6621  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I never sold my First bitcoin. Are you also emotionally bound to bitcoin? on: July 01, 2018, 07:47:38 PM
It has been 2 years that I bought my First bitcoin. I have never been able to sell or trade it. Is it only me who is emotionally binded or does this happened with anyone else?

If you have bought bitcoin like 2 years ago then you are still in the positive side. So it only make sense that you are still not thinking of selling it although its better if you at least sold the half during the December madness of 2017.

Also, is it a good thing to be emotionally attached so much to Bitcoins?

The good part is that you hold it for such a long time that you are still getting profits by today. But you should use some strategy on how to take advantage of bitcoin and make a lot of money. Just saying.

Wonder though how much bitcoin you are holding?
6622  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what to do when the market is weakening now on: July 01, 2018, 02:43:14 PM
the current crypto market is so weak, there is no increase in the price of crypto, even the price of crypto is getting down, what should we do when the market weaken at this time?

If you know how to play this market, then perhaps you can do day trading, but remember the risk involved. If you are not used to it then take advantage of the current dip, buy cheap coins specially tokens that has the potential to be pump-and-dump in December. So just hold on it, you don't need to spend so much money on them and you can buy a lot since they are really at a discount right now. Then just wait for the perfect time before the market exploded again and sell them for good profits. As for bitcoin and ethereum, buy as many as you can and continue to HOdL as well.

Hi everyone,

We all been there and still do it but everyone does things differently Cool. That is when I was in my FOMO mentality I was sleepless and agitated. How did you experience it? So curious to know Grin

Last December or prior to that, FOMO was very real. You will see that everyday bitcoin rose like $500-$1000 or even more. Personally, I was able to get on board before the madness that was December. So I didn't FOMO that much however, I was really amazed as how many irrational buyers are there around that. time. Well maybe being agitated in not good though. I think its better to used our common sense and think everything and not just FOMO in my opinion.
6624  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How to know a new bounty on: July 01, 2018, 10:30:55 AM
Guys,  I usually see  'new' on most bounties, but once I  clicked on it. I will realize that it already two, three weeks old or even a month. How do I find new bounties immediately they are posted.

You may want to check this link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3998963.0 - It contains a table of new bounties created by tvplus006. He usually updated it with the latest bounties. He really did good by collating new campaign. There's also another member who already collating the same data, however, I totally forgot the link. Will definitely share it to you once I found it. Good luck bounty hunting.

6625  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KYC for bounty is BS. on: July 01, 2018, 09:34:58 AM
I just want to say that KYC for bounty is BS.

Out.

You are correct, I just wanted to advise everyone not to send your personal data just for the sake of what? pennies you going to get in a bounty? It has proven already that those those data can really be share in the dark market and you don't like your personal data being compromised. So I don't understand why bounties now require this bullshit. Please read this: Botched ICO leaks users’ passport data, calls police on guy who found the bug.

I think they are doing it to prevent multi accounts but I don't think people should join those bounty programs where they want the KYC. I wonder if its even legal to give out our Passports or photo ids to some crypto campaigns? Also its not safe to give out our photos ids, they can be easily used for negative activities.

But there are other ways to do it. But let's say they really wanted to do KYC, at least prevent its data leaked because hackers have proven already that they can get it anytime they want and sell the data into the dark market.
6626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Countries that are hostile to Bitcoin! on: June 30, 2018, 10:13:32 AM
They might be hostile to bitcoin or crypto today, but it doesn't mean that they can make a sudden U-turn and adopt bitcoin. Similar to what China did, they are very friendly but we don't know what pushes the government to really made them turn its back against bitcoin and then promoted blockchain. As as what @pooya posted, its looks like there are only a few nations who doesn't accept bitcoin for now and hope that no nation will be added soon on the list.
6627  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How risky to invest in cryptocurrency? on: June 30, 2018, 07:25:56 AM
How risky for beginner to invest in cryptocurrency? What kind of risk factor and what are the precautions?

all investments must have its own risks, as well as for investment in crypto. Most importantly we know how to handle those risks, and we still have to be careful in investing in crypto.

Right every investments has its own risk. Its really up to us on how to mitigate that risk. Others just invest money they can afford, while others put everything. Its just a matter of choice. And as a newbie investors, you must be really be careful otherwise your money will be just be burned in this market. I know for certain that newbies hasn't done any risk management though because they thought that putting their money in this market will yield them good results, however, the market turns into a crypto bloodbath from $19K to $6K. Not good if you are a first time investors in crypto.
6628  Economy / Speculation / Re: discuss the market? on: June 30, 2018, 05:15:50 AM
The market is currently in a deep downtrend, in my opinion, btc may be down to 5k5 then turn up strong! What do you think?

Its true that the market today is not growing but it was just keep on dumping in this next consecutive days but you can take advantage of the cheap prices in the market today since you can invest a huge amount before the market goes back to normal.

