I often lose my temper when altcoins drop sharply.
And in general, I sell altscoin at the bottom
In short you do have weak hands which usually this stuff is being experience and been done when we are still a newbie or new on cryptocurrency world.When we do saw that our investment are going negative we do easily panic and afraid to lose all of the money we do have and decide to sell at loss on those coins but later on you would really realize that you did make a wrong decision when you saw those coins price did eventually recover up.
Sometimes panic selling is useful but would really be on case to case basis.

Not to destroy your efforts on here but i would say this is inappropriate already.Even though we do have different religions but this thing wont really be nice on the eyes specially on Christian people.Dont make use of biblical stuff even though im a bitcoiner and a crypto lover but yet this stuff piss me off.In fact people are already  making opposite things on what you do wrote here.Theres a fork, next people not only invest on bitcoin but also on altcoin too.Speaking of Hack there are lots of incidents of hacks.impostor? There are lots of people do proclaim that they are satoshi.

Had really bad experience with etherdelta, i just wanted to try, deposit some coin i got few weeks ago, my ether transaction showing coins is in etherdelta account, but when i check my account, balance zero. very weird. tried their support, even that is worst, nobody would answer or anything. how even people trade there, strange!
Have you ever clicked those help links on Etherdelta site on how you would deposit your coins into the exchange?Its impossible for deposit not to go through as long you do have the sufficient gas on making transfers.
I do actually understand your situation which when you are a newbie its really hard to engage on etherdelta when you are still a newbie specially if you dont know how etherium fees works too. Just read up the basics since its being putted on their to help you out.I dont have any problems in the site.

If you sold you air dropped BCH, what exchange did you sell it on please?

I’m just curious, no other reason.
Going back into BCH hype in august i did able to sell out some % of it which i do remember it was on Bittrex but yet i do still have some BCH left on my bag for the sole purpose on buying and selling it actively.Just re-rolling and do make active day trades and when i do already see some % profits on a single day then there would be no hesitation on selling it and so as on buying on cheaper coin.
6465  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is eBTC a scam? on: October 27, 2017, 01:28:00 PM
It's most def a scam. The biggest proof is the merchant's websites they claimed have accepted eBTC are fake websites. Go to eBTC's website and click on the link of the merchant's. Do some investigation and you'll quickly realize that they are fake sites. Also haven't you wondered how the claimed adoption came in their first week when literally few even knew the coin exists. There's some coins in the top 100 market cap that haven't had as much adoption as these guys claimed in the first week.
When you do look on the hype being built on its first week we can really say that this is not like on those old altcoins in the market as of now when they are just starting up.The thing you do mention about the on those fake merchants this is actually true since i did able to search up things on the site when it was still up but now they are all done site+dev then its understandable that they are already packing up their wealth that they do made on this project.It would be still considered as scam by those people who did invest on buying it specially on peak prices.
6466  Economy / Economics / Re: If the powerful governments wanted to, do you think they could stop Bitcoin? on: October 27, 2017, 12:40:27 PM
Imo they can't stop bitcoin and most of all they can't kill it. For example, let's compare btc to drugs(just exampe), no matter how powerful a country is, still they cant stop drug trade and so is btc which isn't illegal. They could just slow us down in achieving a higher price if they will try do it.
They cant really stop bitcoin completely.I agree on the thing you do say they might able to slow down the progress or adoption but not completely to stop it no matter how powerful they are.Accepting the fact that not all countries would really have the same view into bitcoin.They might see negative things on most of them but there are countries would really able to see the usage of it and wouldnt tend to ban it but rather legalize it.If you would able to see on the things that they are doing now even on China.They fail to do such thing.
6467  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Turning crypto into fiat or is that even nessesary anymore! on: October 26, 2017, 07:25:29 PM
On our country, it is more convinient when you have a fiat than crypto. My crypto earnings are converted into fiat to become usefull. Crypto currencies are not existed on our local market and you will need to convert it into fiat with some charges and that is the way i hated. Instead of using crypto hand on hand, i will obliged to pay charges on my own money to convert it. It is more economical if we have a fiat to fiat / crypto to crypto exchange.

Like you said if we convert cryptos into fiat currency it is more convenient to use it on local market to buy what we needed.This is because in many place no good internet which is important for crypto transaction and still many people don't know what is bitcoin.At present it is much needed to convert crypto earnings in to fiat to make it useful which includes many costs.But in future i think it is not needed because all people will start to accept crypto.
This is a valid reason as well don't have the facility anywhere to directly buy goods from cryptocurrency. Even if we get this facility anywhere still in my opinion converting crypto into fiat is more convenient for domestic shopping. On each crypto transaction we are charged with a transaction fee so, if there are different places where we shop from in a day we will have to pay the transaction fee for each one separately. Paying with fiat is more convenient inorder this regard. I feel the better way for small payments is fiat.

