I'm recently been using bituniverse for my trading as well as portfolio management. They track almost every exchange through API hence bringing in exact amount and prices. You just need to give your initial investment and it would present you with various charts over time. They also allow bot trading as well as manual trading on various exchanges even without leaving the app.
1342  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: looking to the future of crypto on: August 22, 2020, 02:26:03 PM
Seeing the development of new projects that have sprung up recently has people experiencing a motion of no confidence in crypto. because many projects do not have good long-term prospects. they just want to get profit alone regardless of the losses of others and do not develop it. have you ever thought that

what is your opinion?

We don't need a lot of crypto projects to succeed. And it doesn't mean that something immediately new is ought to be better than an old one. some of the old projects are much more actively developed and are being actually adapted by different sectors as utility or payment coin. We have so much coins already that 90% of them are bound to fail. Just a small number of coins would actually survive the test of time.
1343  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What will be best a new altcoin pegged to fiat money or to precious metals? on: August 22, 2020, 01:11:17 PM
If any company would be actually be pegging a coin, a one pegged with precious metals like gold would be a much better option than any pegged on fiat.
There are a lot of so called gold backed currency but the problem is almost all of them don't actually holds the required amount of gold for escrow. And it would not be believable unless an established company jumps into gold backed coins as issuing one requires a large capital. 
1344  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: John McAfee Has Left His Own Privacy Asset Project on: August 21, 2020, 01:24:42 PM
It was not his own to start with. He was a part of it. And to say so could just been and advisor cum advertiser for the project as he do have a good following on twitter and so called crypto news network follows every of his move. The Ghost project itself was accused of plagiarizing the whitepaper from another popular privacy focused coin. The disengagement would make no difference for both the project and McAfee himself as he is a shiller and needs new projects to keep shilling.
1345  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHAT TYPE OF CRYPTO INVESTOR ARE YOU? on: August 21, 2020, 10:57:09 AM
I'd classify myself an unlucky one. My first encounter with bitcoin was in late 2012. My first bitcoin purchase was below $250. Kept trading and dealing on bitcoin but didn't holded any significant amount on the price boost. Only realized that I should have kept some during the 2017 bull run. Though I kept on bagging coins after than, my average buy price now stands at about 8.5K. I'm an early adopter without any coins, a holder and a rookie trader.
1346  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Steem fork project (HIVE) a success on: August 20, 2020, 10:17:39 AM
Though Hive is a fork of steem, it aims to target a boarder market than steem. They have came up as a new but promising utility tokens and there are already a lot of dapps on the Hive platform. The largest dapp on Hive, Splinterlands has higher number of daily users than the total sum of users in steem dapps. That shows how better hive is for new dapp games and social/blogging platforms.
1347  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto currency is all about Hodling. on: August 19, 2020, 03:03:23 PM
Holding is still a less risky way to make money when bitcoin really bulls but it's quite frustrating for people with low (normal) patience. It's been some years and bitcoin is fluctuating between 4K and 12K. Grid traders on meantime made a good profit but the people that's been holding since the last ATH are still waiting. They price would go up one day but how appropriate would be the profit at that time is a different thing. A dollar today would not be worth the same after a year. The money you can't use when you really need is worthless.
1348  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which site do you use to get fresh updates on different projects event on: August 18, 2020, 12:18:54 PM
The two sites I visit every few minutes for update are bitcointalk forum and coinmarketcap. Though both of them are not actually a news sites, bitcointalk do have good discussion, mostly outdated but they give a bigger picture. On the other hand I check CMC for prices but going into a currency's social section, I visit their social section and go to twitter or reddit if I found and useful content. Reddit generally has quicker updates on things.
1349  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH V2.0 Testnet Experience Outage - Is this a sign for a choke? on: August 18, 2020, 10:51:40 AM
That's why this is a testnet. Bugs and problems are expected and they'll move on with new solutions. There would be ofcourse some solutions to every problems but not all solutions are as good. I hope the team takes its time in building a solid network than just patching some errors and bugs and rushing to launch it. If Ethereum failed to deliver what people are expecting it to, people would just move on to other platforms.
1350  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Everyone waiting for v2.0 but... on: August 18, 2020, 07:48:10 AM
Truly said. Rushing on for a community pressure could be more devastating. The blockchain is working and the least thing we want it is to break. They should test it enough before releasing. It also should be an overall development to the blockchain. Just making it more sluggish to implement POS would not be good. They rather break older apps and smart contract to make a better environment for them in future than to make it sluggish to fit most of them.
1351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's happening with Bitcoin & altcoins? on: August 17, 2020, 02:41:52 PM
Bitcoin along with other alts has always been unpredictive. No one was ready for the 19K ATH at that moment and no one thought the correction would come down to 4K and stay down for two years. Many people are waiting for another bull for over 2 years. The current price changes are gradual. Bitcoin kept on rising and making a new stand every 1K in price change. The price now hovers just above 12K and would likely hold. Yet, no one can predict the next sharp change would be a bull or bear.
1352  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Viabtc Founder Reveals BCH Fork Idea Called Bitcoin Cat on: August 16, 2020, 01:27:47 PM
As I remember Viabtc was one of the largest proponent for bitcoincash fork. They along with bitmain supported Bitcoincash calling it better for miners. Craig Wright forked it after he found himself not to be the prime person for the new coins. The desire for viabtc could be reasoned to the same.
Forking an open source coin is a good thing for diversification and parallel development but forking just to make you and your idea the only valid one would promote more forks than on actual development.
1353  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Here is what I don’t understand about DEFI? on: August 16, 2020, 10:50:33 AM
It's not an entirely new thing but on Defi everything happens on the base of safe contract which can be unhackable and automatic which decreases the expenditure of the platform and the risks involved in lending and borrowing which overall benefits the users with low cut leading to better rates on both lending and borrowing. It's an automated bank that depends on pre defined circumstances. No one to modify them or no excuses about anything.
1354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coinmarketcap's New Feature "Earn" on: August 15, 2020, 10:15:57 AM
Can you explain us about what crypto will the user get from coinmarketcap earn feature ?
It is written there we can earn crypto just by watching videos and answer question, but i think it will be more than that.
Personally im interested as well, coinmarketcap is the most popular coin rating site after all.

