201  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The market is green today from 3.1 to 3.7K BTC, will bull reconnect? on: December 20, 2018, 08:50:53 AM
There is plenty of resistances on the way up. I was sceptical about the signs of bull pressure but it looks more and more sereious.
202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 2018 in 4 Words – ICOs and Ethereum Are Dead on: December 20, 2018, 08:46:53 AM
Unless you’re Spencer Bogart, most people would agree that 2018 has been a dismal year for crypto–even if they don’t say it on their Twitter feeds. If you want to sum up the year in four words, you could try using these: ICOs and Ethereum are dead.

Forums, Telegram groups, Slack chats, there’s no shortage of predictions for Ethereum’s collapse, ICOs futures, FUD, and personal nagging fears about ending up in a dumpster. But, beyond the gossip and speculation, what do the industry insiders have to say?

Ethereum si not dead. It was adopted by hundreds of projects and attracted lots of developers. It is not in a good shape now but it is definitely not going to die.

It is probably based on a troublesome research published a few weeks ago. Proportion of wash trading volume is especially scary in low volume and Chinese exchanges  Embarrassed
There are some chances of adjusted volumes still contain fake volumes too. Look at bitforex that was a horrible exchange site i have ever seen in these days. Chinese exchange that doesn't apply trade fees can be manipulated to easily.

Indeed, I have tried to avoid depositing a single satoshi to Bitforex exchange. Unfortunately, there are more of similar exchanges.

205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves knock out Ethereum on: December 19, 2018, 09:41:03 AM
The best thing about Waves is its counter-trend behaviour. It has happened frequently that Waves held its market cap even if almost all other crypto assets declined. In fact, I still don't know why ..  Grin
206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Whales Holding More ETH on: December 19, 2018, 09:36:23 AM
It is a logical move by whales, and it can be seen in almost every market - buying strategic asset when price hits (or nears) the bottom. They know that ETH has a bright future and only buy with discount. 
207  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: It is right to come back? on: December 19, 2018, 09:19:36 AM
It seemed like a dead cat's bounce but now the bullish momentum looks healthy. We might be in the beginning of a nice wave  Smiley
208  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you worried about the latest crashes or do you stay calm? on: December 19, 2018, 08:24:36 AM
Hello,

I want to know how the community thinks of the recent crashes. Although most of the altcoins and bitcoin are already on the rise again and made lots of gains, if you look at the big pictures cryptocurrencies took a big hit.

What do you do in a situation like this? Do you invest in more stable coins and token or are you more of a hodler and wait for the downtrend to be over?

From the two groups you named I am rather the latter. However, we are still far from covering recent losses even for those who jumped in two months ago.
209  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: These 24 ICOs raised $2.8 Billion. They have almost 0 trading volume. on: December 18, 2018, 07:55:29 PM
Some of them might be scams or at least half dead project but I would not say that the rest of projects are in economic trouble. It is not a stock market, they can operate and develop very well regardless of their coin value. 
210  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which Altcoins still kept its stance and still standing strong from 2017 ranks? on: December 18, 2018, 07:29:46 PM
That comparison would be interesting, indeed. I know about coins that I hold (or held for some time) such as Ardor, Golem and Bancor.
211  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum futures in the horizon? on: December 18, 2018, 07:24:53 PM
Regarding to Bitcoin futures I would not be that optimistic about pump in Ethereum after launching ETH futures. There are still thousands of ICO projects that sell ETH regularly to cover their fiat expenses and that is what drags the price down.
212  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Can I earn 1 bitcoin in 1 year through bounties ?? on: December 18, 2018, 12:38:11 PM
I am in the crypto world since a long time but I never earned 1 BTC whole ever..I never took bounties too seriously but now I am jobless and want to start with bounty...how much can be earned with bounties specially with my rank..

I think it is possible if you really get yourself into bounties but it requires lots of time. Due to your rank I would recommend rather social media or content creation bounties. 
213  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: VeChain good time to invest? on: December 18, 2018, 12:29:59 PM
I have also bought some VeChain coins recently since it is one of very undervalued coins even in this bear market. Hopefully we are right ..  Smiley
214  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Republic Protocol: Decentralized Dark Pools / Low Cap Extreme Upside on: December 18, 2018, 12:16:50 PM
Dear dbt1033, your analyses are always welcomed, I followed you in some trades in the first half of the year.  Wink
Now to the point - what makes you think that dark pools operation is a future gainer? In stock industry, these dark pools usually take very long time to establish themselves.
215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Holding shitcoins will not make u rich on: December 18, 2018, 12:10:50 PM
The fact that those shitcoins are not here anymore does not mean that it cannot be a profitable trade. I made profitable trades with utter shitcoins, it is just about knowing when to exit.
216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The bull is here on: December 18, 2018, 11:47:23 AM
It is too early to assume, it might be a dead cat's bounce as well. Downtrend has not been broken yet.
217  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which wallet to use? on: December 18, 2018, 10:38:16 AM
It depends on your preference. If you are using a mobile, you need something light, agile and secure with a good user interface - after all, instructing transfers on a bad app would be hard - I like IMToken wallet

As for a laptop, im old school and like the ethereum wallet from Github - but Metamask is also a great browser experience.

Then depending on how much you holding, will lead you to a hardware wallet - I use Ledger Nano.


Thank you. Would you recommend a source (eg. book, website, other) that explains the technicalities of how a wallet work?

I would focus more on ICO long-term investing rather than frequent trading so I would like to understand which specific features I should look for in a wallet.


 
For ETH tokens, I use MEW. Reliable and easy to use wallet.


What is the difference (if any) between MEW and the Ethereum wallet sponsored on the Ethereum website?

Thanks again to all

Try this article to get better understanding of how wallets work - Cryptocurrency wallet guide.
I don't know what wallet is sponsored on Ethereum website but you cannot make a mistake with MEW.
218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bright future for Ripple? on: December 18, 2018, 10:30:36 AM
Seems like holidays will bring us more presents this year.

We are noticing and uptrend of XRP/USD. Following a strong 6% increase, it is $0.31. Quite a good news, considering the fall this weekend till $0.29. What is bothering us that XRP/BTC charts, but thats not for long. XRP has noted very strong gains over the past few years and the next bull run could be very spectacular, it could reach $9 in a few months. But its to early to say so of course, considering the current situation on the market.

I still have high hopes for XRP!

Whats your thoughts people?

I am far from being a 'fan' of of Ripple, it is a heavily centralized currency with history of questionable decisions. That being said, there is some upwards potential in XRP..

Very interesting new use case of Chainpoint:

"Jungla Uses Chainpoint To Improve The Auditability of Genetic Data"

https://medium.com/tierion/jungla-uses-chainpoint-to-improve-the-auditability-of-genetic-data-39acf7f91bd2

Thanks for sharing. As far as I understand this is quite sophisticated and complex integration (verifying those molecular predictions etc.). Thumbs up!

Use Lympo to Earn Cash While You Workout

If you find yourself running or walking a lot, or plan to in the near future, this app gives you the ability to earn money while you’re doing it! Lympo is an app that uses block-chain technology to create a redeemable currency that can be earned and spent from within the app. The token that is generated from the block-chain technology has a real world value.  https://www.xda-developers.com/use-lympo-to-earn-cash-while-you-workout/

It is already much further than the most popular running/fitness apps like Runtastic and Endomondo. I hope that more people will find it out soon too.  Wink
