5041  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are you guys ok if BTC ends in the 10k USD range at the end of 2019? on: October 01, 2019, 07:37:52 PM
Ready or not, like or not, we need to accept the reality, and if bitcoin price ends in $10k at the end of 2019, then I will receive, and I will not have a problem. I am happy to see the price can back to $10k and stable in that range because that means, I can sell some bitcoin to get a nice amount of money. But it seems, it is difficult to see that price because this time, bitcoin still going down again but we can hope that it will over soon, and the price can start to moves and reach $9k and even $10k.
Bitcoin price ending at $10K this year is not bad at all considering its price at the beginning of this year which was around $3K+ with the price revolving and ranging around $8K+ now shows and indicates a tremendous growth in the price of bitcoin this year, I believed the price stabilizes and pumps to $10K before the end of the year, Hodlers and buyers who bought at the beginning of year would make some profits now.
5042  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Libra Coin bring Down Bitcoin's dominance on: October 01, 2019, 05:56:12 PM
I am not completely satisfied with this kind of thinking. It is obvious that Libra will be in the top 10, but it is incapable of facing BTC. BTC is the owner of this market and a stable coin can not replace it. And if so, I am gonna leave this market as it is, and I will not come back.
Facebook as social media will used that medium to hype Libra of course making it to be well recognized in the league of cryptocurrencies and popular as you rightly posted which is obvious to be top 10, however for Libra to dominate bitcoin is mission that won't see the light of the day, daily market capitalization and volume of bitcoin trade daily amount to billions of dollars which makes it a strong crypto that can't easily be displaced by the emergence of Libra
5043  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto volatile again, Whats stopping you from trying Options Trading? on: October 01, 2019, 04:03:22 PM
Option trading works better using a higher time frame at least using a daily time frame as a reference point just as the OP analyzed while capitalizing on the market volatile of crypos in recent times especially ethereum that fell deeply in the last couple of days however to have an edge over the market an option trader must have deep and sound understanding of Technical analysis else trading without that knowledge and skill amount to trading option like a gambler.
More so a sound money management is the key to being profitable in the long run based on brokers with a higher percentage pay out or returns just like sparrow.
5044  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Blockchain Bring change into Africa? on: October 01, 2019, 02:14:30 PM
With the high levels of corruption in most African countries, I believe that the blockchain technology would be the very thing that this continent needs. It will undoubtedly make everything transparent so that every person would be able to see exactly what's going on and thus prevent high levels of corruption and fraud by most of our so called leaders and politicians.
I quite agreed with you on how corruption had been entrenched in most African countries, its a  barrier or obstacle militating the growth of that continent many elections are rigged in favour of the incumbent leaders siphon government money into their private account but with blockchain technology if fully adopted and deployed  its transparency will enhance a credible election, corrupt-free society invariably enhance rapid development of the infrastructures in the continent, but the questions now are the leaders ready to adopt this technology?
5045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: stick to the same option or switch to another option? on: October 01, 2019, 01:20:43 PM
Is crypto included in the ponzi scheme to get rich quickly?
in most cases I have observed why people rush to get short profits, this is not a good way. I mean the decisions they make are not based on common sense.

This is not what you think, if you think that crypto can become rich overnight, you don't need to bother avoiding investment risks. You only need to focus on crypto investments that you think can make you rich.

but unfortunately the market says it's different, there is no way to get quick profits & all you have to do is how you can survive in this market. between a fixed choice with the same option or switch with another option.
I don't think it's the same as the ponzi scheme. Cryptocurrency is unpredictable, and getting quick profits is not an easy thing to do in cryptocurrency. There is no such thing as getting rich quickly, we must be smart in making decisions when there are opportunities to be able to benefit and of course with the hard work we do to be able to find opportunities that will be able to generate profits.

Some people believed that in 2017 when bitcoin attained ATH of $20K a lot of hodlers who invested in it years back became instant millionaires thus many newbies thinks that cryptocurrencies is a get rich quick scheme judging it with how btc pumped, however forgetting the fact it is unpredictable as you rightly said I will rather stick to making a short profit with a small risk thus take my profit and start all over again rather than taking a risk that is beyond my control.
5046  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is trading crypto independently considered a business? on: October 01, 2019, 12:23:35 PM
There are professional crypto traders who trade cryptos as a full job thus trading it independently as a business having resigned from their daily job they took to trading as a full time trader having acquired a lot of skills with a huge investment portfolio while risking maximum of 5% per trade invariably trading with a strategy which has a high risk to reward ratio while reasonable amount of profits is made monthly which the trader withdraws to pay bills, buy stuffs etc.
5047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the difference between binary option and gambling? on: October 01, 2019, 09:46:44 AM
Both requires analysis if you are into sports betting since you have to check the records of the team if its basketball, or the boxer or mma fighter, you don't just place your bet based on wild guess, you will loose your money. Same with Binary trading, also need to do your research if the price will indeed go Up or Down, its different from the usual trading where you can pick a coin and wait for a period of time and if you did not hit your target, you can still wait until you reach your goal. In Binary its different, you pick if it will increase or decrease on a period of time.

