5981  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are investors still complaining? on: August 20, 2019, 10:55:34 AM
Answer is pretty obvious, investors can complain over two reasons, first is when they don`t make any profit, but they keep some of the money, and in worst case when they lose their investment totally. Did they invest in wrong project, wrong timing and investing on top is also a bad thing. There are many reasons why investors lose money in crypto.
I think all of us were in bad situation with wrong timing, or bad investment. Learn from mistakes and push forward, complaining or any kind of negativity will confuse you and you can just make more mistakes. Keep your head cool whatever happen!

Now its over 10k, and there were moments when bitcoin was over 11k in past months. While someone is getting ready to buy, bitcoin raised a lot, dropped and raised again. It`s good thing for all of you who are getting ready to buy that bull run still didn`t happen, if you don`t made your mind for buying maybe you will miss it.
The price moves high at its gonna be a risk to put in but somehow it is not too late to do it rather than to have regrets.
I'll never hesitate to take these chances cause it feels that the market will continue to move as we nearly touching the 4th quarter this year.

That`s why a buyer needs to have a plan, will he trade with bitcoins or just holdem. If you are buyer and you plan to hold it doesn`t matter when you are buying.
5983  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The next 50x !! on: August 19, 2019, 05:53:03 PM
If bitcoin hits 1 million, as some people are saying it will, it`s x100 from this price now. Ethereum at 10k is x50 from now, do you people think that bitcoin can cost 1 million and ethereum at least 10k? You only need to believe in bitcon and ethereum in long term and you will have your x50 and x100 coin, why to search more?
5984  Economy / Economics / Re: Can not believe 5 years ago you could of bought one whole bitcoin for this much! on: August 18, 2019, 11:11:09 AM
When I got my first BTC from Localbitcoins in January 2017, the exchange rates were still below $1,000 per coin. I don't remember the exact price, but I guess it was somewhere around $900. I paid a premium of 5%, so the end price was $950. I still remember the nervousness I felt while making the investment, but now I feel that I should have purchased more coins back then.

Wwll, that is the beauty or curse of Bitcoin, depends how you put it. Volatility, sonetines plays for you and sometimes against you. When I got into Bitcoin the price was around 600$. Of course, now I wish I would have bought more but I couldn't know how the situation will develope.

I sold my first bitcoin for $200. Life is good for me since I know for bitcoin, I`m here for a long time. I`m imagining what will happen in next 10 years, will we look back at this times and say how we could buy/sell bitcoin for just $10k?
I think I could save much more bitcoin than I have now. But I had great time with earning bitcoins and later spending them for things I like. This is a growing economy, don`t just hold, try to use some amount for something you like, help bitcoin economy to grow, learn others how to do the same, it`s how we got here and it`s how we can continue to grow.
5985  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If bnb overtakes eth on: August 17, 2019, 04:01:59 PM
Many people think that BNB can replace ETH. And that has happened that BNB does have an excellent development. And the increase in trading volumes is very high and this happens when many coins have decreased. But it is very difficult to replace ETH because ETH also continues to be the main choice as a platform.

Many people think that ethereum can be replaced, but it can`t. Ethereum have a strong team behind and they have excellent development. Bnb is exchange coin, and platform, it`s a good idea and they made nice progress this year, they are in the top 10, and they got there pretty fast if you ask me. Now they will need to stay there and prove they worth to be there.
5986  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: New Exchange: Should I trade? on: August 16, 2019, 03:05:50 PM
Hello everyone, I saw a new CFD trading platform for cryptocurrency. (www.mavsecure.com) I met a guy in TG and he referred me. So, how safe is to trade in CFD platforms? Is it profitable ?

Trade always at the exchange that has already known in the market. Avoid those trading platform that are not known yet like what you are asking for right now. It is still best and good to trade at the top 10 exchange at the coinmarketcap dude. Because it is good to trade with the platform that already proven and tested.

If you have fear from new things in crypto, you will always be late for the fun. Instead of running away from new try how to do a proper research, how to test it with some small amount of money, learning how to do that will help you a lot in future.
In crypto I learned that it`s not smart to follow masses! Do the opposite from what majority is doing and you will be very good. That can be applied on trading, when everyone is buying you sell, when everyone is selling you buy, it`s how some people make money in this fluctuations.
5987  Economy / Economics / Re: Advice on how best to protect your capital on: August 16, 2019, 08:48:12 AM
Personally I'd stay away from ICOs but if you really want to get involved then do the appropriate research and consider the money gone so you don't feel bad should things don't pan out well. Monitor the project closely so you don't end up a bagholder.

As for HYIPs, they're guaranteed to run away with your money. I suppose some people still need to get burned at least once to learn that lesson.
If everyone stay away from ICO, there is really lots of things that would suffer for it, and I have to be selfish a little here, there will be no campaigns again, no airdrop and no signature campaigns, so everything will just be empty like it never exist, although we have scam projects a lot in the market, but we cannot endeavor to stay away because it would really make cryptocurrency market a bit boring.

