4401  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think ICO is a good way to raise money? on: March 02, 2019, 07:49:43 AM
Hello , What do you think about ICO as a way of raising money in the next years? .Specially after all the scam projects we have seen before,like last time  the team of a project called elementh(https://icobench.com/ico/elementh) claimed that they have to quit the project since they did not have enough resources eventhough they raised about 8M USD , and after ICO no single step forward the development of product has been achieved.
They wanna return the money to investors as btc and eth after all this bull market (btc was about 10K usd ).


Can you share a link of their telegram or ANN thread?  I would like to verify your statement.
I am interested to know because I am holding this token and were not able to sold it since the price is so cheap.
4402  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Top 30 Crypto Poll - The Worst on: March 02, 2019, 07:30:19 AM
Voted for this, 504 Dancing Banana Coin, and I don't even know what this coin is.
I tried searching in the https://coinmarketcap.com/ but I have not found any, it must be a mistake or something?

All other coins that are listed in the poll are good coins IMO.
4403  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cardano threatens Ethereum! on: March 02, 2019, 05:14:42 AM
This thread was posted in 2018 and whatever things cardano said to achieve, nothing has happened so far. Saying is far easier than doing.

What can yo expect? 2018 was a bad year for all coins, not only for cardano.
However, it seems not possible that Cardano will beat ETH at the current standing, ETH is still at no. 2 while cardano has not improve in ranking, instead it went down and got replace by other coins.
4404  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to invest in an ICO? on: March 02, 2019, 04:58:02 AM
everything you explain is true, but the most important thing is, dare to make a buying decision. not affected by others. it will make us even more convinced that ico will rise high when we have high confidence.
Yes, of course, the most important thing is our belief when making an investment, this will certainly have an effect on future results if we are not sure of failure or defeat, confidence and patience is one of the keys to the results that we will achieve in the future

There are times we failed but eventually we will learn.

Risk is always present in the market especially for investors, now, the image of ICO is bad, hence that pose a risk to any investors who
would try to risk their money on ICO's future, still that's our own decision, as long as we are responsible for what we are doing, it's never wrong to invest.
4405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stable Coins Necessary? on: March 02, 2019, 04:43:11 AM

He was talking about do we need many kinds of altcoin in these days. So many small or even big companies just like JPmorgan are interested to create their own altcoin. This will be a problem in the future and he was asking about the potential of the problem caused by this.
We need more because we have a big market.
The adoption is not that big so we should get ready for a possible adoption, having a lot of coins will make crypto grow as that will bring good competition in the market. Whether it's a stable coin or not, as long as it has real usage, it's still beneficial for us and will help the adoption stage.
4406  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 6 Reasons Why Shift Will Become A Top 10 Coin In 2018 on: March 01, 2019, 06:03:18 AM
Does anyone think there is any future with it?  I bought shift when it was below 2 dollars thinking it would do very good.  But now price is down very low but not only that, trading volume is very low.  I thought shift was going to be huge because of what others said here.
Trading volume is low, that's bad, however we cannot blame it's price now as we are in the bearish market.
The effect is only normal of the price dump, if you look at the graph here https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/shift/#charts , you will see
that the price has dump 10 times from it's ATH, that's the same thing that happens to most altcoins.
4407  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum Price Prediction 2019 – ETH Price May Touch $1450 In 2019 on: March 01, 2019, 05:48:29 AM
Well, you cannot discount the largest crypto community of developers Ethereum has. Those nerds maybe up to something. I'll be more worried if those people started leaving or go their separate ways and break up the community.
I don't think they would do that, they are already the top 1 in the altcoin market and if they will improve more this coin it will benefit them more.
Splitting will just make them unsuccessful, running a new project does not guarantee a success, so I still would trust this nerd to run the project and my future as well.
4408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: EOS Price Prediction 2019 on: March 01, 2019, 05:35:41 AM
EOS is running slowly but surely, and bitcoin will continue to provide unexpected movements with unstable demand. This makes EOS continue to be able to move with a better community. There are still many opportunities to have and will continue with a slightly improved market.
This coin is a solid coin for long term investment, the development is good so I won't be surprise if it will pump this year.
It's all time high was $21, so I guess we can break that one when the bullish starts, if no bull run this year, it's gonna be 2 years of long bear period which is unlikely.

Gamblers mindset are not easily be change when they are addicted to the game.

There's only one mindset when you are addicted to the game, you will continue to gamble and just stick with your losing method.
You'll never have a long term success if you are addicted as that would not enable you to make a good decision to win.

Some gamblers mindset could be change only when they ran out of funds in gambling arena else, they remain adamant to their mindset. Addiction take time to heal from the life of a gambler, better not to be addicted than been addicted and looking for exit.

Worst thing could happen to a gambler is when he got bankrupt, a suppose to be an entertainment has no become a financial killer.


Stay away in gambling if you have that signs and seek for help.
4411  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I've got $20k to invest. Please recommend! on: February 28, 2019, 02:42:26 AM
I see you wrote this article in 2016, I think you have succeeded now with the 20k money you used to have. because in that year Crypto is growing rapidly, and maybe in 2017, you are very happy with your money. but for example, if I currently have 20k, I might use it to trade. I don't use it for long-term investments. because in my opinion the risk of trading today is smaller than making a long-term investment. in my opinion, it's better to earn a little more than to bear a huge risk.
I'm sure he already make a lot of money if he really invested all his money.

Let's say he invested last May 2016 and the price per BTC was just around $450 so he will owned BTC44.44 , and then hold it for more than a year
waiting for the bull run to come, On december 2017 he sold his BTC44.44 at $19,500 so that converts to $866,580 less $20,000 and that results to a net profit of $846 580.


