Now the bounty award is best kept, and over time when the market starts to grow then it will be time to sell , then you will benefit.

That is it, and in most part of it, what is just required is patience. Without patience, there is absolutely no way you will be willing to wait as long as you can, to see your sweet huge profit on any market you are holding. It is a phase, which is bearish at the moment, but some are taking the chance to even accumulate the more, but at least if you do not have the chance or funds to accumulate, there will always be a time for the bulls as well, which in that case, you should be looking to offload and then join the whales in rinsing and repeating the process.
142  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stable Coins Necessary? on: November 07, 2018, 09:57:58 AM

Currently seems every project or crypto company wanna create a stable coin now, except USDT, currently we have GUSD, TUSD, PAX.

But do you think it's really necessary to have so many stable coins?
Well, the idea of stable coin is just to have something you can hedge and if some group of people decided to come up to make this happen, as long as they are legit, then I see no problem at all with that. One of the reasons why USDT has been having issues is the fact that they are not transparent, has refused auditing and there are so many questions regarding some shady behaviors with USDT that is pretty bad for the market. However, what is important is that no matter the stable coin we are making use of, we should at least make some due diligence on them, and be sure, we are actually not ending up with another tether.

bitcoin will rise again in 2019.

seeing the development of bitcoin at the end of the year is indeed very worrying for investors to remain strong for now because bitcoib in early 2019 will rise again ...

What do you think??
There is nothing to think here, this is the crypto space, and one thing I have always known is never to assume what the future is going to bring, but just have one common mindset, which is the fact that based on the present moment, the long term seems bright and that is all that matters.

A lot of us always end up getting worked up unnecessarily when we place our mind to a certain time in the future, and then when things end up not working as planned or as hoped, we start whining and complaining. You will find it hard to focus on the future, if what you want to do is to have some high hopes and then whine when things don't work out. One of the reasons why a lot of people panic and end up capitulating.

I am not too sure if Mourinho wants it though. I know people at that type of position loves a challenge but Mourinho is a manager who had great times there already, he is doing great in Manchester united right now which is basically the best job anyone can ever have, united kept sir Alex Ferguson for over 20 years at the club and if Mourinho wants to stay and tries hard than he has a chance to have one team for the rest of his life. Why would anyone want to put that in risk and go to a real Madrid team that is already 7 points behind Barcelona ? I think it would be career suicide for him. I know real Madrid would love to have him, hell there are very very few teams in the whooole world who wouldn't want Mourinho right now but it still doesn't make sense for Mourinho's eyes.
145  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 4 Things Traders Must Do To Be Successful on: November 02, 2018, 03:10:41 PM
I think the most important if to be succesfull to become a trader you must control your emotion because all the knowledge that you have been mastered  won't help you when your emotions can't be controlled.
You know the main thing that makes you have the ability to control your emotions? That is knowledge! Trust me, there is absolutely no way you will be able to deal with emotion, if you are not even confident of your own capabilities and ability to make good trades.

Now, this is something that is always subject to your approach to trading most of the time, and for most people that tend to always approach trading without knowledge, strategy, and continuous practice and back testing before entering the real world, will always keep having problems.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Africa be a good place for crypto? on: October 25, 2018, 03:33:32 PM
The success of digital wallets in the African continent was really great and based on what I've read on news articles about it, it really helped the economy and the businesses when it all started years ago.
With this in mind, will Africans be welcoming of bitcoin/altcoin as a real currency and not just a quick way to earn cash or invest? Like using it as real money / cash?
I found a new crypto that emerged from Africa.
ann : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5040437.0
bounty : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5028205.0
I think Africans also have great potential because not all of them are left behind in technology
No one is actually saying the potential is not there in the long run, but it would take some time, the fact that you are seeing some projects pop up with some pretty good team from Africa, trying to bring about something for the growth of the space, we still cannot use that to judge entirely that it would be easily adopted in Africa.

