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.

Looking at the responses, I think most reacted/responded to the title without actually reading the post and watching the video. LOL

The optimistic projection I've seen/read the most for 2018 is $30,000

I think you people tilt on purpose... you post about altcoins in bitcon discussion. But here now you post about bitcoin in altcoin speculation! ! Why!?!?!!
Btw, btc is probably crashing back down to 6k before rallying again
Because they are connected... and I agree with you about BTC possibly sipping down around 6k

I am waiting for it to get to $6-$7k to purchase....so down. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

There may be similarities but in terms of where cryptocurrencies and bitcoin stand right now there are little similarities. Crypto is becoming more established and so it's unlikely to go through such a long bear period. It was breaking out of it until recently, todays binance crisis won't help but will be forgotten in days.
My point is...everything up to this minute seem to match...including that breakout you are talking about. Again, I am also praying current trend breaks away from the 2014 trend. I think it's a waste of your mind to allow such thoughts. I think this is another correction of the market, soon everything will fall into place. It does matter to me since I plan on buying BTC. I hate FUD and this post is not geared towards that. It is cautionary and last I checked, historical fact does not fall under FUD. This 5 month match is just too much for me to ignore and might smack myself if BTC price does fall shortly. You're right that it's wise to look to the past, I just think that as I said previously, with the context being so different I think the two paths will diverge from one another fairly soon. Of course we could follow the exact path of 2014. I wasn't here in 2014 so it's hard to speak about the mood in the community at the time, any insight in to that would be interesting because that's what will decide how things pan out. Well to date still matching the 2014 pattern...BTC just touched $9,235 (at GDAX) and dropping. I am glad I held off my purchase.

I don't really care if Bitcoin will crash the same as it was in 2014 cause after the crash in 2014, Bitcoin is still alive until now and it's still the king of crypto world so I think if Bitcoin is going to crash this year, it'll come back with a new ATH price soon cause at the moment everything is different with 2014 so don't compare Bitcoin in 2018 with Bitcoin in 2014, it's not the same anymore.
As I said earlier, it matters to me since I am buying in. If it will fall, I'd rather buy the dip. Wouldn't you?

Dudes, just relax guys. This is not the end of crypto... We are just in a dip and bitcoin is in a healthy correction and it will recover sooner or later. It is a bad time to sell your coins, so hold!
WHO talked about end of Crypto? Only you mentioned it.

These new topics keep popping up, displaying new charts and graphs with analysis, and all are meaningless. Price of bitcoin is very volatile, right now price is going down now and maybe tomorrow it will go up again.
I agree but for them to match over 8 months... yes 8 MONTHS or so, it is hard to ignore.

I think if you think BTC will repeat 2014 crash then I will advice you sell all your BTC, 2014, BTC went from $1000 to $200 that is 80% loss of the value from the ATH, the BTC ATH was $20k and the current price is $10k, that is 50% from the ATH. So people should make their own decision on these figures
I am an altcoin guy so I hold very little BTC...which I did use yesterday to buy alts that dropped in price. ...in a way, I already did what you suggested. I buy BTC so I can buy alts.

Shit thread share the negativity about the bitcoin. In 2014 very few people only invested on cryptocurrencies. There is no ICOs at that time. I do not understand from which planet from you guys are coming. You know that this kind of news great bad impact but you written like you are pray for good deed happen in future. If possible lock this thread and do not create any fake news thread more. OTHERS DO NOT BUMP THESE OF SPAMYARD THREADS. Guess what? You just did. LOL If history can help us AVOID same mistake... why not learn from it? Watching BTC dip down to $9,450 at GDAX right now...

vechain will be the best once thor is active
I am waiting for this as well. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I hope setting the wallet won't be difficult. I haven't dealt with Tor before also.

Any best staking coin like NEO than I can stake to earn reward.
Must be cheap under $1. Neo was also cheap in March 2017.
At the present Bitconnect is cheapest coin. Because the current value is 2.15 USD but highest past value is more than 400 USD. So this is the right coin in current situation this will reach more 400 USD also possible this year end. At the same time NEO is good growing technology but most of the investors are looking cheap coins so BCC is beat the NEO in this year end. You should be ashamed of yourself really, shilling a coin that was proven to be a scam. Agreed...BCC is basically a dying (if not yet dead) coin. The only reason it rose in value is because many mistaken it to BitCoin Cash (BCH).

I believe the biggest gains will be on NEO, ICX and ARK...and I did put my money on these (not just talk).
This doesn't mean they will topple ETH though.
