3021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stake or nitrogen my point of view on: November 30, 2020, 04:58:03 AM
This is a well known fact. Stake is developed in such cases a way to attract all levels of gamblers. Nitrogen is good for the sports betting where you get access to pay with cryptocurrencies and other means of payment. Stake provides good rakeback for the high rollers which is something very impressive. Stake is developed after the popular primedice, which means they've well known and understood the user requirements and developed stake.com
Yeah, stake knows how to engage their gamblers by sending them bonuses from time to time like recently they sent out Post monthly bonus which was unexpected and they have a stream setup with Edward where he doesn't just entertain users with his game but also give out lots of free money to users.

I have played at nitrogen earlier and were decent but the engagement was never there, I mean I never felt like attached to the site although I had good friends in the chat but the site never made efforts to engage their users by sending time to time bonuses or at least some stream where we can get get to know the owners better.
3022  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will there be a massive BTC dump? on: November 29, 2020, 04:09:24 PM
People are really mistaking "massive" and "correction" and that is really funny to me. We have moved literally 100% higher in few months and you think just 10% fall would really destroy all of this? There is no way that this could be something called massive. Let me tell you what massive is, last time bitcoin hit $20k, it dropped as much as $3k at the bottom which is really a "massive" dump, that is what you should be focusing on when you are talking about it.

However when you are talking about just a 10% fall, that is not a massive dump, it is just a correction and there is really no need to get afraid of whats going to happen, you could potentially just focus on the future and do not worry about the current situation because we are not going to suddenly see a big fall again.
3023  Economy / Speculation / Re: who believes that the price of BTC high next month? on: November 29, 2020, 03:11:44 PM
Will the bitcoin really go up to  25,000 dollars next month? As far as I've read and know the Btc information. As far as i'm I think the Bitcoin price will go up to  22,000$. what is your opinion?
Lmao, why do people like assuming that price will go up when they are not very sure about it? Once you all start seeing that the price is going up you start randomly predicting high numbers.

Well, you should check the BTC now it is down to around $17,000, and we don’t know at what price we will be seeing it next. Before you write posts likes this, first do your own research, do good analysis to backup your claims, and not just come here and say that price will go up when you can’t even prove it if you’re told to do so. Anyway, let’s just wait for December and see what will happen then whether the price will turn back up or not.
3024  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Rumours that Bitcoin was created in Russia on: November 29, 2020, 08:32:03 AM
There is rumours the btc created in russia.
First btc and cryptocurrency related websites ip addreses was in russia.
The Dan pena world billionaire said Putin is behind Bitcoin.

If its true who might be behind the Putin on this?
Which rumours, where did you hear or see such a rumour that Bitcoin was created in Russia?
If you saw it on a website then it would have been best that you linked that website so that we will also be able to check and see the kind of proof they have to backup their claims.

I do not know why people do not want to rest on this case of finding out who Satoshi Nakamoto actually is, let’s just accept the fact that we don’t know who he is and let this case rest once and for all because I am tired of all these theories. That aside, who or where Bitcoin was created doesn’t really matter anymore since it’s decentralized.

You can't apply this to those bounty hunters that are joining even if they've already seen some red flags with a bounty. There's no bounty, there's no good manager, there's no potential good result for the project.
All of those can't be understood by them especially if it displays a huge pool of reward.
Yes like never work with a bounty that has no escrow planned or at least should have a recognized campaign manager if none of them exist then do not work for them, as simple as that.

If you focused on tiger in forest and you got a deer as a gift. While comparing tiger, deer is not a better option. But something is always better than something. The hunters should move to new project to get more money
But, if you spent weeks hunting a tiger and end up getting nothing then how would you feel? That's the problem right now because there are so many bounty that promise big rewards but end up paying nothing. I would understand the rewards are smaller than expectations but I would never settle for no rewards just because I did not spent any money. We spend our time and efforts which is not less than money so we deserve the rewards.
3026  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is owned! on: November 28, 2020, 07:01:00 PM
What’s happening? Well, Bitcoin’s price is getting dumped. And it’s nothing new, it happens every year; the price gets pumped and dumped. This morning it was $17,100 and just this evening it’s already down to $16,500. The same way it was getting pumped is the same way it’s getting dumped. The price went up real quick, I was surprised that we are already close to $20,000 so soon and I felt there might be a correction coming, and that’s what has happened now.

