501  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin used by criminals ? on: March 26, 2018, 02:03:30 PM
No one can deny the benefits that Bitcoin offers to humans. Having Bitcoin on the market makes it possible for people to pay instantly, easily, simply and inexpensively around the world in the most economical way without spending a lot of time. But one thing Bitcoin is annoying about is that bitcoin deals do not force people to use their real names, so it's a good opportunity for criminals to use the payment method for their bills ... If managers can take a step further to manage Bitcoin users, then nothing is happier for the human race.
That is true,  because we are anonymous in making transactions, no one are able to track down who is performing such transaction and if where is that transaction for.  This could be the safest way for criminals to such illegal acts because what they do can be hidden from  the authorities.  

If I am not wrong,  there are documentaries about bitcoin being used in criminal activity and that there is a site where it can be used as payment. They describe the site as a good nest for all the bad things that you want to do.  
502  Economy / Economics / Re: Can we totally eliminate all the banks in this world? on: March 26, 2018, 11:40:45 AM
in the future it is possible. but now it is impossible. we need their infrastructure systems. for this reason it is not appropriate to raise them. this is the fear of the banks already. they know that a system is no longer needed for them.
That is true,  banks are still much needed today.  Many people still don't know bitcoin and I don't know if they will also embrace the change of holding  investments even after learning about cryptos.  It will not be easy to eliminate banks because our government also need them. I think this is the reason why the government in our country are trying to study and analyze bitcoin.  Even our central bank is also peeking into bitcoin,  they might  be trying to find a way to eliminate or lessen the threats in the use of banks. 

Anyways,  implementing bitcoin nationwide is not gonna be easy because not all people are interested in developments especially when it comes to financial system.  Between bitcoin banking and the current banking system, some people will choose the latter because they are used to it.
503  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: In this down market how your doing? on: March 26, 2018, 10:37:07 AM
Market is in deep and i am buying and holding now. Because bitcoin and most of altcoins will go up. And in that point we can take large profit. By today bitcoin is starting to rise the value. If you are willing to buy. This will be the great time to do that
Not only you, but majority of the bitcoin lovers and investors are at present patiently holding their coins because the dip is about to end within few days rather bitcoin has started showing signs of awesome future right now. There are maximum chances for bitcoin to break last year records by the end of 2018. It will surely go near 30,000 dollars in the last quarter of the year. This is the only chance when we can buy it at low.
That is true,  as long as we remain patient there will be no problem.  If we let the dump affects us,  we will only be pressured and stressed.  Earning and investing cryptos put us in a lot of pressure because of the risk that the volatile market has.  It is normal to get sad if we see our portfolio in a bad state but just like what @bearexin said,  the price will increase so we just have to be patient. 

In the meantime,  we shall enjoy the dip by investing and buying coins that we think has the potential to grow.
504  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does becoming a parent changes the gambler? on: March 25, 2018, 11:30:11 PM
Yes, being parent has big responsibilities. In the fact that you need feed your children and your husband/wife which mean that all your money is for securing your family.

If gambler did not chance I think nothing will happen to their family, because they have no enough time for family and did not monitor the situation inside the house.

Even gambling is easy way to earn money but it is coming from illegal and use to support your famkly, I think it's not a good images of parents.

505  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why some country banned bitcoin? on: March 25, 2018, 09:16:52 PM
why some country banned bitcoin?
is there any problem? i know that bitcoin is international crypto currency. but why some country banned this cryto?

In my opinion the reason why some countries banned the bitcoin is because this is used in illegal transaction that we can not deny. If they think that cryptocurrency is not helpful to their country instead a problem, why not to ban. Additionally, it affects the economy of other country that produce bunch of dollar or other currency, instead of their legalize money they prepare to use the bitcoin because of profit they get. And it you observed bitcoin can be primary source of income, it all people grab the bitcoin the employee will not work and the result is no production.
506  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach 20,000 again on: March 24, 2018, 10:51:23 PM
Simply because the WHALES take the profits whenever there's a 5 to 10 percent growth.  The bottom line is Swing trading and Day trading is real and the HODL method is just what it is...

it is very hard to predict what will be the result of the price of bitcoin now.we all know that bitcoin can reach that price if we have a patience in life,we have to wait for the go signal and i know that this coming few days the price of bitcoin will be 20,000 again.

