6101  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin wallets on older iphones are insecure on: September 29, 2019, 05:55:37 AM
Crazy how fast technology moves and advances in our world. The iPhone X was one of the most flagship phones apple ever made, and now your telling me, that after only 2 years of it being out, it can easily get hacked and exploited? That's crazy.

It isn't as bad as it's made out to be though, they need to have physical access regarding the device and it's very specific and hard to do.

So just don't let other people use your phone if you have BTC or other coins on it - invest in a desktop wallet.
Yea and this is why I mainly invest in desktop wallets instead of my mobile phones. But the portability of a mobile wallet is really nice so it can't really be helped that people want to use them instead of desktop wallets.

Do you mean that according to Loshan and all iPhone device units are no longer advisable to use in case the user downloads Bitcoin or litecoin apps for wallet use? Is this what you want to convey on this topic that you did dude? But other device units like Samsung, Oppo, and Vivo are okay. Do I understand correctly that I'm right?
Well if I read that correctly then yes. Only iPhone devices are affected and other device units should be safe from the exploit stated by the poster. That is considering the current information at hand regarding the safety of using Android devices anyway.

Recent article "Is it time to Buy Bitcoin?" here: https://www.cryptofish.com/blog/is-now-the-time-to-buy-bitcoin/ so supposedly the 200 Day average may hold up price? then again, we are below the 200ema so maybe not. Fear and Greed sentiment indicator is showing a lot of fear....

And that's why bitcoin can bring profit. Not knowing when to buy bitcoin or not is the challenge that the world gives us and when you manage to time yourself at the correct moment, then that's what can give you profit. That's pretty much how investing goes after all. Even if you do thousands and thousands of research, it still doesn't guarantee a 100% guarantee that you can profit from that investment. It's a mixture of luck and timing in the end. Of course, if you fear that you may make a mistake, then progress would never follow so I'd rather invest than get swallowed up by fear. If you can just invest when you trust is the right time. I would suppose it's around mid-October is the best time probably? The recent launch of Bakkt would also push BTC up but it wouldn't produce results right away so I suggest waiting for a few more days before buying BTC.

Nitrogensports is great, anonymous and everything but the lines they offer are lacking and often take a while to be posted.

I've been looking for an alternative, and I stumbled upon this site. Does anyone have a review for them?

Or have any recommendations for an anonymous esports sportsbook?

Seems like its pretty good. Just viewed their site and haven't really noticed anything so far that can be marked as suspicious. Of course, this lacks much information about how it really works since I've never used it but appearance-wise it looks nice.  If you want alternatives you can try looking up the net and then ask about here again. Can't really recommend others since I rarely bet in esports. You can try reviewing these sites and see if any meets your eye.

6104  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy now or wait for Bitcoin? on: September 29, 2019, 04:35:58 AM
Hi all,

I want to invest some money in Bitcoin (long term investment)
It's better wait the next fall down (like the situation on December/January), or buy now?
Otherwise fixing a target for example 7000 or 8000 $ and buy in that moment?

Thank you in advance for your suggestion



There isn't really a good or bad time in buying Bitcoin to be perfectly honest. Rather than asking advice for when to buy them, you should rather ask advice about observations of the past market and try to come up with a variety of possibilities that may happen. From there, you can then adapt and decide for yourself whether to invest or not. It's a lot more about researching and luck since the market is really hard to read at times and we still have people who pump or drop the prices continuously
6105  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin ATM Operators in Nevada Requires License to Operate on: September 29, 2019, 03:52:16 AM
US State of Nevada Financial Institutions Division has recently issued a statement concerning the need for the protection of the general interest in view of the increasing adoption of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.

The regulator's statement implies that even Bitcoin ATM operators are required to get their licenses before they can legally operate.

According to the NFID,

"Any entity that facilitates the transmission of or holds fiat or digital currency by way of brick-and-mortar,
kiosk, mobile, internet or any other means, should contact the NFID to request a licensure determination."

Well, I really doubt people would trust BTC ATM's when the said operator is an unlicensed one. For the sake of the safety of users of BTC, and for those that are still uninvolved to trust BTC and believe that they can get into it as well, regulations should be applied towards those transactions where a middleman is involved. Besides, without those licenses, scammers would enter the scene and it would basically render the usage of ATMs as useless. Not saying that all things involved in BTC should be regulated, but some should be strictly regulated to prevent problems from arising and help the community develop better. The BTC community shouldn't be run or controlled by the government but should rather cooperate and build a lasting community instead.

The veteran investor of hedge fund, Mark Yusko has said that it is not the right time for sell and Bitcoin (BTC) is only showing a buy signal. Yusko gave this statement in an interview with CNBC on 27th September.

Im pretty sure old timers are already experienced with how the bitcoin market flows. Fear always holds those whom are beginners and those old timers are fearless in holding. Holding is the number one key to success mateys so trust the experts and hold. Btc has been through a lot of downs and most people took this as an advantage. Now look how much they profited now.
6107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Supply is meeting demand. The number of Bitcoin ATMs worldwide is up over 500% on: September 28, 2019, 02:50:33 PM
Hey, it's Bitrawr. I've been following the Bitcoin ATM landscape for a while now and recently drew attention to the latest figures.

