The crypto market is very volatile as seen on the past cryptocurrency charts[1], so when day trading, always take your profits when price reaches certain percentages so you would be ready when the price dips. Don't ever expect prices to go up forever.

Damn. Your site looks a lot better than I expected. Well done with your site and thanks for doing a bit of effort to help the community. Though I'd much rather prefer "cryptoflix" than "cryptflix" as cryptflix sort of sounds like a netflix for dead people and cemeteries and those stuff. Don't forget Andreas Antonopoulos videos by the way! https://www.youtube.com/user/aantonop |

The current unconfirmed transactions of 117694[1] is definitely a lot lower than we had last week(around 200k), but yea, definitely still congested. You can always use a smaller transaction fee to send your funds if you're not in a rush, unfortunately I don't think Coinbase has that feature. You'd have to use a wallet like Electrum/Copay/etc for you to be able to choose your own fees. [1] https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions |

From where did you get that link from? The first "S" and the "T" from your link is a special character. Take a look:  There is a something like dot above it. That's why you can't open the website and it's showing as a "phising". Probably a Google advertisement, the same exact way hackers create phishing sites in the past for exchanges like Bittrex, whereas hackers used the domain "blttrex.com". People need to learn to use ad blocker browser extensions. |

You probably know that a 5-10% increase in the cryptocurrency markets barely means anything. It's just the good ol market price volatility. It can easily go up 5-10% today and drop down with the same percentage tomorrow.

Personally, I'm a sneakerhead(a dude who likes sneakers very much), so I'd definitely love it if I could buy sneakers from adidas.com and nike.com with bitcoin, and not go with the tedious process of selling my bitcoin for fiat, then buying the sneakers with my bank account or PayPal. Hopefully when lightning comes around most of these famous sites will accept bitcoin as payments.

just interested in some other opinions, already have a decent variety in my portfolio. pulled the trigger on a few coins to soon and lost some profit but still in the green and learned a lot in a couple months of trading. cheapest exchange to convert usd to coins is?
Buy BTC/ETH/LTC using USD, then transfer the funds over an exchange like Binance[1] or Bittrex[2]. Then you can trade for other trading pairs. [1] https://binance.com[2] https://bittrex.com |

Should I purchase more bitcoin and or litecoin before the new year hits or after? suggestions/opinions
Why does it matter if it's before or after 2018? Just buy if you think it will go up in the future. also what is the cheapest/free exchanges to deposit us currency via bank or debt card
Check out https://coinbase.com . Remember to take out your funds as soon as you buy them, and move them to a better wallet. |

What exactly do you have problems with? You just need to go to the BTC-XRP[1] trading pair on the Bittrex market, sell your XRP for BTC, then withdraw the BTC to your Coinbase wallet. Seems a bit straightforward to me. Bids = buy offers Asks = sell offers [1] https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-XRP |

It really depends on the ad's intention. I think billboards and TV commercials are more geared towards the somewhat older crowd, as you usually don't see them use computers and or smartphones. That's why most automotive advertisements are on billboards.
When talking about cryptocurrency exchanges and services though, internet ads are definitely more effective, as the service and experience takes place on the internet anyway, and you'd definitely want your users to be able to access your service immediately that's why they use links.

Bitcoin's dominance can definitely fall to 20% or less in 2018, though it's quite unlikely as bitcoin still takes all the media publicity. This is a lot more likely to happen if the blockchain stays congested for longer. We desperately need lightning network ASAP. The core developers definitely need to work fast. We're still sitting on 156090 Unconfirmed Transactions[1], which is quite lower than it was a week ago, but is still significantly high. [1] https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactionsEdit: correction. Thanks to Samarkand for pointing it out. |

"I kinda don't know what to look for ect. OR even what my goald is." Only you can answer that to be honest. You go in to a bitcoin/cryptocurrency forum and you're going to ask us what your goal is? Quite weird, ain't it?  It depends on what you're trying to do. You can trade scam coins and still make money, as long as you don't hold those scam coins for too long. Are you late to the party? No one knows for sure, as we really can't say for sure if the price will rise or crash tomorrow. That's why you always read the "don't invest more than you're willing to lose" quote here in the forums.

- I am using Electrum. It seems you can create as many wallets as you like, is it recommend to use multiple, why would you need to?
It's up to you if you're going to use multiple wallets or not. I personally do use multiple wallets for better organization(one from campaigns, one from trading, one for my personal savings, etc etc) - If my hard drive dies and I lose everything, including Electrum, do I have to use the 'seed' to restore it? The wallets seem to be stored in some hidden folder on my mac, is it worth backing them up?
Yes. The seed itself will be enough for you to access your funds. - can you use the desktop version and the app of Electrum to access the same wallets, or are wallets specific to the device?
Yes. Everything is on the Blockchain, so you can use the same wallets for whatever device. - is saving your 'seed' digitally as an image such as a JPG safe? Especially if you were to hide it in something designed in photoshop to be more random?
No. It really is not recommended to save your seed digitally. The safest way is still the pen and paper method, as hackers have pretty much no way of stealing your seed(besides physically stealing it). |

I personally currently only use Binance[1] and Bittrex[2]; never had a single problem with both, though you might not be able to register to Bittrex immediately due to them having not enough resources to handle the influx of account registrations. They have a wide range of coin pairs too, which is a huge plus. I can't really comment on GDAX as I personally never used it. Always make sure to turn of 2FA, and don't use the same passwords with your other accounts. [1] https://binance.com[2] https://bittrex.com |

Another perfect reason to not leave your funds in exchanges. Never ever use exchanges as wallets. Only use exchanges for their one single purpose: as a cryptocurrency exchange. Nothing more, nothing less.
Really unfortunate for those people, though.

Even though the current top cryptocurrencies(btc,eth,ltc, etc) surviving in the next decades is very debatable due to numerous reasons, blockchain technology is definitely here to stay. People need to remember that bitcoin is blockchain, but blockchain is not bitcoin.

Not with bitcoin, but with cryptocurrencies in general: - Read more whitepapers of potentially good projects
- Diversify more
- Enhance my shitcoin detecting skills
- Be more involved with the cryptocurrency community in general
- Fuck ripple

Sure, bitcoin is indeed still the #1 right now. But expect that to change after a few years if we continue to have scaling problems. The development is definitely quite slower compared to other altcoins for some reason.
Not because bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency it doesn't mean that it will be the #1 cryptocurrency forever. The first ever internet search engine was the "Archie Query Form". Guess what? That search engine fell off the face of the internet and Google is the #1 right now.
