3681  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cheap coins flying to my attention! on: April 07, 2021, 01:17:00 PM
I just got all the cheapest coins on CMC and it’ll either be really good percentage gains or really bad haha

But this is all with “extra” money I wouldn’t be devastated with losing.

XAP, YLD, XBC, and Blocknet (BLOCK).
Funny thing is that I saw someone who was complaining about holding like this since 2018 and only gaining nothing more than $70 dollars this year, while there are so many other coins that he could have invested in which would have gotten him a lot of profit than that he’s getting now. Well, that doesn’t mean anyone can’t be lucky, the possibilities of most of these coins becoming the next ethereum or bitcoin is tiny.

I do know that there can be a few among that can become successful at any day, but you can’t really predict the one its going to be, you’re just going to be relying on your luck and hoping that you have invested in the right assets.
3682  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum now on the 35th spot of top asset by Market Cap on: April 06, 2021, 07:41:42 PM
Ethereum is now ranked #35th largest asset by market capitalization globally, sitting pretty with a market cap of $237,142,899,514.


Source: AssetDash

Ethereum has surpassed #Adobe and #Coca-Cola, among others, and continues to climb. Next target: #Netflix, #Verizon and #Exxon Mobil
It is really marvelous that it already reached 32 right now. Ethereum is bigger than netflix, can you imagine that that means? I mean we are talking about? We have one in top 10 (bitcoin at sixth) another in top 40 and also BNB is at 205 as well, I believe very soon (literally this week) it will be in top 200.

Crypto is growing so big that it is going to be challenging itself versus other currencies instead of these companies very soon, we will be talking about bitcoin vs dollar and right now the amount of dollar existing in the world is toooo huge for us to reach but it's going to break over that with the help of all other fiat currencies going into bitcoin as well. Let's hope for this to continue to make us all money, these coins being higher ranked means our profits are rising. I can't really say where it will go but I would love to see bitcoin at top spot.
3683  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 1INCH Speculation/Discussion Thread on: April 06, 2021, 07:05:27 PM
since the end of december there is a new type of dex exchange aggregator that allow aggregate all of the liquidity and pricing data from all major DEXes so that users can get the best prices and lowest slippage for their trades.
i find this new type very interesting and also see a lot of potential in it. moreover, the own 1INCH token is still in a good price range to be able to buy cheaply.
I would be interested to know who of you has invested in this project and how you see the future of 1INCH.
The fact that 1inch is making so many deals with so many projects is the reason why it is getting so much attention. Think about it this way, on centralized exchanges the ones that got the most attention was always the ones that did the best marketing to get the most volume, they always wanted to have the biggest total volume, and one of the tricks there was to give people affiliate income for it.

But, the next best ones were always exchanges that actually let many projects get in, they had countless pairs and altcoins, I have seen one with as much as 100+ coins listed, those get a lot of users not because those coins have high volume, most of them didn't even have decent volume, but they were liked because they had those coins, so maybe one of them didn't matter but when you had 100+ it combined became big. I believe 1inch is the dex version of those places, they are going to have so much projects that it will become much bigger.

If you have really gone this far to study all these things and have really understood them, then you should try to apply them and see how far you can go with it. But it doesn’t end there, you still have to learn different strategies and know at when to apply the strategies that will work out.

So far, I believe you have done really great by learning all these things, because a lot of people don’t know this much. Some of the other things that are left you’re going to learn with time and experience, it’s a slow process and you will have to be patient enough.
Yeah, if it’s a free course then it’s not really bad, and have you tried applying the knowledge you learn from this course and seeing whether it works or not? Because if it’s not working then there is no damn need for it, though I do hope that it works. I have seen so many courses on trading on YouTube and they are usually not accurate, maybe this one will be different. I haven’t gone through the channel though, but might do say and once I do I might update my comment.