It is not like we do not have some brilliant minds here in at least some of the developing parts of Africa, but for the general continent itself, a lot will have to do with the government, and not just people who decide to do their own personal stuffs.
147  Economy / Economics / Re: current situation of cryptocurrency for 2018 on: October 25, 2018, 01:13:50 PM
Its hard expecting fast rising in 2018 except there is really good news in market. But i am believe cryptocurrency is good long term investment and i am believe its profitable investment. I am expecting 2019 will be good year for crypto market
we should not think cryptocurrency give us profits in few moment.we've already see bitcoin developtment need years to reach its price right now.and maybe its happen to other coins to.
Something bigger takes time to happen, nothing happens with days or with months, you will have to keep patience and hold your investment for more than one year so then you will earn good income and your investment, investors has been waiting since long and now it is time to get the fruit of their patience, I am sure 2018 will end up with huge price of bitcoin.
Yeah, and in cases like that, all that is required of everyone is just patience. Current situation of cryptocurrency in 2018 may be bearish but that does not mean it is going to end up being bearish forever, as that is one thing I believe will most definitely reverse and recover.

What is mostly important now is to just keep our focus tightened up towards the long term and knowing that even though the current situation is bearish, there will definitely be some bullish moments in the long run, and this is even more like a chance for accumulation for the long term.
148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cheaters are Destroying the System, How can we Deal with them? on: October 25, 2018, 11:50:23 AM
Hi guys,
In the last 4 months i noted that a lot of people are creating many accounts (fake accounts) to participate in the bounties as multi accounts per user and as we all know that one of the main rules for every bounty is to use only one accounts per user.

Cheaters are greedy and harmful
Cheaters are not greedy they are so greedy, in the beginning they starting with two or three fake accounts then after a while they became having many fake accounts per one user.
They are not only so greedy but also harming, because after a while they starting to harm other bounty hunters, as an example for the reddit campaign they are using their fake accounts to downvotes the other hunters in order to decrease their stakes which logically will go to them because they are using their fake accounts to get a lot of upvotes.
Another example is for the blog/article campaign, the campaign that are beeing attacked by a lot of cheaters in the last months, they are using fake bitcointalks accounts to steal hunters' articles and adding their wallets.

These cheaters are destroying the system, they collecting a lot of tokens for each project and then sell them immediately when the project hit the exchange causing a dump in the price which also causes another loss for the investors.

I had saw a lot of cheaters and i know a lot of fake accounts on twitter, facebook, reddit, medium and bitcointalk accounts. i have a big list of cheaters but then what? every time i report tens of them i see hundreds coming and if i continued doing that i'm losing a lot of time hunting them, we need a creative solution to stop the cheaters, we want a clear and perfect system to stop and prevent them from the beginning..

Why i'm writting this topic?
my purpose from this topic is to discuss with you guys how can we stop the cheaters, i hope everyone can share here his visoin on how to stop them and after that we'll clarify and filter all the replies to get the basic rules that can be used by the bounties' managers to prevent the cheaters from being exist.
Also what is your opinion for sharing here all the cheaters accounts so they'll we known by us, so everyone can reports them to the bounties' managers for the bounties that we are participating in.
Cheaters are always going to be part of every system as well as fraudulent activities. Even in the real life, banks themselves are involved in fraudulent activities just like some few banks recently involved in one with JPMorgan and the likes of Citibank being involved. The thing here is, as an individual, what are you doing on your own to be able to not get caught up in all of these.

This is where knowledge comes in. If you have no knowledge, you can never find it easy to even identify anything at all when it comes to scams. Cheaters are not the only ones damaging the system, gullible investors are too.
149  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The advantage of day trader on: October 20, 2018, 12:26:41 PM
Day trading is very good if you know now to go about it and makes some money from the market.  I could still remember when I was day trading in stock and forex and one thing I could remember is that it is very risky and the rewards is also very rewarding.
I don't think it's just money. but a freedom and can be closer to family. because money alone if we look for it too will also give us a loss. as it is today. trading also can't lust with big results
Yeah it is right that day trading is more profitable than any other source of profit. But you should keep in mind that day trading in not easy and one wrong decision will take all your money. Therefore I suggest you to gain as much knowledge as you can before starting trade. You must be courageous and patience to handle hard times and situations in the market.
Sure, and I do not even expect anyone to be arguing that actually. However, as profitable as it can be, that is how hectic it can be generally and frustrating for someone who does not have any trading knowledge or experience. It is easy to talk about day trading but it is when you get into action as a day trader and you have to be making intraday decisions, which you will understand it is not at all an easy thing to do.

