7781  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: US people are buying LTC while the other world is avoiding it on: November 25, 2020, 01:56:23 PM
Even though LTC going up to $119 is very possible as it's only going to take a few green days from here, that's a really bad investment thesis. Just because everyone can buy $10 worth of LTC, it doesn't mean that they will.

LTC is pretty much just almost like a Bitcoin testnet anyway.

Did you just copy-paste Decrypt's article and pretty much just changed some words here and there?

Because if you've actually done the research, having instant fees is not the main focus of having Bitcoin. Bitcoin exists for us to not need to(or at least to lessen) trust central banks; and to actually have true ownership of your money/wealth.

Unless your tokens are worth a huge amount of money, I don't think they will even waste their time in getting back your funds.

With that said, why not try? At this point, you have nothing else to lose by trying: https://help.coinbase.com/en/contact-us
7785  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ways against BTC confiscation. on: November 25, 2020, 11:03:24 AM
Tip: They can't confiscate something they don't even know that you have. This is also one main reason why a lot of people here(and with Bitcoiners as a whole) have been heavily advocating in using peer-to-peer platforms, rather than spot exchanges like Coinbase.
7786  Economy / Exchanges / Re: The end of margin trading on Coinbase on: November 25, 2020, 09:15:26 AM
It depends how this certain regulation actually is. It might just be the case that Coinbase didn't see that much demand on their leverage trading arm, and it simply just wasn't worth all the hassle; because as we know, Coinbase seems to strive to be as government-friendly as possible, in contrast to exchanges like BitMEX whereas they're pretty much always at the center border of being legal and illegal.
7787  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will increase 20X in the next 5 years on: November 25, 2020, 09:10:56 AM
You definitely know were in a bull market when we once again start to see these useless bitcoin price predictions. It's probably one of the things I hate most(besides the flooding in of scammers and hackers) when in a bull market.
7788  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Another fake atomic app on google play store on: November 25, 2020, 07:43:50 AM
And Google team claimed that Google store is scam free?

Can you point us to your source that says Google made this claim? Not sure if they'd make such a bold claim knowing how exceptionally false it is even at whatever angle you look at it.
7789  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Another fake atomic app on google play store on: November 25, 2020, 06:53:01 AM
It's been known for a while now how notoriously careless Google is with listing apps on their Google Play platform with how much fake and scammy apps there is on their platform.

Unfortunately, there's nothing really we can do but to report it.

7790  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What's your experience trading cryptos vs trading Stocks/Forex on: November 25, 2020, 06:43:03 AM
I can only speak for stocks as I never tried trading forex.

1. Depending on the platform, it's mostly easy. It's just that most if not all the stock trading platforms requires AML/KYC.

2. Yes, mostly on penny stocks and low-cap stocks(mostly sub $1b market cap stocks). There are even stock/investing YouTubers that seems to be recommending certain low-cap stocks with the intention of pumping them. Also, observe the hyped stocks on r/WallStreetBets.

3. There's really no right answer for this as it depends on some factors(leverage vs no leverage, which specific asset, etc).
7791  Economy / Speculation / Re: 2013, 2017 bubbles and 2020 bull run on: November 25, 2020, 03:45:37 AM
What makes me quite confident for this 2020 bull run is that a significant amount of money are actually from institutional investors, and it's pretty safe to assume that they're far far less easily affected by beginner investor emotions like FOMO and panic selling.

With that said, I really don't want to say the classic "this time it's different", as there's still a good chance that we're going to have something similar to 2017, just with a different price roof and price floor.
7792  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Liquidity on crypto exchanges are falling on: November 24, 2020, 08:57:31 AM
Good. It probably means that holders probably has stopped attempting to trade, and just withdraw their funds on their(hopefully) non-custodial wallets. My guess that these are probably old bitcoiners though, as the numbers on Google trends haven't really gone that much up yet compared to December 2017 levels.
7793  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Please advise on exchanging BITCOIN on Exodus wallet on: November 24, 2020, 07:20:14 AM
1. Stablecoins are good for trading, and it pretty much ends there. If you're planning on holding the USDs for a good amount of time(I personally wouldn't hold stablecoins for more than a week), then USD is the way to go.

