1221  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum Price Analysis: Bear Market Ahead on: October 12, 2019, 02:32:46 PM
Ethereum is fighting on the line after its recent Bearish trend, after a long-continued Bullish trend previous month. Ethereum which is globally designated at #2 in the cryptocurrency market is trying to pull itself back to the $200 mark.

Read More: TheCoinRepublic

There is no denying to it that Ethereum as number 2 in coinmarketcap is having a difficulty in breaking the 200$ mark. Last month it breaks the 200$ mark but in few days the drop continues and until now it is having difficulty in pushing it's price upward.

If it can bounce back in the remaining months left for 2019 then it will be exciting to look forward and hoping that I can gain few profits before the New Year comes.

Scamming announcement CO-DEX exchange platform, here is announced Link:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5190786.0


hello bounty hunter, check above link CO-DEX exchange scamming project so don't spend your time. I see lot of people promoting their project so stop promote and leave this project.

There bounty Link here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5190618.0


Note Edit today:
CO-DEX exchange is a scam project look like clear but i can't understand that, why bounty manager not stop yet?
That's means if DT member will give red for Scamming project promoting then everyone will be stop it..

This is very alarming also especially that there are still users who blindly support the bounty campaign without checking the credibility of the project.

But upon checking the bounty thread there is a big possibility that it was being hyped or bump only as the participants are mostly newbies but it will be best also if this kind of thread will be close/remove.
1223  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Telegram (TON) project has been halted by SEC on: October 12, 2019, 12:46:18 PM
https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2019-212

Should we assume the project is dead?

I was about to reserve $500 worth of GRAM tokens on Crypterium or some exchange, but at this point i think it's not advisable.
What do you suggest ?

This is bad, I guess they need to settle it immediately or else this project will be considered as dead. It was stated that they it was not registered and they were able to raise 1.7$ billion dollar for less than 2 years as they started the fund raising last January 2018.

I am wondering, why for almost 2 years the SEC didn't release it earlier and they only release it yesterday "October 11, 2019".
(The complaint alleges that defendants failed to register their offers and sales of Grams, which are securities, in violation of the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933.). If they can solve this issue , I am pretty sure they can continue the project smoothly.
1224  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO becomes successful = ETH will moon? on: October 12, 2019, 09:44:58 AM
as we see now many project are using IEO system to collect funds from investors and I feel IEO is very popular at the moment, besides that I also see a lot of IEO that are currently successful, therefore I am sure that the price of ETH will definitely increase too if many project use blockchain from Ethereum (ERC-20). because as we know in 2017, where ETH prices increase very high due to ICO very popular and successful, so if this year IEO will experience the same thing as ICO in 2017 (popular and successful) then it will make ETH prices increase again (bull run).



Eth price right now didn't pump much because the big investors are favoring in bitcoin. Even if there are plenty IEO's that became successful this year, it is still not enough to push the eth price upward.

The difference between last 2017 and this year is very big as we are nearly at the bottom of bear market this year and last 2017 is the the peak of bull run so we cannot really see the Eth price to moon this year.
1225  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers, the biggest crypto problem on: October 12, 2019, 08:43:41 AM
Just like i used to include in my points that scammers is the main problem crypto is facing presently i come across this news on the internet today about how scammers keep on contrarily influence the digital currencies. As indicated by Changpeng Zhao, the CEO and originator of Binance, there are in excess of 1,500 Binance con artists on the expert informal community LinkedIn. The quantity of Binance scammers on LinkedIn can in the end arrive at 1,605. Now imagine how big scammers are damaging crypto

Full news here
https://usethebitcoin.com/beware-of-crypto-scammers-1500-scammers-impersonate-binance-on-linkedin/


It is the biggest problem that we cannot fully stop even in fiat scammers are rampant but in crypto currencies they are more active as they have plenty of scheme on how to steal the others money.

That is only one of their scheme, copy the image of big exchange or reputable project and they will do their best to exploit money from inexperience crypto users.
1226  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does trading fees really matter ? on: October 12, 2019, 06:17:18 AM
Most of the exchanges have a minimal trading fees of about 0.25%
I see many people discussing trading fees here and there and that how high the trading fees is.
Does 0.25% really make a huge difference if you are earning at least more than 2% ?

If you are earning only then trading fees will not matter at all but once you are trading there is no guarantee that you will be earning only, there will be times that you will loss also and because of it trading fees will really matter.

