Only ONE way.
Everyone MUST follow the standard rules for every financial investments.

But, as someone already wrote it is needed to take in count that crypto currencies are very high risk investment.

I guess we will be only the ones who will talk here as the thread starter already left it.
It is true that it is high risk and what others dont see is as the price goes high the needed amount which basically most trading site want is .01 bitcoin if I am not mistaken.
In ETH most preferred .1 ETH which is growing in value.
So the $100 will only just give a little amount which wiill not be sufficient to be accepted by trading websites.
8142  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do people keep saying BTC is dead?! on: October 27, 2017, 07:46:12 AM
Because most people think if bitcoin prices go down, they think bitcoin will die.
It's precisely my thinking and many different people, because i'm sure more and more number of bitcoin users today, will not make bitcoin die, which obviously will grow and popular.
Many People who say like that only people who have the mindset that bitcoin is a fraud.

Just a little price fall and it is shaking them already.
The panic is entering their minds and they cant control it.
After that they would create a ruckus in social medias and even here that bitcoin is dying.
It is all non sense and should not be listened to.
8143  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 21 million bitcoins - 11+ billion people on: October 27, 2017, 05:15:15 AM
That is why every satoshi will matter.
Maybe at that huge population that bitcoin will handle it will be satoshi who will be the main trade.
That 21 million is not exact anymore. Many are lost and everyday there may be more that is lost in wallets that are stucked or cannot be recovered.
2020-10k to 15k.
8144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I won $123 for few minutes on: October 26, 2017, 06:52:42 PM
Congratulations to you then.
I have my own strategy when it comes to gambling but it doesnt really work.
Might try this one but I doubt it is still working if this is posted for a week now.
Maybe they have updated their website now and this might not work again.
8145  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin had a stable price, would it still be as popular? on: October 26, 2017, 03:16:59 PM
Bitcoin can still be popular because of its efficiency. People can easily pay bills and go shopping online with the use of bitcoin. You can also earn buy joining different kinds po campaign and get paid through bitcoin.

Yes. Combining it with the necessities of the people is the best idea it could have but that is unseen until now. Only countries which accepted it can really do it.
Merchants will have a hard time telling if there will be profit or none. It is a big risk that is why most of the services just created their own coin to avoid much fluctuations.
8146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Brace yourself, Bitcoin Silver is coming! on: October 26, 2017, 06:06:01 AM
Bitcoin silver , gold, platinum? What else will they make out of the fork.
Bitcoin copper, bronze?  Grin
This is getting funnier than ever. The bad thing is they are carrying the bitcoin name which could be the start of bitcoin to fall. Thank you forks now we will be seeing a grand fall when people got weary of all this shit.
8147  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens when Bitcoin reaches its Max Supply? on: October 26, 2017, 03:32:45 AM
That is why it needs more value so that miners will still keep on working on it.
If the price of bitcoin is soaring high then every miners fee will be valuable too.
They can still pay for their bills and somehow they will still have some profit.
But this will occur for a long time and we might not be seeing it.
8148  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: did you place all your funds into bitcoin? on: October 26, 2017, 12:30:09 AM
Of course not. Always diversify.

Thats right. Problems may occur if we only do it for just one coin. A good trader never leave all in just one basket. Better to have something left outside of it rather than risking everything although the return will be higher, the lost could also be stronger with that high risk.
There is no telling when it could go down. No one really knows when it could happen.
8149  Economy / Speculation / Re: $10,000 by 2018 is looking now like a possibility on: October 25, 2017, 06:41:53 PM
It seems to me that people have turned bitcoin in God and now pray to him in the hope that it will enrich all. Can't all be rich. It is beyond the power even of God. Why do you believe in such optimistic forecasts? The growth of bitcoin 10 times in one year is unlikely. It seems to me that if the price held at about $ 5,000 is already a very good result.
Some do have a blind faith in bitcoin but I think the reasons for that and why everyone thinks we can become rich with it is for the simple fact that we still got early in bitcoin, if the price is this high with such a small amount of bitcoin users, then when bitcoin reaches world wide adoption the the prices are going to be much higher and that is going to give us all a chance to become rich.

