Hi everyone, I think that many of us hold more than one coin and this requires more than one wallet is this true?and if so, the question is, are there a wallet that can save all kinds of cryptocurrencey coins or I need to have a separate wallet for each of my coins?
Sorry if itvwas a repeated question, but i really need to know.Waiting for your answers.
Thanks a lot.

بلاشك  هناك العديد من العملات الرقمية الواعدة التي يمكن الاعتماد عليها في تحقيق الربحيه ولكن المشكلة هي كيفية اختيار هذه العملات . فتلك هي المشكلة الأكبر والتى تحتمل مخاطرة كبيرة.ولكن عليك فقط اختيار العملة الواعدة طبقا لمستويات ارتفاعها وهبوط اذا هبطت. بالنسبة الي فإني احتى عملة Deeponion  فهي عملة واهدى حدا حيث بدأت بما يقل عن واحد دولار والآن هي قاربت 15 دولار للعملة الواحدة.

I think this is an early question to be asked,as bitcoin is not officially assigned in banks or any financial establishments around the world,I think it is too far to use bitcoin in supermarkets. We should work harder to make it used and assigned for financial services then we can ask about using it in any other business.
Good luck mate.

Hi mate
This is a good question from you, but I think it is late some how,  as you see there are many types of altcoins everywhere,but which of them is good, as for me if I were you I will invest all my mining skills and abilities in DEEPONION, as I think it is one of the best promising altcoins these days.
Go mine in Deeponion and don't waste any more time

Of course mate, I have no doubt that bitcoin will be the most important way to invest in the near future, as we all see bitcoin has made the best benefit for many people around the world in just few years, so I suppose that it will keep going in the same way to be assigned and to be officially licensed to banks near,this will make it more and more profitable.

2018 did not begin on a good note for Bitcoin as the monster rally leading to Christmas crashed, but it made a bit of a recovery in and among a boom for a number of altcoins. However, Monday has not been a good day for the entire cryptocurrency market.

Looking down the graphs of the top cryptocurrencies, you’d be hard-pressed to find one in the black as all of the top 10 coins hit a downward trend, led by Ripple which had dropped by almost 28 percent over the last 24 hours.

Red across the board
Coinmarketcap showed some unpleasant numbers for all top 10 coins as Bitcoin was registered as being down 11 percent, Ripple down 28 percent and Bitcoin Cash down 20 percent.
Ripple’s losses were by and far the biggest, especially considering the growth the coin experienced in the past few weeks. Ripple reached $3 a coin a few days ago after it was added to Bloomberg’s price terminal in late December.
South Korea also recently pushed up the altcoin market as the mania strike the Asian country with Ripple’s doubling up attributed to South Korea being taken with the Blockchain-based payment solution for enterprise-level global payment transactions.

A bubble in the Ripple?
The low Ripple numbers may be down to the fact that Coinmarketcap does not including information from some South Korean exchanges, but there are other concerns afoot.

“The reason ripple is surging so much is it’s a bubble,” said Erik Voorhees, CEO of digital asset exchange ShapeShift and a vocal advocate for Bitcoin as a way to separate money and the state. “Testing crypto with banks doesn’t make sense. The whole idea of crypto is you don’t need a bank.”

The technology behind Ripple is aimed at large institutions, which has given it an air of legitimacy which in turn has spurred the price and build a hype for investors.

However, cryptocurrency enthusiasts say that centralization is the exact opposite of what the technology of the digital currencies should be about.

Altcoin season
Many saw the recent dip in Bitcoin’s dominance as the reemergence of altcoins, with Ripple, and even other minor coins like Verge stealing the limelight. However, this recent dip seems to suggest that there are still strong ties between many coins to the dominant force that is Bitcoin.

The adage goes that: ‘A rising tide lifts all boats,’ and the same goes for a falling one. With Bitcoin still being the biggest boat in the bay, it makes sense that should an issue affect it and its price, other coins in the crypto market will also feel the effect.

Famed stock picker Ronnie Moas recently predicted that there would be a reverse on this so-called ‘altcoin season,’ and perhaps, this is it as everyone goes down before the most established digital currency again rises up.

Even though cryptocurrencies are getting more and more exposure, their legislation seems to be a grey area for most governments, especially when it comes to declaring your income in digital currencies. The Internal Revenue Service, the US tax collection agency, has issued Notice 2014-21 stating that Bitcoin and altcoins are subjects to federal income and payroll taxes. So what to do with your crypto money and how to declare your taxes right?

Records
Let’s start with the dreary subject of records. Yes, that applies to crypto investors too. You’d better have some if you are thinking about taxes. If you’ve ever tried to tell the IRS “I lost my receipt,” you don’t want to do it a second time.

