Can you atleast give more information about your group? We've had enough pump & dump groups here.

what is group, you want create dump and pump group, or give signal
how much accurate, because if not accurate only you can get advantage and get much profit

There is no such thing as "accurate" or "inaccurate" on pump and dump schemes. As long as the group owner convinces a good number it's members to buy a certain cryptocurrency, the price will definitely go up. That's why they're called pump and dump groups, and not cryptocurrency price predictors; because that's what they do. They pump the prices.

You just said it yourself. If experienced traders have a sort of "secret" technique, why would they reveal these secrets if people will know about it?  Tongue

You don't need "secret trading techniques" to profit from trading. You just need to follow some of the most common trading advice:
1. Never ever panic buy/panic sell.
2. Don't join pump & dump schemes.
3. It's almost always a bad idea to buy on all-time-highs.
4. Be patient.  "FUCK. NEO's price dropped by $2! SELL!!" no. just no.
5. Don't go all in on one cryptocurrency. Diversify.

Simple eh? Nope. These things are easier said than done.  Tongue

I definitely wouldn't want to look suspicious. This might come of as a turnoff for innocent people wanting to use mixers. Undecided
Because only a criminal would want some privacy.

I get what you mean. But what I was trying to say is that non-criminals would probably stay away from mixers because of the fear of being suspicious to the feds or whatever government entity. Anyway, maybe I'm just overly paranoid and overthinking stuff  Lips sealed.

Non criminals staying away based on your position will give credence to the misconception that mixing services is meant for criminals alone but that will be wrong even if I not been a criminal but value my privacy uses mixing services even if feds comes after me, they would probably do some investigation into my activities before coming at me and if they found nothing incriminating will they still go ahead and also I have not read anywhere that its illegal to send my coins to a mixing service.

You all provided good counterarguments for what I said, so kudos to you guys. I was just pointing out what might be the misconception and or what reasons a casual bitcoin holder/user might have on why they would possible stay away from mixers because of some of the reasons I pointed out. Cheers.

Some sources are just trying to spread fud.
I've seen multiple articles saying bitcoin is banned in China now  Roll Eyes

But I don't believe the government has setup this plan to buy "cheap" bitcoins lol.

Alot of FUD, yea, but I think this time people are spreading too much ignorance. China banned ICOs, but people are reacting as if China banned blockchain technology or cryptocurrencies in general, it's surreal. It just shows how much people invested in the crypto-economy are totally ignorant on what is happening to the crypto space. If anything else, I actually think the Chinese government is doing us a favor here. Most ICOs are just cashgrabs and scams anyway. It's funny how the Chinese government has to make the move to prevent ignorant investors from investing on shitcoins.  Roll Eyes
16906  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Btc or fiat: which is best to try maximize while trading on: September 06, 2017, 03:40:07 PM
Personally use Tether USD. You want to compare to something less volatile otherwise you can lose with fluctuation.

I actually don't like Tether at all.
at first sight it seems the most convenient but when you pay more attention to its details you can clearly see that using USDT is adding an additional risk to your investment. it is not decentralized like cryptocurrencies so you can't really use it freely, also it is not promised to stay at $1 and a simple swing can mean a huge loss on your part which nobody covers or cares. for example we saw the big dip that it had when bitfinex was hacked last year.

This. Tether has been very shady eversince. The thing is, tether is not actually backed by anything. It's completely stated on Tether's TOS:

"There is no contractual right or other right or legal claim against us to redeem or exchange your Tethers for money. We do not guarantee any right of redemption or exchange of Tethers by us for money."

Also, like last week, $25,000,000 worth of tethers are generated. They're simply just creating tether out of thin air. Sketchy af. I personally only use tether(USDT) when making quick trades. I'm definitely not keeping them for more than a few days.

Here's an interesting read on Tether(USDT): https://hackernoon.com/the-curious-tale-of-tethers-6b0031eead87

no.1 Genesis-mining  Wink  since yr 2014

Always make sure to completely read the main post before commenting:
Is there any legit bitcoin mining site? where i can mining without any invest. I am new in mining so please suggest some legit mining site.

But yea if I would go cloud mining(even though I never will), I'd probably with genesis mining. Just because there's proof that they actually have a datacenter and graphics cards firing up for mining. Unfortunately cloud mining is far from profitable unless you have alot of referrals.

16910  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Suggest Legit mining site. on: September 06, 2017, 11:07:47 AM
You're looking for a cloud mining site whereas you can mine without an investment? are you serious? Why would a legitimate business rent out their hashpower to random internet people for free? It doesn't take too much wits to realize that. Want to earn a bit of bitcoin through mining? Go buy some asics or some graphics cards. That's it.
16911  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why do they keep saying bitcoin is illegal? on: September 06, 2017, 05:52:51 AM
Can you link us to those "topics" saying that bitcoin is illegal? I don't know what forum you're visiting since I haven't read similar posts in a while.

but the goverment obviously can not track our Bitcoin because they can not,
Bitcoin known as an anonymity assets

Government entities can possibly track your bitcoin if they wanted, especially if you're using bitcoin services such as Coinbase or even simply when purchasing something legal or illegal online. Bitcoin isn't totally anonymous, it's only anonymous to a certain extent. That's one of the small downsides of the blockchain being public.
16912  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not let Chinese gov take free money off you on: September 06, 2017, 04:12:39 AM
China banned bitcoin like 5 times in the past, this "news" isn't even news nor has it anything to do with the recent correction in the market. People take profit in any market and that is what is happening.

The regulation calls all these fundraising techniques "illegal" when that is something they just came up with right now and will likely blow over as soon as they see how stupid their decisions are.

We can't do nothing against china. They think they can control bitcoin community, but this won't happen, never-ever. We'll be keep being free and support our digital assets. They may ban it, forbide it, we don't care.

