First of all its not suggested to buy something without an escrow if you dont prefer exchanges. But I dont see any wrong thing in joining an exchange and sell or buy crypto because there are many exchanges who doesnt ask for KYC. Another thing I would suggest is that be cautious while buying altcoins, better to keep most of your portfolio in BTC.

I think its a great time for digital payments applications and companies. I dont know how Malasian government stands towards crypto but if there is someone who can implement a simple transnational exchange with the support of national bank then it will be a big boom for crypto community. 

I have less hope on Litecoin, though I hold a little amount in litecoin but it looks like the team is not up to the margin in developing and implementing new things. There was a huge hype in the early days of LTC but with BTC fall, litecoin couldnt withstand.

Philippines is already a troubled place with all the fights between drug lords, terrorists and government people, there is no doubt that lots of these negative people are using crypto to launder there money in. Governments may try regulate with serious measures in order to stop the activities. Its a serious concern which should be discussed in order to grow as a community.

Obviously its affecting a whole community and newbie investor's first impression will get negative and they will be against entire crypto for this reason. People have become cautious now and most of them wont invest in these new, no plan projects but still we need some kind of system where we can determine whether a project is scam or not.

There are many ways for introducing crypto to newbies. The most effective one as far as I have experienced is to explain them how dollar can be manipulated or their own currency is being manipulated by their governments. Many of the newbies understood and felt the need to change into crypto.

There are many altcoins which have a purpose in their implementation of the coin in real world. If there is a purpose and usecases then there is a future for that altcoin. There are some coins which already implemented their projects and started mainnet, praying to see more real world implementation.

Bitcoin fluctuation is not letting any altcoin to be on the upward trend right now. Even the most potential coins are not holding up to their prices and falling when the dominance is increased. I feel this is a good opportunity to buy coins which have a reward on staking and put them on passive income.

Holiday season or whatever but I dont think anyone will sell their BTC at these prices. Everyone who is holding BTC for a significant amount of time know that these are the manipulative dumps and will not sell their BTC at these prices. Clearly these are either hackers or whales.

Exactly my feeling, I wish I would have known this sooner as I was holding my waves from long time and would have earned Waves without doing anything.
I wonder why other projects dont think of this to keep the holders rewarded..

If you have only these two options then I would definitely go with Kucoin because the reputation of Hitbtc is not that good and volume is also less compared to Kucoin. Its better to take out all your coins from HitBtc because they cant be stable.

In my early days, I used to think that Bitcoin will reach more than 50k$ and I was sure that it will reach there soon so 1 Bitcoin was enough to have. I worked and got my payments in Bitcoin and started accumulating but over the time I had to sell my BTC for my spending. Still I feel 1 Bitcoin should be held and rest can be used for spending.

Waves have come up with a new application, i.e. Waves Exchange, where leasing is easier than ever. I think its a good time to lease your Waves now and get some stable income as leasing is safe and you dont have to send your waves anywhere. What is your opinion about this guys.? Does anyone have leased there waves..?

We need more politicians like Swamy, he is the front runner in the parliament as I have seen and may influence the government in taking back its stand against crypto usage. Also Supreme Court should hear the arguments as soon as possible to resolve the bank transactions ban. We really need more supporters within the governments.

I think the prediction is good but I think the key level resistance for ETH is more than 170$ as we have seen lots of ups and downs at that point and also a key level to break if its start pumping from where it is right now.

Have you got investors for your project.? There are many investor groups who would like to listen to your project and think about its potential before investing, getting investors is a hard job to do, but if you got supportive people then they will stand by you for sure.

Why do you guys dont quit.? There is literally no one in this forum who will fall for this. Hyips are too old fashioned right now and you need to find better ways to scam.

Reading is the first step for successful trading, you need to know allot of things in order to make profit regularly in trading. Also people use different strategies as some are aggressive and try every experiment and some do long term holding. Also be careful of sudden pumps or dumps of Bitcoin as alts will go down whenever there is a fluctuation.

When you have come to conclusion then am afraid this is not a place where you hangout. People here believe and hope for a better future, technically as well as economically. Keep your negativity to yourself, if this as a crap then the world wouldnt have been this much supporting.

A poll would have been given a clear picture about the opinion of people, As far as I have seen the thread, ETH is most preferred and may have a great future if they start putting regulations on how the tokens will be created. Litecoin on the other hand is at a very low position and coming up from here is hard work.
