It seems interesting, if there is a will, there is a way
Since arbitrage trading has some limitations due to citizenship issue, we can't make a bank account to withdraw fiat in other countries and vice versa.
If only an exchange allow us to withdraw via wire transfer (remittance) or withdraw US dollars via PayPal, it will be easier to do arbitrage trading.
Anyway, I have sent pm to you since few hours ago, waiting for response
Thanks for sharing this information.

You have sent big amount and pay low fees for BTC16 as too many unconfirmed transactions on the mempool right now, The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 510 satoshis/byte, based on bitcoinfees. So, you need to pay BTC0.05223420 for 10,242 bytes and it will confirmed within minutes or if that amount is too expensive you can try at least a half of it but it will takes days to be confirmed. You can try to accelerate the transaction through viaBTC ( https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/)

Every country can be the heart of bitcoin, but Japan seems the best due to Satoshi Nakamoto maybe a Japanese or come from Japan
What makes Japan different is consumer protection through licensed exchanges, even if an exchange get hacked, consumers funds will be replaced by government. After GMO can create 7nm chips for mining, Japan will be the most powerful country for bitcoin users.
Another country to consider is Belarus which has legalized cryptocurrency and ICO as well, even free from taxes for 5 years.

What do you mean? After clampdown miners in there, China government want to establish their own bitcoin mining farms? LoL
Jihan Wu as Bitmain co-founder has moving their mining operational in the US, Canada and currently build a regional headquarters in Singapore.
Even if China completely ban anything relate to cryptocurrency, they can't ban people's will to adopt cryptocurrency, there will always a way to trade and mine bitcoin obviously.

Current fees are cheaper than what we have paid last month obviously, even though there are over 200K unconfirmed transactions on mempool.
However, I recommend to use segwit address if you want to pay lower fee for the transactions, blockchain.info is not the best wallet, you may try electrum wallet for daily transactions.

Seems like you are trying to make an exchange that works through phone app, it's good. Do you think this app worth for an ICO? and what is the benefits of the coin for investors? Yes, you have to collect funds as much as possible and people will invest if they know their investment will be profitable and sustainable for long-term. Good luck to find cofounder to deal with the regulations in your country, hopefully to hear this project will succes as you want, I'm interested to invest as well if there is an ICO.

Core developers can not just change the nodes because they want, don't you see it takes years to implement segwit? which seems useless due to most platforms are not using it. You should know better why we have to pay fee, because bitcoin require miners to solve the blocks and it's not easy as you need ASICs which takes lots of money. No one want to mine bitcoin if they are not paid, Satoshi Nakamoto has made the nodes works this way to ensure bitcoin's environment could run and last as long as possible.

China government is going to far right now, seems like they don't want anything related to cryptocurrency is in their country.
Ban initial coin offering is understandable, but they have pushed it even farther by cracking down exchanges and curbs mining activity right now.
Maybe cryptocurrency mining pools are getting too big in China and consume so much electricity but government have to fulfill the demand of electricity as China is the country with the most population.

No, you can't.
Your question has answered above.
if you want to exchange erc20 tokens for eth, btc or ltc, you may try bittrex, poloniex, binance bitfinex or bithumb.
However, I would recommend to use a local exchange in your country as you may find it easier to verify your Id in case it's required to withdraw cryptocurrency, but in most case, no need to verify Id to withdraw cryptocurrencies, unless you want to withdraw fiat currency.

I wouldn't recommend to try Yobit due to many problems with this trading platform.
Actually, all the verification steps are important thing, at least verify your email, but for most exchange you have to provide an ID to be verified depends on which exchange and where you live, local exchange in your country is always the best option to deposit btc and withdraw ltc.

1. Which exchange do you use to trade?
You can easily to sell LTC/BTC for USD, do you need step by step guide to do this? answer my first question.


Yes, you can do this obviously. Most exchanges allows customers to purchase more coins using LTC/BTC, it's easy to do.
it seems you just have a problem to recognize the way to trade bitcoin and altcoins, which makes me wonder what kind of exchange do you use?

Mineable vs non-mineable coins?
it's not something like that obviously.
I'd rather to see it as utility vs non-utility coins.
Bitcoin will always be the king, xrp is just a coin which currently being pump and dump, you will see it crash in this month.
Ethereum has bigger potential than dash or litecoin, it will stand and settle for second best coin in the market despite the fact of ripple market cap is bigger than eth. On the other hand, xlm, xrp, cardano and trx are just gaining value in a short time, temporary coins to be traded.

I have get into trading for a while and never lose so far, only profits.
The way is clear, invest on some potential coins, look at the price of bitcoin, ethereum, bcash, litecoin even ripple increase significantly in the last few months. If you want to trade some unfamous coins in the market or invest in an ICO, it will be risky and be ready to lose your money, unless you know how to pick some coins which has potential to rise after few months.

Paying taxes for capital gains is better than get penalty in the end of the day as people don't lose anything compared to their initial capital to buy cryptocurrencies. People can't avoid IRS as long as they ever use exchanges to trade cryptocurrencies or just buy it, unless for those who buy bitcoin on peer-to-peer or OTC trading outside the exchanges platform.

This is serious problem, most people should know the risk before invest in a cloud mining though. Do not invest in cloud mining if you don't want to get into this situation.
So far I didn't see any proof of this accusation, even though it can be right or maybe will be solved after few weeks wgen their support reach your ticket as they have thousands of it waiting to be answered but most people don't care about the backlog and still submit another ticket, make it worse.

They can affect the price of an exchange if cash out at once, it's a big investment in bitcoin.
But, it can't affect bitcoin price significantly across the global exchange.
If Peter Thiel has invested in bitcoin since mid-2017, why it's published just now? as market react to a good or bad news, this is a way to influence the market.

For most altcoins; there is no such long-term, but for some potential coins such as eth, xmr, ltc, qtum, bytes, waves, yes you can hold it for few months or years and get higher profits.
Divide your investment into different coins will works if you have big capital.
It's better to invest in a potential coin such as iota, ripple or xlm, these coins are on pumping right now, but I'm sure xrp can rise at least to $5 and maybe $10 at the peak.

I wish can help you, but after read this: Unfortunately, the Wallet Recovery Phrase is your only tool for recovery if you forget your password.
Did you write down you password on a note in your computer?
How long you've been using blockchain.info? if you have confirmed your email, all things is set, have written the password, you should be able to access it. May I ask how much btc in this wallet? I've ever experienced the same thing, but after few moments can access my wallet, this is maybe because blockchain.info has an error.

If there are so many of these billionaires out there making a massive profit from some savvy early investing or clever trading perhaps, why are they so hidden and secretive?
Because
those with massive fortunes who are publicly known would most likely be the first in the firing line.
If I have tons of bitcoin or just BTC1, I won't declare it in an open forum or anywhere, just keep it in secret, get into trading and invest on some business.
There is no any benefits to shows how much you have in your wallet obviously, even some criminals will kidnap a bitcoin millionaire if they know about his wallet.
