14961  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I never sold my First bitcoin. Are you also emotionally bound to bitcoin? on: May 16, 2018, 03:54:17 AM
I've always been quite emotional of letting go of my bitcoin when doing trading, but I just always tell myself that being attached to certain coins or tokens is very bad in a trading and investing perspective. With that said, when trying to sell I definitely don't sell everything. I always want to see at least a small amount on my wallet. lol

What "links" are you planning on putting anyway? Crypto YouTubers are placing referral links without any problem. Anyway, as usual, the go-to platform for any kind of videos is YouTube. Your choices are only YouTube and DTube anyway as other platforms like DailyMotion are pretty much dead anyway, but why not both? You would get more exposure that way. You don't have to choose only 1 platform.
14963  Other / Meta / Re: Got banned (7 days) will I be released? on: May 15, 2018, 04:28:09 PM
Are you sure of the reason for the ban? It's my first time that I know participation in signature campaigns causes a ban.
Can you show the ban message?

The main reasons of banned forever are copy/paste without source, Spam, and phishing links.
Next time read sticky rules first.

OP stated the reason: "unsubstantial posts + signature campaign (7 days)"

So yea, most likely posting stuff without much content(probably useless one-liners) just to gain postcount for OP's campaign that he/she joined. Probably well deserved in my opinion.
14964  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Simple Tips Keeping Your Bitcoin from Hackers. on: May 15, 2018, 03:54:48 PM
the triggering part is password haha, it's too long so i take lots of time to remembering it just in case T_T

Use a password manager like KeePass2[1]. That way, you'd only need to remember one long password(master password), then you're other passwords would be as long as it can for maximum security(at least 40 characters). Just make sure your master password is secure as well.

14965  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How to recover my lost bitcoin wallet password? on: May 15, 2018, 02:44:31 PM
This is really a bad thing,it's like forgetting a bank account password, but there's no bank to call to reset it.

Because the point is to "be your own bank". Think about it, if it was easy to recover lost bitcoin "passwords", then that would be a huge flaw that a lot of hackers can exploit. Using bitcoin and it's advantages also comes with risks, and this is one of them. It's your money anyway, why would you be so careless with your password.
14966  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hello traders on: May 15, 2018, 12:34:25 PM
There's risk because you're pretty much hoping that the prices move as you'd like it to move; but everything in general has risks anyway. Traders are trading simply because they probably know enough to make money(or are still learning to). Just as with other things, trading is a skill. To be better at that certain skill, you need to trade. You only need to control your risks so that you wouldn't lose huge percentages in a few trades.
14967  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Phished MEW - How to save the token? on: May 15, 2018, 03:34:11 AM
You can only transfer token if you have a small amount of ethereum to pay the gas fee.
There is no other way better to send a small amount of ethereum to your MEW then send your token fast.

Sending it fast enough is probably out of the equation as the bot most likely does it automatically in probably even less than a second. I would try the first solution though, the bot would probably only send out ETH if it reached a certain minimum amount.
14968  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you believe May 2018 willbe the last time that Bitcoin price is under $10000 on: May 14, 2018, 03:47:32 PM
People are also saying that we're off to a bull market soon due to consensus 2018(May 14-16), as price increases occured some time after the past consensus events. Though not because it happened in the past, it doesn't automatically mean it's going to happen again this year.

What TryNinja said, but preferrably ran on a freshly installed linux operating system without ethernet and wifi drivers; just to be extra sure. Always take as much extra safety precautions when you're planning on safely storing good amounts of money.
14970  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin's volatility is a non-issue on: May 14, 2018, 05:47:39 AM
Bitcoin being volatile as a currency is slightly an issue in my opinion. I mean, in a business point of view, you wouldn't want to receive a $50 payment that could be $40 tomorrow(though it could also be $60). But there's almost nothing we can do about it in my opinion. Volatility will decrease as adoption comes.
14971  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Mining to pay my computer off? on: May 12, 2018, 05:27:59 PM
If you're planning on doing mining to pay off the costs of your whole rig, then personally I'd rather just get a job. Mining is just going to wear out and degrade your computer faster. Though it completely depends on what coin your planning on mining. Personally though? I'd rather do something else to make back the money than to do mining.

The only browser miner I know is Coinhive[1]. Though it's an XMR miner, not an ETH miner. But you could easily simply trade your XMR for ETH using shapeshift or exchanges, so in the end you still end up with ETH. But yea, it's really really unlikely for you to make profit off this method.

It depends. Are you planning on using a wallet that would access your ERC20 tokens too? or only your ETH? Check out Lunary[1]. It looks pretty sleek and clean. Though you can only use it to access you ETH. If you want to access ERC20 tokens, you still need to use MyEtherWallet.

14975  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Comparison of buying a cup of coffee with crypto on: May 12, 2018, 11:24:47 AM
It is true that bitcoins experience delays in transactions or transfer in comparison with other crypts that have a fairly fast acceleration.

Bitcoin has been pretty fast and cheap since a few months already, due to the increase in segwit adoption and batching. Bitcoin was just slow and expensive last December-February. Everything is getting better now, as more and more bitcoin services are using segwit addresses.
14976  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Comparison of buying a cup of coffee with crypto on: May 12, 2018, 04:14:28 AM
This is BS. $4 fees for 10 min transactions? This was in the past. With segwit adoption increasing and lightning network coming, this image is irrelevant. Also, speed is not everything. I'd prefer a slower coin than a coin that is significantly more centralized and cryptographically insecure.
14977  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Best wallet ? on: May 12, 2018, 03:38:46 AM
I think 2 best online wallets for beginners
1. Coinbase (online exchange)
2. Blockchain.info (online wallet)

Nope. Coinbase should only be use as a platform for buying and selling BTC, and not as a wallet. Also, there are tons of good software wallet alternatives to Blockchain.info. Blockchain.info's wallet doesn't even use SegWit.
14978  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What service missing in cryptoworld? on: May 12, 2018, 02:02:26 AM
There is a lack of decentralized exchanges. It would make sense to have much more of them because of the nature of bitcoin and crypto.

or the lack of good and easy to use decentralized exchanges. Personally when I first used EtherDelta, it was a UI/UX nightmare. If you have to do a Google search on a exchange's functionalities then the UI/UX isn't noob-friendly enough. Hopefully Binance's decentralized exchange will bring out something good.
14979  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is going on at this bitcoin address? on: May 11, 2018, 05:52:15 PM
If it was a hacker, I would have expected them to just empty the whole wallet.

If it was a hacker, it's really possible that the hacker is waiting for your friend to deposit good amounts of crypto to the address, for the hacker to have a bigger heist in the future. Personally I'd just transfer the funds over to another wallet. I'd take every safety precaution I can when talking about my investments.
14980  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China and Bitcoin taking vows again? on: May 11, 2018, 05:35:31 PM
Today one of the biggest manufacturers of mobile phone i.e. Huawei is pre installing btc wallets in their phones and that's a huge development and if I must say the Chinese are back with a bang. I'm expecting this shall surge the prices in the coming days.

What do you make of it, will prices rise (my guess yes), or a ploy to sell their product?

I personally don't think so. People are used to buying phones with lots of bloatware in it(those apps that are there that you can't uninstall, and that you never actually use). This bitcoin app they're adding just might fall unto the bloatware category. Yes, it's going to be there and people are going to see it. But I don't think much people would actually act on it and be curious about it. Any publicity is good publicity though, so I'd still say this is good news.
