281  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitox.io new decentralized exchange on: May 15, 2018, 01:13:39 PM
We need more decentralized exchanges now,and you said you are listing new tokens for free so you can contact some of the ICO projects for get their new tokens into your exchange.But I think running a short or long running signature campaign about your project will let the people know more about your exchange.Good luck!
Seeing decentralized exchanges evolving and more coming up will really be a good thing for the community. I hope they will be able to keep up with the growth in the community and the aspect of security anyway since that was like the main issue most of the time with Etherdelta. Fortunately, if this is one thing that is out of the show, it should be a good start for decentralized exchanges and the more the merrier.

It is nice that we are having multiple partly decentralized exchange coming up regularly like this. This is a good sign of the disruptions and better service that would be experienced in trading and exchange of cryptocurrency in the future
Yes, these decentralized exchanges may enforce the fall of dominance of most other exchanges as they might see a differences in their trading volume. I also wish for more decentralized exchanges and more decentralized services everywhere.
282  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Number One Reason NOT to invest in Crypto on: May 15, 2018, 10:06:34 AM
i dont agree with you, thousand of peoples millionarie after investing in ico, and their are no other option to get huge profit. thats why people love crypto currency,
The truth is that people will always have their own share of how things end up turning out for them, and rather than blaming themselves to see where their mistakes are, they blame everything they can.

Yeah, it is pitiable to lose such an amount of money by the OP, but I am sure he really must have made himself vulnerable to being hacked and knowing that you cannot escape them in this space, just as you cannot escape real thieves in real life sometimes, the only way you can actually do is to increase your level of security when you know what you are worth, but I guess some would not until they end up learning the hard way.
283  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people mine Crypto? on: May 15, 2018, 07:55:33 AM
People mine crypto because mining is more like a free way to get some coins. A lot of people who have such a large stash of coins actually made the coins from mining and back then a lot of bitcoins could be mined using just a laptop or a desktop with a GPU but now that is not the case. They mine because it is a good way to get a lot of coins without having to buy the coins yourself.
Yes, it is more like you are solving some complex algorithm problem with your miners to verify transactions which is the main purpose that they serve for a long term and short term benefit as the case may be. It is normal to understand the essence of mining anyway to be able to understand the reason why people mine.

Asking for the reason why people mine is more like asking for the reason why people invest which is basically to make profit and a way to put their money to work. Cryptos have invented a new way of earning in the name of mining. Making use of new earning method is always being preferred by all human.
284  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will the governments kill cryptocurrencies on: May 15, 2018, 07:19:02 AM
It's possible that government will ban cryptocurrencies if a group of complainants will approach them and tell bad stories. This is their spontaneous reaction to complaints. So unless we keep sad stories within ourselves I don't think the government will intervene.
Group of complainants ? What do they have to tell that is not already known and by now I am sure every government is applying the idea of you are investing at your own risk even while some are trying their best to apply some form of regulation. At the end, it is impossible for government to destroy cryptocurrency as it is totally not going to be an easy thing to achieve, but regulation can make them to benefit a whole lot from it which I believe this is what so many of them are already beginning to look at.
285  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum a threat to bitcoin on: May 15, 2018, 05:24:31 AM
Bitcoin is the king of crypto currency and for me no altcoin can beat it but I won't deny that ETH is really a threat to btc although i'm confident because of their big gap in price. Too many years before eth can dethrone or maybe not, even once. No one knows.
Obviously no altcoin is going to be beating it and that edge is what bitcoin is going to keep having as long as nothing is changed in its protocol and it remains as established as it gets even the more. ETH is not a threat at all to bitcoin and even the OP could not even come up with anything tangible as every reason he gave was just whacked.

A lot of people just say what they feel like without really digging deep to see how it is not so easy for an inflationary protocol to surpass a deflationary protocol. Also, bitcoin is so established to the core that it would make it hard for any alt to just displace it that easily with the level of community support.
286  Economy / Economics / Re: Any ideas of what we lack in crypto world? on: May 14, 2018, 08:32:16 PM
Lack of knowledge is the main reason we have only a few peoples in the crypto world. People fail to understand the true potential of crypto currencies that's why they fail to believe.This one of the reasons people don't like cryptocurrency related things. We have to teach people what is crypto currency, its benefit, its true potential. They are not going to know about crypto currency in their dreams we are the one who has to make the change.

