The more places that start to let people trade bitcoin on the corporate side the better, we have been into exchanges that are basically crypto exchanges but places that are not crypto exchanges allowing crypto exchanges are really the turning point for the big companies and banks to get into this as well. You think places like JP Morgan is not taking notice of what these bakkt and etrade is doing ?

They do take notice and they are checking out how market reacts and as soon as they do very well those huge banks will start doing the same so they won't lose some customers to smaller places that took the risk. That is why these are very important examples that should be supported a lot so we can see the other huge ones follow and change the sphere of crypto forever.

I used to think ethereum would become the biggest coin out there but than all other coins reached up. I know bitcoin has the biggest shot at staying number one and never leaving that spot forever but I honestly thought for a while ethereum actually could have done that. They had all the ICO craze for a while that made ethereum worth a lot, they had collectibles crypto kitty stuff that got 15+ million in funding and they had many dapps that could have been built on their blockchain as well and so forth.

It looked for a while that they would totally challenge bitcoin for that number one spot. Now looking at them even eos and neo and all that challenge their dapp world and binance started to challenge their ICO world as well. Bitcoin is the one true king that never gets rivaled like that.

I think it will have a small impact for good. It won't be huge and I doubt it will have any impact at all and change the price but if its going to have any its going to be positive one.

Think about all the companies that have worked both on Europe and Britain so far, all of those companies will have to find a way to run their business together after brexit and bitcoin could be solution for them, if they are having harder time sending money from one place to another because of brexit they could just buy bitcoin locally and send it to other place and cash out locally and they will solve that problem. I am not a dreamer so I know this won't be the thing most of the companies will do but maybe couple of them will do it which is why I said positive but tiny.

Increases and decreases are never the same for twice, there is way to many things that change the course of price movements, its not as easy to go back to 3800 as it was to go high to 5+ thousand dollars because it wasn't easy to go up to 5+ thousand dollars. We have tried to break the 4200 resistance for months before we were capable of actually going up but people saw the increase so they think it will be "easy" to go back since we increased so "quickly".

Well, if we are going to go back to 3800 than it will have to go the route we went when going up and will try to go back down many times before it can go to 3800 and all these buyers will have to let go and not buy in order for it to go back down that much. I do not see that happening any time soon. I am not saying it won't happen but I am saying it won't happen quickly.

I have seen the same thing myself as well but the problem always comes down to how to cash out when you need to. When you buy bitcoin at a large scale like lets say 100+ bitcoins that is usually not a problem because you can send money from your bank to another persons (or companies) bank account and nobody really bats an eye since you are free to do whatever you want with your money and that company usually pays taxes and all (the exchange you buy the bitcoins from).

Moreover, as soon as you make some profit and cash out and send that fiat back to your account it increases red flags in the bank and they notify the authorities on your movements of sending and receiving huge sums of money. I had seen someone on one of my telegram groups get into crypto with 150 bitcoins and dude had to wait 6 months until he got his money back.

I think mine is more than what crypto people usually go with, I have a bit of eth in my portfolio but its like 90% of what I have right now and rest of that 90% is purely on bitcoin right now. Not that I think bitcoin is the only good coin and others do not deserve to be on my portfolio but I feel like it requires a lot of time and research in order to find the good ones and put them in my portfolio and I do not like doing that.

Any altcoin and even including ethereum could lose value over time whereas bitcoin will always be the top coin, the top 10's 9 coin could change from today to next year except bitcoin which will still be on the number one spot. So, even though I know there are great coins that could profit me a lot out there I feel like keeping mostly bitcoin really lowers the risk of losing.

Weird thing is they used to be together and parallel, I don't know when this new one goes up and one goes down thing started and I am serious, I have no idea when was the first time, a case could be made for 2017 bitcoin cash hard fork but after that something happened and all the values of alts started to drop when bitcoin went up, not in dollar value exactly but in bitcoin value it started to drop. So, they were pegged to dollar somehow, so if something worth 0.1 back in the day and 100 dollars when bitcoin went up it used to go up in btc too like 0.2 and in dollar too like 250 but now it stays at 100 dollars and drops in btc like 0.05 or whatever.

