181  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WHY bcc cannot worth more than 0.5% of bitcoin price, here is the proof on: July 25, 2017, 12:37:21 AM
I don't know what we're missing here but there shouldn't be such way to get bcc for almost zero cost. Then bcc wouldn't be valuable. Maybe you don't take sell-short position's cost into account.

This time I will write for ether trade. Ether prices are pressed between 0.11 and 0.08 zone. I'm currently doing arbitrage to make profit and it works. Buying from 0.08 zone and selling it between 0.10 and 0.11 zone. This pattern keep going now for ether trades.
183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do I make sure to not lose $ value in BTC? on: July 25, 2017, 12:01:30 AM
I don't really understand you. You don't want to cash it out and you want to keep it in your wallet with fixed value. Then what do you plan? This is not possible. You have to either get USDT or cash it out for this. Otherwise its value will fluctuate much.

Does anyone know how many are signed up to the alpha?

I was also trying to find the number of alpha platform users coz this will be a good sign to see whether lunyr is getting attention from the blockchain community.

If you know the exact numbers, please post it here.
186  Economy / Economics / Re: How long could bitcoin last? on: July 24, 2017, 11:43:36 PM
As of right now, the bitcoin price is expected to keep going up in the next 20 years. But can it last that long? I believe it's possible. But can't it crash at a random time? Like the price going down hard.

I think it will grow in the future. It can not disappear easily because they have made it difficult. So, invest in Bitcoin and trust it. It will help you get rich if you have the courage

Imagining and remembering the huge money that is backing bitcoin is enought to see that bitcoin will never last and disappear. It became the strongest digital asset and will maintain this forever.
187  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can i transfer Bitcoin and Litecoins from Old Wallets PC 2013 to new one on MAC on: July 24, 2017, 11:33:18 PM
You can export your Private key of BTC and import to Blockchain.info or sync wallet core!
I think you must sent with hight fee at the moment for BTC

He can do this easily if holding the private key, yet this is absolutely the wrong time for doing such transactions. They tell to wait for 30 confirmations at least and all transactions are problematic now. It's better to wait 2 more weeks to this tension calm down.
188  Economy / Economics / Re: If USD falls on: July 22, 2017, 11:19:46 PM
Like many powerful currencies in the past, USD may fall to ground too, my question is will that effect BTC value? Or is it independent of all other real world or non digital currencies of the world?
We could see that many USD holders have sold it and have bought bitcoins as its price is steadily increasing.In such a scenario,if USD falls,then definitely more people would start buying bitcoins which would create an increase in demand resulting in increase in bitcoin price.
The price fall of the USD will not have any negative impact on the bitcoin and no doubt the USD holders will divert their funds to bitcoin instead of USD or maybe to any other tangible currency which will take place of the USD. The USD fall could be a reason for the increased demand of bitcoin but can’t have any sort of negative effect on the bitcoin.

No. You are mistaken. The Bitcoin exchange rates have some connection with the USD value. If the value of the USD goes down versus EUR or JPY, the momentum will cause a decline in the exchange rates of BTC against these currencies. This may be due to the fact that most of the BTC trade volumes come from BTC vs USD trade.

Yup, the majority of the btc trading volüme directly linked to BTC/USD transactions and that's why. It's actually more complicated but to be simple, we can know that, as you addressed correctly, usd's position against other currencies like eur or jpy has an effect on btc too.
189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 13 Japanese exchanges agree to suspend bitcoin service on Aug. 1 on: July 22, 2017, 10:52:20 PM
The Japan Cryptocurrency Business Association has officially announced its plan on how to deal with the possibility of a Bitcoin protocol split on August 1. Thirteen of the group’s bitcoin exchange members, including Coincheck, Gmo-Z, Bitbank, and Bitpoint, will suspend bitcoin deposits and withdrawals on August 1 at 00:00 Japan time.

https://news.bitcoin.com/13-japanese-exchanges-suspend-bitcoin-service-august-1


If it really happened, what's the worst consequence that japan will face? Whether to damage the Japanese economy ??
Is not this japan now accept bitcoin as legal currency?

I really don't know why you consider this news as weird for Japan. They're not halting bitcoin operations permantently. They just take precaution which is needed to avoid undesired situations. That's all.
190  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you guys use for trading cryptos? Exchanges vs Shape-shifting wallets? on: July 22, 2017, 10:31:18 PM
Then on the other side you have shape shifting wallets, Exodus, Jaxx, keep key, and shapeshift.io   
These wallets are just integrated with shapeshift.io.  When you're exchanging between coins in your Exodus or Jaxx wallet, you're using shapeshift.io.