The number of Bitcoin ATMs from September 2016 to September 2019 has increased by over 500%. As of now, there are currently 5,457 Bitcoin ATMs globally. I believe that this is indicative of the strong demand for anonymously transacting between fiat/bitcoin.

https://twitter.com/bitrawr/status/1174682600834764803

The increase of Bitcoin ATMs is quitw good for its publicity but that amount is still little to cater the world. Ofncourse, compared to the past its a huge increase in numbers though. But the usage of Bitcoin ATMs are imo quite low. People would still rather p2p to be fair and since a lot of people still dont know what BTC is, it would still take some time for people to adopt the usage of ATMs on a regular basis. Sure some people would use it but only every now and then.
6108  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin Make it back to $20k ? on: September 28, 2019, 02:24:30 PM
There is a reason why bitcoin price surge in 2017
from three thousand us dollar to five thousand then goes up to 20k
during that time bitcoin is Introduce to public  and they are slowly
getting interest to invest on crypto , suddenly it started a bull run
and the public goes crazy over it excitement and everything
they buy bitcoins to hoard, then a news breakout china is banning bitcoin and exchanges, also closing mining firms, all kinds of fud
release over the internet, and the price declines
Now bitcoin is under fire again with Bakkt first day of trade price crumble again but slowly regain, they say october is the time that it will reach 16k are we gonna see 20k+ by november ?
feel free to share your thoughts dont be rude to everyone smile

Its really hard to compare the period of btc reaching 20k to now. And besides, coin dumps and pumps are a common thing since forever so you can't really read how the prices would go. Prices dropped like quite a bit of times and went up sometimes. Resting its increase on the recent release of Bakkt aint that good. Although it is a nice rope to cling to and hope that bitcoin would really surge up cause of it, its not the only factor involved. But I do hope it goes back to its prime or maybe exceed it though.
6109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The first Bakkt Bitcoin Futures trade on: September 28, 2019, 01:50:08 PM

Finally, it's lived now. I wonder what will happen in the next few hours after this. Will it affect the bitcoin price, and we will see the next higher price, or it will remain like the price now?

What do you think, guys? I don't know if the news is real or not, I just read on twitter Grin

Source : https://twitter.com/Bakkt/status/1175938226554658824?s=19

It should probably be a goodthing in the long term but as of now, I dont think its possible to see any positive benefits it can give out. Assuming that it can hold out to the point where it can pull benefits by itself already. It appears quite weak since it really was kind of hyped too much but it should surely bring about benefits if it can stand its ground.
6110  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will it be good for bitcoin if it will be regulated by the Goverment's on: September 28, 2019, 01:21:19 PM
I think it's inevitable. For bitcoin to really break away and receive mass adoption, a government regulation of some sort must be in place. Let's face it, at this time, trust is not that high for  bitcoin and crypto in general. Many people are still seeing it as a scam because they don't understand it. A government regulation should be able to reach out to the masses and give confidence that bitcoin is legitimate.

Yes it may give legitimacy for bitcoin but at the end of the day, government regulations would surely adopt policies that would favor them in the long run. Compared to the now of the current BTC community, it's really just some people scamming others. And if goverment regulations were implemented, those people would just be chaned to the government. I rather like the current freedom the market has since it reallt helps develop the community a lot more because it develops its own rules and regulations. What you said about the legitimacy of cryptop and btc is we all just need the acknowledgement of the government, but they dont really need to take control and adopt regulations and policies for it.
6111  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are You Doing This? on: September 28, 2019, 12:51:37 PM
Well yes I do. If your family is what you can really calk a family then by all means I would trust them with it. They literally were the ones who fed me while growing up and trusted me enough to grow up into a fine human being so why would I not trust them with money. Its like how they say you cant really bring physical belongings to heaven so might as well leave them to people who can actually use them.
6112  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a way to set recurring BTC buys, without a lot of fees? on: September 28, 2019, 12:30:07 PM
You can try just posting it as a job but give it to those whom you could at least trust a 100% or possibly place a backup or contingency in case they betray you. But id rather just do it myself to be perfectly honest. Create a few appointments and make them notify myself on those days i need to buy or something similar to that. If you really want convenice though, you have to bear the costs for it and hopefully wait for it to lower to an acceptable range.
6113  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will it be good for bitcoin if it will be regulated by the Goverment's on: September 28, 2019, 11:32:40 AM
The bitcoin community still stands quite strong even without the governments hands on it. The sole reason your friend lost quite a lot was because his readings towards the market were incorrect. The fact that bitcoin is not regulated by everyone makes it equal for everyone since no one can control or adopt policies that could favor one party from another. Government adopt policies for the overall good so by the end, all of us will lose out since you can't really get something without giving something.
6114  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day Trading on: May 26, 2019, 04:56:34 AM
personally I have seen many diving into daytrading and losing money ,, they do daytrade because they think that they will become rich but daytrading is the toughest one and we need lot of experience to earn money from daytrading , if anyone disagree this try for yourself and you we know what I am saying
I also noticed that there are lots of people asking what daytrading experience is and I just like respond that it is very risky and low chance of having a profit rather than long quite ones. I haven't tried it yet, but most of the confession of their experience do really determine the diffuculty level of it.
6115  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A shocking truth! on: May 25, 2019, 11:10:55 AM
Indeed if you are feeling the bullrun go on and hoard as many coins as you can specialy coins on the top or CMC rankings,or whenever you see the low bottom of the coin go for it because it will not take a long time for the bullish market to return.Hodling established coins will surely earn you when bullish market attack.Always buy on the dip they say Smiley
  I agree, holding is the best way to gain a profit especially when the market situation is ideal for all investors. But also not all coins are profitable there are just a atleast half on this market where you can benefit to like top tier coins bitcoin, ethereum and XRP. This time is a good time to invest since we are kinda approaching a bull market with the market movement.
6116  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What trading strategy do you guys use? on: May 24, 2019, 12:52:31 PM
Hey guys, what kind of trading strategy do you use? and Why? What's the effectivity rate?
As for my strategy I always use the fundamental analysis, the basic one as it always give the result I want. The basic supply and demand law is 90% working all the time. But it doesn't necessary means that my strategy is applicable for everyone, I've tested it at first and find it working so I go with it.I can say strategy and trader must meet halfway for it to work perfectly.
6117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: A New Bitcoin Rival Is Coming? on: May 24, 2019, 12:01:14 PM



