61  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think the whales are manipulating the markets on: July 04, 2018, 07:31:20 AM
I know that the whales can manipulate the market but for me, it doesn't make me think that whales are manipulating the market because the market is still being driven by the law of supply and demand and that is the main reason why the market is moving and not purely because of the whales because if the whales are manipulating the market that much then people will abandon that market.
I do agree stable prices will not give much profit but risk is also with too much movement in prices. Too much volatility in the prices is sometimes not so good as people are unable to make correct moves for getting the profit. Only experience traders can benefit from here.
62  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Schools Are Officially Accepting Bitcoin for Tuition on: July 04, 2018, 06:50:05 AM
Universities are embracing accepting bitcoin for tuition, with Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Switzerland the latest school to adopt. If anything, it's another clear sign the cryptocurrency is here to stay.
https://futurism.com/schools-accepting-bitcoin-tuition/
Even so... Bitcoin has been used to buy homes, and countries like Venezuela and Vietnam are beginning to truly embrace the currency. Now, certain universities are adopting the payment method of bitcoin for tuition, albeit with a few caveats.
This is good news for Cryptocurancy, especially for Bitcoin holders, the University accepts Bitcoin for tuition, that means Bitcoin is increasingly accepted in society. and it is a positive thing to attract many Bitcoin users, so Bitcoin can fly again.

It is really good to hear that bitcoin is being accepted in schools and educational institutes.  In my country, no one can even think of Bitcoins usage in schools or even as mode of payment. Almost everyone here is using bitcoin only for trading purpose.

This thread has many opinions: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3215998.0

Basically no one knows for sure, but it's related to supply and demand, FUD, market manipulation, policy implementation, etc. Everything and anything at times!
Yeah, and the thing here is that even though a lot of people keep saying demand and supply which is the normal economical stuff we all know, but what we really need to know is what drives this? Certainly, we cannot say usage, because virtually everyone is investing and the percentage of people really using bitcoin as a currency is low, and to me, presently, it is just all about the whales and traders doing their thing and nothing else.
64  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple new partnership on: June 21, 2018, 06:44:03 AM
Banking group Santander will be partnering with Ripple to release an international money transfer app using Ripple’s Blockchain xCurrent and RippleNet platforms, Business Insider reports today, March 24

 "source : https://cointelegraph.com/news/santander-well-launch-intl-payment-app-with-ripple-this-spring-if-no-one-beats-us-to-it"

In your opinion is this good for ripple ??
It’s good for ripple company and not for the XRP token though. Because Santander has agreed to use ripple blockchain solutions called Xcurrent and RippleNet. So, these partnerships will surely help company ripple to expand its ground in the world and expand, but I don’t think this has anything to do with ripple’s crypto currency called XRP as there is no mention that they will be using Xrapid product for cross border transactions. Though I wish that they would use Xrapid.
65  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling is portrayed negatively almost everywhere? on: June 11, 2018, 05:06:04 PM
maybe we can read on the news or watching television that said people become stress because of gambling, some of them kill themselves because they cannot pay the money that they borrowed from someone because he is losing much money on gambling. but this is not just for gambling, I mean this could happen with the other things too. but gambling has been a bad habit that has a negative comment and many people try to avoid from the gambling itself.
There are only a few cases where the gambling has been positive but in most cases all news concerning gambling have been negative so far with people losing their homes and losing their entire fortune.
It will happen because the end of gambling is always worst and a gambler goes in such debts that he even suicide or become criminal to pay his debts. Now you can understand why gambling is portrayed negatively everywhere in the world. Bad thing has bad consequences and the world is not in favor of such bad thing. In no society gambling is said to be good.

No doubt gambling has worst ends than the person can think off and almost all of the gamblers are aware of this fact but still they are not willing to leave gambling for good. They just have the mindset that we can earn a lot of money from this gambling and one day will become rich which also is wrong because they didn’t have heard the stories of deadly ends of gambling.
No excuses for bad thing that if you do this and that then there is no problem. Bad is bad and our thoughts and statements can never that thing credible in society. Almost every country thinks that gambling is bad thing and that’s why many countries do not allow gambling openly. There are no casinos and other places for gambling and my country is one of them.
66  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: June 11, 2018, 03:01:00 PM
I can control the desire to gamble and even though for example when I have money but I have no mood to gamble then I won't gamble at that time. Moreover, I do gamble only with small part of my money and if I lost it, I will stop instead of chasing it with my other money.
That's a good control of yourself and not everyone can do it. Once they lost or win they can't keep theirself away from gambling. Eventhough after withdrawal, they will say, okay i'm going to rest in gambling but the fact is they cant so they will make a depo in a few hours or days again and again.
I also have the courage to control that. In the start when I start the gambling I was on there daily for some time but after that I thought that it is also taking the time of my work and if I continued like that then I will not be able to do my work well. Then I did not given much time to gambling and when there are more time then I do not go to any casino but focus on my work.
As long as you were able to control yourself in gambling, you will be fine or the risk will be lower.
Gambling is a big distraction in your job if you are not doing it responsibly, worst case is that it could be a reason that you might lose your job.
This is the right way of controlling yourself. Don’t be addicted of gambling because then if you do not have money you will do some illegal thing to make money for your gambling addiction. If you have money and want to gamble, fix a limit for your gambling and never accede that limit otherwise you will lose all your money. If you win leave the table at once.
67  Economy / Speculation / Re: Patience is all we need on: June 11, 2018, 02:23:55 PM
Actually, it is not very few number of noobs in cryptocurrency business that comprehend the level at which patience is required and important in the business. It may be a cliché, but there is truth behind the line “Patience is the virtue”, especially in business. Running a business is not for the faint of heart, and not for the impatient either. Even if you have a great product or service, great process, and great employees, your business will require you to stay committed for the long-term. I got a few coins couple of weeks back, which I chose to hold while it was plunging however I continue holding with zero dread and just absolute patience. My advice to my colleagues is all you need is buy into coins with good potential like bitcoin and relax even while it’s at dip. Presently, i’m In over 30% profit in all.

