281  Economy / Speculation / Re: No bull market for 2019 on: April 21, 2019, 07:02:24 AM
Bitcoin bull run will just happen and we cannot predict it. We can just see it coming and we can follow the lead and trade some of it. I am still hoping for the bull run at the end of 2019 even it is not that close right now.
It is better not to expect too much as what we did last year.  Yes, bull run will come to us momentarily and nobody's exactly when. We are in that positive but never how much it shown to us, cause I may think that it won't be probably the same of last 2017 bull run.

theres nothing wrong if a person expects  . expecting for the price to rise is thier way to motivate them selve's  but they should keep in mind that a bull run wont easily come because a bull run is not an ordinary event  .  bull run is rare and once in a life time event  . as of know , the market is still looking healthy but no one knows if this can lead to a bull run or not  .  if ever the bear will occur , i think the price will be doubled compare to the last 2017 bull run based on the my own prediction /analysis .
282  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you making money in this bear market? on: April 20, 2019, 11:40:25 PM
I am now starting to make money in this bear market as the price of my investments are starting to go up and i am fully hoping for the best for my investments because it is one of my major source of income and i am happy that i took action when the market is really bearish because i got a lot of good deals for an investment.
 Well you took it wrong because making money means to buy at low price and hold until the price rises, never think about selling, in this bear market only those will make money who will buy at low price and hold till it recovers, so wait for right time to sell but now it is only time to hold with patience very soon market will give us good news.

you dont make money when you use your funds to buy a crypto but you dont also loose your money , you just convert it to crypto in the hopes of earning more interest in the future  .

 the reason why the person above you sells is becuase he already earn from his investment despite the bear market that we experience last time  but for us that are late buyers , the bear market wont be suitable to sell but its advisable to buy  more coins  because the market is now showing signs of recovery  .
283  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading without losses? on: April 20, 2019, 11:03:09 PM
If you are looking to trade without any losses then you may earn less profits among the other

First of all , trading without loosing is impossible because crypto trading is hard and unpredictable  . even if you say that your only buying bitcoin and other top coins , youl still be able to experience losses because their price can always go down most of the times  .

if you are smart trader then you have to minimize losses and try to trade as much as possible then only you can make more profits.

Minimizing loss will be hard even if you say that you are smart because being smart wont help you alot since you cannot still control the market on your own likings  . whales and other big time people are the ones that control it  .  all we can only do is to ride the waves and go with the flow
284  Economy / Speculation / Re: Realistic Predictions for Bitcoin? on: April 20, 2019, 12:39:58 PM
The most realistic prediction for Bitcoin is that nobody knows how the price might fluctuate in the future due to crypto market's extreme volatility.

that's not what you call a prediction if someone wont make a statement or post on how he calculate the upcoming price of bitcoin  . prediction means when someone is claiming that the price will end up like this or like that   .

It can go to 50k $ as many "experts" predicted already or it can go to less than 1000$ , as well.

50k usd is not a usual price anymore imho . i dont think that its a realistic prediction  but for example if they will say that the price of bitcoin in the next 50 years and up will be 50k usd i think im going to believe them because that is more believable due to the growing adoption  . lesser price prediction are more realistic than a verry expensive price prediction  .
285  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fun stuff to do with bitcoin? on: April 20, 2019, 11:29:59 AM
bitcoin is out of fun now, it became a real industry and it became real money, so no body wants to lose ...

but even before , bitcoin is already a serious business because it is a currency and an asset tool .  it has a value , so no one in thier right mind will use it for fun although you can literally use your bitcoin to play gambling  . other people find gambling an entertaining activity while others dont .

bitoin is becoming a value spot for crypto, it will be like gold, storage of value, it started as digital money but it cant be money because of limited supply hand high voladity,

bitcoin is a crypto and yes its the same as gold but wothout a physical form  . it is a digital money and it is actually a money even if its only existed online .  limited supply and being volatile is not a reason for bitcoin to not be treated as a money  .
286  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do you see cryptocurrency 10 years from now? on: April 19, 2019, 10:05:31 AM
I saw a thread that most currencies need 100 years to mature.

100 years ?  No i dont think so  .  its been over 10 years and alot of cryptos are now doing a good job  . i can safely say that they are already mature most especially bitcoin because bitcoin is already recognize by most countries and most people  .

