581  Economy / Economics / Re: What power does Traders have on the Bitcoin price ? on: June 07, 2017, 03:19:39 AM
Hi here !

So, the captitalization of BTC reached 40B $ , this is nice but not huge at all compared to FIAT currencies.

My question is : with such a "low" amount of money, does the traders have real power over the Bitcoin price ? I always heared about the natural inflation, simply more demand etc... But don't you think that if a lot of early investors with huge amount of BTC could gather and have control over its price ? Or they are simply slave of the system like every one of us ?

I'm waiting for your toughts  Grin
Bitcoin market is entirely different from altcoin market.Altcoins have small market cap and so it is easily manipulated by big whales.But bitcoin market has big market cap and it has investors world wide.Even the chinese could not manipulate bitcoin price as earlier.So its hard to take control over bitcoin price.

Agreed but in there own little ways traders then manipulate there investments depending on the timing to when would they sell it and when to buy. Probably there are also traders that invest in altcoins and yave at least a good profit because how trader can make a living. Finding things in low prices and sell it to the highest stockmarket.

Before it got the last correction, it reached almost $2,800 and that rise was filled with great dramatic events and media focus...right now it is already hovering to the 3K level and yet Bitcoin is doing it silently as if everybody is already expecting that it will soon breach that level and even beyond...it would not be difficult for Bitcoin to end up at 4K+ before 2017 ends.

Most of speculation also at the end of the year is it will reach 4k i would too but it would just reach at 3k and not as its stagnant price. It may stay at 2800k as its price and a lot of millionaires have now started to make there own campaign in btc. I think some of them are even hiring teams to make a project and give it there luck because many campaigns have emerged and you gotta need a lot of investments just for a project.
583  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which alt coin will gain most value in 2017? on: June 06, 2017, 04:19:41 AM
Which altcoin will have the maximum price increase  is not Most expensive coin.

This is something diferent So or you change your thread title or you change your thread question.

Agreed and so far i only tried 6 of them and recognize at least 15. Damn i cant more and more altcoins are spawning so fast in the forum.  But i think the logic there is which btc will be in the top 5 list of altcoins. Off course everyone can notice but it is our basis if a coin is successful or not. For me i still would go for ethereum because of its function together with ripple because someday people will have to need banks to convert it to a currency.
584  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buying bitcoin pain in the ass. Next to impossible. on: June 06, 2017, 03:41:09 AM
So many identity documents and other obstacles are required in order to buy into bitcoin with usd or euro and if you make a mistake you get your money seized with no chance of a return. Are there any methods or ways around this?

I feel your pain. I had to go through that with Coinbase. The alternative is to buy bitcoins directly from someone you know that can take your cash for them.

Well as the leading price in dollar I can say that that is just necessary to make that the bitcoin they'd be selling could still be accounted for and won't be lost over some offline wallet. Protocol because it is not easy too for them to just sell 1 Bitcoin without securing who you're dealer is. Plus this also makes bitcoin a legal trading. To avoid further violations.
585  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC near $3k on: June 06, 2017, 02:23:16 AM
Yap and most investors are just already multimillionaire who would want to expand there investments. And this is the millenia where everyone can access and mine a digital currency with the right technology and off course with the right strategy. And what's even amazing is you can be anonymous while earning large amount of money.
586  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN IS TRAVELING PLACES!!! on: June 06, 2017, 01:53:04 AM
I really hope so. Its only a matter of time by now
If they do this, we all are rich right now! Even the faucet users maybe?
LONG LIVE BITCOIN Cheesy

Yap but in my  country, it is always an issue if you have a business yet you don't pay taxes. We are third a world country so I guess if they government would a adopt it then they would make sure they could at least get some percentage of it. Even our national athletes have a tax imposed on their gold medals.
587  Economy / Services / Re: i will do anything for bitcoins on: June 05, 2017, 08:23:06 AM
tell me to do dom things ill do them like eat nasty foods something which is worth 1btc to you
How do eating nasty foods becomes anything for me to pay you for. I don't understand I should pay you for eating something, people pay for jobs they cannot do, I suggest you look for a decent job to get money rather than engaging in something like this, if I will pay then you must add value to me and what you suggest you are doing does in no way add any value whatsoever to me in any way I can think of.

