A lot of scams have caused the fear of theft among people and they are regarding bitcoin and its trading a scam. People seem to be reluctant towards investing in bitcoins. How do we ensure them that bitcoins are not scam but the people are. Undecided


A lot of scam was causing cryptocurrency lost trust from investors indeed, you can see by the price of crypto in the market currently.
What we can do to make bitcoin accepted by many peoples is just by using bitcoin in every transaction we do.
If we use bitcoin often, peoples will ask and creating more awareness of cryptocurrency around us.

As Blythe Masters said :

  “You should be taking this technology as seriously as you should have been taking the development of the Internet in the early 1990’s.”  Shocked


So just put money every months in bitcoin and others altcoins , just a bit , but with the time , it will be a snowball !


But remember ,   WHEN YOU INVEST , JUST THINK THAT THE MONEY IS LOST ! and invest what you can loose !


Here my best Cryptocurrency Portfolio :  Wink





And to put in a nutshell , yes , there are risks to invest in cryptocurrencies , it's totally true , and if someone say the reverse , he's an ignorant.

  But , there are also risks in yours dailys lives guys , when you walk in the streets , you could be hit by a car ...
When you are doing some sports , you could do a cardiac arrest ...



Furthermore , when you invest in stock exchange , the company could call in the receiver ....







Awesome, i really love peoples like you. Peoples who have no regret of what they did.
If you want to invest on something, make sure you ready to lose that. Otherwise, you won't have patience to wait the profit.
But sadly some peoples investing with a high expectation and cannot afford if they lose their money later.
143  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what is your motivation to invest in an ICO on: September 10, 2018, 03:17:49 AM
Hi all,

For my master thesis, I’m currently doing a study about Initial Coin Offerings. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the key motivations of investors to invest in an ICO. In order to finalize my study, I made a survey. You’ll find the link to this below. It would be extremely helpful to me if you could make some time to fill in and complete my survey. It will take you approximately 4 – 6 minutes.

Survey link: https://uvafeb.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_e5xnqKOMbpwGDw9

Thanks in advance!
Max Kauffmann


I think my motivation to investing in ICO is because anyone can investing on any projects in the world., except they prohibit your country.
Another thing that motivates me is the ROI of the ICO. If you participated in private sale and the project success, you will gain much ROI because you are an early adopter of the project.
144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best coin to buy a cup of Coffee? on: September 10, 2018, 02:52:28 AM
So what's the best coin to buy a cup of Coffee with? Transaction cost must not be expensive and the transaction must complete before the Coffee gets cold...  Cool

This is the interesting scenario, transaction must be completed before Coffee gets cold means the coin must have a fast confirmation time.
If you are using btc, im afraid that your coffee will be cold before the transaction confirmed. Same with ETH, if the network congest, your transaction time will be long unless you using high gas fee. Maybe you can use LTC or DOGE.
145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 100 usd enough to start trading ? on: September 09, 2018, 02:08:53 PM
I have 110 $ ...witch crypto is best to start trading with a small amount as 100 $ actually i'm in etherium ... i see a verry small progress .. is there another crypto more profitable and faster with 100 $ ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Even with only $50, i think you will be able to trading in some exchanges. You must find a good exchange that have a good liquidity.
Another important thing to do is choosing a right coin to trade. A day trader will have to find what coin to buy and what coin to sell today.
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Eth is done on: September 09, 2018, 01:57:12 PM
buy something else  Grin
Eth bloat, clog, unscalable at this point

Why we should buy something else ? Do you think ETH price will be like this forever ?
I think ETH is a good coin, it has smart contract to automate transactions and speed up.
Most ICO are sucks today, thats why ETH coin going down very drastic.
147  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Downsides to crypto on: September 08, 2018, 04:11:54 PM
If and when cryptocurrency and/or bitcoin becomes the official currency of the world, do you think there will be a downside to it? If so, what do you think the negative effect will be once cryptocurrency becomes a worldwide currency?

And what kind of downside do you mean? If bitcoin become the world currency, then crypto wont go downside.
The negative effect of it maybe on the fiat currency. Peoples will less to use fiat if they already easy to using bitcoin as a world currency.
148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Artificial Intelligence on: September 08, 2018, 04:04:55 PM
Can someone explain how artificial intelligence will effect blockchain/crypto projects from now on? What is the importance of artificial intelligence?

Well, artificial intelligence is important for the modern technology indeed.
Everything can be automate if you have AI in your system.
In blockchain, maybe some AI implement will be done on a few projects only.
149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why you should stay off from market prediction on: September 06, 2018, 04:41:58 PM
As an investor one thing you shouldn't engage yourself with is Predictions, if you want to be successfully in this Crypto ecosystem, you need to stay off any form of market prediction.

Here are few reasons why you shouldn't engaged with it (market/price prediction)

1. Predictions can be wrong

2. Listening to predictions makes you a speculator

3. Listening to predictions makes you an onlooker

4. Price prediction gives you nothing for today, only false hope

5. Listening to price prediction makes you think in one direction

Finally

Don’t let speculation and assumption make you decide what to do.

Because market prediction can lead you to a false promise without certainty.
Cryptocurrency is volatile, there is no way you can predict the price.
If peoples could predict the price, we wouldn't afraid to buy the coins few years ago.
150  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Why I don't Support KYC in cryptocurrency as it is on: September 06, 2018, 04:32:20 PM
Actually, i dont support it as well because it will makes the holders of cryptocurrency known.
I really like the concept of the privacy coin like cryptonight-based coins.
It keep your privacy safe and no one will know your transactions.
151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: My bounty story (5.99eth) on: September 06, 2018, 04:33:15 AM
Dear newbies, i wanted to inspire you about my bounty experince in signature campaign. Im just a rank member, i join a lot of sig bounty but im always dissapointed because almost of the bounty that i joined is always a failed project.

