5181  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: April 10, 2017, 07:54:22 AM
Bitcoin is only digital currency right now and I don't see any competition to it at a moment but things may change in future when it may get replaced some new and innovative currency and till it happens enjoy the ride with bitcoins as it will never disappear.
It has competition from many government and security agencies i just hope bitcoin get's equally distributed around the world so that the bitcoin controller china can stop manipulating the price of bitcoin.
Right guys , but here in the online market of the altcoins and coins the bitcoin has really a big competition .
The reason is that the people are going toward the dash , ETH , monero etc like big altcoins Because they are going increasing rapidly in the price value and price . And also the speed of confirmation in the dash is much more fast then in the bitcoin , so here in my opinion the bitcoin needed a big improvement in his network to make more powerful and better to confirm his transactions speedly , so that no one coins or altcoin can jump over the bitcoin .
Please don't talk about dash it was obvious the pump was made and now the currency is badly dumped by the huge investors.
Plus if you see the market cap also of dash reduce and now ripple is on third. I think eth can be the best asa it recently good
a featured on mainstream media
Yeah, the pump is temporary and have high chance of being made by those whales who keeps their money in form of dash and taking advantage of the pump to move out their wealth. That's what happen when things get an instant pump, it will eventually falling down and touch its very deep point of price, can't expect more.

Bitcoin has been steadily losing market cap dominance, from 90%+ just two years ago to ~80% today.

When it comes to exchange dominance it's just 66.4%.

This trend will probably continue and in a few years there will be people using cryptocurrencies that do not know what bitcoin is.
No chance.Altcoins are just pump and dump coins.Only Bitcoin deserves to be the king of cryptocoins.All altcoins were in need of bitcoins even to show their price value.
Even crypto currency coins also need bitcoin in order for them to have a value. As we can see, all pairs are against bitcoin which stands like a dollar in foreign currency. So like dollar, if U.S. economy's break down, all of countries are affected since it is a majore curency.
But somehow when the price of bitcoin is falling down, those altcoins get pumped so hard that sometimes the value towards bitcoin was changed but the value of the dollar still remain the same. Probably people are moving their money out of the bitcoin in order to save their wealth, that just makes sense, but, it's mean that bitcoin actually can't affect all those crypto coins as a whole when it comes to price fluctuation.
I figured out that majority of people are still considering so hard their altcoins value towards real currency which is Dollar.

look at the features of the bitcoin then I am sure that bitcoin is the best at this time.
many things we can do, perform many financial transactions with just a few steps. while the Bank still has some limitations.
To be fair, besides of all those limitations given by the banks, the features they were provided since centuries ago could please their client whereas bitcoin, in my opinion, could only please the minority of them.
Overall, with the bank, you can still perform many financial transactions as much as what bitcoin can do with ease regardless of its limitations, it's at the same time also means that bank actually still above bitcoin based on comparison about its feature regarding financial transactions.
Probably y'all already looked down on bank without even making a fair comparison, thus, blinded by your idealism, though, it's right to defend your idealism as long as it's for the sake of good purpose.
5185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: April 08, 2017, 10:59:58 AM
I think it depends on the user, if they are loyal certainly will have no effect, this time my country also banned bitcoin so I used the exchanger from abroad to buy and sell bitcoin.
Loyalty will eventually fade when the mass banning against bitcoin also carry the regulations which may heavily burden the users or even could drive the bitcoin users into the real prison. Well, if bitcoin is going to be banned by my country, as long as there's no such strict rules against it, I can still improve and secretly using it.
5186  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin be used to support terrorists? on: April 07, 2017, 10:15:30 AM
Bitcoin is not good or bad it depends in the users who uses it for good or evil.
Dont blame an innocent virtual currency to the cruelty of human beings
Many people will take advantage of bitcoin's decentralized and anonymous feature but bitcoin can be freely use by anyone even if you're good or bad.
Exactly, I have many friends who react bad when they hear "bitcoin", they say its a currency for thieves and criminals, what is total bullshit.

It is like saying that mexican peso is a currency for drug cartels and murderers.
Guess what it is just being used by cartels: and the same thing applies to bitcoin: it may be used for illegal activities however you can use it for buying any product, even a car!

If I would be a terrorist, and I would want to use cryptocurrency as a payment method, my choose would be rather Monero than Bitcoin, it is better for people who want to stay 100% anonymous all the time.
That's a stereotype based on what media said and people near you seem to have been brainwashed by the media easily. You have to choice to whether get the stereotype right by persuading them to learn what is bitcoin which would take so much effort and not easy of course or just ignore them like when you're ignoring bacteria around you.
5187  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will happen when 1 satoshi is $ 1? on: April 06, 2017, 07:57:46 AM
Well of course we will become billionaire, I will enjoy the rest of my life lol, although 1satoshi=$1 likely impossible going to happen if we look at coin supply
There's no guarantee that you'll be keeping your whole bitcoin and save it in the future, and, one more important thing if the transaction fee still stay the same which is average 0.0001 - 0.0005 even if the rate of bitcoin is that high, it'll surely will kill the existence of bitcoin itself by the time due to too costly fee per transaction
5188  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin prices go to the moon? on: April 04, 2017, 08:57:56 AM
Can anyone tell me what is the exact definition of going to the moon? Is it $10k or $100k and so on? As everyone will be expecting different price level and no one knows what will be the highest price of bitcoin in future.

