861  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why you should buy Bitcoin now. on: November 21, 2017, 12:20:24 PM
i checked bitcoin value everyday and sometimes it;s getting higher than usual but sometimes not, but the percentage of bitcoin value is high than to low so i think if you decide to buy bitcoin now it is a good time but you need to wait a big dump before you invest.
That is one thing that cannot be taken away at the moment which is the corrections and they are good.

However, like you have said, looking at the level of the bearish trend to the bullish trend, one would say the patience is worth it rather than panicking or looking for the best time to buy.

For those who can look at the trend for past corrections, present corrections, bull runs and use the pattern to predict a good time they can wait to buy, then good for them, but for someone who just want to buy and wait for the future, right now is the best time to buy because bitcoin has a very good future awaiting it.
862  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How I can make money with cryptocurrencies? on: November 21, 2017, 11:25:55 AM
There's a lot of way to make money with cryptocurrencies like trading, mining and airdrops.
Permit me to correct you, but I would rather say there are lots of ways but some ways are not smart. There is a difference though in earning crypto and making money with crypto, so, if I am to answer that question very well, I would say the smart way is to learn how to trade and with that you can be making a lot of money while doing so. No easy way to make money and you will have to sacrifice effort, time and some part of your brain.
863  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day Trading on: November 21, 2017, 07:05:14 AM
Day trading in forex is not the same in crypto, so exhausting.  Just buy a good coin with nice development and hodle your way to Lambo
It is really a hard thing to do honestly with the huge level of volatility and you can so be frustrated most especially when trading altcoins. BTC or ETH to USD still sounds to me like a more good option to day trade anyway. All the above, I agree to the fact that HODLing is a lot less risky and I really like the sound of holding your way to lambo Grin Nevertheless, short term or long term trading can really give a lot of profit at the end if done well than just holding.
864  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best Time To Buy Bitcoin ! Buy Buy Bitcoin ! on: November 20, 2017, 04:07:08 PM
This is the best time to buy Bitcoin !

Buy Bitcoin now or you will regret later. Listen to me; I am Moses, Bitcoin Moses; Great Great Grand father of Bitcoin Jesus but not the impostor Roger Ver, who is claiming to be Bitcoin Jesus. Believe me he is not the real Bitcoin Jesus but an impostor of Bitcoin Jesus. I forecast accurately. 

The price is on pace to break the $7000 resistance level once again. And when it does the price is going to go over that figure quite a bit which means that it's definitely a great idea to buy into bitcoin heavily right now.

We've seen this trend 2-3 times already, every time the dump is followed by an initial pump, with a period of sideways movement and then a big pump and another dump. This time should be no different, except price should be expected to go up to $8-9k at least.
Right. This is a normal trend and anyone should better take the best opportunity right now. I really want to assume bitcoin is about to kick the bull right now and start running with it and it may not be a good one for those who ends up missing out from getting the best value they can get now. As long as it broke the first resistance, possibilities of hitting it back lower is going to be difficult.
865  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Will Crash Below $3000. on: November 20, 2017, 08:06:42 AM

What happens next depends on whether bitcoin's rivals can gain usage for their coins.

With all these ICOs going and popping around, there's like a whole lot  of usage for the coins.
The usage for most of the new coins from the recent ICOs is not even huge yet except for few of them. Over time, when we start seeing real life usage for most of them with a product especially, then we will start seeing some great development for them.

All the above, I would not call them a rival for bitcoin as bitcoin has been able to set a huge pace and being able to catch up is not something I see for any of these alts.
866  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you think bitcoin be bullish in 2018? on: November 19, 2017, 06:48:34 PM
IMO yes, Bitcoin will be bullish in 2018 and my vote is it will not go beyond $20,000. I feel that the market cap should be increasing with more people entering crypto next year.
I am really trying to picture what the market cap would be like next year as the adoption is going to turn out massive than what we have had this year. So many countries are really looking into the blockchain technology at this moment; a lot of companies are looking at how they can make things work as they partake in the technology as well. However, my main worry now is the transaction fee as well as the long period of confirmation which is not really speaking well, but with the LN being established, it would really bring a huge positive impact.
867  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it time to Buy Alts & Hold??? on: November 18, 2017, 06:12:13 PM
Now that segwit2x is called off, yes, it is really the time and great time to buy altcoins. It is their time to shine because segwit2x killed them before now they should rise.
To those who would want to take the chance, now is just their best shot. Since the news was dropped, a lot of the altcoins are already springing up and we are going to end up having a huge push to the moon for most of them very soon. Any smart person now will quickly take to the exchanges to do the needful.

But in my experiences, altcoins are only good for short term and long term holding is not at all recommended. We must focus on highly established coins when concern about long term holding. But unfortunately after litecoin and eth, I am not seeing anything suitable for long term holding.
868  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: LTC price 100 USD? on: November 18, 2017, 05:52:49 PM
I think it has potential for such growth. But many external factors will not give a chance for LTC.
Still LTC is a field of experiments. Lightning is already implemented in LTC and Lee don't afraid to implement newly developed technologies. The biggest problem of LTC is Bitcoin's popularity.