Volatility will still be there but it will cost you less than going through the banking system.

Yes the volatile nature of cryptos wont be remove because that is what makes crypto unique and attractive  but when the demand is high , the price also rise and the transaction fees will be slightly expensive as well

In 10 years Bitcoin will hopefully be moving towards $1M Smiley

Its possible to some countries that has a high exchange rate ( usd to local currency )   but from others , no idont think that it will be equivalent to 1m usd   
287  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which strategy you apply in recent bullish market? on: April 19, 2019, 09:19:22 AM
Since I really don't know what strategy to pull out, I just hodl my bitcoin and yes I took profit when it jumped from 4k usd to 5k usd. Whenever I got bitcoins, I just hodl them for weeks-months because I think it's good to have a short term goal with bitcoin.

You don't just to think about the short term goal in bitcoin, but you should have the long term in bitcoin too because in the long term, bitcoin price rise higher than now. It is better if you have two plan for short term and long term so you can make a double profit while you can try to make a profit in every weeks or month. And when the bullish market comes, you can sell some bitcoin you have, then wait for another down moment to buy more bitcoin.

Hodling for more than a week up to a month is already considered as a long term investment imo because the real short term investment is verry simmilar to trading where you imediately sell your coins after you obtain them  . 

@r1a2y3m4 , what your doing right now is already a strategy  . yes , hodling is a strategy because its not easy to hodl .  you need to set your goal first if what is your target price and then you need to track the market if there was a significant change  on the value of cryptos .
288  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do those of you who were waiting for 2000s/1000s/<1000 feel now? Buying now? on: April 19, 2019, 05:37:42 AM

What is your strategy now that you watched the entire bottom go on by are missed it entirely?

Its never too late really.   There is a good reason why regular buying will often do better then people trying to time precisely.    
Missing the bottom or the other way round, missing the perfect sell at the peak top is actually a fallacy.   The peak and bottom is quite small in number volume wise and the majority of people are what forms the trend upwards and there is no negative is spotting and joining that trend.

I still think we are in a loop that will come around.    People are imagining it more simply then it probably will unfold as, to get past 6500 will like breaking down a wall.   We'll have to back up more then once to get through imo

there is no real bottom here in crypto  . the price can decline depending on the mood of the hodlers and whales therfore you cant say that the guy already missed the boat  . 2k , 1k and below may take more time to achieve again because the demand for cryptos are now also increasing the longer the days have passed therfor like what you said above , buying gradually from this price point will also be beneficial than waiting at the dip  .
289  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bulls need time on: April 19, 2019, 04:57:16 AM
Bitcoin is an in flattery commodity has it way of balancing the transactions in between and at that it price movement in always in a systematic form. Once it increase it most correct the chart and balance the transactions.


Btc is on the bull run and markets have picked up well and has crossed 5250$ now. It has being a good quarter start for this year and if things continue this way you can make the most out of it as rise will help people to make more money.

Very good start and hopefully we will also end good.
I'm happy with $6,000 by the end of April, and $10,000 by end of June, what do you say? I think I'm not being unrealistic here, we are due for this.

I don't think in the end of April we will see bitcoin $6000, also as you predict that in June bitcoin will be $10000, it looks strange. However time will decide what is going now, but about my prediction hopefully in the end of the year bitcoin will be $10000 to $12000.

All your predictions are seem to be realistic . i do believe that we can achieve 6kusd just before or after the april ends because right now the price is at 5000 k plus dollar   . it increase with small increments after an hour or two but it also drops a little after a day .  the op is right  that the bull run needs time but its okay because this can give us a window to prepare  .  i like the bull this way than compare to an unexpected bull that comes in  instantly  .
290  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TRON vs EOS on: April 19, 2019, 03:47:40 AM
I think it is very hard to decide which token has the best smart contract because there are a lot of things that should be mentioned. But I believe EOS is more perspective as a coin and within several years is going to be in top 3 cryptos.

If i should choose one, i would choose EOS. Tron is good coin and traded in many big exchanger, beside that the CEO is always active to marketing the project and the development. But in my opinion, EOS is game changer and market cap value will surpass ethereum

 I also go for eos because i knew eos a long time and i think eos is more mature than tron  because i see that alot of good projects on the past are all under the eos platform

. while tron is a new coin and its still young compared to eos .

