201  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The best 4 months profit scenario? on: March 31, 2019, 11:44:43 AM
How can you say that the user can make huge amount of profits in very less time period? High profits always risky to invest and when the profit look unrealistic is more or less to be considered as scam.
It is just going to be another token that will be pumped and eventually dumped after they have successfully gathered whatever needs to be gathered.

Any project that will really give such profit usually takes time to do so, but if one is still smart enough since we are already aware it will be another project that will turn shitcoins, one can still invest in it and wait for it to be pumped and also join them in dumping the project since they themselves are not so serious with the project but whoever will practice this type of investment needs to be careful because they can be extremely smart too and you will find it difficult to catch the pump.
202  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: EUR market: why is it so unpopular among Europeans? on: March 31, 2019, 07:57:41 AM
I think it is about volume, I mean after something is so settled that its hard to break you just go with it and the first thing settled was dollar not EUR so we didn't really cared about it, after all we all have banks that can turn dollars into euro as well so there is no bothering for us, just withdraw it as dollar and change it to euro whenever you want.

Or even keep it at dollar if you want. So all in all if the volume was there for euro pairs and if there was a lot of pairs like maybe usdt but for eurot or whatever on binance with bunch of coins and high volume I would totally use it, would make things easier but without that its just something with low volume, kinda like a bad token or bad coin that you want to sell and get out of.

If one day CoinBase starts an office and a euro deal and do their famous fake volume thing maybe we will go take a look.
203  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: who are they behind ico? on: March 30, 2019, 07:39:22 PM
maybe this is not important, there is no benefit to this question. but I am very curious about who is the top person behind ico?
So like this, bounty hunters work in the field of project promotion, I assume we are at the root. while the team and developers manage the project to keep running, including finding funds from investors. the question is, who is the top in the ico project? say like bitcoin "he is the top of the other coins, even the creator of bitcoin doesn't receive the slightest profit from his own creations.
I think you are mixing things up here, we have three parties to ICO based on my understanding, and we have the project developer/Team, campaign managers and bounty hunters.

Among those developers and teams lies the person that came up with the idea but doesn’t necessarily mean he is the sole owner of the project, they are the ones to plan their strategy and work together as owner and that is why they are called team, while bounty managers and hunters are the ones working to solicit for these funds for them, so if I fully understand your point.

I think when you see the team, you have already see the person behind the ICO or could it be that you are talking about the inventor of ICO which I believe is still BITCOIN because they carried out the first Project.
204  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't fall for the pump, Bitcoin won't stay pass 4k nor does it deserve to. on: March 30, 2019, 06:04:50 PM
From all the major flaws presented in Bitcoin one could say PoW is the major flaw of them all making the coin more centralized than even most people can't afford to keep up with other miners, these are day traders doing there thing again making profits on your losses, beware most say it's like gold it doesn't need to be fast but in reality it just isn't so secure.
I think you are always concluding on Bitcoinprice based on what happened 2017, the pump that happened sudden there was too fast and that is why it crashed since it didn’t slowly get to the price.

Bitcoin  adoption is still at its early stage and still has a very long way to go, within the next 10 years, at least, over 500 million people are expected to have gotten a glimpse of the system and start making use of it for their financial operations, some will come to trade, some will use it to make payment and majority of people will keep it value like gold, and as these people come in to perform one or 2 transaction frequently, we will keep experiencing gradual growth in the price of BTC till it reaches ATH but for now, it’s stability is what we need to achieve this and if it will stay on $4000 for now to achieve that, it won’t be a bad idea.
205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you watch the matches you're gambling on on: March 30, 2019, 04:56:28 PM
My question is, do you watch the games your gambling on?
I think it is very important to watch matches before going on bets especially when it has to do with soccer.

You cannot be a successful bettor if you don’t follow up with matches. I will like to know how successful or how much wins you have made since the years you have been playing without watching any live games.

