I'm quite familiar with the crypto world and can differentiate things. But I also look for things in internet.
If you do a google search with bitcoin, bitcoin.com comes in the second place. And most people also has a habit of looking for topic.com which leads to bitcoin.com. But the site bitcoin.com in many instances refers Bitcoincash as Bitcoin while they call the longest chain of Bitcoin as Bitcoin Core. This way they are presenting bitcoincash as the real bitcoin. And the more you see lie, the more it looks real.
Bitcoin is a community based project while Bitcoincash has business involved. Bitcoincash might even be better than Bitcoin in many aspects. They would do anything to promote their holdings and are generally more successful with their advertising than volunteer supported projects. But it would not undermine the Bitcoin project. |

Cryptopia fell apart. But before it did, it was an easy to use exchange with fairly high volume.
Who is replacing it now?
That's not true, cryptopia was barely alive before it died. There were several other exchanges that have higher trading volume and price. The closure of cryptopia would have negligible effect on cryto trading and price. Binance is still the leader among exchange. |

So I just recently remembered Jimmy Song's BIP Proposal: Utilization of bits denomination in 2017; and I wanted to hear Bitcointalk's opinions on this topic. I think one of the main reasons why people like to buy in on other coins/tokens(e.g. XRP, XLM, TRX, ADA) instead of BTC is that their prices are only in the cents range to a few dollars, compared to bitcoin which is currently at the 4 digit range(and probably soon back to 5). It isn't implausible to think that a good number of people might have been turned away from bitcoin and instead bought in on other coins and tokens due to the fact that they couldn't buy one full bitcoin, while they could buy dozens, hundreds, or thousands of the other coins. Basically, unit bias. What if "bits" was widely used instead? Or probably sats in the future. I honestly only see a positive impact. Do you think it would benefit bitcoin? Link to Bitcoin units/denominations: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Units#Table_of_all_units
Topic will be self-moderated for obvious reasons. Bits would be the optimum unit to use for bitcoin. As the lowest we could get is satoshi, we cannot take fees anything less than a satoshi (at least to date). And bitcoin as you said is too big number to look at. Another option could be to assume the supply of bitcoin to be x1000000 times more of current time and consider 1 bit as 1 bitcoin. That way we can further decrease the value of a satoshi or can we? |

The situation is plain and clear, the market is growing steadily and not bullishly.
Everyone (incl investors) were hopeful of 2018 being a better year than 2017, it failed and left a lot of people in losses, now there are several blogs, posts, speculations and hope that 2019 will be the year and do better, but who knows if it will be more loss ? Or new profits ?
Let’s learn to things the right way, dyor, cash your profit and maintain a balance in your portfolio
Kindly contribute your opinion
Correct. Even if we have another bull run, we would have a long bearish period. So, it's much better to have slower but permanent growth than rapid price hikes and falls because the uncertainty in price is leaving a large world behind and has halted the adoption of crypto in day to day use. The uncertainty in price and transaction fees have made it difficult for even the merchants to deal with the customers in crypto. |

I bought waves a while back. I always thought waves would be big and people say it would beat ETH. Well besides the price going up a lot when every other coin went sky high a while ago, this coin has shown no progress at all. The price has done nothing but drop down or when other altcoins go up, it barely goes up much. Also most ppl definitely bought waves at higher than the current price.
What confuses me is how is this possible when there are so many updates and things going with waves? Shouldn't the price at least go up a bit?
To some extent, yes. They are quite popular among the crypocurrencies, but they have near zero use in real life. Most of the tokens on waves platform are scam or useless. One of the reason for their popularity may be due to it's attempt to copy what's Ethereum was doing. There were very less such project when waves started but soon many advance projects came to rival with Ethereum that made waves obsolete. |

