Obviously, but if you check out most people who gamble and end up turning to addicts today, they are the ones with just so little and hoping that one day, may be their luck could shine and then set them up for life and rather than using that little to work hard and gradually make themselves be what they want to be, they are looking for the easy way out until they totally get greedy and then end up becoming addicted and a nuisance.

Nevertheless, it surprises me when I hear of those who were rich before turning into addicts and losing everything, which is really some scary one I must say.

I am not meeting the merit requirements of this campaign. Am I allowed to join here...

(I had been part of rollin camp for more than a year. Rollin campaign's manager @guitarplinker was the first manager to enforce the "no post in mega spam threads" rule. After rollin, I was part of crypto-news campaign from beginning to end.)

Thanks....

That makes a lot of sense honestly. Anyone who has all their investments on exchanges really does not have anything because whatever happens to those exchanges will plainly affect all their holdings. The most secured way is having a decentralized wallet holding most of your assets except for those one may want to trade once in a while for the benefit one can derive from trading.

There is absolutely no way I can actually just put all the things that I have in one single place most especially when I do not have control over them. For the short or mid-term trade, it is always tempting to have some in the exchange so as to utilize the profit one can make from the fluctuations in the market. I have always believed in storing long term in cold storage since that is safer anyway.

That is always the idea. Never rush to invest in anything but take your time, get to see how you can be a part of the system, know all that you need to know and then start making decisions based on that. For those who are learned in this environment, it is always easy for them to make certain decisions without getting screwed or bothered about what may be going on in the market as long as they are sure of what they are doing. Not being sure or ignorance is what has led so many people to panicking at the slightest volatility move the market makes.

I would rather say you really need to have big idea to back up your big bucks. I am not disputing the fact that having both is not good, it is definitely and having big bucks will let you quickly set the ball rolling with your great idea. Nevertheless, if you are resilient in nature and you have a big idea that you know would fly no matter what, you can build on it gradually.

Starting small is never a crime. Also, I have known people who have built an idea from the scratch and made it bigger over time. I always believe that once you have an idea, you have it all, and nothing should ever be a limitation.

It is not bitcoin that possesses the power, it is just the way traders and the big guys perceive the market. Being a trader normally, it is always a best idea to stay clear of market at this moment in time because things can just change within a twinkle of an eye. The market has been based on a lot of FUD and that alone can easily affect stability, most especially when a particular hand seems suppressed and the other is still looking for a better angle to take over.

Usually the smaller range of fluctuations shows up the lack of new players. It means bitcoin is not currently attracting new investors who come and join the party to manipulate the extremes that he could. On the other hand we must take small ranged fluctuations are denoting sustaining prices, a very good symbol for another round of bull-run.

Lol. I really hope they get to do that as well honestly. I have always believed so much in the waves platform and I have been holding the coin for a very long time which I believe it is going to be worth waiting anyway considering how the devs have been working hard and trying to make the project of having a decentralized exchange platform a success. If they can have much more suitable wallets anyway, it would not be a bad idea at all.

These are the reasons that I have always been a very huge fan of waves and even though some have complained about the movement in its value as nothing much is being gotten from holding it, but for those who can see a great future for waves and with the way the devs have been active, I feel it is pretty much worth knowing that this is one coin one should be holding in his or her portfolio because I see a great chance for the waves decentralized platform.

Hugely bright. It is more like being in a tunnel right now and seeing light at the end of the tunnel and that is one thing that gives a lot of hope as you keep approaching to the other end of the tunnel. Things are getting better and things will get even much better. Government already know they can do nothing to stop these and that is why we would rather see regulations than trying to put effort together to get rid of it. They also have so much to gain and with that we can have a working system even though the fiat system still remains.

Emotion will hardly come in if you know your position in the market. It is either you are a trader or a holder or whichever ways, we all know exactly what we are looking out for. Sure, there is no reason to panic because the market will recover and get back good and solid, and no matter how long it takes, it is always a good thing to do most especially when you have no knowledge about trading.

Trading however is for those who have been able to go through the learning process and know what they are doing and as risky as it is, they already know how to play it out, but far better than holding, so the choice is in everyone's hand, but panicking should be totally ruled out.

I cannot accept the possibilities you have mentioned. Because in this world, each and everything comes with its own risks hence bitcoin is not an exception. Compared to any other existing system, I believe bitcoin must have less possibilities to get disappeared.

Demand for bitcoins and adoption of bitcoins to a large extent are the things that I see happening. So far, we are still very low on  adoption, and there is nothing really that could fuel it, but as we keep growing and heading gradually to the mainstream with regulations, I see a lot of adoption taking place and I presume it to be a massive one. People may be looking at the present picture now, but for some of us, the picture in the future is far bigger.

Highly impossible. Most countries today are independent, and stand based on their own policies and regulation and even though we have some international monetary policies, having a global regulation on cryptocurrency is something that would not work most especially since it is highly decentralized. As long as each country is convenient with the idea, they will just come up with regulation policies unless they only want to borrow a cue from others.

