Walang makapagsasabi kung kailan ang bull run o patuloy paba ang pag bagsak ng price ng bitcoin o kailan ito tataas, napaka volatile ng market kaya kahit anong oras o araw pwde itong baba o tataas.

I think no one knows what will happen to bitcoin in this current situation, the best to do now is to wait until the market will recover, but there are some altcoins in the market that you can still get profits by doing trading.

A South Korean blockchain startup, Presto, will reportedly file a constitutional appeal over the county’s ban on Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), South Korean economic media outlet Sedaily reports Dec. 6.
Presto claims on its website that it provides a “total solution to development teams from website building to token issuing.” The startup was reportedly trying to run a Decentralized Autonomous Organization-based Initial Coin Offering (DAICO) in South Korea for the first time.
As Cointelegraph explained in a dedicated guide, DAICOs aim to improve the ICO fundraising method by integrating some features of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs).
This fundraising method enables users to use smart contracts to vote for a refund of the funds if they stop trusting the developers or lose faith in the project, Sedaily notes.
As Cointelegraph reported, South Korea banned all ICOs in September last year. Sedaily reports that Presto’s CEO and founder, Kang Kyung-Won declared that the startup has “been hitting a snag as the government and the National Assembly have done nothing over the last one year since the government’s blanket ban on ICOs.”

In my own opinion papz, Hindi na, maliit lang ang bigayan ng social media campaign tapos hindi pa maganda ang takbo ng merkado ngayon, mas mainam siguro kung mag signature campaign ka nalang.

Just holding some altcoins that I've bought in a higher price and buy some potential altcoins in a cheaper price, this is what i do from now, and hoping that the market will rise again.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has again postponed its decision on a Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF), according to an official document published Thursday, Dec. 6.
The SEC set the new deadline for Feb. 27, 2019 in order to further review the rule change proposals to list a Bitcoin ETF by investment firm VanEck and blockchain company SolidX on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE):
“The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider this proposed rule change.”
Under the Securities and Exchange Act, the commission must “issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days” after the date of publication of notice. If the commission deems it necessary, it may subsequently extent that period by 60 days.
As the proposed rule change was first published in the Federal Register on July 2, 2018, the maximum period of consideration falls 240 days later, on Feb. 27, 2019.
Both VanEck and SolidX firms filed with the SEC to list a Bitcoin-based ETF on June 6. Subsequently in August, the commission delayed its decision on listing the ETF until Sept. 30.
The commission then requested further comments regarding the decision, claiming that the agency has not “reached any conclusions with respect to any of the issues” on the rule change.
In early October, the commission set a deadline for submitting comments about proposed rule changes related to a number of applications for Bitcoin ETFs.
Last week, the SEC published a memorandum on a meeting with representatives from VanEck, SolidX and CBOE. The applicants claimed there was precedent for a Bitcoin ETF based on other commodities with ETFs — like gold and crude oil.
Recently, SEC commissioner Hester Peirce, who is known for her pro-crypto stance, receiving the title of “Crypto Mom,” claimed that a Bitcoin ETF could come “tomorrow or in 20 years.” She said:

Maraming mga kadahilanan kung bakit patuloy parin ang pagbaba ng presyo ng bitcoin ngayon, Pero ang isa sa mga nakikita kung dahilan ay ang mga investors ay nawalan na ng pag asa na makakabangon parin ulit ang merkado ng crypto.

Dapat malaman ng mga baguhan na ang crypto ay napaka risky dahil sa napaka volatile ng market at maraming mga scammers, kaya mas makakabuti talaga sa mga baguhan kung may mag guguide sa kanila.

Of course fiat currency is necessary, for me it's more convenient if use fiat currency in every transactions and you can easily used it, unlike cryptocurrency you can't used it without internet connection and you have to be knowledgeable in crypto if we were going to used this kind of currency.

Well, yan ang target mo, mas mainam na yan may target ka kung sa anong price ka mag sesell ng bitcoin, pero para sa akin lang mas mainam siguro kung susubokan mo rin ang iba pang coins dahil marami naman may potential dyan.

Kung ang lahat ng bitcoin ay namimina na ng mga miners isa sa napakalaking impact nito ay ang pagtaas ng presyo ng bitcoin, at ang mga miners sa mga transaction fees nalang sila makaka mina ng bitcoin so ibig sabihin nito ay tataas din ang transaction fees dahil dito nalang sila makakamina ng bitcoin. Pero speculation lang ko to.

There's a lot of method on how to find out scam ICO's but the most common is a anonymous team behind the project, they don't want to reveal their identities because at first their plan is to scam people. A legit project need's a legit team.

Bitcoin price decreased due to many investors convert their btc into fiat money, it is just a law of supply and demand. If many people will buy bitcoin the price of it will increase and if only a few poeple will buy bitcoin the price of it will not go to higher.

Maraming ganyan sa mga facebook group papz or sa tele, ang ganitong klaseng scam ay napaka obvious naman na scam ito dahil mag ooffer sila ng hindi ka panipaniwala, kaya kadalasan sa mga nabibiktima dito ay yung grab lang ng grab hindi nag iisip ng mabuti.

