Currently on the coinmarketcap site only about 1590 projects compared to at times more than 1700 projects. They have left many projects without developers or scam projects. I personally invested in some of these projects and lost a lot of money like bitconect and centra. Do you trust the projects you are investing in and will keep them for a long time until they succeed or are they just looking for profit in the short term?
bitconnect - a ponzi scheme with crypto as their product, right? i think because of this thing, few people who didn't know about crypto will said if crypto is a ponzi scheme this is why you lost your money, and centra a scammy project in crypto,, if i'm not wrong the founders of the Centra have been arrested right i think you should learn more about cryptocurrencies to know, how to find a good cryptocurrencies well,, a lot of project dead, because the dev team doesn't ready in development, a good dev team will stay active to develop the project It will always matter with its developer in the end if a certain project tend to be a fraud on the very first place or a legit one. That bitconnect scheme is really too obvious that's why I didn't tend to invest out money because too good to be true returns would always be shady and now we have seen the things happen to them. Its not sustainable for long term but people do still risk up to put money and now they are facing loses due to that greed. There are lots of projects or coins are dead they might gain some traction on early phase but as the time goes by they do die. |

So I guess Hashflare is ending all the SHA-256 contracts effectively immediately, so I guess I lose my entire $500 investment right? I should have listened.
People (you seem to fit in that category as well) only learn when they lose money. Let it be a lesson for you and be happy that it only concerns $500 and not thousands of dollars, because some idiots actually invest these amounts in cloud mining. The thing is that before investing in cloud mining, you can pretty easily calculate how profitable or unprofitable it is, and not one single time in the last 12 months has any calculation pointed out how profitable cloud mining is. Every indicator points out that you are better off avoiding cloud mining, but people still invest because they want to generate passive income.  "Greed" is the main reason why there are people who do blindly like to waste up their money into these cloud mining sites. Some are already aware but most people do just forget to do a in-depth research before investing which they are just being blinded by that passive income thing without even realizing or do forgot to make calculations first before putting up money and now they are starting to make issues and do already regret on what they have done. People do need to lose money before they do able to learn. |

I am about to reach a milestone is my trading/investing and am going to reevaluate my trading strategy moving forward.
I want to set myself a goal of increasing my BTC by 10% a week (compounded) and wondering what is the best way to do this
Should I invest in small cap coins, coins with high volume. Invest in one coin a week or to different trades each day.
What would you recommend and is it achievable long term
10% a week through compounding would really be possible yet this do involve short or active trading and the best choice or coin to engage on is to those who do have big or high volume.Why? Volatility would really be there yet this is the perfect recipe to make money out of those movements but we do know the risk factor or ration among these movements.If you can able to utilize yourself or handle such situation then it would be an advantage. |

Hey, guys, I am looking for a good and easy-to-use crypto wallet that can I install on my phone. Just tried Lumi. Any comments on it? Now I find it pretty convenient
You can try coinbase, it is easy to use in your phone. If you are using android, just download it at playstore. But i think for the safety reason, you don't need to put too much coin in your phone wallet. Just consider the phone wallet is a secondary wallet. Phone wallet or simply wallet applications are just the same with desktop ones. I'm a coinbase wallet user too but if we do try to differentiate those exchange wallet to web-based wallets or simply online wallets it totally different because we do know on exchange wallets we don't possess the privatekeys which means if either of those companies would shutdown then say goodbye to your coins. I do prefer using up Electrum and coinomi yet you do have the full control your keys and mnemonics. |

Dang! They do already have KYC requirements now and the situation got more worse because as an investor you would need up to comply those things and ive been wondering why such thing is need for to invest with cloud mining sites? If you don't like the hassle just like this one then its much better not to opt-in yourself on investing to these cloud mining sites which will definitely give you out headaches. |

Many of the telegram groups which give signals are run by the same people, I have noticed on multiple occasions of the groups giving the same signals. Many of the groups also conduct coordinated pump and dumps, and they usually send it in all the groups to gather a greater audience. Although some of the signals turn out to be correct, always do your own research before making a trade.
Signals turns out to be correct then it do only have 2 possible scenarios which those are purely manipulated or just a pure coincidence. This is why I don't really trust up these kind of signals given not only on telegram groups but even on this forum itself I cant easily entrust my money to those signals.I do have my own mind to have my own analysis. Getting up some preference isn't bad as long you do know how to deal yourself on such decision. |