This is absolutely right I  also believe that patience is the key to success for everything. In bitcoin you do need to have patience earn much profit, you'll have to buy at a low amount and all you have to do is to wait for it to go high.
Patience and courage to bear the loss in mandatory in cryptocurrency business. Emotional people cannot invest in bitcoin and if they invest they will lose their money because making money from crypto investment is not easy and it will take long time. Holding bitcoin for long time needs patience. We know that the early investors who hold their coins for years are now millionaires.
68  Economy / Speculation / Re: how low can it go on: June 11, 2018, 12:41:13 PM
This is actually fluctuation occur in cryptocurrency.Because no fake or false news is came.Who know the price of bitcoin will reach 9000$ by tomorrow.This is unique features of bitcoin against cryptocurrency and altcoin.Finally,bitcoin fluctuation is temporary one  .
Now the price is normal and the growth and corrections are according to investment cap. I do not expect any big pump and dump in the price in the near future. This is good for new investors. I do not need any unnatural jumps like the one in the previous year. if bitcoin increases gradually but regularly more and more people will invest their money in it.
69  Economy / Speculation / Re: Revolution of the Digital Economy: Bitcoin, Ethereum and Others... on: June 11, 2018, 12:13:41 PM
I truly believe cryptocurrencies and blockchain as emerging economic instruments and technologies are far beyond what speculations alone can handle or dictate, there's more to this innovation, and clearly, after nearly a decade we are still yet to recover from the huge rift caused by bitcoin; and now, more disruptive subsequent technologies that follow are even more daunting.


But with Bitcoin and Ethereum showing two distinct timelines in how to handle decentralised assets, which one would you consider as having more valuable penetrating economic potential with respect to mainstream adoption?


Share your views. And don't forget to vote on the poll above.
World is turning towards digital currency and blockchain plays vital role in this regard. When the world comes to know about this technology they will fully understand the importance of bitcoin, Ethereum and other Altcoin. From barter system we reached to digital currency and the future is that of online currency. Just take a little more time to hold the world.
70  Economy / Speculation / Re: 1 BTC = $7,992.71 should i buy and wait or on: June 09, 2018, 07:22:26 AM
1 BTC = $7,992.71 is it now the right time for a person to buy bitcoins and keep to earn more profits OR i still have to hold?

Asking for investment advice from random strangers on the internet is a mistake. You don't know why they are giving you those answers and you don't know if their answers are any good.

In general, if you don't know what to do, then you should avoid investing until you do know what to do. In other words, get out now before you make a big mistake and try again later.

Simple! I wonder what people think anyway when they want to invest. This is a very volatile market and for the fact that the market has been trading pretty low should be enough for anyone with the understanding of the potential benefits for the future to take a step, knowing that buying now and sticking to it for the long run would be a plus for anyone who takes that step. A lot of people always look for advices or wait for lower price when they really do not know how to do that since they aren't traders.
71  Economy / Speculation / Re: Ten years later on: May 29, 2018, 07:33:14 AM
After ten years the market vale will be huge change because bitcoin price is high rate of crypto market. Now bitcoin price is low after ten years the bitcoin price 100k+ in crypto market. So if yiu have to follow the bitcoin instruction i am sure you have to gain in this crypto market after ten years. If you decide the hold on bitcoin after ten years i am sure you get a more profit.

I also believe in that, bitcoin after ten years im sure it will be at +70000$. Bitcoin will stay and it will rise higher in the future. Ten years later i believe bitcoin will continue to dominates cryptocurrency because many of us trully trust bitcoin. Im sure bitcoin will have a new technology sooner and actually bitcoin team are working with it. Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency and i think it will be forever as a king.