I think gambling is more difficult than binary. Gambling most times is not research based especially if it is not sports, thus success rate in gambling is luck. Binary is more of research taking and analysis.
I had been involved in both gambling and binary option from my own personal opinion both are more or less the same thrice I invested in binary my account was wiped through streaks of losses a binary trader can't have an edge due to low pay out while the brokers too manipulate the price to their advantage, at times gambling can profitable in there is some element of luck I am very sure and believed  gamblers are making profits d on daily basis that is why a lot of crypto based gambling sites are springing out daily compared to the numbers of binary traders.
5048  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: time to change BTC to ETH? on: September 30, 2019, 05:54:46 PM
Based on my Technical Analysis on a 4 hour time frame the price of ethereum has been showing a good sign of recovery the sentiment of the price is turning bullish a rallying point for buyers coupled with the fact that price repeat itself historically the bouncing back of eth is imminent I would rather buy now and hodl before it pumps to the next support based on it volatilty.
5049  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Be careful of Bitcoins giveaways that are too good to be true on: September 30, 2019, 04:59:34 PM
This forum has a zero tolerance for any HYIP related issues It was advisable to stay away from them giveaway of 2X bitcoin is a ploy towards scamming gullible investors believed me a lot of people will foolishly fall for this and later regret their actions because in a long run the scheme can never be sustained based on past experience, HYIP promoters are negatively tagged in this forum I implored you to find a better alternative investment to avoid touching stories at the end of the day.
5050  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Seven most imminent trends everyone should get ready for in 2020. on: September 30, 2019, 04:09:49 PM
Seven most imminent trends everyone should get ready for in 2020 by Bernard Marr. Blockchain technology too got its place secured among the list.

  • Artificial Intelligence as a Service
  • 5G Data Networks
  • Autonomous Driving
  • Personalized and Predictive Medicine
  • Computer Vision
  • Extended Reality
  • Blockchain Technology

What you all think of these with comparison to the blockchain technology. Each and everything mentioned were completely associated with the technology based development and someway each gets associated with the other by some means.

Source : The 7 Biggest Technology Trends In 2020 Everyone Must Get Ready For Now
AI and 5G are the most talked about at the moment while blockchain technology followed, 5G is more relevant because of the vast users of mobile phones while AI is taken over human jobs,  although blockchain adoption is growing at a slower pace compared to the other two of course its potentials if fully utilized can create a lot of opportunities while I see more adoptions and its user base, its a obviously  a good news that blockchain is counted among the trend an indication of its relevance to the society.
5051  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think 40% bonus is too much for early Investors? on: September 30, 2019, 02:19:48 PM
Yes, 40% for the early investors is a lot and I think that the maximum bonus for the early investors will be at 20% only. Giving too much bonus for the early investors or the investors in an ICO is a dangerous move because that means that you are giving the pioneer investors a chance to really mess up the price of your coin because they got more supplies and they can easily manipulate the market.
To avoid such problems, projects can simply freeze the coins of early investors. everything is very simple. investors get a profit - projects are insured against the dump
Its better not to give out such an outrageous bonus than to freeze those coins this act will discourage potential investors of new ICOs who might be discouraged and be very skeptical in investing in that project.
Wooing investors with such a huge bonus is inimical to the growth of such project thus its quite obvious that the early investor will be the major culprit who will hurriedly dump their coins so as to make some quick profit to the detriment of the overall road map of that project it baffles me when a dumped coin is blamed on bounty hunters who received a small percentage or proportion of the whole ICO.
5052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which betting type gives you the most payout? on: September 30, 2019, 01:59:37 PM

Sports betting is broader than most beginners think. It takes many forms. It’s not limited to placing your bet on who you think will win between two teams or players in a match. Sometimes, it gets challenging when odds or point spreads get in the way.

There are various bet types you can choose from when placing wagers on sporting events. But which of these earn you the most money?

  • Straight bet
  • Money line bet
  • Total line bet
  • Parlay bet
  • Head-to-head bet