WOW!
4412  Economy / Speculation / Re: Ways to Raise Prices bitcoin on: February 27, 2019, 05:08:16 AM
If we want to increase the price of bitcoin we need to have massive adoption where the demand on the market will increase.

This is the only real solution so we will not see a pump and dump anymore.
Institutional money is very important, they will lead a massive adoption and the way I'm seeing it, it seems like they are here but not too aggressive ye.

There are many new updates in this year and I those kind update will uplift the bear market. Right now we can see little pump in the price of bitcoin. Yet, we can't still raise the price of bitcoin in the market.


We see great updates and in fact it raises BTC up, but unfortunately that was just temporary as whales cash out early.
4413  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple vs. Banks? on: February 27, 2019, 04:51:09 AM
I got many news about Ripple or XRP coin where coinbase want to listed ripple on their market. Many bank have support and working with Ripple for the future and make ripple become their payment transaction.
Banking community is the key element for the tremendous growth of ripple. Regularly more and more banking community keeps on using the ripple platform. This has led ripple to be permanently listed as the banking coin as it is almost centralized and used on a banking systems.
Therefore it should not Ripple vs Banks.

Ripple can work with bank by giving them a system that is fast, cheap, and transparent, it's called a bankers coin so why would people want to compare it with bank.
4414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: February 27, 2019, 04:39:33 AM
Im impressed on how Denver Nuggets works this season. Currently sitting at the 2nd spot in the West and looks like they can maintain it until the end of the season.
LOL I thought I'm the only person that noticed that. At the very start of the season, they have been treated as not so good team. But they are showing that they are improved now and they shouldn't be treated easy by most of the big teams.

They even surpassed those favored teams, they are doing well for this season. What they need to do is to maintain their place and if they can't come up beating Warriors at the top spot, they have a chance to make it to the finals.
Underrated team, they are getting less attention maybe because superstar in other team like Lakers are more famous. Hope they will play better in playoffs as we all know, plays in playoff is kinda different. Look at Rockets they are good at regular season but outplayed in playoffs.
They are currently tested now against the OKC thunder, game is very close but I think they'll win this one at home.
We will see if how good they are if they will keep beating good teams, like teams in the playoff spot already.
Being underrated team will make them even more inspired to prove that public that they are also here.
4415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does this sound realistic? on: February 26, 2019, 01:56:55 AM

The theory is;
If you want to gamble, see it more like you are paying the casino or gambling platform to have some fun (just like you do to go watch some movies in cinema), which if you are paying for anything, you are not meant to expect it back. The good thing however is that, you can actually end up being paid more for having that fun if you get lucky, but the chances of seeing that happen is pretty slim. In that light, if you cannot actually live with doing what I said above, then you should not be gambling at all.
This theory of yours doesn't seem realistic to me because gambling most time is for earning and not for fun as you propose. Allow me to say this; gambling for money is the only means you can earn from gambling else gambling for fun as the primary aim will never generate money from that fun. So, gamble as if you want money and the end result will surely be profitable.

You cannot compare gambling and casino with movie watching etc. You pay for the movie and then enjoy it for some 2 hours. You do not enjoy by placing your money in gambling game and losing in a matter of seconds. Gambling is played with the aim of getting quick money and I don't think people only play it for Fun only.
That's true, you don't loss watching movie because you won't watch it if you don't want it, that's called quality time spending.
In gambling, you are risking your money to win, if you loss then I don't think you'll get the entertainment you are looking, unless you are a lot of money to waste.

4417  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP really better than ETH??? on: February 26, 2019, 01:43:38 AM
I have my own opinion on this matter, I believe that ripple and ether are not the coins on which you can earn a lot. For example, for me a much better coin is the ETA token (Ethera project), this project has several times more investment prospects than any other top project.
Etheera has no special value in the present and we will. This type of promotion is misleading users.  Cool
Probably a shit coin, I had to look at the coinmarketcap to find it's value but it's very cheap, $0.000070 USD with less than $500 daily volume.
That's considered a shit coin, I don't know about this project but if the market will remain bullish it will not recover.

Going back to the topic, it seems like XRP had a good increase today and I'm glad the market looks good again, including ETH.

4419  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't quit investing on: February 25, 2019, 08:08:19 AM
Just what others said, we have to give cryptocurrency a second chance, i think its like a break in this market where its just testing us and our patience if we are willing to wait for the right time for cryptocurrency to bloom just like what happen in December 2017, I think the smart thing to do now is to invest in different kinds of coins because the market is down now and you just have to wait for it to go up.
Anyone who believes that the history of 2017 may be repeated or even prices will be higher, should invest without a doubt, because the potential benefit may be indecently good

True, we should not doubt the market, if we trust it, the current market is not bad because eventually we can buy more coins to fill our bags.

Before the next bull run, we should ready ourselves, if we haven't sold during the last bull run then it's important to remain optimistic as eventually the right time will come, with proper patience and monitoring on the market, it will not make us panic even if the bear will stay longer.
4420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: February 24, 2019, 11:40:43 AM
I woudn't be surprised in James Harden will win the MVP again this year. As you have said, he is putting a lot of works and his numbers are way about the rest.

I don't know though, but it looks like Houston hasn't forgot last year conference finals that's why when they face Golden State they're usually pump up and wanting to prove something. Good win for them.

Westbrook was so underrated this season, he is putting tripple double and his team is winning now.
If I would choose the one to be an MVP, I might choose Westbrook because he is stepping up now and he has turn the OKC to be one of the best team in the League.