I see that their are already places acknowledging btc as a from of payment. But for us, it is hardly in the topic of any local markets if they are gonna accept it. I see some banners saying "bitcoin available here" but when i ask them, they have no idea what that it. It seems that it was just random banner given to them. I think it if better to pay iwht fiat because of the easy transaction rather than waiting for confirmation with just even 1 dollar item.

As far as my country is concern, there's no merchants who are still accepting bitcoin yet. So its only logical for me to really convert it to traditional fiat in order to maximized the use of it. Either localbitcoins.com or our local exchanges is the way. Although our local exchanges charges a little bit when converting our bitcoin, I'm fine with it as long as its instant withdrawal for me. We don't have a choice right now since bitcoin already already well known around the world hasn't been universally accepted as of date. It will take 3-5 years before we can truly used it as for micro-payments.
Even 3-5 years wont still be a guarantee that it would be already be transacted on most merchants globally.We wont know on what would happen ahead but yet seeing on the progress of bitcoin we can really presume that it would surely happen anytime soon but for now we dont have any choice but to stick on actively converting it because we do really need money on our basic needs but yet there are people did able to manage to hold up than on actively spending it because they do know the potential profits that it would give on future years to come.
6468  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What are some of the best safety practices for airdrops? on: October 26, 2017, 06:49:20 PM
I am new to crypto. Been reading about shady things that is associated with airdrops. Should airdrops that ask for wallet address  post a red flag? What are the only information we should give when applying for airdrops?
Theres lots of shady things that do exist on airdrops as of now and as a airdrop or bounty hunter we should really be careful on the informations that we do give.They would really normally ask for addresses since they would need that information on where those free coins to be transferred and this is definitely safe as long you dont give or expose your private keys. Next thing is that when we are already on group chats never ever click any links which other people do give the possibilities of getting scammed would be high since most of them are phishing links and comes worst you would download a virus.
6469  Economy / Economics / Re: BITCOIN misconceptions on: October 26, 2017, 06:16:25 PM
I came across several threads on the forums about bitcoin as their source of income, people leaving their day jobs just to focus on campaigns here in the forum.

Why most of the people in the forum sees bitcoin as currency that you need to spend everyday? On my opinion at this point of time for bitcoin it is better to consider it as an asset, an investment that if you keep it there is a big chance that your investment will grow. Think of its future potential, at this time each coin cost $5600+ when maybe about 100 million people who is using it. imagine what will the price be if 1 billion people uses it in the future how much will the price be? And this also applies to alt coins. As much as possible keep you coins and wait for the price to boom.
You cant stop those people on what would be the thing they would able to do with their own lives.You do treat up bitcoin as an asset but some people would really treat it as a currency or a source of income.I dont know that it is possible to make living on just joining campaigns come to think up it do only give a small amount which cant even sustain your daily needs but well they do able to say such thing because they can able to make use of it.
Price increase on future years is really possible since adoption still isnt on its fullest.
6470  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Not sure were to post this but It looks like a fake wallet. on: October 26, 2017, 04:53:15 PM
Hmmm blockchain again???

It's mostly blockchain or coinbase who's name is being abused by phishers, which directly comes from their massive market share. I remember having seen quite some blockchain phishing sites pop up on top at Google when searching for blockchain. I am fairly sure that one of these phishing sites was very similar to the domain being displayed in the screenshot. I am quite paranoid from nature, so for that reason I always triple check URLs, but there are enough people out there who just blindly click on a link if it looks familiar at first glance.

Question to OP -- did this email show up in the same mail address you use for Bitcointalk, faucets, crypto sites, etc? I always use a seperate mail address for every site or service I sign up at, which seems to be the best way to go.
Most of the time if we do accept these kind of emails these are being caused on those sign ups that we do made on a certain site which they do really have the compilation or record on our email and added up into the list.Same as yours i dont really tend to use up my main email rather than using on those dummy emails.Coinbase and blockchain is commonly used because they do have lots of users and yet the template can be easily be copied just like the original one and if you are really not making any reviews on those urls then you will end up on getting scammed.
6471  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Would you download an trading tool that is google chrome extension? on: October 26, 2017, 03:59:33 PM
Would you download an  trading tool that is google chrome extension? I know that some people kinda afraid that it will be a scam and somehow their information will get stollen.
What will make you gain confidence and download it? what does the company need to have/show to you in order to gain your trust?
Downloading randomly on a trading too which is a google chrome extension? No and i wont do such thing ever. Why would need that thing if those exchangers or trading site do already provide all the tools that you do need?
Just like what others said here those kind of situation would really get yourself into trouble if you are not careful enough then most likely you would really able to download a virus even those some anti-virus cant even detect. Dont bother into these things but well its still your own choice for your own convenience.
6472  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why do we keep converting bitcoin back to dollars ? on: October 25, 2017, 07:05:50 PM
Remember that almost everything in the world still needs to be paid with physical money. I can't buy a pizza in my country with Bitcoin, for example. Even those merchants that accept Bitcoin will usually sell them for dollars to pay their bills, because they can't do that with Bitcoin yet.

