4861  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple surge. The rest of altcoins also rally and leave bitcoin? on: September 18, 2019, 10:15:10 PM
Let's be honest here, XRP always made a sudden move without using any pattern. Did you remember a few months ago when we got a huge dump but XRP got a good pump?
even though it made a nice gain, it does not mean it will take a lead. For the long term, everything is decided by Bitcoin no doubt about that.
it is just they have a special condition that could move the price since they're holding quite a lot of coins in their pocket.
Developers have a lot of opportunities to manipulate the price, we have already seen this many times before.
This will be another hype but why not take this opportunity by selling our stored tokens were we've been holding for many years. I know this hype will never take longer and turn back down in few days not unless if we are finally in the bull run. But the market isn't still there, BTC is still not moving high and not all altcoins are in the move also which it finally thinks that this a manipulated price happens with XRP now.

Trading stocks is quite a different game than trading crypto. There you have earning reports, events, company acquisitions, mergers, etc. However technical analysis still applies very much to the equity markets. Just that you need to take into consideration the aspects of that environment like the ones I've mentioned Wink
This is much important to know about TA's and have it in our own cause it definitely we can used it the future especially when you are in trading and in business. Failures will be at its near if we don't have this, but it is not enough for us to stop thinking for a new beginning. And to consider such failures as a learning tool which we are able to guide us along with our trading journey.

It is quite unusual cause some of us just quit after they suffer failure and losses. But if we think for positive and if we are strong enough, it greatly we go far beyond the limit.
4863  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not ignore the small profits in Bitcoin investments. on: September 18, 2019, 02:07:38 PM
Snipped...

Because small profits is the beginning to success. Because if you hold small amount and wait for the right price you want you can earn more than you expect.ln day trading you can just earn now a small amount.but if you just patiently monitor the price you can save little by little in every trade.
Supposedly it was but not all of us have that attitude and such thoughts.
In fact, we are much aiming for high which is apparently hard to achieve this time. For me, it is much important to have some even it just of few bucks returns cause this is to say that we earned something and its something is big in the near future.

Just like us human, we started from infants and it grows old after for many years. It will be the same as we start in business from small into big returns depending on the market situation.
4864  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Shower thought. Bitcoin ETF bad? on: September 17, 2019, 11:46:19 PM
Shouldn't the communty discourage the creation of anything that gives up the custody of Bitcoin to third parties?

Although it might be good for its price, would it be good for Bitcoin as a censorship-resistant hard money?


Depends on how people understand well about ETF regulations, because a lot of the cyrpto holders since from the beginning of the proposal if  iam not wrong is against into ETf regulation to control crypto currency as independent digital currency and the bad result of ETF bcrto is undressed by the government their price value, but until now their nothing comfirmation about etf status approval. Meaning no need to worry all abput etf issue until the government not approve.

It's better we are not skeptical beforehand with the existence of the Bitcoin ETF. Maybe ETFs can be a good start for Bitcoin or cryptocurrency in terms of regulation and price. With ETF many investment companies might be interested in the cryptocurrency market and this could make the cryptocurrency market excited again
I don't see that people will consider this as a good start for Bitcoin most especially if the intention is to regulate its market price and being controlled by a group of people. Not actually wanted to be like but they want to remain its high volatility cause it gives us more profit than of having a stable price.
We could say that we are excited to see the effect of this in the market but I don't know if those results are highly acceptable to the community or just having regrets.
4865  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When Bitcoin pumps in 2020 after halving, what effect will it have alt coins? on: September 17, 2019, 11:31:08 PM
There have two possibilities! Altcoins can grow with the Bitcoin-like 2017! Or Bitcoin dominance can surpass 80% and Altcoins may fall down more! Only reputed altcoins will have volume, and other most of the altcoins will face a huge decline!
I don't think that the coming bull run ( if ever it has) it will look the same as what 2017 happenings. It for sure it lifts some altcoins but not all of them, not just we consider their market volume but to consider their market potential which people are looking for. We could say that still there are numbers of altcoins remain from where they are today (sleeping dead).

Even some potential altcoins out there are being overseen by the investors because they are more focusing on Bitcoin and the most top altcoins in the market. This will also affect the altcoins trend and making them down even Bitcoin is already soaring high.
4866  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pacquiao Vs Mayweather 2 on: September 17, 2019, 09:49:42 AM
I guess it's really hard to separate the name of the two, one really needs each other to make more money.

Yeah, because people are still debating who is the greatest between them although Mayweather already beat Manny when they fought years back.
People were not contented, they think Manny was rob, or Manny lost because he injured his shoulder, now that he is fully healthy, people wants to see them fight again. In addition, people are still think the possibility because although Mayweather have retired already but from time to time he has an exhibition match with great fighters too. Mayweather has to come back and risk his undefeated record.
4867  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Another Bear Market coming soon? on: September 17, 2019, 09:30:07 AM
altcoin is over, there is no bullish for altcoin. so don't get your hopes up for a rally for altcoin in the future.

in Q4 or later in the year only bitcoin will start the bull trend. because in March 2020 bitcoin will be halving.