I think he meant he will do anything just btc. He is very eager that whatever you would tell him, he will do it as long you will pay him btc.

My advice would be learn some skills in english speaking as most thread here are in english and widen your knowledge on btc read or even watch videos that could help you enlighten what is btc and try also showcasing what kind of food you will eat and also tell us your abilites and skills on what you are capable off.
588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think DOGECOIN is the future of Altcoins ? on: June 05, 2017, 08:11:42 AM
Dogecoin has been in serious decline on its development side.This has been ongoing for some time now. And things continue this way, it wouldn't last long as a serious coin.

doge needs new features, but this is not happening at the moment as there is no active development. And without development the network will organically wind down.



Yap and dogecoin probably has had the been in the market longer than ethereum and ripple i think? Dogecoin is gradually decreasing but i am still amazed with how many it has released and it had stayed long. My friend said he still have faith in dogecoin and he invested some money in it. I don't know he had seen or speculated but i just hope doge will have it.s comeback.

For the second game in a row the Cavs were dominated in the 3rd quarter by the Warriors which once again lead to their downfall and loss. LeBron's triple double wasn't enough for the Cavs to put up a fight in the 2nd half. Now they go back home 2 games down and need a win to get their momentum going and not fade out in games.

The warriors are always insurging in the 3rd and 4th quarter.hhmm.. Also both teams are exhausting there star players and  i think Lebron has been doing more work during game 2. Sure love and irving contributed in points but still the trio are still not working. They might at least need someone in there bench to step up and at least change the pace of the warriors so they won't end up swept.
590  Economy / Economics / Re: How bitcoin can be useful in developing nations like the African continent. on: June 05, 2017, 04:33:51 AM
Hey folks!

I'm new to the forum here. I've been watching with excitement lots of documentaries about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. As probably most of you here, I am completely fascinated by the wonders of Bitcoin and its potential use in paving a new path towards decentralization of the financial system. I live in Ethiopia (East Africa), second highest population in the continent with a large amount of people still considered unbanked (low to no access to financial institutions). Hence, I am seriously considering starting a bitcoin service in the country to try and alleviate some of these issues. I am therefore open to any engagement of productive discussions about Bitcoin and its benefits in developing nations. How can we implement Bitcoin systems here? Where do we begin? Who can we partner with? How to include the financially unincluded? How can local businesses thrive with Bitcoin? How can donations happen using Bitcoin? And all questions related to developing nations and Africa. Thank you all in advance for the active participation!
I think bitcoin will be helpful in the country of Africa in terms of growing their economy because I believe that bitcoins has a big impact in ones economy. Bitcoin will also helpful in giving a chance to unemployed person to have an alternative income.

I think it is good because it can also be counted as one of those none perishable good. You can store in a long time and if you need you can withdraw it then transact. I don't mean like good that is consumable but it is like a gold and if a country is in need they can just extract it then at least they can have easy money with out loaning to banks.

Was keen to invest in it in terms of security is very promising once with the increased security of exchange with decentralization funds, I will try to invest altcoin.

I like it.

Well i wanna also to compliment the great project team and just waiting for the token release. Has anyone of you already DL'd the wallet?
592  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if May 2017 marks the top? on: June 04, 2017, 05:07:40 AM
It's not impossible Bitcoin has been both the worst performing investment of a year and also the best performing investment of the year we know that their is a fork issue on the horizon and whether that creates uncertainty and price collapse is one possible outcome that would make May and June a good time to sell. But since that is a few months away its likely we will keep this trend into June maybe early July before that split issue pokes its ugly head out.

This times also marks a great change in btc including prices, advertisements, countries investing in it and it's fame. More and more people or businessmen rather are now trying to make something out of btc. Especially when the price hit 2800$ that is way to high to just ignore and businessmen wouldn't want to be late for this trade. This year also made many projects surface. And Eth also is having a high increase which many people are interested to invest in.
593  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I always lose all my tokens and btc on gambling~ on: June 04, 2017, 04:11:52 AM
I guess, gambling is not actually for me.
I kinda feel bad on all the tokens wasted on gambling but it's kinda my "when I'm bored" hobby.
Do you guys have any tips on how to not to lose all you tokens on gambling?

