3961  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [ICO] DIMCOIN The Future Of Equity on the Blockchain (FULL) on: August 07, 2017, 06:39:46 PM
Where the first time dimcoin can be traded when ICO ends ?

most of the time, the devs cannot confirm on WHEN their coin will be listed on exchanges, it is up to the exchange admins if they want to list the coin and when they will list it. so we just have to wait for the announcement about it

What do you think is better: listing  on exchanges when there is something real - or immediately after ISO. IF immediately after ISO - the price will definitely be dumped ... And will investors benefit from this? Better -  beta release first  - and then - exchanges.

personally, i don't care whatever their plan is about the exchanges, if users will dump it will be good for me so i can buy more coins, if it takes quite long it is still ok too for the price to be more stable

No its not okay. exchanges is a vital part on the growth of a certain altcoin because since merchants are limited, trading on various exchange platforms is mostly the one which

helps circulate the coin. the more exchange the better because = more volume. low volume altcoins usually have a few exchange to trade with. as much as possible the devs

should work on this and i'm really glad its the first one they will work on based on their roadmap.

Newbie trader here and it took me exactly 3 days to understand that short time trading is not for me. I lost some and gain too, but most of it was plain luck and I dont deserve that profit. I left it and now I just buy coins for holding now.
I know many professional traders who have already stopped day trading as it is not at all profitable for them also. Long-term trading or simply investing into bitcoin are the better option for any people with respect to bitcoin.

Trading requires lot of on time decision when a trader cannot give them properly, it will be better option just holding bitcoin for some long period.

as for me its reversed, i'm actually good at day trading but shows difficulty on long terms. i don't know how they done it but compared to long term holding of altcoins.

maybe we are using different strategies, what i'm using is like this, find a high volume coin, buy a large number of it as much as possible, add 10+ sats on the bought price and

make a sell order. your profits will depend on the amount you bough and you might do it many times until the day ends but the bottomline is it is less risky since you're gonna get

out quick.
3963  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HUGE BTC rise and XRP dip on: August 07, 2017, 01:32:50 PM
I wonder if the BTC rise is partly due to people trading their BCC for BTC.

There is no way current events cannot be but linked to this because the speculation has been around even on the forum for a while on the fact that BCC is free money and those who were against it are large owners who have swore to just claim the free money and dump and most times they don't just convert to cash rather they invest in back in btc because that's to them what have a future considering their earlier believe about BCC in the first place.

there are many factors that can affect bitcoins price, trading is certainly one of them although determining which specific coin made a difference is too difficult, we can make

guesses but we can never confirm it. in this situation i think the segwit implementation is the one affecting its price the most, i know its not activated yet but judging from the

looks of it, it  is already certain that it'll activate. almost all cryptocoins rose up when segwit was activated on them, naturally it'll also happen in bitcoin.
3964  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What's your current strategy? on: August 06, 2017, 10:12:21 PM
I will stay with my buying low and sell high strategy! I think this strategy is best because it reduced trading risk to a bearable minimum. Must of us do not know the magic of this strategy because of big players advise of technique and deep secret about trading.

Buy low and sell high is the fundamental part of trading, the basics of the basics, i'm sure most of us knows it. in fact this is the first thing i learned before i entered trading, well

it is the very concept of trading if you don't know it you don't know how to trade. and to be clear, the big players has really nothing to do with it because its your job to be

informed
3965  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't Spend Too Much Time Trading? is that true? on: August 06, 2017, 06:58:16 PM
For a successful trade you need a lot of time, knowledge and effort, but experience will come with time. So if you want to trade with profit, then you need to be prepared for a big time investment.
Proper knowledge is required to perform well in the crypto market. One needs to put all efforts to learn about this trading in order to enjoy great profit. I don’t think so there is anything wrong in spending too much time in trading in order to grab trading concepts and strategies.

you're right about that only if what you've done bear fruit--a good one obviously. but in ops case where he continuous to fail in trades resulting in loss of money. from that we can

gain conclusions where the most possible one is he didn't gain the fundamental knowledge knowledge and lessons. i think changing strategy and learning course will be the best

solution to try first because what ops doing is certainly futile. that strategy might or might not affect the time he spends on trading. sometimes a break once in a while can be

good.
3966  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin provide income on line? on: August 06, 2017, 05:27:04 PM
Online freelancing jobs has been of increase recently due to the fact that majority of such services are paid with bitcoin, this provides more income for the individuals offering such a service. Programming, graphic designs are some of the jobs that can be offered in  sites such as xbtfreelancer which offers payments with bitcoin making it one the most popular freelancing site.

