Lol I told them to shut their computers for years then get back to their daily life and take care of their family
This is way too much for waiting and the thing is that people really get bored by continuously waiting for big profits by doing nothing, simply keeping coins into their wallets. This is why I always recommend keeping some big coins like bitcoin and ethereum into wallets but at the same time, do some office job. So that they cannot get bored and keep earning money all the time. This is a good combination.

There are some basics of crypto market investment that a person should familiarize him with before he starts trading in the crypto market. The basics are, not to invest more than what you cannot afford to lose, always diversify your investments in order to minimize the risks, and the higher the risk the greater will be the return. Rest knowledge about market trends, technical analysis and charts can be known as the investor starts trading.
For beginners they must have to get enough knowledge in order to survive in the market because here are many complications and you will face with all those if you have the ability and your knowledge to face with these problems and find a solution for those problems.

The market has many alterations and changes with shift with the passage of time so you should know the rules of market and is necessary for every trader and investor.

Maybe it would be best for you to hold bitcoin for long term and dont touch it or do anything with it in a few years. I think that is the safest coin you can hold and if ever the rest of your coins will be gone, then at least there is still a chance bitcoin will up twice more than its price now and you'll gain back the losses.
Proceed forwards and start trading in this favorable market as we know that the value of Bitcoin is below 10k dollar and the real value is 7.6k dollar which is affordable and achievable for people. We used to trade in a market which gives you more quantity products and this will make huge profit in a high market where the value of your products is high and more than that of the price on which you bought the product.
724  Economy / Economics / Re: So many cryptocurrencies ! on: June 11, 2018, 09:08:16 AM
With so many cryptocurrencies it automatically makes the competition very tight, so it is natural that natural selection applies, for devs. which is not serious to make interesting coins then automatically abandoned users.
No doubt that when someone has to choose some sort of crypto currency, it is very difficult for him to choose which crypto currency is good for him because a lot of currencies are there in the market. But I think the people would go for bitcoins if they would have to choose one crypto currency form these, they would undoubtedly choose bitcoins.
725  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you approve this strategy: sell alts buy btc? on: June 11, 2018, 07:58:18 AM
I read this article, but I want to see opinions, would you sell all your alts to have only bitcoin now ? I don't think this is recommended

https://cointelegraph.com/news/buy-bitcoin-sell-your-altcoins-says-pioneering-wall-street-blockchain-analyst
I do not think so. Base from the recent trend of bitcoin, I would rather invest on some promising altcoins than to wait for billion of years just to see bitcoin rise again. I think it is not the time for bitcoin, I have seen many new altcoins there that are successful and gaining a huge growth but some others are not. I still believe in bitcoin but for me, if I want short term investment then I'll go for altcoins and for long term, then I'll choose bitcoin.
Yes, this is relevant but you have to make sure that your buying and selling times are according to the market conditions or not? If you buying and selling times are taking place in favorable situations then you can surely upgrade to Bitcoin and if not then you will not upgrade. Now sell Altcoin in a high market on a high rate so that you may be able to invest in Bitcoin in a low market.
726  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trading, ICO, Lending, Bounty. Which one should I do ? on: June 07, 2018, 08:02:25 AM
I also have a couple of accounts from the end of 2017. Currently I'm focusing on the bounty to recover the account
Bounty actually helps but I always classify bounty as more of a long term thing which helps you in holding most of those coins. Trading on the other hand requires a lot of attention and knowledge which also apply to ICO as well. Lending is a whole lot risky and would not even be a service I will personally want to render. However, as long as you know you are getting collateral and have a vast knowledge about the industry, then there is no problem.
727  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hackers ? on: June 07, 2018, 07:28:12 AM
Are there a lot of hackers now in the crypto's world ? I mean, it a place not totally safe, because of it's quit new.  Do you think hackers can change the crypto economy for their own benefit ?

Even not only to this new crypto world but also old traditional online transactions there would be always a hacker.Where these identities do really make advantage into other people and do things which will make them money.You should not be surprised and yet we are making transactions and talking about money here on crypto then no doubt this is one of their sweet spot because we know money would always been sweet. Cool
Exactly and there are no way we can avoid them than only to stay careful? Anything that has to do with online, there are so many information that people can make use of to guide them on some of the things they really need to do so that they do not end up becoming a victim.

