I'm not really into analyzing historical prices or prices that have already happened in the past since they will always end up accurate because you aren't really predicting anything. Its like how news websites so the reason why BTC have moved after it had already happened, they'll try to connect every news they deemed worthy of connectin with the price movement. With your "miner's are buying BTC rather than creating them" analysis shows the same thing as what news sites are showing.
2242  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Chinese Crypto Trader Committed Suicide ( lesson for all crypto traders ) on: June 13, 2019, 06:20:26 PM
The lesson really here is never trader what you can afford to lose, this man knowing that he be buried in debt did what he think he can only do in order to escape that from happening. I know the pay off from a leverage trade is big but the risk is also bigger its your typical high risk high reward scenario but the problem here is he is not trading with his own money which makes the trade far more riskier. Sad that he also brought other people down with him you cannot really believe all the people you meet nowadays.

After Mendel to Real Madrid we have a new Rumors 25/30 M€ for Marcelo to Juventus -> probably Cancelo will be sold to X for 55/60 M€
This will be a reunion for Cristiano Ronaldo if these rumors are true, with the arrival of Marcelo to Juventus I think Alex Sandro will be threatened to only become a Juventus reserve player because the new coach might prefer Marcelo especially if he plays at UCL.

I don't think players in Juventus have a problem in sharing with minutes with the other players. Their players like Betancur and Emre Can are comfortable on being bench with other players as they always trust Allegri on what's best for them. On Marcelo coming in Juventus I think it will only be possible if Juventus has a big transfer budget which we don't know yet, they might be selling or swapping another player just to make this happen if the budget isn't enough.
2244  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: A bitcoin debit card comparison site that actually compares bitcoin debit cards on: June 13, 2019, 01:37:50 PM
The website still needs a lot of work. The way you showed information for the debit cards is really hard for me to make a comparison cards are shown on a paragraph style piece per card which forces users to go up and down. You must put all cards in on table for it to be easily compared to one another. Another thing is that I notice is the website is slow in my mobile device, it takes time for pages and sections to load is there by any chance your site is not mobile friendly?
2245  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: EU Warns Malta of the Dangers of Ignoring Money Laundering on: June 12, 2019, 09:17:09 PM
Wish they could say the same thing for Swiss and Cayman Islands bank  accounts which have been used by big time criminals as part of their money laundering process. If they want money laundering to stop they should also step up their game for this banks in order for this criminal activity to stop. Just by putting their attention all in crypto first won't solve the problem, I just don't think that its efficient for them to focus on a small industry like ours at first.
2246  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Coinshares research: 74% of Bitcoin mining is powered by renewable energy on: June 12, 2019, 08:10:39 PM
Would like to see this go viral until it spreads into the mass media, I doubt that the skeptics who stated that "Crypt mining consumes more energy to work" will dodge a bullet if they have been asked with this fact. The more important thing about this is how accurate the 74% of renewable sources would be, because I cannot really see any kind of report backing it up. The whitepaper itself doesn't show any reference for that number so its hardly believable on my end especially when I'm seeing news about Chinese miners are moving out of their country due to electricity cost.
2247  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR BEGINNERS AND NEWBIES. on: June 12, 2019, 07:21:31 PM
I didn´t like this new system very much....

A yellow color like this looks much more like a neutral trust than a negative trust. This Color should be bold red.

Just like what theymos has said the old trust system will only be in favor of the old cases but if you think that the scammer is worthy to have a banner warning then that user can be flag with the new system which will give that scammer a "Warning: trade with extreme caution" sign on their accounts, I think this will be more effect compared to seeing -9999 or something which newbies won't understand entirely at first.
2248  Economy / Economics / Re: How Will FB Coin/JPM Coin Impact the Cryptocurrency Ecosystem? on: June 12, 2019, 06:36:50 PM
JPM coin and Facebook's cryptocurrency doesn't even cater the same people in the market. JPM coin is only used within their internal transactions of dong business while FB's crypto will only be used within their family of application, so if you are thinking that it will somehow affect the market demands and market dominance from existing cryptocurrencies available in the crypto exchanges think again, the cryptocurrencies this companies created are not meant to be traded in any exchange but to be used within their system.
2249  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-06-11]Philippines’ Central Bank Will Continue to Closely Monitor Crypto, C on: June 11, 2019, 08:14:26 PM
With the memes I have seen in social media its funny too say that the people are right that they created an issue after they became somehow a crypto-friendly country. It's like they are forcing themselves to go back a few steps from where they started. It's really funny because they didn't observe this precautionary measures or even planned to execute one before crypto related investments started pouring in the country. I might be wrong and the government actially saw a increase of scams happening in the country that is why they are doing this but nonetheless they should have did this in the first place.
2250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: June 11, 2019, 04:27:56 PM
I wish GSW just let the game go and lose the ring but keep Durant, that would have been a better trade off for them to be honest with you. Now they are without Durant until 2020 and they still have 2 more games left to play which they will play without Durant, is there a chance they get the cup? Sure but I would wager there is a bigger chance Raptors becoming champions this year and the result will be GSW with no cup plus no Durant until 2020. It was a bad decision to rush him back to the game and they were idiots to test him so early into his injury.

