601  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty and too many participants on: April 28, 2018, 07:00:24 AM
Hello community!
 What do you think about popularity of the bounty campaigns? I see many new participants joining bounty campaigns, especially Twitter and Facebook. With more and more new participants, we will earn less and less rewards, also many of potential buyers would rather join bounty campaign than invest to ICO - again less rewards for bounty participants.
 I hope that we will see some regulations here and bounty campaigns be more strict in rules and they will choose only the best participants.
So, what is your opinion, guys?

I think that there is nothing to restrict or complicate in the generosity campaigns ICO. All these restrictions can lead to nothing good. While there is a fairly democratic way to join the ICO bonuses campaigns. The introduction of prohibitions and restrictions will give privileges to one and unfairly restrict others. If you do not agree with the size of generosity, you can not join them and look for other, better ways of making money. Moreover, ICO companies themselves are not interested in such a restriction. For them, the more participants in the generosity campaign will advertise the ICO, the better. Therefore, this conversation does not make sense.
602  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why is Bitcoin's daily price fluctuations getting smaller and smaller? on: April 28, 2018, 06:44:42 AM
The decrease in the amplitude of price fluctuations of bitcoin while the phenomenon is temporary. Although its volatility has decreased, but overall bitcoin is slowly increasing in its price. If this trend continues, then bitcoin will be able to rise well in value. The main thing is that there is no new negative information about the crypto currency and that Mt. Gox from Tokyo and his people did not throw out large batches of bitcoins for sale on the market. Therefore, the greatest volatility of bitcoin is still manifesting itself due to the specific situation that has developed. In the future, its volatility will again increase.
603  Economy / Economics / Re: Crisis is Coming on: April 28, 2018, 06:20:25 AM
If there is a crisis in the market of ordinary money, it will only encourage people's interest in the crypto currency and it will grow in price. In the world, everything is interconnected. If in one place it decreases, then in the other it is necessarily added. So I'm happy but calmly take a possible crisis in the stock market.
604  Economy / Economics / Re: until when will the bounty program remain? on: April 28, 2018, 06:08:22 AM
Over the years there have been a lot of crypto-based-based projects where the business owners offer shares in the form of coins they produce with different kinds of promotions including bounty programs, until when will the gift program remain?
The program of generosity in ICO, this process is mutually beneficial. The ICO team is very interested in advertising their ICO project, and we are interested in doing this, because we can get some of their new tokens for their work. Of course, this kind of activity is far from perfect and there are big problems in it, and first of all it is connected with a large number of frauds during the ICO. Therefore, the regulation of this type of activity has long been ripe for protecting the rights of investors. However, this type of activity is very necessary and useful, because it allows you to improve the crypto currency and make our life more comfortable.
605  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Why has China declared war on bitcoin and digital currencies? on: April 28, 2018, 05:44:13 AM
China’s government is starting an all-out war against bitcoin and other digital currencies by banning fundraising through initial coin offerings and shutting down all mainland digital currency exchanges?
The Chinese government never declared war on the Crypto-currency. They take it quite seriously and study the ways of its use and implementation. It even established the Institute of Digital Currency, which is studying this new phenomenon in financial relations.
Yes, the government of China in September last year announced that the crypto currency is a threat
for the economy of the country because it allows uncontrolled withdrawal of funds from the country. Since then, they are looking for their own ways of solving this issue. However, there was not banned crypto currency as it was done in some other countries. Recently, even the information appeared that there they are going to finally allow the ICO, but under the regulation of state bodies and that they will do so in order to protect the rights of investors.
606  Economy / Economics / Re: Panic selling can contribute to bitcoin price going down? on: April 27, 2018, 03:45:18 AM
I need some opinion if panic selling can contribute of rapidly drop of the bitcoin price. If it is right how can we convince to the bitcoiners to not doing panic selling.
The panic among bitcoin investors means that a significant part of them will sell partially or completely their bitcoins. Everyone knows that the appearance on the market of more offers for sale leads to a depreciation of this coin. Therefore, panic directly contributes to lowering the rate of bitcoin. Panic in bitcoin should be very feared when its course will be very significant. Then the emergence of panic will be very likely due to the fact that investors will be very wary of losing their significant savings. Therefore, then any negative information about bitcoin can provoke a real panic and it can provoke either a very significant drop in the rate of bitcoin, or even its depreciation, including for some time.
