There is no such safe place where you could keep your assets without fear that they might depreciate.
Gold at least has a physical nature and is a rare precious metal, which in turn makes it very valuable to people.
Also, any physically useful assets that have, as I said, physical referents in the real world, will be just those saving things for your current assets in times of crisis or global catastrophe.
unfortunate what you say is very true because everything has risks but when you really want to save an asset it is better to have a physical form like gold which in my opinion is still very safe for long-term investment and gold is the safest asset because it is not need electricity or anything to make a transaction.
4162  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Project's website is asking private keys of the holders. on: February 15, 2020, 03:37:33 PM
It’s obviously a scam, any project asking for private key is a scam and you don’t need to be told to stay away from such scam project.
Yes and I was searching about this and found out that OP is not the only one to face issues from this ICO as you can see people commenting in their thread like what's the use of such a token when you can't move it from your wallet. But that said, the token seems to be dead already as the last post in their thread was months ago and there seems no proper communication from Volentix team.

The funniest part I see is where the OP asked I want to withdraw my tokens and the support was like Why? Lol, it is my tokens I don't need to give you a reason for moving my tokens.
lol, maybe the OP hasn't had too much experience about the ICO world and maybe he got a token from the airdrop or bounty so he felt like pulling the token and started to hesitate because they asked for a private key from the holders, so when participating in whatever the project should be keep careful.
4163  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How interested are you to lend BTC out? Need Your Input! on: February 15, 2020, 11:43:17 AM
I'm into this idea but it got me thinking what if the platform that I lent my bitcoins suddenly closed or hacked, then what happens to my btc? it's lost forever unless they will compensate for the damage that has been done.

I'll probably lend some but for the people that I know.

This might probably be the risk of investing your bitcoin to lend it to a company, there's no assurance that you have a money back, though, I do consider that an investment to be invest again will surely return higher profit. On the other hand, we need to risk too much as well.

I am curious about the survey and the company itself, but I don't think I could be the one to answer it as I am not into bitcoin lending, I might just wait for the result and see how the company performs in the latter future.
when you invest in bitcoin then you should not use money from savings because if you use the money from loans it will have a very high risk and you better invest using your own money so that when prices fall you don't bother thinking about money and should replace money from your loan.
4164  Economy / Economics / Re: What will be the affect of Valentine day on Bitcoin Price on: February 15, 2020, 07:30:42 AM
maybe the OP considers Valentine's Day to be a very important day for cryptocurrency so that it can have a price effect on price movements, really this makes me laugh out loud because there are still people who consider Valentine's Day important.
4165  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to choose the right bounty for Newbie? Get rid of fake/scam project on: February 15, 2020, 02:32:02 AM
There's no significant rules how to find legit bounty project, classic problem without solution. Many tips already exist but there's no guarantee we take the right bounty program. I think ( as newbie ) you should join several program with basic rules, such as developer team quality, realistic project target and coin allocation. Write your activity until find the best guide for you, learn it direct into field because reading is not helping anymore, just go do it and learn from it.
well, right now there is no bounty campaign that can be relied on because there have been many cases of bounty campaigns that are scam even if they are not scam then the price at the exchange is very cheap so the bounty campaign is no longer good if they make payments using tokens, but bounties good campaign if they make payments using bitcoin and the bounty manager has saved funds for payment in the first week then it will be very good and will avoid scams.

