841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any good recent bounty campaigns? on: May 04, 2021, 09:24:49 PM
Hi guys,

could you recommend some good recent bounty campaigns that still worth the time?

Tha
Nowadays, it's difficult to find a good campaign because most of them didn't pay at the end of campaign. Sometimes, I'm losing the urge to join a campaign. Much better to do trading now even start in a small capital.
Both bounty hunting and trading can be profitable, it’s up to you to decide for yourself. If you have enough funds and skills to trade, then I’d say that trading will be a better option. I have friends that are traders and it is quite profitable for them, they are steady buying cryptocurrencies and trading them to make profit daily. So if you have that skills to be a trader you should definitely be going for it.

But if you don’t, then bounty is a good option, people also make good money from bounties, it will require a lot of hard work to be able to make a good amount. They both have their risks too; when it comes to trading you’re taking the risk of losing money while trading, then as for bounties you have to avoid bad projects.

People have often compared crypto to stocks since owning a coin, represents your "share" of the decentralized blockchain network. Exchanges act as brokers in a similar fashion to traditional stocks. While stocks are fiercely regulated, crypto is the "wild west". Cryptocurrencies are extremely volatile, while stocks are much more stable. Despite crypto/Blockchain tech's popularity, stocks are still preferred by mainstream investors and traders alike.

Which asset types do you think are better: crypto or stocks? Is crypto getting closer to becoming regulated just like stocks? What do you think will happen if institutional investors come into play? Will stocks transition themselves to the Blockchain? Or is it still too early to tell? Your input will be greatly appreciated.
Crypto is already being regulated in some places , centralized exchanges in the cryptocurrency market are where the regulation starts, and that’s where it ends, because they can’t continue keeping an eye on it when it’s out of there. When it comes to decentralized exchanges you don’t know who owns an address, exchanges are P2P and people don’t reveal their identity. But as for centralized exchanges, it’s always clear who owns the address because users have to submit some of their information and sometimes full information that will disclose everything about them, and that helps regulators to know everything about them.
843  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase Adds PayPal As Payment Option For U.S. Users on: May 03, 2021, 06:53:24 PM
-It's hilarious to see PayPal come full circle. They banned buying bitcoin from their platform really early on, but it's now apparently too lucrative to ignore.
-Those fees are insane. (2.5% for deposits, 4% for direct purchases).

What do you think is bullish? Will people be using it?

As I have seen a lot of people complaining about the fees and not letting middleman(PayPal) handle the transactions.
Man for real, I do remember the time that they (PayPal) banned bitcoin  and even closing the account of users that were making use of bitcoin, but this time around a lot of things have changed and it’s now those companies that banned bitcoin that are now accepting it in their platform and PayPal is now one of them.

I am not surprised that Coinbase has added then as a payment option, because PayPal is now allowing payments in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies (although the process is quite different) they are sure going to be letting their users make use of it in payment.
844  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to still make a good return from Bitcoin? on: May 02, 2021, 04:43:39 PM
Okay so I saw bitcoin early days because a competitor site owner briefly offered it as a payment method for their products. I thought this cryptocurrency will never work because it will either 1). get regulated / shut down, or 2). never be accepted by the general populous.

Neither of these happened and finally I bought a diversified holding of £10,000 in 2019 to hedge against future pain. I still have this holding untouched including 1 btc and have no plans to sell it until I am sure it has hit full critical mass or goes to zero.

My question: Should I just forget about bitcoin now and go back to my business?
I believe when you look back to the date you posted this and what the price of bitcoin is today and if you did not actually invested in Bitcoin back then, you would be hating on yourself now. To be honest, Bitcoin is not what should should even consider whether to invest in or not because since its genesis, though have few problems on the way it is the go to investment for all now and I hope you did invest. 
Yeah by this time, they themselves might have realized the possibilities of making good returns out of bitcoin investments. In January of this year, we were doing around $20k and right now above $55k; what else we need to prove the potential of bitcoin investments. One of the best ever opportunity all investors must think about.

