There is a difference between day trading and HODLing mate!
BTC-USD day trading is possible if the OP is good with trading and can make some good decisions. Trading is a profitable way of increasing your coins and also making some huge profit at the long run from the value. So why would anyone want to hold, if they can make profit from what they are holding ?

Based on market flotations I choose day trading and holding options. There will be no meaning of going for day trading when market does not have enough fluctuations.

Thanks a lot Bazista and aTriz. Another quick payment.

Earning bitcoin is just the same as earning a living outside the crypto community. You have to work hard, put some effort and be smart as well. It is not about luck except someone who is pretty much hoping on jackpot or gambling which most times it is even very hard before you can get a win unless luck is just so much shining on you.

Unproductive services like you have mentioned will only end up giving non tangible results for earning which at the end, just like OP, such a person would have ended up having wasted years.

Experience of analyzing market behaviors is what can really help anyone to make close to pretty good predictions. This still does not guarantee anything anyway, as the market can swing to which ever direction quickly based on any news in the market which is why it is always good to always stay close to the news every now and then so as not to miss those signals.

Even it is hard, if you are capable of reading charts then you can easily predict market movements. Honestly that capability is not possible for all the traders. But I am making that possible as I have been into trading more than 5 years.

You are right! It totally depends on the angle you are looking at it from. Lots of wise investors have invested in some pretty good coins and they have made a lot of bucks and they are still making till date.

For long term investment, finding out everything about the project is very paramount, so you do not just end up holding a hit coin and thinking you will get the best from it in the long run. You will only hear one day that it is totally out of the market and from all exchanges.

There are always some little details that most people always miss out when joining campaigns which usually make them to end up doing a free job, and any serious campaign manager will not even be nice to ever consider you cause rules are rules. It is always best to go through rules and make sure they are instilled in one's head while on a campaign.

For bounty campaigns though, most people can do 40 campaigns at a goal so please tell me how they want to know if there is any development or remember most of the rules in those campaign most especially for twitter and FB campaigns.

You cannot say any amount. It all depends on the kind of project and the budget it needs to start no matter how small the project may seem. One thing is confirmed, starting little is good and it can be built from there but whoever is going into any business will still have to be realistic to know what he actually needs to kick the ball rolling for that little start without flopping and building it from there.

I believe any small amount also will be enough when we are having a new innovative business idea as more people will be ready to contribute when the idea is good so they will help a business to get built.

Obviously, I did not expect any coin not to jump up after the fork since that is usually the normal trend as we are experiencing it now. However, for how long they will keep staying up is what I am not sure of before the next upcoming fork. I guess we will just have to see how it all turns out. Right now, ETH is not really giving me that expected push that I want, but patience might just make it worthwhile.

It is truly difficult to know how fast it would jump. Even the fact that it has jumped a little is as a result of all the altcoins recovering, even though during all these time, it has been trying to fair pretty well. However, it doesn't seem to want to get past $320 - $340 at the moment and I really hope it does before the next fork.

BTG live up to expectation ? Are we even expecting anything from a shit coin ?

BTG will be dumped very fast even by the devs themselves, and I see the coin as just a scam. Everyone will quickly want to pick up the little value they can quickly get from it as fast as possible. BTC on the other hand is what I do not see dropping after the 25th fork, it is possible we see a pretty much more rise or a stable price before the November fork.

You are very correct.
Bangkok  has been a pretty awesome tourist area for so many years now and with the casinos you have mentioned, it will even make the usage of bitcoin more important to use for most of the gamblers in this region. It will truly be the next huge adoption and in this year alone, we have seen a lot of this by government of so many countries and in the next few years, we should even see more.

It is always funny to me how people perceive trading to be an easy task you can just quickly dabble into and start making huge profit.

If it is as easy as that then we all would have been making some pretty good profit. Choosing a good coin to invest is all about the team, the project that makes the coin tick and how well people are going to utilize that which of course creates demand is what makes a good coin.

