201  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Safe Bounty hunters on: May 01, 2019, 01:14:16 AM
The forum is already doing that task of checking all scam projects at the scam accusation section.

its not the forum's job to check all the the scam projects . some users are only concern in which they are the one's that check the project and will be the one that give's feedback . if they the found out that the project was a scam , they will imediately create a scam accuse thread on the scam accuse section of this forum  .

One of the goals of Satoshi is anonymity and you're thinking of asking a KYC... right here? in his own community? I think it's not gonna work.

kyc is now possible and its mainly required on online exchanges to be able to lift your limits when you are withdrawing large amounts of cryptos/cash  . kyc is also present on an ico for investors  . there now also kyc's on airdrops and bounties even on this forum  .
202  Economy / Speculation / Re: What can people expect from BTC in 2019? What influences prices? on: May 01, 2019, 12:42:15 AM
What can people expect from BTC in 2019? :

all of us are expecting the unexpected because there is no possible way to predict on what will happen next on bitcoin  . though i believe that there are people who expect that the price of bitcoin will increase because they are only basing on the price charts but they didnt consider the fact that bitcoin can still fluctuate anytime of the day .

What influences prices?

there are many factors that influences the price  . one is manipulation  , manipulation can came from large institutions or from whales   . second is the news  , positive or negative both can inflict the price of btc  . third would be specultations or predictions  , these things do also contribute a little for the price  . and many more  ....
203  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has no practical use and could be damaging to the economy! on: April 30, 2019, 10:27:06 AM

i dont agree on the part that bitcoin has no practical use but i somehow agree on the part that bitcoin could be damaging to the economy

bitcoin do have practical use and that is for paying , buying , for investing , trading , etc... 

bitcoin could be damaging to the economy in the form of bitcoin mining where too much heat is released from mining hardware  . bitcoin can also damage the economy if bitcoin is used in a wrong way due to its anonimity feature  where you cant be easily traced if you'v done something wrong  .
204  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DO WE REALLY NEED MORE STABLE COINS? on: April 29, 2019, 09:30:02 PM
I don't think we need more stable coin, what we should be look at should fighting for how cryptocurreny can be fully accepted by all the government of the earth.

Agree  . crypto acceptance is more of a problem than creating more stable coins  although i know and we all know that stable coins is also important because it protects our money from going down due to the unstableness of cryptos .

Why do we need more stable coins, I do not understand. If two or three coins and that's enough. Still, people will not invest in stable coins because they have no development. Stable coins come from crypto when the market is in a fever.

We need more stable coins because there is only a small number of stable coins on the market and thier supply is also limited  . its better if people have a different varieties to choose from  . stable coins do also have a development , there are several news about stable coins lately  . arent you aware with that ?
205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto is so great on: April 29, 2019, 08:54:17 PM
The fact that Satoshi Nakatomo remain anonymous is so great for bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general, 

Whats great for being anonymous ?  Isnt it much greater if he could reveal himself on the public and claim his invention ? In that way , people can easily believe more that bitcoin is really a legit kind of  currency   .


it has really helped so many people,  making lots of people quit their job and being self made

Bitcoin helps people to earn and to make thier lives more easier but its not a good influence if people would quit thier existing jobs just to join here on bitcoin  .  self made or beig independent is good because you dont have a boss that dictates you but it should also be done in a less riskier way away from the volatile nature of bitcoin .
206  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Indian Govt thinks Bitcoin is a ponzi scheme on: April 29, 2019, 08:03:10 PM
Maybe they judge bitcoin ponzi scam because they have a bad experience in making transactions, for example they make mistakes when making large amounts of transactions so that the funds they have are lost and not returned

All of us do mistakes when we were new on using bitcoins but that is only a human error . if we are careful on what we do we cannot make the same mistakes again . its enough reason to ban cryptos .

or they see only from the negative side used by fraudsters to get money in the form of bitcoin.

You mean criminals used bitcoins ?  but what about fiats ?  All cryptos are also being used by criminals  . i dont think that criminals will used bitcoins at all times because its not easy to use bitcoin and bitcoin is still new  .

So they judge only from the mistakes they made themselves and the criminal actions of others without wanting to see many positive sides.

Yes  . they only see the negative side of bitcoin but they dont consider the advantages or the benefits that bitcoin could possibly bring to their people .
207  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trader for Hire on: April 29, 2019, 12:52:39 PM
This is the first time I saw someone in this forum offering his service.
My honest opinion if I have to decide, I would not use this service because I want to improve my trading skills and maximize my income.

And I cannot prove you are as accurate as you mentioned.
But what is the point of hiring the trader who is making few trades per month and if his accuracy is real why he want to manage some people's funds?