However, it is what it is, the more the risk, the more the profit and the more the losses as well. So at the end, it all depends on how you are able to manage yourself in which scenario you end up with.
150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: INS speculation. Will it rise again? on: October 13, 2018, 02:18:56 PM
Updating this topic.

With the current state of market today wherein most coins/tokens are dumping. Why INS is pumping? Is it manipulation? Or people are starting to notice this project as we are now in Q4 and testnet is about to launch. Any thoughts?
Unless there is actually fundamental news that is making the market to rise hugely, then I might as well just stick with the fact that yeah, it is highly manipulated. However, most altcoins are manipulated anyway, so it is not something new, and I really do not think that test net which is about to launch is what would be driving the price to such extent and I believe it is just some whales trying to instigate FOMO and then pumping the market to see those who are gullible enough to participate by jumping in front of a moving train and then dumping on them.
151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The whole market is red, but is it worth panicking now? on: October 13, 2018, 01:08:12 PM
Panic when all of the red zones are in the crypto is a regular thing, if we invest big into the coin this for fear of losing or suffered losses in large numbers. But if we can grasp and understand very well about the Graph chart and be able to read it's movement, this would help to reduce losses.
It is only a regular thing for people who actually do not understand the market and are just looking for quick ways to make money which is why at the end of the day they will always have themselves to blame. One thing with a lot of people is that rather than sitting down to see what they have been doing wrong over the years, they tend to just keep panicking for no reasons.

This is a market and there would always be a chance and opportunity in every trend. A lot of people do not have it in mind that red market is always an opportunity to buy when the market has bottomed out enough, but of course, because of their ignorance and mindset, they never think straight.
152  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is $6000 to $7000 the stable price for bitcoin? on: October 11, 2018, 07:07:35 PM
yes you are right I also feel that the price of bitcoin this year I feel stable at the price of $ 6-7k because at the moment I think there is very little good news that can trigger an increase in bitcoin prices, a lot of bad news circulating in some media makes the price of bitcoin very it's difficult to be able to make a price quote.
Nothing is stable yet. The fact that we are still moving inside a big triangle actually is the reason why we are seeing such movement between $6000 and $7000 but I would not actually consider that magnitude of movement a stable price, I only see a market right now trying to find a direction as the case may be. A break out is what would apparently trigger participation in the market eventually, so in that case, it would be, are we breaking upwards and see participation brewing upward, or we break downward and we go a whole lot lower, time will tell!
153  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin again 6k$..... on: October 11, 2018, 01:29:34 PM
It seems to me that if there is no strong fall before stable growth, then this year the price for BTC will not fall to $ 6000 or less.
Yes, the price is in between 6k and 6.5k dollar but this is not a new price. We have this price from the past 7 months so you can say it is stable here and making something favorable for only those who want to buy.

On the other hand, those there are traders who have coins on exchange and want to sell it right now so this is a bad strategy which will result in small profit. if you want to become a productive trader you will must sell in a market where the price is higher than that of cost price.
154  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Until when does the price of crypto currency continue to fall? on: October 09, 2018, 03:38:24 PM
Actually, the cryptocurrency market has no dip level. Which means each coin or tokens (even BTC or ETH) can drop until each one has 1 Satoshi or even less theoretically. But of course the theoric and the pratic are different and people will start to buy when they think the price is cheap or when the FOMO start.
Obviously, we are in a market and as far as every market is concerned, no one knows tomorrow or what happens in it. How far the cryptocurrency market falls is a mystery and it will keep remaining a mystery because it is something no one can know until it happens and the same thing applies to how far it goes up. What is important which I feel people should be even more concerned about is how to take advantage of these trends when they come.