I also feel same like you, but i always coming back to gambling because i already lost much money on it and i want it back but it not works. I really hate myself that can't control my gambling habbit, actually i just lose all my coins that i receive from 1 month work.

For me it's ok to lose as long it was not the real money that i have invested in. When i am gambling online i use the money i earned and mostly i am circulating it on gambling sites. Not just for fun but to also experiment and try the gambling sites that i read in the community. Each in everyone of them has gigs and whats hard is the withdraw process. Cause i think some sites don't really have many team members and off course common problem the transaction delays. But other than those i like gambling and try new sites.
594  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Btc or Ltc? on: June 04, 2017, 02:19:51 AM
What about the ETH rocket?  Huh
ETH has made its move and it is a really risky proposition to enter the coin at this valuation,i would go for litecoin because i do expect that there is a rally left in the coin and since you have a limited budget i would suggest invest in litecoin as that is the under valued coin right now in the market.

ETH´s  price  is very high now, about LTC it looks a good option, but BTC could be better choise maybe.

Yap i dont mean to judge but as far as i can remember LTC has existed before ETH and eth is now more successful than ltc. i have had investments in ltc hoping for it's increase but i did not have some luck during the phase. Eth as i observed has been making a lot of headlines lately and i gotta say, more in more investors are accumulating eth coins. And i know someone who invested in ETH last year and he now is a millionaire in my country. SO yeah eth is better.
595  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are You Holding On To Your Bitcoin? on: June 04, 2017, 12:54:39 AM
honestly i am not happy of the price increase because i only have small amount of bitcoin and hoping that more price decrease instead i think below $1,700 because its more easy to buy than the present price that actually is really high price..
Well for other people they are happy that they are seeing he price increase because they are holding lots of bitcoin.. but for us who the same as mine that holding small amount expecting for the price low or to have a bitcoin in easy ways..

Well it's not really that you would buy 1 btc but you can buy bits of it until you could reach for 1 btc. Because most people here really cant afford buying 1 btc so they would settle for altcoins. And its not always buying all btc because some are earning directly a btc then that is what they are using to invest. Also im one of those guys who is hoping that the price of btc would increase more.
596  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me your predictions about Bitcoin on: June 03, 2017, 07:25:20 AM
My prediction 5 years again bitcoin will be used more than 15% of the world population, this is because some airlines companies, restaurants and hotels have been many and accept bitcoin.

In that time probably also a lot of altcoins are now accepted as another crypto that is the same with btc. Not just bitcoin is recognized and probably they would fight over advertisements on who's better in there platform and usage. Many coins may have just reached the 10b marketcap. And also most wealth are no stored in wallets and not just in banks and banks would now be minimal in terms of usage .
597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is betting a good choice for a newbie? on: June 03, 2017, 06:34:16 AM
betting is not good a choice .you can invest your bitcoin in a good project, we have many of them.by investing them wisely not on betting  or schemes.betting is game of luck,it is not good to start with as newbie

Seems a good idea that newbie needs to choose the better way of earning bitcoin or profit. If they need to or want to gamble, ask them first. But for me, it's worth to try those newbie to gamble but it will be better if they will only gamble with play money or with free trials so that if they lose, there's nothing to worry and feel sorry about it.

If experience would teach something, that would be on how person would accept a lost. Some people lose there minds if they lost or even stick to even more gambling that can lead to big debt. So everyone is really fit for gambling but that depends on how your perspective on gambling or even losing is. Controling the odds and betting on what really your guts would tell you and not just basing on just some pure luck.
598  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: CoinMarketcap Manipulating the Placement of your Altcoin using Low Volume on: June 03, 2017, 05:12:00 AM
For years CMK,
had set Low Volume trading under $10 in 24hrs trading

This means no matter how much your coin was worth , if the 24 hour trading volume was below $10 ,
your coin was removed from the standard listing and placed 3 or 4 pages from the 1st page in a Low Volume Section, where you were least likely to be seen.

