before i knew cryptocurrency, i already knew forex first
but i don't know the stock market,

if i think the difference is
forex: more volatile, in one day there can be a very high increase, the next day a sharp decrease.
many speculan inside, because forex more famous than cryptocurrency.
when the market up or down, you can still get the profit.

cryptocurrency: more stable, if it is going up it will tend to rise, but if it goes down it will tend to go down,
few speculan,
you can get the profit just from buying if you sell at a higher price than the purchase/buying price.

Indeed it is difficult but if we serious it is not that difficult. I just got my 1 post merit yesterday, and I'm very grateful.
The key is to keep the spirit and keep making useful posts. Maybe you can read from this Merit
 Stats to get an example of a good post that usually get merit.

The bitcoin market is similar to the principle of the currency/fiat market in general.
Will rise if there is a lot of demand and will go down if there are many offers.
So what controls the bitcoin market is the market itself, especially those who have big money (usually called whales) that can manipulate the price of bitcoin itself, just as paper currency is manipulated by large banks in the world.

Its interesting to read.
The part of "Manipulation" i don't know whether its true or not, but some point it sounds reasonable.
Hear or read the news its good, but my suggestion is dont listen to the issue you hear but listen to your heart and believe in yourself.

I have never experienced it,
But maybe it just short and temporarly daily maintenance buddy.
Even large websites require maintenance periodically. Don't worry about it.
But always check the domain is correct bitcointalk.org or not, and if you doubt you can change your password for your security sure.

Iya karena biasanya mereka ingin membuat / menyesuaikan nama akun sesuai dengan project ICO mereka gan.

Dan biasanya mereka yang benar-benar serius akan membeli "cooper member" meskipun masih newbie sekalipun, untuk menghilangkan batasan member newbie, yaitu dimana rank newbie tidak bisa posting gambar, ada batasan waktu tunggu post dan PM dan batasan yang lainnya.
Sehingga menunjukkan bahwa mereka serius dan profesional dalam project mereka.

Jadi tidak masalah akun baru atau tidaknya, yang perlu dilihat lebih ke project ICOnya aja.

First of all, you have to understand in every investment there is always have a risk, so just invest from your secondary capital not your main capital.
If you okey with that you can keep going

The answer is bitcoin, because it more safer and stable than another alt coin. Because of that bitcoin is suitable for long term investment.
But if you want to try for short term investment you can choose alt coin, there are many good alt coin, you also can check the other 10 top coin at https://coinmarketcap.com if you would invest to another alt coin.

Peraturan posting agar tidak dihapus dan dianggap spam bisa dilihat disini gan
saran saya, agan belajar belajar dulu saja dan buat postingan yang informatif, konstruktif dan berkontribusi untuk forum, jangan terlalu terpaku sama merit.
Merit itu bisa didapet dari buat thread baru atau juga bisa balas/replay dari thread yang udah ada.

Cara membuat postingan yang bagus disini .
Misal agan merasa udah buat postingan bagus tapi belum ada yang memberi merit bisa di posting disini untuk di review sama yang lain dan kalau layak bakal dikasih meritnya.
Atau bisa juga dengan memohon review dari moderator @sapta, agan bisa request review dari beliau juga;
Semoga bisa membantu.

Maybe this thread somehow can help newbies in some way:

Two of them are good choice,
but maybe i can suggest you to buy bitcoin and trade it. because it more simple and fast to get the profit than mining because it will cost you time to learn mining. besides mining difficulties have increased due to the increasing number of miners.

wah bisa ya ternyata, saya kira perlu manual refresh begitu,, terima kasih banyak ya gan, jadi lebih enak kalau buat mantau gini caranya.

Great to see PRiVCY listed at CMC, partnership with Testament and many new added fitur in web wallet.
So proud to be one of the community of PRiVCY, great job team.

very good logic, im agree on that.
He couldnt sell them again, after he stole it, because no one will buy it after stollen.
and if he wanted to do that, he could do it when Bitcoin was booming in 2017.

Kalau berdasarkan pengalaman, memang masuk di exchanger susah gan,
pertama biasanya harus sedia dana besar (misal salah satunya mercatox seinget saya yg paid listing biayanya 5BTC gan, padahal itu masih exchanger biasa gan, belum seperti binance ato bittrex yang notabene top exchanger,
yang kedua, biaya saja tidak cukup namun harus di vote dan didukung oleh komunitas membernya, dan biasanya votenya bersaing, jadi  ICO yang mempunyai vote paling tinggi yang bisa masuk terlebih dahulu.

Bitcoin is a digital currency created in 2009. It's decentralized, it means there's no government, institution (like a bank) or other authority that controls it.
It can be used to buy or sell items from people and companies that accept bitcoin as payment, but it differs in several key ways from traditional currencies.
Yes, you can turn bitcoin into cash with exchanger.

Usually the coin expected increase dramatically when they enter to higher exchange or top exchange. so when there is a news about the coin will list in higher exchange or top exchange, most likely the prize of the coin will rise.

maaf agan-agan, mau tanya apakah ada cara supaya ada notifikasi otomatis jika ada thread baru yang dibuat ?
jadi tidak perlu selalu refresh begitu, supaya tidak ketinggalan informasi jika misal ada update atau thread baru.
terima kasih sebelumnya untuk jawaban suhu disini.

Akhir akhir ini harga eth cenderung mengalamai trend penurunan dan sepertinya bukan hanya eth saja tapi terjadi pada hampir kebanyakan alt coin yg lain, kemungkinan bakal sulit kalau untuk bisa mencapai harga tertinggi di tahun lalu, namun berharap saja karena masih ada waktu untuk melihat perkembangan eth yang biasanya menjelang akhir-akhir tahun harga mengalami kenaikan.

kalau saya sendiri cenderung ngehindari airdrop yang meminta data diri bahkan foto ktp semacam ini gan, karena itu bersifat pribadi jadi saya tidak bisa menyerahkannya kepada orang lain yang bahkan tidak saya kenal, karena sekarang rawan penipuan, kita tidak tahu data pribadi kita bakal disalahgunakan atau tidak. lebih baik mencari airdrop atau mungkin bounty yang lain yang tidak meminta data-data pribadi apalagi kalau sampai foto ktp.

Bagus gan, kita pasti mendukung apalagi bila visi dan misinya jelas dan baik, juga timnya juga berkompeten, pasti akan menjadi salah satu koin yang besar nantinya gan dan pasti akan mempunyai nilai harga yang baik nantinya.