The IRS has heard every excuse in the book. While it is not without sympathy, you’ll find it far easier not having to go to the additional effort of proving something by another means. Periodically, the IRS issues reminders to taxpayers regarding the importance of safeguarding your tax records.

That’s especially true in cases of natural disasters that make traditional record-keeping go haywire. But think of it year-round wherever you are. The IRS suggests creating a backup set of records stored away from the originals. It is good advice for crypto investors.

Selling some assets?
If you are sitting on some big gains, you might consider how your tax picture will look for the entire year. It isn’t too soon to start thinking this way. In fact, try to do it long before year-end so you can make adjustments. You might want to sell or hedge some, even if you think the market is still headed up.

There is a lot more than taxes involved in such decisions. But it can be wise to at least think about it. For example, what if your tax year already has a big capital loss in it, or you have a big carryover loss from prior years? In general, unused capital losses can be used to absorb up to $3,000 per year in ordinary income.

But unless you have capital gains to offset your capital losses that $3,000 would be the extent of your tax benefit. Some people sit for years and years with unused capital losses that carryover each year. So, if you also have unrealized capital gains, you might consider selling some gain assets, to be able to absorb your losses. Run some numbers and see how it looks.

And what exactly are you selling?
Another topic as tax time nears is to ask whether you really know what you are selling. That is, if you have 100 Bitcoins and you sell 10, which 10 did you sell? There is no perfect answer to this question. Most of the tax law considers shares of stock, not cryptocurrency.  

However, many advisers think that the same kinds of rules should be applied in the case of multiple crypto assets that you hold. If so, specific identification of what you are selling, when you bought it, and for what purchase price, is likely to be the cleanest. But that may not be possible.

Some people use an averaging convention, where you essentially average your cost across a number of purchases. Consistency and record-keeping are important. You don’t want the IRS to claim that you denied the government its fair share of each sale. And remember, if you are claiming long-term capital gain treatment, being able to prove that you held the cryptocurrency for more than a year before selling is key.

Loans with interest and hedges
Loaning money shouldn’t be a taxable event to either the borrower or the lender, except for interest payments. So, can you loan out your cryptocurrency to people? You can, but the question is whether that loan will be treated the same as a loan of money by the IRS.

The jury is still out on that question. The IRS says cryptocurrency is property for tax purposes. You don’t want the loan and the repayment (of different cryptocurrency?) to be treated as taxable dispositions. Some of it may depend on your documents, and how much you make it look and feel like a real loan.

Hedges of cryptocurrency are another hot topic to consider. Hedges can help to avoid some of the volatility that has characterized the various crypto markets. But be careful that you are doing your best to avoid a disposition, meaning a sale for tax purposes, that you don’t want.

Gifts
The holidays may be over, but probably everyone in your family would still like some Bitcoin or other crypto issues. The prices have been so ever-present in the news, that gifts and donations are still very much in the news. But is it smart tax-wise?

A charitable contribution would be the best type of transfer. If you give to a qualified charity, you should get an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the crypto. If you bought for $500, and donate to a 501(c)(3) charity when it is worth $15,000, you should get a $15,000 charitable contribution deduction. What’s more, you won’t have to pay the capital gain tax on the $14,500 spread.

Giving to private parties is not as impressive. The same gift to your niece gets you no tax deduction. And it requires you to file a gift tax return since the gift is worth more than $15,000. For 2018, $15,000 is the amount of so-called “annual exclusion” gifts you can give to any number of people each year with no reporting required.

Any gifts over that $15,000 amount require a gift tax return, even though you probably won’t pay any gift tax. You normally would use up a small portion of your lifetime exclusion from gift and estate tax. For 2018, that number just went up dramatically. The amount you can transfer tax-free during your life or on death just went up to $11.2 mln per person. That is $22.4 mln per married couple.

Forms 1099
Finally, don’t forget about the coming onslaught of IRS Forms 1099. Normally, these not-so-fun little tax forms arrive around the end of January, reporting income paid to you in the previous calendar tax year. The IRS says that wages paid to employees using virtual currency are taxable, must be reported on a Form W-2, and are subject to federal income tax withholding and payroll taxes.

Similarly, payments using virtual currency made to independent contractors are taxable to them, and payers who are engaged in business must issue Form 1099. A payment made using virtual currency is subject to Form 1099 reporting just like any other payment made in property. That means if a person in business pays virtual currency worth $600 or more to an independent contractor for services, Form 1099 is required.