i don't think that majority of such services are paid in bitcoins, majority still goes to USD because in terms of number of freelancing sites and the number of freelancers they are

without a doubt higher than bitcoin moreover it offers a wide variety of jobs from simple to technical. in bitcoin the freelancing sites are fairly limited and some of them are not

active to begin with. when it comes to jobs it is fairly limited also, they are mostly for computer literate persons e.g. programming, graphic design.
3967  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: August 06, 2017, 06:39:57 AM
Yes I also think that bitcoin is becoming a worldwide currency and more people are interested to know about it, how they can treat it.
I dont think so, since bitcoin is a digital currency, every people in this must have Internet connection and gadgets as well if that happened. So I think it is not a good idea that paper money will be xtiynct just think about the people who dont have and still can run with techy world.
I think no matter the number of bitcoin users in the world, when you can use bitcoin wherever you are even though it needs gadgets and internet to access it, I think it's included in the global currency, because you can use bitcoins anywhere and in all countries, and you can also send Bitcoin anywhere to all countries in the world?
In terms of usage it is really globally but in the number of users, it's only few to get into it unlike USD that are use by many. Though the importance of btc is really increasing for its user that anytime soon it will be popular thrice it is now.

yes as of now we are still few if you compared to the total population but fortunately everyday users are increasing rapidly on the contrary, methods on where to use it is not.

most cryptocoins are mainly used in trading/exchange platforms and theres nothing bad about it. its just that since they are still money after all. the users should have a variety

of choices on where to spend it, unfortunately its progress on that is really slow.
3968  Economy / Economics / Re: panic selling on: August 06, 2017, 04:16:44 AM
If a lot of people sell there shares in trading it will definitely go down but big fishes won't let that happen.  It will soon go up again so they can have a bigger profit.

For example, The big fish tried to create rumors that bitcoin will go down in august so a lot of people sell there shares because nobody want to go down with bitcoin so the big fish bought it all but bitcoin didn't went down for some reason and then the big fish will sell and the people who sold all there bitcoin will buy again because it wasn't true and then they will try again to earn then it will happen again and again and again. That is how the world of trading works.

i think the big fish or whales doen't need to concern themselves with hypes and fuds because if they are a whale they can certainly make a significant change perticularly when a

group of them teams up to achieve it. the small fishes naturally spreads hypes and fuds if they saw an opportunity after that weak hands will just follow because panic in this

community is inevitable.
3969  Economy / Economics / Re: Money above all things, Yes or no ? on: August 05, 2017, 11:35:35 PM
Money is not the most important thing in the world but it may appear to be one because most of our necessities can be bought using it moreover theres this unending wants that

make the claim stronger. there are actually many causes of this but i will not state them all because its obvious. bottomline is our world simply depends on it and some parts may

be rotten like a persons success depends on his wealth and a lot of things can be decided if you don't have enough money to survive. Earning money is just like surviving.
3970  Other / Off-topic / Re: Young people should go all in on bitcoin on: August 05, 2017, 10:26:22 PM
Right now many young people who have been bitten bitcoin because they know how to get it, even now the old has begun to be shifted by the new generation.


The young ones should go in with bitcoin. We are in modern generation and young ones should be able to have some knowledge in bitcoin while they are still on that age. As they get older they have some money to spend in their retirement and they don't have to work hard in offices or job that they want to choose.
They have to change their mindset and focus their time on money making activities rather than spending it on useless things.
Not all the time this kind of opportunity be seen in our life so we should grab it now and focus on this.

Let's don't remove their right for being a kid or teenagers, they just have to choose what they want and that gives them fun. As long as we will educate them about bitcoin I guess that's enough and you will see on how they will be inspired if they want to know more and get into deep digging about bitcoin.

yah its no use prohibiting them to have fun the same also goes for all people not just teenagers. people here often have a belief that if you sell, you lose but wanting something

in exchange for your hardwork is normal on the contrary holding them with the goal that you'll collect as many money as possible is just plainly greed which is not good under

any circumstances. young people not just everyone should be given a choice but it is also a fact that most of them spends their money on useless things. A good solution for

this is to divide your money based on what you want and need. if they choose bitcoin to have a part on that then its fine.
3971  Economy / Economics / Re: Why You Should Never Sell Your Bitcoins Ever on: August 05, 2017, 08:50:39 PM
Reading the responses to the recent topic titled, "I would sell all my bitcoins if…." has left me concerned.

