Ok we understand your situation, indeed New York has been turning out to be the next ground zero.

I think you are not alone though, specially the panic that we have seen lately causing lots of investors to really cash it out because of the scare. Stay safe!

@Dildo Shwaggins - yeah, the fundamentals might not have change, but we haven't seen this kind of pandemic, BTC was born out of recession, this is a big test for crypto holders.
5182  Economy / Speculation / Re: Three economic signals that indicate that Bitcoin will see an increase on: March 29, 2020, 10:56:16 AM
I got confused about what the author of the article is saying:

Quote
Altogether, these three signals show that the global economy is weakening, even as older stats show strength. They’re heralding a massive weakening, and it’s likely that investors will start to flee the stock market in favour of a more stable asset, like Bitcoin. Yes, at this point in time Bitcoin is actually acting as a safe haven for investors – and there’s a reason why.

When did bitcoin become a stable asset? We all know for a fact the bitcoin is very volatile, that's why old and traditional stock person doesn't want to invest on it.

Indeed this is a good news, both of them are able and healthy body that's why there were able to recover just like the rest.
They have a good immune system, actually even Mitchell  said he can still play a series of games even when already infected with the virus, but there's a possibility that he will be infected again if he will not be careful, so there is no choice right now but just to stay at home.

However, there are new cases in the US, as they now top that category, not good for the US because most likely the NBA games are going to be suspended even further.
The number now has increased to 101,000 as I am writing, this is going worst, if this hits millions, I don't know what would happen to the US.

I agree, no need to take risk for players like Mitchell and Gobert, and even if they have recovered, we don't know the extend of the damage, if there is to their body, might be the virus is just hibernating. So he needs to be very careful and take every measures to protect himself and the people around him.

As others have said, US is now the ground zero, I do hope that we're not going to see six digit futures cases.

I'll go with the classic Argentina jersey way back.

But that Barcelona jersey from 2005-2006 remains me when I was still working with an international company because many of my co-workers back then (obviously a die-hard fan) was wearing that jersey going to work. Seeing them wearing it at cafeteria, talking about their team, "those were the days".
5185  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it better process to fund rise instead ICO or IEO? on: March 28, 2020, 04:06:33 PM
If any trusted website we could build there new project will launch by low to high target of money. Suppose one project need low 1 million and high 5 millions USD against coin supply is 50 millions. Which funds will rise, all coin distribute among all investors. Price will depends on investment. Developing and promoting coin are separate.

I'm sorry but I can't understand what you're trying to say here.

Anyways, all things equal, it is still base on the project itself. If they have real life usage, regardless on how many coin supply they have, investors are going to flock and pour their money. We all know that investors are getting smarter, they won't simply invest on something that really looks shitty in the first place and would likely to exit scam, just saying.
5186  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: whats next? on: March 28, 2020, 02:44:17 PM
Bitcoin was designed for situation like this, If you look closely at one hour chart you will find that it is now consolidating very hard with enough volume, which is a clear indicator of upcoming good times. Though it is still very childish to expect that bitcoin will replace the whole fiat world soon because cryptocurrency in general are very young. Now there is a paradox and we need to understand it very clearly,
If we want to see the high bitcoin prices, this is the time to have unshaken belief instead of preparing for safe and quick exit. Hold on to whatever crypto you have invested in. this is the test.
I believe that if we can hold on this time, future is bright.



What's next? definitely the whole crypto is going to survived this pandemic of epic proportions. Of course, it won't be that easy, as we might see the price really fluctuating just like what we have witnessed in the last 24 hours.

But rest assured, when other global markets are going down, bitcoin will bounce back, and will outperform them. Remember that the market is open 24x7, constant buying and selling, so it's going to be hard for some to manipulate and crash the system itself, unlike the stock market. We just need to be patience, and be wise to invest specially during dips.

It must be very hard right now for sports athletes with the lock down around the world as it will be tough to stay fit during this. I know there are ways to stay fit however it won't be the same as practising on a tennis court which so many do. Its looking like we won't see any sports return this year which can help Federer however he will then need to work on his fitness and not being able to practice on courts it he may find it hard to reach peak fitness.  

