2081  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: bitcoin or ethereum ? on: April 15, 2018, 02:43:52 PM
Is now the Right Time to Invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Should I Stay Away?

You should not stay away but just wait a little bit until the market will give you another chance to buy bitcoin and etherum at cheap price dude. It will become a good thing for you rather than try to rush buy ethereum and bitcoin at the bullish trend or you can try to buy a part to avoid another bullish trend again soon.
2082  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoins rallying on: April 15, 2018, 02:39:41 PM
Looked at altcoins and they've started rallying pretty hard all at once, whats the reason for this? Is it because of Bitcoin going sideways for a decent while or some other reason?
About what "Rally" are you speaking about?
I see only EOS was pumped for +35% and that's all. Other cryptocurrencies have a very little price movement (1-10%).
After such falls, even 10% is like a breath of air. And bitcoin is no longer so popular due to the number of appeared altcoins which are more effective and better in technology. So we wait when the altcoins will break the whole market and become a new lever of influence.
I also think that after a while the altoquin will dominate the market, and the bitcoin will go to the bottom plan. The growth we see today is certainly good, but I'm not sure that this growth can continue. The market is a very unpredictable thing, so you need to suffer a bit to make a profit.
Then I am sorry to say this that you need to correct your thinking. No kingdom can exist without its king and the king stays always above everyone else. Bitcoin is the crypto king. There is no altcoin on the face of Earth that can take over its throne. I am an admirer of Ethereum, neo and few other potential altcoins but it does not mean that I would go against the facts and reality. Neither should anyone else.
The place of bitcoin could be replaced by another coin but the impossible thing to replace all of the impacts that have been made by bitcoin to the majority of the market, people and more.

someone said about NEO, and that's another joke coin with pump and dump.
People are taking it quickly without any identification.
2083  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: can eth reach over 700 on: April 15, 2018, 08:58:52 AM
anyone beleive that eth will reach 700 in next 30 days .  i think last april it will reach 600 and next month it will reach 700
I believe that the value of ethereum will hit into 1000$ in this summer and thinking on how much it will hit before the year end I believe in this coin because of the good potential of it and specially the uses of the ethereum and it is a big help to many ICO to register their token and to have a value there is a lot of good news that you can watch or read.
Or even more. We know that ATH of ethereum was $1200 and it looks like $1000 becomes so easy consider about ATH of ethereum was over $1200. More countries are supporting law suit against big companies regarding advertisement banned. More and more icos will have used ethereum as the main pegged platform and it looks so good.
2084  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Decentralized Exchange vs. Centralized Exchange on: April 15, 2018, 08:55:42 AM
In Decentralized Exchange, user can control their own fund. It is fast, effective and anonymous with no personal documents required to apply.
It has higher security because it will prevent hacking and downtime. However, its not for beginners because its not easy to use. And ICO investors treat it as dumping area of coins when it is first listed in a decentralized exchanges. (IDEX, EtherDelta, etc.) That is the reason why some ICO developers locked the tokens before listing in centralized exchange to prevent that from happening.

Centralized exchange means it is centralized. It's easy to use and accessible. (Binance, Coinbase, etc.) However, when you use centralized exchanges you always have a big risk for your funds because of hacking attacks. And a lot of people lost their cryptocurrencies and bitcoins due to this.

Which would you choose?




I could not think the hacking case becomes the main concern need to be considered in the centralized exchange site. The real problem is the centralized exchange sites are controlling your amount and it can change the rules anytime and they can freeze your amount.

DEX will always become the best choice to give more control over your own amount.
2085  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: investing more than 10k worth it? on: April 15, 2018, 08:53:05 AM
is it a gambling habit that you invest more than 10k? most people that are into crypto are working and taking classes at the same time. only to take loans for school to put into crypto. should you invest more than 10-30k dollars worth of crypto? back then people are investing only 1,000 to 5,000 into bitcoin. how serious is crypto. back than i hear people opening 2nd loans from their homes. but now it has quiet down a bit.
No, but it is almost the same as gambling in my opinion but that's a little bit different in my opinion. To invest in the crypto with amounts of loans and that looks so bad in my opinion. because you have needed to pay your loan and crypto based on the speculation and it can't be predicted and that's never become a good thing to do.
2086  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum at the moment on: April 11, 2018, 04:17:16 PM
What is to blame for the collapse of Ethereum prices in just three months, following its upsurge to nearly $1,400?
Underlisted are what I thought
1, regulation. 2, The exchanges and 3, Mining profitability:  The price of Ethereum is governed not only through speculative actions, but also by mining profitability
But the important thing is about the regulation because all if icos are getting threatened by the law from the governments. It looks like the condition is conducive right now.

How more and more countries become ico friendly countries.

Exchange can't be considered as a part of the main reasons.