I agree that most people know not much about cryptos. But this is not the main reason why folks don`t like things related to cryptocurrency, I think. I believe that the whole point is that сrypto-currencies do not have enough reliability. Сrypto-currencies and blockchain are not as resistant to theft and burglary as is commonly believed. Every seventh Bitcoin and Ethereum goes to hackers. People are afraid to become victims of fraud.
both lack of knowledge and reliability are huge problems of the users and bitcoin, itself,. Users who has lack of knowledge doesn't know the real thing about bitcoin. Some believes that bitcoin is a scam without even having first-hand experience. Users tend to look at the dark side of bitcoin rather than what is the fortune that awaits them after all those risky investments. and this is where we enter the problem of bitcoin which is reliability. It is hard to protect or advertise bitcoin if it is really true that investing is really risky and the price are really unstable. So I think both are major problems that we need to solve first before heading to world domination.
Right, I guess lack of knowledge has really made people to lose their asset, make wrong decisions, and get to be a huge victim of the internet age of hackers who are looking for those to scoop their assets for them.

Moreover, this is not lacking as there are so many information all over the web for people to make use of, but I feel they are just too lazy to find it, or they do not know how to find it or they are simply nonchalant about it and that is a huge problem that most especially has brought security lapses to some accounts and funds, as well as people panicking for no reason.
287  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the most influential factor that triggers bitcoin prices to fall down? on: May 14, 2018, 06:59:50 PM
Bitcoin is very volatile. It goes up and down at no time. But I started to think what causes its values to go down. These past few days, its prices are notably lower that last year's values. Last year, I believe, during the first few months, its prices are likewise low. Do bitcoin prices go down every January to February? Does it have a logical association?

In my own opinion, the fake news that are being created by different people about cryptocurrency is affecting the investors to sell their coins immediately, in this way the price is keep on dumping plus the traders who are not well knowledgeable about the market.
Yes, fake news is part of it, but it is just a way to create panic and FUD among those weak investors who really do not see the potential in the future of bitcoin but just the quick profit and gain. With this in play, the whales always use this strategy as well as some little bit of manipulations to drive down the price so as to take all the chances they could have to make more profit.

The only thing is just to know how to play safe even as a trader in this environment as everything can happen pretty fast.
288  Economy / Economics / Re: 7 REASONS WHY: which one are you? on: May 14, 2018, 05:59:16 PM
The SHOW OFF reason is quite funny lol. Three of the reasons you stated here are why I’m making use of Bitcoin. The number one reason why I started making use of Bitcoin is because I needed a payment method for my job; well, not really me, my boss wanted to make use of it as a payment method, so I had no other option than to accept it also.

The next are the two reasons which are: TECHY & CONVENIENCE : yes Bitcoin is really a convenient way of making transactions, but that’s only for international transactions, if I’m doing anything locally in my country I make use of my bank app. Bitcoin is also techy and I do show off with it sometimes, lol… most of my friends know nothing about it😂
289  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Digital Currency Take Over on: May 14, 2018, 04:05:20 PM
The situation remains ambiguous about digital currencies. Many countries believe in the Blockchain technology, but the decentralization of digital currencies may weaken the authority of the states.
There are more than 1,000 digital currencies, although most are not needed, the number is increasing every day.
The need to regulate this market is healthy to avoid scam, but as I said, these currencies are decentralized.
Right, as the truth here is that most countries are actually seeing the blockchain technology as the future but the fact also is that, they cannot tend to admit the idea of decentralization even though they really do not have much of a choice now than to accept the idea and regulate the environment. Over time, there would be a switch to integrating the blockchain technology into the fiat system and I guess we are gradually beginning to see that.
290  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Scam market YObit.net and YObit.io on: May 14, 2018, 01:35:39 PM
Yes I can confirm that help desk is unfair and never answer.
At the same time I suggest to activate 2fa system on every exchange account that keeps any type of tokens.
This has been confirmed a long time ago, except that most of you usually do not know how to make some research on the exchanges you are about to use. You are all easily swayed by getting shitty forked coins, trading shit coins and all that, which always make you guys end up in exchanges like this. The point however here is that, you cannot always eat your cake and have it. Irrespective of what you do to beef up the securities on these type of exchanges like Yobit, it does not change the fact that it is still a shit exchange.
291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lets be careful on what we are investing on: May 14, 2018, 12:03:30 PM
Investing in any kind of business the risk is always there. If you like to invest in some ICO's better do some research about the project. So that you will not get scam. Pick a project that has low and realistic hard cap. Because surely if the project is good then they will reached the hard cap and it's good for the project and investors.
Yeah, there is absolutely no business that does not come with a risk, but the only way to minimize those risks is to try as much as possible to be knowledgeable enough in those areas of investment, have a good idea what you are investing in and know how to always play safe. The good thing about the internet space is that you can always get so much information easily and I do not expect that people should still be making wrong investment decisions with that.
292  Economy / Economics / Re: Government Furious on: May 14, 2018, 11:29:25 AM
The capitalization of bitcoin transactions reaches billions of dollars but governments of any country can not get revenues or income from these transactions and this makes governments in many countries complain of the existence of bitcoin because it is considered a threat to the economy of a country. Should tax apply to users who do bitcoin transactions? When are users comfortable with this situation? what is the right regulation to address these issues to help each country improve its economy?