If you are a recipient of Form 1099, as most everyone is, keep track of them. Each one gets reported to the IRS and applicable state tax authorities. If you don’t report or otherwise address the reported income on your tax return, you can expect that the IRS will follow up.

This may seem confusing, but you shouldn’t worry. The IRS is usually much more lenient to those who fill in taxes, even with mistakes, rather than to those who avoid doing it at all.

The New York Stock Exchange has filed for permission to launch a number of Bitcoin-related exchange-traded funds (ETF) just one week into 2018.

As reported by BusinessInsider, a filing sent to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission shows that the exchange intends to launch five different ETFs offering ‘bull and bear’ futures contracts on the Arca stock exchange.

These EFTs will be linked to the price of Bitcoin futures listed on the CME and CBOE exchanges, which launched Bitcoin futures contracts in December 2017:

“The target benchmark’s value will be calculated as the last sale price published by the CME or the CBOE or any other US exchange that subsequently trades bitcoin futures contracts on or before 11 a.m. E.T.”

Bull Funds
The three ‘Bull Funds’ are categorized as 1.25X, 1.5X and 2X, offering 100 percent, 150 percent and 200 percent returns on the given contract.

As stated in the document sent to the SEC, the funds are not intended to be traded any longer than a day – and offer percentage returns based on the given contract entered into:

“According to the Registration Statement, the 1.25X Bull Fund, 1.5X Bull Fund and 2X Bull Fund seeks daily leveraged investment results (before fees and expenses) that correlate positively to either 125 percent, 150 percent or 200 percent the daily return of the target benchmark.”

However, investors stand to a chance of facing the same multipliers in loses, should the market move against their contracts:

“Conversely, its value on a given day (before fees and expenses) should lose approximately 1.25 times, 1.5 times or 2 times, as applicable, as much on a percentage basis as the level of the target benchmark when the benchmark declines.”

Bear Funds
As the name suggests, the ‘Bears Funds’ allow investors the chance to leverage against a decline in the value of Bitcoin. The two funds offered are 1X and 2X, offering 100 percent and 200 percent gains should the contract meet its target on the given day of trading.

Once again, should the benchmark rise in value, Bear Fund investors stand to suffer loses compounded by the multiplier (1X or 2X) they’ve agreed to, as per the description of the 2X Bear Fund:

“If the 2X Bear Fund is successful in meeting its investment objective, its value on a given day should gain approximately two times as much on a percentage basis as the level of the target benchmark when the target benchmark declines. Conversely, its value on a given day should lose approximately two times as much on a percentage basis as the level of the target benchmark when the target benchmark rises.”

Keeping up with the game
Should the NYSE be permitted to launch these ETFs, they will be the third American exchange to offer Bitcoin futures contracts. CME and CBOE have been trading futures since December.

Wasting no time in sending their application to the SEC, this move shows that there is plenty of interest in Bitcoin by Wall Street money.

While the likes of Merrill Lynch have denied its financial advisors from offering clients Bitcoin-related investments, exchanges are looking to set up of various offerings.

Once a number of ETFs and trading options have been available for a while, there will be more information on how well these options are trading. Given that knowledge, could we see a change in sentiment by financial institutions whose clients are looking to enter the cryptocurrency market?

The following article is an exclusive contribution to CoinDesk’s 2017 in Review.
Without a shadow of a doubt, this past year has been huge for cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology. Whatever the future may hold for Satoshi’s brainchild and all that it has given birth to, 2017 will forever hold a singular position on the timeline of events in the crypto world.
But as a new year approaches, the urge to get caught up in all that has happened over the past 12 months could prevent us from considering what 2017 did not bring – and why.
Admittedly, it is hard not to be mesmerized by the numbers: the more than 1,300 cryptocurrencies, the $700-plus billion market cap they have produced or the eye-popping ICO raises of Tezos, Filecoin, Bancor and others – oh yes, and the gut-wrenching ride of bitcoin’s price as it climbed over $20 000 – and fell back down.
And yet, it is worthwhile taking a step back and considering what is still missing and what exactly this might mean for the year that is almost upon us.

1. We did not see mass adoption of blockchain for enterprise
2. We did not see a clear distinction between blockchain, tokens and cryptocurrencies
3. We have not yet seen self-regulation take hold
4. We do not have inter-chain operability.

