The blockchain's disadvantage is the hassle of making transactions and users can easily lose money if they fill in the wrong wallet.

That is not the fault of the blockchain because what you are refering to is already a crypto . crypto are ireversible and your right  . once the transaction have been processed there is no other way to reverse or cancell it  . thats why its always advisable to double check the wallet that you are sending to before your proceed  .  blockchain tech is only the platform or the technology where cryptos are running thru   .
4902  Economy / Economics / Re: Will the next economic collapse trigger massive crypto adoption? on: April 14, 2019, 08:20:14 AM
Yes collapse can trigger a massive adoption  because this attracts alot of potential investors as well as existing crypto investors  . the harder the collapse the more coins they will buy  but aside from that , the pump or the bull can also attract investors to invest more and they wont mind buying the coins at a higher price because in their minds they think that they can still recover the money that they  put on   .  there are still alot of factors actually that can trigger mass adoption not only these two  .
4903  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can any analysis predict btc price for the next month? on: April 14, 2019, 07:14:44 AM
yes analysis are the ones that traders and investors use to predict the price  but that was only a mere prediction no one can prove that the prediction based on analysis can became true  . btc prices are still verry unpredictable because of thier unstableness   .  but people are expecting the the value can continue to grow because the overall market is now healthy not unlike to last year that crypto are always in the red zone  .
4904  Economy / Economics / Re: Time for investment on: April 14, 2019, 05:50:14 AM
We are in an uptrend right now, look for days with a little red, to find some good entry points into the market, going 80 to 90% into bitcoins are the safest bet, as bitcoin will lead the market, but most coins in top20 will be good to buy when we are in a market like this.
And today is a good time again, the market is red once again.

Bitcoin will lead the market as always but I disagree that not everything on top 20 is a good buy.

yes, your right, only half the top20 coins are worth to invest into, But I think most traders have their own favorite coins, they know when to buy and sell to make some good swing trads.

Nah, I think quarters of the top 20 assets/alternative cryptocurrency is the only worth to invest because they have the biggest platform. Some of the coins in the top 20 are not quite good and doesn't have any stable value. I don't really recommend to invest to those, Bitcoin is the key for earning a good profit. After that, make a little investment in ETH and BCH, it might give you a valuable thing too.

why call them top if they are not the best ? and what do you think is the reason why they are among the top 20 spot ?  investing or putting your fund in each of them is a good idea when compare to investing on unrated coins because you can be sure that you can recover your capital .  its also normal that they dont have a stable value because crypto is really known to be unstable due to the effects of thier volatility feature   . time of investment will varry depending on the investor  . some will wait for the dip while some will buy and hodl  .
4905  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is the cryptocurrency market starting to improve slowly? on: April 14, 2019, 03:21:24 AM

There are to types of improvement for crypto based on my own analysis  . the following are :

1.)  the price  .  as we notice , the price of cryptos before were super duper low . what causes that   ?  The drop of the price are cause of manipulation , news ( fake news that are bad or negative which can cause panic ) fuds and speculation , etc ....

2.) The adoption and development  . as we notice before majoroty of the countries are banning and re stricting the use of cryptos  . the stores ,merchants and companies before are not recognizing or not  have been partnered with crypto  .

Both numbers above are now have improve  .
4906  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am done with KYC on: April 14, 2019, 02:22:07 AM
Yeah! Better to ask for KYC requirement at first. But there is one thing which is best thing for it. There is a rules which the bounty manager should initiates this. They only got the kyc requirements of every participants once the distribution of token is final to avoid stealing of personal identity of others.
each manager or team has a different policy. sometimes there are announcements that do not need KYC but after the campaign is finished they announce a new rule for charging KYC. we as bounty hunters can only follow to get rewards. as long as the requirements are still normal I don't think it's a big problem.
we have to calculate with its reward value too.personally i will not pass kyc if its value only small amount.i am prefer to keep my document than give it to strenght people.

Right . kyc is serious thing to be consider because our personal identity is at stake here  .  if a bounty pays small i dont think its worth the risk  but if a bounty pays huge rewards ( for example : 200 usd and up ) i think its already worth to do  but the only problem is that most bounty campaign and airdrops do only pays with their own token and their tokens is usually unlisted .  how can we identify the value that way  ?    Even the project is good , that wont still be guarantee that they could gather alot of investor.
4907  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Confidence in Cryptocurrency on: April 13, 2019, 11:48:50 PM
I am still confident about crypto, many people give up this year. I still believe that crypto will grow in the future

whats their reason of giving up this year when infact this year is more better than previous year ( 2018 )  . i guess you are only saying it wrong but i like your spirit  . i see that you are confident which is good  . we all must posses that trait because being confident are the ones that can push your self to keep on hodling or continuing what ever work you are doing related to cryptocurrencies  . and  yes crypto can surely grow more in the future   .
4908  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bear market,a blessing in disguise on: April 13, 2019, 11:15:50 PM
In bear market, some peoples still can make profits from trading and buying popular coins with cheap price.

its only possible to trade and earn an income if you bought your coins before at a verry low rate but if you are a late buyer and you buy your coins at a mid price ,  trading at bears might not be really  a good idea for you to do  .  buying coins with cheap price arent going to give you a profit but you are loosing cash because you are spending  . you can only earn a profit when you sell  .

