161  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do bounty hunters understand cryptocurrency more than investors? on: July 23, 2018, 04:12:46 AM
Seasoned bounty hunters would have the capacity to discern if a project is a scam or not; same goes for seasoned investors. The thing is, time spent in this space will dictate how keen a person is when it comes to investing and bounty hunting, so it goes without saying that newbie investors and bounty hunters would have the same chances of joining/investing in a scam project.
162  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you tell people? on: July 23, 2018, 03:46:12 AM
I don't actively tell people about cryptocurrencies; it is much better if they learn of its existence by themselves. In that way, no expectations would be formed and only the true believers would remain for the sake of adoption.
163  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we compare Bitcoin with tulips? on: July 23, 2018, 03:30:35 AM
The whole bitcoin is a bubble have been discussed so extensively in the past that it became boring now. Bitcoin cannot be a bubble if only a few people knows about it--only a small percentage in the world knows about it.
164  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Development of Blockchain in future. on: July 23, 2018, 03:25:21 AM
No matter how advanced a technology develops is irrelevant if it is not supported by the people that its meant to serve. For example, as I see it, lightning was implemented but there aren't many people using it.
165  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could India push bitcoin to the MOON ? on: July 18, 2018, 09:42:58 PM
I doubt a single country can affect the price of bitcoin so much that it would moon; not even china can do it. It might push the price in their local exchange but that's just about it.
166  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are you now going to hold when the market is red? on: July 18, 2018, 05:03:35 AM
When the market is red, almost all investors in this space would be selling at a loss, and that does not make sense to do that. It is much easier to hold than sell at a loss; the mental strain for the latter is more unbearable based on my personal experience.
167  Economy / Speculation / Re: Great news everywhere today and Bitcoin price goes vertically up, again!!! on: July 18, 2018, 03:46:21 AM
I would choose organic growth anytime of the day compared to this vertical rise which I think is a bull trap. It's like December all over again; new investors will get burnt. On the bright side, some people will finally get gains from it after a long bear market.
168  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash looks better than Bitcoin on: July 18, 2018, 03:10:46 AM
As far as transaction fee is concerned, BCH wins over bitcoin. I'm not exactly sure who is best when it comes to the speed of confirmation though what I'm sure about is that BTC is more suitable for long term compared to BCH. The block size increase is a linear approach; that is not gonna work for a technology that demands adoption on an exponential scale.
169  Economy / Speculation / Re: the reason why bitcoin falls on: July 17, 2018, 07:39:49 AM
This might be some sort of market manipulation coupled with the abundance of newbie investors panic selling. We also might have reached the point where people already know of cryptocurrecies. IMO, the whales are plotting something again so keep them from buying cheap coins by holding more.
170  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Whats your biggest mistake up to now on: July 17, 2018, 07:32:08 AM
I was a part of electroneum bounty. I got my tokens later than most of the participants. What I did wrong was I didn't sell on December bull run when I had the chance too. I mean, I got it for free but still, knowing that I should have maxed out my profits drives me nuts whenever I think about it.
171  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to choose best ICO among many new ICOs on: July 15, 2018, 10:29:20 AM
Read the whitepaper of the project you are interested in. Then talk to the team if you have any questions. Most of the time, a good team that is approachable and is available always are a good indication of a successful project. Do not base ICO review websites; those are untrustworthy.
172  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Time for that Long? on: July 15, 2018, 10:01:42 AM
IMO, it can still dip to around 5k as the investors confidence are not yet replenished since last year's bull run. The reason for this is that the people who has a tendency to invest in cryptocurrency are leaving the market because of all the FUD.
173  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency is a trending topic all over the world? on: July 15, 2018, 09:59:45 AM
Not necessarily all over the world as there are some countries in which bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies are considered illegal. With that in mind, there'd be no chance for it to be heard by the community.

175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It is hard to detect scammed bounty campaign.. on: July 11, 2018, 12:23:36 PM
it's really sad when we are not given what we deserve bounty campaign which don't pay are really bad and it hurts moreover as we put our hardwork and time in it and the worst thing is the campaign being a total scam imagine promoting something that is not legit we really need to look into the project carefully and go through their papers and team before doing bounty and also before investing
Investors who don't do their due diligence deserves to lose their money.
Hunters who don't scrutinize a bounty they have joined deserves their time wasted.

People will get scammed at some point, still it doesn't erase the fact that it's their fault for falling into one.
176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this bearish market in July actually good? on: July 10, 2018, 12:37:42 AM
The price is unpredictable but yes, I believe that the recent bear market is beneficial in the long run. If the price were to increase indefinitely, more people will speculate that it is just a bubble and more people will think so too. I would favor organic growth any time, besides, this dip gave some people chance to accumulate.
177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if Government bans Bitcoins? on: July 09, 2018, 10:38:40 AM
I doubt any government would go that far as to reject bitcoin. They might just shut down their local exchanges but blocking all sites with relation to cryptocurrencies are very unlikely. Granted that they will do it, they can't prevent people form using bitcoin as there are many ways to do it; like what the silkroad guys are doing.
178  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin mining is costly... on: July 09, 2018, 10:07:16 AM
One thing to say mining bitcoin consumes a large amount of electricity and it would take lots of equipment to manned the mining. There should be a development in making the cost of bitcoin lower; given that lower mining cost could yield a higher profit. However, it matters on trading and exchanges.
Good thing that technology is always evolving. As the computing difficulty goes up, it would drive people to innovate more powerful GPUs. Though I've read in some articles that printing fiat and maintaining the operation of banks are more costly than mining.