Give it a few years and maybe we will start seeing people living just by exchange Bitcoins for goods and back and forth.
This is one of the reason why do people do make conversions because bitcoin isnt still considered to be used to pay on bills and other stuffs we do basically do in life.Just like in my own situation i do actively convert my bitcoin earnings to my local fiat because i do really need to do it because i do need to use in order to live.Some portions of it would really be saved on bitcoin form but on big partition most of it will be converted and invest later if i do see already some opportunities that would give me even more money.Its just really on people preference and needs.

By having a weekday 9-5 job, i must say my eyes aren't that keen anymore for trends and hardly made any good decision on buying/selling alts. Basically what i did is:

Weekdays: Coinalarm app to observe my portfolio real time but it's far less efficient and responsive to market movement, Slack and Telegram app are linked as well but still is very difficult to process insightful information while in working mood. 

Weekends: More active than usual but time is limited  Undecided

Any opinions or suggestion to improve my current situation?

Thanks in advance and sorry for bad english  Sad

You know it's not that hard* if you are used to do trades. I too have lots of loads on hands in real life but still able to manage my portfolio. Believe me even you are hectic on your schedule there are lots of ways to manage your portfolio in terms of price monitoring. Of course you need to execute trades when you have time even you are busy but what matters here is , you know the price movement.

I can't give you a specific way as I believe you are the one who can think of a good way. Just try to explore out of your precious brain and soon you can make up a nice way to deal with your concern.
No one cant really give an specific way since we do have our own unique way on engaging into things.We are the only ones who do have idea on what times are most likely we are busy and which is not.Time management would really be crucial and if you are really serious on day trading then this thing would really be a tough job for you.Having a 9-5 job and a day trading will not really be an easy stuff.Time and focus will really be needed specially on price movements.Usually i do make use of blockfolio which most people are saying the same thing too.

If you use code from your imagination (Brain memory) Relax and try to remember the day and the surrounding environment (And the moment)  that you chose the code  or Try several times The codes you use in e-mail and other sites

If the code is in a sheet then you lost it ,  You must contact support blockchain Ask them to change or restore the code of your wallet

What code are you talking about? Is it the password or the recovery phrase? because you can't just ask blockchain.info to change or restore any of them as to the best of my knowledge, they claim that they don't have an access on your wallet so asking is futile[See the quote below]. Blockchain.info cannot help even if you ask them. The only way for op to access his wallet is to have his recovery phrase or to crack the password.

Unfortunately, we're unable to help you re-gain access to your wallet if you've lost or forgotten your password. This is because we don't have access to your wallet or your wallet password.
Maybe he do mean about on those phrases since those are still considered as codes that would access your wallet.In the situation he do have the identifier and email but those credentials cant really still able to recover the wallet.If you do try to make request on change password or find email you would always be asked on those phrases that had given to you to save up. If you lost up those phrases then expect its nearly impossible or even 0% chances on having no access on the wallet.Just being stated above even blockchain site itself cant help out on this issue.
6475  Economy / Securities / Re: We design, build and install mining rigs in Kuwait, on: October 25, 2017, 04:35:01 PM
How do these differ from the rigs we use now? Even if the internet is different, and I am pretty sure it is not, the rigs still perform the same hashing on the same data. Is there a reason in Iraq to need your rigs, or elsewhere. I am just wondering why you started doing this. Is it hard or illegal there to bring in outside rigs?

We are in Kuwait, not Iraq.

We mine in Kuwait because it has the among the cheapest power in the world. It's very simple.

No it's not so simple. Stop necroposting this scam scheme of yours and beg elsewhere.
You wont get anything here and that's a fact. Very simple indeed! Wink
No idiot would really even transfer $1 on OP's wallet address for sure.If he do really concern on his business proposal then better to do it physically which he do find investors near on the place because no one on this forum would really entrust huge money on random people on the net.We are talking big investments on here and no one would really just go into your place just to check your legitimacy.I would rather spend those amounts on fare on buying my own GPU. It would really be much better for me and thinking off that average cost of electricity on my place would still able to generate me profits.
6476  Economy / Economics / Re: Why people scam on: October 25, 2017, 03:58:11 PM
Getting a job is not possible for everyone, not everyone has family or [friends] to help them and sometimes they will make the bad situations even worse them. If you've ever really needed money and were very desperate, than you probably know that people would let you starve to death rather than give you $5.

It's weird how people won't toss out just a few dollars to help someone in need, yet they'll spend $10000 or more on their pet that has an average life span of under 5 years.

