281  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What do you use to keep track of your altcoin investments? on: March 14, 2018, 02:38:45 PM
+1 for Blockfolio, great app on android and it doesnt require you to input any personal information.

Just put in what you have and it will store it, you can add Buy, Sell and Trade transactions and off what exchange you used.
it also has an alert function which I dont use and it also shows the latest trading state for each coin.

Hard to beat IMO

Too many reasons to use Blockfolio...especially for people like me who holds more than 30 coins.

- Can show graph of your portfolio by day, week, month, 3months, 6months, 1year, or all
- it can show your holdings in; dollar, BTC, percent
- it can hide balances.
- shows current unit cost, gain/loss in 24hr, qty of coins you have and the current value per coin (in dollar or BTC)
- can sort by holdings or by coin/token name
- shows graph per coin
- tracks all transactions
- can send alerts for buy/sell
- can track current transactions in exchanges
- shows 24hr high/low, volume, etc.

...all these and more, for FREE and w/o any risk to your holdings. Wink  The downside, when market goes in frenzy, it can slow down a lot just because they are growing faster than expected.

This is one app I am willing to pay for if needed.

I agree with NEO, put I prefer Walton to VEN.
For lower cap stuff I like IoT Chain and maybe WePower.

Definitely DYOR, but I think smart contracts, RFID and IoT will all be big, so it's just picking a good coin in those categories.

I'll bite.  The reason I prefer VEN over WTC is because of their target market.  VEN is for high end (seems like) while WTC is geared towards daily/regular items.  WTC has a potential to go bigger if adopted but I believe higher end products will need to adopt first (they can afford it).  If it succeed, then WTC may follow but not the other way around...I think (but I could be mistaken).   Factor in the price per coin and to me, the obvious better investment is VEN (for now).

For the record, I also hold WTC, just not as much as VEN, but that may change in a few months. Wink

I don't give my reasons...use it to DYOR if you wish...or ignore it.

My top 4 are:
ICX
VEN
NEO
ARK

WTF were you thinking?

There is GDAX or Coinbase for this very purpose.  Unless you really know the person you are dealing with, trying to save on transaction fee (and/or tax) by doing this risky deal is dumb (sorry).
285  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are we repeating the 2014 BTC crash??? on: March 14, 2018, 01:44:35 PM
Still following the trend...and if continues to do so, this may be the start of a massive drop.  Shocked
286  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How much is your altcoin down since January? on: March 14, 2018, 01:25:41 PM
That's bad. You should wait as it is the only option now.
I invested earlier so I don't have big loses or at all.

I also gained overall since my start but the question is SINCE JANUARY...or is that too hard to understand?
287  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What do you use to keep track of your altcoin investments? on: March 14, 2018, 01:22:25 PM
Blockfolio, Tabtrader, Cointracking and Altpocket are in my opinion the top popular ones out there. But if you are someone who is sometimes suspicious of having his account hacked you can go the manual way by using an Excel spreadsheet instead or importing your transactions without connecting to your account.

Just to clarify that Blockfolio is not connected to the account...it is just a monitoring tool based on your manual input.
288  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What do you use to keep track of your altcoin investments? on: March 14, 2018, 12:23:45 PM
Blockfolio - it is a phone app
289  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How much is your altcoin down since January? on: March 14, 2018, 12:11:53 PM
My whole portfolio dropped like 60% since januari.
A very big loss.
I never sold any of it to rebuy in times like now (maybe a big mistake)
I will hold untill the next bull run if this will come.....

Mine is down 70% and I even gained some by flipping at that.  I am not worried and believe it will bounce back soon.

For now, I am waiting for BTC to hit bottom so I can purchase a bit...hopefully before the upward trend starts.
290  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If you could go all in one coin, what would it be? (Can't be BTC or ETH) on: March 13, 2018, 09:25:00 PM
Go for icx. Very undervalued now. Also neo is good choice too.

Based on my investment ...the biggest is on ICX.  I guess that is it for me too. Cheesy

VEN and NEO are 2nd and third respectively.
291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for coins with solid team and MVP on: March 13, 2018, 08:22:18 PM
VEN/VET
292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: $5k Portfolio on: March 13, 2018, 05:21:09 PM
Most people will just advise you to buy what they are already hodling. This is really a big issue in the crypto investment space - trust. Do your own research of each potential coinand make your own decisions. I think we will see more index type investments become available in the crypto market this year which should allow you to spread the risk across a range of coins.

I don't think it is a trust issue...true that people recommend what they hold because they believe in it to begin with (otherwise why purchase/invest on it?). 

Truth is, we all see different things on each coin/token.  Many will get it right but most will be mistaken.  Well meaning folks are eager to help and guide...not knowing/realizing they themselves are also lost. Cheesy

In the end, DYOR is the best answer so you will not have anyone else to blame but yourself it it fails.
293  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: VeChain, still super undervalued on: March 13, 2018, 03:50:35 PM
I think the title is not about ranking or current price, rather about perceived growth potential vs other coins...say the next 6 months.  In that context, I agree.  It is one of the more promising coins currently out IMHO.
294  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: VeChain, still super undervalued on: March 13, 2018, 03:12:11 PM
I think the 17th place on coinmarketcap is not undervalued

It is relative.  Would you say the #1 (BTC) was not undervalued when it was $204 in 2015? Wink
295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Wish I never bought altcoins on: March 12, 2018, 08:46:57 PM
Would have been much better off just leaving everything in bitcoin. Altcoins suck.

If you know how to look and where, you will notice opportunities everywhere.
..yes even during BTC downturn, I am "making money" or more precisely, I am increasing my coin holdings without injecting more fiat or additional investment.  

There is risk but if you are willing to take them (and put the extra effort), there are 10-20% gains that can be made almost every week with the right coin/token. Wink
296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I need to double 4,000 USD in 2 weeks on: March 11, 2018, 03:06:06 PM
Hi,

I will attempt this and I need to double 4,000 USD in 2 weeks

Any coin ‘suggestion’ ?

Since you are asking, I'd think you are now savvy enough to make it work...especially on this red market.  You are more likely to lose money now than gain.

Keep you fiat and wait for BTC to bottom out before investing, it is safer that way.
297  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How to make money from staking? on: March 11, 2018, 03:28:21 AM
It's called proof of Stake, you can earn passive income by staking your coin in your wallet. I think it's a really great idea because it doesn't use as much electricity as proof of Work. There are a few coins that are going to switch from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake in the near future for exemple Ethereum and Syscoin.

 Proof of Work to Proof of Stake i dont know about proof of work? elaborate?

Ever heard of mining?  You provide hash power to process transactions for the coin and in return, you get paid with a coin/token.
Mining is basic of crypto currencies...  
THAT is  proof of work.
And what about PROOF OF STAKE
Somewhat the same, by staking your coins on your wallet and running it, you also provide hashing power and get paid proportionate to your holdings/amount of coins.

The big difference between POS vs POW is that in POS the actual coin/token holders control the hash power.  In POW, anyone who has money (set up mining farms) can control the mining (i.e. in case of BTC) and have so much power (reason for all the forks) contrary to the wishes of the coin owners.

DPOS is a hybrid of these two.  Delegates are chosen depending on how much coins/tokens they control and are the only ones who can "mine".  Smaller token/coin holders have a say by having the choice which delegate to vote for.

There are so many different parameters effecting price, how can a comparison even be made with any other year?

Bitcoin is facing different external events, government reg, etc...

All things being equal you can compare the two, but all things are not equal.

Obviously, you did not watch the video. Wink

I am actually just waiting for $7k-ish.
