Please don't even make the mistake of buying bitcoin in this forum or you will end up been scammed. Not that you won't find potential sellers but some of them have scammed few people here. I suggest you should buy from Coinbase; though you will be required to verify your identity, you can do this if you don't mind sharing your information online. Or you might be also want to checkout localbitcoin.

These your question are something you just answer instantly, it needs a vivid explanations. I suggest you should go online and read first a lot about creating a new coin. Here is an article that could help you ; http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/how-to-create-your-own-cryptocurrency-bitcoin-alternative-altcoin-a8151386.html
But you should know that it's is not a good idea for your coin to have a fix calculating supply, it could cause your coin not been available to those you might want to have or purchase it, since most people might be holding their coins.
1343  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is your time span in buy/sell decisions? on: February 14, 2018, 11:01:15 AM
Day trading is very extremely definitely not for me. Most people wind up ruined very rapidly. My time span is years. I'm waiting until 2020 before making any significant moves. I still think that's when things will start to fulfil the potential they're promising.
Same here. I don't know how some people seems to do it but its really working for them. I tried the day trading things and I ended up lossing some of my funds, then I had to back out. The coins I wasted can't be recovered but I definitely learnt my lesson, which is not to day trade again. Now, I am fully holding coins and brought out some coins for investing in any ICO which I have fully researched and worth it.
1344  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Where to find Chineese ICO investors. on: February 14, 2018, 08:03:17 AM
Better to ask to the chineses. I don't know if you will find the investor's profile you are looking for there, but at least you will find more accurated informations:

Chinese section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=30.0
Yap, this is a good place to search also, but i doubt if you will see. I think you should also check out any projected conducted by the Japanese. It might be accepting other Asia countries just hope their won't be a need for  KYC verification. Seriously if not for the KYC, ban or no ban, you will be entering any good ICO of your choice. So therefore, look for any good ICO that does not require Identity verfication.
1345  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you selling your altcoins so soon? on: February 13, 2018, 11:26:44 PM
I don't know about people whom are selling but I think it is better not to sell now till we know the direction cryptocurrency are heading to because basically, all coins are quite low now. Most people may be selling because they fear that the end of cryptocurrency has come and it is mostly caused by FUD. My suggestion, you did the right thing by holding, keep on holding your coins.
1346  Economy / Economics / Re: Which countries will end up adopting crypto as legal tender first? on: February 13, 2018, 07:45:30 PM
Normally, I don't think there is any particular country or countries that will adopt the use of cryptocurrency because any country can adopt  it and we may not know the next in line. It might even be China; we never can tell. What I think we should be looking at is which government of a country will let their ego down and accept crypto as part of their country monetary transaction; this will indeed be a hard one.
1347  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are trading volumes normally this low? on: February 13, 2018, 06:46:45 PM
I guess it because of the low price in cryptocurrencies. Almost all the coins are literally low in prices now. Most traders won't want to sell off their coins because they might have gotten it when the price was high. Do you expect a traders who bought Ethereum when the price was $1000+ to sell now when the price is $800 below, that's loss. They are typically holding their coins hoping for when it will pump back a little.
1348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Instead of gambling - run your own fantasy sports website on: February 13, 2018, 02:11:03 PM
It is not that easy what you think to make money from any sites. Not just coming up with a site you can start earning money because you're missing one important thing is site traffic. You need to spend money to promote your site to bring more visitors to your site. Any site without traffic no use and it takes a lot of time and money to do it.
Exactly! This is what most people don't understand. There are quite a number of sites with same niche in sport and gaming. Trying to rank will be a serious business because of high competitions. Or else a serious SEO and vigorous marketing are not done, any new site in that niche is not going nowhere. And this requires a lot of starting capital, a lot of people have failed trying to do this.
1349  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There is no FUD. There is only denial. on: February 13, 2018, 12:53:27 PM
They desperately hope that by screaming "FUD" the price will magically be pumped again.
Lol....This got me seriously laughing. Well, if you look at it in another perspective, in some way, it is sort of true though. But the truth still remain that most news headlines can cause panicking in some people whom are just starting out in crypto. That is why it is always adviceable to read the full content of a news before concluding. And of course Bitcoin can never serve as a form of currency,  those whom are waiting for this to happen should keep on waiting forever.
1350  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there a sign bitcoin won't experience higher value increase? on: February 12, 2018, 08:53:25 PM
In my own opinion, I don't think Ripple or Ethereum have fully stabilize, we can still see a higher price for them in months to come or even next year. And another important thing; in as much as Ripple is a good coin and Ethereum is another future coin we should look out for, they can never suppress or overtake Bitcoin. Bitcoin will still remain the number famous crypto coin with an unbeatable price.
1351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Exchange or Wallet? on: February 12, 2018, 07:09:51 PM
I keep on telling people who cares to know, DO NOT ever leave your coins on any exchange. No matter how secure they claim to be, or promise to be, they can never guarantee you that their exchange won't be hacked anytime. Do yourself a huge favor and open a secured offline wallet for storing your coins. When an exchange gets hacked, it is only an apology that you will get from them, not a single coin.