The issue mostly is that people do not get to find the way they can do things right but instead focus on the negative part, when indeed in every negativity, someone is gaining a whole lot from it, so why not be that kind of person instead of worrying on things that are not relevant.
155  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I lost 10000$ in trading, what should I do? on: October 09, 2018, 11:33:03 AM
Hi, I am a crypto-hamster and bought bitcoin when it cost 17,000 and decided to trade on the Bitfinex exchange withe margin.
In this business I was not experienced, so I followed the advice of different traders and their signals.
In the end I lost 10 thousand dollars when bitcoin fell to 6k , but it was money that I was ready to lose, i.e. free.
Now I do not have the desire to trade, but I want to earn money on crypto currency, because it's interesting and I believe that the future is for the crypto currency.
Now I want to try to make money on bounty programs.
And I want to ask you advice in this difficult matter. Where to start, and is it profitable at all?

Well, if I were you, the first thing I would do is cool off and step a little back, at least, that's the first thing I would do. I mean, I would surely get emotional if that would happen to me, since $1,000 is still a big amount of money, and it can still affect how much fund you are using either as capital or circulating in your investments and trade. After stepping back, I will study whatever mistakes I made or what actually affected and caused the loss, it is like one big blow, or is it an accumulation of many things? Then, after knowing that, the next thing to do is make use of what I have learned to try to get it back, but make sure that as you do that, you don't rush.
I think after losing 10k it would not be wise to start hunting bounties considering it wouldn't pay even fraction of that. For you to get that back I would start suggesting by finding ways to gather as much crypto as you can for as cheap as possible.

Depending on how much money you have you can start off with something like dash which would give you both increase in price if it goes up but also chance to "mine" it by just having it, you can of course check out other masternodes. Mining takes a lot of money to start whereas masternodes do not require you to have your capital tied anywhere and you can leave whenever you want.
156  Economy / Economics / Re: My question about bitcoins economical shift on: October 08, 2018, 01:42:13 PM
Okay, i was looking the countries wich has the higest debt.
Then i found out debt has something to do with inflation.

Japan has highest debt and suprise surprise why ?

Because they have printed too much money now the inflation is eating the money.

And japan have big bitcoin infrastructure of merchants.
Japan is allready bitcoin friendly country.

What inflation are you talking about?
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-japan-economy-inflation/japan-inflation-ticks-up-but-bojs-target-remains-elusive-idUSKCN1M03C6

Quote
The nationwide core consumer price index (CPI), which excludes fresh food costs, rose 0.9 percent in August from a year earlier, matching a median market forecast and accelerating slightly from a 0.8 percent gain in July.

This one?  Grin Grin

But canada and usa will fall down soon.

Yeah, any minute... don't blink or you might miss it.

As we know bitcoin and whole blockchain is made by secret service and funded by secret service and goverment.
Many here in this forum working together with goverment elite and with secret service.
Many people here are former or even current goverment agents.
So id like to hear what is opinion they have about all of this !!

Triple double layered tin foil hat activated!

A USD collapse, which is the largest reserve currency in the world, would also mean a global economic collapse, and there may be bigger problems to worry about than what to pair BTC with.

People don't realize how serious a collapse scenario will be because they just read something on the internet, think it will increase Bitcoin's value and thus it's a great opportunity for those looking to sell high, they then echo it across a wide variety of platforms, and there you have it, even more noobs thinking that the US dollar is nearing its last days. It's mind boggling how weak minded some people are. If the US dollar goes down, we all go down with it, lol.

Bitcoin's value at that point being $1,000,000 will represent a value of $10,000 today. If Bitcoin needs devaluing fiat currencies to artificially increase significantly, it's pretty pathetic if you ask me. Be careful what you wish for peeps, it will work against you.

All those that are cheering for a collapse of the USD will be the first one running in the streets banging their heads on every pole and asking God why this happened!!!

If the US collapse in a small timeframe (1 week or ) we're all rekt! China Japan Germany Somalia it doesn't matter, the last time the US economy sneezed millions lost their jobs even f they couldn't even point where the US was on a map.

What is BTC or any other crypto going to do for all those? Are they going to turn to bounty hunting on bitcointalk and doing work here?  Grin
Seriously, some people are thinking and acting like children.