Whatever games I would gamble on, I watch them. How do you then make your decisions without watching, because you need to have different information at your disposal to be able to make a good decision and the best way to do this is by watching because this is how you have an in depth knowledge of the game, and how the game was played. For example, if you watch the live game, you can know the factors that are likely to affect the game either positively or negatively
206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you choose slots for gambling? on: March 30, 2019, 03:31:14 PM
I think I like the fact you are out for knowledge not just to jump into any slot because you want to play like some newbies do. But I don’t think there is any basic strategy to choosing slots but there can be factors to put into consideration and this is left with different players. What I consider before picking a slot might not be the same with another player.

First off, I check out for jackpots, I prefer those ones that offer progressive jackpots because there is tendency for me to increase my chances of winning by placing maximum stakes, so here I go with multiplier jackpot. It pays according to the amount wagered. Also, I consider slots that can easily be played using an android device because some slots select phones especially with portrait mode. And as a beginner I would recommend you try bet ways.
207  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin Too easy to manipulate? on: March 30, 2019, 02:48:20 PM
it`s not supported by FUD, this groups in BitcoinPanther coin the mment are creating FUD, they have soldiers who do that everyday. In theory you can manipulate with everything, in reality things are different. Like BitcoinPanther said for huge manipulation you need many people and groups involved. I don`t believe that someone, anyone can fully manipulate with bitcoin, actions from already mentioned groups affect price movement, but nobody can manipulate with bitcoin 24/7 on the global level.
The major thing that affects the price movement of Bitcoin is fund, it is either they move in fund or they move out fund, we have some super rich people who are playing smart and can move large amount of fund within bitcoin at once.

I mean one person and it will have serious effect over the global market, what do you think will happen if we have an investors called SHANTEL and MR shantel decides to move in 1 billion dollars into the cryptocurrency at once, do you think this act alone from 1 person is not enough to price increase on global level, and what if after a period of time, MR SHANTEL decides to MOVE out his fund after getting probably 30% increase on it overtime, we see big dump and panic sell going round.

But, reason why this can’t happen now is that major investors we have are matured investor that would hold their coin for a very long term and would not allow FUD control them.
208  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin in the Event of a Global Economic Crisis on: March 30, 2019, 01:51:25 PM
I think I have mentioned this before but I like talking about it, the money people have and they can use to buy bitcoins will not be available during a GFC and because they do not have that much money than they will not be able to buy bitcoin too much. However at the same time, since dollar will lose value and people will want more money for their bitcoin the price will go up as well. Which means we will see less volume on bitcoin during a GFC however we will see the price going up.

It will create a very volatile bitcoin but it will also have a high price bitcoin. To think that bitcoin will come out of a GFC unharmed at all and even stronger is naive, you need to react to whats happening around you and just be affected less than they were affected which would be more than enough to show bitcoin is truly a great investment option.
209  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto friendly Banks that wont still your money the complete list for 2019 on: March 30, 2019, 08:40:55 AM
This article, explore the crypto friendly banks options that are available in 2019.
It is a good way to go, those hardline banks will soon come running back to the ones accepting cryptocurrency for training on its operation once it done on them that they are already losing out on their operation of only providing support for traditional bankers. Majority of their customers who are already crypto adopters and waiting for the best opportunity they will have with cryptocurrency bank will end up dumping their system of banking full for the cryptocurrency banking system, it will be too soon too for them to join them in the race. This is good news among many others to boost crypto and I am happy they won in their court case.

Just another useless thread. I didn't even bother reading what you posted after reading the title of the thread. Why would someone want "banks" if they are using crypto currencies.
You are right and wrong at the same time. I am also a big hater of traditional banking still we cannot be depending on crypto wallet for all my banking needs. In other simple words, we must need more years of time before finishing up all our banking needs within our crypto wallet and in-between time, we may need to depend on hybrid banking which denotes traditional banking with crypto facilities.
210  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TIPS TO PROFIT DURING A BEARISH MARKET on: March 29, 2019, 06:52:52 PM
One of the best strategy I used in making profits even in a bearish market is trading between normal coin and usdt, no matter how bearish the market is, one thing that never change is that there will always be a fall and rise in the price of crypto coin which can be of great advantage once one is able to swap between usdt and a normal coin, once there is going to be a drop, you swap for usdt, and once the dip has happened, you swap back to normal coin.

