701  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are investors got tired of ICOs? on: August 13, 2018, 09:26:56 AM
I don't believe that financial specialists are burnt out on ICO ventures, exactly right now the market is downtrend and insecure circumstance, hence those coins that enter the market don't give any development and here and now benefit for speculators. By and by, my conclusion.
Lol and that is one funny truth. We just keep seeing ideas and projects being revolved, with some adding a little bit of stuff to what is being done already before but all the same; it would end up being who is able to stay on top of their game eventually since it is not how far but how well. Not all companies end up thriving, as some would not be able to keep up with competition in the long run, which is why it is all about the devs that would go all length to come up with the best.

However, those with very good projects and business model, with team working very hard to keep coming up with interesting developments are the ones that I believe will end up doing very well in the long run. I am still considering most of the very quality exchanges as well though based on how far and well they have increased quickly based on usage after being launched.
702  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto future from July on: August 13, 2018, 04:09:01 AM
I do not think the bear market will end soon. The majority of the subcoins may arrive at the end of the year before they begin to see any increase.
At this point, the price of bitcoin is being lowered further and we all know that it means bigger dumps in the lower extremities. The subcons they have are still in bubbles and you can not expect any increase in them until you get out of those bubbles.
That sounds a bit logical because it will take the market some time to recover again and rise again. Bitcoin started rising a bit in July and we had a rise of more than $2000 in the value till the first twenty days of July. We expected the August to be the same and another rise of more than $2000 was expected but another crash in the price.

Anyhow, I do not think these momentary falls in the vales of bitcoin and other coins will affect the market so badly and we would eventually head towards an accelerated market value. I believe we may find some different trend in crypto markets from this August or in worst case from September. I strongly assume the bottom of current trend is already reached and we may have bouncing back of markets in coming days.
703  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you play online casino? if Yes... on: August 12, 2018, 04:59:28 PM
It is more convenient, I can play online casino wherever and whenever I want.
As long as you have mobile phone and internet data, you can play all you want. This is also for people that doesn't want someone around him when playing. You can win and loss as much as you wanted without anyone close to you knowing about it.

Introverts like myself couldn't have found a better platform than online casinos and betting websites because i hate being in the crowd for games and since people seem to ostracize gamblers i hate to be seen gambling in public.
Online gambling is good for you then, because it provides to be anonymous.
The thing isn’t about being anonymous or not, it is all the effectively that falls on a person’s life. People never going to earn money from this thing. There are hundreds of people and their stories that are quite enough to be a learning lesson for us. We must see them that how they have lost their lives just because of this gambling, doesn’t matter either it is traditional or online.
Yes, even with physical casinos are going to come up with anything, it would just be for some of them getting to have their own cryptocurrency in which gamblers can make use of and get paid with but nothing still beats the fun you can easily have with traditional casinos when you are comparing with online casino platforms.

Online casino which depends on each individual may not be that bad too anyway since most of the time you can do your thing at your own comfort. My choice is online gambling still I heard many of friends are enjoying unlimited in physical casino. One reason here is, I prefer gambling for less expenses.
704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shyness in gambling on: August 12, 2018, 04:12:55 PM
When you're playing with someone's money you need to feel shy about it. Gambling is a way to show yourself a risk taker, here you afford what you can loss. It can be of fun or for profiting, unless you make money without disturbance to the one next to you nothing to shy.

You are not shy to borrow someone's else money just to play, so I don't know how you are going to feel shy about it Lol. And I don't think that gambling is a way to show others that you are a risk taker away, I haven't seen gamblers playing just to show off may except for poker because its you against other players.

But going to a casino for the first time is different, you will feel a bit shy but if you get used to it, I'm sure that in just a matter of hours that shyness will be gone and you will enjoy yourself having touch a casino and you will be addicted to it, that's for sure.
I really do wonder and why would anyone want to borrow someone else's money all in the name of wanting to use it to gamble in the first place, lol ? That is a terrible move to make and that can be so disastrous for such a person. The idea of being shy anyway is normal based on someone's normal behavior to strange people around them.

