2061  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Sec regulation making the Bull market slower? on: December 09, 2019, 04:49:03 PM
We yet to see another Bull market after 2017. SEC is significantly regulating the Crypto but it's still yet to be processed. ICos, STOs then ETF, are we going to get any indication for those staff sooner?

Regulations in many countries for sure helped to stop the ICO craze. But the failing to bring profits of the ICO projects is what is the main reason. Most ICOs were a crowd funding's for a project that could not get founds in a bank or of some angel investors. Reason for that was clear. They did not see it will be profitable. And now 2-3 years latter we can see that most were not. So. Not sure what else to expect then that people just rather decide to pass on new ICOs.

FED balance sheet has expanded 300B since September i believe.

Oh so you believe FED will fake Bitcoin transactions and mine this fake block and scam people they trade with?  Who they trade with? And you think they will those people that trade with FED will not make charges against FED?  Do you think when public finds out for this fraud FED director will not lose job before he will go to prison for fraud?

I would suggest you to google what 51% attack does and how you can profit with it.  I would also suggest you to google why 51% attacks on PoS chains are lethal.
2063  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: DO YOU feeL THE MARKET WILL CRASH TOO ? on: December 08, 2019, 03:23:59 PM
I have this impression bitcoin will go very very very low and bringing all alts with him,
ETH to 80$
BTC to 1000 $....
LTC to 10 $...

Bitcoin will not go under $3000.  $3200 was bottom that bitcoin reach a week less then a year ago. Bottom means that that is lowest price. If you will wait for Bitcoin under $3000 you will be dearly disappointed. Most likely Bitcoin will not go under $6000.

Weekly volume charts are way better way to see trends.  It seems we will start 12th week soon.

Which cryptocurrencies are highly undervalued these days?

Most are way over valuated since they have no use case and are worth close to zero.  There is possibility that also the rest are over valuated. You see their marketcaps are in billions of dollars. Big companies are worth less then that. It is very hard to value them beside demand and supply. But demand and supply might be tricky, since we are at top of economic cycle. All stock exchange indexes are at ATH. When that collapse, there will be way less stupid money available for crypto.
2066  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Questions for New Altcoins on: December 08, 2019, 12:31:04 AM
So, my questions are
1. Why there are still investors in the new altcoins project? For what they invest if they know new altcoins are only about risks and losses?
2. Who are those developers that always create new altcoins projects? Don't they know that most new projects just ended with failure?

If you ask about ICOs. They fake some big investors. Lets say they plan to sell 50 millions tokens. They just fake that they sold 30 millions and  is only 20 millions left. That way they boost marketcap and they look more appealing to new investors. They would not invest anything to someone that had gathered few $1000. But they will give everyone to someone that already gathered $20 millions.
2067  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Mobile Wallets on: December 07, 2019, 10:45:34 PM
Curious about the security of mobile wallets. Why are they considered less secure than other wallets? I currently use Trust Wallet which uses fingerprint ID or a pin. If my phone were to be compromised how would anyone be able to access it? How could they obtain my pin/fingerprint?

There is way more malware developed for computers then phones. So mobile wallets are way more secure then desktop wallets. You can of course reduce risk by dedicating your old computer to use as your wallet. So you dont download much if at all there beside updating wallets.

whats ur crazy prediction for near future guys?
i say 16.6-20k tis year,

Three weeks and a bit left of this year. We might be a bit behind your prediction. Growth you are expecting in three weeks  had not happened in whole last year.
2069  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If USDC is backed by USD, how does the $ get into the circle bank account? on: December 07, 2019, 08:26:41 PM
Perhaps this is a dumb question...but if I go onto Coinbase, or anywhere, and buy 1 USDC, how does the $1.00 USD I paid for it get into Cricles Bank account.  Audits show that Circle has 1 USD for every USDC, I'm just confused as to how that USD actually makes it from my bank account, to Circle's bank account?

Does circle decide who the fiat onramps (like Coinbase) are? And they have to buy the USDC from Circle consortium dollar for dollar?

Can someone enlighten me?

When Coinbase credit you with USDC they send your USD to Circle. There is no other way that this. They probably have some USDC on loan from circle to do this fast. When you sell them USDC and get Bitcoins or USD, they simply send those USDC to Circle and get USD for it.
2070  Economy / Economics / Re: Coinbase Holds a Whopping 966,230 Bitcoin ($7B) in Cold Wallet on: December 07, 2019, 07:23:20 PM
I'm not sure they should be advertising this. I just hope they have really really FIERCE security and are guarding their stash like hawks.

When you hold $7 billion you for sure have good security. That is a yearly budged of not that small country. Their cold storage's are for sure secured by guns.
2071  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What altcoins under 10 mio marketcap (with a team after the coin) has potential? on: December 07, 2019, 06:16:43 PM
Hello,

what coins under a marketcap of 10 million dollar with a good team / a good developer has a potential to grow really big in the future?