Because he wanted to earn more income  but lets be careful to not easily trust somebody  because our money is at stake here  . the point of hiring a trader is simply for a busy person or if a person wants to trade but he is scared because  he lacks knowledge  .

 though its still better to take the risk yourself and if you loose dont be discourage because that is a lesson that will improve you to become a better trader  .  trading bots on the other hand are more trusted if you already have some knowledge on trading .
208  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Too many exchanges? on: April 29, 2019, 11:21:32 AM
many exchanges are a good thing when it shows that the crypto field is growing,

Number of online Exchanges are not the basis to know if the crypto field is growing or not  but the price are  or the market cap . if these are growing , that is a sign that the adoption is also growing or improving  .

in addition, the emergence of these new exchanges will become a source of motivation for the old exchanges to grow,

I think its the opposite  . old exchanges dont need motivation anymore because old exchanges are already succesful while new exchanges are the ones that need motivation from older exchanges because new exchange dont have an experience yet .
209  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Effects of BCSV, good or bad ? on: April 29, 2019, 10:43:45 AM
IMHO they both must be delisted from all top exchanges like all other aggressive forks  that saying that they are true chains)

That is happening . i saw lots of news that says that exchanges are now de listing bcsv  .l dont know why this coin is so controversial ?  Is this s fork ? If it is then there are many fork coins out there including bitcoincash but why they dont de list bch ? Bch is also controversial before but until now bch is still alive and going stronger  .

I dont think that this coin bcsv can have a bad effects from the market . people think that itl cause bad effect because they think that it can be a rival of bitcoin but that was normal . every single day there are new coins that are being created but people dont even care on them .
210  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't Fomo , 3800$ incoming ? on: April 29, 2019, 10:09:39 AM
i agree the market is still in bearish, but for daily trader like me this is the best opportunities to do some pimpong trade. crypto still legit even if the price bellow 1000$.
Market is on a bullish trend and we have seen how it has rose form lows of 3500$ to 5400$ and is getting a bit stable in this price zone. So bearish trend does not seems to come in this spot at present and also we can see we have many buyers entering at this zone as well.

Every person has a different definition of bear and bull because there is no official price point for the bear and bulls  . for you maybe the current price of bitcoin is already a bull but for me no i wouldnt agree that it was a bull   .

 for me i think the increase that we saw is only a small recovery   .

 for me the real bull is when bitcoin touches to 10k and above    but bears arent also over  .  we can still experience a bear after a price recovery and we can also experience a recovery or a bull after the bear   .
211  Economy / Economics / Re: HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE NEXT BULL RUN 2019 on: April 29, 2019, 09:30:59 AM
Hope for the best but expect the worse.


I hope for the best but not expecting the worst because we've seen the worst already, it will not happen again I guess we are on the road
to recovery and as we see the price is more dominant uptrend again.

There was a huge dump today which suddenly happened, but the price react and also recover.
If you already know that the worst already ended, then you must be prepared for the good things that will come, take advantage of the current market conditions, prices are still low and bullish has not happened. buy as much as you can, collect it in a safe place, that's my preparation before ATH happens
The worst is over because bitcoin has already bottomed out.
Bitcoin is the indicator in this market since it's holding a high dominant rate of over 50% and it has increase lately, now at 55%.
Buying opportunity shows once we believe that price has dip, it will bring project in short and long term trade.

You sure about that ? Worst might be over for now not because of bitcoin bottomed out at 3k usd but because bitcoin has now recovered and being stabled at 5+k usd but then again the party does not end there  . maybe you already forgot that bitcoin itself is still volatile and prone to manipulations  ?  The worst that you guys talking about above wont just be over because its already been there in the life of the cryptos  .
212  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 3 arrested in Bangladesh for merely trading Bitcoin on: April 29, 2019, 08:58:27 AM
I think these people are bad guys from the start, I mean why they are being arrested for merely trading bitcoins, when bitcoins are not even banned from their own country. obviously these guys have made something unlawful to get them arrested they are robbers anyway. the title is misleading it should be updated to avoid confusions.


As pursuer said . bangladesh is one of the countries that ban bitcoin  .  now if you will still continue using bitcoin on your country even if its banned then you know what will happen to you  . can either go to the jail or you will be asked to pay the amount that you stole ( times 10 )  . however , idk the exact situation on how these guys have caught when trading bitcoin offline is still anonymous  . they can use fake details and a vpn connection to mask their true connection  . or maybe they are trading offline from person to person .
213  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - the Chain of Knowledge on: April 29, 2019, 08:26:05 AM
Yes, I agree with you on that point Bitcoin is the chain of knowledge.

I also agree with you when you say that bitcoin is the chain of knowledge because with bitcoin we knew different things such as the blockchain and other coins  . we then dig dipper than this because we hear several terms that relates to crypto  . we are curios and we research these terms  .

Bitcoin is the main source of income for many.

Yes thats true but bitcoin being the main income is not suggested because its risky  due to its unstable nature  . you depend on your income with it but what if thr price sudenly fails to increase ?  This why its better if we have other source of income aside from doing bitcoin  .