but it requires a high enough ranking level to be able to participate.
4166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is better than your bank! on: February 14, 2020, 11:15:01 PM
For me both are good because I feel bank is very different option for me instead of Bitcoin as this one is giving me some good and extra ordinary things which was not possible without bitcoin and bank is giving good services which I need for many other things which are not possible right now through bitcoin so both are good and giving better services but last thing now if some one ask me about this bitcoin my reply is my blood is bitcoin.
well indeed banks are still used by many people and banks already existed before bitcoin, although like that the blockchain technology owned by bitcoin is good but up to now bitcoin still cannot be used for any purchases in all countries meaning there are still those who have not accepted bitcoin as currency or place to save money so it doesn't hurt if the bank is still often used by many people who don't understand blockchain and bitcoin.
4167  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Malaysia crypto friendly on: February 14, 2020, 03:14:50 PM
I believe Malaysia is crypto friendly, on the other hand it hasn't revealed any statement relative to cryptocurrency activities within the country. This means we can take it in the positive way as well as can think much in the opposite way. Malaysia is listed to be technically advanced country for its cities infrastructure. Upon the same they'll also keep themselves strong over the technology based development which is the need for the present time period growth.
well some time ago I think I have seen ICO originating from Malaysia and now the ICO has no further development and can be said as a scam, I'm still not sure that Malaysia can be friends, for finance like that I suggest you should be able to be more be careful no matter what country it is.
4168  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are altcoins so fragile compared to Bitcoin? on: February 14, 2020, 08:58:36 AM
Hi friends:
What is the reason for the large fluctuations of altcoins in your view? Why are altcoins so fragile compared to Bitcoin and fluctuating with the smallest news? Of course, I mean the altcoins that have good ideas, professional support,... not the shitcoins.

In my personal opinion, altcoin is like relying on bitcoin, I even saw a few times when bitcoin prices began to fall, then most altcoins also went down, and vice versa, so I concluded that good altcoin is like there is a dependency on bitcoin.
indeed many altcoin price movements follow the bitcoin price movement but it is very reasonable because bitcoin is the center of all cryptocurrency that exists but sometimes when there are certain events that can increase demand the altcoin price will soar high and not depend on the price of bitcoin.
4169  Economy / Speculation / Re: One satoshi for $1 dollar will occur someday on: February 14, 2020, 02:59:32 AM
I'm sorry, even I, a very opmistic person about BTC and the blockchain in general, can't believe in such price
There's a lot os scenarios of probability, but to achieve this price per satoshi, a BTC have to hit 100 millions dollars, yes a single coin of BTC
Can you explain how can we have this money on criptos?


One chance is if people will use only bitcoin, and we know that there are many altcoins, that probably won't happen.

The other chance is because bitcoin has scarcity and the world's population is way bigger than that 21 million bitcoins.


as I know, the price movements of altcoin and bitcoin are of course very different, some altcoins also have a supply of 21 million pieces but the price cannot be as expensive as bitcoin because price movements depend on how demand is in society, meaning when the coin can be used by many people and can simplify transactions, the price will rise because the higher the demand the higher the price.
4170  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investment Advice for year 2020 on: February 13, 2020, 12:19:01 PM
to get profit, the thing that needs to be seen is the solidarity of a group or the ability not to reduce prices, if you hold altcoin, choose the highest altcoin at least 100 best ranking
There are many altcoins in the top 100 are scams. Therefore, we must be careful when investing in the top 100, it is best to choose altcoins in the top 20 to invest. It will be a lot safer and also make us more profitable
I think if you invest altcoin in the top 20 ranks you still get a little profit, you should be able to see events that will happen this year, the first is that bitcoin will halving bitcoin which will occur on May 12, 2020 and ethereum will launch a new program which is talked about by many people can get a lot of profit, so what if you focus on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and XLM. for your capital to invest in these 4 coins then you can get a lot of profit until the middle of this year.
4171  Economy / Economics / Re: Countries with banks to buy and sell cryptocurrencies on: February 13, 2020, 10:11:29 AM
Banks in Germany started to allow people to buy and sell cryptocurrencies this January 2020. I think other countries will do the same soon, Japan might be another country with such services. In the beginning, someone has to start something so others can follow suit.  

