Welcome to the forum, since you are a beginner on the bitcoin I will prefer you to read everything on the website first to gain basic knowledge about bitcoin. Here is official website, https://bitcoin.org. When you will read whitepaper you will find some answers why bitcoin has been created at the first time and what was the thoughts.

Shortly I will try to answer you instead of quote every part. Bitcoin price depend on the demand from community. When buy pressure increse then price increse as well. So it's from the beginning when bitcoin was created. If more people invest on it and hold then value will increse since its fixed supply.

If you know about bitcoin pizza day then you will get answer about your buy car. Someone had spent 10000BTC to buy pizza. Now how much worth? You should judge now what will happen after 10 years. You are buying something with current price. That's why some HODLER like to HODL btc for long time instead of buy something.

I tried it on mobile device, when click on view image it's forced to download multiple file. Unfortunately even I use cancel button but a file was downloaded (I just tried myself for test but deleted file immediately without extract it). Is this users embedded it or force from the website? Anyway file shouldn't download from unknown source and shouldn't install on the device to avoid any kind of attack.

Thanks OP for warning, most likely that users nuked since post history is ZERO.

Stock markets and bitcoin or crypto-currency markets isn't related each other directly. But sometimes we might notice stock markets impacts on bitcoin price. Its probably due to panic, who know if investors are investing on both platforms. I believe bitcoin isn't out of global economic system, so when a part from global economy dumped then it would effect to other but not always.

I am not agree with you, I believe bitcoin is a part of global economic system since we are investing on it. Aren't all investors are a part of global economy and backed bitcoin by themselves. Actually we aren't losing bitcoin anyhow, just losing if you consider against USD inacese price dump. If you bought 1 bitcoin it will ever with you, we might say we are buying bitcoin instead of investing on bitcoin since there is no such as ROI platform.

Seems you have wrong idea about blockchain, using servers sound like centralized. But for decentralized blockchain doesn't required a specific storing servers. Blockchain stored to all computers those are using full nudes. It would be miners or user like you & me. For better understanding you may read this article, Where is the blockchain stored? . All the nudes acting like backup, and all nodes get update when a new transaction broadcast on the chain. You should read know everything about blockchain to gain more knowledge.

If you are beginner in crypto then likely you will have to buy crypto with credit/debit card or with native currency. Probably you wouldn't find your expected crypto-currency to buy with credit card, so you have to start with bitcoin then you may exchange it from any reputed exchange. I will prefer use Binance to buy crypto with card then convert your bitcoin to another crypto-currency as you want if you really need it. Of course you will have to verify your account with KYC for that. Otherwise you may take a look on forum Currency Exchange section, perhaps you would found your expected crypto-currency. You may post there what you need exactly, so perhaps you will found someone from your own country. Before make any deal use forum escrow service to avoid scammers.

You may take a look on this article published by bitcoin dot com. Here is article, 13 Crypto Debit Card You Can Use Right Now. There is some provider who accept users from US, I found it by Google. So please research more before you choose any of them. I am not using any card nor I am familiar with it. I will not recommend any name. You may ask again on the forum after choose any provider, so if someone using that service they might give you accurate reviews.

"Your seed, your fund". You are allowed to use your seeds anywhere you want at anytime. This isn't web wallet or something else. But I strongly suggest not to do that. You may follow what @nc50lc has said. Just create watch only would be better option to save your funds. As much as you input your seeds on multiple devices then there is huge possibility to compromise your wallet. So better create another wallet or use watch only on the second device. For your information, if you need another wallet only to check balance and transaction then you are able to see it on any block explorer without any risk by using address only. So even you don't need to use another software. Anyway just be sure you are downloading second software from original source always. Otherwise your wallet would be hacked very easily.

You have to struggle when you are going to start any new business and of course you have to gain trust slowly but it will take time. You can't expect sudden trust from anywhere. You can start from Currency Exchange section where users are looking to exchange various currency likely PayPal, skrill, payoneer and so on. Start with small amount and gain trust from users, hope you will get more latest idea when you will start. If you want to start professionally then a website creation would be a great idea. But should aquire best knowledge before you start this business. Must use escrow services from forum if you are going to start exchange business here to avoid scams. Besides that you may start Lending business with collateral if you have enough funds. But to be honest $100/day isn't small amount.

I am assuming OP is looking into USD balance on coinbase and that's why become confuse. If you bought bitcoin via debit/credit card then they calculate in USD or you submit USD rates, but truly you have bought equal bitcoin. So if bitcoin price increase your balance will be increase, on the other hand if bitcoin price decrease then your USD balance will be decrease as well. Anyway this isn't dump question for newbies bitcoin users. But I will suggest before use bitcoin learn as much as possible.

Anyway, since you have bought bitcoin you should know about bitcoin wallet as well to store your coins. Coinbase is an exchange and custodial wallet. Storing huge amount of funds isn't safe there, you should move your fund to bitcoin wallet. If you are able to download Bitcoin Core (you have to download whole blockchain which is need huge amount of space and time). Or you may buy hardware wallet to store safe your bitcoin then you may choose Ledger Nano. If you can't afford Ledger then you may choose Electrum wallet, don't forget to verify Signature to be sure you have downloaded original software. Most important is write your seed and keep it safe on multiple places. If you lost your seed phrase means you lost your bitcoin incase if your software got delete from your device. Don't save your seed any online machine to avoid hack.