Indeed anonymity of Bitcoin transactions give the government headaches, but it does not mean they can't control the flow of cryptocurrency in their country. I think all they have to do is support cryptocurrency and make a regulated wallets which allows users to convert and transactions through it and have it taxed. In that way they are helping their constitutes and improve their economy as well.
That can still play out easily for those making use of exchanges since it is basically capital gain tax and I guess all the information during the period of your purchase, holding and withdrawal is all opened to the exchanges which can be made use of since it is a centralized exchange and the account as well as wallet is attached to such an individual.

Nevertheless, in the category of those who may not be making use of exchanges, that is where their problem lies, but who really cares how furious they want to get anyway ?
293  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Crypto currencies make local currencies disappear? on: May 14, 2018, 05:18:12 AM
Competition between local currencies Vs crypto currencies are in peak now. Crypto currencies have occupied currency market causing local currencies enforce (banks) banning of crypto currencies. We can see number of investors have turned towards to bitcoin and other crypto currencies with large scale. Will there be a chance / time bitcoin and other crypto currencies rule over currency market and local currencies get disappear slowly in a decade or two?

If any government decides to use cryptocurrencies then obviously the local currencies get disappeared. But remember there is whole lot of monetary economics involved there and things are not easy as we do in crypto.
Cryptocurrency is profitable business today and there is no doubt that the world is now turning towards cryptocurrency. The use of cryptocurrency is also very easy. Buy anything in the world and pay from your bitcoin wallet. No need for exchange your local currency. It is the main reason that all other currencies will disappear from the market.
Obviously, as we move ahead, we will get to see cryptocurrency becoming a currency of usage and a lot of people who are vast technologically will find it amusing to make use of.

Nevertheless, this would play its own role in the digital sector while local currencies will play its own role in the traditional sector. The good thing about it however is that it ends up creating a competition for the banking sector and probably things would get better over time in the traditional financial sector.
294  Economy / Economics / Re: Lost Bitcoins on: May 13, 2018, 07:59:14 AM
bitcoin will never disappear, bitcoin will add forward and also grows
No one is talking about bitcoin disappearing here bro. We are talking about the bitcoins that have been lost in the sense that the owners either threw them away without knowing how much the value is going to be in the future or they just could not find their private key or what they stored it as. Obviously, bitcoin is here to stay but those coins are gone and gone forever and the only way to ever get them is to be able to get the private keys to such wallet which we all know it is not something that can be retrieved once it is lost.
295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KUcoin forcing KYC for every users on: May 12, 2018, 08:50:40 AM
That's a bad decision early for the exchange. Binance the leader is not asking for KYC upto 2BTC daily trading.
The move would increase the dependence of Binance.
KYC with it's recent misuses have led negative image of it on every investors and traders.
They always started in a way until they are being forced by regulation anyway.
I remembered when bittrex also started until the US regulation required it and the thing is you cannot blame these exchanges as they are subject to those regulation and policies as well.

However, the only thing that would make this stuff change is to start having decentralized exchanges which I believe will reduce the problem most people are having with KYC but I guess we are not even close to getting our hands on a good decentralized exchange for now.
296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: binance or folkdelta or bancor on: May 12, 2018, 08:00:31 AM
In my opinion the best exchange that on which is available: it is a lot of qualitative altcoins, large day volumes, the excellent interface and safety. Binance perfectly approaches under this description! Also very much are pleasant: Bittrex and Kucoin.
It is even very funny as the OP is not even comparing binance with other exchanges like bittrex, Kucoin, poloniex and the likes and of all exchanges, bancor and forkdelta ?

