I just read down through the thread and while its interesting its also worrying. I have heard that there is a lot of FAKE gold and silver coins and bars coming out of China at the moment and not just for new designs but also for older designs. I know there are a lot of tests that can be done for Silver but im not aware of them for Gold. Obviously if this is a fake bar its of very high standard to pass the jewelers tests apart from 1? I wonder what that test with the apparatus was? this is worrying for you, I feel for you  |

My brother bought bitcoins a few ago and told me all about it
but I couldnt understand what he was telling me, it just didnt make sense.

well personally I like SIA and for me its good to see a currency actually
make it through the initial development stage and closer to working.
SIA are actually offering bounties for different development stages
and problems.
Its good to see positive movement and development.

What y'all going to do before august 1, and after? I really hope that most of them will sell their btc.
A lot of threads are being created with the same topic. Why you asking what we/you should do before and after August 1? There's nothing we need to do but just to keep on holding our bitcoins in a wallet where we hold private keys. And well, you are suggesting people to sell so that you can buy at dip? good points . . .AGAIN. . . you just need to secure your bitcoin and hold. Possibly be in a position to buy some more if there is a big sell on. |

Well if you had asked the question
what is the most popular anon coin?
the results would have been most definitely MONERO
everyone knows how much its used on the dark-net

Waiting price dip to buy more LTC. If we look at LTC/BTC chart price changing hardly. It is in range between 0.01/0.02 ltc/btc from March.
I sold half on last 0.02 ltc/btc
And I probably switch to ETH because it can show more BTC grow in future.Also hopefully we will see a good dip after hacks on ETH.
I think LTC will rise only in fiat price,because BTC rise. If it falls to 0.014 than it will probably rise again to 0.021/0.022
Here at 0.014 I probably will buy some LTC.
I dont think LTC/BTC will be more than 0.022 or will receive support here for long.
But it seems anyway ETH / BTC pair grow more.And it receiving support at higher levels.
well there was just a dip earlier today to just under $40 so I too my chance and moved some bitcoin over to litecoin! as people mentioned previously litecoin should be a good option for hedging against bitcoin . . . |

For now I can only wait until ICO Dimcoin is done. I am happy to join this project. Hopefully ICO success. And many investors who invest DIMCOIN .. I am sure after iCO finished DIM coins will be more expensive again.
i think you have your own choice, to me as i am not going to sell my coin as soon as the ICO ends to me i will wait for some time and if the price is that is will continue increasing and therefore then i will wait. i am also sure that this project will be more successful. We have the same point bro, after Dimcoin ICO ends I will wait for the price to get high, surely this is a good altcoin and it will be very successful , soon in the future it will be a strong coin. Yes I agree It should be a strong altcoin going forward. Is there any news that DIMCOIN will be listed on any particular exchanges sometime soon? |

would I be presumptions in thinking that all the exchanges
are going to be handling a possible chain split?
|

|

i dont mind people asking "personal" questions because we are all anonymous here on BCT  anyway, yes I have a little play fund on an exchange for trading and exchanging etc. Its about 0.1 BTC |

best altcoin to collect?
Well it depends on what exactly you want from your collection
DO you want a quick high volume return
or
is it something you want to hold long term?
Here is my 2c
pick something other than ripple in the top 10 on coinmarketcap,
these probably wont give you a rapid high volume return but they
have a proven record and are being constantly developed. A good
bet for long term holding IMO
Ripple is valued very low so you can buy a billion of them for a low buy-in
I think this is why people tend to push ripple but you really need a billion XRP
to see a quick high volume return.

The question ceases sucw interesting. I think the first common point between Bitcoin and gold is that they are limited, Bitcoin has only 21 million, so is gold. They vary by market, but in general they are not inflation but deflation. Therefore, both Bitcoin and Gold are good investment channels to protect assets against financial fluctuations. Also I think they have in common is rare. A few months ago Bitcoin prices reached an ounce of gold. And now it's twice. Amazing. If I were to choose between Bitcoin and Bitcoin, I would choose Bitcoin because I believe it will continue to increase, which would be a good investment for the future.
I think you are right. Ofcourse there are many, many differences between gold and bitcoin. But there are also few things common: * they are both rare * they are both independent of local (national) economy * they are both "safe heavens" for investing while the "normal economy" has problems or is expecting problems. the above points are good but that is really all that Gold and Bitcoin have in common. Any market trends for either of the two would be completely independent of each other. |