Given that Roger Federer is still in recovery, I'm sure that he will extend his rehabilitation until everything has settled down. I will consider Federer an elite athlete (who wouldn't?) so for me it's going to be easy for him to recover and return to his peak form. They also have high level trainers to keep them fit in this time and I'm sure they have their own home gym to keep most of the athletes busy if the games are going to be suspended throughout the year.

@vella85 I beg to differ as these are high paid athletes who can afford the best dieticians, and hire professional personal trainers to help them remain fit during this lockdown. As far as Federer is concerned it’s probably his last year, and it’ll be a miracle if he can continue next year too as he’s aged, and has suffered many injuries too hence I feel it’s the perfect time for him to retire from the sports at the end of the year.

https://www.express.co.uk/sport/tennis/1219140/Roger-Federer-planning-to-retire-in-a-different-way

That's what I'm trying to say, they have made so much money in the circuit, so they can hire the best trainers, best therapist or even the best dieticians, and he even have a personal chef to keep them in tip top form even at this lock down period.

https://fitnessclone.com/roger-federer/

But, retiring this year? Nah, it he continues to win after his comeback, retirement will be delayed, that's for sure.
5188  Economy / Speculation / Re: What do you think? on: March 28, 2020, 01:34:17 PM
Given how these two variables seem to be related, do you think the market will fully recover once the problem with regards to the emergence of Corona Virus is resolved? or there are other factors which may trigger an uprise or keep the market low-still?


If we are going with the argument that the market crash because of the Covid-19 scare, then definitely, for bitcoin to recover, the global pandemic should be resolved at once.

However, it seems that the whole global market is collapsing, and only bitcoin have bounce back more than ~50% from the flash crashed. There could be other trigger for an uprise, specially that bitcoin block halving is just around the corner.

Binance just introduced their own crypto debit card, the OP might want to take a look at it.


Quote
Introducing the Binance Card

The Binance Card does everything a regular payment card does, plus much more. It works like a regular debit card issued by your bank – which, in this case, is your Binance.com account. You simply top-up your card with funds through the Binance Card App in the form of Bitcoin or BNB, and you're ready to go. It's as simple as transferring BNB from one wallet to another. Your card will then use this balance for your card payments and automatically deduct all expenses from the balance every time you make payment. The Binance Card is issued by Visa and accepted by more than 46 million merchants offline and online in 200 regions and territories, which makes shopping with crypto easier than ever before.

https://twitter.com/SIChrisMannix/status/1243569502606053380

Some good news just came in, both Gobert and Donovan Mitchell have recovered from COVID-19.
I hope to hear the same for Smart, KD and the rest of the Net's players that got it soon.
This is really good news but on other hand we have sad news as Numbers are increasing very quickly for victims of Corona Virus now USA going on top with peoples effected by this Virus.

Yeah, it’s great to hear that both Mitchell and Gobert have recovered and that they are doing well now. It was with Gobert's infection that the NBA suspended the league in the first place. But we still need a lot of good news before the NBA resumes its normal activities and keeps the world cheerful.


Indeed this is a good news, both of them are able and healthy body that's why there were able to recover just like the rest. However, there are new cases in the US, as they now top that category, not good for the US because most likely the NBA games are going to be suspended even further.
5192  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin fall on: March 27, 2020, 10:16:20 PM
Bitcoin has already gained it's pace and moving towards the right direction which indicates that it will not go back to $3k anytime sooner as it's already on it's path to recovery and I hope it will cross $6k mark soon if the uptrend continues without any surprise dump but msot of the countries are currently under stage 3 of corona virus and outcome might have a strong effect on value of Bitcoin.

The decline of btc price is just normal, but yes, this past week it is owed to the coronavirus pandemic because many people are panicking and selling their portfolio. But btc will move up and down, and we have seen that countless of times, yet, bitcoin is still here and surviving and trying to go back again. I guess, by now, we should not be surprised by this movement. Just be prepared on what to do with your portfolio.