What are the other countries where anyone legally can buy/sell cryptos at commercial centralized
in asia specifically in Philippines there are Banks with Cryptocurrency ATM's in which you can Purchase numbers of crypto.

but Banks that Buying and Selling Crypto?that would be cool to see,imagine they are offering safe service(of course without scams like online )and this is one good moves from Government of Germany as they are one of the adopters of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies like Japan and other countries.
well, I think a lot of bitcoin atm has been circulating so that many people will find it easier to make cryptocurrency withdrawals but it is unfortunate that currently there are still few who can accept payments using bitcoin and they are still unsure of bitcoin sellers because some countries are still concerned about regulations regarding the use of bitcoin.
4172  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Token been sent to 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 on: February 13, 2020, 08:10:56 AM
Have you ever experience that your token or coin are sent to 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
address without your knowledge?
In my experience someone maybe inside my etherwallet have move my token to this address,
i mean whose fault is this, but my other coins where not even touch,
here is the image,


In some post i saw people posting that they accidentally sent it to an empty address
but in my case i never open my account, have this happen to anyone?
what are are the precautions you have done
I also have never experienced such a problem because if some of your tokens suddenly come out and move to another wallet then someone might know your private key or know how to access your wallet.

and all I know is a wallet with the number 0 with a lot like that is just a wallet that is usually used to burn supplies because no one can access the wallet.


Dear akirasendo17,

well I think your problem has been answered directly by the official team of gold stable coin.
4173  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is the 21M BTC supply promise realistic? on: February 12, 2020, 11:48:02 PM
Is  the 21M BTC supply promise realistic?  
It's for real and it's even recorded and programmed to have that supply limit. Reaching that max limit will take around a century or more until there's no more bitcoins left to mine but it's all going to be in the circulation.

Miners will continue to mine for the same thing and that's for the confirmation of our transactions. I'm also confused what you're bringing up here or what bothers you about the supply limit.
one day miners will be difficult to produce bitcoin because as I know when bitcoin is getting closer to supply then the level of difficulty to break blocks that can produce bitcoin will increase even the result of miners will be drastically reduced, so the supply limit of bitcoin will have an impact on price and life bitcoin in the future.

because when bitcoin becomes more difficult to obtain there are 2 choices, humans can still use bitcoin but with very high transaction costs or humans don't use it anymore because bitcoin prices are too high only that is likely to happen in the future when bitcoin has reached the maximum supply limit .
4174  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC is back with a bang. on: February 12, 2020, 03:09:34 PM
to be honest, I'm not really surprised to see this, because I believe that the price of bitcoin can be higher than it is today. I predict that the price will be above the $ 12k price before halving, and higher after that. I think it's still early, so I'm waiting for a bigger price.
well, you might not be surprised to see the price of bitcoins that experience price increases like this, but for new traders who are still familiar with bitcoin and only buy bitcoin when their cheap prices enter the right position and can get a lot of profit so they are very happy now, it's better indeed save bitcoin until halving occurs so that the profit gained can be more.
4175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP Price to $14 - Any thoughts? on: February 12, 2020, 11:10:24 AM
Although I do not like xrp for many reasons, just like all of you, I do not deny the possibility that xrp has the potential to be used as a transaction payment tool on a global scale.

They look more friendly towards banks, and ordinary people are tremendously affected by all decisions taken by the government, banks must have close relations with the government.
indeed many banks are starting to work together with the ripple platform to make safer and faster transactions with very low transaction costs and this shows a very good development because the ripple platform has long been considered a platform that often manipulates and many say it doesn't have a good platform but when ripple has a good development like this it will answer all ripple haters who are astonished because they see a very good ripple development like this.
4176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Dominance Going Down? on: February 12, 2020, 06:45:45 AM
having 62% in dominating market capitalization?i don't think it is appropriate to say that.
bitcoin is still dominating high the crypto world so nothing to be alarmed mate.

