Bitcoin is open source, so its impossible to regulate. And even if somebody try it, where he want to starts? It has a market cap of billions of dollar. And i thing when it will be regulated, it will lose the biggest part of his value.
You can regulate open source projects to some extent. The reason Bitcoin can't be controlled is because of the decentralized ledger.

It's quite funny that Dogecoin actually made some history in. A fun token worthless

I will save them for a long time, I mean I forgot my password of my wallet.  Lips sealed
Hope you didn't have too many. I almost lost access to mine as well, but then remembered the password after several attempts.

So after having some looks at bitcoin mining and setting up nicehash on my pc (single gtx 970) to have a look at how it works (ofcourse I won't be able to make any profit because of power consumption), I wondered if buying an Antminer S9 and starting to mine at home with a powercost of 0,26$/KwH would be profitable or will I just lose my investment.

The Asic technology help a lot in mining but, if there is the possibility you should try with some free green energy, then the profits will be bigger.
How are you going to get "free" energy? If you're referring to solar, that's quite a pricey investment that doesn't break even for years.
124  Economy / Economics / Re: Banks offering only 1.3% interest rates for Savings Account on: November 22, 2017, 12:20:09 PM
If the investment would be in BTCs it would worth a lot, but as it's fiat better to stay away... 1,3% is already too low compared to the profit we make just by holding Bitcoins with the aggravating that fiat loses price each new year. At first impression it can look a good investment as you just let your money resting at the bank with full guarantees of return after X time. But it's not.

Better to invest in BTCs or in a piece of land where you can buy cheap and build or produce something to generate income.
The interest on bank deposits is guaranteed, while Bitcoin is very risky. That's why it's so low. But inflation considered only people who don't understand money would save in bank accounts instead of buying other assets of varying liquidity.

Yes and meanwhile the banks use people's money to make decent profit for them and share only little percentage... I believe if there were more concurrency of banks it would be better even with fiat investments. This way banks should compete among themselves to offer the best rates for investors.
The problem here is that most people don't know anything about finance, so they aren't even capable of conceiving the benefits of compounding interest. That's why so few people actually invest. As long as this doesn't change banks won't ever get into a situation where they have to offer better service either.
125  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there any way to make free money without airdrop? on: November 22, 2017, 12:16:40 PM
Hello Everyone?

Hope you are doing good.  Airdrop is a very good process to make a community and make some money. I am student , when i get some time then i try to get airdrop. But without airdrop, is there anyway to earn money without investment?

Please kindly inform me.

Thank You Everyone. Have a good day
There is no free money.

But you can earn some money through bounty campaigns via translations, advertising, and other tasks. Check the Service forum in the Bitcoin Market place and the Bounty forum in the Altcoin marketplace.

Well if you able to survive with the earnings from one single asic, s9 sure go ahead, but the thing is you need cheap electricity and ROI period is about 10-11 months, atleast this were the last reports i had from people wich had invested with bitcoin at 1200 dollars. Since the price has raised a lot and difficult as well it may be lower months, but the most people does do trading wich is a bit more risky but wont need months to recover the investment. I had considered invest a bit into the bitcoin mining, but the thing is the cost to handle and get a decent income into Europe is an expensive investment due to energy.
You can't even compete in most of Europe since the prices are often upward of 20 cents per kilowatt hour.

I'm already coming back on waves , cause I made profits in the past with waves and let's be honest it's a huge project. Also the price is still good , if you look on btc chart , this is a perf chance for us to entry.
To be fair, the last perfect entry was a few weeks ago when it dipped to around $2.
128  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves Price Soon on: November 22, 2017, 11:58:57 AM
Waves is becoming one of my greatest disappointments in crypto.  There is no reason why it should be languishing but it just sits there and does nothing.  It has great tech, a rich platform, and an energetic community but still nothing happens with the price.  I'm still holding and leasing my coins but I'm disappointed in the price action.
You clearly haven't looked into Waves deep enough and don't really seem to understand markets either...

Waves doesn't have great tech or a rich platform right now, those things are still on the agenda for the coming months.
129  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who is buying WAVES? on: November 22, 2017, 11:57:25 AM
With its NG, DEX, smart contracts, ..., waves is one of the most promising altcoins, and one of the few alts which is actually worth a damn, but surprisingly hasn't still acquired a billion marketcap.

IMHO it's one of the best opportunities right now.

Hodl. Just relax, eventually it will double. I am sure of it.
Double?

LoL

It will go at least 4-5x in a few months, after it gets its huge updates in near future.
Even 4-5x seems conservative, at least by the end of next year. With all the upgrades that are planned by Q1 2018 the Waves platform would end up superior to Ethereum. Then it would just be a question of whether or not people choose to move over.
The only danger here is that this project is made by Russians Cheesy but it is brilliant, yes.
Ethereum was made by Russians too, and it has been a successful project. So, not so dangerous.  Grin
SONM is made by Russians too, and they seem very diligent.