Every single dollar that you can save, it will be added to your profit therefore many are looking for an exchange that offers a lower trading fees compare to others.
1227  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC to ETH Address on: October 12, 2019, 02:42:02 AM
If BTC is sent to an ETH address, what will happen to the BTC? Will the BTC reach the address and wallet? Or definitely lost?

If lost, how to retrieve the BTC?


I tried it also in our local exchange, sending btc to eth address and this is the error that I get. "Please input a valid email, phone #, name or BTC address
".

But I am not that sure with other wallet whether the transaction will push through or not because if it will push through then your money will surely be lost and cannot be recovered anymore. It is considered as burn, so it's better that you should triple check everything to avoid this kind of mistake to happen.
1228  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: p2pb2b exchange top 1? on: October 12, 2019, 02:12:22 AM
Hello people, today p2pb2b exchange just gain 55% from volume and reach top 1 on coinmarketcaps
https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/ and beat binance

what do you think about think exchange?
is this volume fake or real?

They are top 2 right now and binance is top 4 base on coinmarketcap, I am familiar with this exchange as I have used it and I saw that this exchange are faking their volume at that time but I am not that sure if it is the case right now.

Being in top 5 is a big accomplishment for an exchange already but I am not sure also how the coinmarketcap is basing their ranking. It will be bad also if they just put that certain exchange in top 5 even if they are faking their volume.
1229  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Libra partner drop out on: October 12, 2019, 01:10:29 AM
Visa, mastercard, ebay, paypal, drop out from libra..
will libra still continue ...? why one by one partner liba drop out.? https://twitter.com/coindesk/status/1182747730248118280?s=21

I guess the project has been pressured by the governments or big banks that are against the launch of this project and this project will likely to be pulled out before it can launch or the missing individuals will be filled out by other entities.

There is a little chance that libra will still continue the project but if they still insist to continue it then they need to fill out the missing spots that backed out one by one. Finding a partner is not easy so the chance of the launch is very low base on what is happening.
1230  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you sell your entire crypto right now with 500 percent profit? on: October 11, 2019, 02:35:41 PM
I am really curious about this question. To be clear, if there would be an opportunity to sell your tokens and make x5 right here and right now in exchange for promise to never invest in crypto again. How many people are ready to sell their tokens/coins at the moment and never come back?

It's a tough decision to decide because even if we will be able to x5 our money in an instant we still have the consequences to never come back again.

I would never sell my tokens/coins if this will be the choices because I better wait for my chance to x5 my investment and continue to invest in crypto currencies.
1231  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are You Doing This? on: October 11, 2019, 11:43:38 AM
I want to ask all of you, do you share or give very private things (private key, passphrase, password and else) of Bitcoin to your family? I ask like this because I think if something bad happens to us (I personally hope it doesn't happen), it would be better if we pass down all the things from bitcoin that we have to our families. For example, when we have an accident that makes us comatose state (I hope it won't happen) at the hospital and we need medical expenses, it would be better if our wife or children can take money from the bitcoin that we have to use as our medical expenses.

I personally bequeath all my bitcoin knowledge to my family. I told them my bitcoin assets, how I made money from bitcoin, and also told them how to access them. All of this I did so that all of my bitcoin assets could be useful for my family. What about you guys, do you guys do the same with me?

I didn't give my private keys to my family as I am not thinking of dying yet but if time will dictate about my life then I guess my funds will be lost as no one of my family knows about my work and to my private keys.

I've been thinking of it also many times but whatever happen to me, I guess it will be the end of my investment also. And I didn't explain also to my family on how to use crypto currencies therefore they will have difficulty also if I just give them my private keys and will tell them to withdraw all the money there if I die someday.
1232  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin coins are losing popularity? on: October 11, 2019, 10:38:35 AM
Bitcoin is an online currency.  Even if started with a lower price.  Now its value is beyond the reach of ordinary people. But, nowadays, it seems that Bitcoin is losing its popularity.Because, not receiving validity in low income countries. It may be the main reason.

Bitcoin dominance this year is very high this year, I wonder what is the basis of your statement. Even if it is beyond the reach of ordinary people but it doesn't mean that we cannot afford it.

We can buy whatever amount we like, it's not like we need to buy 1 bitcoin or more. We can choose how much we like to stock or it can be your saving if you have spare money then you can put it in bitcoin and few years from now, you can see how much is your savings worth. 
1233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Bitcoin market dominance rising fast? on: October 11, 2019, 08:35:09 AM
Over the past months, Bitcoin has been rising in market dominance at a fast pace. Altcoins have been on a constant decline in price ever since the bear market began back in 2018. They've been the ones which suffered the most, while Bitcoin has obtained greater prominence within the crypto market.