Stop loss can be very helpful at most times in trading. Whether for bullish or in bearish market.
Making use of stop-loss cannot be a strategy IMO but it is part of your entry/exit cycle of a trade. Stop-loss is a feature for that we may go for to cut loss earlier so that we may avoid big losses.

Unambiguously, everyone understands that it is Bitcoin that influences the pricing of all cryptocurrencies, but at the same time its importance is stuck on one level. What to expect further is not clear.
You mean that we must have bitcoin to be at stable price levels so that we may trade all other cryptocurrencies with ease predictions ? There are traders who target USD value and I am a trader and I always look for BTC value. I guess now you may get how to trade regardless of where bitcoin market is trading.
211  Economy / Economics / Re: What should you do in bearish market? on: March 29, 2019, 06:07:15 PM
I guess watching netflix is a good option, if not youtube is great for watching videos as well Grin Grin.
I think reading a book would be better than all of that because it would make you smarter (depending on the book of course) and broaden your imagination for sure.

Whatever you do trading on bear market is always a danger and if possible and if you can than you should stay away from it. However, lets say you need to trade on bear markets than all you can do is to drop your dollar cost averages down, if you bought from 5 than buy again at 3, if it goes down to 1 buy again, there is not much else to do during bad markets.

I had a lot of coins at higher prices (around 8k) but than I dropped that down when it went to 5k or so and now I purchased so much during this 3k times that I have managed to drop my averages down to 4.1k as of right now, its even possible for me to sell for a profit, that is all you can hope to achieve during these days.
212  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Discussion: Altcoin (own their blockchain) vs Alt-token (relie on other B-chain) on: March 29, 2019, 01:45:44 PM
To be selfish, I will prefer altcoins to depend on other blockchain, especially ethereum blockchain, looking at ethereum, this is its main product and if every token starts operating on their own which they can, their value will not be fast in growing and at the same time, will not promote other existing blockchain, many of the projects that has depended on ethereum blockchain has really assisted ethereum price value.

It means if they start owning their blockchain, a lot of the users will migrate to theirs and dump ethereum and I would not want that for ethereum now. Though we have quite number of projects that goes on ethereum temporarily pending the time their own blockchain will be ready.
213  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Mithril (MITH) Partners with SWAG.live – Taiwanese Adult Industry Platform on: March 28, 2019, 09:38:47 PM
Even in the world today without the blockchain, the adult industry has always been one with a very large market because a lot of people in the world wants to do adult things even though they wouldn't want to admit it. The adult market is worth billions of dollars, and the introduction of the blockchain makes it even more anonymous thereby making it a very good ground for others to join the adult market even in the nearest future.
214  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to minimise the trading fee? on: March 28, 2019, 06:40:27 PM
Any recommendations?
Currently in Australia, I would like to seek for an exchange platform with lowest trading fee but also with regulation.
Don't shoot the unregulated exchange to me, I hope my currency to be safe.
Trading fees is solely dependent on the exchanges and I am not sure it would be possible to minimize trading fees unless you are not ready to place a lot of trade for profit, this means you have to check the market so well for a coin that would give you a lot of profit and buy into those coin and then pull out from the market after making profit.

Exchange trading fees are fixed based in the exchange you are trading on and there is no way to minimize it until you are ready to minimize your trade orders.
215  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the global currency cannot be 100% internet based and if we will have one on: March 27, 2019, 04:25:58 PM
I believe the world has really advanced and technology has taking over. There is literally no country that does not have internet services and if your fear would that the currency can be targeted or shut down, I think that is not possible. To shut down the internet worldwide will not be an easy task.

The US dollar for example is already considered a Global currency, although it does not hold an official title yet, it is used more on the internet for various transactions than even the cash, the only difference it has from bitcoin is that it is not decentralized and this is what makes Bitcoin has an edge over it. I think having a global currency that is 100% internet based, either in form of Bitcoin or USD would not be a problem at all.

Almost everyone is acquainted with the internet now, it will only take a little time to pull people out of the old system and introduce the new payment method.
216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction also a result of trauma? on: March 26, 2019, 04:17:44 PM
It is possible that other addiction cases can be as a result of a traumatic experience but gambling addition is definitely not.

