201  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When to get in and get out in Bear/Bull Markets on: October 25, 2018, 08:53:57 AM
Bear market and bull market both have its own advantages and disadvantages but if you do not have any worry about your future survival then you can easily wait for Bitcoin’s price that goes high and you sell it for profit so this is the way to get rid of disadvantages. By obeying rules, all the disadvantages will be advantages for you. Currently, in this bear market it will have benefit only if you start buying coins and moreover in bull market everywhere are benefits if you have this precious coin.
Yes, as long as you do not have the knowledge to pull it through, staying in the bearish market and not getting to care about some of the things going on in the short term and looking at the future is what is more important. The best thing to do is to always take advantage of buying the low markets and then looking to sell the bullish rallies as people keep getting greedy and you cannot actually be getting it better as long as you do not get greedy along the line. A lot of people do the opposite, which is the reason why they even find it hard to cope in any part of the market to their advantage at all.

I know it's quite tough to judge that when to enter a bull run and when to exit at the right time. A single mistake can decrease all your gains.
I have been facing this issue and that is when I decided to  limit my profits and dedicate a % of amount for the profits.
Just look out for the patterns to guide you, and that is all. Pattern is not something you can easily identify if you actually do not have the best of knowledge to guide you into knowing what you should be doing and the decisions you should be making at every point in time. Getting in or out of a bull or bear market requires being able to spot the trend changes, and if you cannot easily do that without having to add emotions, it would be pretty hard for you to even understand what you should be doing at all to take advantage of the market.
202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think mining is still fair on: October 24, 2018, 10:47:09 AM
As I see, mining is still profitable only in countries with extremely low electricity costs, in most countries it is not fair and even you might lose money by doing it.
Mining has always been dependent of several different factors and variables, but the thing with mining is that it requires some patience most of the time to be able to get something substantial and even with that, it depends on the level of mining you are operating and the coins you are mining as well. Mining is still fair to some certain extent, but the fact remains that it is not for everyone, and if you really do not have some bucks to tie down, you may not really be getting pretty much from it. So at the end, the whole choice is always in your hands.

It is always fair because everyone must solve the same algorithm based on the number of active Miners, the algorithm will be different. Those who own more Miner will earn more rewards, and lesser owners will receive less.
OP is asking about "fair" in the sense of "how much beneficial" mining business right now. You are still right as mining will be profitable only for corporate level of miners but it is hard truth mining rewards must be held out for selling in future so that a miner will able to find the maximum benefits.
203  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can anyone suggest some altcoins to buy? on: October 24, 2018, 09:46:43 AM
if you are buy new project you can't predict about future.
but if you are buying on going project of complete project, you can find project are good.
because in this situation that project are survive.
like ETH, or LOKI, loki has come back from under 2k sat to 6k sat for now.
I think they will grow up more.
Whether it is a new project or an ongoing project or possible one that has not even started at all, what is important is to at least get to understand that in every light, you are at least sure of the potential of the project in the long run. It is not really about how long the coin or token has been in the market, it is all about the value and business solution it actually creates as this is what would give it huge support as well as sustainable demand based on real life usage in the long run. One thing certainly a lot of people normally do not understand.

GVT - the platform launch is a week away, easy gains this week. If you like what you read about the platform in the meantime, let the tokens ride. Or sell the launch, its up to you.
You are literally suggesting to go for gambling. In my opinion which is not at all a right thing to do in open discussion because it may trap many innocent people here which eventually just due to some random responses like you just did. OP is asking for life changing long term perspective coins, then we must suggest only highly reputed things.
204  Economy / Speculation / Re: How is future looking for Bitcoin and Blockchain in 2019? on: October 23, 2018, 06:22:39 PM
The future of bitcoin is always changing from good to bad and back again in the short term but in the long long long term is is always looking good
If you are considering the fact that it has been changing from good to bad, that depends on how you are seeing it as an individual and how pessimistic you are. On the optimal level, everything with bitcoin has been good. At least for the chance that we are even getting to buy lower at this good bargain is one plus and secondly, for the fact that this market actually looks very bullish in the long term and the fact that right from the start, this market has been in an uptrend, and considering the low of early last year, to what we are considering a low now, come on bro, there is a lot of things to be happy about.
205  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to Trade cryptocurrencies comfortably with profit on: October 23, 2018, 02:48:31 PM
Many have asked 'is it possible to trade cryptocurrency comfortably and still make profit?' The answer could be yes, though it depends on many factors.
Best way to trade has always been trend trading.