The kinds of responses on that thread reveal a deep misunderstanding of bitcoin and the current monetary system in many of those who are speculating. Let's consider the scenario in which bitcoin reaches $1000 or let's say $10,000 per bitcoin. Many have said they will cash out if bitcoin reaches this point. Why??

If bitcoin reaches $10,000 it will have to be because the fiat currencies of the world are tumbling to worthlessness via a hyperinflation type scenario and bitcoin is the safe haven, which if you know anything about the current monetary systems of the world, you know this is inevitable. (there have been 3800 fiat currencies throughout history and EVERY SINGLE LAST ONE has crashed to worthlessness; a value of zero) Why would you then sell all of your sound money (Bitcoin) for a bunch of fiat money that is inevitably becoming worthless? I don't understand the logic in doing that.

If bitcoin ever reaches $10,000 per bitcoin, you will NEVER see me selling for fiat paper money. You may however see me having a shopping spree at Overstock.com or TigerDirect.com or NewEgg.com! I will be buying things I want with my bitcoin profits DIRECTLY WITH BITCOIN, not selling my bitcoin for paper fiat. Hopefully by then there will be many more options, perhaps even Amazon.com will be accepting bitcoin for goods and I can have my shopping spree there.

Point being, selling bitcoin for dollars seems counterproductive. Why convert your paper fiat currency into sound value storing superior bitcoin, only to sell all of your superior bitcoin back for worthless antiquated fiat currency again? Why not just spend the bitcoin itself to buy what you want instead of taking a loss by converting back into dollars which will inflate away eventually anyway?


I think Bitcoin's $ 10,000 is never going to happen. The truth is I'm still keeping my Bitcoin and I'm waiting for a proper price to sell them. It could be $ 4000 or $ 5000. But now is not the time to sell it because Bitcoin is not really stable

Thats exactly the same mindset people had in bitcoin on its early days. they probably didn't even predicted that the price will rose to $3000+ even $5000 is close in my

opinion. we have reached $2000 and $3000 this year even though theres still half a year. if things continuous to go well $5000 might happen in two years or so or even sooner.

About the stability again, isn't it the one that allows bitcoin to rise? everyone might think its a disadvantage but it can actually be an advantage.
3972  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Exchanges decision to support Bcash might backfire now and help BTC on: August 05, 2017, 07:43:53 PM
well op has a point but in the first place for an altcoin to grow, it needs an exchange site particularly with large volume as we all know trades is the most efficient way to circulate

it so i don't see any any reason why would an exchange refuse to add in in their list of cryptocoins. the exchanges profits from the trading fees so if people continues and wants

to do trade with this particular coin they will gain profits, and thats another reason why it would benefit the certain exchange.
3973  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are You SATISFIED With AUGUST 1? on: August 05, 2017, 07:03:03 PM
yes i am satisfied. at first i was already prepared for the worst but it turns out good in the end. now bitcoin is pumping although many articles predicted that it may not hit $3000

this year. i'm really glad that the community comes up of a solution which is bip91. the only ones who are dissatisfied about this are people who haven't dumped their bch. i don't

know if that is just fud to lower the price but anyway since its also part of the result that occured in August first, i think i'll be watching this coin rather than dump  it.
3974  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: August 05, 2017, 01:07:01 PM
my future is depend on bitcoin.I hold some btc for future.
Don't do that, what if bitcoin will fail then you will not gonna get what you wish for your future.
I have investment with bitcoin and I think it will give me a great return in the future, if I fail I have a back up plan which is to venture in real business where I can use my expertise and passion to do it, but I will be back again with traditional way of making money.