Gambling addiction occurs as a result of too much time spent on the game and lack of self-control, even research has proven   that too much time spent on gambling has an effect on the brain that can lead to addiction; I think my best friend is a perfect example of this. He is presently in a Rehab for gambling addiction and he’s gradually recovering.

My friend had never had any trauma all his life. I introduced him to gambling when we were at high school and he fell so much in love with gambling that he couldn’t even stay for hours without playing.  He would play both online and offline and it got to a point he started selling all his properties just to gamble.

Please note that he is from a very healthy and wealthy and has never had any history of abuse that could lead to trauma, he has enjoyed all the love he needed from   home and he was never playing for money or to ease any form of tension. It was for fun, but it went out of control.
217  Economy / Economics / Re: The prevailing market condition a blessing? on: March 25, 2019, 07:28:55 AM
I think it's a blessing because I like to see the price become more stable, the rising is slow but stable, the rush rising is going to create major correction and that could scare away the potential investors
Lol Grin. Have you noticed that the majority of those that comes here to complain that they bought at the peak price are newbies. They are likely to be greedy, and for sure they invested due to what their friends told them. Just like one of my friends that is always saying that Bitcoin is a way to make quick money. He deceived a lot of others and told them that price will continue to go up and that was in 2016 I guess Roll Eyes. Now a lot of them are regretting and blaming the guy For deceiving them.

can we say that the bearish market drives adoption of Cryptocurrency?
Is it a blessing to cryptosphere?
Maybe… majority of those you see who are complaining now are those who got into the market out of fomo and now they are regretting why they did it. So, the mistake was from them and the worst of it all is that they never cared to take action when the price was dropping from that peak price, rather they kept staring at it till it crashed over fifty percent. As for me, this is another opportunity.
218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Huobi vs BNB on: March 24, 2019, 07:07:42 PM
Have you ever heard of IEO? It's taking all over the Binance world. And it voices out through community. This thing was implemented in binance and it was a success. Binance is more of a big exchange than Huobi. I think Binance will still win this. BNB will be the next coin to pump.
It is really not a case to contend with, it pure and glaring that none of these imitators can ever do it better than Binance, Binance being the first to even carry out IEO successfully will always make it standout as the giant of these copycat exchanges, ever since the inception of BTC and it became popular, have we not seen lots of coin try to imitate them, where are those coins now ?

They are far below the marketcap of BTC and still finding it hard to keep their space, talk less of struggling to rise to BTC, same is the case of Huobi and otherexchanges, they can never play their game as much as Binance will do, BNB token will always gain more than any other coin smaller exchanges comes up with or any similar project they also engage in.
219  Economy / Economics / Re: And Now Visa Wants To Enter Crypto on: March 24, 2019, 02:14:54 PM
Visa is not against crypto because it is killing their business, they are against it because they are not fully prepared for now. I mean if you give visa time to build their own blockchain and bank agreement period and they do all that than they will be cheaper and faster as well which means crypto and specially blockchain won't be a rival to them because it will be help for them.

Visa must LOVE blockchain because you can literally send and receive millions of dollars for a dollar and that means for visa and banks that use visa the costs are going down like hell, during a time when economy is getting worse all around the world the bank that says "we will charge less" will get the customer, hence why I feel like Visa will always prefer to like blockchain, they just needed time.
220  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies Analytic Reports | CORindex on: March 23, 2019, 07:43:54 PM
From what I gather by the last report it looks like ethereum is really on a good track, there is a lot of potential.
Not that bitcoin doesn't it does too but it already went up a lot and unless we are on the verge of a big bull run it will not go that high, maybe 200 bucks at best but most likely will go down a bit.

Ethereum on the other hand has a lot of upwards potential from here, it can go all the way to 200 dollars if you ask me, the dynamics are all there for it to be ready. I was surprised to see redd and doge there, I never really see them as fully tradeable coins, they look like just joke coins to me, of course there are people who made tons of money with trading those coins but I just can't help but laugh at those coins Cheesy Don't know if I will ever be able to trade them.