Any price can be good but it look like this has been seen already in past we saw something similar in 2013-2014 and we waited for 3 years for price to recover to above 1000 and we saw how much that was last year. So it will some to this 20k but maybe in 3 years or less dont think it will take longer this time for price to reach this goal.
True, even the price reach $20k last november they have big possibilty to reach again or pass that price because bitcoin is still popular in the market. Not now, but for sure next year, one reason why bitcoin reach again that price is the legalization of bitcoin in some countries, they studying how it works in the market. For me this time is a good opportunity to buy instead of losing interest in bitcoin.
507  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not invest in bitcoin if you don't know anything about it on: March 24, 2018, 07:26:11 PM
I agree with my whole heart. I keep hearing from people that they wanna invest in bitcoin just to make money. They don't know single thing about cryptocurrencies yet they wanna invest and make profits. Its not cool thing.

People are more interested in making money nowadays and they do really think that bitcoin will give them an easy passageway for that.  Some people think that they could earn money already just by joining this forum.  They are not interested in what cryptos are,  they just want to know how to earn. It is sad but this is the truth.  People wants to earn money but I am afraid that they don't want to exert effort in order to earn. 
508  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why almost everybody suggest to hold? on: March 24, 2018, 09:17:42 AM
Everybody suggest to hold your coins to avoid such a big loss . they are aware that when the market is down . all you have to do is to wait and hold your coins until it increases again

Additionally, this is because to control your emotion like greediness when the price is pumping and patient when time of dumping. There is right time for the right price, but sometimes we encounter unexpected happenings that cause of selling our token even the price is low. I can suggest that make another source of income to hold the bitcoin and sell when price is high.
509  Economy / Economics / Re: Positive thinking brings positive things. on: March 24, 2018, 05:46:22 AM
With positive thinking, then you are more confident and not to try to be someone else. If you are not confident you will never get a better life. so with bitcoin, you have to think positive that bitcoin will rise again from the current slump.

True, positive thinking gives a great confidence in the world of crypto. Because this now we encounter dumping of bitcoin and altcoin which we need to earn profit but now I think losing is result (if you sell or buy). But with positive thinking that it will rise and pass the highest price it will make a decision to hold or save our coin to earn bunch of money in the future.
510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can you save money while playing gambling games? on: March 21, 2018, 11:09:46 PM
Even how many best tips you'll gather here, the result varies on your reaction. You only need discipline if you want to save money while gambling but there's a distraction and your main goal of saving money is hard. You need to sacrifice any of them, if you want to gamble, you can't save properly or if you want to save then you have to sacrifice gambling.

It's either OP save or gamble right?

Honestly, if you want to save, you should not gamble, gambling would just pull your savings especially if you are an addicted gambler and you just came up to an idea to save.

Or, you can gamble, but your savings should be away from your "easy access" drawer or wallet.
I really think that putting away the amount of money allotted for savings is the most effective way for a person to be able to saved money. Setting aside first the savings before budgeting and buying anything else will ensure that you will have savings but playing gambling can affect this. Imagine this, you are gambling and the amount you allotted for it was all used up and you still want to play. @diegz is right that it will be a distraction to you since it will make you to get some from the saved money and when some people started doing it, it is possible that they will do the same thing again.

It will be the best to quit on gambling if you truly want to save money and just do gambling again after saving up so many money and after you have fulfil all your goals in life.
511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will every crypto coin survive? on: March 21, 2018, 10:09:07 PM
You only have to look at the bottom half (way more than half really) of coins listed on coinmarketcap and see the volume traded to realise that there is no real market/demand for the majority of projects. 95% is a figure plucked out of the air, as is any other figure, but the fact remains that 'most' projects will fail in the long term. However, that doesn't mean that you can't make money on them in the meantime, just be realistic about the long term prospects. There's a reason why the standard portfolio recommendation consists of 60% of top 20 coins. The rest are a gamble, potential high reward, but you are throwing dice.
We talked about hodling cryptos and waiting for the right time to sell it because the price rises up again. This only happens for most of the top coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum and etc. All cryptos have a volatile market but not all are able to survive the market competition. Tokens can have a high price once they are distributed but once they go on dumped, they stay at that position. We know that there are lots of tokens available in the market but not all have the potential to increase again.
512  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you a full time trader or just part timer? on: March 21, 2018, 09:02:03 PM
i work for 9 hours perday, after work, i come home and get online to get some knowledge about the coins i care, and do research on coins and choose the time to buy them, i am just a part timer

Same with me. I'm just a part time trader. Being a full time trader is really difficult specially when you have job in real life. Being a part timer trader is also good, you can just buy for some hours and sell it when you already have profits. That is the advantage of part time, you can't put all your time in trading in whole day.
You can be a full-time trader as well but for that you need to quit your job as trading itself demand lot of time and efforts which you cannot give until and unless you are having enough of the time to do so.