Which is why, it wonder me wonder why Bitcoin's market dominance have been rising so fast? What could be the cause of this? Will altcoins die soon, as a result of Bitcoin dominating the whole market? Or will they still survive?

So far, Bitcoin has gained the attention of people within the mainstream world, especially since it's one of the most limited cryptocurrencies in supply with an outstanding development team. The Lightning Network is its most interesting feature yet, leaving many wondering if it will render altcoins obsolete. If this indeed happens, then Bitcoin would effectively centralize the whole crypto market. What are your thoughts about this? Huh

This happening is not normal but with the continuous dominance of bitcoin the other currencies are struggling and some are dying or the team members are leaving the project.

This year, the bitcoin dominance is very high. There is only one reason for it, the big whales are supporting bitcoin compare to other currencies out there therefore the alt-coins were left behind. Let's see if it will continue or other big investors will favor to alt-coins this coming 2020.
1234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if you can have a dinner with Mr Satoshi on: October 11, 2019, 07:29:44 AM
You’re invited to have dinner with Mr Buffett Mr/Mrs Satoshi. What would you want to ask his/her opinions?

I would love to ask about his/her views about whether he/she is satisfied with all the hard fork soft fork ICO airdrop masternode that’s going on, I think it would blew his/her mind to even imagining what we had done to the crypto with him/her absence for so many years. And I can imaging it would be a very wonderful dinner that’s for anyone.

If I will be given the chance to have a dinner with Mr Satoshi, the first thing that I will ask for Mr genius would be. Why you launch your project without giving your identity as the creator of it?

Are you hiding something? Or you are worried that the project won't succeed and will fail in the end? And now that the project has gain so much attention and the demand is keep on coming. Are you planning to come back and make a good update to your project?
1235  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stop Worrying about the Bitcoin Price on: October 11, 2019, 06:56:40 AM
The Bitcoin price certainly affects many things. It can help us gauge adoption along with other metrics as well as the sentiment of people who are currently invested.

Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme. It is the currency of the internet designed as a super hard form of money to challenge many status quos.

Even if we were to pay more attention to the price. Many of the people worrying don't know the basics of TA. I'm here to tell you that if you own any amount of BTC you are riding a rollercoaster that is affected by adoption, politics, whales and many other factors out of your control. The one thing you can count on is the math, The fact that is was the first, the 21million cap, it's security, and the torrent of frustration it brings older businesses who have grown lazy and abuse the masses(banks).

From a TA standpoint (i'm a noob with a background in music but i've been studying and doing paper trades for years now). Bitcoin has been consolidating for a few months after a pullback from a 1 year high. The fact that it's been trading in the range its at means that the whales and traders who bought in late can't affect the die hard HODLERS who were already in the market in early 2019. You can find articles explaining the demographics of Bitcoin holders. Those who bought in at 10k+ were the ones selling.

Other than that we have some whales playing in the ocean.

Remember this is about change and technology.

If you believe in the ideals money is more than likely to follow.

Be well!

For traders price is everything but if you are a long term hodler it is best that you should not worry about the price and you can just monitor your investment either weekly or monthly is enough.

As you have said, bitcoin price is affected by many factors which is out of our hand especially if we are just a small investors but if you are wise then you can just ride the flow of the market and you will surely profit in the end. Worrying will not bring us profit.
1236  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dictaorships & how cryptocurrencies can bypass their control on: October 11, 2019, 03:17:30 AM
One thing about authoritarian/totalitarian governments is that they want to control all aspects of the county that they currently reside in with an iron fist. As a result, the people there are most likely restricted to following the current dictator or group of people in charge and are unwilling to step out of line due to the fear of consequences. Cryptocurrency can probably bypass that control Considering that a majority of places with dictators can still access the Internet via a VPN or other means they can use cryptocurrencies.
   
An example would be in China, considering that their government controls its economy and has a lot of restrictions on what people can and cannot do with the currency (RMB) that they use. Cryptocurrencies can bypass that control as they are not controlled by any government and can keep the identity of its users a secret when they do transactions this can result in people using cryptocurrency being able to freely trade without any restrictions on how much they use. As a result, cryptocurrencies allow people in oppressed regions to become freer as they are not restricted in terms of money and trade.


You cannot bypass once the government will control all aspects of the country or there is an dictatorship that is happening. Everything can be seen by the government if they are going to do so,like for example they totally banned crypto currencies then they will surely create a group that will check everything about crypto currencies.