Your answer here shows exacly who you are !!

But what the usd will do about high debt now ?
They just keep going ?
Lets not get excited THAT much for bitcoin. Yes it has a big place and in countries like Venezuela and turkey and back in the day crypus people went to bitcoin for help from their own fiat having troubles but thinking bitcoin will be the base currency for WHOLE WORLD is just a dream that will not happen.

Are you suggesting bitcoin that has no regulations and no central place that could be controlled by governments will become base currency for the people of the world to spend? Or do you mean governments will start accepting it? Because they won't. Best case they can start their own tokens and coins so they can use it but also control it.
157  Economy / Economics / Re: I almost lost my rock solid regular job because of crypto on: October 08, 2018, 01:11:38 PM
It's really important to have a regular job. Don't let your whole life be crypto. Take time for everything, especially family and social activities. Crypto can be seen as additional work but it should never be the main source of income. If you can't manage your time in order, the crypto really starts taking your time .
I believe that if you are passionate enough and have vision to create useful product or business in crypto sphere, then you should leave your regular job and get fully involved in crypto. In this case you risk, but can receive more profit and find yourself in this world, add value to crypto world and in some cases become famous.
Every sucessful person has risked enough at least once in a life to get overwhelming results. That's how it works.
Honestly I have been "unemployed" for over 2 years now, I have been writing, selling, promoting, marketing every crypto thing I found to make money, sometimes I made a lot of money and was very rich, sometimes I was having trouble paying the bills, these ups and downs creates a big huge phsycological problem in a person soul and that is why I am trying to move away from being full crypto and trying to get to semi-crypto from now on but I wouldn't change a single thing about my past, I had great times and had great fun during when I was full crypto. I would just not want that as a future since its inconsistent.
158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bounty Hunter's Problem on: October 06, 2018, 11:54:52 AM
Certainly. Now a lot of scams and find a good project now is a problem. But if you take it seriously, you can pass the fate of being deceived. It is necessary to study the project before taking part in the bounty campaign.
Careful study of where you are putting your time into is one thing every bounty hunter should always do. However, these days, bounty hunters are always very lazy to want to go into the details of a project and they really care less to want to know how they can at least take advantage of the good projects out there and all they care about is how to just pick any coin or token that comes their way, and whichever one turns out to be fine or not, is their luck.

That to me is even unethical. Every bounty hunter has a part to play and this is the reason why a lot of people keep complaining they have only been investing in scam projects over the years. How wouldn't you, when you do not do due diligence?
159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ♠️♠️♠️Exchange bounty stakes to ETHER (ETH) instantly ♠️♠️♠️ on: October 05, 2018, 10:34:43 AM
The idea is not bad, but I never saw volumes and interest in TKP , on those exchanges where it is - there are no orders or they are absolutely cheap. I will follow the project, which may be in the future.
It is actually an interesting idea but at the end of it all, how the swapping is going to be done is what I am still wrapping my head around. In this way what someone is doing is to buy the stakes of every individual depending on the total stakes allocated for that specific bounty campaign and I am sure at the end of it all, he would be buying a lot lower than the actual amount anyone would have gotten in the end in the long run.

However, it is a service and every service are meant to be profitable, but I must really commend the idea anyway as we will definitely get to see a lot of people who are usually in haste to drop their assets anyway.
160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taking a break from gambling on: October 03, 2018, 10:41:48 AM
I say you don't take break or something, instead of that just stay from gambling. Moreover gambling is not meant to make money only you will be loose the funds from your wallets.
Nothing there in gambling field is stable. So not even for consideration you should not go with the gambling investment.
The ability to be able to take a break in the first instance makes it very easy for you to stay away if you want to in the long run. For someone like the OP, it is obvious he is only gambling for fun and even though he had to realize he is losing a lot of money, he had to cut back on it and do other activities and that to me is something everyone who wants to gamble should always try to do when it comes to gambling.

It is the idea a lot of people usually have when it comes to chasing losses and trying to recover them that makes them find it hard to control the impulse that comes with gambling.
