The deal is that china has a lot of bitcoin in its nation, we don't know how they can move it outside the country but the miners, the traders, the ICO participants and everyone else in that nation wants to cash out their crypto currencies and sell it to each other, they earn it from other nations and people from all around the world but then exchange it between themselves.

So, if China was smart even a bit they would have collected the crypto profits in crypto taxes in form of crypto to build a new vault for themselves and in case a country wants to apply an embargo or a trade war like USA wanted to they could just simply sell all their crypto they collected via taxes and could get dollars for it instead of yuan and then sell those dollars to drop the value of it as well. Its smart, its cunning and it would make a nation super strong in economy against others.

I do not really understand what makes government somehow go against facebook in every aspect. I have seen that usa government allowing banks to ruin the american economy and then pay them back for the mistakes they did and let them continue doing their horrible methods the way they want scott free without any punishment at all. Then they are going against facebook for privacy reasons and now against Libra for the same reasons and put SEC in charge of checking it out.

Look I am against facebooks privacy breaching as much as the next guy but if you are so against facebooks shady workings why are you not doing the same thing for JP Morgan or any other huge corporation? They have literally ruined NATIONS with their horrible judgement of finances, letting them go but bothering Facebook makes no sense at all.

I think BNB will continue to increase over the years for sure, I don't know if it will go up or down in the next upcoming week for example, those type of short predictions are never my expertise and I have never been successful with it. However if you ask me long term (as in years) then I am pretty sure BNB will continue to skyrocket as long as Binance continues their operation.

They are looking into dex stuff and have been promoting their IEO coins and now margin trading and they sometimes burn BNB too, all of that combined means they will keep on improving themselves over the years and will make Binance bigger and bigger each day and that would make BNB go higher in price. Thats why I turned all my affiliate income into BNB and keep it there for the past year.

I think it all depends on this new developments. From what I understand (maybe I am wrong and if I am then please correct me) ETH supposed to become a staking coin one day but it hasn't happened yet, they were also trying to do more things with the core and they still haven't, they managed to improve on some stuff but there is still a lot of work to do.

So, if those things happen in the 2020 and then they were liked by the public as well then it will get another huge bull run and would get to a crazy price, however if they fail to do it or they do it but not liked by the community then I doubt it will become anything bigger. They are still the number one altcoin and number two overall so even if they "fail" they won't be like this crazy low obscure coin, they are still ethereum so it will be fine.

I think we can add a fourth one but that could be diluted between these three as well if you want. Its hype, I don't know if hype is an emotion or if we could rename it like something to "rush" or "excitement" or whatever but when people see bitcoin or any other currency going up like 50% then they want to get in as well, that is a wrong type of thinking and hurt many people over the years.

I have seen people buying bitcoin at 20 thousand dollars as well, I mean when something goes up so much you should be staying away and watching what will happen, buy it when it goes down and sell it when it goes up because if you buy when it goes up in the end you will be disappointing eventually. That is why I think we can add that 4th one and make it be hype or whatever we can name it.

I think blockchain can't do that but wallets of bitcoin could potentially steal some customers. Right now, there are places like xapo or coinsbank or whatever else you want to use and with that you can literally get a debit card that is filled with bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies they work with and than you get to spend it wherever you want like a regular debit card and than you still get to keep the rest of it on bitcoin anytime you want.

So, you are basically spending bitcoin on stuff and can be using it wherever you want in the whole world as well, it is giving you that insane freedom over your finance and you do not have to ever use a bank, you can even send money to people from there as well because it is credit card like system and all you have to do is wire them some money.

What you need to know about arbitrage bots is that even if you can find one that is working perfectly that might also mean there are other people who will use it as well and that may make things a lot harder for you. If an arbitrage bot is actually working and sold to people than how can we so sure about another bot is not doing the same thing at the same time covering the difference quicker than you?

Hence, you need to make sure you have a decent amount of capital to start with in case things get sour for a while and your bot is always one step behind the other persons bot and you do not make good enough money, eventually you will make some profits but until than you should always be careful with your capital and not spend more than 10% of it in any trade at all.