I think your two sentences conflicting each other. Of course there is concern during choose trading pair but should follow your second sentence. Because if you choose a non-potential coins then there is high risk. You should always have to select your trading pairs. Don't run all over coins, just select couple of your favourite pair would give you good profits since you would deeply concentrate on it.

Congratulations But jealous   . You merit earning speed 2X than me. This is really great achievement, I will prefer to move this thread on Beginniner & Help section to inspire newbies. So they might motivate to contribute for forum as well. Most of newbies are hopeless and they believe they are unable to rank up by earn merits. You proved that once again everything is possible by good contribution.

Keep up your good works.

Its seems you aren't tech guy and you wouldn't recover by yourself (perhaps you need learn lots of thing before recover your fund by yourself). So better option is follow as @OmegaStarScream said since they have enough good reputation here.

Besides that, don't respond to anyone who PM'ed you. Just discuss here openly if anyone want to help you or ask here before you make any deal with anyone, so we might see if the person you are going to deal is trusted. Be careful from scammers. Scammers might get advantage of your innocent.

I don't know if major percentage of bitcoin users know the concept behind bitcoin creation. But it should know everyone who are involved with bitcoin instead of just use it. Besides of get advantage of volatility we should learn the technology behind of it. But unfortunately lots of bitcoin users don't know to select proper bitcoin wallet or they aren't familiar with it. There is no end for a learner, before put your money on it it's most important to to learn how bitcoin recognizing.

As a bitcoin lover its everyone's responsibility to keep role in bitcoin adoption somehow. Generally we might keep out role to spread the word about bitcoin our nearest friends and tech them as much as we know. So the bitcoin community will more stronger.

This post doesn't belongs to Altcoin discussion. Please move it from lower left to Scam Accusation board with correct format. Its seems there was existing negative feedback on their profile Bcnex and this is their announcement thread - [ANN] BCNEX | The Ultimate Blockchain Trading Platform.. Seems there was multiple scam accusation against them when I had used search bottom of forum. Wondering why traders have been choosing such as worst exchange.

Here is the flag type 1; https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=242

Someone from victims would create flag type 3.

Left negative feedback and support flags.

What does mean crypto tutorials? You don't know about crypto-currency? I strongly believe you will found ton of tutorials in your native language on YouTube. Just try to search what is crypto-currency and how to earn it. But don't look for quick earning method to avoid scam. Nothing is free in the world.

@OP, my question is how you know about this forum and how you know about bounty? If someone had introduced to you then likely he could help you. Or if you found this forum via Google then YouTube could help you. But remember, most of bounty campaign turning into scam and some aren't even worth of gas fee. So likely you are to lost your time. Better to find some real and potential earning sources or find real life job/business.

Perhaps this video would help you, How to bruite force bitcoin wallet. As far as I know that person have good knowledge about it, but it is only learning purpose, I haven't tried it myself. You may learn from video and get details from mentioned by @math09183.

By the way, even you hadn't save your seed? Or private keys from your wallet? Remember, don't forgot to backup your wallet file and don't share it with any third party. Perhaps some scammers would send PM to you for recover your funds. If its happen just share with us so we can see if the person is trusted. Don't lose your fund with scammers. Be careful and try yourself only and download any kind of script from trusted source only.

I am not one of them who trade by depends on price chart. Yes, its help you to realize previous price trend but doesn't mean this pattern will repeat again. We may just imagine a pattern according to our mind, it would match with reality. Predictions by analyse chart would not correct, there is no such as clear explanation about it. Different people make different chart pattern according to knowledge and experience. So on that case you will have to realize yourself from your past experiences how your thoughts work and you should take decisions accordingly.

To be honest I am not familiar with any mobile games, I know its unbelievable but its true. Because I never bothered to install it on my device either mobile or PC. But this thought came on my mind when I heard some of younger brothers from my local area are addicted on mobile gaming. So I asked them why just no try something else to earn money via internet instead of spending time on free gaming. But I surprised when I heard their answers, according to them there is reward for gaming so called some coins (probably just a internal algorithm) and they are able to sold it to other users and could earn. Then I ask is it bitcoin? They said no, that's something else. So then I thoughts why there is no something like gaming with btc rewards. So couple of questions was in on my mind. Who know its because of transactions fee? Or just gaming companies scamming innocent people by selling their fake algorithms?

I am assuming that probably yesterday dump happened for this whales move. There is high chances that sent address is belongs to an exchange either exchange move their fund themselves to another wallet address. Because if exchange use new genarated address then likely it hasn't marked yet. Because from my previous experience bitcoin react (pump or dump) when happen something similar bitcoin whales movement. This is one of important symptom of manipulation of bitcoin price.

Well explain. I have encountered such as pump on the telegram channel although I hadn't participate but follow them. Actually they were well prepared and start sending notification from one day before. Next day send multiple notification to become prepare. And eventually they announced coin name. But when I saw the price chart price was already pumped. How possible get profits by entering pumped coin? Then coin start dumping and dumped. So I believe so many peoples got REKT during that time. Actually I don't believe any such as quick profits method nor I had participated such as signal.