There are also people who prefer to go for the paid courses cause they believed those are the best you are going to find. Somehow I feel that’s true, I have seen some paid courses and they are not something you can finish up in minutes or few hours, rather they take days to finish up, they are usually long lessons with stages. They are usually on Udemy, Coursera, and sites like that.
3685  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Recovering losses on: April 06, 2021, 06:17:04 PM
Meehn you’re firs experience should have been enough to guide you but I guess you didn’t learn from that first one and that is why you ended up repeating the same mistake and losing your money again.

Anyway, I will advise you never to sell that small piece of land you say you own, I know why I am saying this, land is one of the best assets for anyone to own, so keep it for now and don’t rush to sell it and put the whole money in bitcoin. And I don’t know how you’re losing up to 80% because the price really haven’t dipped that much after reaching $60,000, but anyway, you can still just lock up whatever you have now if you’re not in a hurry and wait for it to increase again (you said you’re ready to hold six months).
3686  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC halving party is over, MASS PoC takes you back to ten years ago on: April 06, 2021, 05:52:20 PM
This consensus algorithm is based on providing proof of storage space. Every node has to provide a valid proof of the capacity in order to submit a block to the network and claim reward. The algorithm makes it impossible for any node to generate capacity proof without having the corresponding storage size, and this proof can be verified by every node that participates in the consensus process. Block is accepted by the network only if both the block data and the proof of capacity are valid.
This new thing will not be enough to end the ongoing halving party of bitcoin markets. Even anything may not be having such power to end this as bitcoin is the pioneer which means people believe into it regardless of whatever technology or revolutions you will be bringing in. I am not saying these just for your new algorithm but there were similar innovations had been introduced here but none of them sustained against bitcoin's evolution.

Probably governments' regulation or big corporate's negative sentiment nor anything will not have long term impact on bitcoin markets for sure.
3687  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Next 10x projects picked for 2021 on: April 06, 2021, 01:43:24 PM
$SC (Siacoin) :- can go up to 0.5$ old ATH 0.1$

$TRX (TRON) :- can go up to 0.5$ old ATH 0.2$

$KIN :- can go up to 0.1 $ old ATH  0.00122572 $

$Easy :- can go up to 150$ old ATH  $31.36 $  

$UNI :- can go up to  200$  old ATH  35.88$
Among this list, I'm holding only tron coin right now. I'm planning to invest with UNI but unable to get enough funds for it. Other than these two, I am not sure about other coins that you have mentioned. Anyway thanks for the list, I will look into other coins and will study about their future and then based on my research's outcome, I will decide accordingly.

By the way, I like to look into wrx token which is very similar to bnb but having 10x more supply which means it may grow like binance coin but 10x lesser. Recently it was pumped from below 1000 satoshi to 9000 satoshi and right now trading around 6500 satoshi.
3688  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin wasn’t created to make you rich. It was created to make you free on: April 06, 2021, 01:12:50 PM
I hate that I cannot save money effectively because our government loves to inflate problems away at the expense of my savings... bitcoin and altcoins are our greatest hope in returning power back to working middle-class people.
It means your government wants to you keep working regardless of your saving but you're going to use bitcoin to save you from that situation? Why not we assume that bitcoin was created for both the purposes of getting us rich as well as make us free? Because, the reason why bitcoin was created definitely perspective; it will look like how you are approaching it and based what are your needs.

In my opinion bitcoin was created to get rid of all the hassles of our traditional banking like giving the power of banking back to the common people themselves. But to make it popular, it was designed in a way which will be helping us to be richer but that is only in short-term property of bitcoin or we can assume them it like a temporary characteristic.
3689  Economy / Economics / Re: The total value of the crypto currency market is near $2 trillion on: April 05, 2021, 08:31:26 AM
According to TradingView, Aramco’s Saudi is worth about $ 7 trillion, or $ 1.86 trillion at the time of writing.
7 trillion in Saudi Riyal? (also Saudi's Aramco)

If we do believe the stats surprisingly 20 million coins are lost forever. (in BTC only)] ( but that also serves dual purpose , they are more like HODL situation here )
So far only 18.6 million bitcoin has been mined out.



