681  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency wallets: Can they be hacked?? on: June 24, 2018, 04:46:16 PM
I am very interested to know if cryptocurrency wallets like Bitcoin Core, NEON, Electrum can ever be hacked ?

In the generation we are on today, almost everything can be hacked. The only thing we can do is to minimize or even eliminate the risk of being hacked through avoidance procedures, like keeping your private key out of your computer or laptop and put it to something flash drive, or even get some trezor, or other offline wallets, providing your wallets 2FA and etc.
682  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the price of bitcoin rapidly going down on: June 23, 2018, 01:47:37 PM
The news in term of development are actually decent, with LN getting closer to a release, so I think this is just temporary. Smiley

We all have common answers here, we do have the same thoughts and that is because of FUD news. A lot of FUD news everywhere which lead for weak hands to panic sell their portfolio including all their alternative coins because of lost of trust because of some news they heard to a BIAS mainstream media, but we are not generalizing every media. Bitcoin is real and is decentralized, which means no one ever controls it or manipulate it. If you really believe in bitcoin, never sell immediately, have trust to what you invested.

Many people say the government is not interested in cryptocurrency. Many people think the government has prohibit
crypto to protect investors from risks. Maybe in your country, that's true. But in some countries, especially developing countries, the government just wants to rob your assets. They rob publicly, lawfully and as much as possible. they are really bandits.I'm not afraid what they do. Because we have many ways to fight them. But this world is not as simple as you think.They can kill you if you are demonstrating.
You can ask any vietnamese that : Do you support your government ? I bet 99% answer is never. 1% remaining I'm sure they are goverment employee or their family. Wink

What I can say is the Government of these different countries have no threat about bitcoin, thus making it as a solution to some problems in their country maybe, not because it has high value, but because of its potentiality through the technology behind it, the blockchain technology. These technology might be used to solve a lot of problems in the world.
684  Economy / Economics / Re: The Future of Cryptocurrency on: June 22, 2018, 11:54:55 PM
The future of cryptocurrency is very positive, these cryptocurrency might be used in the future for a purpose of medium when you are paying services of products in the future. This could totally happened, and we cannot deny that fact because we are on this new generation era.
685  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reason of the price fall on: June 22, 2018, 11:52:40 PM
I know about the demand and supply and its the reason a marlet gets different price at different price but what make bitcoin users to lead to this pricefall..I mean once there was 1btc = 500$ and after that I herd some hackers have hacked some exchanges and many scammers also poped out during those days..and this all leads to currenct price of 230$ I hope some peoples will do something to avaood these problems as much as we can

This price falls may be a chance of market manipulation by the whales in the market. That could be possibly happened, or other way is that many individuals first time engaged in cryptocurrency has been so weak hands that they sell immediately their assets because they heard FUD news.
686  Economy / Economics / Re: BITCOIN IS NOT BUBBLE!! on: June 22, 2018, 11:48:02 PM
These individuals telling bitcoin is a bubble are victims of scam through the use of bitcoin. We cannot blame them, because they have experience it. But let us not generalize everything because of the fact that in this industry, there are a lot of scammers especially hackers. So let us be very careful and vigilant as always. Do your own research.
687  Economy / Economics / Re: Investment in Bitcoin vs Investment in Education? on: June 22, 2018, 11:43:18 PM
All of us are wants to have a better life in future! Did you remembered when you are in school you always thought that you need to study hard to get a nice job in order to help your family and for you also to establish your own family. But at this generation you noticed that even though you are working with full time job it is not enough to make better way living. That's why you would try to look in another opportunities that helps you to earn more money for family.

Do you think Investment in education is better or Investment in cryptocurrency especially in bitcoin is much better?

Base of this articles which is better investment in future for you?

Share your thoughts about this.


Bitcoin is viewed from an investment perspective, it is more often compared to gold than it is to other currencies. That is because bitcoin and gold have a lot in common as assets. Both are limited in supply, have functional use and are considered by many, despite their volatility, to be good stores of value. When gold and bitcoin were compared as investments over the last five years, bitcoin greatly outperformed the precious metal, generating an annualized return of 155 percent compared to gold’s annualized loss of 6 percent during the same period. These exuberant returns indicate that bitcoin is getting investors excited about the prospect of placing funds into a brand new asset class.

