Heard about it only yesterday and it is most likely worthless I would have to say. All these Erc20 tokens wont amount to nothing and it isnt because they are useless it is because the devs make em, sell em, and eff off. Gl trying to create value like this.. Huh
62  Economy / Economics / Re: 1Bitcoin as a gift from someone on: November 14, 2017, 06:28:29 PM
If you be given a gift of 1BTC by someone and for you this amount is already something you did not expect. Will you sell your bitcoin right away and convert it into cash or just keep it for a better price to come or invest it or what?

Interesting question put forth and I think for me I would use a small amount of it as a gift or travel (0.1-0.2 BTC) then use the rest to speculate on and hope for the best. I mean I would dip a little into alts but holding most

of that in BTC should do well in a few years here. Patience is underrated in this game and it pays off tremendously if done correctly.
63  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO Participation? on: November 14, 2017, 06:24:59 PM
How many people actually participate in the ICO stage of new alts? It would appear the obvious answer is a lot, considering the amount of money they raise. But isn't better to wait for the first storm to pass and then jump on after all the hoopla?

I would do the second part of your statement now and wait it out and that isnt because all ICOs suck or are scammy. I think majority of them suck and if you dont mind losing a little profit off the top then going the safer route is probably best for you. I personally dont mind losing some profit if I know the project I invest in is no scam and that I can have an outcome based on legitimacy. This means more to me, its up to you to decide yours.
64  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SONM and Storj partnership on: November 14, 2017, 06:23:15 PM
Great news..could it only have come 6 months ago though? When all the drama and bs was happening with Storj....unlucky for some good for the ones who currently hold it now!
65  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin still reach $8k this year? on: November 14, 2017, 06:21:56 PM
With all the drama around 2x now over and BCC seeming to take away some of the market from BTC, is BTC still king and still set to rise to $7k this year? Thoughts?

I think BTC is still king of the hill and it was maybe a mini panic that BCC would actually take over moving forward. Now all it seems is that it was a P n D like most on here were predicting and a savage one at that. I think it

is still likely that BTC can eclipse 8k for this year although if it ended in the 7-8k range I wouldnt be upset either. This is on the cusp of knowing a ton of institutional money is coming in, it is gonna be a fun ride next year!
66  Economy / Speculation / Re: HOW LONG WILL BITCOIN CONTINUE TO FALL on: November 14, 2017, 06:20:29 PM
In the last one month, bitcoin have lost about $1,000 dollars in value. I understand that the fall is connected to the cancellation of Segwit2x hard fork. What I want to find answer to is how long the fall will continue and what would save it from the continuous fall. Your inputs would be appreciated.

Not really a fall more than it is a standard correction that was going to happen. I say going to because due to the fork there was an artificial buy pressure put in place but in turn creates an artificial buying price. Once things

fizzled out and went back to normal this was expected and I am not sure the correction is over. The most drastic part is over but I would say until bitcoin 5k it could still go down but I think the support at 5k is enough to not

let it go any lower than that. This is my opinion of course and I dont trade bitcoin everyday this is what I see happening before it takes another leg up.
67  Economy / Speculation / Re: Am I late ? on: November 14, 2017, 06:18:36 PM
I decide to buy 2 bitcoins with in this week.. Its valuable ? Am I late ? Waiting for your replies ?

Bitcoin is always valuable and you are late if you want 50,000% gains. But if you want some nominal gains or reasonable ones then no reason you are late for this. If you wanted say bitcoin 2x from now that should happen,

even a 5x could happen. Beyond that nobody really knows yet and any big predictions are all speculation given certain assumptions happen along the way.
68  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Speculation thread on: November 14, 2017, 06:14:35 PM
I see bitcoin being 10k+ in a years time if you meant price wise. If you meant market wise I see it being accepted as an international store of value with loads of institutional investors coming on board. I think this understanding of "backing" must change in the coming years because bitcoin will have zero backing and not much utility but this does not mean it isnt a good investment or store of value. As per your investment statement that is completely up to the trader because some may hold 10% BTC, others 50-60%, and others yet may hold 100%. That much is up to your style of trading that will determine how much you can handle.
69  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin has more than 21m supply on: November 14, 2017, 06:11:37 PM
I agree with you that these forks will ultimately fail because they are rooted in a place of greed but however I disagree with your title. Bitcoin will only have 21 million coins ever this is known, just because there are a lot of

forks upon it does not increase the supply to 63 million currently with more incoming. The total amount of bitcoin will always remain 21 million, this is not subject to change ever.
70  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fork? on: November 07, 2017, 07:21:49 PM
What is this Hardfork? Why is everyone afraid of it? Why do I hear people saying that we should sell out btc before fork?

