There were 44 coins then and only really 3 of them have gone on to be a success.
y'know what? i didn't even check the values of the lower tiers. i thought it was the top 40, but actually it's every single listed one which makes the current amount of noise even more incredible. i'm not sure whether that means what's up there now will get stronger or whether it'll be just as brutal at the top as it is down at the bottom. as things heat up i can imagine ever greater concentration into a smaller number, and a massive sub caste of thousands of coins going nowhere. i don't see who or what would keep 95% or more of those alive. Irrational actors in an irrational market is what would keep most of these currencies alive. Once all the huge speculation is done there will be a huge drawback, but the projects that will remain will be credible for sure. |

Trading is a matter of timing and you have to show flexibility if you are willing to gain profits in the short term. I follow the principle of the great investor Warren Buffet, he says "Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful". As we have recently experienced the rally in the price in the last quarter of the last year, it was the time to sell the investment and now we are going through the correction phase, it is the time to buy in my opinion.
Warren Buffett is probably the greatest investor of our era, it is incredible that he is able to synthesize such a great wisdom in such few words we see many people panicking right now about the price of bitcoin and selling for a bad price if we were to follow his advice then this is the moment to buy and that is the right move since bitcoin is really cheap, we can get a lot more of it that we could some months ago, so as we can see you cannot go wrong following his advice. Greatest investor perhaps, but he has zero clue about cryptocurrencies and because of that I wouldn't follow all of his advice blindly. Some certainly makes sense especially the one about not investing in a company or project you don't understand, I fully agree with that principle. I would however, disagree that Bitcoin and cryptos are useless and there is no space for them in this world. |

That is like asking why Bitcoin mining would be popular in Canada or any other cold frozen country. It is because the cost of electricity can be negated by the cold outdoors, a pretty neat natural way to mine and to keep costs quite low.

You would think it is simple and it is if you can find a peer to transfer to and get cash for. However, going through that process seems tough if you go through regulated exchanges. The only way to accumulate BTC without knowledge of authorities or exchanges is again through peers. Tough to get a lot of BTC that way I would imagine, but I have never sought it out myself.

Just like Aaron Rodgers told the Packers a couple years back R-E-L-A-X people! You can either sell now at a loss, or have faith the market will return to a bull one and enjoy the profits later.

I had a blood clot on my brain in late January and stroked out.By the time I got out of hospitals rehab a month later I’m seeing 85% losses, with no end in site. I can’t ride this rollercoaster any lower. I’ll be happy to escape with some profitslosses now rather than ending up underwater. Good luck to all.
FYP, and seriously that is really crappy that happened to you. But I don't think everything will go to zero, some of your holdings would surely have gone back up. Look at today for example, there was a nice bounce and it could be the beginning of something bigger. |

I am going to make an assumption and say you have some leftover BTC and are trying out how to check its value? In that case you can either check coinmarketcap for the value of BTC * how much you have. Either that or use https://blockchain.info/ to check your account balance. |

It is possible but I fear a couple year bear market and if that happens Ethereum won't be worth more than $500 when this year is over. Will be interesting to see who wins the battle, I have patience and will wait out whatever storm if needed.

They are missing out on some revenue sure but you also have to look at how their platforms are performing. Facebook's CEO Mark just announced he will be selling 13 billion worth of shares over the next year and a bit. The price dipped by 5% today in stock markets (that is huge for those markets), so you see they have to protect their platform first. Facebook is slowly dying it seems, and again it is more important to protect the platform then it is to worry about ad revenue.