Are you sure about that? so you are saying that altcoins has no chance to rise anymore?

Well, it's your opinion so you can say that but I'm sure majority will oppose on your opinion because we believe that this market will be more successful if we have altcoins in the market. This bear market for altcoins might last long but it will only make legit altcoins to be stronger, what we are witnessing now is the price of altcoins is cheap but I think its just undervalued.

We are facing an opportunity here, this altcoins might be cheap now but they will not die sooner or later.
4868  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Dont be surprised if ETH hits 4000$ on: September 17, 2019, 07:56:51 AM
A bit of price recovery over the last couple of days, but to put it in perspective the rise has been only a few dollars - I do think ETH can hit $4k eventually, but it does look a long time away.
Yes it takes a long time to reach $ 4k, I think it will happen after halving Bitcoin, all Altcoin will shine again at that time. So for those you who have more funds maybe to be very suitable for buying ETH now and holding for long-term investment.
We all like to see ETH to rise more, but at this stage, I'd rather be conservative because I saw the struggle of ETH.
Things might be different now and onward as the longer this market exist, people are more matured also, honestly, I would be very happy if ETH will again reach $1000 which it needs to rise couple more times from its current price now of only $198 only.

Actually I will be surprise if that will happen in short term, next year is halving and probably the release of ETH 2.0, if the market goes like the last bull run, then I think we might see a new high of ETH but $4K is less likely.
4869  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Last 3 Months of 2019! What is your prediction about the Market? on: September 16, 2019, 10:38:12 PM
Lots of reason we can expect a good market in the last quarter of this year.

First China enveloping now their chance by lifting the crypto ban and even creating now their own stable coin and future crypto project.

Secondly, Bakkt will be launch on 23 of September pretty sure bitcoin price will be unstable as the time pass by. But I feel very bullish that in November alt season will happen and those shitcoin can be revive again.
Something everyone is so sure of the growth of the entire cryptocurrency after the launch of the bact. But there are definitely no special prerequisites for this movement. I'm afraid that we need to wait for growth by 2020. What does this growth be closer to the end of 2020, and not at the very beginning.
We are still in the 50/50 market growth speculations either we go up or down after the Bakkt. Will it appreciate if this Bakkt will give a positive impact to the entire market and not just for Bitcoin alone, it hopes that it could also help altcoins to move a little bit high as they are sleeping for a long time.
But I feel that this year is not as great as it is. Anyway, isn't bad at all the price is quite good as it happens last year but most exciting if we experience bull run again.
4870  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Eth bullrun on next BTC ATH? on: September 16, 2019, 10:17:43 PM
If BTC price cycles continue, then the return to ATH will be in 2020. And the culmination of the big bull run will be in 2021. But will ETH repeat its story? In 2017, there was a lot of ICO, it was the fuel for the growth of Ethereum. What now, Ethereum 2.0? Unlikely.
We didn't know if ICO will do great things again and turning back what they did last 2017. It all just be hopes cause ICO now is not really as great and can be trusted at this point. We indulge into IEO today but isn't a way that could help to drag ETH not unless if BTC will help this time.

Well, it has to think if the history repeats itself cause the market now looks so different than of before. If ever there is a chance that ETH will move high but I don't think that it will be that high as it happens last 2017.
4871  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of banking industry in blockchain on: September 16, 2019, 10:18:01 AM
Usually big banks are more eager in experimenting in new technology, so they will be the first to implement it, don't worry about the small banks as they will eventually follow the big banks, what matters now is banks are adopting with blockchain and that's tantamount to adopting in crypto as well.

When crypto will be widely accepted by bank, that is gonna be a great news for the market, and I believe there's a big possibility that it will happen in the future as we already have a lot of regulated exchanges which they can have legal partnership with banks who supports crypto as well.

It will take time but it will happen for sure.  Smiley
4872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling affected your personal reputation? on: September 16, 2019, 09:48:08 AM
The majority of voters as I noticed all say NO. In my part, gambling has no effect on my personal image because you can hide through using online gambling if you are really passionate about gambling. I did not gamble outside, so nobody knows that I am in gambling and there are too many online gamblings now that you can use while you are in your room. This is very easy to gamble and very convenient to use and cryptocurrency will fit regarding payment.
If gambling is my passion, I would not hide it, it's what we love so we should be proud of it, IMO, our reputation will only be affected based on what we are doing if it's illegal and if gambling is not illegal in our country, there is nothing to hide at all, let the people know what you are doing and maybe educate them that gambling is not as bad as they think.

