3561  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Minimizing the risk- How much possible it is? on: February 07, 2020, 10:08:05 PM
In fact, it seems to me that each trader can perceive in his own way the possibility of minimizing risk, since one trader can use only up to 5% of his asset for trading, so as not to risk large amounts of his funds.  Someone can study the charts of their coins more carefully in order to timely change their trading plans for other coins.  And this can also be called risk minimization.  In addition, an example is the procedure for converting any cryptocurrency asset to USDT during the fall of the cryptocurrency market.
Just reading charts won't help  a user to reduce risk and make quick profit. In fact, following the chart might cause more losses than profit. The charts always don't help since the prices of crypto currencies are unpredictable due to its volatility. The prices of altcoins are even more volatile than bitcoin. Any external event can have huge impact on the prices of crypto currency.
The only possible way to minimizing risk is to play safe by investing on well known coins and holding it for the long run.
3562  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: **TAKE YOUR COINS OFF EXCHANGES** on: February 07, 2020, 09:58:32 PM
Depends on an exchange and if you are trading with the altcoins then your wallet can’t afford to hold some of it and you will be force to left that on your exchange wallet. Use the best and top exchange at least you can have the guarantee to be more secure but if you are not active then you just want to hold bitcoin or eth, then its really advisable to transfer it on your own wallet. Its ok to put money on exchanges as a trader, but don’t hold too much on your exchange wallet.
This is where you are wrong. You are never forced to leave your coins on an exchange. I don't see any reason your wallets not being able to "afford" to hold some of your altcoins (I am assuming you are talking about multi currency wallets which itself aren't safe at all. Most of those multi currency wallet are online wallets which you should never be using!). You can always download the official wallet for that coin and store it over there.
Even "best" exchanges can't guarantee you 100% security! All exchanges are vulnerable to hacks.
3563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ETH] I was scammed on Youtube. What to do? on: February 07, 2020, 08:59:38 PM
Too bad you fell for this  Undecided. What ethereum employee are you talking about? Those are just some scammers posing as official "ethereum employee" (and they don't even exist in real life!) and scamming poor naive people like you! If this was a real giveaway, why would they ask you to send them the ETH first? If they really wanted to giveaway coins, they would just ask for your wallet address and send you free coins over there.
There is nothing much you can do sadly. Think of the amount you lost as a payment for this valuable lesson.
3564  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what happened to freedrop? on: February 07, 2020, 06:42:48 PM
Freedrop used to be my favourite platform for airdrops, I never knew bitcointalk forum then, I was able to make good money on freedrop.me but unfortunately it stop working, its a Korean based airdrop platform that carefully select rare airdrops, I joined metacoin, airwallet airdrop  and ironx on  there, I made 300$ from metacoin only, is there any good airdrop platform that have limited airdrop instead of many that arent always good
Based on how many shit airdrops take place, I guess they decided its took much work for them to track every airdrop. Was not worth their time for which they probably might have ended up shutting themselves down. You just got really luck with one of your airdrops. None of them have much of a value.
I would suggest you to stop hunting airdrops and invest your time somewhere else.
3565  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What if Ethereum replaces Bitcoin someday? on: February 06, 2020, 10:37:29 PM
Replace in terms of what? In terms of popularity and usage? In terms of market cap? In terms of price? Well if it does replace in any of these terms, then nothing really would happen. All these are just numbers and if ethereum manages to beat those numbers, then yeah we can say that ethereum is better than bitcoin. But that is highly likely to happen. Bitcoin has been on the market for ages and is well known to people through out the world. When someone says crypto currency, the first thing that comes to someones mind is "bitcoin". When someone thinks about investing on crypto currency, the first thing they think about is bitcoin. So I highly doubt this is going to happen.
3566  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: comparing Bitcoin to a new country's currency on: February 06, 2020, 09:22:21 PM
What do you mean by bitcoin developers change the new currency's issuance? You probably don't have proper understanding on how bitcoin works. If any changes take place in the protocol of the network, a fork takes place and two different coins are created. This does not mean that the developers issued a new currency.
You are probably thinking those peoples name you mentioned controls everything in the market which isn't true.
3567  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Using Crypto at Gas Stations on: February 06, 2020, 09:00:07 PM
In most growing countries we've got more and more online stores and local merchants accepting bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies into the business.

In third world countries the scenario is different with the level of cryptocurrency adoption. Maybe over the falling few years of time can expect tremendous growth of cryptocurrency usage in all means.

