Is it even possible to make a lot of money fast nowadays since people are aware of these altcoins?

Are there people that post their trades where others could look at?  I recall there was a poster who posted something like turning 10000 usd into 1 million and he post every trade he does.  I recall that 10k is 100k now but not sure how it is now.

How much money can you make if you start with say 10k or 25k?  Are there people that make 50k doing this?  But most importantly how much money would they need?

How easy/hard was it to buy bitcoin back in 2009?  What about 2011?  And did bitcoin wallets even existed?  Or did everyone kept their bitcoin in the exchange?  I heard of people mentioning how certain people kept their bitcoin in their old hard drives etc.  So that meant they had a wallet or something like that?


Those that bought bitcoin back then, where did you keep your bitcoin?  Was it exchange or computer?  Also i assume blockchain or electrum or similar wallets were not available back then? 

Since people own both bitcoin and altcoins... then is it really possible to be profitable in both because its inversely related then?

funfair is now 2 cents.  But the amount it is in terms of btc is different compared to when it was 3 cents.  So is it possible to lose money if funfair goes higher to say 5 cents when you bought it at 2 cents if btc price changes a lot?  

Well was it hard/easy to buy bitcoin back then?  And say you bought bitcoin back in 2009?  Or let say 2011.  If you did that, where would the bitcoin be most likely held?  At the exchange?  Or in a wallet?  Did blockchain, electrum or any of those bitcoin wallets even existed around then?  Thus i assume anyone that kept bitcoin would have kept it in an exchange?

Has anyone here received other stuff like SXAS and waves and wavesnode to their waves wallet?  What is exactly are these? 

Funfair is all the way to 2 cents now.  Edgeless is now 50 cents.  Does anyone here think buying a lot of funfair might be a good idea?  Its 2 cents now... but if it goes up to 1 dollar, you will 50x.


But this is basically impossible because of the already high marketcap?  However, look at all those altcoins that started out so low price.  Was there market cap really low which is why it increased?

Would it be a good idea to trade all your altcoins and even use money in the bank just to get more bitcoin just for the bitcoin gold... then once you do that, convert the btc back to altcoins and cash in bank?


Does anyone have a clue how much money will bitcoin gold be worth about?


And how would one claim their bitcoin gold?  Also what if you did not claim your bitcoin cash?  I assume no problem with this right?  And how easy/hard would it be to claim bitcoin gold?  Will you need another computer?  Thats the reason why i did not claim my bitcoin cash yet.

What do you mean without a burn?


Well look at all the coins in the top 25 that started out very low.  Then eventually alll got to 1 dollar, 5 dollar and some 10 dollar plus.  So why did those coins get so high then?  Unless you mean the marketcap back then for those coins were very low and thats why?


So can you give me examples of recent coins that were 10 cents and under and its now 1 dollar or more etc? 

Does this mean it would be basically impossible for funfair to hit 1 dollar due to its already high mark cap?


The thing is what about all those top 25 coins where the price was very little when it first came out.  Was their market cap already high? 


Can anyone give me recent examples of coins that started out like 10 cents and under and hit 1 dollar?

It seems like nothing is happening with waves.  Does anyone here think waves can drop down even more in price?  And when is waves going to increase?  I hear people say waves will go up a lot later on but nothing is happening to it.

But you are buying altcoin in terms of btc price.  So wouldn't that mean if you buy an altcoin at 5 dollars usd price.  But then when you want to sell it at 7 dollars... its possible to lose money due to the btc price?  And let say you buy 100 shares of lisk at 5 dollars or some decimal btc.  But when you sell lisk at 7 dollars, assuming btc goes up a lot, wouldn't that mean you could lose money here because when you trade the lisk for btc, you are getting much less btc than you traded it for the lisk?

I read bitcoin came out in 2009.  I first heard of bitcoin back in 2011 when someone mentioned it to me.  They told me it would get big.  I don't recall the exact price at the time but i believe it was 10 dollars the max i believe.  I recall reading a bit of it and thought this is junk because to me it was like some useless coin.


So i would like to know this.  Let say i would buy bitcoins back then.  Lets just say i bought 100 of them for 1000 dollars.  I most likely would not spending 1000 dollars on it but lets just say i did.  Now if it was 1 dollar each, i definitely would buy at least 100 dollars worth.  Now i want to know around 2011, how hard/easy was it to buy bitcoins?  Did any bitcoin wallets even exist back then?  I assume not right?  I assume everything was kept on the exchanges?  The one main exchange i heard of is Mx gov and that site that hacked.  Is that the exchange most Americans uses back then to buy bitcoin?  I would like the feedback of an American who bought bitcoin back then.  Was it as easy as confirming your bank account and then you buy via ACH transfer?  So basically any bitcoin you bought would be in your exchange account right?  Then if you want to sell, you just sell it just like that?  Was it pretty easy to sell bitcoin back then?  Were there people that traded bitcoin or was there no demand for that?


