2341  Economy / Economics / Re: Why everyone learn from Warren Buffett? on: May 15, 2019, 08:23:35 PM
That's strange I am totally in the opposite position on where you are right now. If we are talking about the stock market then Warren Buffet's words about value investing is on point just so in any books about value investing I have read so far its really hard to blame the books especially when they are only talking about their own strategy on how to identify undervalued assets and how to make money from them, mostly the only ones to blame here are the readers itself as they fail to identify what the authors are talking about. While sometimes even if they pick the right stock or asset they tend to lose patience and give up just before it stars climbing upwards. If you are part of the latter group I am talking about then maybe the crypto market is really for you since its a more fast moving market as its a volatile one.
2342  Economy / Exchanges / Re: GDAX put my deposit on hold... on: May 15, 2019, 07:05:59 PM
But I can't even purchase crypto with the pending funds, as they haven't been credited into my account. My balance is still £0.00
If they'd let me buy bitcoin but not withdraw it - that'd be fine by me.
But they're just sitting on my money..
I think the term "funds on hold" should be pretty understandable by now it wouldn't even be in hold if you still have full access with the funds you have deposited. To be perfectly clear for you it's not on Coinbase's end on the reason why your funds are still pending to your account. It's your bank's fault for the reason of the delay and it may take up to 5 days before it will be cleared on their end.
2343  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-05-15] Binance Resumes Normal Operations With A $1.3M BNB Giveaway on: May 15, 2019, 03:19:14 PM
With how the crypto market moved during the past week it would be no wonder if Binance had somehow profited from their current holdings during the bull run. That 40 million dollars that was stolen could easily be recovered with the bull run they have, another proof of that is them having a million dollar giveaway with their own coin. But is a giveaway really what users are looking for? I guess not because what they really want to see is them giving an assurance that a hack won't ever happen again and that their capital is safe within their platform.
2344  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Looking for Project Designer + Website Builder on: May 15, 2019, 02:24:25 PM
By now you have seen a lot of untrusted newbies interested in designing your website but I strongly disapproved of doing transactions with them solely because they don't have any history of trades in the forum it would be best if you will just find a freelance site designer in upwork, cryptogrind, and xbtfreelancers that have freelancers ready to accept cryptocurrencies as a mode of payments. Aside from that you will see their history and previous work and you will get a general idea on what you will get with your money.
2345  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: The Urgency for Scammer Blacklist on: May 15, 2019, 01:19:26 PM
This blacklist wouldn't even be effective at all when the scammers themselves won't be caught. Remember majority of all crypto crimes are done online and as long as the scammer is not behind bars a blacklist on his name eon't stop him from scamming people. He could easily create a new fake identity just to scam people again and again. Instead of a blacklist we need to urge our own governments to have their own legal framework to protects its citizens from potential scams. If no one is getting fooled by them than there will be less and less scammers trying to scam us.
2346  Other / Meta / Re: Vod is abusing his merit source position to give 50 merit to his supporters on: May 14, 2019, 08:51:10 PM
I would rather see a merit source plunging their merits to a lot of people than a merit source who does not maximize their merit allocation. I don't even know why being generous is a problem here since at first all we yapping about is there isn't enough merits being circulated in the forum now we are complaining about merit sources being to generous with what they are sending. We shouldn't be too suspicious everytime we see an abnormal amount being sent by a merit source, they won't even be a merit source without theymos' approval in the first place.
2347  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin's price break 5700 USD, is this uptrend or bulltrap? on: May 14, 2019, 07:47:22 PM
The day that BTC has broken the 6,000$ and the 7,000$ key resistances  only show that this ain't a bull trap but a bullish reversal already the only thing out of the way is how will this up trend hold for how long? In my honest opinion BTC has been moving up really fast compared to the ideal scenario I was lookinv for whoch is a steady up trend. Fast movements like this tends to take a lot of market confidence thus making another bearish reversal inevitable. I won't expect that this up trend will attempt to go another ATH since BTC is acting like it was in 2017 where aggressive pumps lead to scary falls.
2348  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for a decent crypto blog on: May 14, 2019, 07:08:35 PM
Just go in reddit and look for the subreddit pages for r/Bitcoin or r/Cryptocurrency you will see a lot of users who are postings news, opinions, and insights on their own. Aside from that you also get a healthy discussion with other redditors. I always get my daily updates in this pages as the discussion in the community really helps on giving me my own insight on certain matters. Aside from the subreddits I have mention there are some Altcoins who have reddit pages on their own just try searching them in Google.
2349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: May 14, 2019, 06:28:54 PM
Wtf is this horse sh*t?  The CL is so damn hard to win cos of its format.  It's a tourney format played with two matches each and you're out if you lose the aggregate or thru penalites if tied in aggregate.  Luck becomes more of a factor.  Couple that with playing the best in Europe and the EPL's more hectic schedule and you got a much harder time to win it imho.

