I tough we are free to do whatever we want without violating rules.

There are a number of actions you can make that do not violate forum rules but is unethical and frowned upon by the community. This could get you tagged at worse or put on the ignore list of other members and limit your chances of ranking up.
It is very possible to give out merits without making a spectacle of it, while rewarding quality posters.

The market now needs natural and sustainable growth  not be subject to price manipulations and power tussles at the top level.
Price pumps from airdrops usually results in similar crashes after the fork is completed, if it was the sole cause of the changes in the price
5603  Economy / Economics / Re: Can a new crypto exchange take a place in the market? on: February 04, 2019, 05:19:49 PM
There is always space in any market for new entrants, its possible to break into the market, but you have to have a well laid down plan and a means to achieving that.
Starting an exchange would require funds, quailty website devs and marketing managers.

And like you mentioned, 2FA could add additional security. You have to make sure you don't lose your phone or something like that.

Precautions can be taken to prevent this, backing up your 2FA code would allow you access it on another device should you lose your phone or PC.
Authy automatically saves your profile and can be accessed using your email and password should you lose the original device.

They need to listen to numerous opinions and then make up there own mind.

Listening to only one source is likely to direct someone through a singular part, every enthusiast should read wide and listen to various contents.
Finding quality social pages and handles is difficult but after a while one would have had a decent compilation to choose from and use that to direct their actions.
5606  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Rewards and Treats on: February 02, 2019, 08:12:51 PM
A lot of people who got into bitcoin befire 2017 were rewarded either through Investments, bounties or receiving payment for services.
For others like myself who got in after the bubble, and without large capital earnings has been slow from bitcoin, but there has been a couple of altcoins which has been very rewarding.
5607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did you know? on: February 02, 2019, 07:51:42 PM
I did not know, and thats because all these are your assessments and conclusions and not facts which can be verified. There are a lot of things to be positive about, as an enthusiast always be open and willing ti learn more about what is truly ongoing.
5608  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mistakes need to avoid in day trading on: February 01, 2019, 05:59:39 PM
1.Don't trade based on your emotions,just concentrate on FOMO and FUD.

FOMO and FUD are reflections of emotions and how traders react to different situations and publications. FOMO and FUD also barely affects day traders, they are interested in short, quick changes in the value, and healthy market volatility.
5609  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Misuse of the quote button on: February 01, 2019, 05:15:31 PM
Reporting such posts is the best alternative, especially if it adds nothing of value to the thread. Users who misuse the quote feature or any other posting feature, or those who post multiple times in roll mostly do not hang around Meta.
Report the post and the moderators would handle it and clean up the thread.
5610  Economy / Speculation / Re: Seems to me Bitcoin is getting over the bear sh*t on: January 31, 2019, 08:58:17 PM
I have noticed over the years that as bitcoin matures as a currency it is more likely resists price manipulations. This is also evident in higher stability in the value which some call a stagnant market.
The bearish trend is not over yet, we would need an actual price surge above $5000 to entertain any discussions on that.
5611  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [LIST] Obtain Criptocurrencies without buying them on: January 31, 2019, 08:02:22 PM
Everything you listed is a waste of time, just get a real job in the real world and use that money to buy bitcoin.  Then you will be much better off and actually contribute something to society.

You are contributing if you offer your skills and services and demand pay in cryptocurrency, this is doing more for bitcoin than purchasing with fiat, if more employees demand payment in digital assets it would both cryptocurrency all over the world.
There are a handful of quality projects, bitcoin paying amd ICOs which are very profitable.
5612  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin At $3,000 Looks “Symmetrical” To $20,000 Top, Reversal Possible on: January 31, 2019, 06:03:48 PM
I hesitate on price speculations these days, especially short term predictions, the steady drop which began last November is still in effect, and the market is yet to recover.
I rather set longer term targets at this time
5613  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency lending business. on: January 31, 2019, 05:39:23 PM
It's a very new business model and it's too early to say anything about it.

Bitcoin lending between individuals here on the forum has lasted for quite a while and has only recently become less used.
Between businesses may not yet be much advanced, but the concept is similar, and some use it as a way of trading without capital.
5614  Economy / Economics / Re: R u consider rich holding crypto during hyper inflation on: January 31, 2019, 05:32:15 PM
This is based on the assumptions that bitcoin's price at the time of hypee inflation in a country remains stable or moves upwards against the US dollars which it is tied to.
You would equally be considered to be losing money should bitcoin drop with the national currency remaining the same. Both scenarios would not matter unless you convert.
5615  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is the evolution of the Bitcoin? on: January 29, 2019, 05:02:26 PM
Bitcointalk community is necessary for only technical questions, or ones which are subject to personal opinions.
Inquiries like these;
I want to know how Bitcoin came into existence
can easily be answered with a google search or a forum search.
As for
where it will be headed in the coming future. Please share your perspectives. Smiley
Global adoption should be in the future of the Bitcoin network. And the blockchain technology would be explored more in the future as more upstarts spring up.
5616  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Threats Bitcoin has survived from lindy effect on: January 29, 2019, 04:55:21 PM
This is the first time am learning about the Lindy effect, and there is a level of merit to its concept. People are wont to trust an idea or technology which has stood the test of time, only the very daring investors take the risk with an untested protocol.
Bitcoin has survived over the years, and is now garnering support from those earlier dismissed it
5617  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How much bitcoin has been made by ... ? on: January 29, 2019, 03:49:51 PM
I have to wonder how much bitcoin has been made by members of this site with the overshadowing of casino signatures. 

Members of the forum do not make bitcoins, a better word would be to earn bitcoins. There are a number of programs run on the forum by which users can earn bitcoins, and majority of the bitcoin paying signatures are sponsored by gambling sites.
Does anyone else approach advice from these people with a bit of apprehension?   
Some users find signatures distasteful, and have the option to change their profiles to not view other users signatures. Approach advise from anyone with apprehension.
5618  Economy / Economics / Re: Perfect example of why governments must hold Bitcoin on: January 28, 2019, 06:04:39 PM
He will need to convert to fiat at some point. And all cryptos are what 120B? This is nothing compared to world finances and needs.

Bitcoin dows give the holder a certain level of control over their wealth, and it is not impossible to convert without getting caught, especially if the holding address is not known.
Also the market cap is not fixed and and can grow, it can also drop further as well. There are downsides to every technology.
5619  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I wanted to know if there is a hodler right here? on: January 28, 2019, 05:59:55 PM
Being a hodler means you supporting the coin, didn't you?

Simply storing your assets does not always help it, except of it's some random project which has limited volume and would lose value with regular trades.
Projects which have utility as a means of transaction or to be used on a platform would not be much affected by trades. They expect the tokens or coins to be in high demand.
5620  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: On merchants not willing to accept crypto on: January 27, 2019, 06:23:14 PM
The idea of suggesting payments in bitcoins to retailers is practical if you are involved in direct trades and business, or an entrepreneur and both parties are involved in negotiations.
Regular individuals would have to approach management of organizations to accept cryptocurrency. This is difficult in countries with limited exposure to bitcoins and issues of legality.