Until i met bountyhive.io , i used to join on their signature campaign which is cool cousins. That project became so successful which about to hit its hardcap.Then one day signature bounty ends Im so surprise for what i got on their bounty reward it gives me 22,612.5 cuz which like 5.99ETH its my first time to receive for that high ammount of reward and planning to hold that coin because it got a big potential.

Patience is the key if you believe on what you are doing then just continue it, even if you fail many times dont back down just believe that oneday crypto and bounty projects will give you instant jackpot! Just be patient like me :-)

I hope this could motivate and inspire you. Thank you for reading.

That was nice for you. I wonder how much does the HERO rank account received their rewards!
Patience is the key for everyone in crypto, not only bounty hunters.
Investors who get impatience are the one who will loss. Only the strong hand will gain earnings.
152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it better to buy during ICO or Market? on: September 05, 2018, 03:33:06 PM
I noticed that many investors were afraid to buy during ICO because their reason they are cheaper can be bought on market. Especially when they found out  that a large percentage is allotted in the bounty program. Many Bounty Hunters  immediately selling token/coin even lower than the ICO price.

#Datarius



After ICO it will become cheaper because bounty hunters often sell it after they got paid.
The best way to buy is, buy some in ICO, and some after ICO in the exchanges, especially the DEX exchange usually cheaper.
Be careful when you not buying in ICO, it may not achieving soft cap and the project will failed.
153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Awareness is the biggest influence. on: September 05, 2018, 03:25:29 PM
So we all know BTC drops when people sell their coins... but the peaking is purely because of investments...

The mall in S.Korea that started accepting BTC as of this month played a massive roll in BTC's growth. Obviously this is because BTC's awareness is growing!

Surely there are ways to bring the awareness of cryto to the population.

Are there any other 'blow ups' of crypto that you have heard of? Similar to the mall...
What are you doing to spread the awareness? Smiley

Awareness is very important especially if you just start your own project or company.
In this forum bitcointalk, i believe you can create the public awareness by promoting your project to community.
Without a good marketing strategy, you cannot raise your project.
154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do we Need Altcoin? on: September 05, 2018, 03:21:26 PM
Why not ? Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency in the world, and it still need development to be better.
Altcoins are bitcoin with a different features and functions. for example ETH is the altcoin that have smart contract system for better transaction process.
155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much damaged bitcoin has brought you? on: September 05, 2018, 03:11:30 PM
I had a small scale investment on bitcoin and i invested on it when the market price is 30% higher. I never thought that market is going to fall down which results to the loss of some of my money if i will sell my bitcoin holdings now. Seeing the market price i consider it as a damage which is 30%. Well if i may ask you do you feel any damage right now? I wanna know who are those people who are investing prior to the market price fall down?

Sorry, did you mean profit ? Bitcoin and cryptocurrency has brought me many earnings already.
i believe there are many peoples that get more profit than me because cryptocurrency. If you now facing the loss, i would like to ask you, when did you buy it ? I usually buy the coins during the dips and it always working.

Which Undervalued Altcoin Token are Best to invest with it ?? I plan to hodl it from about 2 Years .. need some advices and Opinions .. Thank you .

Holding some coins with this bear market is not an easy task to do. You may need to close your ear, or even close your eyes about the price to be able to hold it till the price become good. Only peoples who have strong hand and can afford to lose, will be successful holding for some years.
If you use your money to invest but you need that money, you cannot hold your coin for long time. Always buying from your excess money.
158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin fees will NEVER come down on: August 31, 2018, 02:31:24 AM
think about it if you were a miner, and have learnt that you can charge XXX for transaction why would you be happy to again charge just one X?
It is certain the more popular coins will increase costs to catch up with bitcoin, as opposed to bitcoin lowering .
Developers are already being pressured to behave in ways that I dare not repeat.

You made this thread in december 2017, it was the time when the bitcoin price around $19k. No wonder the fee is high too.
If you look at the current fee of bitcoin, it has reduced to a low fee. We can see that the bitcoin fee can going up or down, depends on the price of bitcoin in the market. If you look another coin like ETH, the fee is depend on the network as well.
159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is now consuming 1% of the world's electricity. Is that sustainable? on: August 31, 2018, 02:10:02 AM
One year ago Bitcoin's network was consuming as much energy as Ireland. Now it has apparently doubled and now it is consuming 1% of the world's total electricity consumption.

https://digiconomist.net/bitcoin-energy-consumption

This, in a time when the world is trying to reduce carbon footprints to avoid or slow down global warming.
Is Bitcoin sustainable as it is?
I don't think so - in fact I'm sure it is not. There is a limit to insanity.
More data here:

https://digiconomist.net/bitcoin-energy-consumption

What is likely to happen next? Which are your thoughts?

Why do you think bitcoin is not sustainable ? It would be gone if bitcoin was not sustainable from the start.
we know the whole world not just only mining bitcoin, we are mining many cryptocurrency coins.
but i think we still can sustain the crypto mining, as long it still profitable to do.
160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto Market all RED today. I am so scared on: August 30, 2018, 09:12:17 AM
BTC $5800
ETH $395
NEO $29
BTC $23
XRP $0.48
...
I lost 70% of my investment. WTF is going on?? I am really scared.
Does this real the bubble will explode in 2018?
Please give some advices.
Thank you so much!

If i look at your given price above, i wonder why ETH and other altcoins price now are falling so deep while btc price stay at $6k.
I think it is quite normal for losing 70% of investment if you bought the coins at dec 2017. Always buying when the market is bad, like now.
Not when the market is green because you cannot guarantee it will stay green and keep increasing.
