a hurry and buy all the coins. I will verify and make my own analysis. even though the IEO is in a large exchange though, I will do it. Not all projects that do IEO are good, so I will be vigilant.
That is what like an investor thinks about investment in an asset with some profit prospects. IEO on best exchanges have been great deal and the first IEO which was conducted on Binance Launchpad made 4X returns which means that Binance IEOs are great place to invest your money and yeah, you can make great money by doing that though you have to be careful about the time the IEO is scheduled.
127  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What trading strategy do you guys use? on: May 24, 2019, 10:10:53 AM
People hurry to make profit, when you hurry you make more mistakes. So my trading advice for others is take it easy and slowly, don`t be greedy. Little profit is better than no profit or loss. That`s the first thing you should learn, to control yourself and your money. Second, maybe more important is never trade with all of your money, all in is always risking a lot and if you don`t succeed you will lose your amount pretty fast. Divide your bankroll, diversify, always have an exit plan.
When you are going slowly you will have time for learning, time to notice some things and see what others are doing.
My trading strategy has always been very simple. I try to make use of the down cost of investment offered by the bear market. The general perception is that it is very risky to invest in crypto when the market is bearish but to be honest, that is actually the time when you enjoy the low cost of investment and if you are able to minimize your cost of investment, you are the real businessman. So I love to take away profits as soon as they are above my set limit.
128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: People who gamble are degenerates, change my mind. on: May 24, 2019, 09:40:23 AM
I would say crypto is kinda gambling aswell currently , nobody knows how it will turn out at the end . But ofcourse crypto compared to gambling have less risk , but still..
crypto is more predictable than the outcome of gambling because there are guides in crypto . There are also signs  and you can use them to be able to decide . They can somehow increase your chances of winning but it also depend on the coins that you are hodling  .

Speaking about gambling thats really big business and i think there is no chance that it will be banned or closed .
Depends on a gambling . Some are small and some are big  and it also depend on your country or on other factors if it will be banned or not  .
If you look at the data, and such a wide and high rate of crypto adoption, you might probably change your mindset about crypto. It is the future of currency and has been in wide use in the market. It might be banned in many countries due to their weak financial situation but it is very widely used in the US and Canada and yeah, it is expanding.
129  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's Your Top Altcoin List? on: May 24, 2019, 09:03:53 AM
I have a couple of altcoins in my portfolio right now: ETH, LTC, TRON and EOS, I think these coins should show excellent growth in the future
My altcoin list is long but I will mention my favorite coins here which are ETH, BNB, Ripple, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash. These altcoin have been really good at gaining value in the market lately and they are also available at low cost which means you have two benefits. That being said, you should be quick to invest in the crypto market or you will miss out the train.
130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best IEOs and IEO bounties on: May 24, 2019, 07:53:51 AM
Hi all, what do you think are some of the best IEOs coming up and are there any good IEO bounties? Not a bounty but I did make a nice $60 on trias airdrop
What? IEO bounties?

IEO means the new crypto project will be promoted by an exchange so in that case no need of bounties I guess.

Only ICO has bounties and for that you can visit bounties section to find one for you.
That is not totally true, there are still some good IEOs that still see the usefulness of marketing through bounty hunters, although most of them rely solely on the promotion they get from the exchange platform while some still employ bounty assistance.
I think this is about IEO promotion through airdrops and bounty campaigns and I think it is not really needed because IEO is something that is taken care of by the exchange that is conducting your IEO. The exchange take care of the marketing thing and the startup does not have to worry about the promotional campaigns and marketing at all.
131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 1-Month Investment: ETH? BCH? on: May 24, 2019, 07:12:20 AM
Hey guys, new to the forum!
Thinking of doing a short-term investment for fun, about 1 month or so. Was thinking I should buy either Etherum or Bitcoin Cash. I use Gemini so not all coins are available. Wanted to get some opinions from you vets Smiley
If you want to make a one month investment, then you should try other part of crypto than just hodling your coin because it is very possible that the value of the coin might drop below the price you actually bought it in one month time and you will end up wasting your time incurring more lost to yourself. The best way to earn from crypto hodling is on long term basis, though you can try other parts like trading on exchanges, it's possible to make a lot of profit trading.