If you look at the price of bitcoin whenever it goes up 3%-5% range than it goes up a bit more and whenever it goes down 3%-5% range it goes down a bit more. Except recently when it is just stable and not moving much to any sides.

If you do not count these last 2 months trend trading has been a great method. Check out the altcoins for it because they are more volatile than bitcoin, bitcoin even tho much more volatile than the regular stuff like stocks and golds it is still more stable than altcoins which can change 50% in a day easily.

I have seen a coin pumped to 800% in a day, that was the max I have seen, in a regulated market that would have been a problem but in crypto it is alright. Hence, if you see a coin pumped a lot you can get in early and take advantage of it. Just don't get in too late because than you will be part of the dump.
Well, just like they always tell every new trader to know that trend is their friend, absolutely makes trend the most important aspect of trading to understand if you really want to be doing well. I can understand a lot of people may not understand how they should treating the market, let alone getting profit from it, because they have no knowledge and understanding of trading and that is one thing a lot of people should know. Trading is not gambling, but a pure profession in which you need to be conversant with some decision making for you to do things right and in a case where you flop in learning, you cannot get anything at all.
206  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Paying for education on: October 23, 2018, 01:24:07 PM
I did not receive any training in trading and I regret very much because during the first year of trading I lost several thousand dollars on various very primitive mistakes that beginners often make.
This is the reason it is important to know the tricks and tips and the way to evaluate projects before investing in cryptocurrency. We have so many online websites that could be easily accessed with a mere touch of finger like YouTube and Google that gives all the information free of cost and this information is enough to guide any individual regarding making any decision related to investment. This regret right now will never let you invest your money for free next time. Rather start learning the latest ways to trade.
You didn’t receive any training that’s why you lost big money in trading and I told many times in this forum that trading is not easy and must be well aware of the market before staring trade in cryptocurrency. Experience, skills, knowledge and technical analysis of the market is mandatory for affective trading otherwise you will fail in making profits in cryptocurrency trading.
Training and education is one essential part of trading that cannot be discarded and it is indeed the most important thing when it comes to the first thing you need to do first when considering hitting the trading profession. Trading entirely is not an easy task as you will need to always be making some pretty good and quick decisions most of the time, and because of that, if you have no proper training or tutoring, and you do not have the zeal to at least learn on your own appropriately without rushing a thing, you cannot get the best of it.

Training in terms of education is a lot better as you will get put through a lot of things you need to know by professionals before you even start, unlike having to mix up resources on your own, but not like the latter is not achievable as well though.
207  Economy / Speculation / Re: The falling can't be real on: October 22, 2018, 06:20:07 PM
The falling of bitcoin price is just temporary it wont' even last long because i also believe that a bull run is about to start this final quarter of this year.  Those who were able to hodl their crypto assets will surely enjoy the benefits of it when the bull run has start running.
Sometimes it is actually real that the price falls but sometimes you are right it is manipulated and speculative. The price moves according to supply/demand and thats it, there is no other excessive regulations on top of it. There is no SEC to control or regulate the price. Hence, the price changes are never really looked into and we can't really trust how and why it happens.