Lots of ICOs today do not even have a product, with some wacky team and people just invest their money. How do they expect not to get scammed or invest in a shitty coin?

Well, if you can find yourself some pretty good altcoin, you can just hold some of them a little while you still have your bitcoin for the fork. However, even though we do not know how fast most of these altcoins are going to get pumped, I would advise you wait a little until after the fork and quickly buy some and then see how events turn out while you cash out profit.

Do not get too greedy though, no matter how little you get, dump it and wait for the next fork cause I still perceive some more bleeding before then.

I really thought it was a joke and then I really checked. Even on coinmarketcap classified as BTG Pre-launch. This is just absolute bullshit. I am not surprised anyway, they are all scammers, both the coin and yobit itself. How can a coin start trading before the fork.

One of the reasons bittrex gave a huge warning on why every users should be careful and why they will not in anyway list it. Good anyway for those who had their funds on yobit, but it just sucks and shows a whole lot of reason why this coin is dead on arrival.

Yeah he value and the price of the bitcoin is increasing but the most important thing is the safety so if you are having the time and the well secure wallet then your bitcoin will grow more and more and it will be very easy for you to hold the bitcoin for the long time and to invest in it if you want o buy more bitcoin it is very important to remain in the bitcoin forum and use the different sites for the shopping in the bitcoin.

There are just some coins that screams scam from afar. It is just left for every investors to thread carefully to make sure they do not fall a victim for such coins. Every prospectful coin will have a great team behind them and not just some random team that apparently looks like they want to suck you dry.

There are some coins I have invested in that obviously does not have a very huge known team but looks serious and already have a product, with a lovely idea they are willing to build, I can always give such a shot egconfido but there are just some that won't even give you anything to capitalize on and I really do wonder how people tend to fall for them, like they used voodoo on them or something.

Electrum wallet is a decentralized wallet and you have access to your private keys, so you are very much on the right track. So, just keep your funds in your wallet and after the fork, you will be guided or you can look for resources online on how to get your forked coin making use of your private key.

Sure, ICOs have the possibilities of having a huge increase as time goes on but that does not mean a lot of profit cannot still be made with bitcoin based on what one can afford.

We all don't know what the peak value or ATH of bitcoin will stop at, so if it is possible to have some of it, diversify the portfolio just a bit, then i see no reason why. However, investing in ICOs should be something one should be careful of as most of them can still end up failing, so it is a higher risk.

I really will not be surprised with the upcoming recent events. It could push it to the top or not, but even if it doesn’t get to the top 10 by the end of 2018, it will be pretty close. The crypto world is large and there are so many altcoins fighting for the top 10 position and I am sure even the ones there now are trying hard not to get stepped down, so it will be pretty hard to really get to that top 10.

It is really about to change and the developments will give it that boost and change very soon. It has been an interesting project and the devs have been working pretty hard and if all things can go pretty fine, then next year will be a good one for them. However, top 10 is what I cannot really guarantee.

I truly wonder. People are always looking for the easy way out and just don’t want to do any work.
These guys who even call these signals are the same guys who switched from pump and dump groups with the awareness that people are now wiser with the idea of pump and dump being scammed.

Check telegram and you will see a lot of them. These guys are only after making profit for themselves, they tell their followers to buy and hold at certain price and once the price shoots up, they dump and leave the users at the mercy of themselves and in making their own decisions to sell at loss or hold longer.

From what you heard, it is not true and you should not pay close attention to everything you read without you doing some proper research yourself. Sure, if you are in a place where electricity is extremely expensive, it won't pay you cause you will be paying so much for electricity fee, but in a place with a very good electricity rate, you can still make a lot of profit if you have a good setup. S9 and D3 are quite efficient and does not take too much power, so that can make mining profitable for you.

Going to the cloud for mining is far worse than mining yourself. I see that as a lazy approach to learning and doing research. If you can do a proper research, and get the right gadget, you can mine and get your ROI pretty fast than when you go the cloud way.