Look at the charts, suddenly all green and pumped a lot
This is not good to the ecossystem of cryptos in a long term, the big whales are playing a lot, this is not the "organic" market
we have to evolve a lot if we want the cryptos to be in real world, used by people in general
What do you think guys?
Well such is life, it cannot be avoided and to coin a phrase "money makes money" but these actions in the markets can be beneficial even to us minnows we can ride the waves created by the whales and we too can make gains for ourselves. It just takes a while to learn how to react correctly to these waves! |

well I have been watching closely the $ value of Litecoin
and over the last 5 or so days it has been very stable at
around $45, this gives me confidence that others have
confidence in it.

Yes, I do not believe it is decentralized. Bitcoin's anarchist days are long gone.
I used to believe that Bitcoin was the gold of the modern age. That is to say, gold is seen today as a means of storing wealth, not as a means of shopping together with the invention of money; Both by people and by central banks.
In modern times, I thought that bitcoin, a digital value based on hash power, could be seen as a means of storing wealth.
But,
A thought: the gold is a certain element in the periodic table. Throughout the ages, people have tried to make gold with alchemy, though technology has not progressed so far. The only way to get gold is mining.
Bitcoin is not. As a result, it continues to be developed by a software and core team. So after they come out, they can say that bitcoin is changed from now on. Hard fork, soft fork, segwit 1,2,3,4,5 can do everything. The bitcoin in your hand can also be split into 10 forks. Contrary to gold, they can give bitcoin any shape as they wish. Powerful states and corporations, rich people, deep powers, who can control and manipulate the world by affecting the world as if they are asking the developers of the bitch.
Bitcoin core is not in one place, but I seem to hear you say it is scattered. After all, who is more likely to have the power of mining and bitcoin if he can not afford it?
Is Bitcoin a decentralized system? On the contrary, it is necessary to think about what will evolve as a central system in which your wealth is governed.
I guess you don't understand what "decentralized" means, cryptocurrencies are all about consensus and open source - if you don't like the current network, you can always make your own fork with your own rules and see if other people will like it. Current majority of Bitcoin users supports Core, so it's not a problem if they have some influence. Also, it's not like developers have some master key to Bitcoin, they can't do anything to existing blockchain, no one can, they can only release new versions, and if people will not agree with it, they simply won't use it. I think this is a good and relevant response, the key bit mentioned is "open source". Bitcoin is finite, there is going to be only 21,000,000 its not going to be like centralised ripple for instance where the developers release a block of tokens or coins whenever they like. This is key. |

bitcoin is not a 100% perfect system but hopefully the future will iron out its issues. I understand that it would be great if there wasnt a total of 21,000,000 coins and that each $0.05c was called 1 bitcoin but its the system and it has to be thought of differently than FIAT and that means its $ value also to a point needs to be ignored. if you believe that its going to be widely adopted in the future, buying into it now with $100 will be insignificant in 5 years time or less even! only spend what you can afford to loose |

Why Can’t Cryptocurrencies Replace FIAT?
because governments and central banks control the monetary system
and the financial infrastructure is based on FIAT. I get paid from my
day job in FIAT, I buy my groceries in FIAT, I pay my bills in FIAT.
I cannot drive to the fuel station and buy petrol with BTC or LTC or
any other currency other than FIAT.
I do believe that "Crypto" is the way of the future but as others have
mentioned it wont be anything decentralised, it will be controlled by
governments and central banks.

According to the research, "Litecoin was announced in 2011 with the goal of being the 'silver' to bitcoin's 'gold'. At the time of writing, Litecoin has the highest market cap of any mined cryptocurrency, after bitcoin." Definitely, the currency will be viable for the next decades since its convertible to BTC and current currency, yet in different forms.
This ^ Since its inception litecoin was 'just a bitcoin clone', however still here, still strong, with SegWit active in bitcoin and litecoin I believe it makes the two even more valuable. yes that sounds right. I think is true that they will be tradable against each other also. I like Litecoin and what the developers are doing, it was the second currency I bought into so I have faith in it now. |