One good reason to keep it.
Everyday there could be a new user that wants to have bitcoin. If that happen then it will be just a manner of time when every user will have that bitcoin and there will be less in the circulation.
With that demands will increase and that is a sure way of a price hike again.
8150  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin from $6000 to $5500 on: October 25, 2017, 08:07:42 AM
If it is about the fork then it should be going up.
Last minute changing their altcoins to bitcoin for the airdrop to come.
I dont think that is the reason there may be something behind it.
The fall will just come after the fork and I am sure that will happen dividing investors to where they would want to be and bringing their altcoin back.
8151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your biggest regret about bitcoin on: October 25, 2017, 05:10:31 AM
i think its not buying early back in 2010 or 2011-2013 its really cheap that you'll have big doubts but the price now is so high you'll think its too late to invest to it but that mindset will only leave you regrets

The biggest regret many of us did.
That time where the trust rating of bitcoin is so low and no one really cares what will happen. There was always the thought that it will just fall back to nothing again after a short time of hype.
One of my regrets too that is whh I came here to get more knowledge and make my trust higher.
8152  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who can destroy Bitcoin ? on: October 25, 2017, 01:37:17 AM
Restriction of internet connection is the number one way of eradicating bitcoin in this world, centralizing transactions could be the second one.

Correct. That is actually just the ways to stop it.
It is not a who but what steps coukd be done to stop it.
Kill the internet and you wont see it anymore.
If you are really asking for people who can destroy it then it is us. We stop using it value will come to an end and if it just millionth of a cent value you wont even see it in the news. Syonara bitcoin.
8153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is changing the world. on: October 24, 2017, 06:17:47 PM
Yes, but not the world in general. It has just changed our perspective on trading. It has made an improvement in the current state of trade and investment that we've goten used to. Now that there is a possibility, I hope more developments like these occur in the future.

This is once in a lifetime change and yes it did good.
A lot have happened with just years. We havent even reached a decade and yet many testimonies came out. It is not just bitcoin but the whole crypto world is making progress. Using it for development of projects or upgrades with ICOs. Although some of them are fakes.
8154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Good Online Dice, When You Can Win Up To 0.1 BTC In 30 Minutes on: October 24, 2017, 03:54:00 PM
I thought you are going to teach us and yet you are the one asking the question. You tricked me there.
You always have the chance to get that number. But are you willing to take that risk of betting 0.05 bitcoin so that you could double it?
8155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gold schedule Fork on: October 24, 2017, 02:05:56 PM
Guys,

It is just me or others doesn't have the same anticipation on this fork as compare to Aug. 1?

The forum was full of anticipation on the Bitcoin Cash before, but I don't feel any with the Bitcoin Gold? Previously, I felt that the forum was lively and there's a lot of discussions on Bitcoin Cash before, and almost everyone is updating what's the current situation of the fork and what blocks are we before the fork. But with this Bitcoin Gold, all members just want to get this free coins and dump it hard. And some have even stay late to be part of history.

But why with this fork everyone is not excited?

It already happened. It is not new anymore. They know what will happen so how can you get excited with that?
The exciting part here is if there will be a real airdrop like Bitcoin Cash then every bitcoin they saved will be rewarded. But what if there is none? They even sold their altcoins in a price which is not profitable just for this. So I guess it will be a lost for some.
8156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Can We Make Sure Bitcoin Never Ends? on: October 24, 2017, 05:46:32 AM
As long as there is strong support from the people here and also outside the community then there is no need to worry.
One man, a chief whom I dont care about cant take down a whole community. He could make an impact with his countrymen but not the whole world.
No need to stop him, people who are wise will look for facts before receiving another man's claim.
He did help too, thanks to him some people who doesnt know about bitcoin will try to look what it really is.
8157  Economy / Speculation / Re: What do you think ? Bitcoin is going to hit big value soon like 7000$ and more ? on: October 24, 2017, 04:52:56 AM
I think that would happen too since it really gain massive distinction in the globe this time and I think in just short span of time that price you might want may come in due time. As long as many users or bitcoin enthusiast that keep on using the availability of bitcoin in these days no doubt that price and future price we want to predict will always be possible. I am on the positive side as always that bitcoin would really pumped up that high that could even up to high as $10k, let's just be patient of holding our coins and wait for the moment that it is needed to be sell/withdraw.