I agree it's a gamble they shouldn't even made, they risked the future of a gifted player just for another shot at getting another ring. Probably its one of the dumbest decisions management could ever make, the first injury on Durant didn't look good and still they rushed things for him. Plus the raptors fans didn't help the situation cheering for an injury is something we wouldn't want to see even if its from an opponent, a truly disgusting act done by them.
2251  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bulls Facing Uphill Task on: June 11, 2019, 03:30:19 PM
I see it more as a consolidation stage rather than BTC having problems going back up above. Remember we were above the 9,000$ before it got down back to 8,000$ so I wouldn't say that BTC is having a hard time to go back up above. I say that BTC is consolidating again because of the lack of price action together with the volume not indicating any signs of either bullishness or bearishness so this time on inactivity might really just be a consolidation on a higher level.
2252  Other / Meta / Re: A Request For The Other Merit Sources on: June 11, 2019, 02:12:57 PM
Maybe another solution for that local board is to have another merit source for you. This might be a better solution since you are guaranteed that the merit source will only be more focus on that board. The only problem about this is of course the application process they will have to go through and barely theymos doesn't really add new merit sources in the forum anymore.
2253  Economy / Speculation / Re: timing the market on: June 10, 2019, 08:09:23 PM
Occasionally they are right, but even then, they get out too early and rarely exploit the true potential of their position, typically exiting without any understanding of return on risk.

As long as your exit or entry is part of your plan then I wouldn't call it a mistake on the trader's part. Even if they missed the "true potential" of their position I wouldn't call it a missed opportunity as I just followed my plan and their are no assurances if I waited for too long on what will happen with my position. It's just like a game of what ifs and the favor didn't go into your part but that is how the market goes you cannot really get what you want but as long as you are satisfied and followed your trade then I cannot really call it a bad move.
2254  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Conflicts of my startup venture on: June 10, 2019, 07:19:43 PM
With a lending platform as your idea you may need to have more time to prepare for your plan as your post might need a little more sales pitch for you to attract a co-founder for your business. Plus you are involving their money which means they are the ones who will technically lend their money for your business. Other thing to put into consideration is with financial services like this you must be fully registered as a business before you operate as one, KYC will definitely be needed for your customers before they borrow from you.
2255  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: KYC is it mandatory for security tokens ? on: June 10, 2019, 06:32:18 PM
KYC is absolutely mandatory and required by law for all sorts of securities around the world.

A company is required by law to always know all of its shareholders.

 This of course includes security tokens.

I second that, STO is very much different that ICO we can consider this as a safe way to invest because they are compliant and they are regulated check this article it has all the answer to all your question
https://hackernoon.com/know-your-customer-kyc-regulations-for-stos-43c55132f196

Even normal ICOs requires KYC, if they want to launch their token sale locally in a country that requires KYC they will be ordered to do so in order for them to make the ICO happen. STOs on the other hand are much more on a stricter level since they act mostly like shares of a company, it will be like a stock for the investors that is why regulations for STOs are much more heavily enforced.
2256  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATMs in Vancouver To Be Banned? on: June 10, 2019, 03:20:21 PM
The only way that Bitcoin/Crypto ATMs can be used as money laundering when literally anyone can create their own crypto atm business without the authorities knowledge. If the crypto atm business is regulated and undergoes to the same procedure as what amy Canadian company goes then I don't think they need to worry at all about money laundering since they can monitor everything from that point. The local government might just be overthinking on this one, it would really be a bad thing to see that a crypto-friendly country will change their views at this point.
2257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC procedure in online casinos does more good than bad or the other way around? on: June 09, 2019, 09:04:42 PM
For some people who pro with KYC
It's nothing to worry about as long as it keep people's identity safe.
Also it's prevent we as gambler to cheat etc

For who contra with KYC
It's dangerous to give personal identity to other platform, some people just want to gambler without identity

So my conclusion, the gambler owner must think globally before decide to use KYC

It's really not up for them to decide on whether or not they'll be implementing KYC in their platform. Gambling sites are not immune to the government's authority and they can track what's coming and going inside their gambling site the KYC requirement for them is mostly used in AML procedures in which they need to be always prepared just in case the authorities comes knocking in their doors. They just don't want to be link in any kind of money laundering operations happening in their platform and I think it is fair enough for them to ask who their users are.
2258  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-06-09] G20 Starts Crypto Discussions - A Look at Global Standards on: June 09, 2019, 07:58:12 PM
At the end crypto users who favor anonymity with the use of cryptocurrencies won't be happy with the news. It's the way how these industry will move forward towards mass adaption. Privacy and anonymity is something we need to sacrifice for the rest of the governments to accept it together with other investment vehicles already in existences. Plus it will only be fair for this existing markets to see that the crypto industry has more transparency when it comes to profiling their users, all markets even the FOREX has KYC requirements issues by the government.
2259  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Steps to check potential phising links on: June 09, 2019, 06:50:45 PM
Woah these are very helpful actually I dont know about that second one "pointing the cursor" and you will see the link on the lower left corner.  Grin
Knowing the URL link if it is a phishing site or not is just one of the first steps in identifying if it is one but surely it isn't enough. Some phishing links really do have a carbon copy of the real website and they also get a convincing domain name (if you aren't familiar with their real domain of the website) to come with it so really being an observant people and looking at security patches and logos is your only way of telling if its a phishing website or not.
2260  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Your First Stop Loss on: June 09, 2019, 06:01:33 PM
Stop loss doesn't need to be viewed that way, its a trading strategy that has been used for people admitting that their trading plan was wrong and that stopping their losses is their only way to minimize their loss. Just think of it this way if you haven't triggered that stop loss where will you be at now? I'm sure if it goes down you'll be happy but if it goes up I know that you'll be sad, but the thing is you have stick to your trading plan and that is the best thing a trader could do. Most of the losses has been created by traders not sticking to their plan.
