You are spot on OP. Yes the world now knows that China, though it has a tremendous economic power, can not put an end to the global use of Bitcoin as that attempt has shown. This also shows how truly decentralized Bitcoin is. However, the irony being that at the time China banned Bitcoin was when Japan made a public show of solidarity to the use of it. And both countries are technologically advanced. Now we know it is China to lose, not Bitcoin.
7542  Economy / Economics / Re: The Real Reason for Bitcoin's Rise on: September 19, 2017, 09:38:46 AM
OP, the picture you painted sounds more of a hypothesis than statistical fact. It certainly can't be proved. One can conveniently look at the reason for bitcoin rise (as in its popularity) from the fact that it was a rare intention anchored on the internet space at a time when the world is going global. The real money is not cash but intellectual and that is really what has fuelled the Bitcoin. And now that China has banned it, more awareness and frenzy is going to be thrown open on the Bitcoin.

What is a good amount of Bitcoin to buy for first time buyers new to the crypto market? What kind of return can you expect to see within a week?

The question is same as, how much money is enough? Really, there is no limit to how many one can acquire provided one has the means of acquiring more. However, OP except you are a money bag like Morgan and co it is really expensive to even own just 1BTC nowadays.
7544  Economy / Economics / Re: GoodNews: Japan is finally given licence to bitcoin exchanges on: September 18, 2017, 07:02:47 PM
"Every disappointment is a blessing" - Unknown

Japan has finally joined the crypto-currency race by giving licence to crypto-currency exchanges but with regulations to avoid experiencing another market collapsed by the market e.g. Mt.Gox

Coincheck’s application approved for Japan’s new bitcoin exchange registration
https://www.cryptoninjas.net/2017/09/13/coinchecks-application-approved-japans-new-bitcoin-exchange-registration/amp/

China's loss is now Japan's gain. In a few years to come, China may struggle to meet up with Japan and other countries of the world that have merged the blockchain technology into their financial sector. The idiom "one man's meat is another's poision" aptly captures what is happening now in the cryptosystem. Ride on japan.!

Cases of scam are now rampant with the increasing value of the bitcoin on daily basis. Scammers trying hard to outdo one another by phishing unsuspecting public. If it isn't clouding mining scam, it is doubling or phishing site. And when scammers don't succeed in this, they go hacking. To be honest with you OP, you escaped that snare because you were very vigilant. Good one.
7546  Economy / Economics / Re: tax on: September 18, 2017, 12:44:08 PM
I am from Africa. The idea of Bitcoin has not really caught up with us let alone tax on it. Our government sees Bitcoin as a kind of bubble that can't withstand the test of time. So, the issue of taxation on it does not even come close to discussion. There was a recent incident in my country that a set of mining machines were turned back to the country of purchase because the country's clearing authority did not understand what they were. It is that bad.
7547  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I invested in my first ico, now what? on: September 18, 2017, 09:08:39 AM
I just invested in my first ico, Blackmoon ico. What happens now? I'm looking to make a quick flip. What do I do with the Blackmoon tokens?

Blackmoon? That sounds kind of scary. Well, not to worry about the name tag. You had already invested in the ICO even before making your research (I still doubt if you have actually done any research on it though) and I should think you ought to know that throwing up this question here isn't the right channel to knowing what the ICO is about. There should be an instant channel through which you can reach the company for response like Slack or Telegram. You may want to send them this question.
7548  Economy / Economics / Re: dropping value on: September 18, 2017, 04:56:04 AM
what's happening in the bitcoin?? Why continue his descent? should we Convert bitcoin in php?? Im worried for this, my bitcoin is still down,

This scenario often comes up where holders look at Bitcoin as a short term to fulfilling their dreams of being rich instead of as an investment on the long term. A little crash in price tends to send their blood pressure too high. Dude, yes we know the China thing happening but go check charts and you would discover that BTC has often taken a plunge. There's nothing new here. This the market dynamics and Bitcoin will soon soar to the moon again.
7549  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: regret by not believing in BITCOIN? on: September 16, 2017, 07:22:51 PM
It does not matter, the most important thing is that you are here now do everything that you can to read the forum as much as possible, once you get enough knowledge you can begin several other activities that may give you bitcoin in the long term, but you need to do it fast because we do not know for how long the current prices are going to hold.

That is the right altitude, bro. To live in constant regret over mismanaged opportunity is a waste of productive engagement. It is toxic. And believe me there are definitely a few who bought into the Bitcoin idea in 2009 -2010 who haven't sold off those coins before now.
7550  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fake news :Bitcoin is not banned in china on: September 16, 2017, 06:36:13 PM
Don't panic and don't sell your crypto  Angry, it is only fake news , they can't bane banne bitcoin  Cool
I have told you that some Chinese exchanges might be banned according to our own sources. Do not forget China cannot ban Bitcoin and is not banning bitcoin. The market is going down a bit now but in my view it will recover. Do not panic. Tongue Roll Eyes