Hence, I guess now its more about dollar value of the coins and not the bitcoin value of the coins that is checked and decided.

I think the point is there is at least someone challenging ethereum for good now. I know tron and neo and eos and what not all tried some sort of ways to pick out on ethereum (either ICO or dapp or whatever) and ethereum is still strong as always but with this binance IEO thing as well I do not think it will stay strong too much.

After all, if we are looking at it technically than ethereum could still be better way to do an ICO and that is fine however binance has the tech (better or worse) and the exchange which means they have the power to list a coin on its first day which will make people interested in that coin a lot more and I think that is what ethereum is lacking and that is why binance chain could be a lot bigger than the ethereum ways of the past.

I just feel like people are all agreed on the fact that blockchain lottery system needs to come asap. If we can send ethereum to some address and get some tokens automatically without manual work from the ICO team or if we can just send money and automatically involve in some sort of dapp that means ethereum could have some legit lottery as well.

I doubt people are wondering how this would work, we all know how this would work we just do not trust the website owners and that's it, however if there was some sort of automatic blockchain type of thing where everyone sent their money and in the end blockchain randomly selected one than we could remove that trust issue and create a trustless fully automatic lottery which could actually see a lot of attention.

Blockchain could be enhanced the way you want, after all blockchain is something people work on everyday and try to improve it, not only with new coins with new blockchains that offer something new to the public but the blockchains that exists also improves themselves by new codes everyday, cardano for example has been a big example of this where the developers have been improving it every single day.

So blockchain for gambling won't stop here, we are going to see blockchains purely based on gambling and there will be one that allows people to actually use only one blockchain with any coin they want but the casino will be based on that, think of eos for example or tron where people created casino dapps but they can be used for other stuff as well whereas much better blockchain purely for crypto gambling could take that one step further.

There was a problem with tether and how fake they were which resulted with many people getting away from bitfinex at the same time, some people tried arbitrage for sure but the amount of people who realized tether was just a pure fraud and they didn't want that was insane and they just gave up all their possession at bitfinex to run away to some other exchange.

I don't know if this is 100% true because this is purely speculation but it really was getting out of hand there for a while because of the tether issue for sure and than this spread happened so I assume it can't be just coincidence that they both happened at the same time, they must be related somehow. There needs to be some consequences of their tether scam and I think this is what that consequence is, I hope it would be example for anyone else in the future trying to do the same.

It all depends on what will happen in "news cycle" so to speak. I don't know how else I could explain it in short but basically sometimes something big happens and someone does something newsworthy and than bitcoin reacts to that and it drops or increases right ?

Well, it all depends until December what sort of news worthy things will happen that will make bitcoin react to it. If there was absolutely nothing at all I am pretty sure we would close with over 10 thousand dollars for sure but since we are not really sure on who will do what we are just assuming what it could be. If something really great happens than we can move even beyond 12 thousand to closer to 15 thousand dollars but if something horrible happens than we can move back down to 5 thousand levels we are at the moment as well.

This is not a big deal because it may not create a present since it is only about surprise fees. After all, banks can't create something out of nothing if crypto is not allowed and this would only stop banks from taking money from customers when they do crypto trades and that is not really a big example is it ?

Also that is only New York, it doesn't have to affect other places if they can find special state laws regarding that. I am not saying its nothing but its also not a major news, this would be at most a million dollars if you combine every single crypto extra charge banks have done in the previous year for example and honestly that is such a small number in the financial world that it doesn't even require discussion, it will only stop banks charging millions of dollars to customers and that's it.

I think it would help a lot in blockchain ways and not currency ways. We already have a lot of countries who are basically third world and having issues, reaching to those people is the biggest expense ever. I have read somewhere that 70% of all charity money towards African poor people goes towards reaching that money to those people instead of directly to that people, you can just write money on bank to someone who is eating leafs in Yemen, those people do not have access to technology the way we do.

