Much has been said about litecoin and it's future in the pass but what about the present?
It appears to me that this coin is kinda of forgotten of, almost no mentions here whatsoever of the "bitcoin silver", must be all these forks and stuff

I'm still using ltc as a temporary bagholder due to it's historical stability compared to other coins, but i would like to know what people think about it, is a pump coming? Price's been really stagnant past few days and what advantages does it have against future alts technologies?

Dear Friends, I want to invest 500 usd in altcoins, any body give me a list of 4/5 good coins from the prospective of 6/7 months holding

Thanks in adavance

Opinion : I think BitcoinCash (BCH)  Will reach $500 as an average across all major Exchanges.

Discuss.

I understand you can buy coins using fiat. What is your other means to generate coins?

Hey fellows!

Let's collectively predict the ETH price for the 1st of December (2017).

What are your thoughts on this? 🔮

See a vote on this one 

I am newbie on bitcoin, recently introduced with the community. I have seen a lot of positive feedback about bitcoin investment. I am not interested do business or trade on market. I want to used it for long term investment only. Some people suggested me anytime is good for invest on bitcoin but I want to do it wisely. If you have some idea of the market and analysis kindly do it for me.

I am asking this just to see the different opinions of Bitcoin community about its long term potential

I know Bitcoin is actually strong enough and stable as well

But what do you think about it after 100 years ?

Bitcoins has regained its strong value, As of this posting, the value per 1 bitcoin is exactly 4786.59 US Dollar.   Soon we will see more ways people can squeeze the most out of bitcoins.   Since the advent of the internet to be profit oriented in the 90's, no one would possibly have imagined that the Internet would breed Facebook, Google, Uber, online streaming, etc. This is where we are with the Blockchain now. There exists a whole world of opportunities out there.  

These opportunities have the unrighteous users of this cryptocurrencies to also used its advantage. We cannot deny for a fact that cyber crimes have been committed since the birth of the internet.  Once, stealing was done with having guns, now, robbers can easily hack bank accounts or counterfeit credit cards to their advantage.  Sooner, cryptocurrencies can be used to pay crimes such as services for creating counterfeit birth certificates and this is not far from happening.  Actually, the US has already cases on this matter.

Another is the crime of buying illegal-drug emporium that used Bitcoin as a medium of exchange, politicians and policymakers took notice. Criminals, it turns out, really like bitcoins, which can be exchanged for nefarious purposes on the "Dark Web," with complete anonymity and, it seems, impunity.

Although, there are some articles that i have read regarding criminals cannot hide behind bitcoins, still, there are difficulties tracing transactions using cryptocurrencies. That is why law enforcement agencies should have a to change their procedures to pursue criminals who make use of the latest technology to commit crimes. Let the law find a way to evolve to address new tech challenges. There is no reason to expect that law enforcement won’t be able to get a handle on this new cybercrime.

SO we all tried HODLing the BTC with the expectation of recieving BTG.  Now we see that the BTC price has gone a bit low in the last two days  (from the highest it had reached) ,however the price of BTG has made up for this loss.SO I wanna ask most of you, if you feel satisfied with what ever happened?

It seems confirmed! What do you young guys say in this case?

To the MOOOON!

Would have been much better off just leaving everything in bitcoin. Altcoins suck.

Hello everyone I did some analysis and research and I came up with investment ideas. However, I'm not a broker or a financial professional so this post is not an investment advice. I just wanna share my thoughts. Also my previous prediction about btc when price was around $3000 : https://www.cryptocompare.com/coins/btc/post/p_176871

1) DASH/BTC (Predicted Profit:40%): I think this may be a good time to get a long position on dash/btc pair my analysis shows 40% ROI can occur in a month. In other words, DASH can go up to 0.07 from 0.049 in a month.

2) BTC/USD: (Predicted Profit:15%): This one is I think very risky move beacuse btc could quickly return from bear market to bull market but same analyze technique shows that btc can drop to at least $5000.

3) XRP/USD: (Predicted Profit:25%): Ripple can increase to 0.25 point from 0.2 in a two to three week.

Notes: Time periods are wider than actual ones which analysis shows and of course you're responsible if you perform any investment based on these ideas again I'm not a broker or a financial professional and this post is not an investment advice.

Hi, many people are confused between 2 different forks happening in the following days. And I've seen all different questions about it, so I'll try to explain them with simple words without going into much detail. Feel free to expand (or correct) this explanation.

First, what is fork?
A fork is like a ramification of the original Bitcoin, basically copying BTC code and adding some more features.

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) (happening around 10/26) is aiming to have a coin that can be mined using GPU processing (AKA computer video cards usually for gaming) the intention is to make it easy for regular people to mine BTG and remove some power to mining companies in China using special and expensive equipment to mine (known as ASICs).

Segwit2x (in November) is about increasing the size of the block from 1MB to 2MB but it is more controversial as developers of Bitcoin Core are against it while other miners and very influential people backed by the New York agreement are the ones pushing for this change.

In my opinion this is the fork that we should worry about, due to the different opinions there could be a lot of volatility.