$2 trillion is really good, it shows how much we are progressing. I used to think that Apple was worth around $1 trillion until I saw this post and decided to check it on Google and now I come to know they worth up to $2 trillion and that’s really huge.But I believe the cryptocurrency market will be passing that worth in a short time. Then we will start looking at each cryptocurrency, which would be the first to reach the trillion mark, I know for sure that it’s going to be Bitcoin. As for altcoins I don’t know which one is going to cross that mark first, although there is more possibility that it will be Ethereum.
3690  Economy / Economics / Re: A Decentralized Roadmap To Compete With Elon Musk/Tesla: The Open Source Car on: April 05, 2021, 03:18:59 AM
Question: could automobile corporations more effectively harness the collective resource of a population by decentralizing their development, maintenance and production models away from centralized monolithic models. To be more inclusive of local communities. Producing products designed to be open source hackable and moddable.

For analogies sake, if tesla has 1 thousand engineers in a centralized format. Could gains be made by decentralizing and opening select portions of their development process to millions of engineers, tinkerers and hackers around the world.

Is there anyone who would like to own a car or truck designed from the ground up to be open sourced. To make it as easy as possible to mod, hack, modify, repair without needing a certified professional. Don't forget movie franchises like the Fast and Furious arose out of the modding car scene. I don't know if there is a market for it today. But there definitely is a long history of hot rodding and modding with cars/vehicles which could be relevent.

Or are there perhaps significant flaws or shortcomings to open sourcing automobile technology which I am failing to acknowledge?
I doubt whether it being decentralized will be a better option or just remaining centralized. But, I do think that in a situation where there is a warranty for that car, it’s best that there are just some set of professionals that are left to handle it in cases where there breakdowns and things like that, cause that way the company will be sure that no one is really tampering with it in any other way that it would result to an extra costs for them and stuff’s like that.

But in a situation where there is now warranty of such, then anyone can be free to work on the vehicle. This is what I think, there are always two sides to a coin, we should always consider the two sides before making a decision that we think is the best.
3691  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If a project gets too complicated on: April 04, 2021, 08:48:05 PM
If there're a projects were complicated or hard to understand what is the real purpose of it or use of those projects, then thos projects are probably not going farther, and the reason why many people say those projects are mostly scam because  usually those projects doesn't reach its goal and that's the main reason many people got disappointed on that kinds of projects.
I think that's not a problem in the crypto world. It could be as complicated as it gets and we will still understand it. There are way too many people who would be willing to actually end up understanding and helping other people on this subject. That's why I think there is no need for worrying, just let it be.

That's why people are not worried, because there are others who are fine with these things and that means everyone can create a project that is super complicated and eventually there will be at least one (probably a lot more) person that will understand it and explain it to people easily so that everyone can understand, as long as we have those people, there is no coin that would make it too complicated that nobody would understand, that's going to be tough because there are very smart people in the crypto world and they would understand.
3692  Economy / Gambling / Re: bustabit – The original crash game on: April 04, 2021, 08:19:52 PM
I do not agree that bitcoin is "nowhere near over" for the logic of price. Sure we will increase, and sure we will do fine but just like realmalatesta said we are not going to see 6000x type of increase, that would be silly and we would be basically at a marketcap that is bigger than all of stock markets combined, that's just silly to expect something like that.

We are already at a very high level and on top of that you are expecting it to go higher "that" much? I think it may do another 10x or so but that's about it, and that is why I do not see it going super high at any time soon. Not saying that it can't break over a million dollars for example but even if it can achieve that it is not the same thing. That is why I agree that bustabit is the best ever investment anyone can make, at least our bitcoins are not sitting around waiting for something else to happen.
3693  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trade + study = great combination on: April 04, 2021, 07:41:30 PM
If you mean trade and also study what's going on in crypto market, then its best possible combination.

whatever we do we will always have to obtain knowledge if we are to succeed in the thing we are doing. it is not possible to do any business and be successful without our knowledge of the business, so I think that anyone should know that it is not possible to trade or invest in cryptocurrencies without having knowledge of cryptocurrency trade and investment.