The best we can just do is what you have said, we should make some research and ensure that the project that we are investing in has real working product, and that the product has a working team that will continue to ensure the growth of the project and be creating awareness constantly for new investors to come in.

Many people got scammed by fake ICO`s, what is not a strange in my opinion, we know that many people don`t do any kind of research before they invest their money in new projects. I agree with you that people should be disappointed with ICO`s, they just need to do a better research about project before they invest money in them, or they wish to participate in their bounties.
We have so many stupid examples where people invested in ICO`s where team members having cartoon images, people invested in ICO`s that promise too much in return. Let`s be real, there are many fake and scam ICO`s, but also there are some very good and successful ones too.
5988  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: LTC halving , what to expect? on: August 15, 2019, 07:40:09 PM
maybe 1 year after halving the price of ltc will go back up and actually now is the right time to buy and sell it before halving or keep it strong

Maybe, or maybe not. We have just speculations about future price of litcoin. Fact is that halving cut reward for miners, with lower supply they will be in problem if price don`t rise. Probably in next months we will see some pools quitting litecoin mining, same thing Charlie Lee said in one of his tweets. It will take time for network to stabilize, and only after that price of litecoin will rise again, that will happen in the next period, that period can last months or entire year, but price will start to rise again. I think litecoin is worth to be waited, and I will wait for that.
5989  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Adoption In Your Country on: August 15, 2019, 08:37:57 AM
Serbia is a little country in South Europe. I think adoption in my country does not exist, there is nothing about that in news. What I saw in news related with bitcoin is some negative shit about some big scams in crypto, usually it`s a copy-paste report taken from some global news station.
In my country changes are slow. Majority of people still don`t know about bitcoin existence, so it`s naturally for me to believe that maybe my country will be far behind advanced countries again. When others adopt it and make infrastructure for that, my country will start thinking about adoption.
5990  Economy / Economics / Re: Binance Swirled into ‘KYC Leak’ Turmoil, Binance not Safu Anymore on: August 14, 2019, 06:11:44 PM
This disclosure KYC took place last year and some people have witnessed this for a long time. I think these are some of the ingredients that use these materials to make FUD lower.
We should be careful and keep the mentality to trade BNB now. Don't let FUD mess things up.

I don`t remember that Binance had that problem last year. They had problem with hack, but with kyc leaking not. Even this time they didn`t say much about it, except it`s a FUD and they will investigate it. Why would anyone bother to investigate fud? Someone even asked that on their twitter page but I don`t remember did they give any answers on that.
Binance is a huge company now, every huge company have problems with leaking. It`s happened before, it will happen again, don`t doubt in that. If you wish to stay protected, simply don`t share your personal info with anyone.
5991  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Scams are a global issue on: August 14, 2019, 10:47:07 AM
When dealing with Crypto, you must accept it with always having scammers around you. Because trading with Crypto is an anonymous transaction, this has the disadvantage that you will not get money back when you are scammed.
Also Crypto is not accepted in some countries so you will not be protected.

Just consider that scams happened before the rise of cryptocurrencies.
Anonymity is not the only fact that scams have become rampant in the sector. It is also the fact that people are naive and they believe scammers who claim that they can provide high returns without any work to be done from their side.

I believe he thinks that if you use fiat and someone scam you, you can report it to police, you can be insured in some other ways too. Scams existed long before crypto, it`s a fact, crypto is very different from fiat, scam schemes are more complicated, anonymity and possibility to scam people from anywhere makes it hard for police to track scammers.
Crypto scams are global issue indeed, and to fight against crypto scammers countries across the world will have to upgrade their technology and learn more about crypto itself if they want to catch crypto scammers.
5992  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you manage your profits in trading? on: August 13, 2019, 06:01:01 PM
Here is an expert blog. Maybe it will help you. It talks about:

What is Arbitrage?
Why Does It Happen?
Why Arbitrage Cryptocurrencies?
Types of Arbitrage

It`s like you are suggesting investing profit you previously made on some risky thing. Profit is profit, it`s money you made and it`s yours to spend it as you like. Suggestion someone what is smart to do with their own money is stupid in my opinion, even with close friends it`s hard to do something like that, you should really know someone good to be able to suggest something that`s suit their personality and wishes.
With profit I make I do many things, sometimes I reinvest it in the same thing, what was profitable once can be profitable second time again. Sometimes I send profit to a safe wallet for keeping in coin I think it`s good for that. Sometimes I just gamble it away, cause I like it!
5993  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is IEO Profitable than ICO's? on: August 13, 2019, 06:53:30 AM
For now I can say that IEOs are profitable and secured than ICOs. Also, the scamming activity here is minimised than that of ICOs.
Indeed, IEO is more secure than ICO where investors can buy directly the tokens that will be invested and make it as investment of their assets. But IEO done in small market in my opinion is also an issue to be aware of before investing, it is better to select IEO done in large market as in Binance.