Some people make their earnings from that aspect, immediately the coin is listed the price will be much lover than ICO price before regaining he's status, Thus, it's a good idea to buy after ICO.
Always target the lowest price yet this is already the common thing that do happen on most tokens as of now when it do hits up on exchangers where it do normally drops its price lower into its ico or pre-sale value and just wait up for the possible bottom but the question is that how you would determine such price? How you would choose up a coin that can possibly regain its upward momentum later? These are the common things that would really put us on doubt. |

Taking risks is a part of being a successful person, not just in terms or investment or trading, but in life in general, if you spend your whole life playing it safe and thinking that it will make you go far in life than you will spend your whole life wondering why you are stuck in the same place, so in cryptocurrency taking a risk will make you successful and will get you profit, because if you look at all the people who made it in this market are the ones who take risks, from holding on to bitcoin when it was not a big thing.
When we do talk about risk its just not talking about money and same as you said it is indeed part of our daily lives where its up to us if we do risk out something just to upgrade our own way of living or standards of living. If you do target out a particular thing then you would need up to take some risk. Playing safe isn't bad but there are really times which do really need to risk up to attain on what we want. |

I moved it to the appropriate forum and I am waiting for DMs from devs here who can help
No one can actually help you out since I have seen on the thread link given by yours where you do have a pending withdrawal and this is where yobit exchange been known of where they are famous into these kind of issues specially when it comes to their support. Don't stress out yourself on waiting for their reply because they wont really reply any tickets just like the same on other users too so don't bother yourself. For now the only one who can resolve is yobit itself and you are now on the waiting game. |

It seem that almost all ICOs that get listed on exchanges usually plunge in price soon afterwards. Are bounty hunters responsible or is it as a result of the general bearish market condition?
Mainly this would be on pre-sale investors followed up by main sale investors and we do know that this would always be the primary target of a certain investor where sell it up for securing profits before the price would dump. Sell it as soon as possible or else you would end up on being pending or waiting up for the recovery plus some dumps of the bounty hunters then it would surely go down the price but I don't see total tokens gained by hunters would affect too big. |

Although printed on paper money, I think it's more worth mentioning as a member card that can only be used in one place
The initial expectation of bitcoin creation is that it can be used as a global currency, and bitcoin should not be tied to institutions why you make it more complicated by organizing it by signing up for membership before you can use bitcoin directly.
Bitcoin banknotes for me personally is something unbelievable. It is no need to create it. The walls are still very corrupted for Fiat money. Just talking only about that part i cant even imagine that bitcoin would come into that point. Even though they would suggest or recognized bitcoin wont really work on this way. Its really contrary on its real purpose and feature which we do know it is on decentralization and having a bank notes will definitely removed that revolutionary feature and i guess popularity and support would be gone since it would just still act as a local fiat money instead. |

A trader should know how to deal with stress but there is no way you can totally get rid of it especially if you are a trader. The crypto makes people age faster  Somehow agree into this one and i believe most people feel the same way too which most of the time we can really feel out stress and rage of emotions or anxiety when we do see on how the market price do behaves. Stress is there and we know this is a factor where it can make people age more faster due to stress and experience is the thing would somehow help us to avoid or to make control of ourselves. |

One of the basic fundamental pricipals of investing is never invest more than you can afford to lose.
If you already broke that rule and you put in more than you are comfortable losing, then you have to go in to recovery mode.
your goal should be to find ways to at least make back what you initially put in to it.
This might sound counter intuitive, but you should be buying up more coins now.
Since you bought in last december, prices where at all time highs.
To make back that amount would be very difficult.
So you buy more of the coin at a lower price right now, this will decrease your overall cost per coin.
Then, it will be much easier to sell them off when a pump comes along.
If you want out, then run the numbers and sell off to make back.
Investing would always collaborate with certain risk therefore losing out money is an inevitable thing. For op, hes not the only one who do suffer such problem but most people on crypto seeing their holdings decreasing day by day which is normal for this very bear market but coming to 0 value? then its not possible depending if your holding a shitcoin or doesnt included on top 100 on CMC then you can possibly experience such losing value of your coin holding. |

Just when everyone thought Centralized exchanges was a bigger "target" for hackers, then someone hacks a Decentralized exchange.  " Along with this, the hack stats are also disclosed by Bancor and the stolen numbers, at the press time, are - 24,984 in Ethereum amounting to $11.9 million. - NPXS tokens worth $1 million approx. and - 3.2 million BNT tokens i.e. Bancor’s token, amounting to $10 million. " Just want to highlight that no bitcoins was mentioned, because most media outlets will just report that another "Bitcoin" exchange was hacked. Somehow and expected thing that they would possibly report.We know media nowadays every exchange hack there would always be a tagging up with bitcoin but in general sense even ETH,BNT and NPXS were being stolen but most of the time those tokens or coins would be still converted to BTC (just a possibility though). Hackers can able to target out both centralized and decentralized exchangers now. How alarming. |

