281  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin recovering to $10,000 could bring a new buyers.. on: February 16, 2018, 11:43:59 AM
In the week around Thanksgiving, Coinbase added about 300,000 users, helping send bitcoin from around $8,000 to $10,000.

interesting but irrelevant point!
and also you are saying it in a way as if Coinbase added those users out of thin air! there were actual people who started investing in bitcoin because of a lot of reasons including the phenomenal performance of bitcoin, the potential that it has and also the fact that CME then others such as NASDAQ started adding bitcoin related markets.

this is called speculation board. if we were looking for guesses we would have called it guessing board or gambling board instead. you need to do some analysis or at least say "why"!

as long as we are guessing i am going to guess price will go to $1 million and settle there!

nobody can possibly tell you how it happened unless they investigate your case thoroughly but it is a common thing to happen if you are using a web wallet instead of a proper desktop or better yet an offline storage. and also if you are not careful about what website you are visiting or what kind of malwares and keyloggers you have on your computer!
284  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin to go down big dip on: February 15, 2018, 11:05:50 AM
Yeah unlikely that litecoin will have a big dip considering that hard fork, most will try to get more and take advantage of the situation where you will get forks free coins as well

LOL. i have been away so i don't know if LTC will dip or not but what you said doesn't make any sense! if anything with this fork of litecoin there should be a bigger rise because more greedy people are buying it and that is a simple pump.

and there is 4 more days left to the actual fork!
285  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRB (Nano) is loosing ground - why on: February 15, 2018, 10:55:08 AM
welcome to the world of altcoins also known as pump and dumps.

what you see is the dumping phase of a pumped coin. since they changed the name and got some hype going on the price of this coin started getting pumped hard. and after the pumping phase ends the dumping phase starts, which you are seeing now.

Nano is actually an interesting project though. but this is speculation board and that doesn't matter.
286  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Cash is going to $3500 by June on: February 15, 2018, 10:35:10 AM

Sorry, I'm not expert from blockchain.. Does this mean that someone has the ability to manipulate Bitcoin Cash Blockchain?

that is a perfectly normal thing to happen!
any miner can decide to not include any transactions in the blocks and just find them. which means the block will have only 1 transaction called the coinbase transaction in it. that happens with bitcoin too. of course they will be missing the transaction fees if they do that.
also there are many reasons for something like that to happen due to randomness of finding a block and the fact that sometimes finding a block takes a couple of seconds.

BCH is a shitcoin, there is no argument there but this doesn't necessarily mean someone is manipulating BCH Blockchain. and it has nothing to do with its price.
287  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH is the next generation of BTC? on: February 15, 2018, 08:28:31 AM
that is how they get you to invest in it while those who are holding the million premined coins of it are getting richer and richer with each pump and dump that happens.
they play with your very first nature which is Greed. when you start thinking you can get rich with ETh because supposedly you missed the boat on bitcoin you start buying it and miss the bitcoin boat even more.
for example you could have bought bitcoin at $900 last year and see it rise to $20,000 and the same thing will be repeated this year while altcoins are pump and dumping.
288  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy when market is Red on: February 15, 2018, 08:19:13 AM
Buy when market is Red, a trick to successful trading. Also dont put buy orders ahead of time.
that's the great time to buy when the market is color red,and hodl wait to become green again that's the strategy of some traders buy cheaper and sell high

you misunderstood the strategy!
it is called buy in the dip not buy during the drop. and let me tell you that there is a huge difference between the two. imagine an altcoin with the price of 0.1BTC which is falling. if you buy during the fall (while it is red) eg. @0.09BTC you will lose a lot of money when the fall continues and price reaches 0.05BTC.
the recovery of this altcoin is to 0.055-0.06BTC at best and you still lost a lot of money.
289  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why BTC & ETH falling simultaneously? Are they not different blockchain? on: February 15, 2018, 08:14:59 AM
Do people agree that holding altcoins are worthless than since everything depends on btc?
holding altcoins is not such a good idea. trading them is a much better one.

Quote
However, that altcoin could multiply a lot more than btc especially if that coin has a very low market cap right?
"can" does not mean "will" but yes they can get pumped so their rises can be a lot bigger.

Quote
Also is it pretty much 100 percent that its impossible for the altcoins to increase in price if btc drops in price?
there is nothing called 100% and we have nearly 2000 altcoins there will be exceptions as there have been. if an altcoin is getting pumped there aren't much that can stop that.

