I even received 500 TRX for fee on Liqui.io. Few months ago, Liqui exchange was giving away 500 TRONs for free and I even got them without doing anything. Based on the market reaction over TRON it looks like a promising project. TRON ICO was last September, so if TRX can break the 10 currencies in the cryptocurrency market then it must be an amazing coin. 

Have you try Cryptopia or EtherDelta? These two exchanges are kind of low level underground exchanges but man, they offers a lot of coins. You should check them out. I know you must find what you are looking for there.

I prefer using doing both because trading requires only few minutes in a day while signature campaign takes about 3-4 hours a day. If you look in to both of them you'll understand doing both is about 4-5 hours a day. So, why not do the them both for more income. ehh

Since you don't want lose you money because you are beginner I suggest you should invest you money in top 2 or 3 major coins in the market. That way you can easily start learning the market. And don't forget to go and watch YouTube videos about "how to start bitcoin trading" or something like that, in that category.

There are some many cryptocurrency trading sites out there but I found the HitBTC and BitFinex to the best for me.
So, if Binance, Bittrex, Poloniex, and BitFinex are no longer working for you go to: HitBTC.com - In fact, HitBTC is my favorite trading site.

Trading bitcoin and altcoin is fun when you really know how to do it. Trading coins is all about buying the dip or fast rising coins and sell them for higher price. Trading is all about buying low and selling high. And when you know your ways and how to do it - it's pretty much easy like A, B, C, & D!

Trading is very profitable though these days, you just have to know your ways in other to make huge profits. The market is shifting from one coin to another and so that is what you too should be doing. Whenever the market rotates to another coin you should just jump in too, if not then you are going to be sitting next your coins losing money. 

I recommend you to be investing on the top major coins in the market because their values don't just fall like that without a strong reasons. Even if their values fall it won't take long before they recover because they have very large userbase and huge market capitalization.

Yeah, when you are trading bitcoin and altcoins for profits you should buy the price dip and sell later when the price grow higher. The trading is all about buying low and selling high for profits.

When you find the good ICO it is more profitable than trading altcoins. With good ICO you could easily turn your initial investment 10x in 3 months. Investing in ICO is very profitable when you know how to find the right ICO. And if we are talking about risk pertaining investment, I think ICO too is the first again because if you mistakenly invest your money in SCAM ICO you gonna lose all your investment. So, if you are a beginner you should start with altcoins first before moving to investing in ICOs.   

Cryptocurrency Market In The Green, Total Market Cap Bounces Back



Cryptocurrency markets are on the up today, Jan. 12, with almost all of the top 20 coins on CoinMarketCap in the green, and the highest gain reaching almost 37 percent at press time.

The market had been in the red as recently as Jan. 11, with almost $100 bln in losses in total market capitalization over a three day period. The dip on early on Jan. 11 brought the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies down to around $630 bln. Total market cap is now recovering, climbing to around $720 bln at press time.





Biggest Gains

Ripple (XRP), the second most valuable altcoin on the market, is showing almost 18 percent growth over the past 24 hours to press time. The altcoin saw a price dip yesterday, in part due to false reports that South Korea banned crypto trading in the country, where Ripple is traded at high volumes.

Additionally, CoinMarketCap’s Jan. 8 decision to remove several South Korean exchanges from its price calculations -- due to “divergence in prices” --  caused the average price of Ripple in particular to appear to drop suddenly. CoinMarketCap’s delayed announcement of the decision also reportedly led to panic-selling that worsened the drop.

Since Ripple’s Jan. 11 announcement of their partnership with MoneyGram, a fiat payment transfer service, the coin is showing recovery, trading at an average of $2.07 at press time.





Altcoin Stellar, ranking 8th on CoinMarketCap, is showing 33.34 percent growth over 24 hours, and is selling for about $0.67 at press time. The price spike can likely be attributed to a Jan.11 CNBC segment, where Bitcoin investor Brian Kelly predicted that Stellar is the next coin to buy after Ripple’s Moneygram deal success.

Stellar also retweeted the segment in response early morning today, Jan. 12:

    Enjoy watching while still HOT and not taken down... 🤪https://t.co/TKk7FbJd6Q

    Why #BuyStellar ?