Agreed that China can not ban Bitcoin outright for the entire world but it can make its citizens not participate in the buying and selling of Bitcoin through strict legislation. And that is what is happening now. It isn't a fake news that there is a ban after the clamping down on ICOs and exchanges in China. It's all over the news. No FUD, dude. 
7551  Economy / Economics / Re: Mental barrier stops from buying BTC on: September 16, 2017, 04:51:31 PM
As humans we are limited by the knowledge of what the future holds. We are not all-knowing. So, we will always foot drag whenever it comes to buying at the best opportunity because we would think it could dip more. There were times I had missed trades because I had thought it would dip more. Sadly, it never did. This defines all of us. I am sure there are some here who are regretting missing buying the dip two days ago occasioned by the erratic comment from JP Morgan boss.
7552  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Will happen if all bitcoin already mined ? on: September 16, 2017, 06:16:51 AM
There are only 21 million total bitcoins that can be mined, what will happen if all bitcoin is already mined?
I think bitcoin mining is not that hard. People can dig up bitcoin by joining the bitcoin network. But if all the bitcoins are exploited then bitcoin participants will be boring, less attractive. Because when they exploit a bitcoin they can sell for a very high price, what they like!


Except there is a Nostradamus in the house no one knows for certain what the situation will be like. We can only make guesses and hypothetical suggestions. By the way, there is no way all the 21million btc will be mined because already some are lost whose private keys have been misplaced.
7553  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which coin now you think had a good future on: September 15, 2017, 10:46:54 AM
I choose, in no order of importance:
1. Walton
2. Firstcoin
3. Bitconnect
4. Lisk
5. Bitcoin

I know this may be very hard to tell for some people because there are numerous coins out there now, over 900 of them. For me, I look at the market cap and total supply of the coin that catches my attention. The supply shouldn't be much. You know the popular saying that it is scarcity that gives a thing its value.
7554  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns [Last update: 08-Sep-2017] on: September 15, 2017, 09:54:40 AM
Nexchange opened third campaign for same subject with monthly rates that differ significantly from first two ones.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2178080.0
At the second campaign, that still stands at the table, no participants where choosed. It was closed without reasons.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2089201
Here was the first campaign.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2165922.0

Probably scam.

I don't think it's a scam. The per month payment is clearly stated in the OP that participants don't need to post. Just wear the logo and get the payment every payment day. Here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2178080.0

        Rewards
You don't have to do anything, just update your profile once and grab the cash on a monthly basis!
7555  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are We Dead Without China? on: September 15, 2017, 03:53:36 AM
From statistics, China has a major impact in world economy. But it doesn't exist in isolation from other countries of the world. China cannot ban Bitcoin on behalf of the entire world. This is not possible. Rather its regulations and attempts to ban it can only fuel apprehension which is quiet understandable. This will surely abate. Until recently I never knew that the Binance exchange, though registered in China, has less than 25℅ Chinese clients. I had thought it was mostly patronised by Chinese. Bitcoin and the altcoins will still be here without China!

Usually campaigns pay max 0.035BTC per week, and on average around 0.02BTC and around 0.0006BTC-0.0008BTC per post. Why are you not hiring a escrow or a campaign manager that manages the funds, since you are fairly new and i do not think that your company has much reputation, because i have not heard of it. Hiring someone to manage your campaign, like yahoo, lutpin, decoded etc. would be also worth it for you as well, because you would help to avoid the spam on the forums. Also i think you should reduce your rates for full member accounts, because there are so many farmed of them wandering around.

You think his rates are fantastic? Nah! They are not. If you take out time to do the calculation you will understand what he is actually paying is below industry standard here.

60 posts per week @ 0.03 means 0.015 for 30 posts per week that he offers Hero and Legendary Members. Isn't that poor?
7558  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is it better to invest in bitcoin or ethereum ? on: September 14, 2017, 09:40:52 AM
Ethereum is a runner-up to the Bitcoin in terms of market cap but it still remains one cryptocurrency I am not likely to acquire. There's always news of wallet hacks every now and then around ethereum. Looking at an investment option to the Bitcoin is like comparing butterfly and an eagle. Yes, both can fly. But hell no, both don't fly same height.

Okay you got point there.
But may I ask about the wallet hacks in the ethereum field? It seems like that is hard to see since you got your own private key or you could use the json file which is makes it much harder for someone to hack you except you have read stupid threads like someone pasted their private key in some forum instead of their wallet address.

But if there is one. Could you please direct me one link that had the experience of a real hack.

I had a very good laugh over your comment in bold. Lol, could someone had made that mistake. So pathetic. Anyway, I read about the hacks I alluded to here on this forum. Sadly, I can't find the links to those threads now. But I am sure someone else will shortly.

Ethereum is a runner-up to the Bitcoin in terms of market cap but it still remains one cryptocurrency I am not likely to acquire. I don't know why I am not moved by the frenzy around ether. More so, there's always news of wallet hacks every now and then around ethereum. Looking at it as an investment option to the Bitcoin is like comparing butterfly and an eagle. Yes, both can fly. But hell no, both don't fly same height.

OP, can you make your payment structure clearer. Somewhere you wrote 0.3 and 0.2btc for the respective tiers and another you wrote 0.03 and 0.02btc for that again. Which is the right payment?