It's already amazing there are two EPL clubs that survived and went to the final.
Not all tied matches leads to a penalty shooutout, you also need to factor in that away goals have a way to determine on whose leading in the aggregate. But I do have to agree with you that luck has some kind of factor in the Champions League that is why you see a lot of underdogs and Football clubs we don't even know defeat and upset top tier teams in Europe. By that I think the matches are made so that teams have an even chances to reach the final and it has been proven by a lot of underdogs in the past.
2350  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: As the price rises so should our sense of security rise on: May 14, 2019, 04:34:17 PM
I remembered back then during the last bull run that lead as to a new ath crime related activities also increase relatively since it also got their attention as well, I wouldn't be surprise if that is the case now since I know it would only attract more criminals who have bad intentions in the industry. From HYIP websits to Phishing sites we all must be careful on what we do in the web because anyone of us can literally be a victim of them. Just by not be being careless and observative on what you do online could really on your protection, do not get carried away on websites with free downloads and other offers since they are the main culprits on spyware in your system.
2351  Economy / Economics / Re: Italy just figured out that the country doesn't fully control its gold on: May 13, 2019, 08:33:16 PM
Its one of the biggest prices to pay for being part of the European Union, the EU knowing that one country's action can trigger a ripple effect within Europe can have this kind of power in order to prevent further damage. If Italy has move their gold independently without their authority various things could happen and other countries part of the EU might not like it. I do feel that we are just taking the words too literally here and Italy might have some control with their own gold in some given situations.
2352  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If you think so please stop! on: May 13, 2019, 07:51:24 PM
I think the philosophy "Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful" still applies in our situation and they are right to say that its time to be greedy in holding what we have endured so far. It might not be good sounding for us but they really don't have the right to say when should we sell what we have bough independently in the first place. If we missed our opportunity because we didn't sell than its our fault but if we missed our opportunity because we listened to them then its still our fault because we have followed them. What I am trying to say is our position is owned by us and we have the right to do decide anything for it.
2353  Economy / Reputation / Re: Does stealing efforts = scam ? need opinion on: May 13, 2019, 07:03:21 PM
If we look at how obligations and contracts works then they absolutely have violated their own terms by changing the requirements as soon as the bounty ended. The point is the bounty hunters have obviously done their part and expected for a payment in exchange for their efforts they aren't aware of this additional requirements while the campaign is ongoing and the bounty manager pretty soon afterwards have made this requirement. Surely this is some kind of trap for bounty hunters are forced to do in order to get the payments they should have received with no questions ask.
2354  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-5-13] Bitcoins for Frappuccino: Will Starbucks’ Crypto Endeavours Pave the on: May 13, 2019, 05:21:48 PM
The more probable approach that Starbucks will do is they'll accept Bitcoin payments in order to load up your Starbucks card which is being done via Fiat currencies or Debit Card. This might be the likely way they "accept" Bitcoin payments without restructuring  their current payment setup with their Starbucks cards which a lot of people are mostly using in their transactions, plus regular customers know that they do receive some more rewards when they are using their cards to pay their orders.
2355  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Haven't you thought about it? See for more on: May 13, 2019, 04:21:31 PM
Wouldn't this be a useless idea? People pawning their items wants real time cash on hand. If they transact online to pawn their items for BTC then the transaction would be longer since they still need to ship the item to to the pawnshop in order for it to be appraise and be given an offer which would be a longer discussion if prices aren't reached compared to just visiting a local pawnshop near you. We do have BTC loans online and this has been more successful since you don't need to give anything aside from other collateral not relating to jewelries or other valuables.
2356  Other / Meta / Re: Ban evasion - rchstr on: May 13, 2019, 03:22:57 PM
I'm with you on this one, I think that the temporary red tag was appropriate to prevent the bad evader from joining in any campaign in the meantime since his alleged first account, basesaw, might probably be banned from plagiarism. I don't even know why the tag is being debated on this one even if there are no transactions involve we all know plagiarism is still a crime and if the main account is banned already this is a good way to prevent any of their accounts on milking more money from the forum.

P.S.

Change your tag remarks on basesaw''s account.

2357  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will be the next bubble's hook? on: May 13, 2019, 02:15:49 PM
With countries following up hard on their legal framework for their crypto regulation I suspect that some of this countries have the idea of creating their own government-based cryptocurrencies like what Venezuela did. I know that countries that are having extreme prohibitions on cryptocurrencies like China and India have hinted in the past on issuing their own local based cryptocurrency based on their fiat which I think will be a bad turn for them considering what had happen to Venezuela in the past.
2358  Economy / Speculation / Re: Little dip in bitcoin market, will it be recovered reach 10k on: May 12, 2019, 11:25:15 PM
If you are satisfied with your gains then I don't think you should be waiting for any more chances to cashing out. Remember sudden fast movements like this one are not seen as a long term continuous upward trend they are just price jumps normally seen for assets trying to go bullish. The 100$ you have seen now just became 700-800$ on some exchanges showing you proof that this ain't time to sort out opinions in the internet as well as question every decision you want to make.
2359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao vs Keith Thurman on July 20 on: May 12, 2019, 09:49:10 PM
So many young blood calling out Manny Pacquiao everytime they win a fight they always think that they can take out the veteran just because he is old. But if we are speaking out Prime Manny here all of their mouths will be silent about this because they knew they wouldn't stand a chance against him. That is why we witnessed Pacman to move up 7 divisions just to find a match for him since every division he left are no cotenders willing to fight him, that's the only truth and 8 devisions titles speak for itself.
2360  Economy / Economics / Re: Regulation of Cryptocurrency Around the World on: May 09, 2019, 08:41:57 PM
When I see that China and Indonesia are part of the countries who says Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies are illegal I instantly know that this map is inaccurate. You see this os what you get when you are basing your information based on Wikipedia or from any other misleading news out there. China has been open in cryptocurrencies for a long time noew they even have two popular exchanges namely Huobit and OKEX whoch has one of the top daily traded volumes they even have their own misleading crypto ratings up for discussion. Indonesia on the other hand have classofied cryptocurrencies as a commodity and therefore can now be traded like stocks in their country.