1353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ways casinos cheat on: February 11, 2018, 03:18:56 PM
Some casino may seems to be genuine but their conducts may make them appear cheaters to their users. Because every users will always want a casino to run in a particular way to suit their peculiar interest. Moreover, there is no casino who are 100% pure, they manipulate things to make gains, to me this casinos are genuine. But some of them are greedy to the extend of scamming their users completely.
1354  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much do you think btc will go up by end of 2018? on: February 11, 2018, 12:09:16 PM
I think we’ll see something like $30,000 as the value of 1 bitcoin by the end of 2018. That’s not based on any TA or anything, just a personal opinion.
I can say maybe $20,000-$30,000 but the main thing is that it is hard to predict the price of bitcoin in weeks to come not to talk of months to come. With the news we have been hearing concerning bitcoin and the major internal manipulation from some whale investors, nobody know what price it may come with, but one thing I certain; bitcoin has a very potential and bright future.
1355  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: From stock market trading shift to crypto trading on: February 09, 2018, 12:57:48 PM
Well, I believe you do prefer the one that will favor you the most which is why you migrated from stock to cryptocurrency full time. Left for me, if you have the capital, I would suggest you continue to trade the two, since you said that stock is less risky than cryptocurrency. And no one can tell what might happen to the price of crypto, you might want to use the stock as a back up since you don't have an offline job.
1356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: India Support Blockchain Technology finance mininster said on: February 09, 2018, 06:20:09 AM
At least they didn't say it is banned totally like some Asia countries did. We just hope for a more better news from coutries regarding bitcoin. And I think the number one major problems we might be facing is the media, they are always good with creating FUD among people who lack more knowledge about Bitcoin yet invest in it, whenever the read the headlines, the content of the news is meaningless.
1357  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is the factor of downfall of bitcoin? on: February 08, 2018, 02:03:07 PM
I won't call it factors but major Contributors to the recent dip. Well, some claims the China recent bans and shut down of exchanges did caused it; it might be True, can't say. And the others said it could be the recent ban from banks to costumers for using their credit cards to buy bitcoin; it might be true, I can't say. All I know is, even if the price dips or pumps, I am HODLing my coins.
1358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How safe is Bitcoin gambling on: February 08, 2018, 07:35:15 AM

You’re right. There used to be a bitcoiner here named JoelKatz. He was a very knowledgeable bitcoin supporter and left here to become Chief Cryptographer at Ripple, the company behind the Ripple settlement network. He said it best: Bitcoin has no central control: no central repository of information, no central management, and, crucially, no central point of failure. Most of the actual services and businesses built within the Bitcoin ecosystem are centralized. They are run by specific people, in specific locations, with specific computer systems. That does not make bitcoin centralized.

20 merit points awarded

Thanks for the merit. And thanks also for the input. I guess those actual services and businesses built within the Bitcoin ecosystem are what makes some people to misunderstand and classify bitcoin as not been fully decentralized. I see.
We should be seeing more of your posts, on informations about bitcoin. Most people like me will be needing it to know more. Thanks again, though.
1360  Other / Off-topic / Re: Merit System Upgrade on: February 07, 2018, 05:33:55 AM
It’s likely you haven’t received more merit because those posts are older.
Well, I do to comment on new post, I just think people feel reluctant to give merit or probably not used to it.

If you want to learn more then read more about it and start a discussion based on your newly acquired knowledge (also a good way to get merit).
I will try to put this into practice to see how it goes. Thanks.

Here’s a question based on your history. Why is bitcoin decentralized?
Been that we are in an economy whereby how we spend or what we do with our money is been monitored by a central authority, Satoshi Nakamoto decided to create an electronic currency whereby, you own and keep your money without the involvement of a third party thus spending your money is an electronic transaction soley between the sender and the receiver. Though, all transaction on blockchain are visible.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
