621  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Ripple XRP be the number one cryptocurrency on: October 13, 2018, 05:50:32 AM
Will Ripple XRP be the number one cryptocurrency before the end of the year?

Nah I don’t believe that will ever happen. Bitcoin will always be the number one. Ripple can only get that chance if Bitcoin is taken out from the market.

Do you ever check the market cap? Ripple’s market cap is still eighteen billion dollars, a five billion dollars different from that of Ethereum Mkt Cap, while Bitcoin knocks them with a whole $113 billion. There is every possibility that Ripple will beat Ethereum for the second position, but it won’t beat Bitcoin in being the first position.
622  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you think the market is down right now? on: October 11, 2018, 07:45:51 AM
is it all that is going on with regulations?

Big whales just waiting?

People do not believe in crypto anymore?

is it trouble in some countries in ASIA with laws and regulations?
Someone once told me that no one knows why the market is down, but I don’t know if that’s true for sure. I have seen a lot of people say reasons here as to why the price of Bitcoin is down.

Some claim that the price of Bitcoin is down because the whales are not ready yet, while some are saying it’s because of ICOs that the price of every coin in the market went down. So which one are we going to believe? But I’m thinking it’s the first, maybe the whales are not ready.
623  Economy / Economics / Re: Portfolio on: October 11, 2018, 07:05:35 AM
How many cryptos should Ihave in my portfolio? Are there one recommended diversification ( like having 3 or 4 coins) ?
There is no limit to how many cryptocurrencies you can buy, you are free to buy as much as you want. The only thing you should have in mind is that more coins means more money, so if you are going to buy a lot of coins you really need to have the money to do so.

If you don’t have much money then it will be best if you just buy a few coins. And I will recommend Bitcoin, XMR, Ripple, Ethereum, NEO, Litecoin and BCH. I think these are the ones that are trending in the market now, so you choose any of them.
624  Economy / Economics / Re: "THE INTERLOPIA THEORY" why cryptocurrency must exist on: October 11, 2018, 06:30:27 AM
Hello,

I said this once before publicly and i`ll say it here again.

What is "THE INTERLOPIA THEORY" and why you should consider it. The fact is the following here is my input. BTC exists mostly because of the new generation of the criminal underworld, especially in RUSSIA and CHINA. There they don`t really give a fuck about the US and their problems. With CARDING and DRUGS.

What a clean way to get Drugs delivered to you`re doorstep at 50% off what the normal mob is giving you for. They just hide a bag in a powerfull essenced Columbian coffee can and customs won`t see it.

I`ve also heard of Marijuana being sold from Amsterdam and delivered in DVD boxes they don`t show up on scanners for some reasons and dogs don`t detect it as well.

Why all the politicians are against crime i can`t stop remembering a BLOOMBERG COMMERCIAL. Don`t buy pirated CD and it got from there in Eastern Europe to a hacker which paid hookers which were then used in Human Trafficking and than on drugs for the hookers and finally it ended up to DAVID CARRIDINE who was the world kingpin of ORGANIZED CRIME.

This is highly unethical. And wrong on so many reasons but because of corruption, it must exist.

Getting back to RUSSIAhow easy is it to transport 1 BILLION $overseas with a NANO LEDGER. and do pretty much whatever the fuck you want.
I talked to someone who works in a Secret Service the thing i found out from him is even more outstanding with the NANO LEDGER how easy is it do transport 3 MILLION $ or 50 MILLION $ either to overthrow the Government in Sierra Leone or kill someone overseas someone important buy the equipment or conduct espionage missions.

And now finally Shitoshi Nakamoto the man everyone wants to know but none not even governments seem to find but scammers like STANSBURY CHURCHOUSE say they took a picture with them and their Bitcoin 1% made up story. Which in really isn`t making any money (if you were thinking about buying but you can do what you want with your money).
How come no one has found him after the 2009 financial crisis came isn`t it because

A. The US Government couldn`t nationalize the banks because stupid people from TEXAS will say It`s UNAMERICAN let`s give them the money for free (and what they did was bought up all of the real estate that was undervalued and sold it back to the American people )
B. Because he dosen`t really exist the largest BTC wallet now is about 1.5 BILLION $ worth and it was all created to leave banks without power and give the power to the people and make sure that even CHINA and the USA combined wouldn`t have enough computer superpower to take over the entire BLOCKCHAIN.