Quote
So if bitcoin hits a huge number, would that mean all these altcoins at the moment would at least multiply at least the amount btc multiplies in value?
no
290  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Goodbye BCash? Is the war over with this Microsoft news? FOMO on BTC/LTC/ETH? on: February 15, 2018, 05:12:20 AM
Looks like Bitcoin Cash price gains had also stopped now too vs BTC.

the "gains" of bitcoin cash and LTC and ETH have always been pumps nothing more. and currently BCH is keeping the price around 0.14BTC. they could have pumped it pretty good if this news didn't come out. now the pump will just be postponed LOL.
291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Myetherwallet question on: February 14, 2018, 05:36:17 PM
And what will happen if I publish address wallet?
With it, you can not steal tokens.

one of the basics of cryptocurrencies is based on key pairs.
you have a secret key known as private key which you never share. and you have a public key which you can give to others.

public key is derived from the private key in a one directional operation which means you can simply find the public key from private key but the reverse (private key from public key) is practically impossible.

in simple terms no if you publish your address nobody can steal your tokens.
292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple to the moon? on: February 14, 2018, 05:15:23 PM
maybe this time Western Union gets involved with Ripple then ditches them like their banks did and makes themselves a new (more) centralized version of Ripple and takes advantage of it.
they can call it WU coin and get to competing with bitcoin in their dreams thinking they have created a valid competitor Wink
293  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stablecoins on: February 14, 2018, 04:37:31 PM
at first i thought you were actually talking about a coin called "stablecoin" specially since you didn't put a space between them! but since google didn't turn up any coin with that name i am sure you just missed a "space".

with that said you can not have an honest decentralized cryptocurrency with fair distribution and expect its price to be stable!
when it is a free market that nobody can fully control, with a fair distribution of the coins, you will get a volatile market. and as the adoption of it grows there will be wild swings but in long run it will be reduced.
294  Economy / Speculation / Re: Chinese new year crash from today on: February 14, 2018, 04:23:06 PM
Uh oh Chinese new year is 1 day away and people are cashing out and bitcoin will be falling again starting today.

you sound like someone who missed their chance of buying bitcoin when it dropped down drastically to $5900 or probably you sold your coins there!

right now price is above $9000+ and you have lost your chance of buying it. and if things go on like this and the resistance is broken price can easily reach $14000 in less than a week.

all the news about Chinese new year is already a couple of weeks old...
295  Economy / Services / Re: ★☆★ SHIFT.CASH BTC Signature Campaign★☆★ $2000 payable in BTC WEEKLY on: February 14, 2018, 02:16:38 PM

296  Economy / Speculation / Re: Just drew this out. I'm hopeful its wrong, but found this curious. on: February 10, 2018, 12:39:11 PM
Its looks like iran rial currency and according to the image the price was drop and i think he is talking about the price of bitcoin was drop from the live chart in rial?

as i said above it is the total market capitalization. if you check the numbers they check out Wink

your theory is interesting but the numbers are still not right.
1 BTC is currently worth about 39,620,000 IRR and even at the peak it was worth about 82,000,000 IRR
the biggest number on that silly chart of OP is 813,871,000,000
297  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: to many poor people? on: February 10, 2018, 11:26:36 AM
I think this last correction was needed and many more to kill off a lot of shit coins and lame projects as well as get rid of these poor people in the game just trying to get rich.

if you think this is going to happen then you are new to the world of crypto!

all these dumps are never going to kill anything. all these shitcoins are going to go down a little then get pumped after a while. and the same idiots will also remain around pouring their money in the pockets of the pumpers. it has nothing to do with them being poor or anything.
298  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do POW coins still have a future? on: February 10, 2018, 11:12:27 AM
yes because unlike what you may think, there is not a good alternative for PoW created yet. they advertise some stuff that can be better but i have not yet seen anything that is actually better.

and it is not expensive and your electricity bill will pay for itself because you will be getting a reward for the "Work" that you do.
in fact PoW is the best method of distribution so far. the rest of them are completely unfair distributions.
299  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bosch invests in IOTA on: February 10, 2018, 10:55:18 AM
if the news was fresh and real then it means there can be a pump in IOTA. OP forgot to post any links in his post but reading the comments it seems like the news is quite old so don't get your hopes up for something that came out months ago.

with that said IOTA is a good project that is worth investing into. it along with a couple of other similar coins will have a good year this year.
300  Economy / Speculation / Re: Just drew this out. I'm hopeful its wrong, but found this curious. on: February 10, 2018, 10:50:25 AM

What exactly are you trying to say? Could you please elaborate?

he is poorly trying to say that total market capitalization has dropped!
the chart doesn't even say it is total market capitalization nor his title of this topic, you have to look at the chart for a while and "guess it" yourself!

and i am not even sure what conclusion he is trying to make here because he is using the market capitalization which is a meaningless thing to use!