Donald Trump is a big fool if he thinks people who are interested in bitcoin and crypto would listen to him. To begin with crypto is for people who are against banks and against establishment, this is the president of usa who is basically faking his wealth and acting all establishment himself so why would any crypto person listen to him at all.

There is not a single soul on this earth that would say "well if Donnie says so then I will stop" so it won't affect crypto in any sense. However, if I know donnie well enough then he might come up and say something great about cyrpto the next day as well because he is known to change his opinions quite frequently which is why nobody really cares about what the hell he says since it can change in matter of hours.

I think these "corrections" will keep happening for a long time. The reason why they happen so quickly is that they are breaking the stop losses plus puts the panic sellers in danger mode as well. So, all you have to do is manage to sell enough bitcoin to drop the price only a bit and when you drop it that bit (mostly people who have bought bitcoin long time ago and have been waiting to sell it to make a profit finally and get rid of it) then the traders sees that and change their perspective on charts and they decide that its time to sell as well, after that happens then it triggers the stop losses and some people sell as well, so after even that the panic sellers fearing that bitcoin will go down even more sell as well.

All these combined makes a super quickly fall for bitcoin, however the good news is, it also makes going back up quicker as well.

I understand that 100k has been the goal of many bitcoin people and I feel like its such a target that if we finally reach it one day then we will fall like huge, because everyone aims at it so much that when we hit it then they will sell it, nobody would wait for 110k or 200 or 300, if we reach 100k they have been waiting for it for years so they will just dump all coins they have in their possession.

So, I both want to see 100k but I also do not want to, maybe stay around 50-80 for a long time before we jump over 100k so we could both enjoy the increases a bit before we eventually end up losing most of it back. Hopefully though all these experts that calls for 100k is right and we reach that, the higher the price the more credibility bitcoin gets from non-financial world as well.

CP3 seems to be stuck on Thunder for now. They are trying to find a way to get rid of him but it looks like it is not going to happen anytime soon because his contract is so big and he is the president of NBPA so he will not just waive his rights or get bought out so he will have to get traded in order to not count for the cap and that is very difficult.

OKC wants to get as many picks as they can and right now they have 14 first round picks and 4 pick swaps until 2026 plus god knows how many second round picks with it, if they decide to unload Chris Paul somehow then they would have to give up some picks as well and that doesn't really makes sense at all, if they want to rebuild they need picks so if they trade away picks to get rid of cp3 then what is the point of getting so many picks to begin with? I really wonder they will end up doing eventually.

I think the good part is to have more security and less need for trust, the regular exchanges get hacked all the time and their hot wallet getting emptied or the api gets hacked so there are fake pump and dumps to make money with other peoples money as well so in the end there is really no trust in any of the big exchanges, even binance got hacked couple of times both to get their hot wallet emptied (they recovered from it) but also get the apis hacked so one coin would increase like 700% and make money for the hackers (nobody recovered from that).

So, when you have a decentralized exchange those type of things can't happen since there is no central deal that can be hacked, they would have to hack each and every single individual account to make a difference and that is way harder than just hacking one exchange.

Honestly, I doubt anyone cares about Trump at all. He talks about whatever he wants the way he wants and that is not just crypto currency neither, even stock market is not caring about what he does and that is why it doesn't go too low nor too high because they know he might do something crazy that would drop the prices of all stocks or do something weird and increase the stock market prices.

Only the republican Americans and only some part of it as well cares about trump, all the other Americans and rest of the world sees him as someone not to be taken seriously and doesn't even feel like he is the president at all, he is just a puppet for some people around him and does whatever he is told. So couple of tweets about crypto by him means absolutely nothing to us at all.

You are absolutely right. Like I always say, whatever deal that’s not guaranteed to be safe is better to be avoided. Escrow method for me is good. And I think this is the first time am reading that scammers now work with Escrow agent and I must say that this is really appalling but I believe all is under control.