Bitcoin’s soaring value and its proven investor performance compared to the gold standard, are indicators that it is high time to weigh the opportunities and risks that come with investing in the world’s leading digital currency.

Opportunities:

Many argue that bitcoin, like other currencies, has value only because people perceive it to have value. It is for this reason that many critics view bitcoin’s price development as nothing more than a bubble. However, there are drivers behind bitcoin’s excellent returns that have nothing to do with hype or speculative opportunism.

Why an Education is the Best Investment you can Make

Whether you consider your education a right, a privilege or something you “just need to do” as part of life, you should always consider it an investment. If you think of your future professional life as a business, your education is an integral part in the overall structure and quality of that business.

And it doesn’t matter if you end up working for yourself or someone else, the education element is an investment that provides the tools necessary for you to move forward and become successful. Every expert, leader and big shot in every industry started by learning the basic skills they needed to get the ball rolling, and the same will be true for you.

The Time of Your Life  

Besides having a great time with new experiences, connections are the first reason your education is a worthwhile investment. Quite often, college years are networking disguised as fun. It may not seem like you’re making professional connections for the future, but it’s not uncommon to reconnect with the people you shared this experience with later on, especially in the age of social networks.

Decision-Making Leverage

Smart decisions are crucial for a business to excel, and getting a good education puts you in a position to make the right professional decisions at the right time. Being educated in your field gives you a sense of accomplishment and confidence, which enable you to make decisions with confidence moving forward.

Career Boost

It goes without saying that an education is a great investment if you plan to work in a career for someone else. Depending on your career choice, a formal education might be a must-have to even get into the field. But even if it isn’t, taking that extra step will get you started higher up the ladder and will help you move up at a faster pace.

Future Security

Security is a word you see come up regularly when speaking about education and employment. Whether you want to go out on your own or work for someone else, that education will be there to break your fall if something goes wrong or doesn’t work out.

If you lose your job or your entrepreneurial attempt falls flat, an education means you get a second chance and it won’t take nearly as long to make it happen. If you think of your career and your financial life like a business, it’s easy to see why an education is the best investment you can make in yourself.

Thank you!  


Investment in Education is the most wonderful thing we can only have because this is a treasure than no one can ever steal or falsely claim that theirs. Investment in cryptocurrency in the other hand is different, it is different aspect because we are engaging on it because of the need of money, so we must need to distinctly differetiate the two in able to eliminate confusion.
688  Economy / Economics / Re: what is the future of virtual currency like bitcoin ? on: June 22, 2018, 06:44:37 PM
As a digital payment system virtual currency has its own reputation. Bitcoin raised as strong virtual currency in 2010. Today’s global currency is developed in different way and comparing with others currency bitcoin is like more valuable than gold. Good reflection and better control system can make more valuable in economic sector. now by the help of bitcoin selling and buying system is easier than other transection. At age of technology we can collect or hire so many proficient worker for the purpose of different sector’s development and then we can provide their salary through bitcoins because of its popularity.
On above this conversation we don’t need to worry about future of  virtual currency or bitcoins.

It is really possible that in the future time, bitcoin together with cryptocurrencies will be the medium of payment to buy products and services not just in only one one country but in the whole world. This will surely becomes a reality after a moderation and assessment of countries' governments of what is really is cryptocurrencies and what can it give to the world. What benefits can it result if we as humans used it as part of our daily lifes? That is the question that is need to be answered and many more.
689  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is Telegram the new measure of ICO success? on: June 22, 2018, 05:01:25 PM
Been seeing projects' Telegram groups blow up and I think that's an attribute of success. Personally, when I find a project, I do judge them by their social media presence. How active a telegram channel does say a lot with their demand.

With the rise of groups exceeding Telegram's 50k member cap...what do you guys think?

Article: https://news.bitcoin.com/telegram-followers-the-new-metric-for-cryptocurrency-success/

Telegram is not just the only social media existed, so you should not be solely check the members of telegram then, okay! You are willing to invest. No no no my dear, be more doubtful or skeptical. Assess the ICOs existence participation in Facebook, Twitter, Telegram, etc. Because to think about, prospet investors are anywhere. They can be scrolling in facebook, tweeting on twitter or etc.
690  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it better to have many altcoins or it is enough to have few? on: June 22, 2018, 04:23:11 PM
I know that there are many kinds of alternative coins existing today, but is it better to have that many coins instead of having just a few? What are the benefits and harm in having that many alternative coins?

