Buying/sellling stuffs , making payments with bitcoin and all this stuff is good but is it efficient ?
I am not against bitcoin or anything, in fact, I love it but the fact that bitcoin isn't efficient for making micro payments at peak hours is enough for me to say that we need an alternative currency or method that will enable us to make hassle free micro payments in a short duration. BTC can surely be used for larger transactions and this will benefit everybody but micro payments isn't a thing for bitcoin right now at least until the lightning network is established worldwide.

This is not the first such situation with blockchain.com, I have heard about so many such hacks. If it is not an "inside job", it means that it is the worst secure Bitcoin online wallet in the entire internet. Stay away from Blockchain.com!!
Well it might be an inside job as well but I don't think it would be so. I have seen many people on social media who guarantee that their investment would return more than normal gains. I have encountered such scam myself but I knew that something is fishy so I would ignore. I also noticed that the scammer told the victims to deposit the amount in the wallet at blockchain.com The people used to deposit the amount to their accounts at blockchain.com and voosh the amount would get transferred to some addresses. I guess the OP is a victim of one such scam. |

Hello, everybody, friend ...? Sorry I'm a newcomer, at the BitCointalk forum, I don't know much about Bitcoin, but I've heard a lot about Bitcoin, especially in print and electronic media, in one day I read about Bitcoin information in this forum, I am confused where to start, because I see many good, positive and negative posts. For example: Positive side:1. Topic: Working for Bitcoin2. Topic: Bitcoin ATM's are popping upNegative side:1. Topic: Will Bitcoin collapse by a global government crackdown2. Topic: Five Reasons Bitcoin Should Be Closed DownSo I was a little hesitant in investing in Bitcoin, of course because I was confused between good and bad, but I was still sure. What I want to ask the old seniors and understand the phenomenon of bitcoin in the future, whether I continue to invest in my estab lishment or not ...! for reasons of the above posting factors. (thank you). Investing in cryptocurrencies should be one's own decision. The best advice I could give you is the best advice you would have ever heard. The experts say this every time that invest only the amount you are willing to loose. So do exactly what the experts say and decide an amount that you are willing to loose and then invest it in bitcoin. If in future you think that you believe in bitcoin then you can invest further but at least you would be having an initial investment at that point of time which will help you in making a better decision. |

Bitcoin is a great invention and achievement to humanity and so are the other cryptocurrencies like ether, cardano, ripple etc.. which has a use in real world.
The future will be so much better when these cryptocurrencies are accepted in the mainstream platforms. BTC can be used for large transctions.
The thing that bothers me is why can't other cryptocurrencies can be used for micro payments while BTC be used for larger transactions.
Why do people keep trolling bitcoin just because it can't be used for micro payments efficiently.

So. I've seen this in a thread: lol @ the snicker comment but I'm sick of you crypto guys tricking regular people into investing in this scam. There are not enough greater fools left for the price to go back up to 20k. I know you guys are trying to get one last pump to dump on the noobs though.
And globally an increase of posts saying that it's the end. That the big scam is finished and that now it's just a deah fish. That it was all a global scam. Now I don't care if some old traders are dumb enough to sell right now. This post is for all the newcommers that fear investing. When I first invested in 2015 I was worried and only bought up to 2 coins while I could have bought about a dozen rather easily. Now I'm still happy I've bought at this time but I would have loved if some old coiners managed to convince me to buy muuuuuuuuch more. Here is why you should buy, and buy now: -BTC is not dead. There is no reason for btc to die, the only way would be to stop all mining but that's simply not possible as anyone can mine, even you. -Already 83% of BTC has been mined. That means a very small inflation. You need only a very small investment to keep the price of btc stable. That's not the case of dollars or euro you know... They get printed over and over... -BTC has a real life purpose. Using WU to transfer money is hundreds of time more expensive than using BTC. BTC isn't made for daily purchases but it can handle large amount transfer like nothing else! -Next halving is in less than two years: https://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/If you don't know what halving is, just remember that halving means less BTC mined means price increase. -Market value is already in the 63 billions. For the price to stay the same, you need only a few billions considering the small increase of coins. -Tons of coins get lost. I'm not even sure the number of BTC is actually increasing if you consider the people losing their private keys, the people dying without handing their coins, the amount of dust btc lost in small wallets... -Not a single solution has been provided to avoid another world financial crisis. Banks and government are still exactly doing the same thing. And at the next financial crisis, when governments will have to print billions and billions to bail out the banks, what currency will not get inflation in any way? Yeah you goddamn right. -For anyone in countries not 100% safe (means anyone except USA, France UK and Germany). Remember governments and banks simply prevented any citizen to get their money from their bank account with the Greek crisis. They will never be able to freeze your coins. So don't be afraid. It's better than any other investment you could make. Chill out, buy, and buy now as the price can only go up for the next halving. Cheers. You know why the experts say that only invest the amount you are willing to loose in cryptocurrencies, it's because of these FUDs, FOMO and panic trades. If a trader actually invests only the amount he/she is willing to loose then there is no need for him to fear. He/She can trade without any fear. This means that even if the price has dumped real hard then we should not be selling it. Rather we should hold and wait for the price to recover and grow to gain more profits. This is what I am doing right now and will probably keep doing for as long as I want. |