and besides 62% is truly high enough to prove the dominance not unless you all want to make it 80%?with too many altcoins around that is impossible for now to happen.
well your explanation is very reasonable because when halving it will be more difficult to get bitcoin while those who search and use bitcoin have a very high amount so it will have a good impact on the price at the exchange place that will soar because bitcoin is very valuable so people will always be looking for bitcoin and will use it for something that can provide benefits and make it easy to transact.
4177  Economy / Economics / Re: Centralized exchanges have become the banks of the cryptocurrency world on: February 11, 2020, 11:44:26 PM
To me, I think Centralized exchanges are more user-friendly than DEXes due to which people don't like to visit their websites while they can do all the trading on a CEX app like Binance, Kucoin, Hotbit, etc. and that's the only reason why DEXes don't have much volume. Most of the DEXes I've seen are mostly based on Eth smart contracts, but I believe that Eth itself is Centralized so how can those DEXes be called as decentralized ones?
but if you keep all your assets for too long at the exchange place it will pose a very high threat to you because the place of exchange can inadvertently collapse and there will be many assets that cannot be liquidated and held at the exchange place, there have been many cases it happens like that, so I think you should be able to be careful when storing assets in an exchange place.
4178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Did you notice top exchanges reduced the withdrawal fee? on: February 11, 2020, 01:29:33 PM
Yes, this is a very steep step on the part of the exchanges.They are already awash in money)) By their actions, the exchanges will attract even more clients using cryptocurrencies.
The problem is the volume in the exchange, if the volume in the exchange is genuine then there is no problem whatsoever even though they are flooded with money, only now there are several exchanges that often create fake volumes, so we must be careful in trusting an exchange.
if you say the problem of the trading place is trading volume, then it is natural that there are many trading places that manipulate the trading volume so that it can make many new traders who will be interested in the exchange, it's better to be able to be careful to do trading on the exchange place.

currently I am still using the Binance exchange place and only trust the Binance exchange place that I can trust.
4179  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Hardware wallet really secure enough? on: February 11, 2020, 12:45:41 PM
Recently I have seen the news that Trezor hardware wallet was hacked in 15 minutes! Was it true guys? Or I have misunderstood? I thought they have very strong security that can't be breach so easily! But look at what can be happened to Trezor within 15 minutes! So, how can we feel 100% safe in hardware wallet?

I don't know if there is such a news if you have one, you should just drop the link here for us to verify the truth fullness of the news, hardware wallet is very secured so many people have verified that it is the safes and it is created to be the most secured wallet, it is quite expensive because they guaranty it's use fullness and security.

at least he should be able to provide valid evidence because until now I use a hardware wallet like that is also still safe, maybe depending on where he has access to the wallet because hackers will usually try to hack through a computer that has been infected by hackers so that their assets are stolen, it's better to access the wallet on a computer that really has very high security.
4180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Transactions on Smartwatches? on: February 11, 2020, 08:49:22 AM
I've seen many Android-powered smartwatches out there with capabilities to run apps in the same way (almost) as an ordinary smartphone would. On the other hand, we have the Apple Watch which runs its variant of the iOS system. Imagine being able to install a lightweight wallet like Electrum on a smartwatch to send/receive Bitcoin transactions. After all, most of these (if not all) smartwatches have Wi-Fi capabilities, Bluetooth, and more. By integrating Bitcoin wallets into smartwatches, you can truly send/receive transactions anywhere with ease. I'm sure not if this is possible yet (as I don't own a smartwatch). But if a developer decides to create Bitcoin wallets for smartwatches, I'll be a big hit within the mainstream world.

What are your thoughts? Is something like this practical/secure? Or is it better to continue using smartphones for Bitcoin transactions? Huh

This can be possible, as we can see many of the devices nowadays have many features for the convenience of the users. If bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will be used as a usual method of payments, there will be high chances that it can be launched in smartwatches. With the technology we have nowadays, it is not impossible to create that feature in the near future.
of course using smartwatches can do bitcoin transactions it's just possible smartwatch will be equipped with sensors for barcodes to make transactions because if it will facilitate its use and because of the very small display of smartwatches I think only barcode sensor solutions can be used for transactions with cryptocurrency because if you have to enter Manually address it will complicate its use.

the usage scheme might be like this
Smartwatches -> Scan For Login -> Verification -> Display balance -> Scan for transactions -> Confirmation -> Payment successful.