A lot of us are in doubt about investing and trading during these days. We can't really avoid being discombobulated especially newbies that's why sharing our own experience and knowledge can help them to be wiser and responsible about making decision. Just like some of you i'm looking for a good investment, one of my friend suggested Afrihealth. I'm not actually familiar with it that's why I decided to search for some information and details about it and it turns out good. Of course as an investor I want everything to be great and turn into positive outcomes that's why I always make sure about everything especially on making decision so I won't regret anything.Do you think its a good and worth it investment? There are many good project to go with. Why are you falling for a shady project. There are many projects who had came forward with full transparency and legitimacy. There are well established companies issuing token and the crypto secondary market is also a good way to grab some quick profit. When the price of all cryptos are down and legit companies issuing profitable tokens, why would you look for probable scams? |

Craig Wright has became a paranoia. He just want's to be in the news, to be famous and for that he had told many lies and lost any credibility he ever had. No sane person would believe what he says. And media are just covering him because they have no other topic to cover or are reluctant to look for anything new. |

There is a big potential of TRON to soon be a big leader in the world of cryptocurrency. Some are saying this has the potential to displace Ethereum not just in market capitalization but importantly with adoption as it is now boasting of many Dapp users. Recently, Justin Sun announced that #TRON smashes Dapp record with over 100k Daily Users on May 16. The crypto market is experiencing an upward trend and Dapps are not to be left behind. As it is, #TRX has just broken it own all-time high record in daily active DApp users." Aside from this, TRON is proud to have gain partnerships with many known entities and I am sure more can be coming in the next few months. Here is the list for now: #TRON Partnerships of 2019: @Opera - Web Browser @Travalacom - Travel @Swarm - Tokenization @ALSassociation - ALS @Tether_to - USDT-TRON @CoinFlipATM - TRON ATMs @HuobiGlobal - #TRX Derivatives @BitGo - Custody @BinanceBCF - Charity @DACCblockchain - AI With this as the developmental backdrop, it is easy to conclude that TRON is the rising star. I am looking forward for the possibility of a good and healthy rivalry between Vitalik Buterin and Justin Sun. Are you a TRON believer? A few partnership is not going to make TRON a superior alternative to Ethereum. It would take a huge effort to dethrone Ethereum. Specially when Ethereum has a more active development roadmap than Tron. And as of being handsome, Vitalik Buterin is much more handsome than Justin Sun. Just study and compare some of their tweets, you'll get the picture. |

ICOs, or Initial Coin Offerings, have become a popular way for cryptocurrencies to raise funds from the public. However, they have also become an easy way to prey on the vulnerable, and the financial regulator recently warned customers about what it calls “these very high risk, speculative investments”. It warns that there’s little consumer protection and high potential for fraud, as well as high volatility. Some ICOs are regulated by the FCA, but this is on a case-by-case basis, depending on how they are structured.
As the FCA says, you should fully research any ICO before handing over your money. “You should only invest in an ICO project if you are an experienced investor, confident in the quality of the ICO project itself,” a spokesman says. Alternatively, consider investing or trading with a regulated provider.
I don't make an investment unless I'm sure about the project I'm investing in. Though occasionally I too get fooled and the things I was sure about turns out to be fake. But I have a better track record. The mistake investors make are they start looking for projects when they have money to invest. But what you should do is the opposite. You should look for money when you find the right project. It's better to hold onto your crypto than to get it stuck on some useless token. |

DO you think ICO websites help investors to choose best ICO to participate.
Now there is a lot of websites rating ICOs, most of this websites rate the ICOs, but in other hand this websites charge fees from ICOs.
Which means that this evaluation may not be accurate, so do you trust these websites? and do you recommend using them?
It would be useful to some extent. Most of the ICO website now features interviews, profile and other info about the team and the individuals. Their history and current status. And makes it easier for the investors to decide what's worth investing for. Though paid promotions had been ruining the experience, it would be wise to compare their informations with other sites and do a bit of research yourself before believing in them. |

This could be a bear trap.
There are two factors leading to the current decrease in price of cryptocurrency.
One is due to the late investors who made a 10-20% profit and went with cashing it out. Another is the whales trying to buy coins for cheap price for the last time. If you are a regular user than holding is still the best idea. I don't feel it's worth selling your bitcoin anything below $10K.