Everything is possible. Remember, this Spring LTC was about 20-30$))
Definitely it has potential for growth and it has really experienced some growth for a while and has been able to at least still stay relevant on the top 10 altcoin so far according to coinmarketcap. The chances of staying for long in that position is actually very low as so many altcoins with huge potentials may end up bounding it out of the way. Compared to holding bitcoin, it has not really been that much impressive of a coin to hold.
869  Economy / Economics / Re: BTC as a national currency? on: November 18, 2017, 11:06:25 AM
So as far as we know BTC currency is growing wide, do you think there will be when it become a national currency?If yes, why?If not, why?

Its not possible today, Btc needs to develop more innovative changes like, any vouchers you can use as an offline transactions, volatility, and most importantly popularity, its a great factor that could trigger the market or the businesses online to accept Bitcoin as payment or exchange of service due to its high demand. Also one of the factors that Btc may encounter is the government, how can they implement it when Btc is decentralized. I mean you know most (if not all) of the Government in any country WANTS to control over a certain thing going around.
A lot will change and a lot of development will happen in the long run but we certainly know that even at that, government will not in any way want to give up the control they have over fiat. Highest that would happen like we are already seeing is accepting its usage and anyone who feels like can freely make use of it as payment means.

Even if they are to make use of the blockchain technology, most government would start creating their own centralized cryptocurrency which is still something we should not expect would take over paper currency until some generations are totally gone.
870  Economy / Economics / Re: Would a global disaster increase or decrease the Bitcoin value ? on: November 18, 2017, 06:12:11 AM
The bitcoin world is running by people. No people, no bitcoin. Therefore, if the disaster hit the earth, people would be gone, thus so would the bitcoin. Added to that statement, what do you mean by big wars? Nuclear wars? If so, people would cease to exist. So no bitcoin.

So, basically, whatever happens to the earth will decide whether the users of bitcoin will still run it or not.
That is just the plain case here. When we are talking about a global disaster, then obviously everyone on earth has been cleared out. In that case, there is no fiat, there is no asset, there is no cryptocurrency and there is even no internet. More like a total black out.
Whatever happens to bitcoin will happen to every other thing else. Moreover, who is even going to buy your bitcoin or anything else in such scenario when everyone is struggling to survive ?
871  Economy / Economics / Re: Central of the Philippines Recognizes Bitcoin on: November 18, 2017, 05:41:27 AM
Wow. I think it will change many lives in the Phillipines since the USD is volatile these days and bitcoin can be transferred without a bank. I hope this will help the poor in the country.
We cannot say categorically that it would help all the poor people of the country. The rich will still end up benefit the most. We all know that poverty has categories and there are some level of poverty that makes those in question not to even have access to such information or even have any means to earn it.

On the other hand, for those who learned, struggling to survive and having some information and opportunity to earn or start something for them without currency barrier for international trade, then it would be a great opportunity.
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: November 17, 2017, 04:59:16 PM
The important lesson that I learned from gambling with bitcoin is you should not be greedy and the end result always has the dependence upon the luck. However hard you make strategies, you need luck to experience the win. Because most of the events I participate were sports betting.
Greed is what has led so many people into gambling and has made them to lose so much in the long run. They feel they can just automate a system and then their strategies will keep working for them.

If it works that way, then we'd all be rich by now why the owners of the sites would have become paupers. It is all about luck and the lesson is that we should always prepare our mind and face reality before we make any decision.
873  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best way to quit gambling and start trading?? on: November 17, 2017, 03:50:25 PM
The best way is to stay away from this gambling few days and try to learn about crypto trading. And invest a small amount in any altcoin you can keep on the check that coin status and read the white papers of other well reputed coins it will kill your free time like this you can able to stop your gambling. I am not sure it will work out or not, but for me, it worked. Before I was an addicted gambler, but now I play just for my fun.
For someone who is smart, that would absolutely be a good thing to do. I wonder how some people will have so little and expect to grow it from gambling and then start moping and sobbing when things go wrong and they end up losing all.

First things first, find a better place you can earn some good amount of money, invest it into a better way if possible and let it grow.

If at the end, you are able to keep something coming it for you, no one would stop you from gambling few of it to try your luck, at least at that point, you will know it is something you can afford to lose.
874  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why people are sharing tips? on: November 17, 2017, 03:24:29 PM
They are sharing tips because they also wanted other also bet on their tips and win, it is just like sharing and caring
Sharing apparently would give them more followers and there are sometimes you learn a lot when you share to people and if you do it well, you can really see people vouching for you. To me, there is really no fun in doing it alone most especially when you are good at something, you can use that avenue to even make money for yourself as well some fame among similar interest people. This is the reason why people spend time here on this forum and Yahoo answers kind of places.
875  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to play fast on trading ? on: November 17, 2017, 01:56:44 PM
can you explain this description (how to play fast in trading).?
because I am still a beginner (newbie) and want to learn from your experience all.
thx  Smiley

Don't rush things and don't do short trading because it is risky and as a newbie you still have to exert a lot of effort studying the market and how really trading works. If you really want to make good money then you should be more patience because making money takes time. Bitcoin is really good for long term don't trade with less knowledge.
Rushing into trading has made a lot of people to rush out with huge losses. It is not something one can just dabble into thinking there is a shortcut to always make profit.