If you can actually build a blockchain infrastructure which is just mobile phones basically than they could have better chance, just one time payment from charity or something to make sure every house hold has one mobile phone than all money can directly go to people in need. That is why I think blockchain is the savior of these people who are living under harsh conditions and not bitcoin itself, it could be any coin but it has to be blockchain based.

Calm down, dropping 850 million dollars in market cap is as insignificant as it gets in bitcoin world. I would like to remind you that it it used to be around 62 billion dollars just couple weeks ago and now its around 92 billion dollars, that is around 30 billion dollars in increase and yet here you are trying to create a FUD about how it dropped 850 million dollars.

Unfortunately for you that people are not that idiot anymore and they know what they are doing. Nobody will believe in these types of discussions of how it dropped and how BIG THE LOSSES are with caps on because we can literally see something that worth over 92 billion dollars in marketcap could drop 850 million dollars and it would mean nothing, that literally happened every single day during the past 2 years.

If people really believes that tether is holding 1 to 1 ratio of all their dollars in banks then they already deserve to lose money. I have been involved in crypto for longer than 6 years now and I have never really trusted the tether token enough to ever own a single of them, not even on any exchange to make any trades from bitcoin to tether or any coin to tether and not even once.

That is why I feel fine when I learn that they are doubt to have as much money as they claim to have and they can try to prove to us that in fact they do have that much money but considering they are using a third world country bank in bahamas that can be manipulated the way they want (after all they have a lot of money which equals to power in those small banks) and that would mean they can't really guarantee since we don't trust them.

OMG, this is very strange and alarming, I knew that something will definitely go wrong in the ethereum Blockchain, and getting to the stage that even the private keys of users ain't save anymore, then this should be something we have to look into as a community so as soon as possible because we don't need anyone losing their funds to scammers because the Blockchain is easy to penetrate, the co-founder of ethereum said they are working on something, I think they need to speed up on which they are working on, it is needed so much in this time.

I do see those smart contract based coins like EOS and Tron also not releasing native-high secured- easy UI wallets. Some of them are recommending adopters to use third party wallets. I guess they must work on providing native (first party) software wallets like bitcoin-core so that, 99% of risks will be eliminated.

Yes, when you are doing affiliate network the most important thing is to find the place you are going to find your affiliates, if you can find a place that is active and constantly have high click rates than you do not have to just stop with one place.

I had a place like that (they increased their prices a lot after a while so it didn't worth it) and I managed to put up some banners for a month and managed to get some affiliates there but than I realized I could put another banner which I did and got some more and I did this 3 times for 3 different websites. That is how I got my affiliates and I could have done it for just one place but maybe there was people who did became my affiliates in one website but also became my affiliates on the other websites as well I don't know so changing the place up helps sometimes.

I believe that mass adoption in crypto will soon be an obligation and not just a choice, unless you don't want to be relevant in this time, a big crisis is coming to the economic world which is going to cause a lot of downfall in the economy of many countries of the world unless they can adopt crypto so quick, this crisis I am talking about will happen so quick, my biggest guess is that it would happen in 5 years from now, so let's get prepared for it.

There are many projects are working on instant payment options but that alone will not attract mass adoptions. Particularly it may take more time so that people slowly will understand and then stat using an all new payment system. Still, I agree mobile based instant transaction will encourage people to go for using cryptos for their daily needs.

I think there are few places that are global but most of the time it needs to be a local place.

For example in USA they can do it on coinbase which is one of the biggest exchanges in the world but it works for usa perfectly, for other countries it requires way too much work to actually pull it off. That is where other websites come into work, there are places like kraken where Europeans could use and there is localbitcoin where everywhere around the world you can use to turn it into cash (even without using a bank if you don't want to).

There are also local exchanges that work from country to country which is most people who live outside of western countries use. There are plenty of ways basically but the only universal one is still localbitcoins to this day.