For example, the other day there was a problem with tether and everyone was selling their tether and moving back to bitcoin which spiked the price up insanely and than it dropped back closer to what it used to be. Now, lets take a look at what could happen afterwards, someone who has tether literally can sell his tethers, get people to sell theirs too and when bitcoin hits high notes sell his bitcoin and go back to tether which eventually will go back to 1 dollar and make the double profit. Its really easy to manipulate the crypto market.
208  Economy / Speculation / Re: What rate is crypto market cap adding alts? on: October 22, 2018, 05:32:38 PM
I would like to know the rate of cmc is adding alts and the cap of those alts.

its up to 2112 now, and was 2000 not so long ago, I feel this is distorting market cap,  as a very long tail is developing.
As long as the coin is listed on an exchange and has a volume it is added right away. There is no reason not to add a coin just because it is new or it is not used as much anymore. There are many coins like swisscoin that got even dilluted down when it was one satoshi so potentially people who had one swiss coin ended up with less than one satoshi which should have been impossible but they managed to do it and with that in mind its still at coinmarketcap because and the volume is close to half a bitcoin right now.

There are even coins like bitsilver or swing or mooncoin and what not that has hundred bucks of volume and still listed there because they exist. As long as it exists somewhere than it is listed on coinmarketcap because why shouldn't it.
209  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how traders keep their crypto? on: October 22, 2018, 11:10:35 AM
how you guys keep your crypto when do trading?

leave it in exchange wallet? Isn't it too risky?
Store in a hot or cold personal wallet? isn't it too annoying to transmit every time?
I do not keep my coins in one exchange to begin with. I dilute them into multiple exchanges and if possible download the wallet for that coin as well. If there is someone out there who trade daily than they can answer this much better because daily traders are buying and selling everyday and they need to have funds on the exchange constantly however if they are keeping their coins there all the time that means they should be really trusting the exchange really a lot.

I do long term investment and when I buy a coin I usually hold it for a long period of time and if you are holding a coin for a long period of time than you can download the wallet of that coin and keep it on your computer which would create a great security for your coins. It doesn't mean nothing will happen to them but it certainly is better than keeping it on a third party website than your own computer.
210  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I stop trading in this bear market? on: October 22, 2018, 10:10:10 AM
Trading is like an addiction, but this bear market seems will be very long. Bitcoin is going to under 6k USD, ETH is now 262 USD, Almost 80% coin fell down. I can't make profits at this moment in trading, Because after getting a little bit of profit, the market again goes under, then another coin eats my profit too. What should I do now?
It all depends on what you are trading. For example you should not stop trading bitcoin-usd in anyway, of course try to avoid stuff like usdt and try to keep it 100% btc-usd instead of stuff like usdt-btc or whatever or if you want to keep trading on bnb pairs on binance that is still viable because the exchange is still going strong so trading for it still worth a lot.

Even trading ethereum and ripple could be advantageous these days because they are so low that buying them wouldn't hurt at these prices. However if you want to trade more unknown smaller coins that no one really cares about and has low volume than you should be careful with them.

The only possible way you profit from a low volume obscure coin is if it gets pumped and dumped and for those types of stuff I suggest putting a loss stop and a sell order so you would not get hurt by a lot if it goes down since you have a stop loss and you would profit if it goes up since you have a sell order.
211  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to profit from the market, bulls or bears on: October 22, 2018, 08:56:58 AM
You have to select your weapons. You can't really invest into everything and hope that they will go up all together at once, right now the market is stagnant and unless the whole market goes after a huge bull than you will not have a chance of making any decent return while we are here.

You need to focus on getting one or two coins that you believe in will rising and buy them and if the price of those coins x2 or x3 than you will have to get out and find new coins. That is the only way you can make money with these types of stagnant markets. While we are on a bull there is absolutely no way to lose money aside from getting scammed, if you invest into stuff like btc-eth-dash-xmr-ripple and so forth than you will make profits, however on a bear market only way to make profits is to actually bet on the shorts to make money for dropping of the price.
212  Economy / Economics / Re: China Threatens Overseas Tax Havens, Will Investors Flock to Crypto? on: October 21, 2018, 05:25:03 PM
China became a world power by mainly manufacturing and making everything cost fraction of what it used to be I get that and right now almost all the world owes them money because people have been getting stuff done in china since its cheaper than in any country but don't you start to feel that china has started to abuse that power ?

