In trading I often follow the signals from my teacher and I always profit Smiley if following his direction. Here the group Telegram Short-Long term Trade signals with Technical Analys https://t.me/CryptocurrencyTrends               
Website : http://cryptocurrencytrends.co/
Is here someone who follows the signal of others to get profit in trading?

Thank you for sharing this trading signal to follow.

But personally, I don't like to follow them because its more likely that they are just another pump and dump group. So I surely hope that you know what I mean by that. The problem with those group is that its only a few member you really get profit and the rest are either trap and can't get exit, or you will be left behind because they act as a coordinated group. Timezones are a big factor here, and you don't want to stay late do you? There might be others who profit from following someone but I doubt they will reveal their sources here. Anyways, good luck to you following your teacher and hope that you really profit in the long run.
8762  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: MEW Wallet on: September 25, 2017, 10:00:24 AM
Is it safe to store several thousands worth of eth and tokens in there? I want to create the offline version but im not really sure how to do that?

If no one can get my key, am i safe then? Or can it get hacked? I kinda hate this side of the game really. With all these ahole hackers.
yes it is more safe if you do not share your private key to anyone that's it. you just create your MEW account and print your private key  and then save it in your safe place. even then you are totally safe.

Well I haven't used myetherwallet before but I created a wallet just to play around with it. So just like any wallets out there, you need to save your ETH wallet, Private Key and your Password to a safe and secured location.

Question though:

Is it safe to used just 1 wallet in joining the bounties? Let's say I joined a bounty and it finished today and I want to join another, it is safe to create another wallet for the 2nd bounty or just used the the previous wallet? Will there be any complications if tokens come from 2 different ICO's? Can 1 myetherwallet handled 2 different tokens?

We see sometimes bitcoin price increase or decrease. How I can predict whether bitcoin price increase or decrease.Again, who controll this price.I appreciate if you kindly share your experience.

No one can really predict the price of bitcoin. I think even TA is not applicable to bitcoin market I believed because the price is really unstable. Although a lot of members try to used TA, some of them give up trying to plot a graph because it doesn't work. So already have to bare in mind that bitcoin is purely speculative, if there are good news coming our way, the price could spike as little as 24 hours, same as with a negative news it would drove to price to dive. Example is the Chinese banning ICO and the closing of the Chinese local exchange. You see the price plummeted to $2800 before recovering close to $4000, but the current price is $36xx.
8764  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-09-24] Malaysia’s Legalization of BTC Could Bring Millions of New Users on: September 25, 2017, 08:18:53 AM
Good to hear news like that in the time when most news are coming from Chine and deflate the value of bitcoin.
I just hope that regulation of bitcoin in Malaysia will not mean taxation of fiat-bitcoin trading.

If then meant that they are regulating it like the Philippines, then taxation is unavoidable. However, this is still welcoming news for everyone that lives in Malaysia, and I'm pretty sure that there are thousands bitcoin enthusiast there, similar to Philippines, but when the Central Bank of the Philippines started acknowledged bitcoin, the Philippines increases its number of users specially in the remittance sector. We all know that there are a lot of Malaysia's abroad so sending money would not difficult if they used bitcoin->ringgit conversion. Let's see how this story evolved specially in 2018.
8765  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC? on: September 25, 2017, 05:19:49 AM
its a good opportunity for for millionaire and billionaire to invest their capital in such a large market accepteble currency for future profits.
2nd way to invest in bitcoin is also good because from this they show a way to others that how were they become billionaire.

If I become a billionaire because of trading in forex or investments, then I will go into bitcoin investment or trading as well. Because I've been successful in forex, so more likely my experience will tell me that its possible that I can get huge profit if I dig my hand into crypto. But if I become a billionaire because I just inherit it to my parents then I doubt I will go into it.

However, you don't need to be a billionaire to be able to see that bitcoin is a good investment. Its not rocket science, that's why even casuals or middle american are into bitcoin now. Very easy to profit, you will just put you investment into it. Just buy and store in somewhere safe and in few years time you will see your investment grows.
8766  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is there anything similar between cryptocurrency and torrents? on: September 25, 2017, 05:08:21 AM
can you please explain to me what's their connection between cryptocurrencies and torrents? I know that both p2p
I also know that many countries see torrent downloads as a bad thing and have laws against it.



