Hi guys, i recently came across this Hydrohen 2Factor Authentication app.How so you find it and your views?
https://itunes.apple.com/app/id1406519814

Not sure if it is the best 2 factor authenticating app. But why use something new? You know there might be some flaws with new applications (though not sure if the app is new, but never heard of it). Why not stick with google authentication app? It is well known, simple and very user friendly!

The is nothing new. We have been seeing the price going up and down every year. The real question is, will the price keep going up or start to fall again and return to $6,000 base line? What we are seeing right now is a common patter. Price goes up, falls down, recovers a bit, stays stable for a while and then starts going back up, falling back to price slightly higher than the price fall.

At present, BTC affects the operation of the banking system all over the world. BTC has made the banking system in the world freeze. stagnation activity. That is why many countries banned BTC.
There is no way bitcoin is hampering or affecting the operation of the banking system all over the world. If it was true we would be facing various crisis and bitcoin would have been forced to become the only currency to be used or become totally obsolete. It did not freeze the banking system and only few under developed countries have banned bitcoin.
5364  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Bounties (Altcoins) / Re: How to find a good bounty campaign? on: July 19, 2018, 11:39:53 AM
I joined to many bounty campaigns. But many of them are scams. When I joined to a campaign, I check number of participants, advisers, community chats, and many things. Then bounty program is running normally.  But after few days there is no updates in the spreadsheets, no replies from admins in the community chats. And finally they delete their community chat groups. So I have heard by some of my friends, they also have joined and waste their time with this scam bounty campaigns. So I think we need to talk about "How to find a good bounty campaign"... Smiley
Just checking the number of participants won't actually help. They can fake the numbers. Or there are other users like you who has no clue that they are going to be scammed. Why not just buy the some reliable tokens or crypto currencies and hold it for a long term? You will be making better profit from it and won't let you down like those scam bounty program does.
5365  Economy / Economics / Re: Government regulation on cryptocurrency, GOOD or BAD? on: July 18, 2018, 09:20:21 PM
I came to a realization that government had stepped in already in some countries who are accepted and acknowledge cryptocurrency existence. In fact they made a regulations that has made some negative and positve reactions over the implementation of cryptocurrency regulations like doing KYC (Knoy Your Client) on local exchanges, Registering ICO projects to the government agency concerns and etc which purpose is to prevent illegal or abuse in the use of cryptocurrency from money laundering, funding terrorist groups and etc. Well can you say about this regulations, GOOD or BAD?
Crypto currencies were meant to be totally decentralized and free from any kind of control. But decentralization kind of brings a huge barrier towards this freedom. More over the government is trying to use all these excuses and regulate the currency to bring power towards controlling the coins indirectly. To be honest, regulation on bitcoin is actually bad. But there are some good sides to it which i won't be denying.
5366  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What are the reasons why you must take risk in crypto market? on: July 18, 2018, 09:11:43 PM
There is only one reason right now to take risks when investing on crypto currencies. That reason is the return of investment with huge profit. Think about some random altcoins. The prices of those coins might skyrocket all of a sudden but there are also chances that the same coin might die. You will have to risk yourself to gain the profit.
5367  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crypto Market is healthy again! on: July 18, 2018, 09:01:26 PM
While most of the cryptocurrencies are much below their earlier highs but there are newer and newer predictions coming up for cryptocurrencies. But one analyst is predicting a huge rise ahead for Bitcoin—with a forecast for it to reach as high as $50,000 in 2018. Why Is Bitcoin Price Changing So Fast?
We have seen people giving predictions since the beginning.  But most of them tends to be just some bogus prediction. Just spitting out random numbers  keeping in mind that the price will eventually rise which is actually true. In the long run the price will go up but by how much can not be guessed. Again you will see the naysayers saying the the price rise is just another manipulation of the market.
5368  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who are these nuts? on: July 18, 2018, 08:52:49 PM
Why even bother going through those comments? Obviously they were the ones who "though" they were too late to invest on bitcoin when the price reached $200. As a result they started to regret and naturally started to spread hate against bitcoin. They are probably more mad now seeing the price. Anyways instead of saying "I wish....", start investing now and stop regretting.
5369  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What factors make price bitcoin go to the moon on: July 17, 2018, 08:53:23 PM
Bitcoin does not follow the general market rules but does have some similarities. The price of bitcoin going up or going down depends on many factors. The main factors are the events that are taking place which centers around bitcoin. If an even occurs that is on favor of bitcoin, we will see the price starts to go up since more users get interested in investing on bitcoin. Similarly negative events causes the price to fall.
5370  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Avoid Being Scammed Again on: July 17, 2018, 08:25:04 PM
being scammed is as a result of a little bit of information one has not or is yet to possess as it is what equips one against the schemes of the hackers these days.