However, a lot of people always think security is too expensive or hard to do until they lose a huge amount of money and that is not an experience anyone will ever want to have.
728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: June 07, 2018, 06:54:19 AM
You don't even know when to leave and stop gambling since you don't start in your self if you start to push your self to stop and realize that you can't even make more profit anymore then you should stop i was gambling addicted before and its too late i realize that i loss all my money bitcoin because of gambling you don't even know until its too late much better to make an action before you lose everything in that gambling.
it's really telling you that to stop gambling is better than our own encouragement rather than by others' coercion or follow-up. with yourself surely it would be easy to leave the real world of gambling

That is absolutely right, the only one that is going to help you is yourself, the final decision will still be yours, others will just give you their opinion but it depends on you if you're going to do it or not. Stopping gambling is when you know you had enough, you must be wise on making decisions or else you're gonna end up broke.
Thats right, I think all the power is in the player itself, that's why many people recommend to be able to control themselves when gambling, because playing gambling can be drunk to you and make you forget about control yourself, so do not you get carried away and become addicted, because you will find it difficult to stop

Stopping yourself on playing gambling is when you know that you don't want to continue anymore, that is when you are losing continously and thinking if you are placing another bet for the next roll, if you are hesitating, that is the right time for you to stop, or else your money would be devour by the house and you can't do anything about that when that happens.

Hmm, what you have said is basically like still trying to ask the question like how do you know you are no longer continuing. It is not just about that, it is about your mind set, your mentality before even starting to gamble. Those who see gambling as fun, where they pay for it and they can luckily win something from it, will always know when to stop, but those who obviously see it as a way to make more money, will always find it hard to achieve, which is why you just have to get that mindset of it is just fun into your mind.
729  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to hold coins in 2018 on: June 07, 2018, 06:15:15 AM
In my opinion Coins to hold in 2018 are security tokens and blockchain platforms thats  are fast and scalable. beside those utility tokens with that's provides divident can also be counted for long term hold.

I think to hold a coin we need the only one thing is patience level if you lose patient level then all are going wrong so follow this steps not only for bitcoin but also in other fields.
Your point of view as bitcoin is not only a currency you will have to be patience for but also there are a lot of jobs and investments that you will earn high amount of profit only by keeping patience and hold. Bitcoin is best currency for you if you are having patience and you go to hold your investment for long time, patience actually increasing your profit by protecting you from selling your bitcoin at panic so you earn more with patience.
Well, it totally depends on everyone as the whole HODL idea is just over stated most of the time. Sure, hold until you get to see some huge movement, but I do not want to be holding, then, the market starts doing great and still holding when the trend is changing for most of those alts.

That is an absurd mistake which i would not even be making again this year. Hold coins by buying at the dip and monitor their trend in the market and sell them when it changes.
730  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Right now should I wait to buy ? on: June 06, 2018, 09:34:44 AM
It's better to buy during the dip if you can afford. There are several factors why we are experiencing the dip nowadays even though the Consensus 2018 event week has come to an end. However, we might be expecting a rise in Bitcoin and altcoin prices after the event anytime soon. It is expected to rise just like what happened in the past three years in the post-Consensus era.

I cannot call these days a DIP. We are still swinging. But soon, you will see how fast the cryptocurrency is running ahead. That is why it is really better to buy it now.
Well, one thing I know is that the market will always give a chance for buy in and unless you really want to take some risk and put in a tight stop loss, you should not be trying to catch a falling knife as that can be crazy. Nevertheless, for someone who can trade very well and be able to take advantage of the market movement, I am sure, it would make things easy for them in the market than trying to gamble their position of when to buy or not when to buy.
Right now that market price is achievable and coins are available on low price and an ordinary person can buy easily. This market is called a favorable market for people who are new to the market and want to invest or trade in this market. We are observing a huge traffic on the market these days and this will help in rising the price or value of the Bitcoin, we should take benefit now by buying the Bitcoins and to load the coins for trading.
731  Economy / Economics / Re: What will happen to bitcoin? on: June 06, 2018, 09:06:31 AM
Bitcoin at the present time resembles as a bubble.Once it goes up, it immediately pops out.  It is normal that the price of bitcoin gets down but it's been a long time since it is on its original value or higher than its real value. Those who invest these past few months are suffering a lot of loaaes and they are losing hope that bitcoin will continue to drastically decrease in value.  Do you have guys some advice for me? It will be really appreciated and I will be eternal grateful.
Just hold your bitcoins and never do panic selling. The price of bitcoin will increase three months from now and I assure you that. And the bubble part, yes because as you can see there are whales in the bitcoin community and they are so powerful that they can almost put bitcoin in a devaluation process. To that end, remember to never sell your bitcoins because of fear and always have hope for bitcoin.  Grin
I think every person should hold bitcoins as much as possible because it is becoming famous day by day and soon the prices will go much higher in near future and as a result, he will get more profit by selling these coins than he would have got in the past. People become panic instantly in case of bitcoins because if something goes wrong regarding this, he would have to face a big loss.
732  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we make this world economically better? on: June 06, 2018, 08:10:06 AM
A fair and equitable economy is the dream of all the people. To create such an economy requires the presence of government as a regulator. Without government interference, it is most likely that the domestic economy will be severely crippled simply because there are no regulators.