I understand they have trillion of dollars they need to collect from other countries but does that give them legit powers to do stuff like these? I mean I agree that overseas tax havens are a horrible thing but what will draw the line? How about an American company doing work in china using American bank ? Will that be "overseas tax haven" ?

If you keep companies tied to china one way or another and not let them work with their own countries I am pretty sure you will be the one who lose because people will be scared and leave eventually.
213  Economy / Economics / Re: Binance about to offer Fiat-Crypto Trading. on: October 21, 2018, 03:34:55 PM
It has been going around for months now and still nothing has been done about direct fiat instead of tokens like usdt. I think binance would profit a lot from this and we need it like yesterday. There are places like coinbase (each country have their own probably) that allows you to send dollar (or your own fiat) to the exchange from your bank account and there are stuff like binance that allows you to trade between hundreds of altcoins.

If binance manages to keep the altcoin trading between hundreds of coins and also adds couple big countries with fiat exchange as well where you can withdraw and deposit dollars from an american bank for example, they would definitely be amazing. I know binance is already big but with such an improvement it would become the clear leader in all levels for a long time.
214  Economy / Economics / Re: Sick and tired of the cryptocurrency bullshit!!! on: October 21, 2018, 08:16:31 AM
You do not have to be depressed because of the crash in the market at present. Look on the bright side and enjoy this moment of stability with bitcoin price. For a long time we have not have this low and controlled volatility. Also, know that every business us controlled by the big monies. It is not with cryptocurrency alone.
I agree with this, you need to take advantage of whatever opportunity the market gives you, in the previous year we had a bull market and we could take advantage of this, and now we have low prices, while many seem to be mad about this, this is a great opportunity because as we know in the future there is going to be another bull market and when that happens if you took the opportunity to accumulate coins at this price then your profits at that time will be amazing.
This is just due to people's mindset, when you get to dig into it can be pathetic sometimes. Take a look around today, and all you will see are people who are so bound on getting rich as quick as they can and then looking for every means around to do so, without wanting to ask questions or learn. I see people like this as a paper being driven back and forth in a wind, and could just land anywhere.

No knowledge, no focus, no long term goals, no plans for the future, and I wonder how people like this really want to thrive in the long run and not just fail, and start ranting on why the whole space suck when they actually are the ones that suck.
215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why should i always have fiat? on: October 21, 2018, 07:37:53 AM
For normal life ? I mean if you mean on trading deals than having fiat makes no sense at all, if you believe the price is going down and that's why you want to stay in fiat while the coin values drop why not buy shorts as well ? That way you won't have to stay in fiat and if the price goes down as you think than you will make a lot of profit with it as well.

If you do not trust the prices to go down that much than you can turn back into alts as well. However if you mean normal life than having fiat is really just what you need on regular life, unless you have some sort of debit card bitcoin thingy that allows you to spend your coins in regular shops and markets than you need fiat to survive in real world because not enough places accept bitcoin yet.
216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Important HITBTC Question?! on: October 21, 2018, 06:55:28 AM
Don't panic,please post your TXID of your transaction it will help us to know the transaction was confirmed or in pending.Some times the transaction will take more time for all confirmations after that only your BTC will show up of exchange's wallet.

But another chance maybe its exchange's fault so if you are waiting too long then you need to contact support team because already lot of similar cases were there on that exchange.
I hope if it is the exchange's fault, he will be able to get anything from support. We all know how HitBTC support is like; which is one of the main reasons why a lot of traders have tried as much as possible to avoid this exchange like a plague. It could be the transaction time, let's hope that is the case, but for now, if it is actually a problem from the exchange part, which may be a real tough issue to get resolved with the support.