607  Economy / Economics / Re: Will countries or central banks create their own cryptocurrency? on: April 27, 2018, 03:29:44 AM
We are already witnessing that some countries are trying to create and create their own centralized crypto currency. Therefore, there is no doubt that they will continue to do so in the future. The most famous so far is the Venezuelan coin of Petro, which is provided with oil. So far, it has been fairly successful. Centralized digital coins of other states are not so popular. I'm still expecting the release of centralized digital coins in China and Russia to see how much these coins will be successful and how they will compete with decentralized crypto currency. This is a very interesting question, which will greatly influence the future of the entire crypto currency. However, these big states are not yet in a hurry to create them, or they have become convinced of their inefficiency.
608  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Germany gives tax exemption for bitcoin exchange operators on: April 27, 2018, 02:31:10 AM
It should be borne in mind that such a decision in Germany was made on the basis of the decision of the European Court of Human Rights of 2015. They announced it. All countries that signed the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of 1950, and there are forty one states, are obliged to implement the specific decision of this court and be guided by it as a source of law, that is, to change their existing laws to a specific decision of the European Court of Human Rights if the domestic laws of the country are contrary to such a judicial decision. This means that all other forty states will have to follow the example of Germany. They simply do not have a choice.
609  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Policy intervention for Bitcoin? on: April 27, 2018, 01:59:34 AM
Do you think the call for inquiry relative to bitcoin at the policy making body like the House of Representatives in the Philippines would help in determining the future of bitcoin and its price?  
This is uniquely so. The issue of the passage of the crypto currency is very serious, first of all, a political issue for each state, although it has more influence on the economy than on politics. However, at all times financial issues have been a priority both in the economy and in politics. Therefore, everything related to the crypto currency, given that it has a very serious impact on the economy of each country, will be considered if necessary at the highest legislative and political level. Soon, even representatives of the G-20 countries will consider the issue of circulation of the crypto currency. It will also happen in any state.
610  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Why Banks are attacking Bitcoin ? on: April 26, 2018, 12:16:50 AM
Banks are now attacking bitcoin and generally crypto currency, because the crypto currency is a very serious competitor of banks. People have already had time to appreciate the advantages of the crypto currency and are increasingly turning to its use without resorting to banks. From this, banks suffer losses, they simply reduce their profits. Therefore, they are trying to defame the crypto currency so that as few people as possible turn to crypto currency. They send letters with a warning that investing in bitcoin contains a lot of risk, or they just pay for the emergence of various negative news about the crypto currency, sometimes even fictional, in the media or social networks. Banks will stop doing this when the states legalize the crypto currency, then the banks will have to adapt to the new situation and cooperate with the crypto currency.
611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: i want to ask about bounty programs is it worthy&paying. on: April 25, 2018, 11:57:50 PM
it is like a gamble but not in its ultimate sense just something like that, being in a bounty campaign doesn't really guarantee you a money. but sometime if its real you can earn some profit which is happen so often. Like in the Forest Gump Movie Quotes. Life is like a box of chocolate you never know what you going to get.
Indeed, participation in the generosity programs ICO is somewhat like a gambling game where you can successfully win or lose completely, depending on the success of the chosen project, since it is quite difficult to predict which of them will be successful and which is not.
In general, this is quite a fascinating and quite profitable occupation. Especially for low-income countries, this is a significant addition to the main work. I would not advise you to go completely to the campaigns of generosity, because profit is not regular and we do not know how long such programs of generosity will still exist.
612  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin vs. Gold Prices on: April 25, 2018, 11:16:26 PM
I agree that in bitcoin it is now possible to earn and not bad to increase profit. However, very long hold bitcoin, especially in those cases when it reaches very high its price values, I would not have risked, given the result of the last drop of bitcoin since December last year. Therefore, I would now prefer to earn in bitcoin, and keep the earnings already about half in gold.
613  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin - Can it boost or break a countries economy? on: April 25, 2018, 10:59:44 PM
If bitcoin will walk in the state along with the national money of this country, then he is able to benefit the state and people. This we can see in the example of Japan, where the introduction of the crypto currency, along with their national money over the past year, brought profit to the economy of the country, that is, an increase in gross domestic income, by 0.3 percent. This is still a small figure, since bitcoin is recognized there as a legal tender only since April of last year, however, I think that in the future it will grow.