I'll give you an example:

if someone doesn’t know that when the bitcoin price starts to go up the price of altcoins a lot in relation to bitcoin starts to fall that person will lose money if they buy altcoin, but they will lose in relation to bitcoin getting less bitcoin, but they may have more dollar

are things we have to know
Knowledge but also patience as well. I have a friend who turned very tiny amounts into millions of dollars but he did that in 3 years, he was patient and he was wise so he used his wisdom and combined that with waiting and he became super rich. How? He bought a coin when he felt like it was undervalued, he bought more if it dropped and when it went up, he sold 25% of the profit first, and then 25% more and so forth until he had his initial investment level money in there, but all of his investment back out and he invested into something else.

This way he had a lot of coins invested that he owned but he didn't technically had any of his initial capital in anything because basically as soon as project did 2x he got out his investment. Now he has millions of dollars because he was capable of waiting for all of them, since he didn't had any of his initial capital in, price of projects could become zero all he cares, hence he was capable of waiting for years before they went up.
3694  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can I hold Tron for better earn?is it a good idea? on: April 03, 2021, 01:12:10 PM
It has the 20th biggest marketcap at coinmarketcap. It has the name recognition and publicity too. Right now moving tethers from Binance by using the Tron chain is the cheapest option. That alone brings huge real world usage to that chain. So it is probably a good idea to own some Tron.
Very well mentioned and because it has zero transaction fees it is very popular among gamblers, small traders and anyone who wants to transact smaller amounts but wishes to have faster confirmations despite paying no fees. Quite incredible. The only problem in my opinion, is the lack of projects being made on the TRC-20 chain which concerns me because projects moved to BNB chain after ETH was crowded but they hardly shifted to TRC-20.
3695  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Zcash an underestimated cryptocurrency? on: April 01, 2021, 08:02:10 PM
What are your thoughts about Zcash? Do you think it is an underestimated cryptocurrency? Does it have a chance against other privacy-related cryptocurrencies on the market? Will it go higher in price or stale? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Smiley
ZCash is a good cryptocurrency, but comparing it to Bitcoin is a no-no, because that coin is not going to match up to the level of Bitcoin, they two are entirely different since ZCashdoesn’t have the level of investors we have in Bitcoin.

As for being undervalued, I can’t say about that for sure, I think it’s at the value it’s supposed to be, and if you check the both market cap, they are totally different, Bitcoin far up and is giving a huge gap to the other market cap. Good thing about ZCash is the privacy feature , but people hardly use it.
3696  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why you don't need to HODL or trade Bitcoin on: April 01, 2021, 06:24:42 PM
Ethereum is much more promising than Bitcoin with it's smart-contracts. HODL Ethereum not Bitcoin, when the disaster comes, Bitcoin won't survive.
I am surprised to see you say this at times when the ETH is facing so many problems. I don't understand how during a disaster Bitcoin would not survive but Ethereum will survive.

If you don't beleave in the future of cryptocurrencies, just want to earn some paper money, then HODL Ethereum or speculate with top altcoins with high liquidity and volatility.
I don't know but I feel like you are shilling hard for altcoins which is not wrong given the popularity but actually if you see the market cap of all the altcoins, combine them together they will not get close to the market cap alone that bitcoins carries.

You might want to visit here once to know what I am saying: https://coinmarketcap.com/

If there are signs of a coin being dead, it is certainly not bitcoin, it might be any other coin even Ethereum facing so many problems might become dead but I don't see why bitcoin would ever die.
3697  Economy / Economics / Re: Why should i invest in bitcoin or other cryptos ? on: April 01, 2021, 03:03:59 PM
Most of us will recommend you to buy big coins like btc eth and e.t.c.