If by December the price doesn’t recover but keeps going down, then I think we will have to wait till December next year to see a price as high? Funny thing was that there were people saying that Bitcoin price will reach $387,000 by May lmfao.
3027  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What should I study to learn how to trade? on: November 28, 2020, 01:33:55 PM
Basic technical learning must be known before starting to enter trades, especially crypto that fluctuates highly. There are many traders who until now didn't use the technique at all because they didn't learn it since they started trading.
They might be in profit still while people who analyze market and use the best charts and tools might still be in loss and that is because of the nature of Bitcoins and price that follows. I have seen guys who along with whole market say the price is going to go down but it rises so honestly speaking I often think when trading in the crypto market you are more gambling than actually trading. It might sound harsh but that's the truth.

I would rather suggest to have immaculate patience when price goes under the rock if you are trying to trade or if you are looking to invest then just do not get afraid of the daily price changes.

These market strategies, guides and everything might look good from outside but as someone who has tried everything, I can really tell you that none of these help much, market movement is really random and unexpected.
3028  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When will the current Bull run stop on: November 27, 2020, 03:32:42 PM
I must honest to say,you definitely are a wise man.At the beginning of BULL you are already considering its end. To be prepared for a rainy day.
But what time is the end?I bet nobody knows,i deem the safest method is to sell all the coins or convert them into BTC.
I like the comparison of rainy day with bull-run because both are uncertain and you don't know if the rain is about to stop or is going to continue.

If that is certain, how could anyone want to buy bitcoin when it reaches $20k, but there are exceptions if the rich will still buy it. For now it's better to focus on increasing the amount of bitcoins before it's too late.
Th funny thing is that you might regret buying at 12k if it drops now while you might applaud buying at 20k if the prices continues going higher and higher so the decision you take can make you look like a fool or incredible based on how the market moves next.

If I was asked to make a decision, I would wait a while before investing more because the bull run might be over soon and a small drop is bound to happen once it ends.
3029  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You can't always hit the right target on: November 27, 2020, 02:47:03 PM
This is the hardest part about airdrops and bounties, it takes few tries to get it working and that seems to be the problem with them. Think about it, we are talking about something that is "free money" at its core, yeah sure you did shared it on twitter and retweeted, and yes you did wrote a 500 word article, or maybe wore the signature, but the thing is if every single one of them made you money, the market would had the highest inflation in the world.

There is not enough money in crypto to go around to each and every project, some projects will not get the interest of the people and it will look to be small and not succeed, as long as you do not get the attention of the investors, no matter how much token you distribute it will not be enough for marketing.
3030  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is it a good time to get in or not on: November 26, 2020, 06:42:18 AM
Now, it is so ambiguous whether this run will end soon or not. If this is a bull run, then I think the price can reach 25k dollars minimum. If this run ends soon, I think the price can go down sharply after that.
This is the same problem we all face when a bull-run is going on because we feel and know that we missed the best chance to invest but now as the market is going up daily we don't know if investing now is the right option since the market has grown so such already and there is no way to know when it is going to stop or slow down.

If you are looking to get profits in short term then maybe you should wait for at least a small drop but if you are investing for long term then even 30k is a good price to grab some.
3031  Economy / Economics / Re: Is corona virus crisis changing economical equations around the world? on: November 25, 2020, 04:52:13 PM
Some major countries are facing crisis created by corona virus, meanwhile few others have controlled it successfully. Can this pandemic change economical and political status of countries?
Before a lot of people have been talking about a looming recession, but what we didn’t know was that it was going to come with a virus as bad as this that’s going to make everything even more worse. It would have been better if people could at least go to their workplaces and work to make earnings, but as for this one they had to be at home locked up and managing the little ones they have.

So, this situation really had a huge impact on our economy, but I think a good government will know what best to do which is supporting the people, and also making things easy.
3032  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Real purpose of Bitcoin on: November 25, 2020, 12:59:59 PM
When you talk about Bitcoin first thing which most of us thinks either it's a get rich quick scheme or an investment scheme. Did Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin as an investment scheme? No, it was supposed to be a peer to peer payment transaction across borders without involvement expensive money exchangers or regulators but it has been turned into an investment scheme, where are we heading ? Do you think Bitcoin is losing its original purpose of its invention?
Bitcoin didn’t lose its main purpose, rather the more was added to it. That others are using it for investment doesn’t mean that you’re also going to be using it for investment, it’s meant for you to decide.