Dogecoin, which started as a parody cryptocurrency, has now broken the $1 bln market cap showing how far virtual currencies have come since Bitcoin’s inception in 2009.
Four years after the Bitcoin genesis block was mined, programmer Billy Markus coded his very own cryptocurrency in 2013. With the help of Jackson Palmer, a product manager and data analyst at Adobe, Dogecoin was brought to life, meme and all.
Taking up the popular internet meme of the Shiba Inu dog, the creator envisioned the cryptocurrency to be a friendly online payment system, although its rise in popularity may not have been intended.
Nevertheless, in the space of five years, Dogecoin has grown into its own vibrant community of users. Over time, Dogecoin has become popular as a ‘tipping system’ among its users – as stated on the website:

One of the most popular uses for Dogecoin is “tipping” fellow internet-goers who create or share great content. Think of it as a more meaningful “like” or upvote, with real value that can be used all across the internet.
The cryptocurrency has no limit on the amount of coins that can be created by mining. At the time of writing, there are over 112 bln Dogecoins in circulation. While a single Dogecoin is worth no more than $0.01, a single cent, the total market capitalization is now over $1.19 bln – amounting to 72,423 Bitcoin.

Pop-culture coin
Much like Cointelegraph is known for its bold artwork, Dogecoin took up an Internet meme as its ‘mascot’ of sorts. The word ‘doge’ is a popular internet term for a dog, which started out as a simple misspelling of the word in a TV series back in 2005.
As knowyourmeme.com explains, the term doge was married with the picture of a Shiba Inu dog on Reddit back in 2010, leading it to become one of the most well-known internet memes.
Its association with a cryptocurrency came about in 2014 and the rest is history – although Doge and its various memes would have provided constant internet joys with or without a virtual currency.

The XRP price is way higher than it was at the start of the month even thriving amid yesterday’s 20 percent crypto market drop-off. Ripple now has over 75 commercially deploying customers and over 100 currently on their roster. But more than just establishing a customer base, Ripple has used strategic partnerships to generate buzz. For instance, the recently announced partnership with American Express which was many Americans’ first encounter with Ripple and immediately situated the brand as a reliable financial service, rather than a weird or intimidated new technology. Ripple isn’t created, or “mined,” by users. The company has control. It created 100 billion ripple coins initially, and 38 billion of them are in circulation at the moment. Ripple management can release up to 1 billion coins per month, which experts predict could oversaturate the market. With the Cryptocurrency gaining more popularity attracted even more in investors. Here are top 5 reasons why Ripple’s value is going higher than ever.

TRANSACTION
One of the key things to remember is Ripple isn’t created, or “mined,” by users. The company has control. If a sending address has one or more transactions queued, that sender can “push” the existing queued transactions into the open ledger by submitting a new transaction with a high enough transaction cost to pay for all of them. Specifically, the new transaction must decrease the total transaction cost of the queued transactions from the same sending address, including the new transaction, to cover the open ledger cost of each transaction as it gets added to the ledger. The total must include the decreased open ledger cost for each new transaction.

2ND HIGHEST MARKET CAP HOLDER

Market caps are a good indicator of the gains and losses investors are making over time. Market Capitalization is one way to rank the relative size of a cryptocurrency. It’s calculated by multiplying the Price by the Circulating Supply.
Market  Cap = Price X Circulating Supply.

Circulating  Supply  is  the  best  approximation  of  the  number  of  coins that are circulating in the  market and in  the  general  public’s  hands.  Total  Supply  is  the  total  amount  of  coins  in existence  right  now (minus any coins that have been verifiably burned). Max  Supply  is  the best  approximation  of  the  maximum amount  of  coins that  will  ever  exist  in  the  lifetime of the cryptocurrency.

FAST LOW AMOUNT TRANSACTION ACCEPTANCE

The current minimum transaction cost required by the network for a standard transaction is 0.00001 XRP (10 drops). It sometimes increases due to higher than usual load. Some transactions though have different rates for e.g –
Reference Transaction(Most transactions) – 10 drops
Key Reset Transaction – 0 drops
Multi-Signed Transaction – 10 * number of signatures provided
Escrow-Finish Transaction with Fulfillment
These low costs have made it very popular.

LOW PRICE CRYPTOCURRENCY

The current price of Ripple XRP is $3.77 USD. With a price this low compare it to the current price of Bitcoin which is $15.038 USD. Now at this point of time why would anyone want to invest almost 15000 in a coin which has been around since years than to rather invest in a new coin with price of just $3.77. As the Ripple’s low price would provide huge benefits very a really small amount thus making the cryptocurrency more popular for newbies. Even if they face loss in future as the amount being small the investors don’t have much to lose other than their spirits.

SECURE AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND

The openness with which the Ripple network operates has, on the other hand, also allowed for vulnerabilities to develop. Researchers at Purdue University have found that, although the core of the network remains highly liquid, that the structure also allows for attacks on certain nodes within the network to cripple some users’ access to funds. In fact, some 50,000 wallets may be immediately at risk if such an attack were to occur. But the openness exists for a reasons. It is because of the Ripples’ Bug bounty program which was introduced way before  the XRP was even launched. This allowed developers to find security loopholes with some bounty rewards and making it secure even before it was launched.