There is now a name for the cryptocurrency-based payment system that Facebook is planning to debut in 2020 and it is called as GlobalCoin. Indeed, as the name suggest, it would be available globally (well maybe except China, Russia, Iran, North Korea and nations USA is not doing business with) starting with some hand-picked countries. Right now, the team established by Mark to tackle on this project has been communicating with some people involved with regulatory matters to thresh out things so they can start the trial maybe within this year.

With the Facebook empire at the helm and behind the GlobalCoin, people are getting excited and there are now many big investors lining up to be part of the funding circle hoping to snatch part of the estimated $1 billion the project is looking for. With Mark having the Midas touch, investors are thinking that this can be another opportunity of a lifetime. I am not sure though if Facebook will decide to also open the crowdfunding with small investors like in the trending IEOs we have today.

Wow! And of course, there will always be critics of this move by Facebook to join the cryptocurrency craze. There are objecting that what Facebook is getting into is not decentralized and hence can not even be called as genuine cryptocurrency akin to what we see in Bitcoin, Ethereum and the rest of the gang.

Now, considering all of these things and the very big potential of this Facebook project called as GlobalCoin, do you think that soon we can see Mark Zuckerberg not just the emperor of the social media but also the king of cryptocurrency? Or you think that this should be treated just like a normal (though it is very big) project which might also go wrong if the market will not be responding positively? What is your opinion with the foray of Mark into cryptocurrency and will Globalcoin one day be a rival to that of Bitcoin?





If this is going to be a stable coin and just for facebook purposes I'm pretty sure it won't click that hard to become a bitcoin's rival in the future in the market. This has been tackled for about a year if this coin will really hit the market and I don't really think it would but somehow many will check it and probably invest to it since it is handled by Mark's team.
6118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH Hits $270: $300 Next? on: May 23, 2019, 12:59:29 PM
I am very confident and believe ethereum prices will touch the level of $ 300, although market dynamics continue to occur but this will not be able to withstand the process of ethereum and bitcoin price movements that continue to increase. My prediction, something beautiful will happen before the end of this year.
Hopefully this will come true but we are still uncertain due to some factors. I'm still looking forward for more valuable price of ethereum since it will launch the upgraded version of it. This year is gonna be exciting like what 2017 brought to us but this time its gonna be much bigger and wider trust me.
6119  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Invest now? or wait for down turn? on: May 15, 2019, 01:12:50 PM
Definitely need to invest now in the digital market and carefully approach the formation of its cryptocurrency portfolio, capitalization will grow for several years
Absolutely, as bitcoin reached $8000 again it might be the turn of bitcoin bull run and alternative coins will follow. No doubt we can see bitcoin again with 5 figures this year like what we have seen last 2017 to 2018. Having bitcoin on $8000 is kind of safe right now to profit when it gradually increase as time goes by, don't turn for the down.
6120  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It's time to buy altcoins on: May 15, 2019, 12:30:18 PM
With the BTC bull charging forward, this might be the signal to buy altcoins as well. Keep in mind that those that have a high daily trading volume and receives huge support by a large community are probably here to stay for some time.
I agree. altcoins for the past few years are just following the bitcoin's market trend and these altcoins is also a great way to invest your money however not all alts is potentially growing there are just selected ones. This is a good time to buy alternatives but don't forget the great ones, Bitcoin , ethereum and XRP.
