Look look who's talking about controlling the coin  .
Ripple has been releasing new coins out of thin air for a long time now. This basically proves they are the ones who are controlling their platform.
Bitcoin is decentralized with limited supply and hence, it's way better than XRP.

Merits are to be "earned" by making constructive posts on the forum which contributes in helping the people.
This is why merits were invented in the first place. You can easily get merits if you make helpful posts in the Indian board.
Just be straight to the point and make your posts constructive and you will get merits for sure.

I have an idea for new Indian members joining the community to make money, fame as well as receiving merits by contributing to the forum.
The most helpful post of the month will receive a small BTC reward.
Merits are obvious since the post itself would be 'most helpful'.
Lets keep this limited upto Member rank or Full member rank since members above that are already expected to make genuine constructive posts.
We can keep it as a monthly or once in 2 weeks sort of thing.

1. WazirX is still functional and I have been using it on a regular basis.

2. Zebapy is making a comeback but it's not that big a deal because they have not mentioned about Crypto to fiat trading anywhere.
They just mentioned about Crypto to Crypto trading which is not so big deal.

3. They will be charging a nominal fee and that too for those wallets which are dormant throughout the month.
Even if you do one trade for the whole month then you won't be charged.

I am going to organize a game (quiz) soon where the users will have to answer all the questions and the one who answers all the questions correctly will win some BTC as a reward. Questions will be related to bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, blockchain, exchanges etc... and the first two people who answers all the questions correctly will get the prize.
This is being done to increase the board activity and bring in more members to the Indian board. Anybody can take part in the game.

Reward : 0.0005 BTC each
Quiz will be released soon (probably on Sunday)

People can vouch in to put more ideas and reward prize(I think 0.0005 should be sufficient as a start since the quiz won't be so difficult).

Note: People should play the quiz not only to get the reward but also to test their knowledge on crypto.
Encourage each other to play the quiz and lets have some fun time in here.

I saw the whole video and now I have a doubt. The host said that quantum computer can be used to create private keys.
If that's possible then I believe quantum computers can also be used to hack the private keys of other users.
This will make the bitcoin network very vulnerable and hence will break the network eventually by creating a panic in the market.

I see what's happening here. Nothing has changed but the ransom.
Earlier, people used to do the same kind of crimes and ask for cash and gold and other luxuries and now it's bitcoin.
Criminals have got smart to ask for bitcoin as ransom since they know it's hard to track.
It's the duty of the cops to investigate the crime and look for the criminal. Paying the ransom will just invite other criminals to do the same.

Just took the quiz. Started with Intermediate to see what level of technical questions it has.
The intermediate level seems like beginners to me  .
Took the Expert level later which impressed me. I didn't know the answers for 4 questions.
It was fun and hence the merit. Enjoy !

we should not even think about him anymore since the whole crypto community recognize Craig Fucking Wright as Faketoshi.
He has been proven wrong so many times that people don't even listen to him anymore.
Let the guy enjoy in his own world. Besides that, he is giving us more things to laugh on him 

Obviously we should not ignore the profits in Satoshi. People usually don't pay attention on their Satoshi profits because they are overwhelmed with their fiat profits.
While fiat profits are more than enough, Satoshi profits are actually the one that matters the most and especially in the long run.
I always pay attention on how much Satoshis I am gaining or losing. Also, it's not always bad to lose Satoshis.
Sometimes we should let go the small Satoshi loses and be happy with fiat profits 

If you already have some bitcoins then you can just open any exchange which has BTC/USDT pair and deposit bitcoins in it and then trade BTC/USDT.
If you don't have any bitcoins then you can deal with some local seller for cash and get some bitcoins.
Eventually you will have to get bitcoins from somewhere and then trade USDT with it in any exchange.

I usually don't use mobile apps for trading since desktop provides a larger screen and more convenience.
I use trading view on desktop and the regular exchanges like binance etc..
On mobile I use binance and WazirX which are exchanges. I don't need separate apps on mobile to trade.

Never go for these bud. Most times, people on telegram offer fake services and get money from you and then scam you.
Secondly, trading bots are nothing but automated scripts which performs the trade for you.
There is no guarantee that it will always generate profits for you. So in my opinion it's a waste of time and money investing in trading bots.

Are you sure that ether's price crossed $300 because I just checked coinmarketcap and the 24hr high was $282 and so I checked the 7 day high and it was about $287.
May be ether's price would have crossed $300 on some particular exchange but the global ethereum price is still around $265.

Ethereum 2.0 still has a few months to be launched. The Ethereum team once said that Ethereum 2.0 will be launched at the end of first quarter of the year but then they postponed it.
So it's probably not gonna launch for the next few months.

I would not recommend anybody to join bounties these days because people have been scamming a lot of users in the name of bounties.
Fake projects get launched and scam people into joining bounties and promoting their fake projects for free.
Although there are genuine projects that actually pay the people, bounties have a bad reputation because of the tremendous amount of scams happening.

There is no question that if Google launches it's own cryptocurrency then it's gonna be centralized.
Google has created so many products and services over the years and we can see that most of it's products needs Google's support to function properly.
So even if Google has it's own cryptocurrency, it will keep it Centralized in order to fetch more data from it's users and keep tracking them to the eternity.

This thing is big bud. Blocking the mainnet shows the people how centralized this project can be.
Even if the investigation was supposed to happen, they should not have blocked the mainnet since it has now created a panic in the market.
All of this incident has created a bad reputation for IOTA according to me. People will rethink now before investing in the IOTA project.

The hard truth is, nothing in this world can be protected forever. Whether it be a living thing or a non-living thing.
We can only try to secure a thing for as long as possible but eventually it has to go some day.
A hardware wallet is the most secure wallet out there but even that can be cracked by some means.
We just have to find a way to crack it. As  @rosezionjohn said, in this case, the wallet had a flaw by which the hackers were able to crack it.
I am sure that the flaw will be rectified soon.

Ether is the most potential coin after bitcoin which has the capability to increase more than any other altcoin.
Ether has proved itself by increasing to a price of $1400 approximately in the last bull run in 2017.
I believe Ethereum has more to offer than bitcoin as a technical platform for cryptocurrencies.
In my perspective, there will be more number of supporters for Ethereum in future than for bitcoin.