The question is as simple as the title is. What do you guys think is better between a decentralized exchange(Eg: IDEX) and a centralized exchange which has a peer to peer network (Eg: WazirX)
Comment your thoughts and also suggestions if something is better than these.

Cryptocurrencies by Market Capitalization
Watchlist
# Name Market Cap Price
1 Bitcoin Bitcoin $64,043,936,392 $3,653.57
2 Ethereum Ethereum $12,648,375,055 $120.84
3 XRP XRP $12,495,364,776 $0.304404
First things first; Why are the names repeated in Name column ? It's good to see that there is a short gain in bitcoin's and ether's price but we don't know how long the gains will last. I can't really say about XRP but I can place my bets on ether and bitcoin that it will definitely be at a better price by the end of this year. |

Okay then, according to your point of view we see that things are changing with BCH but how does that makes you think that BCH will go to $2k by 2019 ? For all I know BCH has been dropping in price same as BTC. I don't see people saying BTC will touch $20k by the end of 2019. I would just say not to believe on such predictions and trade only by doing your own research and analysis. |

Hello everybody,  Today the market is green again, will it last for a long time or just an atmosphere of comfort for a moment and then red? How do you respond to the current atmosphere. Thank you for your attention.  I think this is a minor pump in bitcoin's price and it won't last long. I just encashed a few dollars worth of bitcoins for my expenses The sudden surge in bitcoin's price might be also increased other altcoin's price which is a good sign and also a usual thing. If things keep going the same way then this might be a start to a bull run although I highly doubt it. |

Howdy Folks!
This is what we are in a need of, a green color!
Today was a good day for btc, profits are nice..
But, what do you think? will this last?
Is this the Bull Run?
Honestly, the crypto market needed a good event like this one so that peoples could think again about crypto, imho, i think that some whales are back to the game ground. Otherwise, that move might make people Fomo'in and there will be bigger dumps.. Be wise guys!
*Share your thoughts*
This is definitely not a bull run mate. Although it might be the starting point but then I don't think it is. For now, we don't even know what is the reason behind this sudden spike in BTC's price. It might be because of the reason that the SEC commissioner thinks that ETF might be approved by the regulators but that is just a thought. This might also lead to a slow drop in price. Hence a bull run is definitely not guaranteed. |

right now we are having a bull run in the crypto market. Let's hope it won't be of short duration.  P.S Buy at your own risk LOL How can you even think that a gain of $200 in the price of bitcoin can be called as a 'Bull run'. This is anything but a bull run. Besides that a bull run actually a trend of positive gains over a certain period of time. But this my friend, is just a short surge in the price of bitcoin. This small spike in bitcoin's price will be soon dropped or further raised. |

The whales and big investors did not need indicators both (technical and fundamentals indicators) before buying or selling Cryptocoins. This has just made me to believe that the indicators are just there for me and you to lose money and not to make money as the price will still go against you no matter how intelligent you are in technical analysis. The market seeing to make it own mind and that is to say the whales push it to any direction they decide at a particular time.
I think that the only thing that is in our favor is our luck. If we are lucky then we will gain profits. The indicators are there so that we can analyse the market. There are great tools to know about how bitcoin has behaved in the past but the indicators cannot guarantee of assured gains as predictions in crypto are not right most of the times. Though indicators can still be used to limit the losses and risks of loosing money. |