I have been using bitcoins for years, despite that a lot of people were mainly investing in it I never did that, I was just using to receive money and that’s still my main purpose for using it till now, I just invest a little which I started doing newly. Back then every amount that goes into my wallet doesn’t stay more than an hour before I convert it to fiat.
3033  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which is the secret to success in trading? on: November 25, 2020, 11:58:44 AM
sometimes when I speak to people that have begun their journey as traders they tell me about all the indicators and strategies that they use and when I take a look at their charts it is a complete mess, it doesn't matter how smart you are no one is going to be able to understand what is going on in that chart, for the most part you only need three or four indicators to be able to become a competent trader, but obviously this is only true if you know how to use them.
These indicators might work well in the regular stocks market and currency trading but when it comes to crypto market thing are not as simple because I have seen some of the best in the trading market being dumbfounded by the market movements and so I think there is literally no way one can predict the prices movement correctly.

I mean if there was someone who can actually do that they would be billionaire by now so everyone reaching the charts and everything are just speculating and no one can predict the actual price or bear/bull run of Bitcoins.
3034  Economy / Speculation / Re: Congrats to everyone for reaching $20k again. on: November 25, 2020, 07:01:13 AM
The one main thing that makes me very optimistic about 20k is the fact that for two times in a row now we have went down and recovered very easily. Think about it, I guess it was around 17k or so levels where we were hanging out trying to go higher, it dropped under 17k and after that it recovered over 17k and even went above 18k as you can see.

Now same thing happened with 18k where price went under 18k and recovered over it as well. So, that tells me next stop could be over 19k very soon, and after that it could drop under 19k and recover over 19k and try to beat 20k this time around. This is obviously a pattern and just because it happened twice doesn't mean it will keep happening all the time neither, but if it does repeat that is the road map we have in front of us.
Finally bitcoin could drop eventually, we are aware of that and everyone knows that there is no way that bitcoin could continue to go up without interruption forever. However we are also aware that it may not be right now, I understand that there are tons of people who are afraid of the fact that bitcoin could drop tomorrow and could worth something very tiny, like maybe half of right now, and I am not saying it is impossible.

All I am saying is, maybe we will continue to grow until $25k or even $30k? We can still drop, but why think that drop will be right away instead of thinking drop could be after we reach $25k? We could go to $25k from here and drop to 10k after that, which I think is quite possible. This is why I suggest people to put like 20% drop stop loss and keep buying.
3035  Economy / Economics / Re: Still confused why bitcoin is so bullish? on: November 25, 2020, 05:12:49 AM
Pandemic has good effect in bitcoin price. Almost all people are transacting online because of lockdown. People who also lost their jobs because of pandemic look for an alternative earning online and bitcoin (crypto industry) have always an open opportunity for all. No wonder why there are some who take advantage in learning bitcoin and trading because it is profitable. That's why even there is a pandemic, we assume that crypto trading is much worthy than stocks.
I don't think that is correct because pandemic caused a massive drop in March-April when the virus was actually at its most deadly stage. Yes transactions shifted to online but not all online transactions are in crypto because there are local apps and platforms like paypal. Yes we have new traders and investors but actually the overall impact on crypto from pandemic was negative and just because the price is rising doesn't mean pandemic is to be credited for it.

bitcoin halving and paypal huge announcements triggered the market players. It is really a big catalyst or the market. It pushes the buyers to trade bitcoin. Right now, we don't know if it will surpass its ath level in the coming weeks. But I am pretty sure that bitcoin can do it.
Halving helps but it happened in May and the jump in price is happening now so halving is not the biggest reason although I agree with you that the paypal move actually helped a lot and I read somewhere that paypal bought 70% of the newly mined coins, not sure of its true though.
3036  Economy / Economics / Re: I tried money making apps! on: November 24, 2020, 06:44:04 PM
Money-making applications only work if the person using it is dedicated and committed into playing with it, if the person is like me who wants easy money however, we'll have a problem because that is basically the complete opposite of the earning method with these apps, time and effort. And even when they do pay its not that big than a regular job, so do these at your own pace and risk.
Right because these apps can be good if you are looking at them as an extra source of income instead of the main source and don't be dependent on these apps for money. It is more like pocket money for students and actually most of these apps are not even paying good enough for pocket money because like the survey apps you will struggle to complete even 1 survey a day.