I am not sure if he has done any research before even asking these questions or if this is part of his research, but it is glaring that no one who is going to be giving an answer would be leaving our binance for any of those other exchanges for any reason because there is none.
297  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What I Should Know Before i Start Trading Cryptocurrency on: May 11, 2018, 04:33:57 AM
when trading you must know the way first so you do not lose your money many cases when trading but they do not know how to trade and get profit for Hodl and Shell I suggest Hodl coin you because cryptocurenncy very hard to know with our mind
The one thing that you should know when you're already decided to start trading cryptocurrency is learn and know how to control your emotions and have a long patience because in trading you couldn't tell that you could get a good profit everytime you trade your coin or whatsoever that's why all of the traders are treating patience as a virtue.
Basically, the only tool that any wannabe trader needs to be able to go through with what they want. It can be very frustrating for those who do not have the knowledge, and that is where a lot of people always miss it most times.

As long as you want to trade, the best thing is to never make a mistake of trying it out without taking learning seriously and not just rushing into learning but making sure one knows everything that is needed to know, otherwise, it would be a huge pain for anyone who really wants to go ahead in such situations without that.
298  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your trading strategy? on: May 10, 2018, 06:04:13 PM
Hey guys, I keep thinking what are the most poppular/most efficient trading strategies. Also do you trade on a few specific coins that you just trade on through out the year or not?

I want to ask you to share yours, but of course you don't have to be specific, just say if its e.g. arbitrage, bot/margin trading, buy the dip / hodl, pnd or whatever else. If its somthing other than in the poll just talk about it here or in general feel free to discuss trading strategies.

I personally like to hodl, not sure that can be counted as trading strategy, but wanted to go first.
My trading strategy is simply trend following making use of all the necessary indicators to make my decisions.
Basically, I make use of Bollinger band, MA, RSI, DMI and MACD to make my trade decisions and so far, it has been awesome.

Although I can say based on your option, I buy low and sell high, but any sensible trader knows it is not just about buying low and selling high as you must know exactly where you are picking your positions, otherwise you will be totally screwed.
299  Economy / Economics / Re: Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies. on: May 10, 2018, 02:52:49 PM
The expansion as well as the lighting bitcoin is very far. ICO does not have many protection measures for investors. Regulations also make it difficult for countries to agree on regulations. The only two feasible factors are the increased usability and usability of cryptocurrency. Investors are becoming more organized.

Hey you can get the escrow from this forum also being involved in the ICO project. I see many people who is part of project act as a escrow for token distribution mate. So not think all the ICO are fake one.
You may invest on Dimcoin tokens which is already listed on exchange.
I personally have faith on this token which can go more than 1 USD before this year ends mate.
Even asides that, with or without escrow, it is still always very necessary to be sure you are investing in a good project before you even think about it at all. It is not about the project getting listed anymore, it is actually about the project or the coin surviving out there which these days, we all know how fast the government is responding to illegal projects and that can become pretty awry for some coins that does not give that positive legal vibe.

Not just 2018, all coming years also will be the best one for crypto users until there will be a saturation in terms of new adopters. I guess even after almost all the people around the world would have adopted bitcoins, I guess best years may keep coming as new investments will keep attracted toward cryptos as it will get more established.
300  Economy / Economics / Re: How will crypto go long term? on: May 09, 2018, 03:54:04 AM
The bitcoin market will rise and the trading will increase if the market is open for everyone.
Along with that we have also to mention that in the coming future people will like to accept this currencies for their businesses and they will also adopt the blockchain technology for their businesses to reduce the errors and the corruption in their businesses as like the coca cola has adopted this technology for to reduce the corruption in the wages of labors.
There is no way we can stop having demand for cryptocurrency. This like someone rightly said will end up being more like a stock market, some market will stay up strong, some will grow in value in the long run and some will obviously disappear.

The thing however is that this would be a real pure space for investment and we will get to see big investors in the long run who would also want to tap from this world and I also see this world to end up being a matured one. This is how I personally foresee cryptocurrency market in the long run.