I agree that it could up to $10,000 because there is really a potential with bitcoin besides the fact that it is a limited resource like gold. Unlike bitcoin, fiat money can be manufactured in a limitless manner and that is what contributes to inflation and we all know that it is not a good thing because its value will be going to depreciate.

Yes. That is the idea that is why many of us are hoarding more as fast as we can. We are targetting a price where we could feel safe.
I guess I am getting my retirement here instead of my job.  Wink
7k will be reached and I am vouching for that but 10k will take more time. The fork could heavily affect the bitcoin price.
8158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin reaches a record level, surpassing $ 6,000 on: October 23, 2017, 07:14:58 PM
I have a strong feeling people will start selling some BTC, when they have received their FREE Bitcoin Gold from this fork. The

price will go down and then people will sell their Bitcoin Gold to buy some more BTC and the price will go back up to $6000 or

even $7000, if Bitcoin Gold trades goes well after the fork. We will see $7000 in November and December of this year.  Cool
Why would it matter to Bitcoin how Bitcoin Gold trades? They're different coins and I'm pretty sure that Gold will just get dumped into the ground, with BTC not really caring about it.

I think he is right. That is a good strategy. After receiving the Bitcoin Gold from fork holders start dumping Bitcoin price, then they sell their Bitcoin Gold, wait Bitcoin price dump to cheaper price as possible, then start buying again with the profit made by selling Bitcoin Gold + profit made by selling Bitcoin.
They are different currencies, but the profit of Bitcoin Gold can be converted again to the original Bitcoin, however I don't know if Bitcoin has power to reach $7000 this year yet.
Bitcoin Gold should be dumped before anyone else has the chance to. Holding Bitcoin Gold for any longer than absolutely necessary is not a good idea, since it's junk.

Exactly.

1) Sell Bitcoin Gold and dump it next (take profit in BTCs);
2) Sell Bitcoins (for dollars and hold it);
3) Wait Bitcoin be dumped;
4) Buy Bitcoin again and hold.

Not saying it's the best to do, but a possible strategy to execute.
If most of us will do it then it will surely fall.
That way we could buy again at a lower price then bitcoin will be pumped again. The question is when you will do it.
Patience and right execution will be the key to perfect this kind of strategy which is not easy.
8159  Economy / Gambling / Re: directbet.eu - How do we reach them to settle bets? on: October 23, 2017, 03:33:39 PM
Does anyone know how to get in touch with DirectBet?
I heard they were honoring all of their transactions even though the site is gone and I had a long dated bet on the Astros to win the championship and wondering how I can get in touch with them to honor the bet. I have the bet confirmation email and transaction information. Am I completely out of luck on this one?
Did you try their email (support@directbet.eu). direbet admin/support isn't active here(last active august 15 - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=207436). emailing them is the only option.

Yes this could be your last option for it. If ever their e-mail is still active you can try to connect with them.
I guess it will be a hard time to contact them now. You might want to consider that funds to just flew away in the air.  Grin
Please share if you will have contact with them. Thanks.
Will be following this thread.
8160  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to Reach 10,000.00 $ on: October 23, 2017, 09:27:12 AM
The fork is coming and again this might affect bitcoin at a large scale.
Halving the investors and taking them to the new coin when they see they can profit more if they are inveted there too.
Same will go just like what happened with bitcoin cash. So that 10k of yours will hardly took place by this year.