There are way better apps actually and yes some of the apps like swagbucks are good and I have heard from others but others are really new and low paying. One can earn better money by playing games and selling those accounts instead because there are games where you can accumulate skins and coins which then you can trade with others.
3037  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: We need more bubbalexs and Hhampuzs in this space on: November 24, 2020, 06:14:35 PM
I don't know Bubbalex in person but I know him in managing some real potential and profitable bounties. Whether you believe me or not he managed DIA, although the bounty allocation decrease due to the team decision and not his. However, if you look at DIA now it is $1.7 good enough for hunters who had 400 pieces of tokens by one month work. Agree, we need him who is a real manager with compassion and understanding to his community. He is not hot tempered. He is not judgmental. He is good manager and trust worthy.
Yeah, we need more guys like them and actually there are managers who crush bounty hunters and work for the project while some like mentioned in this thread actually keep a good balance and both bounty hunters and project owners are satisfied.

Well it depends on the people if they want to participate or not but i agree that even lower ranks must be given a chance to prove themselves that they are trustworthy.
The current setup is, low ranked members get a chance in small and less paying campaigns and with time as they gain experience and understand how forum works and rank up they get better campaigns and I think this is the right way of doing it. I know not all the junior members and lower ranked members are spammers but as they rank up with time they do find better projects to advertise and get paid higher.
3038  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How can one make effective use of the Excrow? on: November 24, 2020, 04:03:53 PM
OP is having problems and troubled by escrowed funds held by third parties such as bounty managers because the owners of the token themselves change the smart contracts of their own tokens. That means previous tokens are becoming useless and worthless. So it somehow makes the use of escrow useless as well.
That is indeed a curious case and important question and I guess the only possible answer is by providing the escrow with equal amount in USDT or some other stable coin such that in case the escrowed tokens are taken back by fancy changes in the smart contract they can at least pay the bounty hunters in USDT and compensate for the loss.

Is there any case of such happening? I haven't seen this happen anywhere but this is a good question and want to see if this ever happened and more importantly how it was tacked if it happened in past. Please share the link for any campaign where this took place if you know any of them.
3039  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do not trade Alts with BTC these days, You will just lose on: November 24, 2020, 03:05:39 PM
The market is now for bitcoin, same as this there'll be market for altcoins. We don't know which is the ath value of bitcoin for this times bullish trend. We're supposed to make our prediction and go choose the trading. Most of the time once after reaching ath it undergoes correction. During those correction there'll be slight fluctuation and then grows again. That's the right time to trade bitcoin for altcoins.
Actually altcoins are doing pretty good, not all but some of the alts like XRP has gained some serious bull run and there is TRX which is slowly starting to lift so now as the BTC market stablized the other markets are on a swing now. I hope bitcoin just doesn't fall now like 2017 because a drop here can really make things worst not just for the BTC market but altcoin market as well.

In the first place, we have no right to stop others to trade altcoins when Bitcoin is in the period of bull run dude.
Correct we cannot stop anyone from doing anything they want, but would you not stop someone who is trying to suicide? Well, I will at least stop that and similarly OP has a valid point because BTC market is going up so the best option is to invest in BTC and avoid trading altcoins for the time being.
3040  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading mistakes on: November 24, 2020, 09:05:48 AM
For me, traders became prone to mistakes because of being greedy.
they are just doing what they want without further analysis, and wanting huge profit instantly in just one click.
but mistakes is just a part of our lives, remember! you will also learn from mistakes once you experienced it.
Greediness is one reason behind the failure of a trader but it is not the only factor and neither the biggest one. There are times when traders do their best and still lose and they even put sell orders on minimum profits but the market just crashes and there is no way to recover. I feel like many traders fail to adjust with the market fluctuations and because the volatility is so high it is hard to take decisions because the amount of time you get to take decisions is less.

Making mistakes like showing greed when you should have sold the coins is fine because you learn from those mistakes but if you are making mistakes fundamentally then it becomes a problem like not having the patience needed at times and not using the features like stop loss which are made to avoid big losses.