But then again, if you give the person in need money, they'll keep coming back for it. It's a real crap shoot

People scam maybe they are in need but some scam because of a big money is involve.They want to have it in just a second for not thinking of the feelings and situation of others.Maybe they can get that big value of money but rhey dont know that what ever tou sew you will reap.Theres a time for them for to lose what they robbed to the people.

Most of the people scam. People need to more money so it use the way. It will not good for the country. That the reason for the scam. It will use to start increases the black money and country will go down and economy also down. So some one scam it will be affect the other people file and future growth. It will be use to selfies.
So don't do that it affect other people and country growth.     
If you do talk already on the amounts that can affect countries growth then you are talking huge money for you to be able to give effect on it but talking on small scales scamming is really a normal thing and reality that to exist on this physical or either on online world since there are people who do really have criminal minds which they do always think off on how to get money easily instead on doing hard work they would rather decide to scam or decieved other people.

Hello everyone!

We are developers with a though of building a people`s crypto exchange. Devised by people

and built for people. What do you think are the biggest challenges
crypto exchanges face nowadays ? Have you suffered from the exchanges beore? What is your

ideal exchange? What features and option would you love to see if you could start an

exchange? We will build the people`s exchange solely on the vision of the community and your

advice.  Make an impact and tell us how you want us to develop the exchange and what

features to include?
First of all the main important thing for me is the security of the exchange.Make it sure that it would really be reliable and wont be easily be hacked just like what happen on some exchanges back in the previous years and i do believe this thing is the main concern specially on us traders which do make big amounts of trades.In this thing we wont really bother too much if the site security is realiable.Next would be less fees,most people do love this stuff that exchange wont really overcharge their traders or users of the site.Next, the GUI, it should really be friendly and not too heavy just like what we saw on Etherdelta.
6478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If bitcoin can be used in gambling. Is it possible to use it casino? on: October 23, 2017, 06:10:53 PM
ithink theres have casino accepting bitcoin payment for a casino chip like in online casino i encounter that you can buy a chip using bitcoin..
In my opinion, it is not only casinos but there are so many other places as well where you can implement this idea of using bitcoins as mode of payment.

There are likely chances that the owners of casinos start accepting bitcoins in their casinos in coming days. This will help the owners of bitcoin to live more comfortable life as well as it will help the bitcoin to earn more good reputation.
We would really come into that point on where bitcoin would really be accepted on most services here on physical world and it would really be a comfortable stuff for us specially on bitcoin users.For now i havent see any casinos that do accept bitcoin on exchanged for their chips but im rest assured sooner or later they will really adopt such thing knowing that there are already lots of online casinos are accepting bitcoin which means the trend will really expose even more and would possibly be adopted on physical casinos too.

Just hang in there tight my folks!

I still strongly believe that Poloniex has their customers interests prioritized but that they are under immense growing pains at this time.

I've had a (smaller) missing deposit get credited after a week or so.

I hope you all get your tickets solved, as i did mine. and without trashtalking poloniex too much while they work for you. ;-)
Easy to say but not all people do have different issues and situations regarding on their trading activities and its really hard to calm down yourself when you do see your coin is stuck or whatsoever problem you do have on the site which would affect the profitability or even on worst cases you might really lose up big money if you didnt able to manage those coins inside which do really suck at all.For now i havent experience any problem on poloniex and hopefully it wont happen into me.The possible and nearest contact on them is just only on their support system.
6480  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Sending BTC - Transaction confirmed but no funds received. on: October 23, 2017, 04:20:25 PM
Hello, I tried to sent 2 amounts of BTC from my Coinbase wallet to my Wirex wallet over the weekend.

I sent one payment on Saturday and one payment on Sunday - the Sunday one has cleared but the Saturday one hasn't

But for some reason its been over 48 hours and only 1 of 2 amounts I sent have cleared into my Wirex wallet even though they are both showing as Completed on my Coinbase account.

This is the transaction on Blockchain.info for the problem transaction:

https://blockchain.info/tx/be9e8d3e03565ca7f5b3327906f1ef46e4883346983bb88f1c67c1cd08ebd102

Does anyone have any advice for me please? Thanks in advance for your help. I dont fully understand the information being displayed to me on the blockchain.info page above.

The problem transaction you're talking about which is this is already been confirmed so it should be credited on whatever wallet you've sent it to. If it hasn't, you should contact their support as this problem lies on them. Also check if they will halt their deposits and withdrawals to prepare for bitcoin gold.
This is actually right the transactions have been confirmed already which have been said the problem is on the wallet provider on which the bitcoins have been sent.If it doesnt show any balance on the wallet then the problem would really be on them. The best thing to do now is to contact them.Send support ticket regarding on the issue and do provide these proofs regarding on the transfer.I have experience this thing but not on other wallet provider but only on gambling site wallet.It doesnt show the balance even the transactions is already been confirmed.
