Maybe they are fine with small amounts but I wouldn't trust TradeSatoshi with large amounts.  They like to pull the KYC card when you have a lot of bitcoin.  They also list a lot of scam projects and delist certain coins without any prior notification.

At least you are trading with the top coins and not some dead altcoins.  The btc ratio moves a lot and can move 10 percent in a short amount of time, there is a lot of money to be made trading btc ratios if you are patient
363  Economy / Economics / Re: Can you share Bitcoin percentage in your portfolio? on: April 30, 2019, 01:55:24 PM
As of now, it is %98.5. Mind that this percentage is from my crypto holdings. Not from my full portfolio which has other assets like gold, stocks etc.

I had it around 93-94% a few weeks ago just before the altcoin crash started. I dumped them all (mostly RVN and LTC) from the top price. Not coming back unless I can buy back at least twice of what I sold.

The only major altcoin I hold now is: Monero and I don't really know why. If the price shoots up I might dump that one away too but it doesn't show any signs of recovery.

Monero looks like a very bad choice right now, the btc ratio is dropping heavily.  Most of my funds  are in bitcoin and ethereum.  I do own a very small amount of low tier altcoins but the amount is negligible.  Many altcoins serve no real purpose and were just created for a quick pump and dump.

Is this real? Yet another problem with Electrum.

Time to switch to a different wallet, this is unacceptable.

A guy bought a very big house, which triggered an argument on a telegram group.
some people were arguing on a telegram group that they guy couldn't have bought the house with only trading profit....some insinuated that he must be into other businesses.
I laughed at their ignorance.
Why? Because I know that even in this present market condition that some skilled traders are making a killing.
I'm not talking about traders who trade with small capital here.
The conclusion is that when you trade with massive capital ,you earn massively.

They sound very jealous because he was able to succeed in something that most can't.  Trading is a very difficult way to make money but if you can truly master it the possibilities are endless.  Especially if you start using high leverage.

I don't think bitmex will scam you, even though their leverage platform is a giant casino they are a legit service.  Perhaps this is just a rogue worker trying to extort you because he sees the opportunity.  Give it some time as they are a very large platform and have to deal with many customers

This is creating an issue out of nothing.  No one is holding women back from entering the crypto world, its just that men and women on average have different interests.
368  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: where do you trade your Altcoin? on: April 29, 2019, 02:02:00 PM
Undoubtedly, Binance out of competition. Coins that are sold there are more reliable for investment than coins of small exchanges. For long-term investment is the best option. I prefer this exchange.

Not really, Binance will list any project that pays enough money for the listing fee.  They aren't filtering out good projects from bad ones that is your job.  Quite frankly, I think CZ has had the power go to his head for running the biggest exchange.  He has become a major gatekeeper for new projects.

Even though I don't like Harden's style of play because he always tries to draw a foul he was definitely fouled on that 3 pointer.  Winning game 1 was crucial for the Rockets to win this series.

Boston is looking really good and I think they will the team to come out of the East.

I couldn't believe the Spurs didn't foul in the closing seconds in game 7, that is just unacceptable.

There is some truth to your post OP, most of the respected members of this forum do wear paid signatures.  The issue is that many newbies don't contribute to any meaningful discussion and are here to only make money.  If you contribute to this forum in a meaningful way I see no issue making money by helping advertise a crypto service.
371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin = Nerd money or not? on: April 29, 2019, 01:42:43 PM
Nerd doesn't really carry the same negative connotations that it used to.  Its like things flip flopped.

Now these things are cool:
-video games
-superhero movies
-computers/technology
-glasses are considered fashionable now
372  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What people do to make their altcoins popular? on: April 29, 2019, 01:36:47 PM
A lot of it is about timing, Dogecoin wouldn't gain the same traction if it was launched today.  As much as I'm against dogecoin and would never invest in it there is a decent size community and its actively traded on a lot of exchanges.

Next is marketing.  This is the most powerful tool to pump up a price of a coin and you need wealthy individuals backing your project to pay these massive costs.
373  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why blame people for your failure? on: April 29, 2019, 01:30:31 PM
People can be very deceptive and persuasive, especially in crypto.  There are a lot of charming individuals on youtube and social media that can easily hype a project up to new levels.  I don't like to blame the victim so I'd rather we go after these shillers and ponzi promoters.

That is a fair point quickseller, immigration would indeed by a massive problem if the United States was the only country to implement it.

I've read people talking about a robot tax when automation becomes really advanced.  I'm really curious as to how this will play out over the next few years.  Its in the interest of the ownership class to not let things get to out of hand or the guillotines will be brought back.

One of the earliest replacements will be drivers, Truckers will be replaced with self driving automobiles soon.

For people saying that new technology creates jobs, this isn't like the introduction of computers and the internet.  There won't be as strong of a need for human workers but this should be the goal of humanity.
375  Other / Politics & Society / Re: A radical left-right compromise US budget on: April 28, 2019, 07:47:40 PM
Can't believe so many of you guys are against UBI.  Don't you realize that automation has been taking jobs away from humans and its only becoming stronger.

One of the biggest problems is technological innovations are mostly funded by government programs but private corporations use it to make a profit.  For example: internet, cell phones, gps

UBI will reduce crime drastically and give an overall benefit to our society.  We lose a lot of brilliant minds that have great potential due to poverty.
376  Economy / Economics / Re: The Big Blockchain Lie (by Roubini) on: April 28, 2019, 07:41:10 PM
We had a bunch of ICOs with no real business plan and had zero reason to use blockchain.  They were trying to capitalize on the hype, blockchain is slow and clunky but it is good at decentralization which is very important for a currency.
377  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Anyone keep their trading capital in btc? on: April 28, 2019, 02:35:57 PM
I personally trade a lot of altcoins, just to increase my funds in BTC, not in USD, as I do trading on the sideline only anyways; Just solely to increase my BTC stack for the long term and not as fiat income.

I do the same thing when I trade but I do it sparingly.  I try to pick up altcoins if the btc ratio drops really low and attempt to flip it for a small gain.  I wouldn't suggest trying to trade for only USD gains because this market can move rapidly fast and you will be left behind with a stack of dollars when you should of been in crypto.
378  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I gamble for my WEDDING? on: April 28, 2019, 02:30:32 PM
I read comments and suggestions from the community the majority advice for your problem is do nit play your funds, weddings is very important moment in our lives. Go to your friend or family ask the financial support if need additional money for wedding preparations. Congrats and good luck for your new life.

I think people spend too much on weddings, its only a one day event and people are blowing tens of thousands of dollars on it.  I respect people that have a very small ceremony or just go down to the local courthouse and do it.
379  Other / Meta / Re: Merit Source Application - Squatz1 on: April 28, 2019, 02:25:25 PM
Yes, a merit source that hangs out in politics & society would be great.  I see a lot of great posts there go un merited.  I'm surprised BADecker doesn't get more merit, a lot of people think he is kind of nuts but he puts a lot of effort into his posts.
380  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price in December 2019 on: April 28, 2019, 02:21:22 PM
I do believe before we even hit that 5 digit number it will come to an end then goes back to a 50 percent drop.

Want to know why? There are still buyers out there from the 19k mark up to the 10k mark. They want refund with the same price and I do believe they will be selling it once it hit a price into which ROI is taken back.
Better get ready for a dump before it even happens.

It will still be lovely to have a slow and steady increase. There is not much FUD with it. Grin

I agree that there are a lot of people that bought in the 10k-20k range that just want to break even and this bull run will have a lot more dumpers.  I don't see btc hitting 20k for a very long time.  At most I'm going to say around 10k in the short term.
