We see that ripple today has been dropped a lot, seems that all those that have recently purchased ripple are covering their lost, but I think that today (Japan time) ripple will be listed in an exchange with over 27 million users which can purchase/trade bitcoin immediately. I'm hoping that the ripple price will be increased today so this is top1 at the moment to invest, then it comes Ethereum which is increasing gradually and slowly but stable.

Not only in bitcoin but it is not preferred to invest and hold the funds only to a cryptocoin or to a pleace 100%, what i prefer more is to split the funds into more than one piece and invest in bitcoin and altcoin. Dont put all egs in one basket. Investing 100% in a single coin is risky, you may lose a lot or you may earn a lot, what people are doing are investing in bitcoin as it's easier to buy and then exchanging to other altcoins that are much cheaper!

I'm surprised that coinmarketcap alone can "manipulate" the market so easily and those that are new into crypto think that they have lost lots of money and to "cover the loss" they are forced to selll their coins which causes a dump and a perfect situation for big fishes to buy. This remembers me when a big fish dumped his coins until to 1 satoshi and then started buying from 1 satoshi and up making him a huge profit and making a panic to the public to sell their coins to cover the losses.

Not sure if it worth if the clients have to pay the fees which can become 10-50x coffe. I'm not aware of the prices but i would charge 0.00007-0.00015BTC
There are some exception in this way, for example if the merchant and the client have the same wallet type (Xapo-Xapo or Coinbase-coinbase or any other similar service) then there are no fees on transactions and there is not needed any confirmation time for this as it is instant, less worries and pretty happy.

Is the registration for beta testing still open?

Edit: just got registered


I took the survey and the questions were in topic and realistic, I'm excited to become a beta tester and wish all the best to Upcoin exchange.

Here is a simple calculation of the $500 reward:
$500 is equal to 0.03425 BTC which means that you have to trade around 34BTC with 0% fee (if the normal fee for other users is 0.1%)

GPU or Asics mining consume energy a lot so the government somehow will notice when a neighborhood is consuming additional +KWh more than before (except the small tolerating on the digits). I even saw the map where is clearly specifies that in where countries are the gpu mining more frequented to mine, with all other stats, how many KWh are in average spending for mining and many other stuff. At one side it is true the bitcoin is consuming too much power and the future of cryptocurriencies should not be mining but some other lighter ways.

APPC is listed in binance!!!
Why the coinmarketcap hasn't listed appcoins in their website yet is because they haven't seen any high volume of trading on this coin, I highly believe that once the community and the traders start trading APPC then coinmarket will list this coin in their website and we will see an increase of trading volume as people like to join and invest in new coins because they see a high potential to be richer within a short period of time. I've been checked the price of APPCoin and the price changed very very fast with high pump and dumps which is very risky to invest at this stage.

Binance today has started accepting new users -> "Re-opens Limited User Registrations and Adjusts Referral Program Terms"
I would highly recommend to use Binance rather than HitBtc, hitbtc is having lots of issues with their users and people are waiting for days for their withdrawal request to be processes even though they pay $70 in fees or more (as they increased the fees recently way too much), unfortunately I have moved the funds before happening this drama but I left a small amount there after receiving distributed super btc which I exchanged to bitcoin. In binance you have more coins and more space to trade and the withdrawal limit is 2BTC within 24 hours which is perfect.

I never thought that DogeCoin would survive so long even though there is a good community, cheap price af and happy people who are using it.

You mean South Korean (not North Korea) as it is a very dangerous country and not anyone is allowed to enter their country.
Reading some tweets from many people that have a high influence to the audience I've seen that coinmarket cap has removed some exchanges from their "calculator" to determine the price of a coin. Currently the price of bitcoin in south korea is 23.3k while in usa it is $15k, we see a differnce of 8k per bitcoin, I would really see if someone is doing this by traveling there and selling the bitcoins for cash then exchanging these to usd.

I received automatically BCD, BCX, SBTC in binance even though the amount was very low but this was an automated thing that happened from the binance side and I was suprised when I saw these coins on myAccount.html site. Same happened in hitbtc too, received super bitcoin too.
Can I suggest you to keep up to date the first post so people can refer to this post to know which coins they can claim for free from the forks that happened and optionally telling how and where to claim which I learned right not using the bither app which I'm going to check in few hours.

They are expecting to continue in March 2nd, with the same rule as they was in November, but this can be canceled if things doesn't go well and depending on their performance of distributing.


It was also before the same price of $800 and I remember when the price hit almost $1000, but then after few months it went to $100s which was really a disappointing situation and a panic selling as almost -90% was the change within a short period of time.

Byteball is really a good coin which a huge potential but we don't see any marketing from their side, and they are only listed in bittrex which is having lots of issues with the support and their users are claiming that their accounts are getting disabled or closed without any valid reason.

I've read more than one bad article about the Tron coin and for its founder or the CEO which seems a young coin but with a good potential, I've read that they are going to have many partnership with many companies but don't know how much true is this. Reading the CEO's tweets he was very optimistic that the TRON will be in the top10 in 2018 and we have seen this in the first days of the current year which is a huge success for the TRON and the TronFoundation, what I don't like are the team behind all chinese.

Since there are 100k+ users then this is risky, because how I think this scheme works is that there are a small group of people that are leading this, what do they do is buy a coin, then post the message that it is a good coin to invest, so the price gets pumped, then they sell at this price by getting a high profit, then they start dumping the price and the last people who "joined lately" this train will get damaged by buying this overpriced coin.

Yeah holding more will give you more than 500% profit in coming days because prices are now in rising state and no body know how far they will go till the end of this year and you right that everyone has his own analysis and everyone has his own aims to achieve and buying is totally depending on the investor if you have enough capital then invest in now otherwise gather some more because prices will be grow higher.

How do you say that it will not reach to the 20k before Christmas, currently prices are at 18.69k and this shows that price will go above 20k soon and maybe in couple of days and those who are waiting for the 20k to sell their coins will soon get their parts and next aim of bitcoin will be ending at 25k+ at the end of this year to give 2k18 a huge start to carry on bitcoin rise occurs in small time and soon you will see 20k on board.

Yes, that’s a wise decision because if we really want to be successful in life, we need to change with time and accept the changes wholeheartedly for instance as this question is choosing between gold and bitcoin, all wise men and experts are going to vote for bitcoin.

The reason is very clear because it is the latest market trend. Gold cannot meet the desires and needs of people living in this era of technology.

Developing and underdeveloped countries are having many problems in their education sectors. There are many people who are studying in developed countries for higher education of good quality who basically belong to these countries.

Due to lack of quality education, they do suffer for good jobs in their practical life. Under such circumstances, bitcoin is indeed a light of hope for them about earning their livelihoods.