Atlast i do see some interesting image which do shows of the actual price decrease or corrections of bitcoins price but i would like for you to exclude those 1-5 days correction yet it cant really be considered those things to be a correction but rather just a usual price decrease. When we do talk correction it always involves big percentage loss came from a high price and stays on accumulation period for a matter of time. Basing into those number of days where price is stagnant it do shows how unpredictable market this would be. |

getting early in signature campaign or social media campaign is better for gaining more stakes, but stakes is not important when ICO is failed, get full information about ICO bounty and make sure its not scam ICO.
for social media and telegram i think we are better join in early bounty program started. but for signature i think the best moment to join is when ICOs have been reached softcap. so our work is not useless  Is there such thing like early bounty program? This sounds very new to me and I feel like so intrigued on this. I haven't experienced this thing before and if I join this,will it still be useful on my part since I've been in this situation right now,joining signature campaign? Anyway,I guess this is very useful for newbies. Let's give them the floor to explore crypto world. Early bounty program is probably from beginning, look at jinbi campaign as an example, early participants received much more tokens than later, it is good in other campaigns because you will receive more stakes and more tokens but also has side effect, bounty rules are changeable. Earlier the better but the question would still remain on where either this campaign would succeed or not because it would still useless even you join up as early as you can but you end up on recieving nothing because the campaign either becomes scam or decide not to pay the exact amount and yes bounty rules are changeable anytime if they do want to and as a participant you wont really have any choice but to accept or deal with it. |

You don't need a lot of computing power. Here are all the private keys right here: https://lbc.cryptoguru.org/dio/1 Your key is in there too. Think your money is safe? Guess again. It has already been cracked. here's the address 12tLs9c9RsALt4ockxa1hB4iTCTSmxj2me contains 10,000 BTC would you be kind to point me the exact page number where this bitcoin address is listed that page is a simple on-the-fly auto generated page of hex private keys listed in sequential order Why do people do forces out to believe that list of private keys do have corresponding bitcoins inside of those addresses. I doubt or believe there are fools who are trying to access those btc wallets and hoping or giving a shot to have some jackpots which they are just basically like punching in the air without hitting up something Even if you do try to input those keys for a lifetime i bet you wont able to check it all. haha |

It's common for an exchange to take a wallet offline for maintenance, normally this happens when a coin forks or does a mandatory upgrade. This is uncommon for doge however as it has not been developed in years.
Yes, that's for good exchanges. I can't say the same for Yobit exchange. I know of many wallets on yobit that have been under maintenance for over a year. And it's not like Yobit actually has a support team that you can make complaints or requests to. They don't. I wonder why people still use that exchange when it mainly list shitcoins, has little to no volume when there are fsr mkre better exchanges with more uptime. This do always questions me why there are still people do loves to engage with this exchange yet some of these low volume coins are still traded on other top tier exchangers like Dogecoin but still people end up on using those exchange which do have really a bad reputation yet there are lots of issues we have known to yobit. Bad support, no-ending wallet maintenance, pump and dump schemes, delayed deposits and withdrawals. OP didnt make such update if he do already recieve his dogecoins. |

I think technology is very important, but for a newcomer, it is very advanced and difficult to understand. It is important to choose the right team and project, not always to consider technology. Because technology is always competing, there is no result.
So you mean technology and technical analysis are the same thing? lol I think newbies don't need TA for the reason that almost all small cap altcoins will not move their price according to it. While big ones - just buy when others sell and sell when others buy, that was mega-short training of TA and how to trade I agree somehow to your point when it comes to TA for small cap coins which wont really work most of the time but it would be good if you do start up on using or practicing on how to use TA even you are trading up on low volume or low cap coins because sooner or later you would able come to a point where you would need this kind of knowledge to be supplemented on your trading career. As early as you can technical analysis would a be good traders knowledge even we know this indicator doesnt work anytime in cryptospace. |

If you are talking about Bitcoin Core, then yes. You will either need the unencrypted wallet file or the password to decrypt it and spend the coins. If you have a high amount of BTC stored in your wallet, you could try a service that brute forces your password, like Wallet Recovery Services for 20% of your wallet balance. So you mean that If I lost my private keys than this wallet recovery service can provide me my private key?? No. When you can already access your wallet you would able to know your private keys on such wallet address but if you didnt access it due to wrong password and you havent known the private keys then theres no chance for you to recover it and this is why your last resort would be using up some recovery services and as being said above these services wont give you a guaranteed success everytime. |