Comparing tron vs eos , are i think not balanced at all . i believe eth is a more better contender to eos  . while tron can be compared to other alts .

however both coins are well known and will be a good addition to our existing portfolio
291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Cash jumps up!! on: April 19, 2019, 03:16:13 AM
What you see with the price of Bitcoin Cash, you will definitely think something extraordinary has happened. Namely the price rose very quickly $ 324. What is the underlying cause? Share your opinion in this event. Thanks for you all.
the jump was not very much higher it need to be much more higher tour to the previous value in the next development so the investors also been waiting to take a chance about selling and buying then only it need to be developed.
Not so high but it's a significant pump, that jump confirmed that we already reach the dip, and if people will believe on that, they will be
investing again and price will continue to rise as we enter in the bull market. Once the market fully change into bull, that's the time that we will see some big jumps.

The rise last 2017 is not small  and infact many people are shock when they witnessed that bitcoin cash pump 3x times higher than eth and it did actually de throne eth on the second spot .  all of us thought the bch will surpass btc but that didnt happen . the thrill does not end there because i believe that bch can do wonders again next time since this coin was backed by big time individuals   . they can manipulate bch whenever they want to   .
292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you ready to invest now? on: April 19, 2019, 02:42:40 AM
I am ready, I am not waiting for the best opportunity because I know that if I try to wait for the best time when to invest, I will never invest.
Maybe, you should think about it. Waiting all the time is not the best strategy.

We never know when the right time to invest. I think anytime is good time for investing in cryptocurrency as long we choose a legit one. Crypto have a good future and its technology and peoples always want to involve in new technology including bitcoin or altcoin

Not all time the value is low . sometimes the value is high so how can i afford it if im only a poor guy  ?  Buying at smaller chunks maybe ?  The value will still be expensive for a small amount of sats so ill still prefer to wait for the dip  although you still got a point  . people do always want to involve on bitcoin or in cryptos in general  . they do not want to be left behind on the trend a.k.a  fomo  this results for the value to increase the longer the crypto run  . this make us believe that investing at all time is a nice idea  .
293  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Anonymous coins... on: April 18, 2019, 10:09:39 AM
It's a difficult situation. More and more ICOs and exchanges want KYC now, which makes anonymous coins more valuable in theory,

Kyc has nothing to do with anonymous coins . kyc exposes your identity if ever the exchange or the ico that you join will require it but anonymous coins are untraceable after you make a transaction  .

Bitcoin a known anonymous coin before but after few years of its existence.

After a few year of existence it lost its anonimity ?  No meyt  . bitcoin is still anonymous but its only partial  . anonymous because you dont need to put your name other important details before you can make a transaction  , un-anonymous side of bitcoin is when someone traces you by searching your bitcoin address .  they have the ability to see your bitcoin balances  .


294  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do your research before investing in ICOs on: April 18, 2019, 08:59:47 AM
im not an investor of an ico but i like to particpate on ico bounties and airdrops on the past  . to be honest im not a fan of doing a research before i join . i only join them instantly . i would be happy if i recieve some coins but if not , i still accept it  . theres nothing to blame because joining them are free but lets say if im going to invest on ico or on other investment out there that involves real cash/cryptos  , i guess ill have to take the time to do a deep research before deciding if i continue or not  because i dont want to donate my money from a scammer  .
295  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning to trade on: April 18, 2019, 07:46:00 AM
Learning trading will not hard if that person have a big passion for trading and he has a goal to be a good trader. He will have a good effort in every lesson he learned, and he can practice what he read and watch in the video. I am sure that in one day, that person will be a pro trader who can analyze the market in a short time because he has good skills and he can make the profit every day. But that will be a long journey to become a good trader or pro trader, and it's only could reach if he commits without complaint.

You can learn how to do anything if you really want it. Trading may seem to be something very complicated only in the very beginning. The more you learn about it,  the easier it seems to you.

It make easier when we continuously make profit, but if we can't make profit from trading then it meant we have incomplete knowledge about trading. In started when i did trade then it seemed like very easy, but i have lost then i educate myself from YouTube videos and then i started once again and you rely on it than trading make me rich.