ETHEREUM CLASSIC PRICE PREDICTION
Ethereum Classic Was launched July 2017 with very low price of $2.2 USD and joining family of Ethereum it showing very noticeable growth rate from last 3 weeks on December month, as ETC prices reach on time high on 21 December 2017 with 42.72 and then in cryptocurrency crash along others it started showing fluctuation in price with limited range of $28 USD to $35 USD which become attention seeker for investor point of view, This cryptocurrency is based on Open source blockchain in which some newly launched features added like Smart contact and also provide to user Decentralized computing which uses ETC as symbol for trade exchange, as Ethereum classic was facing some issue in system in October month in which prices started dropping with huge drop ratio then to avoid of DoS attack they Introduced ECIP-1050 and also changes monetary policy with unlimited token emission, so right now Ethereum classic giving tough competition to ICON, Lisk, and Bitconnect.

Year   Ethereum classic Price Prediction
End of 2018   165 USD
End of 2019   810 USD
End of 2020   5108 USD
Note: Above Value set by calculation 3-year movie average.

good job guys, I am one of those who waits for all of your posts and news every single hour, wish you and your project good luck, go ahead

2018 will certainly be an exciting year for Bitcoin, at least technology-wise; major advances have been made to the Lightning Network, the second layer which aims to scale bitcoin for the masses. The project is expected to be completed sometime next year, which would enable instant and nearly free transactions. Schnorr Signatures are also on the horizon, which would restructure signatures in bitcoin transactions to reduce transaction size and thus, fees.

This doesn’t mean that the Bitcoin community can relax and underestimate other coins, however. Even though Bitcoin is the top cryptocurrency right now, there’s nothing stopping other coins from taking its place. Other cryptocurrencies are proving themselves to be serious competitors to Bitcoin – Bitcoin Cash offers far cheaper transactions, while Ethereum is proving itself to be a very powerful smart contract platform. Ethereum will also be hard-forking sometime in 2018 to switch to a Proof-of-Stake system.

So… Moon or Not?


The only right answer to this question is “maybe”. Nobody knows what will happen – maybe the price will stabilize, maybe we will see another 14x rise, or maybe it could collapse. Even though we cannot predict the future, some so-called “experts” think they do; here’s a list of predictions for 2018.

Tomas Salles, FXStreet Analyst – $8,073 to $89,750
Nick Colas, DataStreet Research Co-Founder – $6,500 to $22,000
Dennis Gartman, The Gartman Letter Editor – Below $5,000
Dr. Julian Hosp, TenX Co-Founder – $5,000 to $60,000
What do you think about these predictions? Do you think they will be accurate given that in 2017 all predictions were blown out of the water? Let us know your thoughts below!

Buying a privacy coin doesn’t mean you now operate under a cloak of invisibility. From browser fingerprinting to recording IP addresses, there are various ways in which three-letter agencies can de-anonymize supposedly private transactions. Unless you’re a drug lord or a terrorist, though, they’ve probably got better things to do with their time. In situations where absolute privacy is essential, there are mixers such as Bitmixer and Join Market that can be used to tumble coins and obfuscate their origins.

When using monero, some users split their transaction into multiple hops, often passing through Shape Shift from a different altcoin and then on to an Electrum wallet using Tails. There’s no such thing as perfect privacy on the web, but privacy coins make it a lot easier to send and receive funds without broadcasting your business to the world. Expect to see many more privacy-centric coins entering the market in 2018 as the battle for privacy heats up

Bitcoin's recent price dump is the trending topic in Crypto World right now.. Why did the price dump?? Will it increase in nearest future??? Or it will keep dumping???
Ok here is the first Reason :
The increased price of bitcoin was not even worth it. It was just jumping without any reason. And the recent price jumping was just like a madness but nothing. In just 1 month it increased by 109.36 %.. can you expect that?? I think the market craze went down. that is why the price is dumping..

Reason 2: I think the price is dumping because of its altcoin BCH.. Current BCH price pumping making peoples invest in bch inspite of btc.. people are thinking they will get more profit in bch. than btc. that is why they are starting to sell bitcoin. and starting to invest in bitcoin cash. That's why for the first time A cryptocoin is shaking the kingdom... which is BCH.
Ok. the real question.. Will the price go up again?? Or it'll go down and down???What's going to happen to Bitcoin??what

that is a good idea from you and good effort of you , but i think a signed message will be better for this.