Yeah, and if we take a look at most of the countries who really do not see it as a threat, they are still doing pretty fine and adoption is increasing here. Sure, we may get to see some huge global level of regulation, but coming as one body to regulate is not going to be possible. However, I believe with the way things are going, every country will start seeing how they can regulate and possibly benefit from the whole idea.

Apparently, no one should even try to gamble without knowing that they can lose everything and with that, it would be so easy to have a target and once you hit that, you walk away.

Nevertheless, not having this target is what has made some people to always end up being put in the corner where they give up to the impulse that comes with gambling until they end up losing everything. This should not always be the case because if you fail to control yourself, then you will be controlled and the latter is a bad one to ever face.

Well, sport game is a totally different case scenario here and even if you have all those ideas in your head, as much as they can give you a huge chance of hitting it, everything would still ball down on luck. I have those moments before when I thought a particular team had the best chance at home and they still got beaten anyway even though everything kind of favored them. The thing is that shit happens once in a while and those moments can actually leave you dumbfounded when they do.

Even without bitcoin or cryptocurrency, paper money has already been replaced by the cashless society in some places with high level of infrastructure. However, I believe the blockchain technology is really going to pave way for a lot of development as we move on, while bitcoin may end up serving more as an asset and a currency due to its decentralized nature, while the activities get regulated by the government, and even if no one can predict the future, I do not see bitcoin going anywhere.

I guess you mean if a country's money value goes to zero then bitcoin value will increase, right ? Yes, even just a economic crisis also will trigger bitcoin prices to some peak levels. By this you mean, bitcoin will never disappear ? Then I must agree with you.

Maybe we keep waiting for the any in such case but as it is and the way SEC is regulating the market, I would rather stick my option to few of the coins such as bitcoin that I can trust than gamble holding some alts that may end up being screwed. Also, bittrex being a US based exchange, I have noticed the way it has been bouncing some alts recently and it seems this is what is going to end up happening for most of these coins or tokens if care is not taken.

The future of the electronic market must be having brighter future than what we could imagine as electronic gadgets are part of everybody's life along with revolutionary high speed mobile networks and fiber optic internet connections. We cannot expect people to stick with old way of fiat transactions. They will definitely look forward in a level which must be convenient to them.

Along with conveniences, cryptocurrencies offer lots of benefits compared to other electronic payment system. When comparing other electronic money system, cryptocurrencies will definitely sustain and will replace all other existing system.

Maybe you did not follow the G20 meeting. Cryptocurrency during the meeting was not even classified as a threat in anyway and the last thing that can be done is just to regulate the space. Also, controlling is something they cannot achieve, unless you are trying to refer to regulations, but as far as I am concerned, only your activities are monitored, it still remains a decentralized environment and that makes it uncontrollable.

Adopting new technology like blockchain should not be a problem for banks as it is already obvious they do not see cryptocurrency as threat and the only thing that is needed is regulation which would even help us all to move forward. Banks do not need to use crypto, they can only serve as an exchange medium in the long run for those who may need to convert to fiat, whichever way; they are still making money.

Yeah, it all depends on individual. As the whole global economy is battling with their fiat system, we are safe in our own decentralized system and really, this would definitely open the eye of so many people right now with the way things are going to be changing in the long run. However, for country that may really accept the usage of bitcoin, it may really help the economy in general since everyone may end up doing pretty well without having to get screwed by fiat.

The entire world economy is sliding down basically because of all the government nonchalant policies that end up draining everything. Bitcoin would only come to the rescue if they accept the idea of decentralization, but of course, we already know that is not possible. So, at the end, only those who are smart enough to filter out the rubbish fiat system from the real thing will be able to do well in the system that is ridden with looming issues.

The volatility is huge now because really there is no real life usage or some pretty much level of adoption right now, so it is something we should expect. If there is a real demand for it for daily usage, I do not think this would be a big challenge due to the high level of demand for it.

I believe as we move ahead, a lot of things will change anyway but right now we are just having some speculative assets in our hands and in the real state, no much use for daily payment unless you are lucky to hit some merchants in your country accepting it. Otherwise like many Asian country people, we all need to hold our bitcoins and wait for some merchants to start up.

I would not doubt that. It took time before it even got to that ATH last year, and with the way things have been before, I would not doubt anything right now. $200 will be a very good bargain and a sweet one to watch out for to load up for the next leg up and even though it does not sound like something that could happen.

The truth is that even less than $400 few months ago would not have seem likely, so with that, anything is definitely possible as ETH is inflationary but we also have to understand that if there is a huge demand for it, and if the market bounces back, then we should see it probably back to its feet.

Also, we hovered around $300 to $400 for a very long time, so going way lower may not seem like it, but it is the crypto world, and anything is possible. The bloodbath is everywhere and it is affecting the whole space, but if it brings the chance to accumulate more for the future, who are we to say no?

Well, April is still very young, so we can at least just see how things will be turning out pretty soon. I wonder what it is going to be like in coming days anyway, with the way the bears are busy tearing the market apart and waiting for every weak souls to dump all their coins for them. We are in with the big players as it is and I would not be surprised if this month we just end up consolidating after a huge drop with nothing much to expect from the bulls. Like many experts have predicted, I too believe in seeing new trend from this month onward. Because, so far all quarters in a year usually will not be same for crypros.