Even those who are doing it well still make some little losses, but they already have a strategy to play safe in that aspect which is what has helped them to make more profit than losses, let alone, someone who is just starting to trade and then imagining there is a fast way to trade, it does not work that way.
876  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which knowledge is important for crypto trading? on: November 17, 2017, 01:23:19 PM
Wow, I thought studying about charting and basic trading is already enough. Thanks for the tips you guys posted, this thread is really helpful. I wish I could master the skills that would fit my trading style. Thanks!
Reading or watching tutorials is a really good start, but it's very important to get some hands on experience too.
Start trading with little amounts and pick coins that are volatile (big price swings), you'll get a feel for the market and can apply your strategies immediately.

Also don't forget to make a log of your strategies and the profits or losses it generated.
There are services that offer this automatically though Smiley
Most people who have skipped that first part you have mentioned always have themselves to blame at the end.
It is very necessary to read and learn, which is where one would get strategies from, understand how to monitor and do a quick scan of a chart to make decisions and also be able to make buying, selling, profit and loss decisions.

Logs are really very good and they help a lot for cross referencing, which is what a good trader should always make use of.
877  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the risk of holding Bitcoin? on: November 17, 2017, 11:02:57 AM
With me, there is no risk when you're holding things that everyone in this world want to own it at all.
Seems you haven't read about the bitcoin yet because you lack the basic knowledge of cryptos and bitcoins. Its quite simple and everyone knows that what could be the risk of investing in a currency having volatile price. You may suffer a loss, it could be big loss or small one. So you should be mentally well prepare while investing in cryptos and bitcoin to bear a loss.
You can only suffer loss if you get scared, panic or maybe you went all in thinking bitcoin is a get rich quick scheme.
Such volatility risk is always bound to happen, but what is the point getting scared unless there is really a need to and then selling for loss, when the chart has shown you all the answer you need to know that nothing goes down with bitcoin and never come back up even better.
878  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is trading Bitcoin and other alts still profitable? on: November 17, 2017, 10:29:45 AM
At this phase? I'd say that holding is a lot more profitable then trading and It's probably safer but  If you decide to trade then do it for the long term and with coins with a good roadmap, getting involved in some pump and dump useless coins will only make you lose eventually.
I think it all depends on the person himself. If he is good at trading and he actually thinks that he can do well in the world of trading, then there is nothing bad in doing trading. In fact, trading is the best thing to do but only when you are having a very good grip on each and everything. Otherwise, there is no point of taking such kind of risk and you should go for playing a safe game instead.
Definitely, in general terms, trading is something that someone who is good and very much knowledgeable can do pretty well. It is just the determination and the willingness to learn that matters instead of trying to cut corners which would never help. At those stage of bleeding though, I would just stay away and wait until when the bleeding stops.

There are lots of opportunities hidden within trading to make us millionaires but we need to be right minded traders to make use of those opportunities. Otherwise, we can never find trading will be profitable.
879  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trading or ICO on: November 17, 2017, 07:50:36 AM
Hi, everyone. I got about $5000 to invest in crypto. Which one is more secure and profitable: trade crypto (yes, I'm a newbie) or invest in ICO?
I've made my own research and investing in several ICO's seems more attractive for me, but want to know your opinions Wink

Dont invest all your money in just one way. Try diversifying your investments, it will minimize the risks, there is always a risk involved either with investing in ICOs or with trading BTC and altcoins.
Also there is so many fake ICOs and scam projects, make your careful research before investing.
Diversifying always help in spreading risks. Normally, since that is all I have or I have set aside to invest into crypto, then I will take some part of it and invest into BTC and some other top coins that I trust to deliver after looking at the charts over the years and then HODL.

Little part of it can be spread into ICOs as they are a very good way to really make some good profit if you do some good research to invest into the right project and then the rest can go into trading after I have learnt all that it is needed to know about trading safely and efficiently. With this, the OP can never get it wrong.
880  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTG Dev's Allot Themselves 8,000 BTG's Worth $50 Million USD @ Launch on: November 17, 2017, 07:25:26 AM
Pool is currently waiting for the Devs to finish their premine and will then auto-start stratum at Block > 499407

block 491407 was 'fork' and public mining begins 499407, all 8,000 blocks in between are to be OWNED by retards in Bulgaria, ... figures, ... this keeps getting richer.

So those Bulgarians steal $50 Millions from the marketcap? How do you know that they are Bulgarians? I've checked and this is very small country.
It is not about how small the country is ? What makes that a factor anyway ? Is it not the person involved that counts ? 

The only person I can point out who is more at the fore front anyway would be Jack and I have no idea where the developer is from. All the above, I have known right from the onset that this Bitcoin Gold thing was just a pure scam for the BTG team to enrich themselves. Not like they had any solid plan about making the currency amount to anything. It is obviously dead before even arriving.