We have seen cases like this before even on this thread that the said person just ended up accepting their losses and if it ended up being that case for OP, I hope it was not something huge.
217  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if we buy bitcoins now all TOGETHER?! on: October 20, 2018, 05:35:21 PM
The humanity is not build that way, we do not trust each other that much to survive let alone do something collectively that might have consequences that would profit some and not you.

If you think about it if we are going to build a house together and all live in it together than we would all work because we would all benefit, however if we are going to build a house and than we will have a draw to see how gets to live in that it would be harder for people to build that house, and the one who gets the house will not be helping the others building the next house willingly because he already has one.

Now if you buy bitcoin all together some people may sell quicker than others, that is what happens during a pump, you all get in at 100-105 levels and than agree that you will leave after 150 levels and some just leave at 120 because they are afraid you won't wait until 150, they are doing some bad because they fear you will do something bad. This is how humanity works. If we all buy bitcoins right now all together than some will leave after a couple percent increase.
218  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin worthy to buy ? right now? on: October 20, 2018, 11:18:25 AM
Right now bitcoin price is very low, some investor are investing their money for buying bitcoin.
is bitcoin worthy to buy ? right now?
Do you agree with this or not ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,???

before starting any investment with cryptocurrency we must understand with all the risks that will be gained in investing with any cryptocurrency at low prices to buy maybe it can also be a strategy possible with confidence and patience clever use of the opportunities to invest
That is always the thing. Not just in cryptocurrency but generally when it comes to investment. Risk is something that will always be attached to every single investment and for the fact that this is something no one can change and the more the potential in the long term at time, the more the risks, then you just have to understand ways to minimize those risks to your advantage as an individual.

Bitcoin right now is worthy to buy but people should understand it could still go lower as no one knows the future anyway, but one thing for sure is that, they should always know that no matter what, buying lower is always a good option for the greater good.
219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: October 20, 2018, 10:48:47 AM
No its not a wrong idea to convince people in gambling but at the same time, if you will convince people you must give some advice to them like don't be too greedy or have self control like that. If you just convince them and there are some problems that will occur onto them, it can be your fault if they lose because you convince them.
Yeah it is right and I agree with this type of convincing. I think that convincing people for regular gambling is a worst thing and it means that are going to become a source of producing bad people of the community. We all know that some regular and addicted gamblers become criminals to get some money for their gambling. You should avoid people from gambling.
I condemn convincing people for gambling. Gambling is not good at all although if you gamble for fun and entertainment and not for making money. When you feel the lust of money you will not be able to quit gambling and gradually you will become gambling addicted and will lose everything. It is better to convince people for some other positive activities.
That is more like convincing people to do something bad that would possibly affect their life in the long run and how will the person who ends up convincing someone in that scenario end up being able to live with it when they see such person they convinced getting hit by a rock of addiction.

Let people make that decision on their own than trying to convince them and even if they want to gamble, let them know the risk involved and what they should be doing to at least be in control all the time. In this case even though they want to gamble, you are at least helping them not to get too excited expecting so much from gambling.
220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Life with a Gambler - Solution! on: October 20, 2018, 10:00:12 AM
~snip
It is good that you care for your family. Life with a gambler is very hard and your family will feel bad while you lose money in gambling especially the money which is necessary for your family. If you want to gamble you should use extra money and not the money for your daily needs. If you do so you will lose your respect in your family and they will be in depressed conditions.
I think it's best to take care of your family. For me, it's the number one priority in my life, next to getting rich. lol. I want to be rich and having the right mindset is the way to do it. It should always be like that, not using the budgeted money. I think they wouldn't just lose respect but they may hate you for it.
Taking care of family is always going to be the number one priority, there is no doubt about that and it is just a pity that sometimes, certain people tend to get engrossed in their gambling activities, that they let it not only affect their lives, but also that of those who are close to them and in this case, I am referring to nuclear family members.

Gambling is one thing you really do not want to be taking as a regular thing if you are even a family man as that in the end will not even pass a good message, and for the fact that you have so much responsibility and you are gambling the money away shows real act of irresponsibility.