However, doing part time trading while having some full time permanent job is the best thing to do as it helps you in having an extra income as well as helps you in learning more things related to trading.
There are poeple who have decided to leave their regular jobs and go full time on trading cryptos. It is a bold and brave move because of the big risk that, that trader is going to face. It is not guaranteed that he will be earning big that will make such big sacrifice worth it but of course he can try. It is very risky but some are willing to take yet some will try to be as wise as they can and will choose to have both trading and regular job as their source of income. It is not just about the assurance that you will have source of income but it is having assurance that if ever cryptos suffer a very big challenge, you will still have something left in you. Cryptos are not a stable source income, it may give big earnings but a single withdraw from a big investor can cause the price to go on a dump for a long time.
513  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is better Trade or Invest? on: March 21, 2018, 02:36:38 PM
It's not a matter of profit or loss, here it is better to trade or invest, obviously the two are very different, better describe where to smoke with tobacco and electronic smoking, in terms of short-term profits obviously trading more profitable, but if long-term? Investing is more profitable

I think it is about luck too. Investment like trading can go wrong very fast. I had a feeling that investing is more secure, but sometimes it is the same as trading.
having sad that i prefer to do both, to split the risk.
We can always do both trading and investing at the same time. Trading and investing both give good amount of profit but in some situations, people can only do trading. Not all people always have money on their hands; there are some who can only do something to be able to survive a day. In other words, not all people have the money for investment that is why there are more traders than investors. However, sometimes, long-time traders have managed to save big enough money that they can use for trading. Both trading and investing are worth the risk especially when it comes to bitcoin who has the most potential of ability to grow back to its high price and even exceed that amount.
514  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like airdrops? on: March 21, 2018, 01:41:51 PM
Hello guys!  Wink

Today I wanted to ask you, what do you think about airdrops?

As for me, I work in the KickCity project and recently we launched airdrop. I do really like the result! We have a lot of newcomers and new people who are interested in the company. If you want to join you can ask the team in the community https://t.me/kickcity_chat (the airdrop is closed by now)

SO  Shocked

Are you taking part in airdrops? Do you like the result? What is the feedback?
Or maybe you are working in a project launching airdrop?

There are some airdrops that I really love since it gives me a lot of free token that you can trade to make it fiat but only few is just like this . So I am not interested with different airdrop and some of them is just a waste in your wallet because you will never trade it because of its very low price
There are airdrop tokens that can be profitable but for me, airdrops could just be a waste of time. If you are going to noticed, most of the tokens that come from airdrops are not listed on exchanges therefore making it impossible for trading. Many of my friends who are also making money from cryptos are still participating in airdrops, as for me I have stopped long time ago. I realized that it is much beneficial if I will use my time in reading more about cryptos and participating in different bounty campaigns. I am not saying that all airdrop tokens are not worth any time, it is just that I am annoyed that there are many tokens in my MEW account, which are not useful.
515  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Leave full time office job to trade crypto? on: March 20, 2018, 09:55:00 PM
Good option if you have saved enough for the future. But, if you don't have much savings, then please re consider your option. Nothing can beat a stable source of income. Re consider your choices. This market is very volatile.

Even you have save money for the future, the full time job is beneficial than cryptocurrency this is because in time you need a money you can't easily get in crypto because of volatile price. In the first place the real job is your skills that you spend too much time in the school.

The good things in cryptocurrency is the profit you can get even you have a real job, in other word if you have real job and work in cryptocurrency you can easily become rich.
516  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin will have a price of $50000 on: March 20, 2018, 08:57:40 PM
Based on the news, bitcoin might hit $50000 by the end of 2018. Is this possible? If so, what are the reasons?

Maybe yes, if bitcoin become legalize around the world it has a big chances to hit $50000 or higher than this is because most of the people want to earn money using bitcoin. In the fact that bitcoin is very beneficial to the user because in just a moment you can catch a big fish.

Now the price we expect is too far from what we expected but there are many things that will still happen. Investing in bitcoin is persuading because of the volatility of the price.
517  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading don't work for me too well on: March 20, 2018, 10:07:25 AM
After you make a technical analysis and if its wrong check where you were wrong and learn from your mistakes. If you cannot afford to lose more money maybe consider quitting man.
Quitting is never an option, you just have to be careful from the future, never repeat the same mistake and keep your self in the market for different gossips and rumours. Try to take good advises from those who have committed the mistakes and be watchful on them.

