I use bitcoin because I think bitcoin very potential to me, in bitcoin I can get income is large enough, and can increase the needs of my life.
In the bitcoin also I can do inveatasi for the long term that will deliver results as bitcoin has value that I think audah good enough, just in needed patience and calculation right in order to get advantage of investment in bitcoin. Of course the main reason to use bitcoin because it is profitable, if only for transactions of course banks or paypal is popular and safe, everyone hopes to have bitcoin because someday bitcoin can make us rich.

Having an understanding of how investing and trading works is key to making a successful and diverse portfolio, there is absolutely nothing wrong with looking at bitcoin prices every minute or five minutes especially if your into the buying and selling process to make a profit based on the selling rates at various junctures the very volatility of bitcoins is what makes this process quite exciting .The key here is to remember that prices will go up and down or down down down until they start gong up up up again , in layman terms its important to know when to hold and when to sell hence the importance of educating ourselves about financing and economics in general .

In economy there is a saying for the 'buying power' as we called it for this ecosystem 'the whales'. they are setting the rules for playing even the game is playing. Everything can change if they loose the control power. This is not easy in this ecosystem but again it is the same story, the manipulation, if you have a big share you got the power for control the fluctuations direction. It's kind obvious, i mean, it happens before, down more than 60%, people who just dig a little bit can realise that this is total normal

Yes, that would be an obviously insane and foolish thing to do. Even if the volatility was greatly reduced, it would still be a foolish decision - there is far too much regulatory uncertainty to commit to that as a strategy, and anyone who says otherwise its being intentionally ignorant. That said, its not bad to hold a substantial sum, but to hold everything in any single investment would be crazy. Only a greedy individual would turn of his money into something as volatile as Bitcoin. It is highly risky.

For this year there is so many negative suggestions regarding bitcoin, most of them say this year will end up the year for ether. ETH will increase a lot but now it is decreasing, each people has their own investing plan, with that plan we all have to set a buying and exit point on our investments, this is very important. At the end NO I won't invest in bitcoin for this year. I think the time is passing where you will be able to pick up cheap coins as the huge dip we just had looks like it is finishing, but if you can grab bitcoin under $10,000 then I would say it is a good investment as in 2018 it will only go up.

I've stopped asking myself this when I gamble. I used to spend huge portions of my days playing roleplaying games (pen and paper, dice) in my teens, and then for a period in early twenties drowned my waking hours with boardgame-style games. They were fun, very fun. Good that I slept so little so I still spent enough time working but still a lot of years down the drain. But the risk that comes with gambling is something different entirely. I'm prone to lapses in judgment and self control but generally can keep myself from losing too much.

Gambling in any form is consider to be illegal. But since cryptos are not regulated by any government agency it is free from any accusations with regards to legality issues. Bitcoin has been use to a lot of gambling site here but none of them were restricted by the government and as long as bitcoin is decentralized no reason for it to consider illegal. With the way, so many gambling sites signature campaign has been going in this forum you should have already gotten your answer. And moreover, and the good thing about bitcoin gambling is that no authority can question this actions because of the decentralized nature of bitcoin. And again, user information are highly protected.

It will be nice if people are explain the worst first when they try to do something risky but eventually the decision is made by himself since the gambler already mature and rational enough to think the best for his life.
It's always be a circle of life because gambling always exist and attract every people in this world except you're live in the "jungle"

It really doesn't affect my gambling game because my mom is not disproving my gambing game. In fact whenever I won a pot, my mom and dad are very happy. So I think that it is healthy for me to gamble. Although sometimes I wins a lot, sometimes I don't. So it is just a self regulation.

There is no profit to secure right now because there are only losses! Lol. In the previous month wherein there are lots of profits, I wasn't able to secure any because I'm a long term trader. I don't care of the current prices whether there are profits and/or losses. I will sell my coins on a target date with the target price. I have never taken profits out from the crypto market. If you believe the market is going to make you increase your wealth, why not leave it where it's more profitable?

You can throw a pair of MA and on the daily chart you can immediately see that bitcoin should have dropped to 6K dollars. As usual there are only two options, either a breakdown down and a complete collapse of the coin, or an ending movement and endless growth. And since only in 2018 there has come the era of the crypto-coins, it will not collapse. I do not understand that you are breaking your head. Yeah you just have to play smart or be outsmarted. I'm still really happy with this prices. Are more reasonable according to what blockchain has achieved so far. Not that there's a formula for that but what has blockchain achieved in the average joe mind? "hey get rich quick" that's all they think when they hear about crypto, and that mentality is what whales love to play with.

As of this writing 1 Bitcoin equals to $6,340. I thought that the $8,000 support line will hold but it did not. As i said before with my previous post if the $8,000 support line is broken I think the price will fall around the $4,000 - $5,000 area. As of now I am waiting because I will be buying again on the $4,000 price range. I hope this would not happen but if $4,000 support line is broken we can expect a $2,000 $3,000 price.