Not earning a profit or loosing does not mean that you are lacking of skill or knowledge in trading . keep in mind that professional or experienced traders do also loose big .  loosing is normal because trading on crypto is hard game that cannot be master because there are lots of hindrances that can affect the movements of the coins  . i said once that trading is simillar to gambling as we need a  luck to be able to trade properly  and succesfully earn a profit .
296  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Public sale or pre ICO? can't decide on: April 18, 2019, 06:47:18 AM
Though I don't suggest to invest in ICO. But if you are interested in investing your fund to an ICO then I will suggest you invest during the public sell. Because of duirng pre-sale, we can not understand the project fully.

Why would you not understand their project if they are providing their infos such as roadmap , white paper  , and other details on their site or on their ico ann thread on this forum and on other ico info sites ?  They release all of that infos before they start their pre sale or public sale  . though its wise if you will invest on pre ico because of the bonuses that they offer .

And always try to investigate more before investing any ICO and you can search on Scam Accusations thread of this forum to find out any open scam accusation have or not.

Good suggestion you got there meyt  .  thats right .  investigating or doing some deep research regarding to the ico that you will invest is a nice idea to avoid any further problems  . there were also other sites that list scam and legit ico's  but i forgot the name. Anyways , googel is your friend Smiley
297  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are You Done Buying Cryptocoins? I AM. on: April 18, 2019, 06:10:48 AM
I still buy on a regular basis, usually at the end of the month for a fixed amount of money. I usually buy BTC and a promising altcoin, used to be stellar in 2019!
I paused that buying plan in 2018 and restarted it in February 2019, very lucky me Wink
Never stop if you can still afford to buy, the good thing with this kind of investment is that the return is faster and the profit is high.
It's quite risky as an investment but who would not take this high risk if the reward is good.
If I have enough money to still accumulate, I would do the same, but I stopped now, waiting for my small portfolio to again grow.

Stopping is okay especially if the price of your chosen coin is quite a bit high . a real investor/trader is a wise guy  . they will wait for the lowest possible value of an asset that they want to invest with or without big capital involve . but if you are kind of guy that is impatient , buying at all times can still be a good idea as long as you can afford the coin that you want to buy because cryptocurrency are always known to increase more the longer they exist . that is because the demand or the adoption is also growing
298  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Will Governments Ever Accept Blockchain-Based Cryptocurrencies? on: April 18, 2019, 04:39:43 AM
Due to decentralize nature it is not possible to track transaction on blockchain, this is one of the reason govts are not interested in making Bitcoin a legal currency,

Why not ?  It is possible to track btc transactions on the blockchain . you can do that by clicking the public address of the person that you want to track   . bitcoin is not also illegal on most countries . they already accept bitcoin even bitcoin is decentralize  .

implementing taxes on bitcoin transactions is bit difficult in this case but there should be some wayout if govts try to accept Bitcoin and other popular cryptocurrencies.

Like what i said earlier . bitcoin is already legalize on almost 110 plus countries all over the world including ours but i dont notice that the people on our country are being tax . sure we can pay our tax if we wanted to but not all are willing because most people here on our country are only poor .

Another reason behind non acceptance of Bitcoin is it may badly hit the banking sector of any country as transactions of blockchain is easy, secure, cheap and fast, may be due to this fear most of the govts are not interested in accepting Bitcoin as of now.

This what im also thinking before but not now because like i said earlier , governments and banks are now been teaming up with bitcoin .
299  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Know when to stop a HODL/HOLD on: April 18, 2019, 04:00:46 AM
You're right and right now is a good time to end some hodls before it gets late. The market is showing signs of recovering but we can never be too sure right? So make some cash outs now

It would still depend on the hodler if he bought his coins at a verry low price before then this should be the best time to sell his coins but if the hodler is aiming for a higher profit a.k.a long term and if he bought his coin at a slight higher price then selling now is a bad idea  .  hodling is not bad because hodling is the reason why the price of cryptos are growing . there is no point of stopping this strategy  .
300  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Bitcoin SV going to crash? on: April 18, 2019, 03:21:50 AM
Yes it will because ive heard alot of news recently that alot of online exchange are now de listing this coin   . this news may trigger a panic which leads for the investors of this coin to sell even at loss .

  while on the other hand ,  crash on the price is only normal because all crypto coins do also experience to crash   . crash happens when a hodler or an investor solds his coins for cash but sometimes whales can also be the reason on why coins can crash because they are manipulating it .
