yeah, if we have cash we can use it everywhere and we can but things we want to buy if have cash. but if we have bitcoin we were not sure that the market accept that kind of payment so we better have a cash in our hands.

Such honest articles are extremely rare in the mainstream media. For the past several days, the MSM have been churning out a great deal of FUD against the cryptocurrencies, and Bitcoin in particular. And this FUD is mainly targeted at people who are new to Bitcoin, or those who are hearing it for the first time. The concept of ICO is not familiar to most of them, and therefore most of these people misunderstands the ICO ban as a ban on the possession of Bitcoin. And the sliding exchange rate is an evidence of the success of this propaganda campaign.

Experience is gained trough practice, learning how to avoid mistakes and how to control emotions is part of that. I think that is the best way for improving trading skill, and in same time to read about global happenings about bitcoins, recent drop is due some rumor's and certain influenced people said something bad about bitcoin and if that can move the price trader need to be informed about all that on time if you trade with bitcoins, other altcoins are also vulnerable probably more then bitcoin, so Twitter account is must have if you wish to trade, follow all important people, creators of some altcoins, bitcoin developers, and in recent time others too.

I will prefer holding my money in btc because of the high rate if volatility (positively though, not in a negative way) Gold has a low rate of being volatile, so you won’t actually be making profits. But if I hold my money in bitcoin, I will be monitoring the price and will never take my eyes off the market. It can crash anytime.

Bitcoin has a touch of magic. But it is hard to believe this prediction of $1 million per coin due to multiple reasons. If that happens, then Bitcoin will be having a market cap of $20 trillion, which is ten times more than the current US Dollar valuation.

I put on money on this trader, made trades myself ( chose which currencies to buy and when to sell them). Did profit from these trades and then withdrew the money .
I withdrew all of my balance in amount of 420 dollars but received only 80 dollars.

Today I do not have such large sums, but the fact is that I'm more careful about tea and the other is also a small amount of Bitcoin. The fact is that in the first place I sell Talking back the etherium and then I sell the etherium on Bitcoin. Of course, Does the difference fall by 5%, then I start selling, But basically I expect good growth.t

I thought I was the only one who lost on trade, but many people same with me. Since i started trading about 6 months ago I have lost 0.2 BTC included my profit because I play altcoin and the prices of altcoin that I bought is going down, maybe in the future I will focus with bitcoin which is more promising than altcoin

I did not do the research, i regret it now.
On other hand, it is such a big company and based in Europian Union which made me think that it cant be a scam.

While you can't fully decouple the ICO market from BTC, I'd say the effect is rather limited compared to the effects on ETH. BTC still is part of an economy of its own while ETH is largely used for buying ICO tokens.


The BTC price dropped because it was reaching a new ATH of USD 5k that was already a strong psychological barrier to begin with. While China's ICO ban may have been a catalysator, this dip still was bound to happen either way.



We're a looong way off from regulated and transparent ICOs... even if they become regulated, most big money will prefer traditional VC investments as opposed to ICOs.

Does anyone know when Hashflare will get the SH-256 mining back online as they are currently out of stock?

Now good time to buy Bitcoin?
Please share your opinion.

That's what I'm saying. Make a profit and sell. Rinse and repeat.

I am an office worker and I am also a student in a private high school. If you think I can not do various activities then it is a mistake. I share the best time possible because my goal is to earn a lot of money. I sometimes spend time with bitcoin on holidays, I rarely use time for holidays and rest. So set the time according to what we want. If yes then Sacrifice some activities that are not important enough.

No matter the currency, corruption will be always here. Having only one currency won't change anything or if it does it's only about to increase it. Since it makes it easier. Big firms, for example, are able to corrupt in any currency, in any language, in any country...

On another side, if the only currency is Bitcoin, it can help to fight the corruption. For example, when the population pays the taxes, we could see for what purposes the money is used and where it goes, since transactions are public.

Is this really worth it? I think this is just kind of a waste of time. Faucets, after all, are more often than not just taking our time off and receive very little amounts in return. Faucets are more attractive to newbies and beginners but once they got the hang of how the crypto works they will leave them. You better invest a little as a start so that you will have waves. That would take no hassle from you.

yes that is right that one can easily earn bitcoin without any investment, by joining a signature campaign.

Correct, we are in a huge speculation phase. Most coins outside the top 10 in market cap (and honestly, even a handful inside as well) are pure speculation plays, and don't currently offer any huge value propositions.

What we will see in the future - maybe soon - is a small group of coins break away and gain even more market share, while the majority of these multi-hundred million dollar market cap coins fall back into the "penny stock" valuations where they really should be. I think there is still money to be made by selecting a decent top ~100 coin, waiting for a pump and then dumping your coins. But unless it's BTC/ETH/XMR and maybe one or two others, I'm not holding for the long term.

If Bitcoin has problems, we will SegWit, HardFork, split chain ... and this scenario always repeat make me do not know when is time for Bitcoin improved all!? But I'm trader, so I think do not need care to this issue many much, unless when I hold my Bitcoin for long term, I will consider that.

indirectly, yes.
there was a lot of FUD in the past 18 hours about China banning bitcoin so a panic sell started. and whenever bitcoin price goes down, altcoins get dumped hard unless they are already being pumped harder. without exception.

China has absolutely zero effect.
it is the FUD that affects the market. if China is wiped from the face of the earth tomorrow, i promise you that next week the FUD comes because of another country. possibly Russia. if Russia was wiped from the face of the earth it would be Korea, then another....

but so far China exists and everyone falls for the FUD every time. so it is easy.