Fortunately this year is immediate following year to halving hence we are having bull run. If OP was asking same question some other time then we might have needed to wait for years to show them a living proof. This kind of high volatility is one of the reason why most investors are still hesitating to invest with bitcoins.
845  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for good projects on: April 29, 2021, 08:40:31 PM
I speculate that BNB may start competing against bitcoin in sometimes because it is already going to beat ethereum in terms of people's preference to invest with.
That sounds like wild speculation Grin. Because, right now BNB is ranked third on coinmarketcap but you are foreseeing something which is not at all having ethereum in between. I guess that must be a very long road ahead for BNB to reach out. I mean first it needs to overcome ethereum and then only I guess we can think about a competition between bitcoin and BNB; I am not sure that will happen any time soon.

After BNB, I guess people may go for RDD coins which may turn like how dogecoin is doing right now. But, dogecoin is backed up Elon Musk and RDD is not having any such kind of back up as far as I know.
846  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you guys think about the Old coins? on: April 29, 2021, 08:09:03 PM
In my opinion, old coins are still in a great demand by crypto users because growth is very stable, but now new coins are very dominant because their growth is extraordinary, even though people are still investing in old coins, new coins are very prioritized, because they are very promising,
Not all old coins are showing stable growth; I have seen some of the old coins got delisted from exchanges.
Still, I believe we can go for older coins like litecoin and waves because these other coins always having good reputation among this crypto community.

When there are enough supporters for the any old coin then that will have definite bright future but given that it should not be having heavy competition like how ethereum is facing against binance.
847  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trading Or Invest ? on: April 29, 2021, 07:40:32 PM
You can make a profit every day from trading but there may be a set time to make a profit from investing. But in my opinion trading is the best because I have the skills here and can make a profit every day.
Trading can be a good option for the people who are having required skills but investing will be suitable for anyone because it does not require any skill. So, like you have said, anyone can go for anything but purely depending on their skill level.

Right now, I am doing both trading and investing because I am just a learner in crypto trading so I am not fully depending on trading for my living at the same time I am ready to hold for long duration so I am going for investing as well.
848  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I'm wondering who trades with paid signals? on: April 29, 2021, 07:14:15 PM
most of this paid signal groups are pretty exclusive that I don't think it will be pretty easy to find a legitimate one because most people who advertise this service are either ineffective or a scammer.
You mean it will be hard to find legitimate signal providers? I am also thinking so.
Because group of whales are easily making good profits out of some signal but individuals are not able to.
It means we need to pay very high fees so that we can get such type of signal otherwise we will be getting ineffective signals which may be working some day and may not some other day.
849  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you stick to your trading plans on: April 29, 2021, 05:50:32 PM
I am still zero experience in trading, always can't analyze really good and sometimes only follow what my friend trade. Honestly i can be more calm if have friend when stuck in a coin or maybe like, "he is stuck too, and i am not alone". Still trying to fix that because someday i must be can do trading alone with my own plans.
You may not fix that if you stop following your friend right away. Because, if you are already making profits then you will never find time to learn basics of crypto trading which includes technical analysis and risk management. I mean there are lots of things left for you to get yourself trade alone. Hence, if you start today then you may be successful after a year of time.

But, I am sure people who are comfortable with other's signal never find time and efforts to trade themselves. Moreover, I am sure that your profit level and your friend' definitely will not be same.
850  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the Best Time to sell ? on: April 29, 2021, 05:21:45 PM
Always have a good set of plans before doing anything, the market is full of surprises unless you really know what's your take with any sentiments inside the market, you'll probably still in good hands.

No one can dictate of accurately conclude when will be the good time to sell, it's up to you as holder/owner to take your position.
Yeah, when we are unable to predict with 100% accuracy then we cannot find any best time to book profits. Having plans through technical analysis will get anyone to somehow mange to catch the best time to sell still there cannot be anything guaranteed in crypto markets. What most people do is, they just fix target levels and they may not bother about best timing but they just need what level of profits for their capital, that's it.

It means you may target some 10% for your capital and then you can book profits and forget all other things. This way you can build your own best time to sell.
851  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My trading strategies on: April 29, 2021, 03:23:04 PM
I will prefer making use of intuition power (if I get chances to develop such) along with my technical analysis because having more than one method of trading will be very effective in my experience and having something completely different from other traders will remain highly profitable in my opinion.
You are not anything short of exact my imagination. Honestly I am into practice to develop my intuition power but so far I'm not successful with that. I checked few of YouTube videos to help me but I am into practice still.

