Hi, have a small bet on cardano, so far the only get hyped. we will see

Cheers

That's the spirit. You should only bet what you can afford to lose; cryptocurrency 101. However, I can never emphasize enough how due diligence can save one from avoidable errors in judgement calls.

Developers at BTC are also the very best.

That's an obsolete legend. They are the most, but not the best. If i need to specify, where's the best developers, i pick the ethereum fundation.

I'll also pick Ethereum, but Cardano has  the advantage of peer-review mechanism & a vast network of academic researchers to uphold the system.

Just to be clear, what would be the critical bearish limit before one should really get worried? As indicated by the below stated new lows?

I think that this market is headed well above 20000$ in the upcoming weeks/months, for completeness a possible bearish scenario would imply first a drop down to 7500$, a subsequent reaction to 9500$-10000$ before resuming the fall to new lows...




That's ENKY's analysis , he hasn't mentioned anything since that. Seems he has stopped analyzing the market

Does anyone else have any further analysis from where ENKY's analysis stopped, that's if they agree with it. Or do they have a contrary one, because it would seem this bearish trend isn't going away anytime soon?

Cardano will be one of the biggest. There is already an ICO running named SP8DE  (https://sp8de.com/) based on the Cardano blockchain.
If you experienced the horrible Ethereum wallets (ao Mist, Metatask, MEW) which are the most user-unfriendly I ever encountered together with an incomprehensive gas system that makes every transfer a headache, it is not difficult to see the easy-to-use Cardano can become a major player.


So why do people keep saying Cardano has no product yet when clearly SP8DE is one of its product.
The product from what? Can you tell where can i use my cardano to get utility usage from my token? at least i can play the game with it. It's just another ico and it's not a product. Can you tell me about what was the definition of product
This thread obviously created by ethereum haters lol

Oh come on... am ethereum's and bitcoin's number 1 fan... well was for bitcoin before ethereum came up. And besides, we all are not just fanatics we are after solidity and proof of work and 'state'. Every ICO and future projects ought to know that blockchain isn't just about fundraising to produce shit coins but creative real-world solutions and to real-world problems.

This thread was created to critically analyze the potential of Cardano vs. bitcoin, find out if Ethereum will sit on the sidelines - as a lesson to future projects too.
27  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Cardano knocks off BTC's Crown on: February 05, 2018, 08:34:46 AM
Cardano doesn't even have product at all. It is too early to talk about. And I would prefer bitcoin or ethereum any day over cardano. I ve read many people saying cardano is somewhat shady when it was first talked on bct.

Everyone has their opinion about this coin or that coin. But the superior ideology comes from the one you obtain through due diligence. After going through their whitepaper and their roadmap, am somewhat convinced that they will provide solidity. Besides, except Bitcoin and Ethereum are ready to scale this very moment, each delay is crucial to further accessibility. Leaving more room for rookie blockchain products like NEO, NEM, or even Cardano think of replacing their legacy.

I’m biased on bitcoin as I’m a member of Bitcointalk and a holder.. So it won’t take the position as the number one and it’s crown as the top coin in cryptocurrency.. But I admit that with this kind of potential coin it deserve on the second spot and has the power to dethrone ethereum and replace it in due time.. But it won’t be happening this year or even a couple more year as eth is used in many projects as an investment coin..

I agree, I read an article about how ADA is a threat to ETH. We may well be seeing some scalable issues with Ethereum, although they have plans underway to fix that, but I think once Cardano touches down on its next milestone (Shelley -  Expected Q2 2018), it would be a game changer in crypto-world.

The advantage they have over Eth is their Peer-review system, and a vast resource of researchers; no wonder they have so much to accomplish in a short period of time.

Impressed by the CEDEX's package - tokenization of diamond market and linking crypto to another real-world asset is always a plus to blockchain enterprise. We could begin seeing another use for diamond, with regards to sustainable financial instrument. I have no doubt that this ICO will changed the financial market positively. Considering their step-wise approach to unlocking the financial prospects for diamond use, DEX will indeed become an asset to the industry.

Another thing is, they will create a liquidity function for Diamond.

31  Economy / Speculation / Re: DON'T PANIC. HOLD YOUR BITCOIN. on: February 01, 2018, 10:11:38 PM
The problem is if you have bought bitcoin at let's say 15k$ and it pummeled down towards 10k$ it will be really hard not to sell it off thinking it mioght go even lower and lower. This is how panic sells start and keep attracting more panic sellers. Then after a while it rises back again but now they have lost because they had sold it off. It's different if you had bought BTC at 5-8k$, as long as it doesn't drop below what you actually payed for it won't matter that much to you but when it does it gets hard to hold them. It's mostly psychological, it is best that when you go into crypto to only use money that you allready see as lost and go from there. Otherwise you risk way too much like life savings and such and can get a huge psychological hit.

Then I would say the investor isn't paying much attention to trends and factors. Investors in BTC as a store of value don't lose as long as they hodl for a long period of time. However, if they allow FUD dictate their investment style, then they are in for a sigh - and my friend it would lots and lots of sighing...

Bitcoin is showing good and favourable price index. we can expect good results from it in the nearest months coming up.

Why bitcoin over alt coins? Especially considering the transaction and scaling problems of bitcoin.

It's all down to the infrastructure and scaling it to the number of users

- ATMs
- Shops
- Trading
- ICOs
- Mining rigs
- Enhancements (Lightning network, etc.)
- etc. (loads of investors)

As for transactions the price of transactions is dropping rapidly.
As for scalability, Bitcoin is scalable, it only has problems with these stupid-money surges.