It is the best that you have more than 10 alternative coins. Why do I say so, you my friend, need to know about diversification, this for you to enable to gain profits more and when one or two investments of yours has failed or incurred loss, then the other investments of yours with gained profit will compensate the others. This is for your cryptocurrency portfolio to really have a outstanding performance.
691  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you selling your altcoins so soon? on: June 22, 2018, 03:46:03 PM
I here and see that a lot of people are selling their altcoins for this reason or for that reason. In some cases I here that people are even spending their altcoins to buy Bitcoin. Now that one really has me confused. To me it's way to early to be selling your altcoins. It's like selling an original painting before it even gains in value or while it is still gaining in value. What smart investor does that unless they are selling out of fear or because they are desperate. For me I am holding all of my coins for now because it is way to early to even think about selling your altcoins; what say you?

So tell me, why are you selling your altscoins so soon?

They surely are, that they do not really know what they are doing. Remember guys, you are here in the cryptocurrency industry. The most volatile investment industry among all, which means if you buy an alternative coin or either bitcoin, no one could ever know but the price of how much you bought might be lesser before you sell it. It could be that case. Remember to research always. Investigate and have cryptocurrency skepticism before investing in an alternative coin.
692  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto is For Risk Takers on: June 22, 2018, 03:04:21 PM
I seen lots of people are panic and selling and spreading FUD . But based on my experience people who really dare to take risk only won here .
Wise and daring investors are still searching for good potential coins to invest while its really cheap were greedy people are panic and spreading FUD
Finally people who dare to invest bitcoin even when the price of 100$ they created fortune here . Its completely daring and vision not at aall luck . SO if you are having real vision and want to make milestone in life then be here in crypto and support other wise please quit .

For those who just quits or sells immediately their hodl alternative coin because the market is down, I am sorry with you guys but you are in the cryptocurrency market and industry. Whoever stays are risk takers, the technique here is to have confidence to your bought alternative coin, you bought it for a reason. If it is a long term hodl, then short term increase and decrease and unrealized gains and losses does not define. Just hold men. Hodl.
693  Economy / Economics / Re: Why we must study Economics at University? on: June 22, 2018, 01:17:47 PM
Most probably in this section are users that are interested mostly in Economics, so I want to know why Economics attracts you?


Economics is fun to some individuals for the fact that it is something complex. You will study technicalities of government changes of prices, inflation, General Price Index, through different perspective of Government Spending, Personal Consumption, etc. Because a lot of persons like hard things, they want to engaged in complicated things, learn it. They want to dig deeper to the reason of the economics itself. Curiousity itself leads us to the direction.
694  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin a Bubble? on: June 15, 2018, 07:35:07 PM
Wall street grows ever more certain Bitcoin is a bubble. I can't even say they're wrong. Flirting with $6000 per coin and low economic utility? For as dumb as Jamie Dimon sounds every time he says anything about Bitcoin, the tulip bubble analogy looks less and less inappropriate all the time.

Quote
In a note to clients published on Thursday, analysts at UBS took a long look at Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and the blockchain technology that underwrites this whole enterprise.

Looking only at pricing, UBS said that, “a twenty-fold increase in bitcoin prices in just two years, and an absence of any fundamental economic backing, cryptocurrency prices are almost certainly a bubble.”

Blockchain utility doesn't make crypto not a bubble. That'll be important to remember for people buying now expecting to make big gains at this cost basis, and there's real risk there.

Nah! Bitcoin will never be a bubble. This individuals or groups making or spreading these kind of news are having problems with bitcoin, first they might be scammed using a bitcoin and now, they want revenge and also gives false awareness to everyone. Second, they might be uninformed. The problem is many knew bitcoin, its name, and you can earn from it. But only few has truly understand its purpose, use, potentiality and ability as an investment medium. And when the time bitcoin burst its price, these persons who are telling bitcoin is bubble will surely get their words back.
695  Economy / Economics / Re: why the state does not print a lot of money? on: June 15, 2018, 07:15:02 PM
why the state does not print a lot of money? than debt to other countries. is not it easier to make money than debt and ultimately burdens the state?

whether if printing money will have an impact on the money itself? or will it impact the value of the money in the eyes of the world?