IEO`s are more secured cause exchanges stand behind them. We think that exchanges evaluate project better than we can do, and in some way they vouch for them. One more advantage is that we can trade with tokens right after IEO, people can sell them right away if they want to.
Even thou IEO`s are more secured, I can`t agree that they are more profitable. ICO`s are still popular way for funding projects and ICO`s till have many supporters!
5994  Economy / Economics / Re: World economy, what do you think? on: August 12, 2019, 07:44:18 AM
Gonna crash big time. They've propped it up with QE making the biggest bubble known to man. When it bursts it gonna be a major shitshow.

For sure, world economy gonna crash big time and it might be the biggest crash ever the mankind have ever experienced.
Bitcoin and gold will play a vital role in this economic crisis and this time all the money will flow in bitcoin and gold.

The world’s two biggest economies are in war since March this year. Higher tariffs on both sides for products, currency manipulations, this economic war between US and China will escalate. It`s not the only trade war we currently have on global stage, other countries participate too. All in all that will benefit crypto in the long run, investors will search for safe haven and they will find bitcoin and other crypto assets.
Shitshow will happen, it`s the only way for people to learn. Only after some major shit, people will see all the benefits of the crypto, cause majority always learn things in a hard way.
5995  Economy / Economics / Re: Cashless Economy: Is Society ready for transformation? on: August 11, 2019, 05:53:13 PM
Back in 2015 I read in an article that Ecuador declared themselves as cashless currency economy. although I see the positive effect of going cashless there are also downside to this
and countries should consider it's citizens if they ever planned to go through this transformations. also in our current technology I doubt every society is ready for a cashless economy.

You are right about one thing, many countries are not ready for this transformation, they simply don`t have technology to do that, but do you really think about this as some problem for advanced countries? It`s a race, and like in every race there is no time for looking back, you just run as fast as you for that first place.
Cashless economy is the future, one day all countries will be cashless, question is when and what kind of economy we will have in that future, blockchain based economy or banking system will continue to rule the world like they do all this time?
5996  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin or LTC ? on: August 10, 2019, 06:24:56 PM
Both! I`m in crypto for a long time, and I choose both! Why to choose between this two coins when both are very good, which one is better we all know, bitcoin of course, but litecoin is the second place, right behind bitcoin, for me that will be forever. I trade with bitcoin and litecoin, with bitcoin much more, with litecoin I choose mid term trading cause ltc is making swings but it takes time to drop and rise, at least I wait for it longer so I can have higher profit.
5997  Economy / Speculation / Re: Analyst: Bitcoin below $ 10,000 is a gift! on: August 09, 2019, 07:29:01 PM
Bitcoin below 10 thousand dollars is a gift to anyone who believe in 1 million dollars for 1 btc. If you believe in that price in few years now its a gift for you to buy bitcoin, if you don`t believe then any price will be to high for you. Everything is about your perspective and your believes. People can say whatever they want, you will see many different news, but in the end each of us is making a decision, don`t forget that! You choose to buy or sell, to wait or to not wait, in what to believe or not!
I agree with statement that bitcoin below 10 thousand dollars is a gift! You can believe in that or not, it`s up to you!
5998  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: can exchange services sell my personal data? on: August 09, 2019, 08:44:55 AM
Anyone can sell your personal data, today that`s a huge business. When they do that you will not even know what happened, like in most cases we don`t know. Few days ago we saw news about leaking in Binance, year ago Facebook was accused for selling personal data and they fined with 5 billion dollars. They still operate, they are still in business collecting personal data and doing who knows what with that.
We get burned so many times, that`s why we need support decentralization and when ever we can to avoid KYC!
5999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you buy lottery online in bitcoin payment? on: August 08, 2019, 09:31:11 PM
Maybe I'm an impractical person, but it seems to me that for this period using bitcoin for shopping or for gambling is simply thoughtless.  I believe that by saving bitcoin for a long period, I can get quite a big profit.  And for gambling, you can use other coins, including the Throne, as well as other altcoins.

Why you assume that you will lose your money before you even started with gambling? And what`s the difference what coin you use if you are spending money, money that you can spend for buying more bitcoins? If you think about saving bitcoin it`s ok, but for bitcoin to grow people need to use it, if everyone holds what can happen with bitcoin in next couple years?
What you are suggesting is ok just cause transaction fees can be high when you send bitcoins, sending alts can be much cheaper. And you shouldn`t gamble with last money in your wallet, spend some for buying and saving, the rest can be used for gambling or some other fun activity, end line is use bitcoins for something, it`s how we can make bitcoin economy to grow.
6000  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the best advice you ever heard in case of investments and all on: August 08, 2019, 04:46:13 PM
I don`t think there is the best advice in case of investments. Every advice can be good, there is many factors that should be considered when you make investment, time frame, bankroll, risks, insurance, what can possibly go wrong, etc. More factors you check out, more chances you have to make profitable investment.
And there is the other side, it`s your character. Are you brave enough to make investment, are you patient to wait for profit, can you handle the pressure!