But the one thing you must know is in the end that is your investment and you need to do your own research.

If you're looking coins who giving you profit(like dividen) maybe you need to buy coins which can stacking / node.
Yeah, I think all of those things are already known and dude is still not investing so if someone is not investing even after all of this, he may never invest, or there is some other major thing needed to make him invest. Is it very profitable? It is, but doesn't he already know that? Bitcoin was 10k just few months ago in October or September, it is around 60k right now, if you bought bitcoin a year ago you would have about 10x as well, that is the amount you profit from crypto and its public knowledge, yet he didn't invested in it anyway so he knows it and still doesn't get in.

Blockchains security is already known, it is impossible to hack into someone's wallet, so why not keep your money safe? Basically everything there is known and he still doesn't get in which leads to third point, good future. Maybe he doesn't believe in the good future bit? Who knows? But it is obvious that bitcoin has proven itself to be awesome.
3698  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH is falling fast right now. At what point do you get out? on: April 01, 2021, 07:12:04 AM
$1500? $1400? Surely at some point you guys will want to get out until things settle down, right? Thanks.
All these are because of breaking the strongest resistance levels around 2000 dollars, which was the level that we have never seen before in ETH ever, not in 2017 peak times not last year, not anytime. We are talking about nearly 15x increase in the past 1 year, that is really not normal when you consider that ethereum was second highest coin and we have managed to actually make a 15x increase in the second biggest one. Why is it more shocking when it is second highest coin?

Because in order to be the second biggest coin you need to actually have some sort of huge price anyway, and if you are already super high and second that means it should be a lot harder for you to increase as well, and when you are that big and still go 15x that is normally unheard of specially when we are talking about 200+ billion dollars market cap. If ETH goes up another 5x that would mean it would break over bitcoin as well, not that I think it will happen but even being this close means a lot.
3699  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Give your opinion on crypto bookmakers on: March 31, 2021, 07:48:24 PM
My rating for sports betting sites would be as follows.

1- Stake 4.5/5: Excellent odds for most events and even partnered with UFC so lots of promos along with good odds. Have the best support I have ever seen and provide good bonuses weekly and monthly. The only reason it is not a perfect 5/5 is because they don't give free bets like some others.

2- Sportsbet.io 4/5: Excellent site with free bets and odds boost but the reason I deducted 1 point is because they sometimes they lack in terms of promotions and there is no forum or anything to interact with others and hence no forum promotions, although love the recent addition of chat.

3- Bitsler 1/5: They asked me for KYC after I deposited money and denied withdrawal if I was not going to verify myself holding documents and selfies and all, I just cannot approve this kind of behavior honestly.
3700  Economy / Speculation / Re: If Bitcoin will hit $60,000 today, what's next? on: March 31, 2021, 07:21:22 PM
Officially we haven't touch $60k yet, as high as $59,400 though.

And yes for obvious reasons we will see two outcome, either we go to higher after $60k or see a huge dump again to $53k. Was hoping for the former though, and hope that $60k or higher, the price will be sustainable and then go to $70k next month.
Yes it is very much possible to reach $70k in next month. Though it is really tough to predict crypto currency price but we are seeing a great move of bitcoin. I hope bitcoin will touch $100k in this year.
The weird thing is, we are higher in price right now than any moment before March, so we should all be in profit except just a few people, I do not get people who do not really have enough money to cover this kind of loss if they are just starting new, obviously anyone with a grain of mind would not go all-in right at the peak price, sure you may want to buy but at least buy it with money you can afford to lose plus have some cash aside to get in even more if it falls, why go all in when the price is at all time high? That is why I do not think that many people are losing money, they are just losing profit.

And making this much noise over lost profit makes no sense to me. In any case lets just focus on whats going on and if this is just a correction or a crash, price peaked at 62k and dropped to 50k and reached to 59k recently, so maybe its like that?