If you do not know these betting types much, here's an article to help you understand them better: https://www.bitcoinsportsbetting.co.uk/news/most-common-types-of-sports-bets/
My preference sport betting strategy is Total line, I can easily predict OVER or UNDER scorelines of both teams judging by their attacking forces and previous matches played e.g teams like Liverpool and Manchester City in EPL has  potent attackers with the likes of Mane, ferminho and sallah for Liverpool while Man city has Aguero, and Gabriel Jesus these clubs will print green for OVER  total score any day in most of their previous matches played this season they scored a lot of goals while I believed their form will be sustained throughout the season thus OVER total score is guaranteed in their subsequent matches.
5053  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible to double capital in 2 months? on: September 30, 2019, 01:37:42 PM
I achieved to double capital within some hours. It is about volatility and your leverage.
If you're ready to accept risks, then you can easily to double and triple your investment.
But if you want to grow your capital steadily without taking high risks, then you need more time
Embarking on such a trading feat amount to taking a big risk which can cause an emotion balance of course you might be luck to achieve such a feat by doubling your capital but the OP this time is trading with fear and emotions which of cause can incur more losses and getting his capital burnt again.
I will only agree if he decides to trade with a small amount of capital perhaps compounding his trades having a good trading strategy which is freely available online  with a sound money management with time he would be able to settles some the debts.
5054  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: i failed in day trading on: September 29, 2019, 08:38:06 PM
I always lost in trading. It was both fast and for a maximum of a week. As soon as I did not try to trade, anyway I got into a protracted transaction at least a month. And experience has nothing to do with it. It’s just tantamount to playing dice.
I had burnt my account twice while day trading because the market moves faster even with the knowledge of TA it amount to losing my portfolio however after switching to a minimum of 4 hour time frame I was able to make some progress, having much time to study, analyze and accurately predict price movement while the price move at a slower pace although some losses are incurred however overall I was profitable.
5055  Economy / Economics / Re: Crimes involving crypto have risen on: September 29, 2019, 08:31:03 PM
Haven't heard major crime stories related to Crypto recently. The whole world's government is tightening the grip on the use case of crypto currencies. So countries have banned it and have started taking action against their citizens who happen to use it for any purpose whatsoever.
even in my country there are no restrictions on the use of crypto and i don't know the news. indeed, there have been no crimes involving crypto recently, but at least every time a crime occurs the news will involve a crime with crypto which of course is a serious problem because it will adversely affect the crypto market itself
Of course many terrorists,money launderers and kidnappers have started using cryptos to perpetuate their dastardly act it obvious that some government had to take a drastic action to checkmate and prevent the use of cryptos while its becoming very difficult to track cryptos transaction these days some culprits had turned to it as a safe heaven and safer way in earning invariably resulted to the increase in the number of crypto related crimes of course more tightening measures had to be put in place else the world would not be a safe place.
5056  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We need regulation pretty bad on: September 29, 2019, 08:11:00 PM
Apart from scam artists in crypto space we have too many unprofessional developers that falsely act like they are really good in a particular field and try to build blockchain based projects but failed in the end,if there is really any way to make blockchain available to only professionals that are qualified it would have been a different story for crypto,even scammers wont have a chance,this is why i think we need REGULATIONS pretty bad.
I am an ardent supporter of regulation its obvious that the crypto space had been crowded with scams no one can hardly pinpoint a scam-free blockchain projects these days had it been every every new ICO entrant was regulated thus confidence will be reposed and sanity will be brought into the system however the issue of anonymity will have come into play invariably discouraging some investors due to KYC and identity related issues.
As far as transacting cryptos without a third party and anonymously the issue of regulating it might not see the light at the end of the day.
5057  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manchester United VS Arsenal, Focus game of EPL Round 7 on: September 29, 2019, 06:18:06 PM
The two teams who were great rivals battling for the title will face off once again for a top 4 spot this season  Grin

Six games into the season and both teams hasn't found their footing yet. Looking at the current results, the gunners seems to have the better offense. The scoreline might end up like this Arsenal 3 - ManU 1
Of course, Man Utd is not in a good season, their last match end up in a draw even against a small team. a lot of people say that a lot of Man utd players are rubbish, lol and so do little kids said. so I don't think there's a chance for Man utd to win. but because of this big match of course this match is still interesting to watch.

Manchester United still has a chance to win, so does Arsenal. So the two won't fight to win, I'm sure Manchester United are still able to rise from this downturn. But, I agree that we must watch this match because it is very interesting and you should not forget to bet there.
Both team had been a shadow of former self this season the match could end in a draw, Man Utd had been struggling since the beginning of season even struggling with minnows EPL teams while Arsenal had not really show any form of a title challenger with fragile defence line unlike Liverpool and Man City who had really proved their worth in their recent games.
For tomorrow game wouldn't spring any surprise both team lackluster and uninspiring performance in last games is a pointer to the fact that we shouldn't expect an entertaining and aggressive games is usually synonymous to the two sides when they play their game.
5058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Talk about the opportunities we missed in those years? on: September 15, 2019, 10:55:37 PM
Life itself is all about taking opportunities that comes our ways every crypto enthusiast always envisaged more profits by taking a risk and not selling at the most appropriate period thus at the end losing a vast amount of profits I believed this could be as a result of lacking in knowledge of reading chart ie technical analysis which can guide a hodler of a particular coin the appropriate time to sell. without it a lot of opportunities will be missed by any trader or hodler.

I chanced on this site https://smart-games.io
It appears to offer the same service, a Tron gambling site. I do not know if it is the alternative for TRONbet but it is currently working perfectly. I tried it and it looks great.
Yea this gambling site is also awesome and features gambling directly with a gambler directly linking up with a TRON wallet while payment is instant and swift meanwhile your TRON can be exchange to btc or eth at any reputable exchange I had also tried their service its very easy to play with as far as gambling is concerned.