About mining profitability, only the ethereum core developer can fix this problem and make it less and less profitable to avoid inflation.
2087  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fraud by smart contract [ SCAM SCAM ] on: April 11, 2018, 04:11:08 PM
Dear all member .
   Current appear fraud by smart contract at the market cryptocurrency, and my is it's victim, so I want to alert to all cryptocurrency member to avoid it.
  I has already received  like bellow :
*****Hello! I will help you to get 75 000 ICX tokens
 
Look at this wallet and log in with your private key
0xA8015DF1F65E1f53D491dC1ED35013031ad25034 ETH
 
PRIVATE KEY of this wallet (ATTENTION! do not transfer your eth to this wallet, your money will be stolen, only I can help you with the withdrawal of ICX to your ETH wallet!)
668a369e87c01da5bfca9851e6ee86d760e17ee7912d77b7dffe8e0cdf63bcb5
 
Send me 5 ETH and I will unlock tokens ICX for you and help bring eth wallet to you
My ETH for payment
0x8e40cAC7F4e5FA4ac81e1127b92C3C8b43501965
 
Write on my mail (criptoman194@gmail.com) after sending eth using your TxHash
 
Thanks. *****

   As you can see , they also give to me PRIVATE KEY of  wallet and actually I can open this wallet , BUT THIS IS SCAM, this is a ETH wallet based on SMART CONTRACT " IF YOU SEND TO THIS WALLET ETH IT'S Automatic transfer ETH balance to other ETH wallte.
   They have scammed 391 ETH until now and you can see on the picture bellow :

 So all member  be wary of it .
It looks like a contract address, the only possible thing to do that through contract address. i have thought about the method will be similar if an ico tried to raised the funds from the investors and basically they are sending ethereum to the contract address and it will be automatically sent to the another ethereum address that has been linked to the contract address.
2088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: TA on Eth, this is interesting, thoughts? on: April 10, 2018, 11:47:04 PM
https://www.coindesk.com/below-400-death-cross-hits-ether-but-damage-may-be-done/

Price speculations and TA put together on Ethereum. Do you agree?
I agree, But it looks like all of the trend still depend on the bitcoin at the end of article said another bearish could happen if there will be btc sell of and that can give impact to the ethereum.
How this thing become true when you are seeing the latest chart about how bitcoin gets a little pump and dump in every period.
2089  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Legit ICOs that USA citizens can participate in now and in the future? on: April 10, 2018, 11:42:23 PM
It would be much appreciated if you guys could recommend any legit ICOs that a US citizen could participate in now and in the future. Seems  like I missed out on a few recently because they were restricted to people from the US.

Is there a way around the ICO country restrictions?  I've read about using a VPN, but what about KYC?  Is the only way to get someone from another country?  Or does the US not really care

Thanks!
As per SEC announcement and it would be so risky to participate in the icos, I just know about beetoken but it looks like the crowdsale already passed. KYC to make sure you are not from US and able to participate in the ICO.

It may better just waiting for exchange site and then you can buy it.
2090  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: when is safe to sell my alts? on: April 08, 2018, 03:52:26 PM
Hi all i have a lot of altcoins i invested before the bloody days and now most of then are down lik 50%. Should i sell them with no profit but also no loss or shold i keep them a little more to make profit? what would you do?
You should wait until you will get less on your loss. It will become the right time if you will be deciding to sell your investment. If you are selling it at bottom and after that the price of altcoin will be going up and there is no way for you to recover your loss again. You should not sell them all until it gets recovered on its price at least to minimize you lose.
2091  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Nexo ICO this month on: April 08, 2018, 03:30:29 PM
I saw and was interested about the ico but the minimum investment was just too high.There are many lending coins out there .How does Nexo Stand different from those ico?
Basically NEXO was running in the same way with the majority of the lending coins. But with a lot of people are hyping nexo and that makes a lot of people are interested to join in the crowdsale.
But honestly it was offering an interesting ability of the token. you can earn dividend and at the same time the token can be used as utility token.
2092  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Staking or Mining? on: April 08, 2018, 02:59:32 PM
I believe that mining has grown to an extremely industrial scale, requiring huge investments at the start and a long payback period.

Do you think staking/masternodes will reach that scale?
Masternodes will reach that scale, just like dash coin and that gives requirement to the everyone interested to become the masternode to have at least 1000 dash coin. It looks like the majority of profit from staking and masternode method has been dedicated to the whales. If the requirements to become masternode will become more and more difficult and it will reach that level.
2093  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Staking or Mining? on: April 06, 2018, 04:32:28 AM
In my personal ideal, staking will cost you money to buy those coins and that could be risky if the market is falling down. But with mining, you can actually sell all the hardwares if the market is fallen and the price of hardwares only affects a little bit not like holding coins when you're doing the "Stacking" method.
But that depends on how much power you can produce through your mining rigs, it may better if do any calculation through cryptocompare calculator to get how profit for your mining activities.
it looks like a new miners are needed so many mining rigs to get decent power to produce the profit anytime.
2094  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to Know if Token will be strong in Long-term? on: April 06, 2018, 04:29:52 AM
What factors tell you if an Altcoin or new Token will grow in the LONG-term?