Now we all hear about how if we bought a lot of bitcoin when it was less than 1 dollar each, we all have lot of money.  Now let say you bought 1000 bitcoin at 10 cents each or something like that.  How long was bitcoin 10 cents?  And the other thing is this.  Lets just say you spent $1000 and bought 1000 bitcoin when it was 1 dollar each.  What percentage do you think people who bought 1000 bitcoin at 1 dollar each probably sell the bitcoin when it hits 10 dollars?  Or 100 dollars?  Obviously when it hit 500 dollars, im sure lot of people sold it?  Thus im sure there probably were lot of ppl that had 1000+ bitcoin due to buying it for like 10 cents or even less? 

 
Most importantly, what were the names of the bitcoin exchanges or sites most Americans used?  And say you did bought 1000 bitcoin.  Well, wouldn't there be a very high chance the mx gov hack thing... your bitcoin was probably there?  Or were there wallets created later on around then?  When exactly were the bitcoin wallets created like those armory, blockchain etc?


Obviously now its easy to buy/sell bitcoin.  But even if you bought say 100 or 1000 bitcoin back then for like 10 or 100 or 1000 dollars, what are the chances your bitcoin could be lost to due to the mx gov or anything else similar to that?  And of course you have to factor how many people would have sold their bitcoin if it went up very high.  For example if you buy 1000 bitcoin for 100 dollars and prices go very high, my thinking would be no point of selling it if price can't go a lot higher etc.  But say i bought 1000 bitcoin for 1000 dollars.  Well 1000 dollars is not exactly chump change.  But 100 dollars isn't that much etc.  Do people here get my logic?  Like hey its only 100 dollars vs 1000 dollars.  And of course you have to factor how many people want to lock in their profits. 


Im also wondering there must be quite a bit of people that might have 100+ btc stored somewhere but either their hard drive no longer work or they forgot their password to their wallet or something similar?  I mean if a guy bought 5000 btc for 27 dollars... i mean surely someone bought 10000 btc for 54 dollars right?  I mean there might be even people that bought like 20000 btc for 100 dollars or so when bitcoin just came out?  But those that eventually sold it, im wondering how frustrated they would been because 20000 btc now would be a lot of money etc.

Why is every altcoin traded against btc and not USD? 


This is what is even more confusing.  On bittrex, if you want to buy or sell a coin... lets just say lisk for example.  The price of lisk could be 5 dollars or 8 dollars or 3 dollars etc.  Now let say you want to buy lisk at 5 dollars when the price is currently 5.25.  Well if you do that, you have to check when lisk is 5 dollars or do an order of buying x amount of lisk when lisk hits 5 dollars.  So let say you want to buy 100 shares of lisk at 5 dollars.
But instead of putting down 5 dollars, you need to put it as a decimal in terms of btc.  Well isn't there a big issue with this? 


Because 0.00088 btc = $5 now.  However let say you put 0.00088 btc is the price you want to buy.  So let say the lisk price drops to 0.00088 and then it does the buy order where you buy 100 shares of lisk at 0.00088 btc.  However, that 0.00088 btc could be now 6 dollars instead of 5 dollars right?  Or of course it could be 2 dollars as well assuming btc price go down a lot?  So with btc and eth and litecoin where you buy it against USD, its easy to calculate your profit and buying it.  But with altcoins, are you suppose to look at the 0.000x btc decimal more than the actual dollar amount?  Because i always look at the dollar amount of an altcoin.  So in that example, wouldn't that mean you are buying lisk now at 6 dollars as oppose to 5 dollars even though the lisk price actually dropped?  So the lisk you got is at 6 dollars even though the price drop from 5.25 to 5 dollars?  I read others say you aren't suppose to look at the usd price with altcoins?  Can someone explain this more simpler?  The thing is it seems altcoin trading is very confusing because you are trading against btc and not usd.  I mean shouldn't you be looking at the price or lisk etc?  Because if you wanted to buy ETH if it drops to 250.  Well you can do that by doing a buy order of it when it drops to 250.  Or just buy it when its 250.  But with altcoins, say an altcoin is 10 dollars.  But you want to buy it at 8 dollars.  But if you wait till it hits 8 dollars but the btc price goes higher, then you actually lose here?  So if you want to buy an altcoin but wait for price to drop, you want the btc price is drop as well?  Or is that not relevant?   Its like even though the usd price went down, it would be cheaper if you got it at 10 dollars?  Because that makes no sense at all.

So are most of you getting bitcoin right before the fork?  How long before the fork should you get btc?  Also wouldnt it make sense to trade all your altcoin for btc before the fork just to get your bitcoin gold?  Also wouldn't it make sense to buy bitcoin just to get the bitcoin gold?  And if so how long before the bitcoin fork then?


And does anyone have a guess at how much bitcoin gold would be worth?


Also i assume if you havent claimed your bitcoin cash yet, well it doesn't matter and you could claim your bitcoin cash and bitcoin gold later on?

But look at all the coins that started like 10 cents and below.  Many of those coins in the top 25 coins started out very low like that etc.  What is different about those coins vs funfair and edgeless then?  Did all those coins started out with a low marketcap?

So you guys are telling me its basically going to be impossible for a coin like funfair to hit 10 dollars due to the already high marketcap?  So would hitting 1 dollar be very hard as well?


The thing is coins like edgeless started out like at 3 cents etc.  So its not possible for funfair to go up to 1 dollar?  Everyone mentions look at the marketcap.  So if a marketcap for a coin is already very high, that means the chance of that coin going up in price by a lot is very hard etc?

I like to know this as well