Quote
This is not about the condition of the market, but this is about the strategy you use not matter what is the market situation.

no matter how good your strategy but if the market will remain on dump/bear do you think your you can earn a profit ? you can buy sure but thats the only thing that you can do  .    its about the market condition mate   . the reality is we all need a bull/pump
4909  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are altcoins useless? on: April 13, 2019, 10:38:22 PM
Yes, of course, many altcoins are actually useless ... But there are many altcoins that are widely used in everyday life. Not many projects have a finished product or platform for their coins.

What use ? For paying and buying ? Or in short as a currency use ?   Or maybe for investment ?   But bitcoin can do that already    .  what alts can do btc can also do  . only one altcoin is different and has a real unique usage  and that is eth because eth can be used as gas to trade alts and erc20 tokens  . eth can also be used for ico to create their own token  . overall,  id say 1 alt is useful and others are only a replica of btc 
4910  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What today you can buy for the crypto? on: April 13, 2019, 01:08:43 PM
> snipped <

In what country you are residing ?  Most countries nowadays including the poorer ones do already legalize and started using cryptos offline . you may not find all stores that accept cryptos but there is atleast 1 to 2 stores locally that will try to accept it  .  or maybe you are not only aware with it ?  Anyway  you can use some store locator or you can also use google  . type in the keyword crypro + store + your country   .  goodluck hunting  .
4911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Shower thought. Why is Bitcoin hard to define? on: April 13, 2019, 09:14:16 AM
A non-Bitcoiner friend asked me, "What is Bitcoin?", I was unable to answer directly as my mind was racing to find an answer. My first instinct was to tell him that it was a "peer to peer digital ecash for the internet", but should something global, trustless, provably scarce, independent, open, and censorship-resistant be described as something so shallow?

Bitcoin is much more, but it's very hard to find the words to describe it.
Don't explain bitcoin on a difficult way to understand, try to explain it in a simple way, like, bitcoin is a digital currency that we can use online like buying kinds of stuff or paying online bills, or simply say, it is already one of our currencies now like fiat the difference between the two is that, bitcoin can only be used online while fiat is used for physical stores.
True, be a teacher and know your student, it's easy to educate them if you know them.
Bitcoin is complicated to some, especially those who sees it a wrong way, like they see it as an investment rather than a cryptocurrency.

If other people see it as an investment than a curency , i think those people are already aware with a crypto and there is no point of teaching them  . explaining them that crypto should be primary used a currency and not as investment will only make the situation worst because they will only argue on what you are trying to explain  .  me , i dont teach people around me but ill only wait if they will ask me something about bitcoin and crypto . thats the time that ill teach them in a non technical way  .
4912  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITCOIN Dump! - When to GET OUT! on: April 13, 2019, 07:39:36 AM
I think there would be no dump but we couldn't be so sure about it the market is so unpredictable,
We couldn't expect anything from it,It could be pumping now and then just drop off after a few hours or days .
We don't know what could happen so let's just stay positive and enjoy it.

The market looks good and should continue the uptrend and this would only boost the way the crypto is being look in the recent months as market in 2018 had being only falling. So this will help people to start investing as will have more demand as the price rises in order for them to invest.

A bullish market is what investors are hoping, but we have to put in mind to understand that the market is really unpredictable.
We are hoping it will pump so we can sell, but if not we should not be discourage because the moment we invested here, we already believe in the potential of crypto and understanding it will help us to become strong build confidence to wait for the good timing.

not only bull but bear is also what the most are hoping because how can they buy a coin if the prices are way too expensive ? sure they can sell high but thats it ?  crypto is about waiting  . so bieng patience plays a vital role  and when its dump there is no need for us to panic because the dump is only temporary and wont last a life time  , same as with the bulls .  we need to act fast when it bulls but we need to wait more time when its bear  . as simple as that .  there is no need for us to get out  .
4913  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How to make money from staking? on: April 13, 2019, 06:50:02 AM
You probably should stake with staking devices or use staking services.