I think there is no exact amount to define the term going to the moon.  It is simply an expression that tells all the hopes of a person on the coin.  From my point of view, going to the moons means, increase in price, increase in adoption.  A success in relation to price increase.
That's right, it's a mere expression for the increase of bitcoin's price, people often say that bitcoin is going to the moon when the price is pumped hard, but, never arrived on the moon, LOL.
So, the definition is relative.
5189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Japan to accept Bitcoin as payment method. on: April 04, 2017, 08:41:51 AM
this is the first step for Ripple coin to be accepted in Japan. They aim to adopt ripple, not Bitcoin. But it is a good sight for cryptocurrency in general. After 47 banks agree to use ripple, we are looking forward to seeing more new things happen to this awesome coin
Well, japan is actually adopting ripple's blockchain tech according to some news that I've read means they're only interested in ripple's blockchain system, don't really know about the rest. But, why japan choose to adopt ripple's blockchain instead of bitcoin? they might have seen the disadvantages of bitcoin's blockchain I suppose, it's at the same time means that bitcoin is no better than ripple even though it's the most popular cryptocurrency as for now? any opinion?
5190  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where is everyone? on: April 03, 2017, 11:42:15 AM
That's why I'm consider that trading altcoin far more riskier compare bitcoin since altcoin provide low value and volatile
Even if there's a rumor that some altcoin may increase it's value, you should sell it as fast as possible
Rumour is rumour and there's no strong reason of believing it but you can just do some further analyzation instead, just wonder why people keep on believing other people's mouth whereas they have secret agenda behind their very movement. Just wake up guys, there's no immortal pumping, everything will have its point of time to be either pumped hard or dumped hard, but honestly, would prefer holding altcoin for short term, just my 2 cents LOL
5191  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are bitcoins more secure then Swiss bank? on: April 02, 2017, 08:17:04 AM
bitcoins and swiss bank are two different things . if you dont want to loose your cash then swiss bank is the best ,well if you want to get value in your investment then bitcoin is the best way to invest in it .
But, still both of things can be compared to each other based on its safety from many or various perspective, so, it's still comparable even though both bitcoin and bank is really a different thing whereas bitcoin is a currency and bank is the place where people often save their currencies.
5192  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Buying clothes with bitcoins? on: March 30, 2017, 10:17:30 AM
I will never waste my hard earned bitcoins in buying clothes and instead I will prefer to buy it with fiat money and will prefer to save my bitcoins for future as bitcoins will be more valuable in future holding some unexpected price so it would be good to spend at that time.
Buying clothes with bitcoin is not kind of waste, it's the normal use of bitcoin as a currency instead. Yeah probably you consider to buy bitcoin with fiat over bitcoin for the sake of investment but sometimes people are in need of money when their money is still in form of bitcoin, therefore, they will buy the clothes directly with bitcoin. Keep in mind that clothing is also the primary needs in everyone's life.
5193  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Opportunity is here?? on: March 30, 2017, 10:02:35 AM
Bitcoin is both good for short and long term investment, you can choose what you much prefer. We can earn profits in a short time because of the price volatility
I believe this is not right time for targeting short-term profits unless you are an active and professional trader. Still short-term like 3 to 6 month may work for gaining profits, but aiming for long term profits will always the opportunity anyone could get.

yeah it may not so big but for others it is already enough and it is good also to hold your BTC for long time like you invested last year and see the results now, you really made a very big amount of money.
So far as per the statistics, only long-term holder for making huge profits with bitcoin investment and short-term traders sometimes facing losses too.
Couldn't agree more, most of the short-term traders are emotionally getting affected by the current price changing, news, and so on whereas the long term traders are just leaving their bitcoin inside their wallet for a long time and get back when they conclude that the current price is most suitable for selling.
My opinion, honestly, I would prefer altcoins for short term and bitcoin for the long term. Bitcoin is really hard to be predicted but altcoin is pretty much the opposite.
5194  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Easiest way to convert money into BTC? on: March 30, 2017, 09:39:41 AM
Actually people from third world country don't have opportunity to buy bitcoin easily from any of the bitcoin trading platform like coinbase. Coinbase still don't support many developing countries also in localbitcoins usually deals for this countries are really expensive to buy from using local bank transfer.