The future will be brighter than ever for bitcoin and us.

China didn't do any direct harm against bitcoin. They just banned ICOs due to so much new ICOs opening that are obvious cashgrabs. I'm for their decision, because most people don't see that alot of those ICOs are only cashgrabs and scams. So it's pretty much the Chinese government helping the community not get scammed, not the other way around. I mean, people react as if China banned cryptocurrencies.
16913  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not let Chinese gov take free money off you on: September 05, 2017, 01:20:06 PM
I think this is a Chinese government regulation that keeps its people from being deceived by ICO. We see a lot of ICO emerging and worrying. All the money holders interested in joining, this kind of worry that the banking world in China is not stable.
just a stupid opinion that I give. Sorry. Smiley

Ugh. this. I see the point of view of the Chinese government. There are sooo much new and soon to open ICOs that it's getting pretty obvious why plenty of ICOs are opening. It really is easy cash for them. You don't even need a product! You just need a Wordpress/Wix site, spend a few days on the whitepaper, create a "team" that consists of non-real people, hype it up a bit on social media with some paid ads on some crypto-related website, then you're good to go. Not to mention a good percentage of those ICOs will most likely disappear in a few months or a few years.
16914  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Traders; what do you look for on: September 05, 2017, 11:55:36 AM
  • Good technology in general. Something that can change or enhance a certain industry.
  • A decent team(with real team members). Some ICOs I've seen has members that I couldn't find a single social media profile of. Not even LinkedIn. Automatically shady.
  • Low coin percantage holding from the developers.
  • Isn't a straight off copy of an existing cryptocurrency. I'm fine with forking a certain coin and enhancing/changing it in a way, but not a straight ripoff.
  • Has a decent roadmap.
  • ICOs that aren't a year long. ehem  Roll Eyes              
                                                   
16915  Other / Off-topic / Re: an Admonition to Bitcoin Newbies on: September 05, 2017, 03:17:39 AM
It's shocking, really. Bitcoin is becoming less and less of a currency and more and more a store of value.

Oh definitely. As of now atleast we're making somewhat progress in terms of transaction fees and time. But it's still not as good as it used to be.
Remember the Western Union vs Bitcoin picture that's been circulating like last year? Welp, we're nowhere near those advertised numbers anymore.

Before anyone tells me that I can lower the fees, yes we can. But we're sacrificing the duration of how long the transaction gets confirmed. If we need to wait hours and hours just to send using cheap tx fees, then we're nowhere near being a "peer to peer cash system".

16916  Other / Off-topic / Re: an Admonition to Bitcoin Newbies on: September 05, 2017, 02:45:45 AM
Do yourself a favor and get educated on this before you are going to delve into this arena. Maybe you want to know how the blockchain works, or how Bitcoin is mined or maybe you want to learn what the trading signal are. Those are the things that can help us appreciate Bitcoin more.

I wish.  Roll Eyes  It's sort of pretty obvious why most people are here in our community, mainly for profit. You need to check out those crypto Facebook groups. 10% good and constructive posts and 90% shilling on some coins or ICOs like there's no tomorrow just to drive up the prices. You'd get to read posts like "to the moon!" and shit like readying their Lambos or something. Well guess what, now that we're in a sort of bear market trend right now, they're panicking hard. Saying that "is altcoin xyz dead already?" something like that just because prices dropped by double digits. It just shows how ignorant and greedy most people in the crypto community are.

Hello!

I am a bit of noob. And I just started early Tongue. I already made exchange account on Kraken, bought some small ammount of BTC coins and ETH coins. Now where to put them? My friend speaks of ICOs but there is just too much of them. So I thought I'd start on my own a bit. Which one is good ICO for beginner?

Thanks..!  Cheesy Grin

What do you mean "which one is good ICO for beginner"? What? ICOs have difficulties now?

Do your research. You can view new ICOs on the Alternate cryptocurrencies > Announcements (Altcoins) forum. Read through the projects' whitepaper and decide for yourself if you think that certain new cryptocurrency has the ability to innovate. Also take a good searches on the team, if they're actually real people and take a look also if the whitepaper is just copied or not.
16918  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: hashflare or genesis-mining ? on: September 04, 2017, 02:45:12 PM
Neither. If you wanted to profit from mining, better buy your own graphics cards or antminers instead.

Assuming I would do cloud mining though(which I never will), I would probably go with Genesis Mining since I kinda trust it a bit, as they legitimately have data centers and hardware. So I'm pretty sure it isn't a ponzi scheme. A crypto YouTuber named Michael a.k.a. "Boxmining" did a visit to their data center a week ago. video url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Jqf_wZKFCc   It's only very debatable whether or not cloud mining is profitable or not.
16919  Economy / Exchanges / Re: If you are trader on: September 04, 2017, 11:32:16 AM
This is interesting. Do you have a website up and ready?

I suggest having support for Bitfinex and Bittrex too. As I think more and more people are moving away from Poloniex, due to their funds being locked up and their customer support not replying for months. So you probably wont have enough users using your site.

+1. You definitely need to add other exchanges. Developments at Poloniex do not look good. It's a red flag when withdrawals are held pending indefinitely and you can't get any response from customer support. I certainly won't risk my coin there.


are these poloniex signs going to crumble? I see some people online in poloniex only 2k people, whereas before 400k people can get online there, and now troll box also been deleted, I am very afraid if poloniex indeed colaps, because my assets are many there.

I'm not sure mate, but if I were you I would try to get my funds out of Poloniex ASAP as they indeed might and will most likely collapse in the future in my opinion. What I think is they currently have a problem that they couldn't fix/fund. Move them ASAP to better exchanges like Bittrex.

Here are some complaints:
