341  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Using crypto to help the homeless - (for real - with pics!) on: May 06, 2019, 11:53:19 AM
I respect you a great deal for helping the homeless. Many people make false assumptions about them all being drug addicts with mental illness.  The best thing you could do is give them straight cash instead of handing out items/food that they may not want.

Even though Binance is one of the most trusted exchanges you should never leave coins on any exchange unless you plan to do day trading.  We have seen too many exchanges exit scam with customers coins already.

Its really scary, everyone is now using gmail, google chrome, and youtube.  I try to avoid using any google service but sometimes its really difficult not to.

I would not trust them, same thing with Facebook.  They will permanently store your data and sell it to the highest bidder.  They are also working with the US government no doubt.

Inside trading is rampant in crypto, small timers never stood a chance.  Those insider whales are the only people pulling in consistent profits that they can live off of.
345  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still bother to engage non Bitcoiners? on: May 05, 2019, 02:55:25 PM
I'd rather not, I don't want to be at fault if bitcoin crashes and they lose money.  Money can really screw up relationships, its better to let them decide on their own.

I've debated with a few people that were against bitcoin and they did raise a lot of fair points.  Crypto really isn't ready to replace cash anytime soon.

Remember sunk cost fallacy, just because you invested money into something doesn't mean it will recover.  Many of these altcoins are going to die and never recover.  There are thousands of coins, only a few of the top ones will live on.
347  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Too many exchanges? on: May 04, 2019, 03:18:46 PM
A lot of exchanges are faking volume and trading data to attract more customers.  Don't believe all those buy orders you see for a particular coin because they could be completely fake.

I prefer to do peer2peer trading when possible and cut out exchanges entirely when I can.

I recently read a report that giving money to depressed people reduces the suicide rate.  What a shocker, who would of thought? Shocked Shocked

Shareholders only care about the bottom line, they don't care about their employees.  Look at those suicide net factories over in China, maybe they could of paid their workers more and worked them less hours instead.
349  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stop chasing the "next" bitcoin on: May 04, 2019, 03:11:12 PM
People who stopped chasing the next bitcoin missed out on altcoins that did over 100x return.  This will happen again and some of these new projects will wildly out perform bitcoin.  It is much easier to pump a low cap coin than it is to pump bitcoin. 
350  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New IEOs on Bibox. Shall we wait XXX? on: May 04, 2019, 03:07:09 PM
I don't trust these new IEOs, they serve no real purpose.  Its just the same thing as all those scammy ICOs but it has a different name.  Now the exchanges are the ones making backroom deals for money.
351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers running free on: May 04, 2019, 03:02:42 PM
Its just like the real world, most scammers don't get caught.  This isn't a problem exclusive to crypto.  There is only so much the authorities can do and they have limited resources.  If you are concerned about thieves running free, think about all the murderers roaming the streets.
352  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple (XRP) Price Holding Crucial Support & Likely To Bounce Back on: May 02, 2019, 03:24:15 PM
I don't even like xrp because of fundamental reasons but on the ta point of view i have collected a bag, because it have a lot of potential to grow on btc pair.

I'm against ripple because of how centralized it is, but your right, doesn't mean you can't make a profit from it.  Ripple will pump again, its just a matter of time.  I won't be surprised if it has higher gains than bitcoin during this next bull run.  Going back to 3 dollars is an easy 10x return.
353  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Grin Observer - GRN/BTC - Price Movement and Discussion on: May 02, 2019, 03:19:55 PM
If anyone still hasn't sold, I feel sorry for you.  The price will keep crashing and don't be surprised if it breaks 20k satoshi within a short period of time.  Miners are dumping  immediately, they are not holding like bitcoin miners are.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: There should be a wikipedia page of casinos that accept bitcoin on: May 01, 2019, 03:17:41 PM
You can always start your own wiki if you don't have permission to add to the Bitcoin Wiki.  I don't have an issue adding a casino list to it since they have no problem listing bitcoin exchanges.
355  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: eBay sellers on: May 01, 2019, 03:04:24 PM
They are heavily breaking the rules of ebay.  They are just using ebay as an advertising platform.  Never trust anyone that is only willing to accept a payment method that can't be refunded.

The seller is actually really stupid, he has other expensive items on his store that say absolutely nothing about crypto.  Makes no sense and he is likely a scammer.
356  Economy / Economics / Re: Can you share Bitcoin percentage in your portfolio? on: May 01, 2019, 02:41:39 PM
In the long term, I think it is worth investing only in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Investment in the first coin, because it is unconditionally the market leader and the most reliable digital asset. The second coin has promising development prospects, which is indicated by its relevance in the market for alternative cryptocurrencies and tokens. Thus, 50% of Bitcoins in the investment portfolio is the minimum necessary.

I agree with you for the most part but I would keep a small percentage to gamble on low cap coins.  Notice I say gamble because how risky it is investing in new coins.  I wouldn't use more than 10 percent of your total crypto funds.
357  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this a good idea? on: May 01, 2019, 02:35:04 PM
The t shirt business is over saturated and the profit margins are quite small.  I don't think it is a business worth going to.  The only real positive is that you can start it with very little capital.  If you have a small budget and determination I say go for it but don't expect to make a fortune.
358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test this strategy and win! check this out on: May 01, 2019, 02:31:15 PM
There are no guaranteed strategies that work in gambling, don't be fooled.  If anything like this was possible we wouldn't still have casinos in business.  
359  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How do you imagine ideal society? on: April 30, 2019, 02:27:01 PM
Ideal society would be that everyone has their basic needs met. 

-free housing
-free food
-free school
-free healthcare

Its disturbing that America has more vacant houses than homeless people.  Its a very big problem when there are investors buying multiple homes just to let them sit empty.  I don't believe the free market should be involved with something that you need to live.
360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Possible scenario when all Bitcoin is completely mined. on: April 30, 2019, 02:20:24 PM
This kind of topic discussed many times but again I can answer it very well. When all bitcoin supply already mined the value of it will increase because people will need it. In short, the demand for bitcoin will increase along with the value of it though it will be very impossible right now because bitcoin has a lot of supply.

Whats stopping altcoins from taking a larger share of the crypto market?  If miners deem the btc rewards to be too low they will switch to other coins and leave btc vulnerable.  Altcoins can serve the same functions as bitcoin but have lower fees and do a better job of scaling.
