141  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Promoting cryptocurrency through altcoin on: December 19, 2019, 11:01:44 PM
When you hear of cryptocurrency what mostly comes in the mind of people is Bitcoin and that's people that are not all to familiar with cryptocurrency.
In as much as Bitcoin controls a high level of cryptocurrency, altcoins are indispensable.

To my little knowledge on cryptocurrency there are altcoins for a lot of uses, some for medical use, some for advertising, some for gaming and so on. With people having interest in this areas to spread cryptocurrency we can take advantage of this opportunity it doesn't have to be all about Bitcoin all the time.
Though the problem with altcoins is the turn out of the coin after wards and the responsiveness of the owners. But if investors or crypto addicts can engage more in altcoins this will boost altcoins and get more organisers active and spread cryptocurrency more
Indeed, nobody is guilty about it. Confidence in the altcoin market is beginning to reduce and we can easily see it in BTC. Everybody immediately directs to BTC in such cases to keep their investment more robust. So, altcoins do not meet expectations. The projects themselves should take a step in this regard. Otherwise, nobody wants to lose their most valuable thing.

hello everyone I see that much of traders company and wheels speak about xrp that could hit 28$ I would like to know what do you think about is this possible ?
$28? You may have to wait a little longer for this price increase. Because a coin with a price of $0.19 and a volume of $1.6 billion is not easy like experts say. In this uncertainty, this price is so pretentious, there must be a reason for the experts to rely on. What it can be?
143  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Highly Anticipated Ethereum Upgrade Could Be Delayed for Years on: December 19, 2019, 10:08:44 PM
Ethereum's pivotal redesign, Eth 2.0, is likely still three to five years from execution.

Rather than hurrying into a general redesign, engineers for the open-source blockchain stage are as of now chipping away at a suite of present moment fixes to improve the wellbeing and sturdiness of the system, as indicated by another blog entry at Ethereum.org

What do you guys have to say about this? Many are waiting for this upgrade before bitcoin halving, seems its never going to happen
I do not agree with the opinion that it will never happen. If you look at the developments in ETH, the team is always working hard to do better, but obviously this time there were some difficulties. From what I have read, there will be a delay in the expected time for some reason and they need to have an opinion meeting about this. They also know that they can not survive without development. So make sure they will do their best.
144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your preparation for 2020? on: December 19, 2019, 09:28:51 PM
Even if the price does not increase next year, I do not think I am gonna run out of hope about crypto. It can survive as long as it has faithful supporters like us. Anyway, there is the idea of an increase due to halving. But still, do not get too hoped, the obscurity can ruin your dreams. Just believe in BTC and so on.

Honestly, I did not make a special preparation for next year and I do not think I will. Just as I have been investing so far.
145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are Legal Risks in Crypto World ? on: December 18, 2019, 10:44:03 PM
Although crypto is still illegal in most places today but can still be used. Acceptaning it legally by governments will only help someones remain at peace with the crypto. The cryptocurrency was not created for governments to accept, on the contrary "original" cryptocurrencies exist to support our economic freedom. But we still have not learned how to behave it.
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance USDT Lending (Fixed 6% interest for 1 month period) on: December 18, 2019, 10:22:08 PM
Hmmm, 6% monthly is a huge money which is not feasible. Otherwise everyone can just put their money and go to sleep. It should be yearly which is understandable.  What happens when exchange gets hacked, are the loans backed up by anything!
Earnings are monthly, check out the link below. However, I have no idea about the lost funds, but mostly big exchanges like Binance pay back the stolen money from the cold wallet.
If you are looking for lending why not to try another lending platform like Nexo?
Nexo offers even higher interest, upto 8% on all stable coins. Never heard about the platform? It is probably the biggest crypto lending platform with more than 300 000 active users! So why are you waiting for limited slots on Binance?  Roll Eyes Cheesy

Quote
Earn 8% interest per year which is significantly higher than traditional bank deposits and alternative investments. Nexo offers you full flexibility by allowing you to add and withdraw funds at any time.