I believe we can make wonderful trades if we are having more than one strategy. When we are having multiple strategies then we can get double confirmation for our entry and exit levels which will be more than enough for getting sure and huge profits.
852  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How Bitcoin almost made me rich on: April 28, 2021, 09:09:35 PM
I can consider myself to be wealthy now but well life goes on and I do need to sell those coins for me to support my needs.
This is what the exact situation of most holders in crypto space. We might turn rich by continuing our holding of cryptos but we need to pay bills and have other day to day life's expenses hence we cannot continue holding forever. I guess spending time to time for basic needs is inevitable but instead of what OP has done, I guess it will be much better if we are spending for our needs.

We are saving money for better future but saving all the earning may not be possible for everyone. It means we need to spend some portion of our earning and only the remaining portion may go for savings.
Yeah, I wonder why the sentiment around Bitcoin is "invest what you can risk to lose" because risk is always there even in real life businesses and yeah volatility is high in Bitcoins buts its more towards the positive side than the negative.

I mean Bitcoin drops $1k but rises $2k that is the kind of volatility Bitcoin has shown which I won't call volatility but rather growth pattern still I too am saving more in bitcoin after my all everyday expenses.
853  Economy / Economics / Re: China to overtake the Us as the largest global economy by 2028? on: April 28, 2021, 08:48:15 PM
Developing nations need loans and help from the richer nations and that is what China is doing now. And no one does anything for free, and it is applicable for the Western nations as well. When countries such as US and UK give out loans to poorer nations, they keep even more exploitative terms and conditions. Well.. these days they are not doing that, because they no longer have any surplus cash. Poorer countries in Africa and Asia view Chinese projects as mutually beneficial. The Chinese are helping them with large-scale infrastructure projects, which would otherwise be impossible to complete by these countries.
I can't talk on behalf of all the developing nations, I mean while they are building one thing, another thing is developed in the rich nations so they are always too late anyway but I can't talk for how good it is for them to at least reach to a certain level. However what I was trying to say is that neither USA nor China nor any other nation in the world does it for any good reason, they are not building stuff to make the world a better place, they are doing it so that they could get even richer and that's it, that is all there is about it.

If the only reason for USA, China or any other nation to help the others is to get themselves richer, that is sort of the colonist approach, maybe they are not taking slaves anymore but they are bringing stuff that is not a big problem for them and taking every last bit the other poorer nation have in return, all these super wealthy nations could afford to help the world to become great, but they are just caring about their money. Doesn't matter which one.
854  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons to use ETH on: April 28, 2021, 08:04:40 PM

What are the more reasons you think of using ETH?
It is simply because all the good things are there, that is the only reason I have. I mean sure BSC is also great, but I am using that too, nobody forces you to use ETH and nothing else, if you like some others use them too. I personally have some funds saved aside so that I can test things, I see that money as money spend on education and that means I get to do whatever I want in something brand new and learn how it works and get better understanding of it.

This is why I was capable of checking everything and they looked all great, that means if you want to use ETH go ahead and do that, there are many good things there, if you want to use something else, like BSC or Tron then go ahead and add that too, as long as you have enough money to do two things, like even 100-200 dollars, that is fine to divide into two and spend it on two different places.
855  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cheap coins flying to my attention! on: April 28, 2021, 07:12:07 PM
I just got all the cheapest coins on CMC and it’ll either be really good percentage gains or really bad haha

But this is all with “extra” money I wouldn’t be devastated with losing.

XAP, YLD, XBC, and Blocknet (BLOCK).
Honestly I do not invest into low marketcap coins that frequently because they end up being untested most of the time. That doesn't mean that they won't make any profit, even though 9 out of 10 will not be good at all, that 1 will make you x100 profit and thats awesome I agree, however reality is the ones at the top could still make you x2 and that is good enough for me, a guaranteed income from those coins means a lot more to me than the risk and potential of the low market cap ones.