I want to invest in it a little amount and hold.

AEON have now $3 million marketcap. It is actively developed. Mayor upgrades happen usually twice a year.

2072  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin value on: December 07, 2019, 05:27:53 PM
Hi everyone, I'm new to the platform and a new crypto-currency lover and passionate about blockchain technology. I have lots of ideas and questions about crypto currencies and my first one, could Bitcoin see its value increase as much as in 2017? Thank you  Tongue

Probably not. Price in 2017 increased from $950 to $14000. That is over 1400%.  I dont see almost any chance we will see a 1400% price increase of Bitcoin in a single year ever again. Closest to this number will probably be year 2021.  2020 will be similar as this year so around 100% increase.
2073  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Flippening - what are your thoughts? on: December 06, 2019, 10:39:14 PM
ETH is getting closer to PoS mechanism and this could boost ETH value to new highs,

Price of Etehreum will most likely never reach the ATH it had in 2018. ICOs that were starting on ETH were what caused that price. Most of them have little use and new ICOs dont start anymore.
2074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Consider All Altcoins Bad on: December 06, 2019, 09:31:31 PM
The question is why do some people generalize all Altcoins as bad? considering there are over 3000 of them out there. One would not have the time to go through each project one by one. to analyze the project. team etc everything behind each crypto project.
There has to be some project out there under good intentions. Not all projects could be a scam. I admit I only have a top 4 i consider when it comes to best coins. But yet many should be decent at least honest projects out there. Afterall we do need more projects. more quality projects out there in order for crypto to succeed.

People can generalise whatever they want.   There is a game theory that tells us that everything gravitate to one center. Like we gravitate to earth. So does Moon. Because Earth is bigger then us and Moon. But they simply not see that there are more use cases for block chain. Right now we have a lot transparent ledger payment coins. That will not last. I mean they will exist but will have 0.00001% of Bitcoins marketcap. Same as wil happen with normal cryptocurrencies. There will be some, but will have 0.0000001% marketcap of Monero.
2075  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Year 2020 expectations on: December 06, 2019, 08:54:55 PM
Year 2020 expectations

It will be like 2016. Slightly up. That dont mean it will not go down also. But when it will will correct back fast. At end of year we will see similar profits as this year. Most likely a bit better.
2076  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: New Zcoin fork on: December 06, 2019, 06:14:35 PM
according to our calculation POW attacks costs about a couple billion dollars to attack and destroy bitcoin. The future is POS. POW is used as an extremely expensive and destructive way to distribute coins, which always end up in centralized CPU, GPU or ASIC mining farms anyway.

What you are saying makes no sense. Attacks cost billions. To gain little. That sounds quite secure.  You can also attack PoS with 51% attack and then is game over for that coin. 
ASIC mining is dangerous if there are secret ASIC producers that dont sell their ASIC and mine on it. Yes a lot of coins is such, I dont think Bitcoin at this point of time is such, but was in past.   You can mine Monero with your CPU and help to its decentralization.
2077  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Zcash Ever Reach a New ATH in price? on: December 06, 2019, 04:44:35 PM
Within Zcash's early days, many people were hyped about the project because it used a new, revolutionary technology for privacy. According to CMC, Zcash's ATH was well over $5k per coin.

No, that was part of their copy of Bitcoin emision scedule and slow that down first month. Combined with huge promotion for at least a year prior to launch. Huge hype formed that pushed price of coins skyhigh. First trades were made for 2000 BTC per ZEC. It is totally normal those prices will never get reach again. ZEC is trying to find bottom now. Question is when will that happened.
2078  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: December 06, 2019, 02:57:38 AM
Today many transactions are made on lightning. But some say that a lot Bitcoins onchain transactions are just tumbling coins with hope to make them untraceable. So this numbers cant tell us much, but trend can always tells us something.
2079  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: DigiByte delisted from Poloniex!!! on: December 06, 2019, 12:48:08 AM
DigiByte delisted from Poloniex!!!

When original Poloniex owners starting losing interest in crypto in 2017 slowly Poloniex went down. They were getting more and more customers but did not employ and educate new employees. They got bad owner in Circle. They employed more people but and did some updates, but that was far from enough. Luckily Justin Sun come around with bad of USD and perfect deal for Circle was made. I dont expect much from Poloniex in future. I just hope that they will not lose history of my deposits and withdrawals, so I will be able to rely on them when communicating with tax offices. But since I am sceptical I already exported all datas out. LOL.  Poloniex is an example how an exchange can go from top to bottom in two years.

i hope the bitcoin community will help while i provide you updates ect. This i what i could type asap and updates will be made.

Best to mine Monero is with CPU and Bitcoin with ASIC miners.