Shapeshift are not very transparent with their fees - .  I just they claim to have none, but the exchange rate varies.  I just compared the Ether-Bitcoin exchange rate from Shapeshift (on quick setting) and Coinmarketcap, and I found that the Shapeshift rate was about 0.4% higher.  By comparison, Bittrex rates are 0.2%.

Personally, I'm happy using Shapeshift for small amounts, but I would prefer to use an exchange for larger amounts because of the liquidity and, arguably, lower fees when doing it in bulk.

I would also like to add that ShapeShift fees are very high and so I will recommend you to use small amounts with ShapeShift whereas big amounts should be dealt by the exchanges.

I never use shape shifts due to their high fees. There are good exchanges available and bittrex is my best place to trade crypto coins. Its very user friendly with good support team.

On the HitBTC Exchange is more reliable and the price will be lower in October

I don't trust hitbtc Exchange, it's not even exchange and I heard that there are fake coins sold to the buyers. I don't know how that platform works, but simply stay away from it. Wait around 3 more months for the project start.
192  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO] KICKICO |preICO 28 July| PLATFROM FOR CROWDFUNDING ON CRYPTOCURRENCY on: July 22, 2017, 10:12:31 PM
So your "forecast" shows a 30x profit for preICO participants.

In most cases, such claims point to a scam ico...


Thank you for your remark.

This "forecast" is an approximation based on a 3-year period according to the crowdfunding market growth

Where can we see the details of this forecast? Depending on what effects do you expect this much growth? Here, 30 times profit doesn't sound realistci to me. Please explain more if you claim so.
193  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons to buy IOTA on: July 22, 2017, 09:51:39 PM
I think this is a very interesting project and I heard about 0 fees. Can you believe it? Zero Fees. Damn baby. Honestly I was on the brink of clicking the buy button when I changed my mind. Yes. Cause I was browsing Bitcointalk at the same time and I had been doing this for some time. Posts by "iotatoken" - who {and this is what I learned a couple days later} is a CEO of this project - made comments that seemed so sociopathic and distasteful that my stomach told me to stay away from this. Seems weird. Will it be forked?
Thanks for all of your answers in advance!

I missed the train when IOTA was cheap. Then I investigated a lot and saw it has a serious potential to grow more and more.

It can be tradeable on Bitfinex which is my favourite Exchange. And they have IOTA Exchange as well for trade.

8th placed was filled by IOTA in coinmarketcap web site with $751,876,839 total cap. These are all reasons.

194  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I'm panicking, tell me it will be OK... on: July 21, 2017, 10:20:02 PM
I'm sure there are a bunch of posts like this today and I'm sure you all are getting sick of hearing it. I am TRULY sorry. I'm usually VERY self sufficient, but I NEED reassurance today. I tried not to post this, but I couldn't help myself.

Been trading for around a year (crypto anyway, some pennies/forex for a few years back in college), wasn't until past few months that I started seeing REAL profit (like most I imagine...). I lost lots by panicking on those red days back in June. It turns out I don't handle this sort of pressure well. Not well at all...

Knowing this, I was going to move into fiat a few weeks back in preparation for the scaling issue FUD and corresponding dump, but I decided that I had the intestinal fortitude to keep a portion of my portfolio in small cap coins, dumps be damned. At first it was 1/10th, then 1/4, and by the end of June I was gobbling up shitcoins like hungry hippos eat white marbles, constantly telling myself "bah, I can handle any losses knowing that they are only temporary". I have about 1/2 my portfolio in low cap alts.

I was WAITING for today, for something FAR worse than today, for the mythical 1500-1800 everyone keeps talking about, the pools and pools of blood flowing like a river through the streets, yet I'm already freaking the f*ck out. It turns out my hands are not strong. Not even a little. They're like little baby hands that shake like leaves at the first sight of a daily close below 2200.

 BUT, I should continue to hodl at this point right?

 I have patience, I'll hold for years, that's not a problem, but my imagination has me thinking that the cryptobubble just burst and we'll never see prices like the past few months again. Just somebody PLEASE tell me this thought is stupid and completely without merit. That I'm not the only one hodling. To uninstall Blockfolio so that I'm not constantly grabbing my phone. That we will see 3k again by the end of the year. That it will all be OK in the end...

I'm also open to any suggestions you vets have on how you get through these times. Experience?


T.
All traders i think feel that too they panicking if they saw their holding coins drop.  But very important things to avoid that i think you can hold your coins and set it to your like price then wait until that price reach.
After you set it up don't log in to your account so that you didn't see your coins are dropping.
Very important are, you have positive thoughts and patient to wait that your coins goes up again.

When we get into loss, it's really hard to forget about our open trades and not sign into the Exchange account. We're not that patient. And that's the main problem why we always panic.

We alyways need somebody to calm us down.
195  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to start investing in cryptocurrencies with 500$ ? on: July 21, 2017, 10:10:27 PM
Hi guys,

Everything is in the title. I have 500$ I want to invest in cryptocurrencies. How should I diversify my portfolio an WHY ?