If you are talking about this, it is annual investment, but Binance's offer is a monthly gain of 6%. For more: https://www.binance.com/en/lending
147  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Decentralization or Scalability? on: December 18, 2019, 10:04:52 PM
If the value of today's crypto space with USD is removed, %1-2 of the community will be left behind. The majority is only interested in earning more. Decentralization remains in the background, as there are priority demands in such a system. Indeed, it may be possible to carry both in one basket, but if one is not superior than the another.
148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will centralization keep its dominance on the crypto industry forever? on: December 18, 2019, 09:49:26 PM
It's been a decade since crypto's inception, yet the whole industry is still dominated by big players in the same. Most services are centralized, which often serve as the gateway between the real world and the digital one. People get into Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies through centralized exchanges these days. While decentralized solutions still exist, they're not comparable as their centralized counterparts in terms of performance and user experience.

Given that it's still 2019 and centralized exchanges are controlling crypto trades worldwide, it seems likely that the trend will continue for many years to come. Unless decentralized services improve over time, the entire crypto industry will be centralized as we know it. I'd say that 90% of the crypto industry is centralized, while the rest is decentralized. If people don't care about decentralization at all, then this will be the norm forever.
Unless we use cryptocurrency as it should be, decentralization will only be an unnecessary word written in WP. Trading is not a bad thing, we all do it, but today's crypto has no title other than the "trading whore". We all forgot the crypto itself as chasing centralized money, as long as we are so, as those who carers, expectations about the future decreases.
Which is why, I'm starting to wonder if centralization will keep its dominance on the crypto industry forever? What are your thoughts? Huh
To counteract this, the values have to be zero. Then there will be noone who hopes to gain from the crypto and those who want to keep it on the centralized exchanges. Only those who really evaluate cryptocurrency.

Note: Do not get me wrong, I have no intention of scolding anyone, I also say these words to myself along with everyone.
149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Gaming Is Key to the Mass Adoption of Crypto on: December 18, 2019, 09:15:35 PM
Undoubtedly, even if this is a small sector, the transition to blockchain means more space in terms of adoption. But is gaming a key? I am not sure. Because gaming is a sector where young people are mostly interested, and I do not think they are uninformed about crypto or blockchain. Instead continuing with a sector that is far from such innovations will cause to better results.
150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think? on: December 17, 2019, 11:00:07 PM
We go down to 3, then again back to 7) It is difficult to guess, of course, but in any case I keep bitcoin because for me at the moment it is the most confident digital asset.