For instance, I am an introvert, and it takes a lot of time to get to blend with people and get to know them before bringing out my playful side, so being shy at first is normal, but it is a general thing and not just only in gambling.

706  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ether or altcoins? on: June 24, 2018, 08:13:39 AM
I prefer to invest in Etherium and Bitcoin. Ethereum as compared to other altcoins has more potential to hold rather than others that has no assurance to increase its price.Investment in ethereum tends to be safer because the price is more stable. Ethereum is getting stronger with a bigger community so prices are likely to go up and you'll get huge profits.
I was even surprised that some people kept telling him ether is better when ether itself is an altcoin. If he had asked whether he should be investing in bitcoin or altcoins now, that would be a different case entirely.

Nevertheless, it is entirely up to him as to the decision he wants to make, but in any real sense, it is not realistic investing in just one single coin or token anyway, as it is better to at least diversify so as to spread the risk as well as the profit and since a lot of the coins are always going to be doing better than each other anyway.
707  Economy / Economics / Re: How to cope up with the falling prices? on: June 23, 2018, 02:42:23 PM
There are just couple of question I need some answering from people with enough experience in crypto.

Any particular tips on when to invest token when the prices are low?
And how can one manage to hold the tokens even the prices are bleeding?
Is there a specific time where one can pinpoint the best way to accumulate tokens?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

At this point when the markets are down, the best thing to do is to stay away from it and only come back once in a while to check if it has turned green. There are few of the altcoins that when they dip, it indicates that it is time to buy more. Example is the docademic and the Nebula AI.
A market that is highly down is even a great opportunity to invest long into such a market as long as the market has not shown any possibility of death which we all know the answer to that.

Falling prices are normal in any market and those who feel the market will just keep rising or having FOMO rush are simply not getting it till now that unless we get to see real demand for the value of bitcoin as a currency, it is just going to keep being a speculative asset and we will keep having huge fluctuations like this.
708  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it the best time to buy cheaper crypto while Bitcoin is at high price? on: June 23, 2018, 12:58:03 PM
The best picks are the strongest coins that you know that will recover no matter what and has been tested through time even with many bubbles, fork and FUD news. For me, that is ETH  BTC and LTC are my crypto currencies that is worth holding and still at the top no matter how many years has past.
Well, the best pick could be the strongest coin in terms of reliability and rest of mind that you are holding some pretty good quality coin.

But at the same time, I feel the coins or tokens to be holding now are the ones with prospect that just got listed in the market recently but have been dealt with due to the downtrend in the whole market and reason why they are trading far below their ICO price. I have held some Adbank and CBC right now, and I am sure I am not going to be missing on this ones.
709  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price December 2018 on: June 22, 2018, 06:55:29 PM
yes, a lot of speculation and analysis that states like that. if seen last year, it did happen in mid-year, if I am not wrong around August until December become extraordinary for bitcoin. they analyze bitcoin price will reach $20k
Speculations are normal, but I do not see how bitcoin will reach $20k by the end of December.
Yeah, bitcoin is unpredictable but we saw a big move last year because of the uptrend and FOMO, but we should not forget that we are on the other side of things this year, so we should not really expect to see much as it is but rather just chill out and see how events unfold, while those who have enough to keep accumulating can be doing so now.
710  Economy / Speculation / Re: Breakout to 7K coming ! Whales are ready for breakout! on: June 22, 2018, 06:16:07 PM
And we went down almost 4%!
That's why I don't like those kind of threads were people try others buy in, even if they say "don't follow what I'm saying", it is clear what the intention is.
This way you'll get burned 95% of the time!
Buying just because someone in a telegram group is saying so is just plain dumb!
I even wonder why people will keep following others to make decisions rather than learning of ways to make such decisions on their own.

