What if the unofficial will become official someday knowing that bitcoin nowadays become more popular especially to those people who earned a living coming from bitcoin. Buying a pizza using a bitcoin is very interesting news that I heard once I am still a newbie.

Spending millions of money just to buy a pizza is a very crazy move especially if we are the one to judge from the situation. But this happening also help me to understand well how important to become patient and trust the currencies that we think has the potential to grow someday.

If one of the biggest country like China will likely to contribute in bitcoin as what you have stated then it is a good information to each and everyone of us who have invested also in bitcoin.

But I am not that sure if the reason behind the increase is only the contribution of Chinese investors because if it is the scenario then there is a big possibility that they can easily manipulate the bitcoin price which is not a good news especially to small investors. So i'm sure that there are still other reasons why bitcoin prices continue to rise aside from the one that you tackle. 

There is a big possibility that blockchain will be the perfect solution to our problems especially in taking out the middle man. Once middle man is already taken out, it will be easier for us to control everything by our own.

You have stated the advantages of blockchain which is very useful especially to those people that didn't know yet the use of blockchain. Blockchain have plenty of uses especially if it will be use in good purposes while blockchain will be worse also if someone will try to use it has a bad intentions.  

So far I never heard that there are scammers who returned the money to the owner. I guess this kind of scenario will never happen in the future especially that someone who steals really need an easy money and once they can steal from someone they will surely use it.

Money is everything in this world, you can buy anything that has a value if you have the money therefore it is very rare that someone will return the money especially the scammer. As you can see, scammers are also very patient and it doesn't matter for them whether how long it takes for them to create some code to bypass the other security in order to steal some money. Therefore it is not so easy to steal money from other and that is the main reason why the scammers will not return the money that they successfully stole.

Most of the investors are quite good in researching and digging some useful knowledge in order for them to decide what projects to invest on.
These type of investors are professionals or an experienced one, what we need to worry are those newbie who don't have an experienced yet as they will surely be one of the victim in this kind of tactics (hype).

Though hype is part of marketing strategy in any projects but you need to distinguish also the right one to follow and right one to avoid.

Crypto currency cannot please everyone especially those newbie who don't know anything yet and will start to invest whatever they likes without thinking about the risk. Anytime is opportunity if you really know and understand how the market flows but if you have no idea about it then it is better that you will stop spending your money to any investment that you will surely cry once you lost your money.

Here is a little information that you can at least use in your future investment. Bearish market = Time to buy more/stock as many as you want while Bull run = Time to sell all your investment. If you follow the market really closely, you can say that the market is only about bearish and bull run then vice versa.

I am not sure if it is worthy as it will really take time to do the KYC if it will be provided via video call. But if the team behind the project has the resources to do this kind of KYC in a short period of time then I guess it is a very good idea though.

But I am wondering if there are like 15k participants that need to proceed with KYC. It will surely take time before the KYC will be finish as they need also to assign what time they are going to do the video call as not all the participants are free anytime. In terms of apps, there are plenty of apps that we can rely on like skype and etc.

Of course especially if you really know the project from the start and you are confident that their team can do the impossible to possible. Most of the traders also trade alts that are not listed in top 100 as you can hit a jackpot once the price will start to moon.

The risk is always there, if you are not careful in investing then the risk is very high but if you study and research the projects that have the potential to grow then the risk is very low.

I am not sure why you have said that BTC has set a new high, have you forgotten the price of BTC last 2017 before it goes down. If you mean that BTC is starting to crawl from it's bearish price then I guess it is acceptable as the price already reach to 8k$ from 3k$ but as of now there is a little decrease of price.

I guess you have used a wrong words in your sentence, I am not really sure if you are still a newbie or you are only promoting TNB upon posting this thread.

You hit the most important part in holding or a long term investment. Long term investment if very critical if you didn't know when you are going to sell your investments. Knowing when or hitting the right time in selling your investment will give you a lot of profit especially in a long term investment.

But this is the common problem to almost all of the newbies who are starting to invest in a long term one. Either they will sell it because they read or hear some bad rumors about their investment or either they are going to sell it earlier to the target price.