They are giving upto $10 worth of BAND tokens, not for everyone but some selected winners. You'd probably don't need to fill a KYC as they haven't asked for it. It's more like a promotion for the token and the exchange than actually rewarding the users. They'd spend a thousands getting attention of millions of users.
Coinmarketcap is increasing its services, it's no longer just a simple site to check prices and market value. I hope they don't compromise the loading speed furthermore.
1355  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's happening with Bitcoin & altcoins? on: August 15, 2020, 07:40:21 AM
we can guess it is a whale game or it is a pure hike, so I see this is indeed an increase but it is not maximal in any case. So maybe I think it should take a little longer to get to the top to prove that it's not a temporary pump from the whales
It will take a bit more of consistent grow to convince most of people that crypto market is somehow reliable and worth a try.
This is when the actual pump will happen

There was some Defi craze meanwhile. Many Defi coins rose sharply at a much better pace than bitcoin could. While Defi indeed is a good platform for future, it's not sure that all or any of the current Defi coin would be the leader of defi market in the future. It's a risky hype driven rise and the prices are now correcting themselves while bitcoin have has a slow but steady rise towards 12K.
1356  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If someone mistakenly sent you 1 ETH, what would you do? on: August 15, 2020, 06:39:23 AM
If it's just a transaction to address, the sender would never know who the receiver are or how to contact them and the receiver also would not know that the transaction has been a mistake. They'll not know me and I'll not know them. The finders are keepers.
But if they really have made a trade with me in past or is know from somewhere specially this forum and got my attention from a post or direct contact, I'd return it to the sender if 1ETH is really important to him/her/it.
1357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons Why am I adding as many Ethereum bags as possible? on: August 14, 2020, 05:01:38 PM
I just sold every ETH on a average value about 440. It's not that I'm not bullish about the coin, I am, I believe ETH is going to hit 1K within a year but at current rise, Ethereum network is already facing a large congestion and the tx fees have rose so much that it's not worth doing small transfers. This would certainly discourage arbitrage traders and small investors. The price is ought to correct now. I'd buy it again around 360.
1358  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New normal world will make crypto better on: August 14, 2020, 03:22:05 PM
Popular Cryptos are doing better than traditional investment. Whole crypto market is doing improvement during covid pandemic where traditional businesses are suffering a lot. So large companies, banks found crypto as better field of investment and thereby most of the giants have separate arms to handle crypto assets. They are adding cryptos mainly btc, eth, defi into investment portfolio. Good days are coming if we survive through Covid19

Covid is not going to normalize overnight. And while it goes in the phase of normalization, digital transaction would be preferred. Not every nation have a well established digital payment system and there are no easy system on interantional trade. And with the US trade war, the world is going to be divided into two different blocks and crypto would be a useful tool on staying float at this risky market.
1359  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coinmarketcap's New Feature "Earn" on: August 14, 2020, 02:08:40 PM
Do they require KYC? If so, I guess they won't get anyone to participate in their learn and earn program or will get very low amount of submission. I have checked the coinbase program long ago but since they require KYC, I gave up. Anyway, good to see the changes there.

KYC is not required with Coinmarketcap new Earn, but, I think the trick is that you need an account on Binance. Of course while passing quiz it is asked to fill any BAND wallet, but the instruction shows how to get it on Binance. When the timer runs out, I feel that only Binance BOND wallets will be filled with BAND tokens. Otherwise what is the point of doing such a giveaway using Coinmarketcap (an instrument that Binance bought few months ago) and using other than Binance wallets.

This who new "earn" is created just to attract more users to Binance.

I was curious and went through it. They are not just promoting band, they are recommending binance as a good wallet. Binance is not a compulsion but a recommendation. You need your registered email on coinmarketcap.
The $10 worth of band are not just for anybody as they stated that some of the lucky winners are going to get it. They make you do some questionnaire of which most are obvious answers while a few are tricky.
1360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Indian banks freezing bank accounts AGAIN ! on: August 13, 2020, 02:25:46 PM
I don't think bank would just freeze account of their customers on their own without a directive from the government or regulatory bodies. I don't know how it works there but banks always tries to keep their customer with them. They won't be troubling people for just using the banks to buy legal things. One situation maybe the number of fraud calls originating on transactions, but I don't think that would be large among legit crypto traders. Often non crypto networking schemes are also sold as crypto to naive investors around the world.