Unfortunately for him since he said he got in, I am sure he has gotten what he is looking for anyway. I keep saying this, trying to trade when you simply do not have the knowledge is like trying to drive on a high way without knowing how to drive. This is an example of how things always end up turning out in those cases.
711  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling in the crypto market on: June 22, 2018, 05:32:39 PM
Gambling is a major industry of the crypto market in the past and the same thing continues. Earlier bitcoin hasn't gained much attention from the common people. It was much used by the gamblers. It is the one that helped with the market circulation of bitcoin during those days contributing to the growth. Things changed as people begin to give acceptance as a valuable asset to invest and for various other purposes.
I totally agree i feel like in the early days of bitcoin there was no real ways, there were no investments where you can actually spend the bitcoin that you either mined or got except for gambling and buying things off the dark net, and i think that usage has continued on and got even more popular as its price started going up, and probably if we can make some statistics or start a survey we will probably find a large number of the people would be using bitcoin for gambling , which shows how much gambling has played a big role in the growth of the bitcoin market.
That which you mentioned actually made gambling to become extremely popular. Back then, people felt they really had nothing to lose until now that what they have gambled and lost is worth millions of dollars but back then, it really was nothing.
Gambling then became one of the easiest ways to try to do your thing, win some extra in the process, a way to even stay off the government radar for some, and still in a way brought about some awareness for the crypto space among gamblers.
712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Criteria of a good gambler on: June 22, 2018, 02:53:55 PM
I think these two

*
Code:
a good gambler never cause any problem to the surrounding 

*
Code:
a good gambler should able to manage the time

is not really needed. When a gambler do not chase and can control themselves, they know for themselves that they don't really need to borrow money from other people, why would they go for that? That will not be a fun and exciting gambling experience right?

Also, even without stating the last one, they can really manage their time since as you've said, a good gambler is not attached to profit and can control themselves that makes them prone on having a lot of time with their family and their career.
One way to go about being a good gambler.
I feel the problem a lot of gamblers usually have that makes them to fall in the category of being an unreasonable and a very pathetic gambler is the mindset of wanting to win by all means and for any gambler that is able to eliminate this mindset right from the onset, it would make such a person never to fall for being greedy or expecting the impossibility from gambling.

Anyone who apparently will not be able to cope with this reasonable mentality should not be gambling at all, otherwise, it would be a crazy one for such individual.
713  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where do you look for verified information about crypto and ICO? on: June 22, 2018, 02:15:39 PM
There are hundreds of cryptomedia & listings nowadays.
But after quick research, I realised that there are few resources where you can find all info about ICOs and crypto in one place.

And I've found this resource: https://forico.io

On this platform I found info about ICOs, agencies, experts, media, events, listings. Every project is rated by analysts.

What do you think about that? What else maybe you would like to see on a platform like this?
Who would want to rely on other people's analysis to make decision in the first place, which is one of the reasons I have never really bothered myself trying to look at rating sites reviews before making decisions.

Secondly, ratings can be bought, from the site to the analyst, so what is there for me to rely on in this case. Take a look at how ICOBench operates and you will know these guys are never there for the community and they care less with the only thing they care about being their pockets.
714  Economy / Economics / Re: What i believe will come on: June 21, 2018, 07:29:08 PM
While banks have many negatives it is incorrect to say that they do not bring some positives. By acting as an intermediary they facilitate numerous transactions that otherwise wouldn't happen and this stimulates the economy. The most obvious one is how they use savings to facilitate loans.
In fact, as it is now, we still have exchanges where you get to do fiat to cryptocurrency trading which I believe as time goes on, banks will also find a way to adapt into the crypto space in this category and as well as other categories. There are so many functions banks still serve which we have not seen in cryptocurrency space yet, and even if we get to see this, I am sure banks will definitely try all their means to still stay relevant in a way.
715  Economy / Speculation / Re: Current steady growth will result in $20K by end of August? on: June 21, 2018, 06:53:53 PM
Last 3 weeks growth has been slow, steady and strong amongst slight price fall now and then. Experts said the price would grow back by end of April and yes it happened. So will bitcoin price hit $20K by August 2018? I am sure yes if this current growth trend remains as it is.

What are your thoughts?