Thus making a free market



Reading this was really interesting, but your topic says – why cryptocurrency must exist. So do you mean that cryptocurrency must exist to be used by criminals in the underworld to buy and sell drugs and carry out their evil plans and also be able to launder money etc.? Cause all you were stating here are things that makes people see Bitcoin as a threat.

I’m not against you, I’m just trying to get what you mean by the topic, although the other way round it’s good to make people realize what’s happening in the secret.
625  Economy / Economics / Re: The significance of bitcoin decentralization on: October 11, 2018, 05:53:06 AM
The significance of bitcoin decentralization is that the system works without a central bank or single administrator.Bitcoins are sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer Bitcoin network directly, without the need for intermediaries.
The main point all of you guys are forgetting that the reason why bitcoin first came out. I know there was a history of digital money and there was maybe hundreds of ways people used online money exchange before bitcoin came along, hell I even know couple people who paid each other in world of warcraft golds because it was easy to cash that out anywhere in the world, you could buy some and send it to your friend and he can cash it out on his countries fiat.

However with bitcoin it was definitely because 2008 crisis, it had a part, why? Because banks were bailed at 800 billion dollars on tax payers pocket. Which means decentralization is there so that noone would be screwed like that ever again.
626  Economy / Economics / Re: What manipulators want on: October 10, 2018, 09:35:22 AM
I don't know much, maybe most manipulators only do their activities only for personal gain, but the good of other manipulators helps raise prices
They want to have the power of changing the prices whenever they want and make profit from those changes they made. Sometimes they get right and manage to drop or increase the price whenever they want, I have seen some whales and sometimes they failed to increase or decrease the price, it doesn't work %100 of the time even if you are a whale.

They have more to lose and even tho you won't read this on some newspaper they do lose money and big time once in a while. They are as much afraid of doing what they are doing as you would. This is millions of dollars they play with and sometimes they hit big and they are after that one big hit.
627  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Positive or negative promotion strengthens crypto market? on: October 10, 2018, 07:40:41 AM
Yes both positive and negative promotion or news help cryptocurrency. The reason to this is, in the media, news is news. A news item is far reaching to the heart of those listening or reading instead of not being on air. So,  whichever way it comes, it beams the light of the product to the people in form of awareness at least. Although negative promotion should pull down a coin but especially with bitcoin, I have not really see an immediate drop because of what hate message was sent against bitcoin.
We should actually say negative or positive news as those are the things that get the market driven fundamentally. I would not want to say there is anything like a negative promotion as no team would actually want to attach negative to their project as far as I am concerned.

However, news either good or bad is always going to be a part of the market and there is no way you can avoid any of them and it is those bad news sometimes that actually even makes the market stronger in the long run. As long as a market withstands negative news, come back strong in the end and recover hugely, that speaks somehow into the potential future of the project.
628  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A Bounty Hunter Guide: Things I Do Before Joining Bounty Campaigns on: October 10, 2018, 07:03:21 AM
Great post!
This will help save a lot of people a lot of time and energy.
Of course it will. A lot of people do not understand the value and importance of digging on something before deciding to be a part of it. Bounty hunting is also like using your funds to invest in a project as an investor, but this time you are making use of your time, space and energy for some campaigns though, to get something substantial as an investment without having to use real life funds for it and in that case, it is very necessary to take into precaution most of the things that the OP mentioned, and most especially, when it comes to the product and the team.
629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: October 10, 2018, 06:27:15 AM
For luck based games, it could be true but for sports betting I think you can win more than your loss.
In sports betting yeah it's different you can analyze and have your strategy on what to bet.

For some gamblers it's possible for them to have more wins but for me, it's difficult.