If you try to use bitcoin as the main means of payment for the country, I think that the result for the economy will be negative. Bitcoin, with its high volatility, is able to quickly unbalance the economy of any strong state. We do not yet have experience in this matter, but I think that planning the country's economy in bitcoin and monitoring the implementation of the country's budget in this case will be impossible.
614  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO is new way to get Free money? on: April 24, 2018, 06:28:50 PM
I do not know why! I only think that Ico project is a more modern Ponzi method right now.  Huh
How about you, YES OR NOR ?   Huh
Basically, yes. While the activities of the ICO are not regulated, everyone can organize their own ICO project and start collecting funds from credulous investors. From this point of view, scammers are still in good spirits and they are using it. Therefore, somewhere from a third to half of the ICO projects are considered fraudulent. This is a sad statistics and it should change for the better as far as the regulation of these ICO projects. France, Russia and Japan have already announced the beginning of such regulation. I think that other countries will soon go the same way.
615  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why invest in altcoin? on: April 24, 2018, 06:11:18 PM
Why invest in altcoin when you can invest in real estate, stock market?
Real estate and the stock market do not give such profits as altcoyins. Some altkoins can eventually give hundreds of thousands of percent of income. In addition, possession, for example, of tokens provides their owner with various additional benefits in the various narrow areas of existence of these tokens. Therefore, investing in altcoyins is much more profitable than previous popular types of investment.
616  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-04-24] Ukrainian energy ministry website hit by ransomware attack on: April 24, 2018, 05:35:16 PM
Ukraine on the news yet again,but not due to the corrupt goverment this time
hackers managed to deface the energy ministry's website,demanding the ransom of ... 0.1 bitcoins
the ransom page is highly unprofessional,also the demand is a joke,although some other sources say it is actually 10 bitcoins they are demanding not 0.1

read the full article here: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-cyber/ukrainian-energy-ministry-website-hit-by-ransomware-attack-idUSKBN1HV0O3

I live in Ukraine and we are televised through news that the website of the Ministry of Energy was actually hacked by hackers who later encrypted it and require 0.1 bitcoin or $ 900 for its decoding. Therefore, indeed, hackers require exactly 0.1 bitcoins, and not 10 bitcoins, because 900 dollars at the current rate is just about 0.1 bitcoin. Modest hackers in Ukraine, or work for them turned out to be a trifling and therefore they value it so low.
617  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [24-04-2018] 16 Licensed Cryptocurrency Exchanges In Japan on: April 24, 2018, 05:24:02 PM
This is something like a trade union body in the crypto currency. Licensed crypto-exchange exchanges create their own body to solve common problems of their activities and protect their rights. This is quite interesting, since new forms of public administration are emerging, which are associated with the crypto currency. In the future, we will see many more forms of public self-regulation in the field of crypto-currency.
618  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the biggest disadvantage of bitcoin ? on: April 22, 2018, 07:36:46 AM
Disadvantages of bitcoin now is its inability to use it as a means of payment due to the long time of its transactions and high commission fees, high volatility of bitcoins, which does not facilitate its legalization in a number of countries.

The common problem of the crypto-currency market is the dependence of almost all coins and tokens on the bitcoin rate. This paralyzes the market and does not allow developing the rest of the crypto currency.
619  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - What if governments restrict or block electricity supply for mining? on: April 21, 2018, 06:36:03 PM
This happened approximately in China, when the miners there began to prohibit the use of cheap electric power there for the production of bitcoin and other crypto-currencies. After that, many miners immediately began to look for other places abroad with suitable conditions for the addition of bitcoin. Some moved to the province of Quebec in Canada, where there is cheap electricity and a pretty cool climate. Some were looking for this opportunity in Russia and Belarus. Belarus has a very suitable climate and preferential legislation with respect to the crypto currency. So the output can always be found.
620  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why GOV is not supporting the CRYPTOCURRENCY LIKE OTHER NEW TECHNOLOGY??? on: April 21, 2018, 06:22:20 PM
It is very difficult for some governments to agree with that. that in their territory as a means of payment there will be a crypto currency that can not be controlled by it and with which it will be possible to anonymously withdraw money from the country. And the cost of bitcoin is thousands of times greater than any national currency and has greater volatility. It's just an uncontrolled financial bomb inside the country.