The truth is that I read your post and I can't find anything that is unique about your project that should be the selling point to investors, we now have a lot of competitors in the market and investors are very careful before making investment in any project, this is why it is good to sell to them something unique that can't be found in other project, anyways try moving the topic to the service section of the forum in order to get the desired reply.
133  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are We Going Back to $7,000? on: May 24, 2019, 06:14:18 AM




After a strong showing of energy getting back into the $8,000 range, bitcoin right now is getting its pack backward and is standing at $7,745.49    based on the CoinMarketCap figures. The market is now on red as almost all altcoins got no choice but to follow the lead of bitcoin. Of course, we are all hoping that this is just a temporary little dip and that tomorrow the bullish stand will be the prominent trait in the market.

Do you think this little dip can be the best opportunity to add more bitcoin into one's portfolio? Or should we wait some more time as there is that possibility that bitcoin can get back or retrace into the $7,000 level? What is your guess?
Well I think this have been happening for a while now, but I don't think we are going to see the price of bitcoin go down to $7000, rather it's going to go back up, the price has been fluctuating which makes it a very good time for traders to make lot of money for themselves by swapping bitcoin normal coin and stable coin in the crypto market, the truth is that what would be a downfall to one persons is always an advantage to another, this is why it is good for us to learn how to take advantage of the market to be able to make profit at all time.
134  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which unique factor makes crypto exchange a reliable choice to start trading? on: May 24, 2019, 05:42:04 AM
There is no best exchange in all terms. Form my watching small traders like binance because it is easy with huge pairs of coins , no verification required and mobile app.
Big investors choose another exchanges like bitmex , bitstamp , bitfinex or bittrex ...etc.

choose what terms you want to take into consideration  Smiley
Thanks for letting them know this mate, instead of people focusing on what exactly will make their trade successful at a particular time, they are busy hailing security as if exchanges have now turned to wallet, we are talking about money here, and they are talking security.

I am not saying security is not right, but the first thing is the features of the exchange that will allow one make money immediately one gets to trade, what is there to be secured if money is not made? Will hackers still zero balance after losing a trade? What is more important to me is volume and the pairs available, then I look for how to protect my coins myself against hackers.
I think based on the user base of the digital exchange, we can really classify exchanges and Binance having more than 90% users would be the best. And the reviews about Binance have not been so bad lately. In addition, they tried to cover the loss of its users after the hack which was something that maximized their popularity and yeah, their user base is rising.
135  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I LOST OVER 10 BTC IN GAMBLING IN 2018 on: May 24, 2019, 05:14:53 AM
Spending what one can afford to loss is truly the real fact that needs to be followed with gambling.~~

Absolutely correct becasue such an unfortunate individual or gambler will never go after his or her lost. The very big problem of gamblers is haven lost to the system and try to recover the losses thereby incur more losses in the process. I have always gamble with what i can afford to loss.
Well, first to OP was lost over 10 bitcoin how come that huge amount was lost maybe there is something of his mind chasing lost or he wanted to recover which turns to worst.
^ Yeah this is the right and that is the fact, every time you gamble you must set an amount that you can afford and hopefully not to lose but you wanted to win. Being self-oriented you can handle how to control your self of being greediness and think it over that you may come back in the next day if you feel that your not luck on that day.
Well if it's lost 10 BTC it won't lose the whole amount in a single day it must be losing it due to the consistency as well if it lost the match then it has placed the bet with a higher amount than the previous one because to recover all the lost amounts. In the recovering of previously losing bet amount, you would lose more when you try to cover them by playing bigger bets.