However in european countries and china anyone can buy bitcoin or sell it quickly for profit or just buy and hold for long term with peace in mind. This have created a sense of "bitcoin is actually only made for developed countries, Tier-1 countries".  Angry

Have you tried other online methods? I've used Reddit to buy bitcoins directly at 90% price, which is better than anything that I can find for Paypal on localbitcoin or coinbase. You can also buy an Amazon giftcard from a third party source with bitcoin and sell that for bitcoin.
The local communities themselves actually could just make some services to simplify the way of their locals buying and selling bitcoin. But, if there's none until now, why don't you take this opportunity? you can get pretty decent profit from the fees itself and you may have potential of building your own bitcoin company, just my 2 cents but, it could also solve the problem which is currently make bitcoiners in your country struggling.
5195  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Japan to accept Bitcoin as payment method. on: March 30, 2017, 09:35:52 AM
Why expecting people to pay through using bitcoin in Olympic tho, I think that those who have known and really want to take an opportunity to pay services in japan using bitcoin are kinda extreme supporters, the rest of bitcoin users are using bitcoin as usual as it eventually be needed.
The acceptance towards bitcoin in japan is indeed a good thing but it's, I suppose, to open the gate of earning uncovered taxes which is running off through bitcoin.
5196  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BIT.AC :: MULTICURRENCY WALLET :: BUILT-IN INSTANT EXCHANGE :: Affiliate Program on: March 28, 2017, 04:17:19 AM
[BIT.AC Announcement]


We would like to introduce our brand new Android wallet! More stable & user friendly. Check it out at Google Play Market.

Glad to see you make an update for the android wallet,  just installed it on my phone and registered a new account. Surprisingly,  it is not stable as you said.  I cant login to my new account,  only login in less than 2 seconds then logged out automatically all the time.  Anyway have you tried it before releasing the new updates?
Just FYI,  my phone is an old samsung 6inches phone with 4.4.4 android version.
I hope this one there will be no problem anymore, thanks for considering our suggestions Bit.AC and that was a very timely action taken by your company. And dustboy mate, maybe there is some problem with your phone, I'm sure they have fully tested it before they release and this is a better version according to them.

Edit : I tried it now and it works smooth, good job Bit.AC.
Just tried it with both of my phones which are 6.0 and 5.0 version and everything is fine. Haven't noticed further bugs which I could assume that the app is now already improved and fixed many bugs which has been suggested by the community.
If I recall that there are major updates between 4.4.4 to 5.0 for android, using different algorithm I suppose, so, it's kinda a usual thing that something abnormal may occur to the older version of android if the developers were testing with newest version.
5197  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC price fall.Where will it stop? on: March 28, 2017, 04:09:34 AM
Bitcoin price fall has already stopped, it is rising now again and will get higher for this coming days. BTC is capable of surviving whatever the issues come in. Let's just wait more time to reach another ATH, nothing is impossible. I beleive that there are groups that control the price but we need to just go on the flow.
It's have been proved by bitcoin, the price falls which occur few weeks ago and repeatedly is a clue that this time bitcoin will survive, and now, it's steadily increasing. Just curious why people seem to be surprised behind every price fluctuation whereas it's a normal thing to occur.
5198  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How much BTC is required for trade? on: March 28, 2017, 03:57:49 AM
I have no clue how much Bitcoin required for trading, but in my opinion basically, if you're start trading with a minimum amount let's say like 0.005-0.01 bitcoin is that will waste your time, you know why, trading is not instant dude the price do not always growing up as we want, so I think the more the better and more profitable, why , because when you get some profit in once trading probably quite nice profits
Trading doesn't work like that. It's not a waste of time even if you're trading with only as little as 0.005 - 0.01 amount, have you seen the pump towards XBC lately? it's pumped about over 1500% which could easily turn your 0.005-0.01 BTC 15x of its amount which is definitely not wasting your time for nothing. You just don't look down onto those little amounts because someone might have made decent profits out of these dust.
5199  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is bitcoin worth? Welcome to discuss on: March 28, 2017, 03:48:24 AM
Investors and nonprofessional people have different thinking about bitcoin. But in my thinking now bitcoin is still worth-able and its price groow above $1000. So we have no argue to discuss about bitcoin price value. In my eyes, bitcoin already achieved a successful place and now it is depend on ourself how we gain and make profit from bitcoin.    
Succesfull for a currency in my perspective is not determined on how much the coin's value is, but how's its coverage and usage in this world. It's no use if there's some altcoins which have overwhelming value but only be used among communities which coverage is low. It's ain't real currency but more likely a valuable digital properties.
5200  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Future on: March 27, 2017, 01:24:51 PM
No one can tell if the bitcoin will run on it for 10 years or not, for what happening now with releasing a crypto currency we will see where bitcoin can go. So very hard to predict whether bitcoin have a future or not.
but i am bitcoin will be survive forever because bitcoin is very much stronger currency of the world and there is no one competitive of bitcoin and all bitcoin users are know that bitcoin will be survive for always.
That's right until WWIII occur, mass banned among governments worldwide, the unacceptance of bitcoin towards new potential users, and the lost faith of bitcoin users against bitcoin. There's no such thing which could always survive in this world. Everything has its own point where it will eventually be dead. As for now, bitcoin already have some kind of competition with those newly developed altcoins and the competition happen in many sectors, not only the value of coins themselves.