I don't want too risky investments. I'm looking for stable coins with good returns. Real projects with cutting-edge technology. No scam.

Thank you in advance

If I were you, I would sit on my couch and watch the real-time charts. The market is moving up and down so fast nowadays. Please wait a bit if you want to start with bitcoin.
196  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: July 21, 2017, 09:56:28 PM
Of course they have the right to express their own opinions but there are people who are talking below the belt and sometimes you just have to bear the pain because sometimes they're just laughing at you and sometimes they are doing sarcastic talks and that's why I'm being silent these days because someday these are gonna be worth it or " hardworking in silence" so they say.

There are times when I'm really irritated that I want to cash out all my btc and slap them a pile of fiat in the face. It's okie to have their opinion but talking behind your back and below the belt is really getting into my nerves. I need to learn how to control my emotion now because that would be bad when you are easily irritated and you have a lot of cash. Balance emotion cash and social relationships.

I would say that one of the "flaws" of a regular guy is that we always feel that we have to always deal with negativity. They talk behind your back, there's a reason why they are behind you. Remember that. They are behind you not only physically or figuratively but they are behind you in life. You have bitcoins, that's all that matters. Their opinions and how you fight your battle against them isn't relevant. I think that you're just going to stress yourself if you start facing these people. Just continue being low-key about the things that you do (that's how it should be anyways) and let the bitcoin haters hate.

It's possible that they are actually jealous of you for living ahead of them and having an advanced way of earning money. People hate themselves so they cope with it by throwing hate to other people too. Nonetheless, it shouldn't matter.

When I talk to those type of guys, I just neglect them. Because after they start to express their stupid ideas, it's really hard to accept their thoughts. And there is really no need to debate with them which won't result anything.
197  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 1 Million satoshis per day on: July 21, 2017, 09:32:29 PM
Is it possible to make 1 million satoshis per day with 1 bitcoin?

This is easy peasy but you can lose more than one million satoshi while you're trying to earn 1 million satoshi with bitcoin. Instead you can forget about certain numbers and trade regularly.
198  Economy / Economics / Re: How long could bitcoin last? on: July 21, 2017, 09:24:51 PM
With the current event in bitcoin I think Bitcoin is read to last for a very long time.  They have a great support because of the reason such as being the first mover to decentralized blockchain and being the most popular cryptocurrency.  It will take a lot of time for other cryptocurrency to overtake Bitcoin and with that, Bitcoin will continue to be the leading cryptocurrency.

It will be like this. Bitcoin made revolution and like in every aspect of life revolution will last. He will be here for very long time, even after our lifetime. Bitcoin is ment to replace someday fiat and if techno revolution continues as we progress bitcoin will replace fiat, or it will be some other crypto developed by "government".


I don't agree with revolution fact for bitcoin. Revolutions end somewhere but bitcoin will last forever which means it's not a temporary innovation. It's permanent.
199  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late to buy bitcoin? on: July 21, 2017, 09:12:34 PM
For short term, the best time to buy was several days ago when the price went just below $2000. It was only a matter of days for bitcoin to gain back the lost price. Today it is already on the $2800 figure and still rising for sure. So it is not yet too late after all. Your target should be long term. Hold your newly acquired bitcoins for several months and wait for the gain.
to me i will always refer to long term investment. because in short term investment there are more chances to lose money while in long term investment if you even d not have good experience still your investment will be safe. but for short term investment you need to invest a good amount of bitcoin because waiting for a long time you should get a good profit and that can only be possible through good investment.

In long term, investment is hard due to several negative effects like fluctuations and technical things. In short term, it's more under your control. So it's not late but I'm not sure if it's the right time to buy btc.
200  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we push the actual use of Bitcoin ? on: July 21, 2017, 08:39:22 PM
For bitcoin to be used as currency in day to day life,we have to take the initiative steps.We should approach retailers individually and explain them the revolution created by bitcoin and its benefits.We must add that payment once made in bitcoin cannot be reversed and so they would show interest in accepting bitcoin as payment.

Well we could try this and see if its works. But the problem is some merchants or retailers will just shrug off this shoulders once they hear "bitcoin". They either don't have an idea of what it is or just simply don't want to implement for reasons only they knew. I think we should let them know that Japan, one of the global superpower right now is accepting bitcoin as payment. And if Japan can do it, maybe them as merchants or retailers can follow what Japan has set. Its a long shot approach but who knows, maybe a couple will check if is really true and may have to re-think about accepting bitcoin as payment.

The push which will come from the adopters and community simply will not work for its wider usage in the world. Big players like governments, banks and other businessman should let bitcoin first. We can't do anything.