I can still buy ethereum right now and there is a chance it could x2 in the next year, same with bnb, why would go with 576th coin and risk my investment for x5 when there is a x2 guaranteed eventually? Which is why I do not risk myself, my money is already not a lot, and if I risk that as well I will end up with absolutely nothing, I just go with the top three and I am loving the returns so far.
856  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 'Gold in the Hand', versus 'Chinese Bitcoin' in the Bush - Which has REAL Value? on: April 28, 2021, 06:43:48 PM
What do you mean by virtualizing of gold? Y’all should stop with all these confusion, gold remains what it is , it can’t be virtualized, but you can still invest in online and own a share of it from companies that have real gold bars (unless that’s the virtualizing of gold that you’re talking about, whereby companies dig or buy physical gold bars, and then let people own a percentage share of their storage of gold’s by investing, since people can’t go around with physical gold bars). So, I am guessing that’s what it is, because it is not changing from that.

Next thing I would like to add is that you all should stop looking for replacement, because none of these two things that you have mentioned here is going to replace the other, they are both going to still be around, just make your choice on what you like and stop trash-talking the other ffs.
857  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sell in May and Go Away. What do you think? on: April 28, 2021, 06:15:37 PM
From the image you have posted we can see that May isn’t really a bad month when it comes to bitcoin or should I say bitcoin?. But if I am going to be selling I don’t think it’s going to be all my bitcoin assets that I am going to sell, I might leave some of them, but it all depends on the situation I see the market at that time, that’s what is going to help me decide the next step to take.

As for the options of selling my altcoins to buy bitcoin, nah, I am not going to do that. This is starting to seem to me like it’s the time for altcoins, because my alts has been increasing in value a lot lately, while my bitcoin is kind of at the same point or sometimes there will be little decrease in value when the price moves to below $50k.
858  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin wasn’t created to make you rich. It was created to Enslave U & Track U on: April 28, 2021, 04:44:39 PM
Original 2009 had lofty promises

Cheap, private, be you own bank, F*ck U to the FED-BIS-IMF....

Now 2021 IRS-Coinbase rules Bitcoin-org

Most people have sold out any promise of freedom in exchange for US-GOV control 100% of btc

Nobody talks about the fact that all mining/consensus is done in China

Now they have dropped the myth of privacy, and promise you pseudo-privacy, sort of like virtual-pregnancy
Your post is showing that you’re bitter, you must be having some serious issues other than what you’re complaining about here. Maybe you list money or something like that and you just want to pour your frustration.

At first I thought you were going to be talking about the Blockchain because it’s an open space that allows anyone to be tracing your address once they have it, and that way they can know how much goes into it and out (Of course that’s how it’s meant to be), and then I discovered that you’re just confused , because you were not arriving at any point with what you are saying here. Although you are right about a lot of people that wants to get rich quick, I know that there are so many of them.
859  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Anybody here sell their Gold to buy Bitcoin? on: April 27, 2021, 08:29:42 PM
I am that kind of person. There is a project called Digital Gold. It is a stablecoin pegged to gold. Each coin is equal to a certain amount of gold. If you search, you will find a bounty company and a branch of announcements of this project for bitcoin.
In fact, the owners of the coin are the owners of the gold, and I am, that is, I was one of such owners, but I sold all my gold and bought Bitcoin with it. Thanks for attention.
If I remember correctly that is 200th such project which is faking gold as reserve and you may use google or this forum's search functionality to find all of them. Nothing new and people like you are new to adopt such shit projects and then regret later for disappointments.

Basically no devs will be rich to have that much of gold to begin a project with. So, they are simply faking something to make you people trapped.
860  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do in 2030? on: April 27, 2021, 07:42:13 PM
Many surprising things have happened to bitcoin, where many people did not expect the price to soar above the highest price of 2018. In the future, I think the price of bitcoin may bounce back from the current price, given the constant supply, but that requires more people
You mean that we need more people to adopt bitcoin so that it will peak like before? I guess so far only less than 10% of world population might have adopted bitcoins hence there are plenty of people yet to adopt and hold bitcoins; it means there are higher possibilities for bitcoin to peak toward $100k and then $1M levels as well.

2030 in almost 9 years away and we may have bitcoin into mainstream adopting within that 9 years of time, who know?
