From a long-term perspective and to have a greater certainty, also given the poor market conditions, it is definitely worth choosing the investment in Bitcoin, but with due caution and the right choice you can also try to invest in some good ICO; surely there is a greater risk but also the return can be much greater .... everything also depends on the risk appetite that the investor has.

Important and fundamental news for all VeChain token holders and big investors: in fact, for some days the X-Node owners (special nodes that could only be acquired by March 20, with 600,000 tokens) can sell their status to other users , provided that the latter have in their wallet the necessary number of tokens, or 600,000; the other economic nodes are always available, to the extent of 1,000,000 tokens as a smaller denomination.

This is great news and opens a new market, as the X-Nodes are very sought after, but until today there was no chance for the deadline; I am sure that when the market starts to grow again and the investments in ICO start again, VeChain will be subject to much speculation for this additional reason, for the hoarding and the advantages of owning an X-Node.

I am also convinced that within 2-3 years we will see Stellar further climb the classic until you get in second place, behind Bitcoin.
I see a lot more partnerships and agreements than Stellar compared to Ripple, while Ethereum I think it will come down more and more.

Meanwhile, new agreement and use case between Stellar and Ripio, with the issuance of a new debit card:
The BlockCard enables anyone to spend the value of their Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stellar and other cryptocurrencies on a physical debit card anywhere in the world VISA is accepted.

I consider Metaverse one of the most underrated Coin in the market, but I disagree with you simply because there are no strong and valid supports, at least up to about 9000sat.
If Bitcoin starts to go down, it will take the whole market with it, as it has always done in the past, and Metaverse will follow the "King" like everyone else.
I believe, however, that the 9000sat, already touched twice this year, can hold up .... from there, so we could have a support as big as a mountain from which to start and rebuild.

Iotex is one of the few coins that lost less than 80% in relation to Bitcoin, considering that its maximum was about 800sat in the bull run at the beginning of January.

In addition, both the team and the community is very active on several fronts, and always available to help other users.

When Iotex is discovered by the market and other communities, I'm sure we'll see some good ones!

The ICON Yellow Book containing the main operational policies is now open to the public. In it we find many updates or improvements, such as the DPoS protocol which now becomes DPoC, based on the ICON Incentives Scoring System (IISS).
In addition, the "Hyperconnect the World" project presented in the White Paper was further refined in the ICON yellow document.

I think it is useless now to try to identify the precise bottom, because no one will ever take it.
Instead, it would be a wise decision to start buying and shortly adding Bitcoins and the Coin you prefer, because I think they are very low.

If you believe in the technology behind the crypyo it is useless to look at every day graphics and quotes, because many Coin and companies born in the last two years, will be the new Google, Facebook, Amazon and Apple, in 5 or 10 years; so even if you buy Bitcoin now at $ 3600 or $ 100 Eth and they lose another 20-30%, or even 50%, we are near the end of this long downtrend, and at the next bull run these prices will make us smile, and they will be a distant memory :-)

Looking at graphs and volumes, it looks like the classic pump & dump scheme, organized in some shit groups.
As you can see, in fact, the price tends to double in about a few minutes while the volumes explode, going from $ 5000-10000 to about $ 500,000-1000000; moreover, after about an hour from the pump the prices are starting to deflate to bring back almost the same pre-pump level.

I have already observed this many times in the past; in less than 7 days you'll have the same price as yesterday.

E fai bene; difatti le crypto, al momento vanno più viste come una forma di divertimento o anche un qualcosa di nuovo, su cui studiare e approfondire, e che un domani può portare anche esperienze lavorative. Per questo motivo sentirai sempre da tutti il consiglio di mettere e "investire" nelle crypto quello che sei disposto a perdere; aggiungo io, soldi che comunque non ti serviranno nei prossimi 5-10 anni. Viste in quest'ottica temporale e "speculativa" allora le crytpo, più o meno tutte, possono riservare buone o ottime occasioni.

Ritornando alla tua domanda specifica ti direi che lo scopo ultimo di quasi tutti è quello di aumentare il più possibile il numero dei Bitcoin nei propri wallet; detto ciò, il metodo più semplice e veloce per farlo, è quello di scegliere buone Coin, con blockchain proprietaria, che nei momenti di euforia ti permetteranno appunto di "moltiplicare" il numero dei tuoi bitcoin.
1 Btc= 1 Btc ma 40 Eth=1 Btc oggi può darsi che tra 2 anni gli stessi 40 Eth= 5 Btc, come già successo in passato.