Petrol market is volatile, but that isn't as volatile as bitcoin. This way making cryptocurrency for gas is simply possible.
You are making it sound like it is really simple to accept bitcoin in a gas station. Since the price of bitcoin is really volatile, they will need to adjust the price from time to time which might end up becoming a nuisance. Look at the price now, it goes up and down by 2/3 percent every hour.
Using bitcoin for making those payments might cause even more problem. What if the confirmation time is taking long because of high network usage?
3568  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best trading platform? on: February 05, 2020, 10:42:11 PM
Lots of people suggesting different exchanges, but keep in mind, none of these exchanges are safe to use. Never store your coins on these exchange for long term. An exchange might get hacked anytime and you might lose your funds. No matter how much they boast that they are extremely secure, they are always at a risk. Also, you might loose access to your funds without any notice. How would you feel if you can't have access to your coins when you need it most just because the exchange is down?
3569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling: process vs outcome on: February 05, 2020, 10:39:31 PM
I've seen a guy asking for advice about lotteries and it got me thinking. I don't understand why people even like lotteries. You don't do much, most likely lose and have to wait for the outcome for a long time. Perhaps, people are interested in the possibility of winning, but that would mean they are not really into gambling as the process. So what is it for you, do you play only for the sake of winning or do you care about the process of playing/researching/anticipating the outcome? I think that the process is that is attractive in gambling, and while the outcome surely matters, I would not like to wait for a long while to learn it.
Probably people likes to play lottery because it is actually a slow paced games. Who said slow paced games are bad? It gives them more time to invest their money on those lottery tickets. They don't have to hurry and buy all tickets at once. They can buy whenever they want before the lottery round ends. Moreover, it gives people excitement. Even people who buys few tickets can anticipate a win.
I don't mind if the process of a game is slow or fast. As long as its fun to play, I am going to play it.
3570  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why most of ALTCOINS are dead or worthless? on: February 05, 2020, 10:34:08 PM
True. You answered your own question correctly. Most of the altcoins are worthless because they are just the clone of other coins. They serve no purpose or contributes nothing to the crypto currency market. They are just created by the developers and then the price are also pumped by those scam developers. Once the people see the price of that coin sky rocketing, they jump into investing on those coins. But, in the end the developers dump those coins and cashes out their profit. Thus large number of people suffer from losses, and that coin eventually dies with no value at all.
3571  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Money System Worked? on: February 05, 2020, 10:27:18 PM
Anyway, I'm going to talk about trade by barter because this could be the area you think or other people think too that favoured the masses. But trade by barter involves also be rich and wealthy in material, farm produce and landed properties to be able to exchange as much as you want or to have adequate purchasing power.
Further, during trade by barter, your ability to acquire more gives you an edge, therefore we also had people who were far above others in material wealth and otherwise including slavery or feudal system. So, I don't think trade by barter would be considered favourable.

My view is even that this digital age is working more and beneficial to almost everybody if you have a little knowledge or education to do just very little task from the computer, android or smart phones, ATM etc. I'm sure the level of education both formal lately is increasing, so many more people are having the opportunity to make money including digital, cryptocurrency, forex etc.
If barter system favored the masses, why doesn't that system exist anymore or can barely be seen? Barter system had its own drawbacks for which people had to come up with some other new transaction system that could be beneficial to all. During those time of barter system, it became hard to find people with mutual needs, like if someone needs. Again, you could measure the value fairly at all. All these problems led to creation of another system which also had flaws and this went on until today. We still have lots of flaws in this money based system which also needs to be fixed. Probably crypto currencies might be the solution, but then again, crypto currency themselves have lots of flaws.
3572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coins do you Hold ? on: February 05, 2020, 09:00:12 PM
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tezos, Matic, LTC, BitcoinCash, Bitcoindiamond, Lisk, Stratis, these are coins I'm holdings for any future market surge, but I basically focus more on bitcoin, I think altcoins will be in trouble until bitcoin drive them up with upcoming bullrun
Chances are the price of altcoins won't be rising much or will instead start falling when the price of bitcoin starts to rise up. This is because, as soon as the price of bitcoin starts to jump, people tend to sell off their altcoins and then join the bitcoin market. Thus this causes the price of altcoins to drop further. As the price of altcoin starts to drop, others holding those coins starts to panic and then sell off their investment too, causing further crash of the price. As the price of altcoin reaches its minimum, those who sold off their coins starts to buy back their coins at cheaper price, thus causing slow rise of altcoins again.
Don't rely on these bullrun when investing on crypto currencies. You have suggested some coins that are actually bad investment. You should reconsider your coins.
3573  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins Regularization in Different Countries on: February 05, 2020, 07:41:05 PM
Dear Community in 2020 How many chances of Bitcoins Regularization in Different Countries.
Bitcoin Has now more than 10 Years old. But in most of the countries it is still illegal.Due to Government Behaviour most
Exchanges and Projects are not allowing people to participate in the said Projects.Even Running Exchanges are Banning The people and not Returning Funds.We should start the campaign in favour Of Bitcoin.
You mean what are the chances of bitcoin being regulated in different countries? Then the answer is very high chance. Most of the government around the world will not allow people to use bitcoin or any other crypto currencies. They don't want people to have full control of their financial aspects. Thus, they will want to eventually regulate bitcoin and all other crypto currencies. They might even make their own crypto currencies.
It is not the exchanges fault that they can't allow people from certain countries to join their project. People should better be reading their ToS before joining them, they probably already mentioned that users fund will be confiscated.