Torrents moves files or data using peer-to-peer connection, while bitcoin/blockchain uses peer-to-peer aslo, they uses a decentralized network called blockchain that is spread across different nodes. Torrents don't used this kind of ledger. So you don't lose any information, unlike in a torrent that if the seeders decided to stop seeding, you will have a difficult time to download it again.

But you are correct, there are countries that totally ban torrent downloads, but if you can used VPN to hide your ip adress so that you remain completely anonymous so that you can still continue to download pirated movies, softwares etc..

8767  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ★★Which are the upcoming ICOs with working product?★★ on: September 25, 2017, 04:47:41 AM
If they have a "working product" then why do they need an ICO ?
Actually it's a good question but they need money to expand their product in various ways. I'm not sure about this but all the whitepapers of working product states something like this. It's always better to invest in a real working product than investing in an imaginary companies which may launch their product after 2 years. Though there are some exceptions!

Exactly, they want to tap into new investors and expand their delivery channels. If you based on every whitepaper this ICO's you will find their roadmap and as to where they are moving. And maybe to go further they at need a little push with the help of new investors. Or sometimes they want to tap to unchartered and new territories like Bitdice did in their ICO. They have been successful in the bitcoin gambling scene but they want to expand even further by going into Fiat territory and they raised close to 9M if I'm not mistaken.
8768  Economy / Exchanges / Re: EXCHANGER on: September 24, 2017, 06:40:34 AM
which exchanger is better? safer? faster?

bittrex, poloniex, c-cex?

Bittrex if I were to choose between the 3. Here is Bittrex ANN thread. You may want to check it out. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=463202.0. And be the judge.

Here is a thread for service comparison: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1947156.0.

But based on experience I prefer Kraken. Here's their ANN thread.

8769  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-09-21] This Ransomware Demands Nudes Instead of Bitcoin on: September 24, 2017, 06:19:42 AM
This one seems like a prank, especially since it does not actually encrypt files, which means that a victim theoretically would not really have to send the hackers anything if he/she could figure out a way to disable or circumvent the screenlocker. I had to laugh at this part however:

Quote
To some extent, the malware does appear to be legitimate.

The idea of legitimate malware seems like an oxymoron (contradiction in terms) to me, kind of like "legitimate rape", "somewhat (or a little bit) pregnant", or even "efficient bureaucracy". Smiley

Well could be a prank and maybe the hackers are expecting that someone would send them nude pictures of the victims. I guess you can send anyone's nude picture here, including your grandma  Grin. But seriously, I think the hackers is just testing his trojan/malware and how many computers can it infect. And then he will unleash v2.0 which is more malicious than this one, and maybe will do a ransomware. But for now, I hope no one will fall for this prank. You can need to figure out how to disable this virus and clean it up yourself.
8770  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day trade or Hodling on: September 24, 2017, 06:06:08 AM
Nah. I will just hold on my coins. I think trading is not for me, admittedly. Although being a trader means that you can play around and profit daily, weekly or monthly, I'm not up to that task. I'm afraid that my emotions would take over and instead of profiting from it, I might lose a lot. Though you at a point can mitigate risk, but I don't know. But by just buying and holding, specially if you are in it for the long haul, you can just watch how your investment grow. No worries, no need to wake up in the wee hours in the morning to do trading. Of course, when the price goes down, you feel nervous and panic, but I have my way of dealing with it. By not looking at the price very often. LOL.
8771  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: fall of bitcoin Necessary............bitcoin is a threat For the dollar on: September 24, 2017, 05:48:46 AM
I don't think bitcoin is going to fall, but I agree that it is necessary for bitcoin to correct a bit, to shrug off weak hands, and start heading towards new highs. I do not think bitcoin is a threat for the dollar..
That's quite true, a correction is always needed if an asset's value increases way too much in a short span of time. The correction is done so that the assets value increases with more stability and others get a chance to buy it a market price. Bitcoin is at reasonable price now and I think many are buying it these days.
Bitcoin is never a threat to dollar, not only dollar but any currency. People who say its a threat should look at the technology it has and the way it runs.

But the thing its not the people but the government who think bitcoin is a threat to them, financially and in the economics of their country. But if they would just look closer at how bitcoin works, they can find positive thing about it and it is not threatening anyone. But they think otherwise, they consider bitcoin's decentralized as one of the factors that they are afraid of. No one is in control, no regulations whatsoever. But they really deny that fact that bitcoin is taking the world by storm.