    - “Faster and cheaper than Bitcoin.”
    - @moneygram deal
    - @IBM deal

    Back to over a dollar soon...#stronghands pic.twitter.com/MJtBzUhVNm
    — Stellar Lumens (@StellarLumens) January 12, 2018

Altcoin EOS, in the 10th spot on CoinMarketCap, has seen the most significant 24 hour gains of the top 20 coins, boasting almost 37 percent growth. The altcoin’s performance is apparently a response to hype from a Jan. 11 tweet hinting at a secret announcement forthcoming on Jan. 12 from Seoul, South Korea.

EOS is currently trading at an average of $14.40.


Small Losses

The only two coins in the top 20 that are in the red are ICON, with a loss of 2.93 percent, currently selling at $9.45, and Raiblock, down 4.06 percent and selling for $25.49 at press time.

Bitcoin (BTC)  is up a modest 3.53 percent, trading at press time at an average of $14,123.10. The coin remains down from its December $20,000 high, and has been hovering between $14-15k since the Dec. 22 market dip, when BTC slid as low as $12,850.

Japanese E-Commerce Giant Launches 7-Asset Cryptocurrency Exchange



Japanese e-commerce conglomerate DMM Group has launched a homegrown cryptocurrency exchange called DMM Bitcoin in a second market venture.

Following the release of its mining operation in September 2017, DMM formally opened its exchange orderbook Thursday Jan. 11, offering seven cryptocurrencies and 14 trading pairs.

DMM Bitcoin has a potential customer base of 27 mln existing DMM clients in addition to outside interest. Currently on offer are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, NEM, Ripple, Ethereum Classic and Bitcoin Cash.

The company’s announcement of the exchange promises promotional benefits to early sign-ups, including a 1,000 yen account credit and select fee-free operations.

The project had been in the pipeline for several months and comes as Japan continues to cement its status as the world’s new regulated cryptocurrency trading hub.

Commenting on the launch, English-language podcast Thinking Crypto forecast that it would be around a week until the exchange’s volume was reflected in prices.


Crypto in Japan

Cryptocurrency exchanges have become big business for Japan’s economy over the past six months, with the introduction of a licensing scheme that has attracted considerable interest.

Pundits are also keenly aware of the benefits Bitcoin potentially holds for consumer culture. Last month, analysts from Nomura even suggested Bitcoin was adding 0.3 percent to Japan’s GDP.

China's Internet Finance Association Warns on 'Initial Miner Offerings'



A self-regulatory organization in China is warning about a new kind of mining-focused cryptocurrency offering.

The so-called "initial miner offerings" are said to have caught on since regulators in China banned initial coin offerings (ICOs) back in September of last year, according to a new statement from the National Internet Finance Association of China (NIFA). The idea behind an initial miner offering is that mining hardware – used for the energy-intensive process by which new transactions are added to a blockchain – is sold and intended to process a particular cryptocurrency or token.

The new model, according to the group, constitutes a "disguised ICO," according to a translated version of the statement. It noted the prevalence of promotional events and materials published around such offerings, warning consumers to beware of the risks – particularly in the light of the regulatory action taken last fall.

"[The] Internet Finance Association called for the vast number of consumers and investors [to] recognize the nature of the relevant model...to enhance awareness of risk prevention, rational investment...[and] not blindly follow the trend of speculation," the group said.

Last year, the same organization warned against ICOs, noting that organizers might use fraudulent information to sell their tokens. Just days after that, Chinese officials moved to ban the blockchain use case.

Former Customers Sue Crypto Exchange Vircurex Over Frozen Funds



Four years after cryptocurrency exchange Vircurex lost its funds due to alleged hacks, the firm is being sued by its former customers.

In a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court in Colorado, a former Vircurex customer accuses the exchange of breach of contract, conversion of funds, fraud and unjust enrichment. The suit explained how only a few of the account holders had received their funds after the exchange froze all withdrawals due to a claimed lack of reserves. At present, the frozen accounts contain a combined $50 million.

The exchange has allowed customers to deposit funds over the past four years, and continues to operate today, according to the lawsuit.

In 2014, the exchange reported it was near insolvency after losing large amounts of its reserve funds. According to the lawsuit, part of this loss came from "two purported hacks the exchange experienced in mid-2013." Yet more of its reserve funds were depleted by large withdrawals by some of its customers.

