Actually, Facebook banned ICO advertisement and not cryptocurrency as a whole, as most ICOs at that time (and even now, although it's not nearly as popular) were defrauding investors and contributors.

It would help if they do adopt an existing cryptocurrency or create their own. As at now it's difficult to pay for advertisement using lower currencies and it's not as effective as when you use a dollar-account. So a cryptocurrency would balance the process.

Impact is one character of a quality post. A post that can not impact on the reader in any manner wisely can not be referred to as a quality post. A quality post can be minute but still contain very useful knowledge in it

Bitcoin undoubtedly leads the cryptocurrency market, it has lost a lot of grounds in terms of dominance but it still controls majority of the market. Knowledge of these could direct investors on the right investment decisions, it dies not necessarily mean one has to sell all out for it.
A lot of people has successfully traded altcoins and profited from it, and it offers lots of utility which would be useful in different businesses and industries

I am not going to bump you down cause you are still at a low rank, but in general, I am averse to this sort of merit giveaways, even from much higher ranking members. It just looks very like an attention bait. Merits can easily be distributed quietly, to deserving posts. There is also now a sort of reward for giving merits to this post. Although they are quite expensive

Some people thrive better exchanging currencies quickly in day trading and some work better monitoring the market over a short period of time. You would have to try out both with small capital over a very short period to see which suits you best.
Firstly do you have any previous trading experience? If you are pressed financially cryptocurrency trading is not the best bet for quick cash.

It serves as a huge red flag and hints at shady deals going on in that project, if I was not already an investor but was watching the currency, I would surely not be investing.
Of you already own those coins, you have an option to panic sell before the official delisting, it would go for almost nothing considering the controversy, and there's a slight possibility that the project would survive and thrive.

This publication appears to be a shill, and the market right now is very similar to what it has been for a long time now, except it us slightly above the $4k mark, this does not mean we are on the verge of a bull run, just means the price is slightly higher than a week ago.

This is not true, the CEOs of projects gets to create tokens for themselves during the token sale phase and even allocate a portion of the total supply to the team working on the project.
Bitcoin did not have an ICO, but during the early days it was pretty easy and cheap to mine out bitcoins, and Satoshi is surely sitting in a huge pile of Bitcoin right now.

I would say the bearish road or trend is over, cause the market is still low, but the downward slump mighy be over, and we may be at an 'accumulation phase', which is the most common phrase used. We might experience slow rises over the next couple of months before we begin to see real growths.

So if a user wants to join the contest but has made no previous post on the topic, and they want to articulate one, do they also have to wait for 28 days and then post again in that subject to quality for the reward? It's your contest and you make the rules, but s shorter time frame would be better or none at all. I don't see the point of waiting to post on the same topic.

At first glance it looks like a very low target for the end of the year, but considering the protracted bear market and the lack of activity in the market and reduced volatility, it could genuinely take that long to breach that range, although LN may not be the reason for that, the phase of growth is iminent and bitcoin can grow rapidly supported by the community

It's about a month since this post was made, and from the current look of the market, I can say it went slightly up, with bitcoin slightly going above $4000 and staying within that range and this has caused a similar rise in other cryptocurrencies over that time frame.

In addition to this always be proactive, if your device is hacked there are other means your funds could be stolen. Regularly scan your device, avoid clicking on unverified links and double check permissions apps have on your device. Your safety is your priority.

Bitcoin does not need to be integrated into any nations economic system, it has it's own economics and product value independent of the happenings in any nation. Bitcoin has its own face value and it's a global currency.



It does not have to be subject to any private laws if any nation, it is controlled and regulated by the community.

I have always disagreed with the whale manipulations theory. Firstly, whales are not a group of people living in the same apartment, they are scattered all over the world, although it's likely a few know each other. I do not think they can always pool together and manipulate the price.
And also it's very risky with how the currency has grown, and considering the amount they have invested.

Can you share a link were he said that. I find it hard to believe the head of the bank of international settlements, would call bitcoin a 'bubble', when's bubble is a period and not the commodity itself, or how he would classify it as a ponzi scheme. This are very asinine arguments against bitcoin, and should not be coming from financially astute individuals. Except it is just a witch Hunt.

Lightening network as the name implies is a network of it's own, and it does not speed up the rate of transactions on the bitcoin network, nor is it made specifically for Bitcoin. It's an outsourced technology which can be used to transfer bitcoins.
Endeavour to look into videos and posts listed already on this thread.

This is a case of your word against yours and it's your text which you must have posted in error which got your other account banned. I would assume the moderators did a deeper check using IP addresses or some other sort of research, although they do not regularly do that

Money rules the world, and any asset with monetary value would be owned by a small percentage of the population. Bitcoin was designed to be a rivals currency and offer freedom to those who did not like the monopoly and activities of banks.
Every system has it's flaws and would not suit everyone, but with digital assets we all have an alternative. Other physical assets like gold have also been controlled by the financial sector.
Bitcoin would create a revolution, it would take time.