Bitcoin has created employment for many. So I will say Bitcoin is the real hero
Thank you

Its not bitcoin that create jobs or employment but its the company , the project  .  they are only using bitcoin as a form of payment method  .
214  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I will never sell my Alts for loss: Prefer to take them to the cemetery! on: April 28, 2019, 11:28:30 PM
yes thats a good decision to make . you buy your coins at a higher price and why would you sell them at a lower price ? You will only look like a fool if you do that  because your investments will be useless  .  like you im not also selling my alts and tokens at a lower price even if i say that i dont buy them because i only get them on some airdrops on the past  but the problem is that their price isnt worth the effort and not worth the capital for the etherium to be able to send and trade them on a dex exchange .
215  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin and online transctions on: April 28, 2019, 08:54:43 PM
despite over 2 decades of growth of internet, statistics show that only 10% of retail transactions were conducted online. payment channels such as lightning are a massive opportunity for online payments
That's because online payment that provided by banks and other company are charges too high fee. If we compare it with cash then cash is better because there is no fee on it except taxation. And other bad things is there are many germs on cash money so it's not really good for our health. But if we use bitcoin then we only need to pay small fee and we can send the money anywhere in this world. So bitcoin is very appropriate for this century.

Cash dont have fees i agree with that but what about tax ? When we buy stuffs offline all of those things have a tax included , the bigger item you buy thr bigger tax youl incur  and i think that tax is more costy than fees if we all sum it up  .  other one is the germs and other bacteria's that we can get on using physical currency . this is bad and this is the start of causing health problems  .  cryptocurrency is a kind of virtual/digital money that can overall solve this issues  that we are facing right now  .
216  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The ugly side of Bitcoin on: April 28, 2019, 08:06:53 PM
The most ugly side of Bitcoin to me is the volatility nature its possess.

You arent alone with that  . many users also think that being volatile is the most ugliest side of bitcoin because the price can go down no matter how high the price goes  but volatility is also beneficial for investors and for us sellers because people can buy more coins when the price drops and we can sell it again when the price recovers or pumps  .

Many atimes some individuals do asked me of how secure will their investment be if they choose to invest in Bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general. And my replies will be, although is good to invest in it, but remember that, the market is not stable the price can fluctuate at any given time.

Securing your cryptos is easy  . all you gotta do is choose a good wallet that is safe or have a solid security  . also , checking your assets more oftenly is a good idea because you can monitor the price and then you can cash out them when you already hit your targeted price to secure their value .
217  Economy / Economics / Re: How adoption will happen on: April 28, 2019, 07:28:28 AM
It will adopted by the people from anywhere,

not anywhere because not all countries accept cryptos but there is still no assurance that a country that accepts cryptos will be adopted by the people living on it because not all have the guts and the knowledge to buy and embrace cryptos   .

well developed countries may have better educational system so people will understand about blockchain technology lot easier and faster so they will come to invest on it sooner.

not really  . no matter how the country is developed or no matter how thier knowledgeable thier people are but if the people dont have interest on cryptos  . they still wont take the time to learn cryptos
218  Economy / Economics / Re: Barclays: ‘Facebook Coin’ to bring in $19 billion by 2021 on: April 28, 2019, 06:06:56 AM
I don't think about what Facebook will do if they really create their own cryptocurrency.

i think they will create thier own crypto because they want to earn more profit . they think that their coin can easily gain attraction or investors because their platform is big and verry popular  .

some time ago Facebook has banned advertising related to cryptocurrencies on their platforms. but now they will create a cryptocurrency and join in it, what more drama will this big company do?

the reason why they ban crypto is because they are jelous with other cryptos  . they dont want these cryptos to become popular becuase they are already planning thier own coin . i cannot think of other possible scenarios that may happen after this  .  maybe this is the last drama that facebook will do  .
219  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: There's Still Too Many Scams Within The ICO Community... on: April 28, 2019, 05:34:14 AM
To get rid of the scam, we need to choose only serious projects.

but the problem is that its hard to differentiate scams from the legit one's as all of them are seem to be closely simillar to each other   . i think the best and last resort to do is to go and check the scam accuse section of this forum  . there are lots of good users here and most of them are also reputable . they can check the site and they are giving thier own feedbacks  , we can base on those so that we can be aware if what ico is legit and what is not  .

220  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gab wants to make a browser rewarding you in BTC on: April 28, 2019, 04:33:08 AM
Why don't they just request brave browser to do so, there is no point of making another whole Browser for Bitcoin rewards.

Its because brave browser has its own coin which was bat coin  . they only see bitcoin and other cryptos as a rival but i dont like the idea of stealing someones code and then use it for their own good  . your right , why they dont confront bat/brave about their idea making such browser with a reward feature ?  

As we know brave browser is already a custom version of Chrome and now cab is making a custom version of brave Browser that makes no sense.

I didnt know that things but if that was true then thanks for that info   . i think its legal to create or develop your own browser but as long as it isnt copyrighted to other existing browsers