In my opinion, poloniex is one big fraud. Why? I already explain. I have a polonax account for 3 years there was never a problem sometimes delays in payments or withdrawals, but what happened to me was a catastrophe. I would like to emphasize that my account is verified with a personal ID !!. A week ago, my 2fa went down and I decided to remove it using the Poloniex Support. A simple thing, create a query and wait patiently. To my surprise, after the first ticket, it was closed after 40 minutes so I decided to write why then again it was closed without an answer. After one week and after 20 tickets, I did not receive a response and the funds on my account are frozen without the possibility of logging in by a faulty 2fa. Of course I have 16 digital conds to install google authenticator on another phone but it does not help. And so I was robbed of the savings that I accumulated for 5 years. So tomorrow I go to the lawyer and to solve the problem. I will inform you about the progress on a regular basis. Below I put the screenshot as evidence of idiotic behavior of help poloniex. http://ifotos.pl/zobacz/ticket-2p_qwhwnwa.pnghttp://ifotos.pl/zobacz/tiketpng_qwhwnes.pngNew Proof 13-11-2018http://ifotos.pl/zobacz/ticket-3p_qwhshqh.pngI am glad I stopped using Poloniex at the right time. To be honest, I started my trading on Poloniex and fortunately I didn't encounter any issues until the last trade on Poloniex. It was around 2-3 years back and it is after that the exchange got hacked. Since the incident, I never dared to open the exchange again  |

While checking around, I came across some write-up of how long this bear market have been and we also get to know that this bear market is the longest. I found out this: https://www.ccn.com/the-crypto-bear-market-wont-last/amp recently. So what's your own opinion and say about how soon will the bear market be over? I just skimmed through the article and came to a conclusion that we can still not predict of how long could this bear market be. The trader was himself anonymous in the article and God knows if it's even true or not. Even if it is true then there are no guarantees in crypto. We definitely don't know if the halving would increase or decrease bitcoin's price. |

Hey, guys! We are working on a creating our platform for crypto-exchange and would like to know your opinion what crypto-pairs to launch first?
You can include the top 100 coins on your exchange and pair them with BTC, USDT, ETH and any once coin of your choice. Most of the times I have noticed that all the exchanges include at least these 3 pairs (BTC, USDT and ETH), so avoiding any of these could lead to a disaster. If you are planning on to include more pairs then you can include XRP, LTC, BCH etc.. You can also create your coin and pair it with the bigger coins. |

Im quite new to crypto so i wanted to know what exchanges do you use and i'd be grateful for advises on security. I currently keep my crypto on localbitcoins but it recently got hacked to im concerned for my money. I want to move it somewhere safe but still be able to make trades without much fuss. Im still learning to trade but im pretty serious about it. Can you recommend me a good exchange that hasn't been hacked yet?
Localbitcoins would be the last place where I would keep my coins knowing the fact that it recently got hacked and the fact that there are so many scammers in that playground. If you have a big capital and trade with a small amount from your capital then what can do is, keep your capital in a trusted wallet(Mycelium, Exodus etc...). Then transfer the amount you want to trade with in to an exchange that is more secured than the others(Binance) . This is the safest way not to loose all your capital and still trade on an exchange. |

When I started trading, I had no idea on charts and market sentiments but I decided to also benefit from the Pro traders as they move the market.
First of all, note that the market has mainly three sides, bull/green (short or long term), sideways, and bear/red (short or long term).
If you're an inexperienced trader like me, don't look at the sideways and red markets. Always wait for a green market (and it happens at least once every month). During that time, set a little target (say 10%-20%) you can even make more if you follow a good coin. Enter the market and take your profits.
Wait for the next round (probably a month a later)- you can keep your money in a stable coin, and by the end of a year you could make (10-20%)x 12 on your money.
Don't try trading everyday if you're not a PRO, they'll squeeze your money from your hands lol...and also never try catching tops and bottoms of you're not a PRO, they'll squeeze it once again. (remember you may be dealing with bots).
Merry Christmas (if you celebrate) and a Happy New Year to y'all.
Edited: This isn't to say that don't study the market. In fact you'll need to build your knowledge to survive in crypto, especially in these times, but this is a message to newbies who're trying out the market (fact is that, you can study the market as long as you want but if you joke all your money will be drained). Have you ever asked yourself why people in paid groups make the most money from trading, you just can't learn TA and FA lol.... There are PROs and they're moving the market so my trick is to help you also benefit as they move the markets. So that you don't try competing with them coz they can make you REKT, trust me.
I guess what you are saying is true because most of the times when beginners enter to trade in a market, they end up loosing their capital. This is only because of greed and the fact that they don't set their targets. I still remember doing this myself when I started trading. There were no targets. Just money going in and coming out. Most of the trades were in a loss and that is when I took a break to understand the market. Now there are 2 strategies that I stick to and wait for the results. |