So it is not the best way to re-earn the money by consistently placing bets. But due to this consistent playing makes you addicted to gambling and it is difficult to accept it mentally. Once you started losing it in gambling then you have to take a break from it and after that day you have to try your luck. Otherwise, you will keep losing the amount and get frustrated.
136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: New casino vs old and trusted one on: May 23, 2019, 11:27:16 AM
The new casino has different kinds of methods to play Casino but in the traditional way we can only use the same methods to to gamble that is the difference between them otherwise both are trustable in today situation and no one will easily fraud you in both these type of gambling.
Provided that you are a sharp and wise gambler to have a control and better quality of judgment is needed to deal with it in both situations. Whether it is a new online casino result will be yours and you will accept those results. If there happens something unfair you can complain in traditional casinos but the online platform is acceptable in both fair and unfair cases because you cannot do anything against them.
137  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin – Now at DECISION POINT!! :O on: May 23, 2019, 10:49:55 AM
I will say this is the most critical and difficult time for the cryptocurrency to make text right or left if it was going in a wrong way then everything was totally down but if it started Fire to the moon then no one will stops the development of Bitcoin and changes will surely make the milestone in this year.
There is no hurry and no worry about the crypto currency especially the Bitcoin because the market seems super fine and the price movement shows bullish trend that will happen completely in the upcoming few weeks or may be months. We do not know exactly what will happen next but the price shift reflects a bull run and we all traders are super excited about it and new traders as well.
138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about the gambling site's having a promotion? on: May 23, 2019, 10:18:27 AM
Hello guys,

What do you guys think about the gambling site's promotion? Does the promotion of the site help you playing their games?
What would be the best that the site had to implement in their site like loss back where you'll get a percentage of the money you lose after playing or receiving percentage of your money that you bet?

Share your thoughts about the gambling sites where they have those kind of system that the gamblers can benefit from it.

Anyway, I am not planning to have a gambling site where I just want to find a gambling site where you can benefit from their site even if it just small but it can help the gambling site and more players will come to play and the gambling site's traffic would also increase.


They have a platform, they need players, so how are they going to get players to play on their platform, of course, you need promotion massive promotion, you must get across how good your platform is and how fast you pay and gambling sites should do this continuously because the competition is very stiff and everything lies on the promotion.
Promotions for the business to be well introduce, attracting new players needs to have something to offer and that's why business owners have to step up and comes up with nice ideas to promote their business, afterwards it will be paid off when player already get inside and start playing and be loyal this promotions will generate profits for the site.
If you want to get your business boomed and if you want to increase your sale or user base, you have to do things like advertisements and test drives like Elon Musk did in case of Tesla. So yeah, this is not a bad thing for a website to advertise. Even the companies with monopoly advertise to make sure the constant influx of costumers on the face of any disruption.
139  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Can $50 Million From Banks Add To The Crypto Industry? on: May 23, 2019, 09:34:19 AM
Time to time, we big financial players diving into the cryptocurrency industry, now big banks around the world want to invest $50 Million into cryptocurrency. According to this news... https://www.cryptoinformers.info/news/143-banks-set-to-invest-50-million-in-digital-cash-settlement-project

What do you think $50 million will add to this multi-billion industry?
Well it depends on where the money is being inputted in the crypto market, one thing we should know is that we have so many coin in the market and this coins differs in volume, this is why it's very possible for that money to have huge impact in the crypto space especially when it's been put into a coin with low trade volume. Though it's not going to be of much impact to coins as bitcoin and ethereum because this are the coins with the largest market volume in the crypto space and a few millions of dollars can't shake that.
140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happened to dgtx ?? on: May 23, 2019, 08:34:09 AM
So I recently knew about this altcoin and I've been saving up some cash specifically to purchase it.. then I noticed a sudden drop in price from 0.12 cents to 0.023 cents

What happened with the project?? Is it still safe to purchase this coin??
The one question I am going to ask you is why did you choose to invest in this coin out of all the coins we have available in the crypto market, what is your bases on choosing a coin for investment, are you working on what someone told you about the coin and the price in the future or are you working based on what the project has to offer to the crypto community as a whole because just judging by the price of a coin can't tell you it's potentials.