How do you know if a token will be worth money when speculation and high exchange volume trading is not pushing the price up? When people calm down on the crypto exchanges, what tokens/altcoins will survive? How do you know?
The developer can deliver its promise to the investors by complete every roadmap at the time. That's the primary factor in determining the token that will promote growth for long-term.

That means if there are more demands on the token. It will attract more and more asap.

I guess altcoin that developing the future blockchain infrastructure like ether, and another platform that can attract the more demand to use its platform will survive.
2095  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NEO EXCHANGE ICO: Compare nex with switcheo (first multichain Decentralized ) on: April 06, 2018, 04:26:37 AM
2 exchange coin of NEO that i want to say is: NEX and SWITCHEO
NEX: ico in april with very hype, do they have good product on Q3, 2018 ?
Website: neonexchange.org
SWITCHEO (SWH): Ico have mainet, is listed on Gate.io, but now have price same with ico price because still have bug on their exchange.
Website: https://switcheo.exchange/
Switcheo  i the first multichain Decentralized Exchange (DEX)_ platform for NEP-5 token trades built on the NEO platform.

Hi guys, do you think NEX or SWITCHEO is better than ?
I don't know what was the usefulness by owned SWH token but in the neonexchange and you will be able to claim your fees that will have distributed by the neon exchange platform to all of the neon stake holders which is really fair for everyone because it gives an advantages by owned more neon token.
Neon may become a winner in this comparison.
2096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Reward to the bounty hunter with ETH, whether to reduce the dumping price ico? on: April 05, 2018, 09:59:48 AM
What if bounty payments are not paid with the token or coins they are promoting, but are paid by ETH for example. Will it prevent or reduce the price of the token ico to dump?

It seems good, XUC was changing the payment method for the bounty participants by replace the token payment with ethereum payment and This is the result of that
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/exchange-union/
The price of XUC still above the ico price and that doesn't give a lot of reaction to the market.
This should become another alternative to the developer too, just my 2 cents.
2097  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Does Bitcoin price affect ICOs on: April 05, 2018, 06:04:12 AM
It effects all crypto because it is essentially the crypto reserve currency. When there is a substantial rise all coins also seem to rise as well.
The real reason is the ethereum fiat price is pegged with bitcoin. Ethereum goes down if the bitcoin gets decrease on its dollar value. Because the majority of crypto has been used the bitcoin to be a floor price for the majority of altcoins in this time. That means anything that happens with bitcoina and that gives impact to the all ot cryptcurrency except tether.
2098  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum classic (ETC) on: April 01, 2018, 03:01:40 PM
I think the ethereum classic is go 50$ end of this mounth if bitcoin go up again,I am holding until 150$ this year
We are in another month, and your prediction was failed regarding the result of ethereum classic's price. It looks like this just another random speculation without nothing can be proven.


I believe it can still go up, but not this month. It still has a price movement that's like following the price movement of its parent. Well for those of you who invest in this coin, it may still take the same time with investing in Btc/Eth.
It only follows the majority of a trend in the cryptocurrency. You can see the majority of coins are in the red zone right now. ETC is different with ethereum because it has no purpose at all.
2099  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are we repeating the 2014 BTC crash??? on: April 01, 2018, 02:53:32 PM
You can compare the crash of 2014 and the correction right now. The market cap has hugely increased since then. This is just normal (and probably healthy) price correction for an asset. It also prove that Bitcoin and generally crypto is not in a bubble. I don't say that the price can reach its peak like in the end of 2017 but market will soon recover

What is your definition of correction vs crash?

This is definitely a crash but I agree that recovery will start soon.  Before that, we might see the bottom today (if not tomorrow).
There is no a lot of difference between correction and crash, but that's only different from the phrase of the word.

It doesn't matter how people called it as. But we are at another downtrend again. The bottom will be appearing as soon as possible; It takes a short time to get another bump still after that.

There is a lot of tax news to the crypto right now.
2100  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The sky is falling, what is everyone doing... on: March 31, 2018, 12:17:12 PM
It looks like the crypto market is in a free fall.  Btc around 7k, eth under $400, ltc around $100, alt coins are generally down significantly.  So what is everyone doing?  Go all in and buy more?  Sell and get out while you can?  Hodl and trust the process? 
Get out while you can? Man before investing to cryptocurrencies you should learn on how volatile they are. It's not a one day millionaire investment where you can live happily ever after. This is a real market where there are whales, speculators, FUDs and everything that are playing to affect the market prices and charts as well. Buy more if you can but if you can't the pain, hold.
The majority of new players are lack of knowledge about crypto. Crypto is a place for those are looking for a new way to invest into the future development progress of the technology. Like you said it's not a market when people are investing it and tomorrow he gets doubled. It looks like we are in the green candle again and it looks good to see if we will see a big bullish again at the end of this year. HODL!!!