As for altcoins, they usually don't bring much to the table and act as an overflow for Bitcoin.
When a Bitcoin surge bogs down Bitcoin people jump onto altcoins....
Just think about Dogecoin in the last Bitcoin 'crash'. Dogecoin was going to be bigger than Bitcoin ... where is it ? nowhere!

Conclusion: Bitcoin will survive Smiley


I don't think BTC is scalable especially because of the limited size in the block. This has always been one outstanding challenge for this particular cryptocurrency. However, it's infrastructure and usage as a store of value will continue to provide insight into how other cryptocurrencies emerging as alternate stores of value will operate.
33  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Cardano knocks off BTC's Crown on: February 01, 2018, 09:46:43 PM
I think as people continue to understand the divide between protocol and currency layouts, the finer they appreciate blockchain. Now that one thing common to both ETH and ADA, however, IMO i think what Cardana proposes is several steps ahead of what ethereum currently is.

In this light we should begin to see soon what Cardano Tech is really all about, as soon as the next milestone on the roadmap is achieved.
34  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Cardano knocks off BTC's Crown on: February 01, 2018, 09:29:57 PM
January 2017 price of Ethereum = $7.98 USD, am just saying, if and when a crypto becomes usable and adopted by the masses all depends on the opportunity that avails itself. Am pretty sure apart for token contribution, people didn't think Ethereum could also be used as a store of value. most people preferred Bitcoin. But as at the time when the bitcoin had high transaction fees, people turned to the likes of LTC, ETH and even NEO... - opportunity.


So if Ethereum doesn't step up, Cardano does possesses the ability to scale, YOU JUST WAIT and see. Crypto has a funny way of surprising us.

Here's a reddit comment from one of the fans of the project when he heard that Genesis Vision will be using Cardano as payment:

"That's great news for both projects. ADA adoption in the GVT platform will open up ADA users to the perks of passive income from fund management tokens within the platform, and GVT will benefit from the additional traffic. It's great to watch the Space grow organically as projects build with one another."

And this is just the beginning.

NB: When comparing cryptos, its important to note that the timeline for each development cannot be the same as so much can differ especially when they are done at intervals.
35  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Cardano knocks off BTC's Crown on: January 31, 2018, 05:59:01 PM
Hi everyone, just a curious question. Can Cardano surpass BTC & ETH?
I know that it is currently undervalued - or so I think; But with ADA's solidity and scalability prospect is it ever going to happen?

Your thoughts please... Need to make a long term investment decision on this.

This makes me laugh Smiley

ADA is 15x smaller than BTC and doesn't have 1% of Bitcoin adoption.
Also, Cardano is just a token without real product, yet.
Exactly. Way too many shitcoins with no product and promise. Now my investments have been going to Ardor. It actually has a real working product and new blockchain. It will rival Ethereum in a few years and solves all the issues Ethereum has. Most dont hear about it because it is not just another pump and dump shilled coin. It is the real deal and not this Cardano poser.

Well first you got me there when you mention Ador. I mean, anything blockchain with a side chain is my investment 'cryptonice'. but NXT was also once an undervalued coin when it finished it's ICO even with the label of blockchain 2.0. So am thinking, if Cardano pulls a stunt like that, won't it be great to have a few 'shit coin' stashed away just in case.

But another token offering am also not too sure about is Arcblock... I mean, who builds a new blockchain and sells its token for $0.5 USD; really suspicious was expecting it to be around $1 USD or least $0.8 USD. Any thought guys?

It won't surpass btc because ADA doesn't have a real product yet. It also does not got what it takes to put up a fight with btc and ethereum, it is only in it's early phases after all. Even if that is the case, ADA is profitable as is and it still got a lot of potential to grow. If you are in for a long term hodl why not invest now without thinking of it surpasing btc or not?

Ok a little confused here, everyone's saying that they don't have a real product yet and that its currently just a token or a currency, but I thought the prospect is in what they plan to do and not just what they already have in place. I think if they hit their next milestone it should count for something - i think... wouldn't know though.

What are the prospective exchanges where LATX will be listed on? I can really see this token has some swags already.
38  Economy / Speculation / Re: DON'T PANIC. HOLD YOUR BITCOIN. on: January 30, 2018, 08:45:28 AM
Bitcoin is showing good and favourable price index. we can expect good results from it in the nearest months coming up.
Panic selling will only regret in the future, so it's better to stay hodl when dumping happens. No one advises to sell when dump, because if you keep selling when dump happens you will lose valuable profits on the investment you have done. So keep hodl until the price back increases then sell to get a good profit.

Am quite optimistic about Bitcoin above other coins, and am confident the price will still go up i envision at least 3x before the year runs out.

It may not stay that way, but it will graze that mark.

Hard to estimate. Nobody expected such a rise in 2017 and crypto market did it.

I think that 2018 will not be as big as 2017 - but x10 is possible. Around 5.000.000.000 at end 2018.

But maybe the bubble is already close to burst. However - chances for me a bigger than the risk. My money goes into crypto - but only the part which I can lose without serious effects to life and family.



If I get you correctly, you must mean x10 for a particular cryptocurrency, and the market cap for 2018 to be speculated at 5 billion USD, seem to be so much of a shortfall. Seeing that currently, the market cap is ranging between 400-600 billion USD.