Just gaining information won't keep you safe. Sometimes just using common sense will help you doge a huge potential scam. Stupidity is what leads to people getting scammed or hacked. Just be careful about what you do and think twice before you attempt to do something.
5371  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why should signature bounty be given the highest pool? on: July 17, 2018, 05:46:51 PM
What you are suggesting will just cause more spammers to join the forum. Already tons of newbies joining the forum just to spam their signature and earn as much as possible. Though the merit system is helping to counter new users from spamming the forum by joining signature campaign, still there are people that would go to different level to earn anything possible. Its better to assign a pool somewhere else to get better presence in the market.
5372  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel now? on: July 14, 2018, 03:01:39 PM
Instead of just moaning and crying about the price fall, why don't you take this as an opportunity to invest more. The price drop actually opens up opportunity for new investors to invest on crypto currency. The prices are unstable and unpredictable. But they do follow some regular pattern (which has been happening for the last few years) and we can analyse those pattern and say that in the long run, the price tends to go up.
5373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin banned in Sri Lanka on: July 14, 2018, 02:59:00 PM
Never heard anything about Sri Lanka banning bitcoin. Did a quick google search and found no such news. Did you just hear it from someone? Just make sure you verify what you hear before posting such things. There are only like few underdeveloped countries that have banned bitcoin. Sri Lanka isn't in the list. But the bank did issue a warning about the risks associated with investing on crypto currency.
5374  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do older people like investing in Gold/Silver? on: July 14, 2018, 02:33:10 PM
First of all gold or silvers do not depreciated as time goes by. So they know that investing on gold and silver is actually a risk free investment. Where as bitcoin has no certain future and is filled with unknown risks. More over, they are from another generation, thus they are unsure to adopt the current technology. As a result they tend to invest on something they have seen giving them profit.
5375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what causes the market bancor hacked on: July 14, 2018, 01:55:54 PM
I got the news that the market bancor hacked, since the news is in the know many people, the market price down again, what penyeban bancor hacked, please tell me
Did hear about the hack few days ago. The market of crypto currency shouldn't be affected cause as far as i know bancor had some security measures where they were able to freeze the stolen fund and transfer those funds from the hackers wallet to back to safety. Though this measure did bring up doubt on the investors mind about how "semi-centralized" they are.
5376  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which one do you choose? on: July 13, 2018, 10:19:24 PM
Many of us use bitcoin only in exchange/trading site, while bitcoin should be more used in marketplace/online shop. Which one do you choose? Do you prefer to use bitcoin on a trading site or marketplace/online shop? And why do you chose that?
Your question actually makes no sense at all. Obviously if someone wants to make profit from bitcoin, then they will be using the exchanges to trade bitcoins for altcoins. More like making quick profit in short term rather than holding for long term. And those who wants to spend their bitcoins for buying something online, they will be using bitcoin as a form of payment. I don't see how you are relating them both.
5377  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investment in Altcoins give more profits than Bitcoin on: July 13, 2018, 10:14:30 PM
Which should I invest into bitcoin or altcoin
It does give a lot more profit since the price of alt coins are more volatile than that of bitcoin. But the risk associated with investing on altcoin is way much higher than that of investing on bitcoin. The price volatility causes sudden sky rocketing of the price and some lucky people do make fortune out of it. But most of the coins that have sudden rise are actually scam coin which eventually dies. Holding those coins for long term will actually give you nothing.
5378  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Stay safe on: July 13, 2018, 04:45:36 PM
I have just read a good article on security and I feel like it's worth sharing as the hacks keep happening over and over again. Read the basic principles and stay safe guys!

https://www.ccn.com/the-common-tactics-used-to-hack-a-cryptocurrency-exchange/
Honestly, get more suggestions from other websites that are purely crypto currency related. CCN isn't the best source and they are biased. The article sounds more like a scare tactic to repellent users from using bitcoin. Most of the hacks are not that serious and people can easily avoid those with common basic security knowledge. Only dumb people fall for those hacks.
5379  Economy / Economics / Re: Facebook now joining btc? on: July 13, 2018, 04:42:16 PM
Facebook CEO did mention that they would like to welcome bitcoin and other crypto currencies o their platform. But due to massive rise of scams related to ICO they ended up banning all kind of advertisements related to crypto currencies. But as far as i know they did end up reversing the ban which is actually a good thing. Hope they continue to promote and encourage others to use bitcoin.
5380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My country banned bitcoin. What I can do ? on: July 13, 2018, 04:38:59 PM
You sure they banned bitcoin? Or just the usage of bitcoin mining? Even though they banned bitcoin, there is no way they can know that you are using bitcoin. Probably you are from a under developed country. So the chances of them catching you is literally null. Unfortunately those countries are the most corrupted and they are the ones that ban bitcoin so their people can suffer and they can take advantage of their sufferings.