Now that stringent measures are being put in place to eradicate plagiarism and spamming through ban and all that, will it not also be time for Theymos or the admins to put in place measures to checkmate Bounty Managers on the way they run their bounties? I mean shouldn't these mangers become strict (or be forced to) on crosschecking the post habits of their participants? The altcoin bounty threads are now messy. What can be done to make it better? Your suggestions can help Theymos make a valuable change.
This is a complex issue to address. To what extent a bounty manager should be liable for his/her participants behaviour? But one thing for sure is these managers are taking up too much job for them to handle. And they are compromising the quality to make it look like they are doing the job properly. And in some instances, they even work with the plagiarizing and spamming to scam the bounty issuer. |

This is my result in searching the meaning of “Winning” How would you know that you have really one? Is it just one game? Only one chance where you get the W or the L? Is that already the Victory that is defined or Defeat when you lose? This came into my thoughts when I read somewhere here in BTCT that when are you going to stop? And a lot of people have suggested that they will stop when they have already won. It got me thinking, how would be a Win? There could be a lot of factors on when someone is going to stop. It probably depends on what type of person you are but seeing everyone has their own opinions, you could share everything here. We are in a fast paced world where people would want to have instant income basically instant gratification. Could that be a win already? What is the motivation knowing that you are continue to win and lose when you gamble. What is the TRUE meaning of ”Winning” in gambling for you? Is it successful profits or satisfied game even if you lose? This is seriously a good question to ask own-self. Each and every site I deposited my coin, I never withdrew more than I deposited. It's not that I didn't win but I was reluctant to cashout until I had no amount to cashout. And I have repeated that mistake many many times. LOL. That's the reason why I stopped gambling. I lost 0.5 BTC within few hours and I was too tensed. My girlfriend asked me about it. She knows when I'm lying so at last needed to tell her the truth. She made me promise not to bet again and I have been keeping that promise for last 21 days. |

Dear Satoshi Nakomoto and Bitcoiners! (sorry for my google translate) I have a fantastic, but the available opportunity to translate into reality - an idea! I heard how you feel about your father. I thought about these words. I know that our relatives and friends are dying, if he is already dead, he has long been absent from the network, at least under his own name. Satoshi, give a sign if you're still alive! I will even accept SV  So, I think that in the last hours, many people think about immortality or life extension. Take a look back! Many of us waste time or on useless things. BCASH? I wrote something like Roger Vera to find out what he was doing and he answered, “busy working on BTC.COM” so that we could buy a coffee mug for bch ?! Okay, okay. Altcoins, this is the BITCOIN scaling, from his point of view. Returning to the reflections, I propose to create a Bitcoin VR fork, why? To dad long lived! Many will agree with me that the events on the cryptocurrency market resemble a fascinating series. What if Bitcoin is the key - the connection of the material world in the form of global value and existence in the virtual world, where our ancestors and maybe we were in different worlds, but at the same time could be together in a mixed reality. What did the author smoke? This is impossible! Nothing, he imagined) This idea is already worthy of the plot of a science fiction film! Imagine that human consciousness is a kind of light, tangled between a unique sequence of charged particles, which circulates endlessly in our brain, like an extravaganza of electrical impulses. What is possible, I am not a doctor of science) What if our consciousness is a “light” that can be transferred to another environment, outside our body? Many people who have experienced clinical death see a tunnel of bright white light before returning to reality, i.e. regain consciousness and open eyes (the key word "see"). The same is true for a baby, when just born, the first thing he sees is light.Therefore, it is possible that the transfer of human consciousness is possible with the necessary high-speed and "eternal" quantum computers in a virtual environment. The fact that each of us has our own reality and differ from each other is an obvious fact, we all look at things differently, at the world around us. What if you combine all the realities into one virtual network? I would like to hear your opinions. And here is Bitcoin VR? I propose to fork the cue ball and organize a foundation to develop exclusively aimed at finding eternal life for bitcoiners and not only. Motivate with the new coin the necessary specialists and buy supernovae equipment for research. A dey has only a slight chance that someone ever implements it. I am looking for crazy enthusiasts - believers in it) You do have a nice conspiracy theory there but if it's someone from another reality helping or driving us, there's nothing for us to worry or think. They'll know everything that's right for us. And certainly you and me are not the bridge of connection of these realities at least not yet. |