This project is very interesting and original. However I have found no information about how much money has been already raised in the ICO. Usually you can find this kind of information in the ICO's website, but I didn't.
We are already in the pre-sale and most of the important contributions that we have had are private so we can't say any specific raised number, but and we are extremely happy with the result and how things are going. We'll announce the official cap raised in the presale when we close it. We'll do all the ICO through https://cryptonomos.com/ . they have believed in our project and will bet strong to reach the hard cap, which is right now 40M USD. This is good news for participants! https://cryptonomos.com/ usually doing KYC procedure. Will you do this procedure? Also is the KYC for investors alone, or do bounty participants have to do KYC as well? It is important detail to know before entering a crowdsale, please let us know soon! |

They already did this though last week, don't know why the noise is coming now and all of a sudden. Seriously makes me think the prices are being manipulated by the media and not because they want it to crash, but because the people with power can. Makes me sick to my stomach some days, but guess you just gotta be smarter and above it.

Scary that out of the first 10 or so people nobody is following the wallets. We need to follow the wallets to hold these people accountable, that is why there is a transparent blockchain in the first place!

Never going to happen, but what will happen is those who are in areas that have higher costs of living will cease to do them. It is like any industry, if you can't make enough money people move on. And this is no different, the equilibrium will be found constantly, and will always be evolving to find a new equilibrium.

Don't know how good they pay but you can also check out Gambling section in Economics. Economics>Marketplace>Gambling. You should be able to find a couple of threads that offer newbie sig spots. First one I clicked had it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1268718.0 |

year is almost changed, what have you got from bitcoin this year (2017), I personally benefited a lot from this crypto currency, I am an unemployed because in my country difficult to get a job, I really helped by the bitcoin, I can give a little money to my parents and it makes me happy to help the family economy  , and my hope in the next year I hope to be better in doing all the tasks and hope to be able to work in the real world, what about you? and what motivation mu for the year to come? Bitcoin literally saved and turned my life around and I am speechless as to how I feel about it. Words can't describe how good it feels to go from nothing to something by using the resources you have around you. Everyday I count my stars and acknowledge I am a blessed individual. |

It is impossible, even if you invested $100 in ethereum or stratis in the past, you have to wait for a long time and today's new comers want to get rich in months. If it is possible now I am sure that it will take at least two years.
Love to do "impossible" possible  I LOVE the spirit you have, don't lose it and anything is truly possible. Keep using that hater fuel as kerosene to your fire, let it ignite you up!  |

No one uses bitcoin as a normal currency anymore, it's the digital gold, everyone knows that now. A lot of people invest in gold even though it is not that stable either, sure it's not as volatile as bitcoin but its value does jump or crash too. Stability is subjective, even dollars and euros don't have a stable value however no one really cares what the eur/dollar conversion is unless they are trading. People use dollars without think of their vale in other currencies, 1 dollar is 1 dollar and that's what matters.
Never say nobody because I am that unicorn then I suppose. I don't use funds often but I like to use my Bitcoin as intended from the beginning, especially given the low fees right now. I would still be apart of Bitcoin if it wasn't as volatile but I won't lie it wouldn't be as fun then. |

You mention FAITH & HOPE a lot and I would like to address that. Any time you are investing in something, especially something new you are using a lot of those two characteristics because this is not a proven thing. Building on that, just because somebody invested in something first and is making profit doesn't make it a ponzi scheme. Yes that is one of the characteristics but you can't just apply it all willy nilly, that is what we call a fallacy.

While zero fees are not possible, next to zero is and we are heading there soon. Btw the reason BTC seems like you can't use it everyday is because people will say the tech is behind. And the tech is behind because Bitcoin has to be more conservative than all the other blockchains (stands to lose more). Ergo, we should expect Bitcoin to roll out features slower but when they do, they will be powerful believe me. Don't know how long LN will take fully to roll out (2-3 years) but once it is rolled out, it will be exceptional for Bitcoin.

Admin, kindly update the Announcement thread so other investors are aware that Tutellus is already migrated in NEM blockchain. The first page still indicates that it is in ERC20 Token. Thank you. Still not updated Tutellus team, we should change that before people start calling the project FUD and spreading wrong information. You know people will jump at any chance to throw credibility of a project. |