Partnership is good but not in a platform like this where people do not really know themselves. There is possibility that the OP is sure of delivering but the question is , who will trust him enough for this? It would have been better he didn’t suggest it at all because there’s really no way he can get a partner here on the forum except for some newbies that probably didn’t do their research.

I think talking about instant withdrawal, the first thing that would come in mind is the reputation of the site because from all experiences I have gathered, only reputable sites offer instant withdrawal. I have never seen a non-reputable site that offers quick withdrawal and no site that gives quick withdrawal ever turns out fake.

For instance I have been using Nitrogen and sincerely I am always glad about how quickly  I get to receive my payments and meanwhile I have friend using other sites that would always complain about the sites challenges in making payment. I advised my friend last year on a site that keeps delaying payment but he didn’t accept it was a fake site because in the end he still gets paid after the delay. But just last month, he has called to inform me that the site has finally shut down.

Depends on the nation as well, I mean if you live in USA than you need more money to be financially set versus if you are in some African small country, I am sure people in Zimbabwe or Venezuela do not need that much bitcoin to be financially set forever, with just like 10 bitcoins they should be able to live forever whereas an American would need something like 500 bitcoins to live forever with it, maybe even more if they live in New York or Los Angeles type of expensive places.

I would personally want to have Dash masternode (or something similar in passive income sense) that would make me enough money with the profits, so if I need 1000 dollars per month then I want dash masternode to give me that much if its 1 node or 2 or 5 doesn't matter to me. That way I can both keep my capital without spending and still don't have to work ever again.

Look I am bullish on bitcoin as much as the next guy and I do feel like it will go up more than people even imagines but at the same time looking back on history and hoping that it will do the same thing is quite wrong. This is bitcoin, it can go up or it can go down but it doesn't have to do it in the same way that it has happened before, it could do it much differently this time around.

How 2011 increase was different from 2014 and 2014 was different from 2017, this could be different from all others as well. That is why even if you are bullish (or if you are bearish on bitcoin but then why are you here at all) then you should still not look back on the old charts and try to imagine what would happen if the same thing happened here, that is only assumption that might not happen and would ruin your predictions.

You have successfully outlined all the good sides of crypto gambling of which I agree with you completely, but don’t also forget to add that gamblers have become extremely greedy since the invention of cryptocurrency gambling. I am not trying to be on the Negative side, but sincerely, as much as online gambling has made gambling more easily, it has also succeeded in raising gamblers whose gambling motive is completely different from the initial intention of gambling.

In the days of traditional gambling, gambling was more or less for entertainment but these days, especially in this era of crypto gambling, we see more of greedy gamblers who do everything possible to make money from gambling and this has really destroyed so many gamblers.

Harden and Westbrook are both primary ball handlers but what you are missing out here is that CP3 was always injured and was getting super old whereas Westbrook only missed a few games in the past 6 years and is an iron man when it comes to conditioning so he will be helpful for the "run" part of d'antonis system.

So, yeah when it comes down to half court then Westbrook will be probably just standing in the corner and not doing much but he will be the fast paced running down the court and always keeping the offense on their toes guy when it comes to the seven seconds or less parts of the playbook. He also has the super advantage of going inside with force and dunking on people, so he could totally just run it down and kick it out to harden for the three as well.

Only worrying part of the deal is that Westbrook has been shooting a lot worse recently, both on free throws and three pointers, if he can recover that then they will be unstoppable.

I have seen plenty of mlm type of ICO as well and nobody talks about that, it was the worst type of coin offering I have seen and nobody really cares about it. You pay a certain amount of money to get that coin from another person and then that person keeps their coin plus gives you their coin, then you sell it to someone else and you keep yours but get your money back and you can sell it to as many people as possible.

It is literally that way that they are getting funded as well as mining that as well. It is the worst thing that happened to crypto currency because we already have the ponzi schemes in the world as of right now and we do not need it to come to crypto as well, we have something good here and we do not want it to get blown off neither, we just want to keep it as it is.