Not only you, the majority is in obscurity. It may be possible to estimate prices, but these estimates are mostly unrelated to prices. All we know is a couple of supports, which the most powerful can break in 1 second. But despite all this, I do not think it is going to $3k because there is a "new supporter" such as halving.
151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to introduce crypto currency to newbies on: December 17, 2019, 10:40:51 PM
In your opinion, what is an effective way to introduce crypto currency for newbies, and how important do you think?
I think platform like the Brave browser are a very effective way, this is important because newbies are the future?
Give all your thoughts here
I do not think Brave is a good choice for explaining blockchain or cryptocurrency, giving reward or prohibition of ads makes it better than others, but these features have little to do with cryptocurrency. To describe crypto, talk about its features, its advantages, its ease, its reliability. Already if someone has not heard about it, the "invisible" money will surely interest him. IMO crypto is not a currency that is easy to describe with a sentence.
152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for bounties on: December 17, 2019, 10:23:32 PM
Hello guys, I'm looking for a new bounty to join. May I have some suggestions/recommendations?
Profit should not be the main factor to focus when looking for a bounty. Most of those who promise huge profits are the reason for regret at the end. Considering the current situation, you will encounter a lot of scam projects, but do not give up. If you agree with this, you can continue by looking at the bounty section. I do not want to make you regretful because of my choice.
153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: is this gift right? Send 0.5 ETH = 1ETH on: December 17, 2019, 09:58:28 PM
is this gift right? Send 0.5 ETH = 1ETH
I have never heard about a reliable source of giving such gifts. On Telegram and Twitter every day we see this kind of scammers, and the ones "who have won and thanked". Remember, noone is going to give you gifts like this when money is so valuable. I am sorry, but everything is not so easy. If you want to "win", you should take advantage of your own effort.
154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stablecoin regulations and their future implications on: December 17, 2019, 09:33:24 PM
Perhaps this regulation will cause projects that claim to be backed up, such as USDT, as they should be. However, this may cause some projects and regular stablecoin users to hit the wall. Projects will face stricter rules, which will surely affect its users too. It is best to wait, and see what the rules are like and are opposite which side.
155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Why does Bitfinex ignore Dogecoin? on: December 16, 2019, 10:16:44 PM
Actually, I do not have an idea, maybe noone asked for it.
Man DogeCoin in't so great, it' just a one cryto among hundreds of others.
There is shit loads of great alts / coins better than dodge& have 0 support from those fancy exchanges.
DogeCoin solves nothing, it' just a community driven coin created in the right time back then, that's what it is.
As if all of the listed have been saving the world. lol
Although Doge was created as a joke, speediness and charging low fee is its features which have not in most today's coins. The average daily volume of 30-50 million means a lot.
156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: $100 million worth of ETH? on: December 16, 2019, 09:48:02 PM
It was a great decision for them, without any doubt. But I can hardly imagine that the crypto market got advantages from it. After such a solid amount of ETH was sold, the market crashed and ETH fell to 80 bucks per coin.
Firstly, this amount was sold in January 2018 and this did not seem to had an effect on the price being $80 after 1 year. Also, I do not think he used exchanges to sell ETH, because it was enough to influence the price.


But there is another situation. Lee, founder of Ltc, made a similar statement. It's the end of the bull right in front of us!
I do not think it will have the same result. IIRC, while Lee sold all his LTCs, Buterin only sold some. And Buterin made a statement about it almost two years later.
157  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: $1.5 million worth of USDC was minted again! on: December 16, 2019, 09:29:10 PM
Stablecoins are not preferable by me, but it may be useful for those who find it useful. More mintage is not good or bad, it means more demand from my point of view. However, charging penny fee for million dollar transactions will be an advantage for future development.

But, in order to compete with USDT, coinbase's coin needs to grow more, there is almost a 100x difference between 24 hour volumes.
158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 100 Most Influential People In Crypto on: December 16, 2019, 08:58:53 PM
Satoshi Nakamoto not on the list? Cheesy

Thing is, people with the most influence are anonymous.

I personally know of 2-3 who pull most of the strings, yet they're not mentioned here
I hoped to see Satoshi first in the list too. Gavin Andresen's name is on the list, but Satoshi Nakamoto is not, which is unacceptable. Apparently, there are only identified people. But although Satoshi is not identified, the BTC he created dominates the entire crypto world. Please correct the list.
159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best masternode project, and why? on: December 16, 2019, 08:18:36 PM
A masternode is a good way to earn passively, so is staking, but I prefer masternodes, as having your computer running all day isn't my thing.
Masternodes seem to have been forgotten and replaced by staking. There is no need to run a computer in staking. I guess you misunderstood staking, so all you have to do is invest and wait. That is why PoS is more preferred. PoS was created as an alternative to PoW and offers much more superiority. The more amount you have in your account, the more mining power you have compared to this PoW.
160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin could reach $100,000 in 2020: Ross Ulbricht on: December 15, 2019, 11:04:37 PM
I totally agree. Ross has been closed for years so he lost his market intuition. The only information he bases on is probably not much of what allows him to read or watch. We should not trust the predictions of individuals and certainly not those who have been in prison for years.
Do not be so negative about prisoners. Although Ross Ulbricht was busy with illegal work, he probably knew about BTC before all of us and was knowledgeable enough to create something on the darkweb. Also, I do not think he predicted $100k to impress somebody to invest. This is everyone's own choice, if you do not want to, do not.