If a country chooses to ignore bitcoin, then they will be left behind. Bitcoin is not fiat's enemy, but they can work together to improved the lives of many people that depend on bitcoin.
8772  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: South African Reserve bank says bitcoin not a legal tender, : regulation move on: September 24, 2017, 05:18:55 AM
South African Reserve Bank says bitcoin is not a legal tender because only the banks are capable and authorized by the South African Government to issue a legal tender.

Continuous regulatory governments involvement in bitcoin keeps on spiking up, due to the huge popularity that the cryptocurrency has gotten and went extremely mainstream.

The bank thinks that there are huge risks on cryptocurrencies, like for money laundering and legal uncertainty caused by lack of regulation.

Read More => https://zycrypto.com/south-african-reserve-bank-bitcoin-not-legal-tender/


Bitcoin is not legal tender, because it is not a fiat currency. There are no laws backing bitcoin saying that it must be accepted by merchants or it is a national currency.

Every single country is introducing new means of limiting how bitcoin can be used it seems.

And imo, it has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not bitcoin is a high risk investment and whether or not bitcoin has a founder. The governments are scared that bitcoin is going to drive them out of their business and power, essentially.

Exactly, they are just making lame excuses not to accept bitcoin. But the real reason behind is that they are really afraid specially big bankers that they will be extinct because bitcoin will take over. So to somewhat control it, they are putting 'regulations' so that they can limit how it can be used. They can't really hide the fact that bitcoin has been hugging the limelight and this year alone its surges at $5000. So they have to do something otherwise banks will be irrelevant in the coming years.

But they have a point saying that there are huge risk in crypto currencies. I have to agree. But now everyone should now about that. But if you are willing to take risk then why not? Or just set up a tighter regulation so that the government have something fall back if something went out of the normal.

8777  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Beaware North Korean Hackers are targeting exchanges! on: September 21, 2017, 01:24:10 PM
I would be surprise if they hadn't done it yet. I assumed that they are targeting South Korean exchanges and as far I can remember there was one S. Korean that was hacked recently. But I don't know if North Korean is too blame. They have even a school who taught how to do cyber attacks. They called it Unit 180. So its really possible with so much money involved in a exchange a likelihood that North Korea will target it is very high.

8778  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If exchanger cryptocurrency China is close ? on: September 21, 2017, 12:43:13 PM
There is no doubt that recent shutdown of bitcoin trading platforms in china is temporary one and we might soon see new bitcoin trading platform with new bitcoin trading license and really huge tax owned by big bankers of china with new set of rules and intense monitoring. Wink


I just hope so. They have already put a tighter regulations on them when they were caught doing fake volumes early this year so I don't know what regulations should be added to just let them go operational on the next coming months if ever they would be allowed by the government. My personal believe says that they are going to completely shut them off. Just my personal opinion.

if it's closed forever.
What  we can sell bitcoin using Paypal ? ( For citizen from China )
If we can sell bitcoin pair with Paypal , how can do it ?
I think this is a silly idea because of the conflicting nature between cryptocurrency and paypal.

Cryptocurrency : Decentralized
Paypal : Centralized. in government supervision.

Too much risk if you buy or sell using Paypal. Chances of a scam is greater if you used it. Its just sad to see what the government of China has done after enjoying it and made most of them millionaires. I'm not sure what options do the Chinese have but to go and leave the country if they really want to go full trading in bitcoin market.

What would people face in china if they buy crypto ?

I personally believe that nothing would happen to them, yet. But soon as Chinese government includes bans on Chinese getting their hands on bitcoin, then its another story. I would probably go some places where bitcoin is traded freely than stay on China. Its just a matter of time before they actually impose laws pertaining on buying bitcoin and crypto in general.
8780  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: advice about wallets on: September 21, 2017, 11:41:35 AM
what are the most trusted wallets for btc and eth

For bitcoin, I have used Electrum and so far this is the most trusted and safest wallet out there besides the Core wallet. However, Electrum is very fast and lightweight as well. You do not need to download the whole blockchain to be able to used it. And fees can be adjusted dynamically. So you have options to adjust it depending on your needs. And for your protection, you need to backup your seeds and private keys just in case something went awry on your laptop or PC.

For ETH - Jaxx wallet supports both ETH and BTC, however, there have been issues lately on Jaxx so I stop using it. I have tried MEW(MyEtherWallet) so far I haven't had anything bad to say about it. But just like any other wallet, backup is needed as well.