Of course, that is what is currently happening right now the slowly increase of price not only in Eth but almost all the tokens and coins. There is a big chance that it will hit even 400$ by the end of the month because there is only a very short decrease then a good amount of increase again.

500$ before the end of 2019 is a very cute prediction, it can even surpass it and if the market will continue to grow there is a big possibility that Eth will reach to 1500$ by the end of 2019.

Many are complaining because they were able to receive and airdrops that has no value at all. In your part, you can consider that you are lucky or you know what you are doing.

Picking airdrops is like 1:9 ratio, 9 useless tokens and there is only 1 that has value where you can either hold or sell. And if you have good source of airdrops that you can recommend to all the unlucky ones. I am sure that they will be happy especially if they can earn also from airdrops.

Most of crypto lovers have plenty of plans and of course one of it is to obtain profit in the end especially if we are going to engage for a long term investment.

This type of investment really needs a patient and control so you can hold your investment whatever happens but you need to make sure also that you can set your target goal when you are going to sell your investment. As plenty of investors loss their funds because they are setting a goal which is good to be true, like buy bitcoin for 3k$ and sell it once it will reach to 50k$.

I see that you are a long term investor and I am pretty sure that you already know how the market flows as you are investing your money for 5 years already.
I saw also that your strategy is quite good as you are putting your investment in different currencies which is good in order to lessen the chance of losing your funds in case one of your investment will go down.

But if I were you, I will put 9k to bitcoin then 8k to etherium and the rest will be divided to XRP, LTC and Stellar.

Yes bitcoin have plenty of advantages that is very helpful to each and everyone of us who really support bitcoin from the start of it's discovery until now.
Many are buying bitcoin already and as you can see the price is keep on increasing though there are a little drop but in the following days it will increase again.

I haven't invested LTC in the past but I am sure LTC has a future especially that it belongs to the top 10 in coinmarketcap.

First of all, the more the better. If we have many exchanges then the project owners can choose the best exchanges for them to list their coin or token.
But if you are asking why there are many exchanges aside from coinmarketcap? It is because launching an exchange is very profitable.

New exchange will surely face a lot of hindrances and problems but there are plenty of new exchanges also that are slowly rising to the top because of their good marketing strategy, so everything will depend to the team behind the project.

Pag nag upgrade ka to Level 3, ang magiging limit mo kada araw ay 400k tapos unlimited kana sa kada buwan tsaka kada taon. Mas maganda pag nakapag level 3 ka para hindi na problema ang cash out at cash in limit.

400k kada araw, mataas na yan kompara sa 400k na limit mo para sa isang taon pag level 2 ka palang. Din pag level 2 ka palang may limit ka din kada buwan 30k yata yon kase nag upgrade na ako sa level 3 para hindi na ako maproblema sa cash in at cash out. Madali lang naman mag upgrade sa level 3, sa akin nga barangay clearance lang ginamit ko.

We cannot really predict what will happen in the future but in current condition of ETH right now and the the market condition there is a big possibility that Ethereum price will continue to grow until the end of 2019 based on current market condition.

Though quarter 4 of 2019 is very crucial as there are plenty of holiday seasons that will likely to affect the holders of any altcoin but there is still a big chance that what happened last 2017 will happen again.

Yes this is what really is happening right now, bear market is changing to bull run season. The best strategy to earn a good amount of profit will depend to your especialty, if you are trader then it is good to trade daily right now. Buy low then sell high, though I am not a professional trader so I am not really sure whether you will like my strategy.

If you are a long time holder then stocking large amount of altcoins is a good option especially if you have a good amount of money for investment but make sure that the altcoins that you buy have the potential also.

I cannot say that ETH is a good contender to bitcoin though ETH is in 2nd position in coinmarketcap who has the nearest position to replace the bitcoin. But if you have followed them for a long time then you can notice that ETH price will not move especially if the bitcoin price is not moving also.

In other words, ETH price is dependent to bitcoin price therefore in my conclusion there is a below 3% possibility that ETH can replace bitcoin in the future.
