The high fee charges is true of Hitbtc. This reduction now should be a good development. Expectedly, it should drag aggrieved clients back to the exchange. I have a Hitbtc account and I only use it when it's unavoidable - if the coin of choice I want isn't listed on any other exchange. And I haven't used that account for almost a year now. Perhaps I will have to revisit that account to see for myself how things are at the exchange.

It's obvious that it's for the last purpose - convenience. There's nothing connecting the project to Binance. Otherwise the announcement would come from a Binance handle. Besides, the nonchalant attitude of OP here towards response to questions isn't even doing the project any good.

I observed two things on the OP:

1. There is no specific Facebook bounty for individual hunters according to the number of friends they have. Everybody going to earn the same stakes?
2. Why are the email addresses of participants not hidden? You want life to be spammed out of your participants by those who will steal these email addresses?

The overall thing that makes Bitcoin (or any item/services) valuable is DEMAND. Let's not forget that Bitcoin didn't become valuable overnight because of its limited 21million supply. No! It didn't happen that way. Otherwise from the beginning of its creation it wouldn't have been sold at less than $1 or the Pizza dude wouldn't have given out his 10,000btc just to eat 2pizzas. So, this goes beyond total supply or decentralization. It's the community demand that keeps price of Bitcoin up.

Or how many here will still be alive 41years from now  Easy with life, mehn!

2021 is a long time in the crypto space. Sadly, I don't think ETH can ever get to that price. Honestly, I don't even see it erasing its current ATH, let alone getting to $4,000. It looks unattainable with the monopoly of ERC smart contract broken by Waves and other platforms that also allows for smart contracts. I won't even encourage anyone to invest in ETH at this moment. Wait, until price crashes below $50 to buy the dip.

No coin till date has over performed its 2017 price. None, including Bitcoin. 2017 was a glorious era for this industry. On the hindsight, I am sure you too would've sold all your Bitcoin holdings for Fiat because even the mighty Bitcoin took a great fall to as low as $3,000. However, there are greater and interesting days ahead for this industry with daily happenings pointing towards that direction of mass adoption.

Quite correct that Binance coin is dumping. From its $40+ ATH to below $28 now, it's depressing to say the least. However, when you compare the strength of the two exchanges you will have to pitch your tent with Binance. Binance parades an array of meaningful coins and more traders trust in its security more than any other exchange. That can inform why traders believe any IEO on Binance is a great opportunity to have ROI.

This Maxim - He who pays the Piper calls the tune- is apt in the whale scenario and control of the market. Whether we like (believe) it or not, big money controls the market. Besides all that, it's advisable to learn the necessary skills for any business one wants to get into before venturing into it. OP may want to learn trading skill set to survive in the business.

This is even a tell sign that something fishy is about to happen. I think it's advisable to avoid any site offering an email account without a "recovery email" to it. This is always easy come, easy go.

To be honest, I don't think the real Satoshi would want to reveal his identity. He didn't reveal it when Bitcoin value was next to nothing. What makes you think he will now that people know what his worth is? If he does reveal himself, he will be dead before long. People see him walk pass and imagine a money bag walking. 1,000,000 units of Bitcoin at current price is no joke. That kind of imagination will surely expose his life to danger. Again, whether the PK to the 1million btc is lost or not there is never ever going to be the 21million total supply in circulation. Some holders have also lost access to their PK too.

No time is too late to say welcome and to that I say welcome to the crypto world. However, besides all that you're going to read here as suggestions, remember that none should serve as financial advice. In furtherance, I think it would've helped more if you told us how much this money you received is so that the traders here can suggest to you areas of investment you can go into to increase your holding and whether it is worth selling off and rebuying at a later time.

I think it's this simple - He who fails to plan, plans to fail. How do you set out on a journey without having a cut clear vision of where you are going to. The bottom line is that most traders think that trading is child's play and shouldn't be taken seriously. Trading is a real business and should be accorded that respect.

Every trader has experienced this, I can tell you that. I once sold a coin for $3 only for the coin to spike to $30+ within a month. I nearly died of regret. Till today I still remember that incident and the coin still hasn't gone down since then. But what can regret do for anyone, except to cause more regret? It doesn't solve the mistake or impulse of early sell off. Rather we should learn a lesson from it and move on. Now I predetermine my TP region even before buying a coin. I set the TP and allow it trigger even if it takes more time than necessary.

Of course, it's really difficult to give a cut clear answer on this since man in insatiable in nature. Greed will always be there to want more. I rely on the advice of Warren Buffet on this - take profit when people are rushing in to buy. Whenever you're in profit and you see that spike in your favour, that's when to take profit to safety.

I don't think so. ETH is overrated and that false showing is beginning to tell on it with various smart contracts in place now. ICO scams of 2017 also didn't help it as many victims of ICO scams didn't make good reviews of ETH. Many have abandoned that contract for new ones. I don't think ETH will ever get back to its ATH.

2) Member: 30 000 Satoshi
3) Full Member: 40 000 Satoshi
4) Sr. Member: 50 000 Satoshi
5) Hero / Legendary: 60 000 Satoshi

OP, why did you not put the payment in easily understood btc payment? Oh, hold on. It's because the payment is a joke right? Let me break it down for those who don't understand it -

1) Jr. Member: 20 000 Satoshi - $1.96
2) Member: 30 000 Satoshi - $2.96
3) Full Member: 40 000 Satoshi - $3.96
4) Sr. Member: 50 000 Satoshi - $4.96
5) Hero / Legendary: 60 000 Satoshi -$5.96

In my country, Nigeria, there isn't much of an adoption at the moment. There are just a few shops trying to accept payments in Bitcoin. However, there are various seminars and lecturers going on about Bitcoin with private individuals trying to raise awareness on this. The government is nonchalant about cryptocurrency. I guess this is even to the advantage of those of us who are involved in cryptocurrency because government being aware and stepping in means new legislation coming in and this can hamper the growth for us here.

First off: This is a mere wishful thinking. It's even difficult to mistakenly send someone 1btc let alone the humongous amount you mentioned. Besides, if that scenario you painted happens it will only point to the fact that the hacker has a relationship with the owner of the staked address here. It can't be a mere coincidence. And if that be the case that means the hacker is, after all, not smart. To cap it all up - A good name is better than illegal riches. Peace of mind is prime to good health.

As much as I am a firm supporter of Bitcoin and by extension cryptocurrency, I think your argument is skewed a bit. I don't want Bitcoin to be banned but then the law is law. The law is the government. The government is the law. The government, expectedly, thinks for the generality of the people. Why do you think the US and Donald Trump is coercing Iran and N.Korea to ensure that they denuclearize? Shouldn't the US have left them alone since it's their properties too and they have a right to own them? Long story short, I don't think it's a crime for government to ban anything it doesn't welcome, whether personal property or not.