Hardfork is the B2X hardfork right now. Everyone isnt afraid but rather if you have altcoins you will suffer tremendously. Should sell some btc prior to fork because after the fork it will likely trade lower than before and this is

an opportunity to seize.
71  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2140 consensus for 21M bitcoin? on: November 07, 2017, 07:20:44 PM
Granted this is under the assumption that computing power stays the same or does this take into account Moores law? Btw even if it does take into account Moores law what about the next 100 years+ of innovation? Surely

somewhere in there we invent a quicker and better way to mine bitcoins. I am taking a wild guess at it but I think we will end mining bitcoin sometime before 2100 comes around I am not sure when that would be though.
72  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is holding bitcoin Greedy? on: November 07, 2017, 07:18:46 PM
Most people now with the rise of bitcoin value, just want to hold bitcoin for as long as they can so that they can maximize their worth. But isn't it a little too greedy to just keep holding bitcoin?
We've all read that story in the school with the moral "Greed is a Curse".
So what if too much greed in bitcoin may backfire? What if, the hodlers end up with nothing?

It could happen for sure but that would have to mean that bitcoin stops providing value (which it likely wont) and that people stop putting tremendous value on it (which they likely wont). Given that hodlers think the value

is there all the time and this will not likely happen then you have a scenario where this wont change unless things plummet from here. The only way I can see most people not being hodlers is if their profit margin got cut big.
73  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Will Jump To USD $10,000 Dollars By 25 December on: November 07, 2017, 07:14:44 PM
I dont think we will see bitcoin 10k this year. You dont even know Satoshi identity so rest is impossible to know as well. You have a prophet of a mad man jk but seriously dont hold your breathe on any to come true.
74  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do people hate? on: November 06, 2017, 05:56:04 PM
I think because they learn not to love themselves then hate boils up inside of them. Then to feel less hate they must force their hate onto the world. You see this all the time in real life people getting irrate over the smallest

things and you know deep down it wasnt the small thing that upset this person it was whatever else that was boiled up inside. Sad but this is how some people are we can only try helping them.
75  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you have a gun? on: November 06, 2017, 05:33:36 PM
I dont have a gun but I have shot a gun...it is pretty fun to shoot but I wouldnt want a gun around my own house. I think it is pretty unsafe unless you are somebody who has extensive practice. A bat works just as fine lol
76  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: November 06, 2017, 05:31:47 PM
LOL good freaking luck doing that. Drugs have been a part of our society since the Greeks and the Romans and even before that. Since the beginning of time good luck trying to get rid of it you are fighting a losing war. That

is like trying to rid the world of prostitution it simply wont happen and people who try stop these things literally are morons.
77  Other / Off-topic / Re: punishment for rapists on: November 06, 2017, 05:23:48 PM
An eye for an eye is the right justice I feel like. Stick it in them and see if they dont feel destroyed their whole life moving forward. Dont kill them and put them out of their misery put them in further misery!
78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Airdrop News on: November 06, 2017, 05:16:44 PM
Can I join to an airdrop for earning money? For example if i have some tokens can i sell them for BTC?

Yes there are many airdrops you can earn from but not direct USD. Yes basically that you will get altcoins or tokens and you can in turn sell those for BTC which you can either cash out then or speculate on.
79  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would probably kill myself if I ever lost this bitcointalk account on: November 01, 2017, 07:07:27 PM
How do you only have 40 activity though....is the thing I really want to know. You could literally make an account today and have same activity before the year is up...I dont get the attachment.
80  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Let's hope Bitcoin forks a lot and fast on: November 01, 2017, 07:04:30 PM
Yes yes you want more forks but what's the use no exchange is going to list it only the shit exchanges have listed btg till now. Everyone surely likes the idea of free money but also notice the negative affects it is causing in long run to the whole market

It is free and smart money if you are in the correct spot and know what will happen before it does. There is a reason most traders lose and it is because they dont have the time or knowledge to pay attention to the markets,

the news, and participants inside of it. If everyone did all those the ratio for winning to losing would be different. For instance getting 1 btcgold may be good and all but if you lost more than that in btc value then it is null &

void point.