As a result, the Vircurex froze withdrawals of bitcoin, litecoin, feathercoin and terracoin. At the time, the company stated it would begin refunding users using its own profits, according to as previously reported by CoinDesk.

The filing claims the exchange refunded small amounts of cryptocurrencies to a few of its customers, but the bulk of the funds owed remain with the exchange. The last time the exchange transferred any funds to its customers was in January 2016.

Furthermore, the plaintiff, Timothy Shaw, claimed that the exchange was refusing to speak to its customers, despite several customers making attempts to contact the exchange over the past four years.

The suit continued:

    "As detailed herein, rather than repay the Frozen Funds, Defendants took steps to string along Plaintiff and the Class with deceptive statements and false promises, and made efforts to cover their tracks and create impediments designed to deter accountholders from bringing suit to recover the Frozen Funds, and efforts to ultimately attempt to vanish without a trace."

Vircurex's steps to prevent its customers from suing included stating it was incorporated in Belize, which it is not, as well as indicating it might be based in Beijing. The lawsuit states the exchange is actually based out of Germany, but has never been legally incorporated in any jurisdiction, meaning it is not recognized as a formal business by any government.

In addition to the exchange itself, the lawsuit names its two operators as defendants, identifying one as Andreas Eckert and referring to the other as "John or Jane Doe."

US Finance Regulators Form Crypto Working Group, Says Mnuchin



U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Friday that the Financial Stability Oversight Council, a government body that assesses financial system risks, has formed a working group focused on cryptocurrencies.

Mnuchin remarked on the process during an appearance at The Economic Club in Washington, D.C. after being asked about the topic of bitcoin.

"We are very focused on cryptocurrencies," Mnuchin explained, pointing to discussions with other regulators within the U.S. government and later stating: "We want to make sure that bad people cannot use these currencies to do bad things."

Mnuchin added that the issue was one that the U.S. government would engage with the G-20 international group as well. As previously reported, Mnuchin's French counterpart called for more action from the G-20 in December, highlighting "a risk of speculation" at the time.

On that subject of speculation, Mnuchin said that he is concerned about the issue as well.

"I want to make sure that consumers who are trading this understand the risks because I am concerned that consumers could get hurt."

During the remarks, Mnuchin also suggested that the Federal Reserve is unlikely to develop its own digital version of fiat currency – a topic under discussion at a number of central banks worldwide – in the near future.

OFFICIAL: No Cryptocurrency Trading Ban in South Korea, Government Says

The South Korean government’s official announcement came after a massive backlash and criticism against the Ministry of Justice, which independently announced its plans of banning cryptocurrency trading. The Ministry did this without the consent of the Ministry of Strategy and Justice and other government agencies involved in the South Korean cryptocurrency regulation task force.

According to the Blue House, more than 60,000 citizens voted in a petition to fire the head of the Ministry of Justice Park Sang-ki, who released a premature statement earlier today, on January 11, that the government will implement a policy to shut down cryptocurrency trading.

Almost immediately after Minister Park released his statement, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance emphasized that it does not support or agree with the decision of the Ministry of Justice to ban cryptocurrency trading. It also added that the Ministry of Strategy and Finance only found out about the statement of Minister Park through media reports, and the decision to ban cryptocurrency trading was not agreed upon by the task force.

Social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter are doing all the advertisement for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in general. The bitcoin doesn't need TV advertise because many people are doing it free on social media. For the past few weeks, the bitcoin was trending on both facebook and twitter due to many people were talking about it. Imagine, if that was a paid promotion how much that would cost the promoters. The bitcoin is a revolution where anyone can involved, not a product that some company is trying to sell.

People sell bitcoin because they have different motivations about bitcoin that's all. Some people buy and sell bitcoin for a living (traders), while some are selling their own because they are in need of money to solve their financial problems. Lastly, some buy bitcoin to spend to feel the joy and experience.

No one can hack the bitcoin or the bitcoin network.
The bitcoin was created based on the peer-to-peer technology.
Bitcoin is also secure to the level where no person or computer program that can break it.
Bitcoin was created with strong cryptography and very complex algorithms that runs completely on blockchain.