Never think of yourself some superman and do the reading of the market like a common man with proper time being given to the market as well as trading. Don’t skip a day so that you wont miss the chance to earn.
Personally, I think it would be best if newbie traders to have someone whom they can ask about trading. I have been in their position before, when I know nothing about trading but I have an advantage because I have my friends who are willing to answer my questions about cryptos. They also share their own experiences, failures and mistakes, which somehow had been a lesson for me. It is not easy to go roaming around the forum (even if it is advisable) because there are things that we can't just easily understand after reading, things that only experience will only teach us.

There are many crypto groups in social media; I think that it won't hurt if you will try to find someone who can be your crypto guru or crypto buddy. Some are willing to share their experiences anyway, just make sure that you will give full attention when they start talking and try not to make them feel like they are wasting time.
518  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: March 20, 2018, 08:47:57 AM
I feel like it does have an impact to the person gambling and it lightens up their mood so it gives them positive aura when they are playing however it does make a person feel lucky too. But I feel like it is all pure luck when you are on the game, so the positive thinking is just basically on your mind too.

I agree and I think it is also a good thing because if that gambler has positive mind setting, then he/she will be less stress in his/her gambling sessions. Although it will really not affect the outcome of the game when it is based on pure luck; but I think coupled with good skills, it would affect in games that requires not just luck but skill as well like poker and sportsbetting.

Definitely we have strong thinking or feeling about our game, and mostly our positive mind setting helpful for our winning and we are able to achieve our goal. But problem is when we achieved our winning in gambling then once again we start to do bet, and in this wise, our greedy thinking or feeling overcome on our positive thinking. In the end, we have lost, so when we have achieved our goal behalf of our positive or strong thinking, then better to leave the game and don't go with our greedy thinking.
True, sometimes positive thinking isn't helping at all. It is helpful because it gives us confidence but there are certain situations that being too confident won't help at all. Just like when we are gambling, it is okay to be confident because it will inspire you to play good and will be helpful in accepting loss. As I said, it gives confidence so it will make you feel like "everything happens for a reason" and will make you think, "The next game will be better". All people runs out of luck (also, there are people who  don't have luck at all) so never keep in mind that by playing and never giving up, you will be able to score big especially in gambling.
519  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price is recovering! on: March 20, 2018, 07:04:50 AM
Everyone is shock with this price drop from $19,850 in mid-December to about 6,000 to 7,000 recently but then it is now recovering.

I suggest to visit this website for the latest update about BITCOIN.

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/bitcoin-price-live-updates-latest-exchange-rate-south-korea-trading-ban-us-dollar-china-value-usd-a8196621.html
but if in my opinion it has not recovered.
because now wrote still $ 8600 gan not yet $ 9000 yesterday December aja reach $ 17000. gan. means the bitcon is still experiencing a dramatic decline .

Its not recover yet but at least we have the sign that bitcoin will recover soon.
As we know the price of cryptocurrency very deep and now when i answer this, the price jump higher. Its more than enough to start recovering.

Yeah it is just starting to recover and I am hoping that somehow it will reach a high price again. The market had been read for so long that some of us who needs money have been keeping ourselves from selling at low price. When there is a dump, it is just normal for us to worry about our investments but we must not be affected by it big time. It is not easy to be a trader and much harder to become a long time holder. Seeing your money losing profit day by day is stressful but this is the risk that we all signed up for when we decided to earn cryptos.

The price is starting to recover now but still it is possible to go down again.
520  Economy / Speculation / Re: how to predict bitcoin price increase or decrease? on: March 19, 2018, 10:18:05 PM
Even graph analysts could not perfectly predict bitcoin's price in the future. That is all because no one can control bitcoin's price since it is the demand of the people that defines bitcoin's market value.
The graph analysis will never be anything, this is because the pure bitcoin decentralization and marketcap is still very small, let alone the pros and cons of bitcoin usage, if there is one country banned bitcoin it will cause panic in the country so they will sell bitcoin.
True and we don't know if there is another country who will ban bitcoin and crypto transactions. No one knows what will happen in bitcoin that will cause its price to decrease or to increase, we can only stay tuned and be updated of news about bitcoin which will help us in deciding whether to still keep bitcoin and other investments on our wallets or is time to sell just to make sure that we won't be walking away with empty hand. The market value will be based on the demand and supply of bitcoin, what we can do is to hope that there will be more investors aside from us.