No one complained about this as it had been a set standard of CMK.

Then ~1 Month ago with absolutely no notice to the public ,
CMK, quietly switched it to anything under $100 per 24 hours moved to Low Volume decreasing their visibility.

Again , No one complained.

Now today less than ~ month from the last change
Low Volume trading is anything under $500 in 24 hrs trading
 

This gives a Direct Marketing Advantage to coins on Exchanges like Poloniex & Bitterex where the 24hours volume is Faked on a Daily Basis.
You want proof of this look at the recent list of coins Poloniex is delisting on May 2nd, almost all had 24hrs trading volumes over 100 Thousand Dollars.
Those Numbers were obviously Faked, to increase the price before the exchange dumped them, a key telling point is that these delisted coin's trading volume a month after the delisting will be lucky to see $100 per day much less 100s of thousands.

So Now CMK has sold out the Altcoin communities , to favor the coins hosting on the exchanges faking trading volume.

As I see it , our only choices , if CMK persists in this Blatant Manipulation & Falsifications of our actual values in favor of selected cheating exchanges.

We should all pull all advertisement from CMK,
and start a search for a Reliable Marketcap reporting site and begin promoting the honest site over CMK that is free of Poloniex's manipulations.

For those feeling a larger financial impact from these new false manipulations
May want to start an Collusion/Antitrust lawsuit against CMK & Poloniex, if anyone wants to spearhead that, this is the forum to announce it.


 Cool

Honestly your review for me is eye opening. I know that sites are not really trustable when it comes to the price because i compared them and each in everyone of them has different prices and each time they are not synchronized in prices. Poloniex bittrex CMK and preev. These sites are whats popular to me and it's hard to see any of there similarities in terms of prices. But only poloniex and bittrex has had issues during the btc pump and i assume a lot were sold so they were doing some maintainance.
599  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China’s official newspaper People’s Daily says Bitcoin is digital gold on: June 03, 2017, 04:01:37 AM
Last Friday, China’s official newspaper People’s Daily released an article Bitcoin, a New Form of Digital Gold by Yang Wang. And in an interview, Yang says that after talking with people from the central bank, he believes that the government will define btc as commodity or futures. It is in conflict with the RMB system. And when the PBOC released its own digital currency, most cryptocurrencies would be obsoleted and bitcoin or blockchain startups will move to mobile payment.
http://news.8btc.com/chinas-official-newspaper-peoples-daily-defines-bitcoin-as-digital-gold
If it becomes a reality then this news will be able to help the development of bitcoin in china country, we know that china is country with biggest population in world. Of course this could have a good impact on bitcoin in the world market. The increasing acceptance of bitcoin in a country will make the development in other countries improve.

They can now also maintain there own wealth in the digital world. Because when the day comes that all countries recognized cryptocurrency, most currency would now be in digital and you cant now really count anyone's networth once it is now in an outsource wallet. The net worth might be indicated but the hidden digital goods won't be counted or revealed. All countries has it's own convertion of money and it's up them now to adopt it in there own.
600  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum future is Bright on: June 02, 2017, 02:51:44 PM
After some month I show that ether only 10 dollars but now a day its grow up to 200 dollars. I think on day ether become like bitcoin and its become a master cryptocurrency.
I think it has a good chance of being the future of blockchain technology. Many of the innovations used in the Ethereum blockchain are being replicated and improved by other blockchains and founders.

 I think the ETH has been accepted widely with more and more support form ICOs. Also ,the price of the ETH has been double and double. Not only because the ETH is basic technology of Smart Contrast, but also ETH is the basic currency in the blockchain world. The only thing wo shoud do is holding the ETH and waiting it to pump.

It also term as the most successful ICO's that has been lunch by anyother altcoin. Its price really has a good increase rate and is becoming close to btc in the marketcap. Altough thats not the main issue but still ethereum projects had lot of functions and it is only a matter of time before it can par with btc in the marketcap only. Because even if btc would go down in the increase cap it will still be famous because it pioneered the start of cryptocurrency.