I think If we give money to poor people or poor countries without proper financial education about dealing with better money, they will keep coming back to us and in that way there will never be a financially or economically better freedom in the world . Let's deal with people's mind first then the desired result will follow us soon.
This is only possible through financial education that does not give money to the poor or poor countries.
A country can reduce or can save their budget or cost on the manufacturing of paper money or fiat currency by adopting a cryptocurrency that will save their budget which is a biggest benefit for a country. Similarly, other countries can apply these rules so that they would be able to save money. This world will be economically better if all the countries adopt Bitcoin for their processes.
733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA WORLD CUP 2018? on: June 06, 2018, 07:42:17 AM
I am getting pretty excited as the first match of the world cup will be play in two weeks time, and I have already decided to put some of my money on Russia to beat Saudi Arabia in full time on this opening match. In my opinion, Saudi Arabia is not a very strong team and I believe Russia will surely want to win this match at home ground to reward the home fans who comes to support them at the stadium.

After the big event of IPL which has finished last week we are getting all excited with the FIFA world Cup. It is nice that they are not overlapping and we can have a best of the time before it was IPL and now we will enjoy it with the World Cup. It will be tough competition right from he start and will their be any surprise win for some country we will need to wait and see.

I don’t think that there is a link between IPL and FIFA. No doubt that all the people enjoy the FIFA world cup a lot because it is conducted after every four years which is a very long time span and due to the craze that people have gone through from the last FIFA in which Germany defeated Brazil with 7-1, I think the people can’t just wait to see both of the rivals again playing match.
734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How gambling can effect the economy of a country [Part 1 - USA] on: June 06, 2018, 07:11:17 AM
This is an excellent article bud, I'm glad you shared it here with us. The pro activists have been telling the government to legalise gambling in all countries so they earn tax and people earn amusement. This article is a slap in the face who have called gambling to be taken off the table, it is our money that aid your development mofos. I hope all countries realise it's potential and legalise it.
when gambling is already a lot of public interest it will be a lot of new gambling spots emerging so that the government will take advantage of it can be from taxes or rental fees.
No doubt that the public shows very keen interest regarding gambling in any state of the world that’s why the government isn’t willing to shut these casinos even when they know that these are illegal and are running in their state. One more thing that I can think off for which I think the government is not shutting these casinos is because they are getting paid from these casinos in shape of heavy taxes.
735  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: this 3 coins for hodl long ? on: June 06, 2018, 06:42:19 AM
ICON, ADA & SONM!
None of these coins is having that much reputation and the demand in the international market as is of the bitcoin and that I will always suggest you go for bitcoin every time you think of long term holding of the coin. No other coin except bitcoin can help you in making this much of the earning and that too in this much of the time. you need to stay patient and that you need not to make any hasty decision.
I think so that it is the choice of the person like in which coin he is more interested and that he should only go for that coin which he thinks to be a better option and in which he is sure that he will be able to make some good earnings. Bitcoin is no doubt a very good option but it is not possible for everyone to invest this much amount of money that he can buy the bitcoins. For such kind of investors, it is better to hold such coins which are less costly.
736  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH will go down or up? on: June 06, 2018, 06:14:28 AM
the movement of the ethereum will be greatly influenced by bitcoin. as now the bitcoin prices are declining. this resulted in the ethereum also decreased. actually the prospect is still good for its fore
in any case, relative to the etherium. You do not need to be so categorical. We know that Bitcoin completely affects the market, and the market today is in a very difficult situation. Proceeding from this, all the crypto currency is suffering and even the etherium will not be able to rise because of this situation.
The market value of any of the crypto coin is very much unpredictable and that the only reason behind this is the volatile nature which is the common characteristic in all the crypto coins. The only thing which we can expect is that the market value of ETH will rise as this is the only thing which will then help us in making of some good money in the future but you cannot be sure that when will this exactly happen.
737  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: minimum amount to start trading? on: June 06, 2018, 05:14:45 AM
In my opinion, minimum amount to start trading is $100 to $500. If you have got more funds available then it would be better, or you can start with $100. This amount would be ok.
Bitcoin market and other markets are proceeding with fluctuations and growing besides fluctuations. All you need is to trade regardless of huge or less investment; this will make you able to work efficiently and without any friction if you trade continuously. You can start with minimum amount and can start with huge amount but the results will be different on both sides. If you invest less you will get less profit and vice versa. On the other hand if you invest less you can face with less loss if do any mistake and vice versa.
The minimum amount to start trading is not an important thing but the handling of your trading system is important and if you give your full focus to it then you will not face with any problem and will get the benefit for which you are here.