PSA: Most Stablecoins Can Be Frozen, Even in Your Own Wallets https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5204055

2. If you exchange your coins through Exodus, I'm pretty sure you're going to pay a good amount of fees. Fees on Binance are mostly better. Also, if you hold a good amount of coins, get a hardware wallet.

3. Yes, you should keep your btc in exchanges. But how do you sell it? Simple. Move the coins from your non-custodial wallet to your exchange account when you're planning on selling.
7794  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance must have an option to instant sell with 1% of stop loss on: November 24, 2020, 06:04:55 AM
If you'd like that or whatever specific feature on Binance, probably directly send a request to them as chances are, they probably won't be able to read this topic.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate your inputs.

So, still bitcoin is king.

Is ether queen?

It depends what you mean by "queen". If you mean second to the top in terms of marketcap, then yes. Other than that, I don't really know what other cringe-worthy meaning you meant by "queen".
7796  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the main reason for this bull market on: November 24, 2020, 03:12:44 AM
*sigh*

Something something probably browse the forums first for similar topics before creating another redundant topic.

Topic: Whats causing the re rise of BTC? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5290589

Here was my answer:

If you're out of the loop: The United States federal reserve has been printing the US Dollar like there's no tomorrow, effectively harming the value of the USD in the long term. This makes bitcoin useful in this case due to it's steady supply distribution, and due to the fact no bitcoin can be minted after 21 million.

Who is buying the bitcoin? That we don't know for sure, but Grayscale's number of bitcoin in custody has risen by a lot, so by this, we could make an assumption that the institutional investors might be buying in. That, or the current bitcoin holders are continuing to buy in, hence the price rise without that much hype(like in 2017) with retail investors.
7797  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal is in cahoots with the government to seize your bitcoin on: November 24, 2020, 03:08:07 AM
If the day comes that we can deposit our BTC to PayPal to be able to pay for things, in the first place, it would be absolutely foolish to deposit every single BTC you have to their platform.

Unpopular opinion: Being able to pay for stuff with BTC on PayPal is useful as heck while platforms doesn't accept bitcoin by default yet(obviously as a temporary solution). It's just that you should move only enough coins to be able to pay for stuff, and not necessarily that you're going to suddenly use PayPal to hold all your holdings.
7798  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's good about BCH? on: November 23, 2020, 03:07:36 PM
Right, it's less secure and less adopted but Swiss bank started to accept that. Maybe we don't know something? )

I mean, they're launching a crypto trading platform. They're going to add anything that people will trade as long as they can make money off the fees. It doesn't necessarily mean they like the project or anything like that. Even Arthur Hayes, BitMEX's founder, added XRP on their platform just because there's demand; even though he admits that it's a dumpster fire project. It's just business as usual.
7799  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: ChainCase App: Privacy Focused iOS Wallet on: November 23, 2020, 02:50:47 PM
Unfortunately it's only created for iOS. While Samourai Wallet is good wallet, some people prefer Wasabi CoinJoin (mainly because it's more popular CoinJoin option).

Unfortunate for the Android users indeed. But I assume that's why they did iOS first, it's simply because iOS users don't have a privacy-focused wallet yet. And since it's really really early as it's still in beta, prooobably they'll make an Android version once they done the iOS full release.

Feel free to talk to them on Twitter or on the /r/WasabiWallet/ subreddit as they seem pretty responsive.
7800  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's good about BCH? on: November 23, 2020, 09:30:18 AM
Transactions are just faster(because almost no one is using it), and that's pretty much it. On the other hand, it's not decentralized, it's far less secure, far less adopted, far less developers working on the project, the list of downsides goes on and on and on..