I guess that the bright side of it. However, I have said, we started this year very bad, and others says that it replicated 2013/2014 which is one of the darkest side on this young market. So there's nothing more to really talk about but to learn from our past and make the best out of this drip, but more and hope that everything will be back to normal and at least the price could get to $10K at the end of the year.
6629  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: what is Mt. Gox on: June 30, 2018, 03:56:47 AM
i hear a lot of review about this and i dont know what it is so i do a proper research about this. to all people doesnt know about this here is a summary from the google.

Mt. Gox was a bitcoin exchange based in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Launched in July 2010, by 2013 and into 2014 it was handling over 70% of all bitcoin transactions worldwide, as the largest bitcoin intermediary and the world's leading bitcoin exchange.(source wikipedia)

however there is a heartbreaking news in this exchanger they encounter an attack from the hackers and there are many bitcoin was disappear that was really sad and other people think it has a big factor of the downtrend of bitcoin maybe it has.



You don't need to do a proper research because someone already did it for you specially newbies:

Bitcointalk history of MtGox and how a Bitcointalk post caught the MtGox hacker.

Its a very detailed timeline specially the people involved and their history prior to Mt. Gox Heist. I advise everyone to visit that thread so that you will understand how everything started.
6630  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Well, I just got scammed on: June 30, 2018, 01:38:57 AM
I wanted to participate in the Iagon pre-sale.  I joined what I thought was the official Iagon telegram.  Turned out it wasn't.  I followed the instructions on the pinned message, which directed me to send ETH to a specified wallet address.  Turned out it was all a scam, and I lost 5 ETH. 

Really sucks.  The lesson is be careful out there.

Aww. That really sucks man. I'm not aware of Iagon but why did you join the Telegram though? What not look at the official website so that at least you will be safe. This is the first time that I heard this kind of scam being pull off by those criminals. Yes, I'm calling them criminals because they all are a bunch who steal other money. So just be careful out there because scammers are just around the corner.
6631  Economy / Speculation / Re: There's no point in re-testing $1300 on: June 29, 2018, 07:29:59 PM
Their analysis lack merit and to forecast that bitcoin is getting to 1300 anytime sooner look absurd to me. Bitcoin manipulation by the whales can not go far as bringing bitcoin to 1300.

Correct, I don't think that they will have to wait for the price to hit 1300$ before saying that they will buy a bunch. Even today they can do it at 5800$-5900$. Whales will be whales, they love to manipulate whenever they can and if someone see the price today at ripe for the taking, then obviously they will go for it and not to wait for the price to even dip further. I don't know why Tone Vays, maybe he wanted to influence the market again so that he as whales can buy tons of bitcoin in a snap.
6632  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Bloodbath to End on: June 28, 2018, 03:18:18 AM
Well yes, everyone is expecting this blood path should end and should see coins growth back on track at least to the minimum. This current correction is the longest one compared to the past corrections. But if you have seen the hike right after the corrections happened earlier, it would be soothing us. There had been a huge hikes right after these corrections. So hoping for this correction to end and every coin value grow up.

Obviously its the longest because it has covered all of 2018. As compare to last year wherein if my memory serves me right, we didn't experience a month long drought, as bitcoin would tend to regular in about a week or two. Again, all we can do is hope that this nightmare will be over in a snap and the price going back to normal. But in reality, its hard not to think that it may go down the whole 2018 so I'm bracing myself and making the necessary adjustment in my crypto investment portfolio.
6633  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy This Dip or Wait ? on: June 28, 2018, 02:39:41 AM
So BTC and most alts are down 10-25% pretty much across the board from 6:30 est. this morning.

So what do you think guys, buy this dip or wait for more blood?

I prefer investing right now while the market price is currently decreasing because in this way i can earn more profit when the market price goes back to normal.

Definitely that's one success criteria to look at. We should always buy in dips so that we can maximize our profits one the market becomes normal or at least bounce back again. I don't see any more blood in the next weeks or so except for minor price correction. Bitcoin as $6K and ETH at $400 is still a bargain. So don't let this opportunity get away from all of us, invest while you have the funds because one the market makes another significant run, I'm sure that we will be one of those thousands of people who will say yeah I made the right decision.
6634  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is ETH will hit 400$ on: June 28, 2018, 01:52:47 AM
This is not impossible as we’ve seen this coin hit that price several times, but what is for sure is that this coin will always recover so better use this chance to get some.
Everything is possible in crypto due to its volatility. It was around $500 few weeks ago and now it's nearly hitting $400 while sitting at $430+. Before everyone is asking if ETH will hit $400 but now we don't want to hit it back at $400 because that's pretty low from the recent price.