Why do people have to communicate with you through telegram? Why don't you post and contact people through here? Wouldn't it be better that everyone gets to know how to recover their lost money from casinos? Why do you have to be so secretive about it? You are just making yourself sound really fishy.
Everyone should be careful when doing any business with this user. High chance he might try to scam you.
3575  Economy / Economics / Re: The Future Crypto Market & China Printing Money on: February 04, 2020, 08:14:00 PM
I believe that China has been 'injecting' money into its own economy for its efforts to fight the virus and whatnot, though that doesn't necessarily mean that they are not printing money on the side. While it may have short-term negative effects on their own economy, knowing how China's capability to outgrow any demands on its products, they can keep up. Then again, at the current state of things, countries are rejecting goods from China on the fear that it might have taken some of the virus on its journey. Even though the virus can only last long for 12 hours max without a host, other countries are still trying to get extra cautious and not risk anything.

The virus may have impaired some of the manufacturing industries that rely on China but as soon as the virus is controlled and quarantined, the economy would surely keep up and be stable once more.
So how is "injecting" money into their own economy going to help fight corona virus? Printing money to help fight corona virus also makes no sense at all. How come you are saying printing money is going to have short term negative effect? If this keeps on going on, it is going to affect Chinas economy very badly in the long run. Look at those countries that have printed insane amount of money. See how messed up their economy is.
Haven't heard anywhere that goods from China are being rejected.

You should reduce the font size (or just use the standard default size). Kinda hard to read if you keep the font size too big.
Anyways, just couple of hundred dollars in BTC is not enough for trading. I mean, yeah you can trade with those, but you won't be making much of a profit. The time you would be spending behind trading wouldn't be worth it at all. But since you are new, low investment will actually help you to learn how to trade and you won't be losing much due to small capital. Just start small, try different kind of investments and learn from your mistakes.
3577  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is digital gold good? on: February 01, 2020, 12:31:29 PM
As I am increasingly interested in investing some of my money in digital gold for the long term and I will invest around 40% whether this is good.?
give your opinion.
And I want to know a few articles about digital gold may be shared here.
thank you
For a moment I thought you were talking about bitcoin and then thought it was Bitcoin Gold. You should be post links to the coin/token you are talking about if its a new unknown coin. Never heard of Digital Gold to be honest. Sounds like some usless coin. Bad investment I would say. You are better off investing on some other better and well known coins. Though, do your own research before investing.
3578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Running an online Bitcoin gambling website on: February 01, 2020, 12:27:07 PM
Did you really think its a good idea to come up over the forum and ask for legal advice from random people on the internet? You would get better answers if you google your question instead of asking over here.
You are talking about legal stuffs. Hire a lawyer and take his advice. Different state have different laws. Only your lawyer can help you answer your questions. If you need license or not, it totally depends on the laws of the country you will be hosting your casino from.
3579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UK gamblers cannot use Credit Cards for gambling from April 14, 2020 on: February 01, 2020, 12:21:12 PM
It will still benefit those gamblers who are abusing their credit cards for gambling but they will surely still find another mode of the transaction just to pursue playing. As long as crypto gambling is legal in their country, no one could stop players to gamble because there are still alternative ways except for credit cards.
Why would you call it abusing? They are using their own credit cards to gamble, its not like they are using someone else's credit card to gamble. Even if they try, they won't be able to do so do you ID verification and stuffs. Again, credit cards have limits. There is no way a person can "abuse" his card due to those limits.
Even if crypto gambling is not legal in their country, they can still find their way out to gamble with crypto currencies without any troubles.
3580  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin forks on: February 01, 2020, 12:17:11 PM
If I search on bitcoin on eg. coinmarketcap, there will be a lot of coins with "bitcoin" in the name. Like "Bitcoin 2", "Bitcoin Diamond", "BitcoinHD", "Wrapped Bitcoin" and more..
Is all of them forks from bitcoin and there to be claimed?
Not all of them are forks of bitcoin. Some of them uses the name "bitcoin" to promote their shitcoin. Bitcoin cash and Bitcoin SV are some well known forks of bitcoin. Bitcoin 2 and BitcoinHD are probably some clone of bitcoin itself. Don't invest on those.
Its not worth claiming most of those shit forks. If you are eligible to claim those forks, go for those that are well known.