Well you just need to study the market and some specific straties even for sports Cheesy
Yeah, sport betting is actually one unique style of betting that I have seen people win a lot of money, but at the same time, so many people tend to lose as it is not everyone that is usually good with sport analysis.

It is just like trading; some are into real gambling when it comes to trading as they have no strategy or plan when it comes to trading as well as no knowledge on being able to do some analysis to do well. The same thing applies to sport betting which is why as you see some being successful, some will be unsuccessful.
630  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: jason derulo will make his own coin? on: October 09, 2018, 08:16:49 AM
Nowadays too many popstars are about to make easy money.
I believe teengirls will spend all weekly money on his coins. LOL
50cent was first crypto star - started to sell album for BTC already in 2014  Wink
Grin Well, let's see how gullible people can get to be in the long run, but I would not be surprised anyway if we see some who would want to support their superstar through buying his coin. Pure bullshit! 50 cent was even different entirely compared to what Jason is doing, since he sold some albums at least in bitcoin and it is not like he wants to come up with his own coin.

I can be Derulo's coin; will just be another shit coin, with no real life usage whatsoever in the long run and that is what we really need to be kicking against in this space.
631  Economy / Economics / Re: Evolution of Money on: October 09, 2018, 07:42:20 AM
I think that cryptocurrencies are a kind of evolutionary stage in the development and formation of the economy of the future.
There is no doubt that cryptocurrency are a type of money in the evolutionary stage and formation of money. Like we had the coins which gave rise to fiat and latter on to electronic money, crypto currency is the new and latest stage in the evolution of money and every new technology has replaced the old one up to a great extent, crypto is also on its way to do the same but that will take long time for the already running systems in majority of the countries like those in Asia is not compatible with the crypto.

632  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty Question on: October 09, 2018, 06:43:54 AM
Is it normal that projects will not pay bounty rewards because their sales doesnt reached the target?

Is the bounty manager will be liable to here even its not in their control that ICO failed?

I want to joined Soc Med campaign but I read somewhere that some projects really dont pay at end because of ICO failure.

As far as I know, if the ICO doesn't reach the soft-cap, then the project is cancelled and the investments are reimbursed to the ICO participants. That also means that bounty hunters will not receive any rewards, as the tokens are worthless.
that is exactly what happens and this is the reason why being a part of a bounty should always be more like someone who is trying to invest and making sure they are in a project that have a good chance to success and not just any project.

Anyone who is not comfortable with the idea of not getting paid when the project fails, then they should rather go ahead to look for a project that pays in btc then. As long as you are a bounty hunter, whatever befalls the project hits you as well; it is as simple as that.
633  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which strategy do you have for taking profits? on: October 09, 2018, 05:59:07 AM
My strategy is to hold my coins and wait for a good value or profit then i will dump it. I also joined airdrops and bounties.
That is more applicable to someone who is just doing the hold strategy. Hold until you see a huge skyrocketing in price with everyone FOMOing with market being overbought and then just zap. It is usually very interesting that way for someone who is a long term trader.

However, for someone who is a short term and midterm trader, I usually take advantage of the condition, the momentum and the trend of the market changing which is how I have always made trading decisions and I have always used that as a strategy to buy and sell over the years with stop loss in either way.
634  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to learn cryptocurrency day trading! on: October 06, 2018, 06:27:58 AM
I think to be able to learn daily trading you should be able to try to read the article and the easiest one at this time might be that you could learn it in the media such as YouTube so that the information you get can be clear and you can understand it directly.

No one article will help you until you try it yourself. Only the experience can be your best teacher here. When you deal with the day trading, you will understand if it is yours.
It’s very simple for all users who want to learn trading it's understandable and the right method to get enough profit in few days beside it it’s very important for a trader to be aware about the market price and exchange method as soon as the prices start increasing you should sell your coin to get profit, do not wait for checking prices after weeks and months because the price may increase tomorrow and you can take more profit without waiting too much for trading.
635  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum Vs. Bitcoin on: October 05, 2018, 06:07:03 AM
Why compare two incomparable currencies? Yes, of course bitcoin is the first currency and Ethereum is just an altcoin, but for investment I would choose Ethereum.
They are being compared on the basis of price in the market. Both were initially thought of as potential opponents in the market and ETH was expected to give Bitcoin a hard time in 2020. Besides, both of these coins have been ruling the market claiming the top market caps.