I always like a new one which is bitcoin because I wanted to be part of the history and I am hoping it will be a major success.

yah it is not certain that bitcoin will keep rising always but there is a high chance that it will for a few more years. investing in bitcoin for your future is not a bad thing unless you

invested almost all of your money, now thats too risky. like what the guy said you have to have a back up plan incase the first one fails since your future is what we're talking

about. what i'm doing now is to keep at least half of one bitcoin for a long term investment
3975  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many people are asking you about Bitcoin now? on: August 05, 2017, 09:25:58 AM
I am sure my phone will start ringing 24/7 now. all these people who said I look into it but didnt have "time" will now bang their heads

I don't know if you mean it literally or not but your phone ringing 24/7 is literally impossible. yah the growing interest about bitcoin on various people is certainly there but lets be

honest here, only a few of them have this persistence to learn and the others has either have given up without trying or had given up after trying. in the first place for people

paricularly a large number of people to ask you about bitcoin, you have to tell them first that you know it in whatever way.
3976  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I hope BCH will be pumped so I can get rid of it and stick to the real BTC on: August 05, 2017, 08:13:30 AM
That's all I have to say about this altcoin... it's going nowhere - you don't even have a trustful wallet for it yet.

It's already dumped. It's going down day by day. But I hope it will pump again. But It will not pump so high. And It can not compete with BTC. Because BTC is now $3100+ and soon It will be $3500+. And I thing BCH does not a trustful wallet. That's why it can't be more popular that BTC.


well it already pumped when its launched, thats why some users are upset about not being able to dump their bch. but we still don't know if it will increase greatly as well as the

competition about bitcoin. every altcoin have a chance to compete but sadly none of them got closer to bitcoin as of now. that being said, that fact that bch is at disadvantage

now is true because of its low support but isn't that the same for bitcoin in its early age?. we'll see what the devs will do in the coming months particularly abou the wallets

because it is really fishy, i know some people who owned btc before the fork still haven't claimed their bch because of that.
3977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So everyone tells you to take your Bitcoins off the exchange before the fork!! on: August 04, 2017, 08:30:40 PM
You're very naive to be bitching about people giving you the best advice you could ever get. If an exchange holds your bitcoins then on August 2nd decides they're going to keep everyone's BCH then you're screwed. That's it. At least you still have them. They were never 'worth' $727 anyways. Don't consider it a loss because most people still haven't figured out where to import their private keys at this point.

fair point, i'm sure he's just mad and envious of the people who dumped their bch after the fork. these people really. in the first place that advice aims to secure your bitcoin as

we don't know what will happen on august first. this advise is fairly true nothing wrong with that, it served its purpose and that is to secure your bitcoins. now if you want to take

advantage of this to earn profits, you have to take a risk and predict something which is the most possible thing to happen on the given date. one of the risks is what the guy

above me stated. People moved their bitcoins to exchanges because they prioritized their coins safety now if you want to get profits the you don't know what you're doing at least

do a research about what youre about to do. Don't blame others who gave their advices because you had a choice and will always will since its just an advice.
3978  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin survive? on: August 04, 2017, 05:57:27 PM
Bitcoin can survive because it receives enough support from the internet world. But we'll never know how long it can because there will other cryptocurrency that will strive to match, or even overpower the bitcoin's capability

Well i have to agree that the support it receives and its growing popularity is the most difficult to beat for an altcoin. thats the reason why up until now we haven't seen a real or

noticeable rather, competition between bitcoin and a certain altcoin. if it takes this long for the people today to trust in bitcoin, i'm fairly sure that the same will also go for others

unless a different thing might happen, something that never happened into crypto world. if its regarding the bch, i'm sure it will survive because bch is just an altcoin anyway,

technically there is no change in bitcoin.
3979  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Would you keep Bitcoin cash, or sell them? on: August 02, 2017, 04:43:58 AM
Despite the statements of various entities of not supporting this coin, it is doing well for now but we still don't know if it'll continue in the coming months. in terms of market cap

it is now on the top 3 among all cryptocurrencies, i think that it will still increase considering that bittrex accepted them, polo said they won't but i think they will. overall this coin

is worth the watch so not gonna dump it anytime now.
3980  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Is there a need for more escrows on this forum? on: July 31, 2017, 05:41:28 PM
So at the moment are only 12 escrows all over the forum, only 5 active per day and you get an reply sometimes in days, I think the forum should have at least 20 or 30.

i think we have more than 12 if you include the campaign managers, i heard they are also accepting some transactions. but yeah since not everyone is available and most of

them have a certain criteria for accepting transactions e.g. some might only accept small ones or big ones etc. so the more escrows the better. i don't really get why should the

need of escrows has to be stopped when there is a reduction of scams, i mean that shouldn't stop us for being alert in scam instead we should strive to maintain it or better, to

improve again and again.