I am trying hard to stay away from charts. The more you look at charts at a time like this you are likely to panic sell . So do something else till the bear market is over. I think the di might end soon cause now we are approaching $5k. I believe many institutional players will buy around that region . $5k is a huge psychological level breaking that would mean we will see yet another huge dip , in my opinion.

The question is how much did you put into each coin? Are all of them divided equally or some coins got more share than the others? Because in your portfolio, there are some just hyped coins and only few that has the great potential so I hope you did that. Among the rest are the verges and waves. You definitely will have enough for the first time.

I also think ETH can reach to 0.2 BTC/ETH but it'll take really long. Maybe next year at least. Maybe ETH price can increase to 2000 - 3000 or maybe even more in this year but BTC price also increases as well so the price or pairing ETH/BTC only can reach to 0.2 BTC/ETH when Bitcoin stable for a long time while ETH pice keep increasing quickly. I still remember last year the price of ETH was 0.1 BTC but it dumped really quickly to 0.04 BTC and it take months to rise back to 0.1 BTC/ETH so I think to double the price it'll take really long time. I think Ethereum would definitely touch $2000 in a couple of months time. As the price of bitcoin is coming down, a lot of investors are buying Etherum. At present, it is the best possible alternative for investment.

It's automatic for anyone who has various coins either if it's for long term or short term. I do it 4 times a day and it's just very quick so it's not a very time-consuming routine for everyday. From my experience, I can surely say that it's quite unproductive to be obsessed with coin price. I'm still checking the price every often. It has effects on my emotions but not on my decision because I somehow have an expected value of the coin in my mind. I wonder it's good habit for traders, but I'm sure it's better for hodlers. Not at all. If you set a plan to hold your altcoin for long-time goal.. You don't need to do that.

Nope, there is NO Litecoin fork. It's a scam, don't fall for it. Check what Charlie Lee has to say about it: https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/960197866546282496 Well litecoin is an established coin and I am sure it will rech $1,000. The big question is how long it will take for litecoin to reach that price. If you check the price movement it is upwards but in a small rise. Possibly it make take years for litecoin to reach that price. Yes, you are right in the short period it is not possible to reach the 1000$ mark. When compared to Bitcoin, Litecoin price went up very quickly and has gained a profit more than 1400% in the last pump. So it might take another two years to reach 1000$ mark. Have you read the litecoin fork now in the announcement page it's going to happen this February 19 you notive litecoin price is going up slowly but with bitcoin's price going down it is not showing better get a hold of litecoin they are giving 10 times of that litecoin fork.

Staking is just like depositing your money on bank. The real staking coin is only Dash, bitsend, zero coin, and another staking coin. Dont fall for coin which called their system is staking coin but in fact they are ponzi scheme. Another good staking coin will be launch is EON from exscudo and aurora token from idex / aura lab. It pumped really hard today to 9475 satoshi,now back to 7400. The normal price range for Pivx is aroud 8200-8600 sat. I think its a good privacy coin, dont see it losing its value. Im just going to leave my coins in the stake, i bought them at around 7000 anyway.

If BTC doenst represent us something new, to my thoughts, ETH can reach its marketcap. One of the main indicators of it - the most of ICO-s are going on ETH now. As soon as Lighting is introduced into bitcoin it will fly to the Moon and no coin will catch up with it. Even ETH can not catch up with bitcoin despite the fact that now it is technologically better than bitcoin. Sorry, but where can I find more about Lighting? It feels interesting, and I want to know more about this Lighting. Anyway, I agree that currently ETH is technologically better than bitcoin, and look stable in the market, but I do believe Bitcoin will still be crowned king of cryptocurrency. People more familiar with bitcoin, and its' value may affects most (if we cannot say all) altcoins.

I will wait for some more years  because i know that bitcoin has a very good and bright future and hope that after some years the price of bitcoin will be so much high and will give me a good profit that will really too much helpful for me in controlling my financial problems. After all theres nothing to worry about ,bitcoins will bounce back and possible to have a new ATH price .Hold your bitcoins and keep safe your private keys. I was torn between deciding if I am going to hold or sell all of it. In the end, I decided that I’ll divide it and I have converted some in to fiat money. In case the split bring unlikely happenings. I still have cash and I still have bitcoin. Understanding the coin is vital as it can help us in making accurate predictions about the future price. In trading, it is the skill that leads the trader to success.

Are you crazy?  Because in nvesting all money is very risky because they have possibility the price of the coin you bought decrease or die so your money will die.  Yes we said that three coins is a potential coin brcause the price is very high and many people love these coins.  Better to invest only you can afford to lose incase the price in decrease you have other money. That too risky I think because make investment in cryptocurrency just speculation and the fluktuasion of crypto so high.

In my opinion make invest just by maximum 50% of all saving is much better and other 50% use to make invest in other asset like in stock or gold. But if you have skill enough and have more knowledge to reduce the risk that will be ok, so make investment actually depend on the your strategy to reduce the risk.