What do you mean normal? I think the current crash is not normal, -50% or more in a day? it was really affected by the corona virus news. However, after that unexpected crash, bitcoin has gathered, move from its lowest, $3800 and now steadily around $6500. Yes, there is the potential that it could slid, but bitcoin is so resilient that I believed it can bounce back.
5193  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin last forever? on: March 27, 2020, 09:12:09 AM
We see that's some of the cryptocurrencies ranking level are decreased such as dogecoin before it was ranked #4 but currently I think it doesn't listed even in top #10 ranking... So can bitcoin also decrease its rank in the future or it will remain #1 rank forever?.

BTC has been the poster child of cryptocurrency and we can even call it the first truly cryptocurrency that started everything. And as you can see, all other coins are called alternate or alternative coins. So those coins ranking are going to be interchange, we have seen ETH and XRP bouncing back at 2nd and third spot if I'm not mistaken.

But as far as the number one ranking goes, there's no one that can dethrone bitcoin for now. Look at the dominance, above 60% and as low as 40%-45% during the peak at 2017. So for me, no one can topple bitcoin at the top spot.
5194  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Corona Virus coin on: March 27, 2020, 08:13:26 AM
Is this some kind of joke that someone has created coronavirus coin? I have been surprise. The more surprising was hearing that Yobit has listed this coin in their exchange. That's shame once again for Yobit. They have been listing scam shitcoin for long time.

No, don't be surprised by bad actors creating a token to take advantage of the current corona virus.

We have seen it already, I think there are like 3-5 coins that pop up during this pandemic. I'm only not surprised by Yobit listing it, they have been tagged for like years of being a scam exit, so who would better support it but Yobit themselves.

I do hope that those people who 'invest', will not loss their money on those scam projects because obviously, it will be just use for pump-and-dump.

5196  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why bitcoin should be bullish at this moment! on: March 23, 2020, 10:16:38 PM
Payment for goods and services through cash can transmit Corona virus, doing transactions through bank, especially cash deposits can also transmit the virus. The safest way that we can create values and pay for goods and services during this time still remain blockchain and those selling off at this moment are doing so because they did not spend time to study the Blockchain technology and how it works.

Not so fast though, those that are selling needed their cash right-away.

And bitcoin currently is not yet widespread, what I mean is there are few off-line and on-line store that readily accepts bitcoin as payment. Yes it is safe because it's cashless, but we can't use it today, only few countries, like Japan or Australia or Germany could have stores that accept it. So as much as we think that bitcoin can be good at this crisis, it is not, unfortunately. On the contrary though, bitcoin has shown resilience again, Fed announces unlimited bond purchases in unprecedented move aimed at preventing an economic depression.
5197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I realise Coronavirus is not a reason why on: March 23, 2020, 09:56:07 PM
But what makes Bitcoin price go down
As the spread continue people start to panic with the disease not Btc, thinking of many Negatives and some people exchange their Crypto to friendly fiat money so they can cover some emergency staff buys extra food, drinks, masks, etc, the simple view is that many sell result to cheapest sell which automatic kill the prices of an Assets.


So with that logic, obviously the panic about the corona virus is one factor that cause a sharp decline on the price of BTC. Well, you can't take out that there could be whales who take advantage of the situation and play us.

Media did also play a part as well, as they reported the spread and probably blow out everything out of proportion. Nevertheless, bitcoin is very strong and resilient, as other markets are still in shock and have difficulty recovering, bitcoin has been bouncing back from $5000-$6500 or more.

Well there are around 5000 coins in circulation so it will be very difficult to track all of them.

As others have said, most of the top coins have social medias like Twitter or even a website, so that's the first thing that you have to look at and see the progress of the project. And this can help you out make the decisions to whether invest on them or not. Most of the time they will give dates regarding their schedule, it could be new releases, partnership etc.
5200  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Corona coins taking over on: March 23, 2020, 01:52:44 PM
None of these coins makes any sense to me and they are just another plot to scam those who knew nothing, if you have more you can drop I'ma will be glad to upgrade the list

None of them really make sense at all, how can someone take advantage of the pandemic?

And who are in the right frame of their mind are going to invest on it? Maybe there are few people who are going to ride on this hype to be a pump-and-dump coin and then exited when they make money from those unsuspecting victims. I do hope that common sense will prevail so that no one will fall for this gimmick from this spineless scammers.

@Free1bitco.in - well they can say that the money will be donated to the victims of the pandemic, but I highly doubt that they are going to do it.