Bitcoin has become more popular in the financial world due to its sudden growth but When I see exchanges there is a high percentage of people who are trying to sell there Bitcoins to make temporary gains using current price increase and some fear this is a temporary situation so they use this moment to abandon the market but My personal opinion is they doesn't understand this is a time that any investor should invest more into Bitcoins because after along time BTC has shown us it is not a Bubble or just another financial failure so as investors we should have a clear understanding in order to make this opportunity an advantage
It was an oppourtunity to get out when bitcoin's price reached above $8K but as now it's around $7K again it's time to get in. We have always seen a small bear before large bull and small bull before large bear. It's called bear trap and bull trap respectively. It's the large players last attempt to make profit in expanse of smaller investors. |

Hi, This is not the typical article about how to get money in which we have to do thousands of operations in order to get a few dollars. The Blockchain page is giving away Stellar just for registering. But considering they give away about $40, it's worth it! https://www.blockchain.com/en/getcryptoEnjoy Has anyone actually been able to get that airdrop? I had filled everything up but there are no responses or balance updates yet. Anyone has any idea when they'll be airdropping them as well as in coinbase. I filled 4 of those airdrops in coinbase but none of them are credited to my wallet as yet. |

Real STO are regulated by the law and you can raise any dispute if you feel the terms are not satisfied in a court where the jurisdiction of the STO lies. STO is intended to be exactly similar to securities issued in stock markets but open to investors world wide and a 24/7 open market.

There are a lot different forms of trading. Study them all. Find what suits you. Look for every resources. Diversify your work. Even though you might feel easy and have more profit in a particular sector, diversification is a compulsion if you don't want to fail.

When I was new in crypto world heard a lot from people that Bitcoin is garbage but I say Bitcoin is future and career maker and also more than real gold Today I have made my career as Bitcoin investor and trader . I was jobless with no earning a dime I did not have capital to invest thanks to ICO airdrop and bounty that gave me free tokens to make money without investing I sold some tokens and accumulate btc to start trading in Bitcoin that is my love and passion and started trading and investing in bitstamp exchange. And now this is my full time career I am from India but certainly not afraid with crypto ban
Many doors are available to enter and exit if crypto and Bitcoin were not in the world I would be very poor A million thanks to Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto
Dear and valuable forum members what thinks about my story
Is Bitcoin even not Gold
Value resides where men believe it resides. It doesn't matter what's the nature of the material is. Gold too are a hyped metal but not as worthless as diamonds. Gold is the best conductor of electricity. Bitcoin is a gold for now and would remain so for an infinite years to come. |

We have now seen if prices start to grow, bitcoin has price of more than $ 8k and ethereum $ 240 or maybe some of the altcoins you hold also have price increases, so do you plan to hold it all or will it sell at price now? or do you still plan to leave Crypto? or maybe you regret not buying a lot when price drop yesterday?
This is certainly a good time for we hodlers. The patience ones are getting paid for believing in crypto. Further I want to use this profit to make a more balanced portfolio, one that won't be largely affected and would yield me a regular profit. I'm reinvesting everything I earn back to crypto in a hope that one day I'll be able to live on my Cryptocurrency income, ditch my job and live travelling around the world. |