To be honest this was my first time to hear a staking device and a staking service  . what i thought all the time is that stake coins are only being hold inside the wallet   . however i still dont know if staking a coin is more profitable that holding a crypto alone as an investment.   I think its also depend on the coin but crypto has more variety of good coins than compare to stake based coins  .  bitcoin for example .  bitcoin can pump hard in a matter of short time  but stake coins might take time to profit .
4914  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers will go after IEO soon on: April 13, 2019, 02:31:29 AM
It's not easy to become a Scammers in the IEO. Because not all IEOs succeed quickly. Investors are now cautious. Certainly it is impossible for investors to invest in less well-known Exchange. Of course exchanges affect everything. This is a new thing, people will easily get an advantage in investing in the IEO. Of course scammers are not easy to do that.

if ieo's dont succeed quickly  ,  then i think its easy for a scammer to hop in it  because they can just pretend that they are legit  and its a win win siutation for then because they scam people in a longer duration  . not unlike to ico's that scamming can come and go  , they are quick and the scamers are jumping from one project to another  .

it is possible  . if they invested on ico before where almost all ico are have uknown sources , they can also have the guts to invest and take the risk on unkown ieo's  .

scammers are smart  . they can easily build a new exchange and that exchange will be used for ieo's
4915  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is your trading strategy? on: April 13, 2019, 01:52:01 AM
Think of the capital first. After that we can think of a strategy to trade. Prepare partial capital to buy coins. Both in the form of money and forms of BTC. Because it will be easy if you have 2 of these capital. then look for premium signals that provide safe trading predictions. That's what I do.

premium trading signals ? i though those things are not free because whats the purpose of calling them premium at the first place  ? if ever you find free premium signals those are either scam or fake   .

while there are also group on telegram and other messaging platform that provides signal though they are not premium but their predictions are not really that accurate  but that is better than nothing  . atleast this gives you an edge on what coin is in and whats out  .
4916  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Regulations only for BTC to increase in FIAT value? on: April 12, 2019, 08:07:45 PM
regulation can stabilize the value of btc  . so no ,  but regulation isnt only meant for this purpose  .  regulation also helps reduce scamming and other frauds  . this could be better done on ico and other crypto coins that are not yet established because this can give them a credibility .  regulation also helps people to gain trust and if they have trusted the project , more people are expected to invest  . this helps out the adoption to grow  .

regulation is trully beneficial but it think this kills the real purspose of cryptos which is being decentralized  .
4917  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC To 9K$, China Banned miners on: April 12, 2019, 07:27:07 PM
I don’t see it as good news in the main time, if they ban miners, they are indirectly banning BTC then,

they dont say that they ban btc  .they only say that they ban miners  . btc users are still welcome to use btc on thier country i guess .

which is not too good for us, miners can always come from region and what is exactly the population of miners in China for us to start jubilating their ban

reduced numbers of miners is not bad beause this give some space to the mining industry . this loosen the difficulty in mining which is good  . this gives other a chance to join and earn more in mining   .

Anyway, we still cannot fully speculate that the Ban will have any effect on BTC, let us see how it goes this period and see if truly, their ban has any influence in the current market supply.

if the news was true . the ban do have some minor effects  but some said that the news was only a hoax  . it might be a scare to others for them to panic .

Ripple is not a cryptocurrency but something what can be created from nothing.
I share your point of view. Ripple cannot be considered a cryptocurrency at all.

if ripple is not a cryptocurrency then why it is here in the crypto market ?  ripple isnt really a bad coin besides it is already in the top 3 list based on cmc ranking  . im not an investor of crypto but if ever im going to invest or trade im surely going to consider ripple in my portfolio   .

mostly you have potential altcoins, I'm sure one of them will go double the price if bitcoin increase again, well good luck. Smiley

agree on what you said . i do also see that the op already hold alot of good coins  . when the market pumps or when the btc rises again  , not only one one of his coins can double their price but  almost all of them  . this why we should prioritize btc over other cryptos if we want other cryptos to increase


4919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Blockchain Ecosystems May Change the Face of Online Gambling on: April 12, 2019, 11:31:11 AM
Addiction cannot be changed because it is related to one's personality in,

You got a point but its not about the addiction that will change once gambling integrate with blockchain . its about the fairness and the look or the style  that will be noticeable .

Blockchain is really changing the gambling industry because alot of user are now interested to play gambling online compare to the traditional gambling sites because they can now easily deposit and withdraw their funds anonimously with the help of crypto of course .
4920  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours a day are you spending on online gambling? on: April 12, 2019, 10:14:07 AM
I spend now very low time for online gambling, under 1 hour but under 1 hour in a week, in past years i spend more time on online gambling and i gamble almost every day but now i forget about it and is not so profitable for me.

May I know what are you gambling at?
I usually game in sports betting and especially in football and I spend a lot of time because one match lasts at least 90 minutes. And when I spend more time I am getting tricked and play more and more.

You can just place your bet and leave the site for a while  . come back again later or after the match have been finished  . in that way , you cant kill so much time . you can use that time on more important work .   that may also help you to become less adicted on sports betting  .  you can also try other kind of gambling that is more fast paced (  e.g dice , hi/lo )  with those games , you dont need to wait a long time for the results  .