That is how powerful the government is, once all the government will totally banned crypto currencies then we don't have other option but to follow it or else we will be jailed or executed.
1237  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is irreversible: strength and weakness on: October 11, 2019, 01:56:47 AM


One of the most important feature of cryptocurrency is its being irreversible. One the coin is sent, the only way for it to be back to the sender is if the receiver will do the same thing in reverse. Now, in cases of hacks, scams and frauds, it means that you better forget what you already lost as there is no way for you to recover the lost coins.

In other words, once you click the send button there is no turning back. I know that a lot of us are actually considering this a major advantage of Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency for that matter because unlike PayPal there can be no refund requests to happen.

Therefore when you are a victim of a theft, expect no one to be able to help you in recovering the coins. As one author said it, the bitcoin genie cannot be put back into the blockchain bottle.

I am wondering, can we not devise an effective and special technology that can be utilize in case of hacks or frauds? Given the advances of cryptocurrency and the blockchain we are experiencing right now, is it even possible?





This is how unique bitcoin is and it didn't devise any special technology to counter any hacks or frauds so everyone has a freedom to do with their assets.

This is only one of disadvantages of bitcoin but because of it, we were given the freedom also to use our assets wisely and securely if possible but for the black hat hackers. This is their big opportunity to earn a good profit if they can steal without being notice by the authority.

But I love the current bitcoin right now,even if it has disadvantages like irreversible transaction but it has plenty of advantages also. 
1238  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The uses for Cryptocurrency in places where fiat currency cannot be used on: October 11, 2019, 01:05:59 AM
Nowadays the world’s economy seems to be stable in a majority of the developed nations. However, for some of the less developed nations their economies are not doing so well compared to the more developed nations. In these countries, their economies might not be going so well due to conflicts in the regions, mismanagement by their governments and sometimes in the worst-case scenarios corruption by their respective governments.

In such cases, the value of their currencies is not very high in the global economy or in some cases such as Zimbabwe, are worthless to use for transactions. While some people in those countries just use trusted currencies such as the US Dollar as it is trusted by people worldwide, there is another alternative: cryptocurrency.

Considering that their currency is basically unusable, Zimbabwe has adopted cryptocurrencies as a means of trade especially after their banks wouldn’t allow them to make transactions using foreign currency. So far the use of cryptocurrencies there is rising and it probably won’t stop until they fix their economy. This shows that cryptocurrencies can help countries that have problems with their currency.

Another example would be Venezuela. As we know now, the region is rather unstable with their economy not doing so well, however, some of the people there are able to get by using cryptocurrencies which further proves that cryptocurrencies can greatly benefit places with economic difficulties.


This happens because of too much inflation's and the value of their money is keep on decreasing and this was cause by mismanagement or corruptions.

Adopting crypto currencies will surely help this kind of problem as there are no inflation in crypto currency but the problem is still there once they are going to convert their crypto currencies to fiat in buying their daily needs. But if this alternative will be proven to help the region that has a problem, I am sure that it will be spread all over the globe and problematic governments will start to adopt crypto currencies.
1239  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did you arrange a meet up or make a gathering with local bitcoin community? on: October 10, 2019, 01:25:57 PM
I wonder with many people now know bitcoin as a new trend in many countries, did you arrange a meetup or make a gathering with local bitcoin community? I think that will give a chance to spread bitcoin in your city, and you can ask other people to join you to use bitcoin or other coins. What they reaction if they read or see a slogan of Bitcoin?

I haven't tried because of my busy schedule but I would like to try a meet up someday and spread the advantages of bitcoin. But as of right now, there are plenty of gatherings that are happening in our country that were being hosted by my friends and I love to participate one day then create my own little gathering in our small town.

This will surely help those people who are interested in bitcoin and for me to guide them also so they can earn some good profit even if they are still a newbie in bitcoin.
1240  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think majority of the people heard or read Bitcoin one time or another on: October 10, 2019, 10:04:48 AM
Bitcoin has come along way we have seen massive adoption and so many videos, news, and articles about websites and many people have invested and are now using Bitcoin do you think after ten years majority of people around the world have heard or read Bitcoin one time or another?

I can say that after 10 years majority of people have heard or read about Bitcoin but still the adoption is not so widespread. The chance of adoption is like 40% of those who have heard or read about bitcoin which is not that bad also, slowly but surely is a good start for bitcoin.

But maybe another 10 years the bitcoin will surely set another record of adoption and the number of people that didn't hear or read about bitcoin will decrease to 10% of the total population around the world.