Its really hard to compete with the big dogs these days. Once upon a time, in the early days, I remember when anyone could partake. But now it is very hard to turn a profit.

So even when u use nicehash or a mining pool, it's very hard to get your money back?
It's not very hard, if your electricity is very cheap. But it's not very economical unless you plan on building up a massive mining farm.
131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves Price Soon on: November 21, 2017, 06:36:20 PM
Depends on how "soon" you are asking.

There are a lot of features planned for Q1 2018 that would put the Waves platform ahead of Ethereum from a utility perspective.

So it could at the very least start closing in on Ethereum's MC sometime next year.
132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BTC is dead. The plan is a shift to Bitcoin Cash. on: November 21, 2017, 06:33:20 PM
BTC's death is the death of the entire market. BTC is the only rival, Ethereum.
Not necessarily, bad things happen in real life.
New things are coming and this first wave raised awareness about Blockchain, and its possibilities. In the next few years market will be flooded with new coins, forks..
Another thing - never say never.
I would actually be surprised if Bitcoin stayed forever. Surely people used to believe that sea shells were the best currency around, and now most people don't even know that they were used as such.

In the future not only Bitcoin will be replaced, but cryptocurrencies as a whole. But who knows how many decades, centuries or even millenia that will take.
133  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think bitcoin ever be safe for any investment ? on: November 21, 2017, 06:31:19 PM
for me bitcoin is more safer than anyone to invest your money.. but there's a lot of people have a different purposes they used bitcoin for their financial needs like paying bills etc. its up to you how you managed your bitcoin you can also see if some investment are promising or not..
As of now, I’m very sure that Bitcoin is one most safest Investment one can ever make and earn huge from it. It’s not forex trading where you will end up losing your whole money if you’re a novice trader. One thing I like about bitcoin is that you’re always free to do whatever you wish.

If you invest into Bitcoin, you can withdraw that money anytime you wish, but as for other form Investments, you can’t withdraw them until you reach a certain rate that’s meant for withdrawal.
You can lose your money much much faster when trading crypto compared to ForEx. Unless you're talking about leveraged trades, then it starts to even out.

135  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think bitcoin ever be safe for any investment ? on: November 20, 2017, 08:06:04 PM
Yes, I think it is 90% safe.
yes you're right it is 90% sure that investing through bitcoin is safe. But ithink it depends on the site you want to invest  cuase now adays there are some ponzi investment site that also promising like a classified site. which is clone investment site. So i suggest if you want to invest in any investment site .review first to make sure that your funds is 90% safe. .
You should stop pulling numbers out of your rear. What does it even mean for Bitcoin to be "90% safe"? Doesn't really make any sense without any additional information. And Bitcoin isn't "very safe", it's "extremely risky". Sure it's very promising, but that doesn't mean that it can't die almost over night. So you need a back up plan for that scenario if you really want to be safe.

after all these news over the last weekend, im glad i didnt panicked and react to sell my btc

Congratulations on not falling for the BCash propaganda.
137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who is buying WAVES? on: November 20, 2017, 07:44:31 PM
One annoying thing about Waves DEX is that currently it has low volume and at least WAV/BTC, ETH/WAV, WAV/EUR and WAV/USD pairs have sell walls from apparently same individual as all the pairs/walls have approx. 1500WAV available. Not sure if it's meant to regulate the fluctuation or to control the market.

Decentralized exchanges have not yet gained popularity and therefore there is not enough liquidity. The new version can raise the popularity of Waves.

We certainly need those liqudity so values can go higher. I was a super Waves fan but after some time I changed to ETH. So I'm buying eth rather than waves
Why would you buy Ethereum when it already increased so much in such a short time? There's nothing special coming to Ethereum anytime soon at this point.

It's not the first, unless you mean first "commercial" or something like that. There are a few universities that have had neural network chips for a little while already.
139  Economy / Economics / Re: Regulating Bitcoin on: November 20, 2017, 07:38:08 PM
In the system and there is no control over each transaction. Bitcoin is similar this one .it is open source and nobody can regulating here when you are stabbing in bitcoin and not print like dollars this and made by people to increase or digress are the same .bitoin still bitcoin nobody can can regulate here....
Bitcoin cannot be regulated but definitely we as users can be regulated through a law as we are all bound to follow it, otherwise we will be dealt accordingly. There is no way to stop bitcoin if we continue to support it because the government also listen to us and they will serve what is the interest of the majority and there is nothing wrong we see on bitcoin but it can only help us to ease our transaction online and also it can give us a chance to invest.
They only serve the interests of the majority if there is absolutely no other way around for them. They serve their own interests first, everything else comes after and only if it doesn't hinder their own interests.

I think there are better alternatives out there to be considered before Waves, especially with Ethereum gaining momentum and having many more developers than Waves. It might be a good coin to secure short term profits, but i wouldn't hold it for 2-3 years.
Waves is more promising in the long term than Ethereum, given that Ethereum is already quite big and won't really be implemented any groundbreaking new features anytime soon.