An account once associated with Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto on the non-profit global network P2P Foundation posted a one-word status update yesterday, Nov. 29.

While the account is tied to Nakamoto’s old email address satoshin@gmx.com — the same address that reportedly uploaded one of the early Bitcoin papers to P2P back in 2009 — the same email was allegedly hacked in November 2014, four years after Nakamoto’s withdrawal from traceable online activity in late 2010.

The meaning of yesterday’s update, which reads simply “nour,” in quotation marks, is not easily deciphered. The top result on Google search leads to urbandictionary.com, which defines “nour” as the following:

“The most loving, affectionate and caring person you'll ever meet. Extremely smart, funny and sensitive. A bit lost, still figuring out what she wants in life and how to reach it. Stubborn and not willing to take other peoples advice. When she smiles she makes you forget all the problems you have, her hug will give you an assurance that you have never felt and will never do.”

Another possibility is that “nour” is a transliteration of Arabic “نور” for “light,” also used to mean “light” or “fire” in ancient Hebrew (“נור,” “nour”) and Aramaic (“,נורא” “noura”): the latter is used in the “Haggadah,” the text used to set the order of the ritual for the Jewish festival of Passover.

Alongside the cryptic four-letters, the account also befriended a user named Wagner Tamanaha, whose profile indicates he is based in São Paulo, Brazil. Tamanaha has acknowledged the “befriending,” tweeting today in Portuguese, “Parece que o Satoshi reapareceu e estou sendo investigado :-) [“Looks like Satoshi's reappeared and I'm being investigated :-)”].

Publicly-shared posts on Tamanaha’s Facebook page suggest he is currently active in the Brazilian blockchain and crypto community, and his blogspot profile contains a post titled “Social networks with crypto media Steemit, coming together in the blockchain revolution,” dated November  2016.

Of course if we were looking for an ICO it should be has a great team that has a huge experience in crypto field, and has a strong community in crypto world. But it's much better if you do your own research.

The Securities Commissioner of the U.S. State of Texas has issued an Emergency Cease & Desist Order (C&D) against crypto investment firm My Crypto Mine and its principal Mark Steven Royer, published to the regulator’s website Nov. 27.
The C&D claims that “sufficient evidence has been found” to substantiate that Royer, “acting on behalf of a white-collar criminal [Bruce Bise] and disbarred attorney [Samuel Mendez], offered tokens that are now nearly worthless” via a crypto investment scheme dubbed “BitQyk.” 

The document does not disclose details surrounding Bise’s status as a “white collar criminal,” but states that Mendez was disbarred as an attorney after “committing acts of dishonesty and moral turpitude by misappropriating funds.”

In May 2017, Royer is alleged to have joined Bise and Mendez in encouraging investors who “missed out” on Bitcoin to invest in the bitqy token, then priced at $0.02, but promised to rise to as high as $3.00 “in the indefinite future.” In truth, the token shed 99 percent of its value by Nov. 11, 2018. Investors who purchased the token at the time of Royer’s offering thus “lost almost the entirety of their principal investment.”

At present, Royer is principal of “purported” crypto trading and mining specialist My Crypto Mine. Without disclosing his previous affiliation with BitQyck, Bise and Mendez, Royer has instead claimed to investors that he has over thirty years’ experience in the IT sector and ten years of involvement in crypto, among other misleading material claims related to the My Crypto Mine itself.

My Crypto Mine, as per the C&D, is now “issuing a passive investment tied to cryptocurrency trading and mining that purports to provide guaranteed, lucrative returns.”

I think hindi na siguro mag bubull run ngayon taon, napakalaki na ng pag dump ng price ng bitcoin ngayon pero ito ay isang napakalaking oportunidad para maka bili ng mga potential na coin sa mababang halaga.

Newbies should do some proper research before entering in crypto space since there's a lot of scammer scattered in crypto, that's why there's a lot of newbies now victimized by unknown person because of lack of knowledge.

Last week, OKEx exchange faced negative publicity and accusations of marketing manipulation after adjusting Bitcoin Cash (BCH) futures settlements during the notorious hard fork.

On November 20, the exchange responded to those allegations, essentially defending its decision and promising to provide evidence if the case goes to court. Curiously, it is at least the third time this year that OKEx has shown strange price volatility on their exchange.

Brief introduction to OKEx, major crypto futures trading player


OKEx was founded in 2017 as an international arm of the no longer operating Chinese exchange OKCoin. According to data from CoinMarketCap, it is currently the second largest player by volume, handling more than $1 billion worth of crypto trades per day. OKEx is based in Belize and has an operating hub in Hong Kong. Moreover, in April 2018, the company expanded its presence to Malta, citing their “confidence” in the local government’s approach to cryptocurrencies.

The exchange has been focusing on futures trading, which is basically an agreement to buy or sell an asset on a specific future date at a specific price, hence representing a risk management tool for investors.

On Nov. 3, 2017, OKEx launched its Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Ethereum (ETH) futures trading, while its parent company OKCoin had been trading Bitcoin (BTC) futures since 2014. In December 2017, crypto futures received wider recognition after mainstream exchanges Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) introduced BTC futures trading to the wider market.