The profitability in Bitcoin was considered to be high than ETH but the rate at which ETH was advancing was viewed as faster than Bitcoin. This is why these two are often compared. And yes investment in both these coins can be profitable than in any other coin.
636  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you think this year will be Red? on: October 05, 2018, 05:30:49 AM
almost every year at the end of the year it's always green.
but I'm also not sure whether this year will return to green,
even though I hope many markets will return to skyrocket so my assets also rise haha.
Yes this was a very red year with all the crypto market activities very down, low transactions and little investments though many people have been quick enough to cash the opportunity to invest at low cost which is still going on.  We have had speculations about the rise of the market that was supposed to have started from September but it never happened.

Besides, there are still many people who think the boom is linked to December and claim the investment of corporate money that will boom the market. I am optimistic about the next year.

637  Economy / Speculation / Re: What's with the fud? on: October 04, 2018, 07:15:48 AM
I think what happened with this fud made many people and many traders panic and made them sell their assets at very cheap prices so that those who spread bad news could buy coins at very cheap prices.
FUD is one thing we cannot rule out and that is because people tend to make decisions out of ignorance and they can easily be played to get emotional when the time comes and before you know it, they tend to panic pretty fast in the face of market turbulence instead of seeing an opportunity to take advantage of.

Bad news will always one way or the other, find its way into the mainstream media, and in cases like this and with market being manipulated to go in line with the bad news by creating FUD, it is normal to see those who are just so keen about the quick profit, bailing out pretty fast even at loss.
638  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you have to make big investment before you can make profit in crypto? on: October 04, 2018, 06:41:35 AM
Not always with big capital. That is why crypto's interest is more than gold or obligation because both require a lot of capital. Crypto only fights with the right coins and waits for a few moments to make a profit.
Looking at the rate at which the space has been increasing over the years, and the volatility rate, we could definitely know that as long as you play your cards well and smart, you really do not have to go all in all in the name of big investments, but you can still invest what you can afford to see go down in the short term without shaking a bit in your pants.

For now, things are really changing fast and pretty soon, we may likely start seeing some pretty good level of adoption and it is normal to get too excited because of that but one should not be too excited not to be able to manage risks as the case may be.
639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Experience is the best teacher on: October 04, 2018, 05:55:01 AM
If the adage "Experience is the best teacher" is applicable in different spheres of life, it is definitely applicable in the cryptospace. Those who have been in this space for quite sometimes now will be able attest to the fact that the experience they have had through encounters with different projects and coins on different exchanges, is now helping them to be able to identify at least to an extent both genuine and scam projects.
What could have aided this could be due to the fact that there is no regulatory body, alongside other reasons in the cryptosphere.
So, the more your level of exposure, the more your experience and the better you become.
You’re right about it, experience is the best teacher but it will be best for you to learn from the experience of others than to experience the same thing yourself. Sometimes experience is not just the best teacher, it can take someone’s life or take away their joy or make them go bankrupt lol.

So pray it doesn’t come to you, you’d better learn from other people’s experience. Just like in trading, there are people who don’t know that they are supposed to setup their stop loss until they start experiencing huge losses. But if you took out time to know that, you won’t experience such.
640  Economy / Economics / Re: Centralized or Decentralized for cryptocurrencies? on: October 03, 2018, 08:03:04 AM
I think to be safer and more comfortable you can use centralized exchange because I think that using the decentralized method is very vulnerable at times to hacking.
Formally the decentralized aspect of the cryptocurrency like Bitcoin was more desired and was considered as the property that will allow the users lower cost and escape taxes but this had other disadvantages as well. Right now, majority of the people are talking about imposing regulations and this if on one hand can make the investment a bit more secure and can remove the air of uncertainty is the loss of value on the other hand in the form of tax.
