Stellar supporters are claiming that the coin has potential to reach among the top 5. Today, in a maket sentiment of uncertainty haunting most of crypto Stellar still manages to rise 8% in USD value over the last 24 hours.
What do you think of XLM's potential?
Top 5 in market cap? I think it is possible if many money has been poured in into XLM but the only question is why people will do it soon? Good price movements despite market's bad sentiment wouldn't fully encourage people to invest and buy XLM. It needs more good news for it to reach top , and it also needs to overtake eos, litecoin and cardano in market capitalization for it to have the 5th spot. |

It's true. Once bitcoin has extensive side chain functionality, altcoins will be essentially phased out, unless they convert into a sidechain.
Altcoins will not be phased out like what this user said: Altcoins will not cease to exist but continue to co-exist with whatever Bitcoin is bringing to the table.
There will still be someone left to use those altcoins with functions so long as it is usable, depending on the situation some users will always tend to use some alts because it is more efficient to use in their current state(great proof why it will happen is the way how people still use candles and any other old lighting devices despite having light bulbs and flashlight today). |

I've just had this brilliant idea - why don't we have a board for beginners.  Isn't that what beginners and help section is supposed to be used for? If it is, then there is no need to create another board dedicated for newbies. Mods there just needs to be stricter in moderating it. I think it's interesting that TMAN's thread about him having loads of sMerit is dropping on the beginner's board. A couple of weeks ago, they would have been all over it. now it seems as if they don't care.
I don't know how they seem to not care at all? Maybe they have accepted that they won't rank up anymore? Or maybe they just don't care since they can still earn some cents with their ranks? |

We could call it irony or hypocrisy but this is a reality.
A lot of people badmouth daily about Bitcoin but most of them use it (or own it)
The other group of people is filled with people who regret not joining the Bitcoin party years ago, or can't buy some bitcoins.
When they don't have something they start to badmouth, it gives themselves an excuse. For example, you would like to have the latest Audi because it's the king in the car industry, you can't afford to buy the latest, you will start to find all kind of excuses to explain
why you don't buy it:
- Costing too much for maintenance,
- petrol price keeps increasing,
- ecology,
- you can even start to say Audi kills babies! Hi Roger Ver...
At the same time, most of the altcoins look like the same from each other, nothing new...
If Bitcoin is so bad then why do you clone it to make your own coin? And more important why do you use the brand name, logo etc....
With the years I find people on the internet become weirder and bizarre but in the crypto world it is a higher level of weird people
It is obvious why they are doing it, They want bitcoin price to go down more and since they might already own a little sum of bitcoin, they want to buy more at a lower price. Since public sentiment changes easily(specially right now where many newbies in crypto is holding), a dump can easily be triggered by fake news and FUD is spread in order to make those newbies(as well as others) panic sell. |

I think this would greatly impact the public image of cryptocurrencies and their actions will dictate whether the public will see crypto in general as good or better. If they have done well in creating their own coin, I am sure that it will be favorable to crypto but if they have done poorly, crypto will suffer and it's public image will meet a lot of negative reactions. |

In my opinion Socialism is good for us.
Because,capitalism is associated with unfair and inefficient distribution of wealth and power.So there is no chance for equal growth.In this model "rich get richer and the poor get poorer".
If we think like environmentalist,then capitalism requires continual economic growth and will inevitably deplete the FINITE natural resources of the earth.
Capitalism is still way better than socialism. IMO unfair and inefficient distribution of wealth is what we need to keep citizens working hard on jobs, by doing so economy.also improves. Society is more organized too when it follows capitalism, since the wealthy is the one who provides jobs, and there are also enough people to take the job. |

This is just my suggestion though, but could theymos make the forgot password more secure by requiring users to provide other information first besides username? That way, situations like what OP experienced will be lessened. Also I think the forum users would be safer if the forum will have a 2fa authentication feature where users can opt to use it to make accounts less prone to hacking.

1. I've reviewed others ICO posts from different levels of community members, and if I post a new thread for my project including links and info to show what we have. (minus the visual images I'm not able to post yet) We are new so it would include some of our numbers, Website,Twitter etc. would that ruin reputation for me being so early here?
Do you mean posting an announcement thread? If that is the case then you posting the thread wouldn't ruin your reputation at all even if you are a newbie but in order to post images, you will need to avail of the copper membership. You can refer to this thread if you need to avail of it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2385104.02. Are bigger name supports/sponsors important for pre-ICO/ICO launches?
Bigger name support/sponsors is not that important for pre-ICO/ICO launches IMO but their support can somehow be of great help and contributes to the success of an ICO. 3.How can I avoid scammers that ask/want tokens but have no intention on helping support the network?
What do you mean by this? Bounty or community managers that doesn't support the network? If that is the case then you should look for the thread of some well known bounty managers here in this forum. If you are referring to bounty participants, you can't avoid them. |