You are the one who can prove that, if you are doing well, I mean you are having fun even you are losing, and it's not affecting your positive way of living, you should be alright to gamble.
4873  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: About bounty program on: September 13, 2019, 10:37:39 PM
In bounty programs, not just only talking about signature campaigns but also they have other programs just like twitter, telegram and etc...
But as a newbie, you are just restricted to join surely in signature but not with the other programs. It also depends on the set rules of the bounty campaign. For that sure, you must have to read their roles carefully and so you'll never waste your time in promoting their project just for free.
4874  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not ignore the small profits in Bitcoin investments. on: September 13, 2019, 10:10:03 PM
Buy the dip and sell the peak has become a slogan these days. Don't you think if it was that easy to identify the dip and the peak then almost everybody would have done that already.
Definitely not and that is why we all making our own speculation. Volatility remains at its strength and making the price like a roller coaster

So I think it's okay if we miss the little opportunities because there is a bigger one waiting that we could grab and seek all the profits that we would have made by such little investments.
Little by little it becomes big, things that we shouldn't have to miss.
The market still struggling hard, that is most important to grab any opportunities that are given to us even it is just small amount but thinking that it is our lose also if we never take advantage of it.
4875  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever invested in an ICO? on: September 13, 2019, 03:34:19 PM
At 2018 I started trying to invest in ICO. However, I didn't get the benefit because the project stopped halfway. Maybe because the project is fake and when they get the investor money, then they leave.

That thing is pretty obvious. Some of us take advantage of the current technology we have today and they actually use this to scam others. This is the main reason why investors losing their trust in crypto.

Last 2017, is the great days of altcoins and ICO ever but it turns down not too long because of rampant scamming activities. It looks bad and that is why we still suffering a long bearish season and not even seeing bull run yet. Will it hope that it changed and bringing back the trust of investors again.
4876  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling just for fun? on: September 13, 2019, 11:27:30 AM

While gambling is enjoyable and there are also a chance to double or more than your money

That's the difference between having fun with gambling. We can just get the chance to win when playing and that certainly can get money. Different from other games like golf or bowling which is only for fun.
So it's not wrong, if people have fun playing gambling.

But we can loss our money as well, the problem with some gamblers is they only see the bright side.

Gambling is risky although we will say that we are having fun here because we are using money to have fun, and sometimes, with lack of discipline this result to losing control and bad things happen like gambling beyond our budget, and you know when that happens, it will affect the family, your job, and your relations with people around you. Gambling addiction is the worst thing that could happen to a gambler, so we need to be discipline all the time.
4877  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 on: September 13, 2019, 11:06:31 AM
Ricky Rubio had a double2 with 19 points and 12 assists.
Marc Gasol had 33 points from 11/19 shooting.

We can say that they carried their team to be in the Finals, this two deserve a heroes welcome when they come back home.

Sergio Llull did help with the points with 17 points, but he has a very poor shooting percentage, same with Rubio, but Rubio make some good plays, and he is not known to be a good shooter also but a good play maker, that's his role in the NBA as well.
4878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: September 13, 2019, 09:32:41 AM
The Detroit Piston added some shooting power into their bench. Joe Johnson signed up with the team after a successful stint at Ice Cube's Big 3 league. The guy may be old but he can still shoot well. https://www.msn.com/g00/en-us/sports/nba/joe-johnson-signs-with-pistons-after-mvp-stint-in-big3/

Good addition don't you think?


Yeah, he is a good addition to Detroit. His experience is what Detroit needs. He is also a physical player who is not afraid for a physical game that fits the tradition of Detroit.
The traditional kind of game where these bad boys were known for.  Though those old days are gone and the type of basketball is no longer physical, but his addition to this team will bring a good impact. He's a defensive and offensive threat, and his experience with this league is a  plus factor. It just needs to be incorporate with his new teammates and the coaching staff to maximize his capabilities.
I would not expect too much for him as he left the NBA with a bad statistics, now he is back, he should prove it again that he can still play physical despite his current age now. He is a BIG 3 MVP and I'm not so aware of this league as I don't think it's popular but compared to the NBA, he won't be getting any MVP award as the award now are dominated by the young ones.

I was reading this link

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/2019/09/12/big-3-mvp-joe-johnson-signs-one-year-deal-detroit-pistons/2301950001/
Did it mentioned how much he will get for 1 year contract?
4879  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why transactions take so much time? on: September 12, 2019, 11:34:04 PM
Hello! To be honest, I'm so tired of waiting for transactions. I use changelly and I have to wait for my transaction for 5-30 minutes and that's exhausting. Do you know exchanges with faster transactions?
Not familiar to that(changelly) but for that long, it is just fair to me. Withdrawal and deposit it takes a while to process and it needs blockchain confirmations, and it also varies depending on fees and network traffic that it sometimes we need minutes or hours to have the final confirmation. I don't see instant transfers in here as it needs confirmation but if it happens all the times, there might have a problem with that site.
4880  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We are only rich on spreadsheets on: September 12, 2019, 11:20:11 PM
Yes, that's what bounties these days make us. They show us big big rewards on their spreadsheets but the real values of those rewards they offer us are sometimes not even up to $5 on the market. I feel bounty hunters are only being used as baits by project owners to catch their investors virtually for free. What do you think guys ?
It makes me smile and sounds ridiculous but that is the reality. It is really hard to think that we have millions of tokens but it is not tradable yet or nobody is buying with this shit coins. How it makes sense? Nothing but worst experience...but not just we end up our crypto life because of that, we have to move on.

I have learned things like that before and I still have those dead coins in my wallet but it is accepted that it might be happening and I just consider those coins(shit) as a souvenir/collections...lol