When Bitcoin first started out, no one would have absolutely guessed a single bitcoin would be $8k almost 10 years later today. It is not even 800,000 times what it was, it was millions and infinite times,,, so actually to say $70k is not even 10 times,,, quite "realistic" if you think about it. We may not even be able to recognize Bitcoin in 5 years, what more to say 10 years. Lighting Network might even be considered so old and slow.
Market cap of bitcoin is increasing day by day and in the near future the whole world will use bitcoin for their payments. Bitcoin will be the mainstream in the future and all other currencies will disappear from the market. 10 years is long period for bitcoin to hold the whole world. There are still many countries who didn’t accept bitcoin. These countries will be covered with bitcoin
72  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Do you really care if your data is exploited?? on: May 29, 2018, 06:59:03 AM
The real problem we are facing is unknown. With that I mean we have to worry about that what we don't know instead of the recent cases with Facebook that have been covered thousands of times already.

In order to prevent all that you should avoid anything requiring your personal information. It seems difficult with how applications and services require this information, but the fact of the matter is that we don't need them.

With how regulations are kicking in on a weekly basis, all sorts of investment sites and ICOs are requiring personal information, which is utter nonsense. I would never value potential profits over my own privacy.
Hmm. Based on your last statement, I really hope you are for real on that one. Who cares about the data when I am making shit loads of money ? The last time I checked, I am just like a tiny piece in the whole puzzle and it is not like I have something someone else does not have. Facebook used my data and so what ?

Some may say they should have been compensated for it, but really, this is online, and you cannot run for some of these things. Not like I do not care about my privacy, but the truth is that there are so many other ways ones data can be collected without one even knowing no matter how safe you want to be, but unless something is really done about it, we are just screwed on that level.
Yeah it is very important to know who needs your data and for what. Some websites can use your data for illegal activities and you may face legal problems. Everyone should worry about his data while using internet. It is very sensitive and before filling any form we should keep in mind the authentication of that site and be sure that they will use only for their client record.
73  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Tips for Beginners on: May 22, 2018, 11:12:53 AM
Beginner's should always set day trading price targets before jumping in, if you're buying a long position decide in advance how much profit is acceptable as well as a stop loss level if the trade turns against you, then stick by your decisios, this limits your potential loss and keeps you from overly greed if price spikes to an untenable level.
Trading is the most profitable business in the world not only in cryptocurrency but in every business in the world. But it is important that trader should be expert otherwise he will lose all his money. Getting experience and skills are the basics for day trading. You should also have the patience and courage to bear the loss in trading. Giving time to study the market will make you perfect in short time.
74  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I lost 10000$ in trading, what should I do? on: May 22, 2018, 10:40:37 AM
If you just jump in to trading, its never use margin because margin trading only for experience trader, volatilitas of crypto so high and you will loss in big money when wrong prediction, and by use margin the lose will be bigger. Now you can join bounty program and also learn more about your trading mistake and make new trading plan.
I think profit and loss are the parts of business and cryptocurrency is not only usable coins but also a good coin business. You should be patient about crypto and should bear the loss. These two things are mandatory in crypto world, patience and courage to bear the loss. Don’t be panic and wait for more time because many other people also lost their money in trading.
75  Economy / Speculation / Re: The reason why we should invest in Bitcoin Or Ethereum ? on: May 22, 2018, 10:09:59 AM
Aside profit, the other reasons why people invest in bitcoin, Ethereum or any other cryptocurrency is because there is a probability that it might be the online currency being used as an online payment.  Though, we usually use to credit cards and the likes, but cryptocurrency gives you the privilege of making payments online with leaking out or giving out your identity or payment details.
In my opinion there are two reasons for investment in bitcoin or Ethereum. One is its worldwide use without any exchange and the other is making more and more money. This time many people buy bitcoin for earning more money but in the future all will use bitcoin and Ethereum as well for their daily expenditures, like they are using their regular currency.
76  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin will rise up again ? on: May 22, 2018, 09:37:51 AM
The price of Bitcoin rebounded from strong support at $ 8200. I think if the price reaches 9100 and consolidates above it, then a new growth to 12000 will start from these levels. If the price breaks the last local minimum, it can reach 7600. Also in my opinion bitcoin can update records of maximum price till the end of this year.
Yeah it will rise again. It is now increasing gradually and naturally. There is no huge bump and dump in the price. it is normal now. I hope the price will increase more with the passage of time. It is on the way up. The unnatural growth has stopped and it is good for new investors because they have chance to invest in bitcoin to make money in near future.
77  Economy / Speculation / Re: can bitcoin reach 25k$ on: May 22, 2018, 08:04:10 AM
i want some advise from the expert because im only basis on my prediction can anyone tell !
Just days before the December crash, Bitcoin had hit an all-time high above $ 20,000.
It depends upon the investment ratio. When more and more people invest in bitcoin the price will automatically grow more. I can’t say anything about the future price but I am sure that it is rising and as we observed that in the last few weeks the price is round about $8000 to $8500. $20k is far away and I hope it will reach to this level till the end of this year.