Simple, If a government of a certain country, finds a solution to poverty is to print a lot of money, well they are wrong. Definitely wrong and the bad choice of action. Imprinting a lot of money does not solve the solution of poverty but rather making it more worst through its result called inflation. In inflation, prices of commodities especially the needed ones like rice, water will be more expensive because of the increase of supply of paper money in an economy, thus should increase their purchasing power at some point. But it will not.
696  Economy / Economics / Re: Factors that affects the value of bitcoin... on: June 15, 2018, 05:36:12 PM
Hey guys,  i need some suggestions and opinions about this.

One of the most commonly basis of price changes is the law of demand and supply. Maybe some of you heard about this, it was taught in college, its the basic law in economics. Demand and Supply has inverse relationship. Example if a supply of one cryptocurrency or bitcoin has been going to low, and the demand of it becomes higher, then the price of the cryptocurrency will technically grow. Its the basics. You can also research to know more.
697  Economy / Speculation / Re: SELL EVERYTHING!!!!! on: June 15, 2018, 04:46:10 PM
I'm gonna be honest with you all , i have been trading/investing since 2017.



I earned about 110.000 by trading and basically lost it all, i decided to sell the rest and just quit. I'm gonna explain why, this cryptocurrency market
is very manipulative and can easily be controlled and it will never stop. The icos/alts will always keep sucking all the btc cash so it will always be hard for btc to grow and
dominate.



This market is made to make money and profit from noobs it's like a bitconnect scheme. Every dollar that is made by someone, someone will lose money. Every dollar that
is made in this system will be sold to fiat and if there is low btc buy power it will mean that btc will only keep going down. This market is basically made to make
money from new users like a scheme. For example can you actually believe that if you would've put 10k usd into bitconnect you would have a monthly return of about 4500
every month by lending? This is unbelievably high which again means for every btc/dollar you lend out into this cryptocurrency system = someone will lose money that's
the main reason this market won't be there for long. Because it's basically a pyramid scheme.
.

It is quite true that in cryptocurrency, market is very volatile BUT the market is not manipulative in nature. Maybe for those whales or persons or individuals having a lot of investment in cryptocurrency would have do that but I am pretty sure not everyone of them. One example I can say is that they really just hodl is the Winklevoss brothers, the one who idealize the facebook way back then and are really interested in the cryptocurrency market.
What I can say is not to just tell that because you lost your money on trading, you will have that domino effect in all cryptocurrency in the market. We should not generalize the totality of cryptocurrency.
698  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: People move out from cryptocurrency! on: June 15, 2018, 02:31:41 PM
I have heard from many people that there are many people to leave the cryptocurrency.

Is that right?
If  yes then what are the reason behind on it?
If no then why people spreading that kind of news regarding cryptocurrency?

I might consider this as either a good news and bad news. To answer that first, it is the truth. There are a lot of number of persons who are getting out of cryptocurrency and we cannot blame them for they have their own reasons, and I think one of it is the most common among all, they lose their money in crypto because of scammed or they incur loss rather than profit. It seems sad to here, but this is currently happening right now.
699  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you approve this strategy: sell alts buy btc? on: June 14, 2018, 11:05:33 AM
It depends, if bitcoin seems to have a much lower price and I think I can buy many bitcoins with my altcoin, why not? You see, bitcoin has more potential than alts since it's the original cryptocurrency recognized in the world, and the price of altcoins also depends on bitcoin so buying the original one is much better than keeping the newly made ones.

You are right man, alternative coins price varies on the price transition of bitcoin, so its like, alternative coin is dependent to bitcoin. This is for me, somehow a problem to ccryptocurrency, even since I can already tell that because bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency making a history in the industry of business commerce, makes it more potential for price growth. But let us not be so fools, there are a lot of potential alternative coins out there who are solutions to some problems in the world.
700  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: actual number of people using Bitcoin? on: June 13, 2018, 01:51:30 PM
Is there a way to determine the number of people who are actually using Bitcoin till date? Who would have access to such information? Meaning a way to find out, how many new people have used Bitcoin in 2016 , so that we can say exponential growth is natural not artificially created by hoarders.

Through the technology we have today, may be it is possible indeed. Well, we cannot also deny the fact that there might also individuals who are using bitcoin only for a purpose. What is it? Then that is , its bitcoin true purpose of existence. To be used for remittance of money without any third party. So we can also conclude, some individuals also just buy bitcoin from the money they want to send to their love ones, then the receiver, just convert it to his or her economic currency used in their country.