Many people do not count for anything if a few whales agree and decide to take Bitcoin up to $ 1600.
That said I think OP does not mean that $ 1600 and $ 30 are the real values of Bitcoin and Ethereum, but I do not exclude that they are values that can temporarily touch in a violent daily spyke, and then start again immediately.

Big investors and big crypto whales do not look at Tf for 1 hour but watch the daily closures, better still the weekly ones; so I say that Btc and Eth could partially touch those values, for a very short time, but without having a daily and above all weekly closure under them.

True, I asked myself too and I do not understand why nobody or very few try to give a possible future quotation


I read your prediction elsewhere in which you guessed almost the exact $
I hope for all of you that even your prediction here in 1Btc => $ 1000000 can come true
If so, I'll make a transfer $ 1,000 at your bank account

Still a detailed article that tries to explain in a clear and simple way the multiple consensus algorithms that are at the base of the various existing Coin / Blockchain; merits and defects of each of them, costs and opportunities, the importance of them, etc.

Un sito molto carino e ben fatto in cui poter aver subito un colpo d'occhio veloce sulle più famose stablecoin del mercato, senza andare a cercarle nel lungo elenco di Coinmarketcap; oltre a vedere ovviamente il valore, fondamentale i quelle fasi di mercato molto volatili e incerte, in cui possiamo scegliere meglio e più velocemente dove "uscire e parcheggiarci", il sito fornisce molte altre indicazioni utili, tra cui la Velocity of Money, ovvero il tasso al quale il denaro viene scambiato da una transazione all’ altra.

After 3 weeks from the first agreement with the XcelTrip travel site, still a great partnership for close by the Binance team and Tripio, a blockchain-based hotel booking platform; thanks to this now all of us BnB owners can book and pay hotels and residential accommodation directly in Binance Coin.

A user named Limo, who runs a specific IOTA blog called TangleBlog.com, claimed to have spoken with two members of the IOTA Foundation, confirming that a solution was underway to improve the decentralization aspects of the platform, and that it will probably come to this for the middle of 2019.

D'accordo su tutto e sempre convinto che Bitcoin tra una decina d'anni varrà 100$ o 1.000.000$, proprio perchè il tutto dipenderà dalla "regolamentazioni" piuttosto che dalle adozioni, ma la strada sembra comunque che si stia tracciando.

Di rapimenti con relativo riscatto in bitcoin ci sono stati già diversi casi nel mondo ad oggi, e col tempo, la diffusione e crescita dei prezzi non può che aumentare il fenomeno.
In passato nelle abitazioni ladri e malviventi portavano via soldi,auto e oggetti hi-tech; oggi sono passati a rubare quasi esclusivamente oro e gioelli, per l'assenza e la non convenienza degli altri; un domani non troppo lontano, cercheranno supporti magnetici, hard disk, ledger e simili, vecchi pc, etc., e temo aumenteranno significativamente i casi di minacce e tortura per estorcere informazioni e dati personali e sensibili.


Non mi ci addentro in un calcolo simile ma direi solo che 5 anni li vedo pochi per una crescita a 6 zeri....imho, ci vogliono almeno 10 anni da oggi, fino ad arrivare appunto al 5 halving della sua storia, in cui avremo pochi Bitcoin minati ogni giorni e pochissimi rimasti disponibili.

All the best teams and the best projects on the market are sowing in this 2018 but it is not yet time to reap the benefits from this sowing; Bitcoin, Icon, Stellar, Iota, Stratis and indeed VeChain have worked very hard this year, but unfortunately the whole market is correcting and there is nothing we can do to avoid it.

When there is spring everything will rise again, even the most ignoble shitcoin, but who will have worked well and close agreements and partnerships really important and strategic with international companies, will not increase its prices but will see them explode, and then you will be surprised and you will understand how much It was important this moment and this phase, and you'll call yourself stupid for not believing and buying more now 

Once again a step forward to others and a vision and an opening that continues to amaze and surprise:
Exchange Binance announced since 29 November last added Paxos Standard Token (PAX) to the list of stablecoin present in the exchange, but above all introduced the new Stablecoin Market (USDⓈ).
Under USDⓈ, trading pairs will be listed using USDT and PAX as the quote currency. The USDⓈ will subsequently understand and support more trading pairs as more stablecoins are added in the near future.