Now start trading with crypto coins as the market is favorable and do trade with it on best exchanges as there are many easy and responsive exchanges.
738  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: June 05, 2018, 01:13:45 PM
I see that many of you actually liked the concept of 20 % method wherein you allot 20% of your earnings to be saved as emergency fund.
So I was thinking, if that 20% allotted will be invested in a time deposit kind of account, will it still be possible to earn as much or invest it in cryptocurrency? Or maybe just let the money sleep until such time you will need it?
What will be a wise kove to do with the noney you have saved up?

You could (and probably should) put it into some form of a safer investment. There are a lot of stock options out on the market that allow for pretty continual growth albeit very slow. This would be better than just leaving your money in a risky investment or just letting it sit under a mattress somewhere because at least you collect some interest. As you keep making money, you'll end up with more in that emergency fund until it becomes something that you can actually work with in a few years/decades.
Yeah, there is still a lot of uncertainty in the cryptocurrency world and if anyone is saving here now, it should not at all be all their savings or something they obviously will not afford to lose or simply panic about. Personally, I save 20% from whatever I get monthly, with 5% going into crypto and 15% going to the bank.

I believe that is good enough for me, as being greedy should not be a thing in this world and having sleepless night over how the market is as well. The 5% is huge and good enough, and for the long term benefit, it is just perfect.
739  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 500$ investment on altcoin on: June 05, 2018, 12:44:43 PM
For a $500 with a long term hodling, try to consider IOST, EOS, SYS and NEO. These are the coins that are promising and will never fail you in the long run. If you are not convinced yet, then have a research on these altcoins I have mentioned and you can look at their matket cap. Goodluck on your start.
Pretty good coins that anyone would want to consider right now. Some of these coins may actually end up giving a huge push anytime soon and for those who may be holding those after this little correction they have had, the next leg up may be a pretty one for most of them.

There are some other coins like SC, COSS, and ENG which may be doing well. ENG after the last up from the ICO has been holding pretty strong after the last downtrend for most coins, and it simply looks like a token that is set for huge gain.
740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: June 05, 2018, 11:20:56 AM
I think yes. Being positive gives us more space to think and we can come up with a new idea, new strategy and we can also control our mind and body. If we can not control our body, we can become too greedy and then, in the result, we will lose our money in gambling
You don't have to be greedy to lose money. Gambling is game created for you to lose money, no matter greedy, not greedy and no matter how positive or negative you are.
I don't see how controlling your body can help you in gambling. Do you?

I don't see how controlling your body will affect the outcome either , nor what strong feelings you get whenever placing a bet will does .
It's all about luck and the outcome can infinitely random no matter what conditions your metabolism is ..
You should rather control your gambling practices and know where did you screw up and where were you good whenever following some strategy , and on top of all you must control your spending since frustration can make you spend even more in hopeless attempts to get your money back ..
Positive thinking will certainly not affect the game circumstances , house's edge or what could happen at any given time during the whole process .. so this being positive thing won't make you any money , being smart will tho and that's my advice for any gambler : whether you are willing to take risks or not , whether you are greedy or not , the more you play it smart the more benefit you'll get Wink .
If you are confident on a gambling table your opponent will think that you are an experienced and old gambler and will lose his temperament while gambling with you. Your positive attitude will affect the game and will help you win the game. But for winning only positive thinking is not enough, many other factors also involved in good gambling.
Maybe next time, you should not be too confident on your positive mindset, so you won't have the feeling like you are always going to be getting your opponent screwed. Apparently, I am sure you may be referring to games like poker, which at least has some bit of luck and how you are able to comport yourself while playing the game in a way.

However, just like you said, there are so many other factors involved when it comes to gambling and you do not want to be too positive without being realistic most of the time.