Its now $440 but the support line is too weak. Its really sad to see the price free fall as well, similar to bitcoin. I just got lucky to dump a few of my stash at around $600+ in mid May because I needed money that time. But just like bitcoin though, Ethereum has a good chance to bounce back because we all know that investors are just waiting for that one news that will make the market turn into a bullish one. If that happens then all crypto including Ethereum will recover, but I don't think it will hit 4 digits this year. Maybe a good $800'ish will the best in can go, in my opinion.
6635  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC update on: June 28, 2018, 01:10:00 AM
​​🚨BTC UPDATE!🚨

Conclusion: If BTC will hold 5900$ support, we can expect nice bounced back soon,
also RSI is very oversold so it can happened every moment,
from second way, if too many people start
opening long positions with leverage, whales may push BTC down again so that the stock exchanges do not lose large amounts of money. I do not expecting more decrease than 5000-5400$ zone which is strong support for BTC. Do not lose your patience! I’m pretty sure that good days will come for crypto.
 it many times but i will do that again, we are here on long term, not for short.

I quite believe that this piece of information about the crypto market condition is necessary to raise our hope this time around where the bitcoin and altcoins market is in the dip. Keep doing this to erase panic in the community and keep our hope shining because I know the market will bounced back soon. The BTC price bounced back after moving below $6000, I think that was a major correction.

I think the strong support now is at $6K. And I don't think that it can go down that level again. But the problem I'm seeing is that there's no strong buy support either so I speculate that the price will go hovering around $6K-$6200 for long before we can see another progress. The investors faith are not there, that's why what we see is always a bull trap when everyone thought that we are recovering. Day traders are doing their thing by selling whenever they have the chance to make a profit.
6636  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Vitalik calls Tron a scam in interview on: June 27, 2018, 08:38:44 PM
Well Vitalik being Vitalik, he made a lot of controversial comments before so I don't think that we can made a big fuss about this one. Its his opinion, and maybe he smells something that we can't because for all we know he is ETH man himself. Maybe blurting out in public is not his real strengths but we love him to saying what he really thinks no matters who's going to sideswipe with his comments. Anyone can argue with him, but I wouldn't take him seriously though. If I wanted to invest on TRON then I will do it no matter what people says.
6637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: EOS is Ranked No.1 in China! on: June 27, 2018, 08:20:11 PM
This is just propaganda in my opinion. How can you rank something that hasn't proven its worth yet? How do they based the coins anyways and says that this coin is better than the other? I agree with all the drama the China has been putting up since they made their U-turn on bitcoin. Maybe they are just trying to belittle bitcoin by having their own ranking which I think the community doesn't agree or there could be a lot of arguments surrounding it.
6638  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin prices are falling! on: June 27, 2018, 07:56:11 PM
Hi, friend.

I want to know your about the bitcoin price reducations?
In your view, what do you see about significant reductions in bitcoin prices!?

What can you see from the positive or negative about it?

Thank you!

Significant reduction? The price is still strong when you think that it started at around $700 back in January 2017. But yeah from $20K to $6K is not good because we have lost a lot of money. However, the market can't go on a parabolic rise that's why we experienced this so called crashed.

I see bitcoin prices continue to fall in 2018 and the market is getting worse, I hope the market will recover quickly and bitcoin back to the moon

Well there's a lot of people saying that bitcoin will continue its downtrend. But then again, one positive side is that we can purchase them at a discount and just HODL on it. So once it bounce back, we can sell them making us a lot of money in the future.
6639  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Have we hit the bottom? I think so. on: June 26, 2018, 10:28:33 PM
Okay. That was a good one.
In regards with the question though. I dont think this is the bottom. We may experience a lot more dips if the panic wont be stopped. This is one good way to stop it.
Give them great news. Occupy their time and do not let them look at the price even for just a day.
We can minmize the sellers even if it reaches just small holders. It will still be an impact.

Yep, personally we have see another bottom but we really don't know when it will be because that's how everything works. Negative news brings the worst out of everything to all of us, some panic decided to just sell contributing to bleeding and free fall we have been seeing in the last 6 months. But give them a great news and you will see that it can bounce back in just a matter of days. Again, this is how everything works so we don't really care if it has bottom or not because we all know that it can recover.
6640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Perspective about HODL. on: June 26, 2018, 02:26:06 AM
Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency is a payment system at its core and we should give first priority to use it as a payment system instead of looking to earn from the speculation activities. Bitcoin is valuable today just because the early adopters decided to use their Bitcoins as a payment system instead of holding their funds. As of now I am trying to spend at least 50% of my funds and hold rest of the 50% funds to balance my activities in the crypto sector.

Yes, bitcoin was meant to be a payment system, however, it evolved become a mode of investment for almost all of us that's why the term HODL suddenly pop out and now its part of our history. And I do agree that Holding has its advantages specially for those who doesn't want to trade. But I do believed that this method is best maximize when the price is really low maybe around 2011 and just hold and do nothing up until we made a significant run to almost $20K last year. But today, I don't think that it will give you that amount because the price keeps on fluctuating so for me holding is not the best strategy at this market situation.