In this volatile kind of investment, anything can happen. Like it would grow up to $20k or maybe fall even harder. We don't know yet what it would be, so let's just be observant to the market and hope for the best.
Yes, the market may be volatile, but realistically, with the way things are going, I am not seeing the possibility of $20k by the end of the year, let alone August. We cannot expect a quick FOMO just like we had it last year as there is so much uncertainty in the market right now and a lot of people are trying to be very smart in playing their cards well which I believe it is the reason for the low volume in the market. We are in a bear trend and how long that will last is unknown, but for now, we just have to wait and see how it all ends.
716  Economy / Economics / Re: Why all people moan about the price of bitcoin? on: June 21, 2018, 05:30:12 PM
Many investors don't care about blochchain, crypto etc. They came here to buy some crypto and to earn fiat money. I mean it is normal ofcourse. There was gold rush in news about BTC when it was close to 20 k. Many bought then, now lost 3x . And they now moan, noone want to wait a little, to fix that mistake they made, and to inform about price year ago, two years ago....
Most investors and most especially the inexperienced new ones that got in last year towards the ending got in because they were looking forward to get rich pretty fast.

Life does not work that way and even though the FOMO news was huge, the same media coming up with FUD news now, kept pushing the price up with their own news based on positive fundamentals last year, but unfortunately, most bought at the peak. The only way they can fix what has been done is to wait for the dip and buy more to compensate for what has been done already rather than moaning.
717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: More and more Scam projects on: June 21, 2018, 04:10:23 PM
You should not choose ICO. ICO is gambling. Are you not new to join ICO to die? Unless you are a professional, this year's ICO will not participate. This is what you deserve.
No one can tell what comes out of every investment in the long run, but at least with due diligence you can pick the ones that you are certainly sure there is a chance of prospect. Anyone who is not ready to find out all that is necessary before investing in any ICO should have him or herself to blame at the end of it all.

Team in particular is one aspect of every investment than an investor should first thoroughly look at and it is more like trying to give someone your money to hold, which if you are not comfortable, you would not before anything else.
718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It is hard to detect scammed bounty campaign.. on: June 21, 2018, 10:27:25 AM
It is actually very difficult to detect scam projects these days because the scammers are now professionals. Not even the experienced investors are able to detect people with scam intentions. They make everything so real that you are almost willing to put your everything into it.
It is not difficult my friend, as the ball is in each person's court. Bounty hunters may not want to have the time to be going through every project to see which one is good or bad, but there are some times when you can just easily check the team, check the availability of product and check discussions made while asking questions on their social media pages.

As long as you can do this, the chances of hitting good project as a bounty hunter would increase better.
719  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How bounty helped your project? on: June 21, 2018, 08:59:35 AM
Hey

I was wondering, how bounty campaign can help your project to get bigger.

Do you have such experience?

For example, for the company I work in - a lot. It attracted more than 5000 to our telegram community. What about you?
Did it help to increase conversation from telegram member to investors? I don't sure. All bounty hunters are not interested in the project. That's why how many members in your group it means nothing for fund raise

actually they are interested. my life changed after that  Grin I have a lot of work now
Lol. Nice to hear they are always interested. The thing is that not all bounty hunters are the same. As some may not be that interested, a whole lot more are interested and would even be ready to ask very solid questions as investors.

I for one do not do a bounty for a project I cannot invest my funds in. To the topic though, I have been a part of some project and even a blind man would know how effective it has helped good projects to get the project out as long as it is worth investing in.
720  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: There is no such thing safe trading on: June 21, 2018, 06:33:37 AM
The trading word itself represents the risk. So no matter how much experience you have or how good is your mentor you will have every chance to lose. This safe trading word doesn't exist. If you are trading any asset whose value depends on various external and internal factors which you can't control you will never be safe. The thing which matter is you should always be in overall profit no matter how you trade, what you trade...
<a href="https://www.bestbitcoinexchangeguide.com" rel="bitcoinexchangeguide"></a>
If your mentor is even good, you will be told not to ever experience anything 100% even with your knowledge and you will really be beating yourself hugely if you think that the market will always move as expected all of the time. Things do not work in the market this way and the only way you can practice trading is to understand the risk and know exactly how to minimize it.

The more you realize this, the more safe you will always play your card in trading and most of the time you will still be winning than losing anyway.