It's quite pathetic to think that most of the victims are people who doesn't even have a clue on cryptocurrency.
Yeah, most of them have zero knowledge on crypto. If you'll ask them, all they can say is "bitcoin, a money on the internet". They've got sweet-talked like hell with endless promises.
What's the funniest thing of all in that incident is that a single entity decided to invest 10 million Philippine peso where in fact they could easily buy a whole btc using that sum? Another funny thing there is how the ones who referred users there are being threatened by their downlines. They should have had done their research before investing, and bought Bitcoin themselves. |

I bought a bunch BTC when it was $17000, then bought a bunch when it is $14000...then the price dropped until 2 days ago. I bought a bunch again when it was 6000ish...haha, now the price went up...so, really, when is it a good time to buy? When it dropped for a while and it rose a little bit, then drop again, then buy?
It is better to buy if the market dumped hard, not just on dumps in a small scale like how it dumped to 17,000$ to 14,000$. IMO it is better to buy if bitcoin has lost more than 50-60% of it's price since it means that it had dropped a lot in price and might stabilize for a while before a pump. Nevertheless, if you already got some btc to hodl, it wouldn't hurt to just keep it until you have some profit from it. |

Those "experts" should really learn to do one thing. Stop posting garbage !!!
Those so called experts in price analysis should call themselves as FOMO experts, it is really obvious that they are only trying to spread FOMO, in the hopes that bitcoin price will go up. They wouldn't stop to post garbage even if they know that what they are currently posting is a trash(they don't care about the public anyway, they only care about their profits and their so called insider information is also not true). |

I can't tell what is going on but I've been able to "claim" BTCP over 100 times from the SAME Bitcoin that I have. I was just messing around with wallets but I have 2100 BTCP now. It doesn't seem right, I haven't tried moving them to an exchange (as if there are any right now) but I can transfer them between wallets. I would chalk it up to a wallet bug but how can I possible move them between wallets? Has anyone else experienced this?
I haven't really tried messing around with their wallets as I only claimed once, but most probably that is a bug on the fork's side not on the wallet. If you can transfer them between wallets, most probably BTCP developer is unaware of the issue ATM. It should be fixed soon but I wonder if you will lose those 2100 BTCP or not? Even if you don't many users would not claim BTCP so I think it is probably the reason why it is possible ATM(what you experienced). |

The price of the Ethereum these days are more stable than bitcoin. However, bitcoin's value might proliferate since it's been a long time since it's value goes up. What do you think guys is the right thing to do?
The right thing to do right now is to invest and diversify on alts and invest onto both as well. iMO there are many more altcoins out there with the potential to grow and by doing so, one might profit more than the profit he/she will gain from investing only in both ethereum and bitcoin. Just only be careful in choosing alts, don't pick the ones that are soon to be shitcoin. |

Bitcoin price is going down day by day..
Is bitcoin cash have that much potential to overcome the bitcoin?
There is a chance that bitcoin cash will dethrone bitcoin but IMO the probability of it happening is below 1%. There are many other good altcoins popping out of ICO's that might also overtake bitcoin, but it is most likely that btc will stay as the king of cryptocurrency even if it has become mainstream. That will be the case because as of the moment it is more well known and is proven to be resilient unlike any other coin. |

This is very good move by Intel. This will accelerate the mining in great extent. And this is obviously the result of Bitcoin’s popularity and greater reach. More of this will just make it better for Bitcoin. Thanks for sharing.
I hope they wouldn't only think of accelerating crypto mining, I also hope that they would also develop a miner which is more efficient to use and is electricity friendly(consumes more electricity). I think miners like these are what the community needs atm in order to make mining more feasible and thus might solve slow transaction problems today. More companies doing this indeed will not only make it better for btc and crypto as a whole, but it would entice investors(outsiders) to try mining cryptos for once. |

anyone can say or when will it will be stable and goes up ?
The guy above my post is right but no one can tell the exact date of the stabilization of the market and of no one can also tell when a bullish trend will occur again. All you have to do for now is to hold what you bought, and never sell it at a price lower than what you have bought it for because it will only help the whales if you sold the eth that you have bought from selling your bitcoins. Wait for a pump first before selling. |

It's a good decision but the only problem is where will the investment capital comes from since my whole portfolio is agonizingly winding down to zero while I watch hopelessly ,praying ,hoping against hope for a reversal.,waiting for that almighty GREEN again to bring smile to our faces
Too bad you have held you stash for too long, you should have had sold some when it was experiencing the almighty green so that you will have some investment capital to rebuy coins now. I commend OP's decision to buy all good altcoins that are in the red this year but I suggest him to post his stash(altcoin portfolio) here in this thread for others to give their thoughts about it. |

If 11 year old kid can launch an ICO than this will question whole crypto market, there could be many scammers who can easily start ICO and run away on end. How people gonna trust a 11 year old kid with their money, everybody can make big claims even kid like him can but he couldn't make deals with big companies or gaming platforms.
Who would make a sound deal with a kid anyway? Either way this is a fun fact but I think there won't be many supporters as it is too crazy to invest into ICO's like this, making big claims despite it being hard to do for the developer, unless an elderly with knowledge is guiding him to success. For now, let's see what the kid can do, who knows? He might pull it off and if not, it is still fun to watch as he struggle to get investors to invest into his ICO. |
