Your thread is like you're promoting for Trezor, and you focus on hardware wallet as the best wallet options.
Ok, about hardware wallet i have used both Trezor and Ledger Nano S and my experience is that, Ledger Nano S is easier and more convenience to use than Trezor.
Ledger also support more coins than Trezor,

Because hardware wallets are really the best wallet option in general.

Also, the Trezor or the Ledger Nano S being the better hardware wallet all depends on personal preference. Some might prefer the Ledger Nano S due to having support for more coins, whereas some people might prefer Trezor's UI, etc etc.
14643  Economy / Speculation / Re: What do you think the cryptocurrency market will disappear in five years? on: June 27, 2018, 03:33:55 AM
First off, your topic title doesn't make any sense.

Also, the markets will not simply disappear just because of volatility. If you at least did a slight bit of research, you would almost automatically know that the cryptocurrency market is heavily volatile. This is something that shouldn't be realized later on. Yes, the prices do rise and drop very fast; but some people do take advantage of this volatility to make money.

Even though it's debatable if bitcoin will rise or crash in the future, markets simply don't "disappear". Markets rise and crash. Even if bitcoin does a nosedive to double or triple digits the markets will still be there, as some people are definitely willing to pay significantly low prices.

Hardware Wallet:When you buy a hardware wallet(trezor) you will be given a seed words that you need to write for this is the thing you will be needing just in case you lost or broke your hardware wallet.

You need to make this clear.

The Trezor company itself won't give you your recovery seed. The recovery seed will be randomly generated for you by the Trezor device itself. So if ever you receive a device with a recovery seed pre-written in the box, it's best if you resend the device back. To be 100% sure, always purchase hardware wallets from their official sites only. Not from random Amazon sellers.
 

Thanks for the mention. I will edit it

Great. We really need to be extra sure on that part. Because some people has their funds stolen because the hardware wallet they purchased has a pre-written recovery seed on the paper.

I sure damn wish bitcoin's price is higher, but the price drop didn't really cause any "damage".

Why do I hold bitcoin? Because I'm bullish on it long term, and I know the risks(volatility, etc) I'm going to get in to when investing in bitcoin. The drop right now is irrelevant if you think bitcoin is going to be higher in price long-term. It's just more of a slight inconvenience than "damage".

Exactly. It is just difficult especially on new comers to see their portfolio bleeding a lot that many of them considered selling at huge losses. This is the problem with people that are unprepared mentally and financially. I also heard some people that are new into crypto but risked too much money that they cannot actually afford to lose.

This generally what happens when people just simply FOMO in and buy in just because of the hype, without any knowledge whatsoever on what they're trying to get in to. I couldn't even count how many people were asking me on how to invest in bitcoin last late December.

and a signed message to prove that you actually own the address and the coins in it.

14651  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ICO, need help on: June 26, 2018, 01:35:23 PM
Sorry if I sound harsh, but honestly if you'd have to ask if you should do an ICO or not, then you shouldn't be doing ICOs or running your own cryptocurrency in general in the first place. Though you definitely have to give us more information, as saying that you will  "migrate 3 applications to d-apps" is really bland. We don't even know what your applications are about.

AsicVault’s custom chip equipped with “crypto accelerators” provides 1000 times better security than any other hardware wallet

That's a huge-ass claim right there. Reading the information on their site, I felt like I was reading a buzzword-heavy ICO whitepaper. Makes me a bit skeptical. Though I won't immediately come to conclusions of course. Time will tell if this is actually a good hardware wallet.

Also, 200 EUR.. hmm.
14653  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Best wallet for NEO based bounties? on: June 26, 2018, 01:19:39 PM
As always, I would always prefer using hardware wallets when holding good amounts of NEO and NEO tokens. But if you're just planning on holding small amounts of NEO/tokens, then your best bet would probably be the NEON wallet[1].

is this a desktop wallet? if our hard disk damage will we lost tokens stored on this?

You can install it on your computer or on your mobile phones(iOS/Android). You will not lose your funds if ever your hard disk fails if you have backed up the private keys. So make sure to do so.

14655  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to take the risk in trading? on: June 26, 2018, 11:42:54 AM
I'm not a daytrader per se, but you can't totally eliminate the risks. There will always be risks as no one knows with 100% guarantee how the markets will move. The way traders make money is to take advantage of the odds (e.g. if you think there's a 65% chance that x coin will increase to a certain price, then take that risk. taking in to consideration that you could also lose the trade, hence you only allocate a small percentage of your bankroll to the trade depending on how confident you are).

14657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash looks better than Bitcoin on: June 26, 2018, 11:36:31 AM
Which coin is better(BTC/BCH) is subjective.

Both coins have their own ways/solutions for scaling. Some prefer BTC's scaling solution(small blocks, off-chain txs), whereas some prefer BCH's scaling solution(big blocks, on-chain txs).

People should stop shitting on each sides. May the best coin win.

There are already so much newbie-focused groups already. We have r/BitcoinBeginners[1], we already have the Beginners & Help section here on bitcointalk, and other communities and forums. Why is there a need to create another group??

14659  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What was it like for you being a total bitcoin newbie? on: June 26, 2018, 04:03:11 AM
What was it like? Just the same as being a newbie at any kind of skill/profession. The feeling of not knowing a lot of things. But this can easily be fixed by just simply reading a lot and doing a lot of research. Everybody goes through the newbie phase. The question is, are you willing to spend time to get out of the "newbie" phase?

I'm in no way claiming that I'm an expert though. I've been in the crypto space for almost 2 years and I still feel like a newbie. So much stuff to learn.
14660  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When you think of currency what will come to your mind? on: June 26, 2018, 02:53:15 AM
To answer your topic question, I still think of USD, PHP, GDP, and other fiat currencies as money. Simply because fiat money is still the widely used currency worldwide. Still have huge hopes for BTC though.

Also, it's funny how we're getting so much positive news and adoption this year, but still the prices refuse to go up. If this was last year a single positive news pumps the prices by at least 10%.