Now all most coins or tokens are too low. So i decide to buy some coins but i don't take proper decision which coins will be too much profitable within this month? Please comment below with your opinions.
Thanks in advance
There will be nobody who will be able to answer to that question accurately since predictions in crypto doesn't come true most of the times. Although there is no guarantee of gains form investing in coins but you can surely try investing in the coins from top 20 coins. Cardano, Tron, EOS, BNB are some coins which are potential to return some profitable gains. |

hi traders i am sharing my mistakes and experience so that it will help you
here are the mistakes i did and the with experience i got answers to my mistakes
1) dont (care or think) too much about your money while trading this will reduce your confidence and make our decisions to reverse
and put money which you dont need
2) learn about money management (i know you might have heard about this many times , this is a huge topic to explain )
in short
remember trading and investing is a business, you have to risk something to gain something ,
so here is what you can do , risk is in your hand and you dont know how much rewards you will get so all you can do is control your risk , so calculate your risks and then enter trades and wait with patience
at first your goal must be to protect your capital , and then protect your profits , dont risk everything
3) Do not get panic by watching others analysis , remember panic is not good for trading, be confident with your analysis
4) if you have got good profits then keep it as a back up capital , when there are bad days if you lose your capital this back up capital will help you
5) dont trade if markets are too much volatile , no trade is also a trade , relax on that days watch some comedy films
6) dont ever think to recover your losses , or trade against
7) if you have entered trade by calculating risk then dont exit in middle wait for your targets , fluctuations are common
8 ) one of my friend told me this --- to keep track of trades
like why we lost that trade , why that trade reached its target,keep a record of this and just go through this when you are free trust me it will help too much
9) everyday you will not be profitable so set a limit for loss everyday if it is reached than stop trading ( i have lost money before without doing this )
10) If your finger is stuck somewhere, in real life you must think to get your finger out of there , but in trading if your finger(trade) is stuck then you must cut it and get out of that trade, because in trading finger(capital) grows back ( this i learnt by watching psychology videos )
11) I know many of you have heard this points before , but remember until you dont put your personal interest and do trading by following rules nothing will change
and success is not easy we must work-hard to achieve it
12) i am sure if you follow this rules you will see changes in your trading ,
if any experienced traders do have some points that will help traders please highlight it
13)But remember, never put your eggs in one basket, this way even if one of your investments is on a down trend, you can still recover the loss from another investment. This point by (nydiacaskey01)
Well, these are some well known tips that you shared from your own perspective. I would like to know how many of these tips do you follow when you trade. Also, the amount of losses you incurred when you didn't follow these tips and the substantial gains when you followed these tips. The comparison of such amounts can really boos t the confidence of our fellow traders. |

The issues that affect the market are many and most time it is very difficult to summarize all the information coming into the market and make an informed investments decision. I do used technical indicators to analyze the market before investing and we have many traders and investors that holds the views that we must used technical and fundamentals indicators in analyzing the market in other to be able to make an informed investments decision. I believe that candlestick formations and patterns contains information about both technical and fundamentals issues that came into the market. Should I continue using candlesticks formation in interpreting the market or something might happen happen that might suspend candlesticks formation information.
Analysing the market and doing the research is good but at the end of the day it is the strategy you use that gives you profitable trades. If you strategy is wrong then all of your research and analysis will go in vain but if your strategy is good then even wrong analysis could give you profits. Continue with what you are doing and if it earns you profits then you should be fine doing that but if not then try changing the strategy. |
