3441  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is that when the bitcoin price goes down, so as the other coin and token? on: March 19, 2018, 09:04:39 AM
This is market sentiment. This even happens in stock market if you observe it. But it is higher in cryptos as crypto are more closely related to each other sharing popular currencies as BTC and ETH as exchanging pair.
3442  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO legal structures: non-profit foundations on: March 19, 2018, 08:59:44 AM
Well they are copying the Bitcoin Foundation and all of them are not necessarily the specific group for that coin. Bitcoin and Ethereum Foundation do have influential people but they don't represent the whole community and are here mostly for the promotion of coins they hold for their own profit.
3443  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why ETH dropped comparing to BTC? on: March 19, 2018, 08:48:32 AM
It has been recorded for quite a time when there is a huge depression in crypto price, there is a general increase in dominance of bitcoin.
If you view the price of others coin as well, you can see they've relatively decreased with respect to bitcoin.
And similar is the case for increase. Altcoins increases at a greater rate than bitcoin.
3444  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin mining is banned due to its great demand for electricity on: March 19, 2018, 08:44:47 AM
This can be true and reasonable for most of the countries where electricity is costly. Mining with advanced hardware has became a energy consuming industry and with such scarce of energy in the world, we cannot sustain a number of energy hungry currencies.
3445  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Needless of Call for Cryptocurrency Regulation on: March 19, 2018, 08:41:03 AM
As cryptocurrency enters the subject of discussion in G20 summit, it gets a global attention. Authorities concern about the use of it is legit interest and should be addressed in an effective way. Normal users won't be affected by regulations.
3446  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Hello. I am new here but invested in BTC since 2010 on: March 12, 2018, 12:22:17 PM
The amount provided in such airdrop are generally low and are intended for advertising purpose or building up the community.
Giving up free money would attract a huge attention to their project and probably bring investors.

Here's a good reasoning from the site airdropalert.com
Quote
Why would blockchain projects give away free tokens?

If you're not paying for the product, you are the product. With doing an airdrop the project creates awareness about their ICO or token. It brings people to the project that otherwise would not have owned or heard about it. It could lead to token price appreciation, since people value a token they own higher than a token they don't own. This is called the endowment effect.

Airdrops create a community/network of people who own the tokens. If you would list the token distribution after an ICO in a pie graph, a large part of the pie is still owned by the Dev's or project. Another large part is owned by people who joined a pre-sale. And a reasonable part is owned by people who invested in the ICO. An airdrop adds an extra slice to the pie and that slice will have the most people in it.

An airdrop also plants a seed. When you look at Coinmarketcap you will see a list of thousand coins. Just on page one you can see 100 coins listed. However if you have or had a coin that name is still in your brain. The seed is planted and whenever you check Coinmarketcap and scroll down, the name of the free e-Coin will jump out and people will check how it is doing. If they see an article that the free e-Token is doing well or bad, they are more likely to click it if they own it or previously have owned it. It's just like advertising!

Looking​ ​forward,​ ​possible​ crypto ​airdrop​ ​developments​ ​could​ ​be​ ​projects​ ​starting​ ​to​ ​gift​ ​tokens​ ​to​ ​users​ ​who hold​ ​tokens​ ​in​ ​projects​ ​that​ ​overlap​ ​or​ ​have​ ​some​ ​synergy​ ​with​ ​their​ ​own.​ ​We​ ​could​ ​also​ ​see​ ​projects encouraging​ ​other​ ​projects​ ​to​ ​airdrop​ ​to​ ​their​ ​token​ ​owners​ ​and​ ​receiving​ ​some​ ​benefit​ ​in​ ​return. Like we already see happening at the Ethereum, Waves, NXT & Komodo platforms.

They are just making the claims of More than 1,000,000 transactions per second, with future scalability to 10,000,000 per second but as their blockchain in not released to public yet, it's too early to predict about it and it's price. They have announced a beta product within this month.
3448  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin list on: March 12, 2018, 12:09:10 PM
News sites like Coindesk, cointelegraph, websites like cryptocompare and coingecko, popular twitter handles of them, different altcoins are my prime place to get information beside the forum.
3449  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin rise up criminality rate ?!!! on: March 12, 2018, 12:06:31 PM
BTC is just a tool and how you use it depends on yourself. If it were not BTC it could have been something else.
Yeah, it have raised the level of anonymity but again we can't ignore it's positive side.
3450  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Big budget versus Great idea. Who eventually wins? on: March 11, 2018, 12:05:52 AM
Big budget are generally good ideas. Great ideas if were not funded properly and driven systematically can be useless.
So, they are like low risk low gain and high risk high gain projects.
3451  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can this overtake Binance? on: March 10, 2018, 11:43:09 PM
Never invest in anything that starts telling you what price their own token will be in the future. That's a rule of mine and I'm going to stick to it.

These tactics are just used to target uninformed investors who are lured in by the promise of great returns. Instead build a great product and let that do the talking and the price will follow.

But how many Trading Exchange platform + Token (ICO) have failed? I don't think I know any name. So, it is in a way very SAFE bet. My actual thing was completely sure that this is a WORTHY investment, but I wanted to know whether it could actually match up or cross Binance. So, I am clear on ONE PONT, but I just liked to know views of experience head how far it could go.



There are quite a lot failed exchanges that has gone through ICO, some haven't started their service for years while some have the platform but no users. Exchange sector has gone through tough competition and only that evolves with time are going to stay.
3452  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: GCR, PDC AND CLUBCOIN BEING DELISTED ON A POPULAR US EXCHANGE, WHY? on: March 10, 2018, 02:08:58 AM
Delisting is done in two cases.
1. Dead coin. Wallet not being synced.
2. Low volume. Not meeting the volume defined by the exchange.

3455  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does altcoin strategically and indirectly promote bitcoin price? on: March 06, 2018, 11:07:13 PM
Though there are relations like buying bitcoin for buying and altcoin and sentimental moves on the market, there are no clear answer to it.
ETH is the favorite coin for ICO. You can now directly buy altcoins from fiat in many parts of the world and ETC and BCH are gaining as base currency.
3456  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Has Ripple's XRP token reached its peak gain? Will it crash if no Coinbase add? on: March 05, 2018, 05:38:19 PM
Coinbase listing is an old rumor. The recent rise may probably be related to partnership ripple is making. If it goes as it, coinbase listing would not be a wonder anytime soon.
3457  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lol.. **ANOTHER** Litcoin Cash (LTCH) -- this one's an ICO (Obvious Scam) on: March 03, 2018, 12:26:23 PM

It's a paid article. But cointelegraph being a reputed name in crypto world should at least filter what they are advertising. It's clearly a cheap approach to scam novice investors. Litecoin cash a ERC20 token a scam.
3458  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Near future crypto currency on: March 03, 2018, 06:45:41 AM
I'd rather call it the market maturation. Something that rises or falls x10 within a month can neither be considered a safe investment nor a payment option.
Cryptocurrency in last few years have increased in the form of a ponzi.
3459  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Alt Coins Have Completely Failed? on: March 03, 2018, 06:42:55 AM
Of the coins I met and traded above 100+ coins are already dead. Mostly due to dead nodes and no exchange.
With the diversification of a use of blockchain and coin, mineable coin whose price depends entirely on speculation are bound to be dead leaving just a few.
3460  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Two crypto exchanges stop trading because of the government in India on: March 02, 2018, 12:32:16 AM
This would make it harder for the indian population to exchange to and from fiat. Ultimately leading to being traded in black market.
Indian government have failed to embrace a technology moving leaps backwards.
