OP, let my offer me 2 cents. It is a good idea if the tokens themselves are the type that you cannot buy and sell in an altcoin exchange. If it garners enough amount of speculation then the pricing for the services for those tokens will also fluctuate together with the token's price.

Use a subscription model with a pricing of something like $1 = 1 token for stability.

launched a test on waves, I will add later smart contract on ethreum

A real smart contract that is coded in Solidity or just a point and click token made from the Parity client? What you are doing may be considered an easy scam you know. We have plenty of those who attempted to scam the community. If you really want to make something out of your idea, then you can start by revealing your true identity and show us all your qualifications and credentials.

bitcoin will drop to 3000 another time ...and will drop to 1500----2200 another time too
i don't agree with you. it will start to raise again. and it will break its all time high again. there is no reason for 1500-2000$

Still, all present issues are not resolved and markets are running on some good and bad news so anything can possible. It can cross all time high also or it can even go below 2000 as well.

I agree. The Chinese drama is not over yet, and I assume there is still more to come. I do not believe this is only an attack on Bitcoin exchanges but the beginning of an all out war against Bitcoin the technology itself.

Next thing the Chinese government might go after are the miners.

If some other country stop trading cryptocurrencies for some reason then prices can go down a lot. Short term investor better stay away and jump in only if you're ready for long term.

No, the do not have to because they can also short sell in the market.

I believe that you are on your own with that one unless Bitmain offers it. The good news for you is this is a community, so you might get some technical support from the mining subforum. Post your problems and questions over there and hope that someone answers it. Some replies will not be that reliable though.
8785  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it actually worth buying btc of 50€? on: September 16, 2017, 06:07:37 PM
Hello, I am actually a university student and my budget is kinda limited(a lot) so I was thinking. Is it worth to actually buy btc worth of 50€ right now?
My friend told that it's troublesome  for just that amount of money(to actually buy when I get more and the price falls low again . But I am worried in case I lose this chance now, because who knows when btc will reach 600€ again? Years? Months? Never? Even if the prices goes to x2 I think it's a pretty good deal)
What do you think?

There is surely nothing wrong with it. But do not expect to make any large sum of money from it. Being rich and achieving financial independence takes a lot of patience, hard work and a little luck. You have the correct proposition by thinking that you need to invest in something. Do not give up.

Now find a real job to have a source of income for your future investments.

Bankers is mafia. They afraid bitcoin like hell!
All we need in crytpoworld - is to build decentralised exchanges! So nobody can close them!

Decentralized exchange is local bitcoins. I see at least in my country number of people using them decrease in last years.  Centralized exchanges, ATMs or "prepaid BTC coupons" taking it over.

You have not heard of Bitsquare? https://bisq.network/

It is a decentralized exchange but what I have not figured out is, how does it store fiat? Who holds them and are they to be trusted?

I am not using it now, but it may be where everyone is going if the bans on exchanges continue in other countries.

Do not listen to any high profile banker talking about things they do not know about. The future of Bitcoin is still bright as a decentralized, censorship resistant payment system. The technology is still a "breakthrough" in case you have forgotten.

The price of course will fluctuate and Bitcoin is well known for its volatility, we already witnessed this many times. What changed? Nothing.
8790  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Bitcoin Nosedived on: September 15, 2017, 09:34:22 AM
Because of banning or rumours about banning of Bitcoin and/or Bitcoin Exchanges in and by China. China is around 25% of the Bitcoinmarket and most of the Chinese are rumoured to panicsell for lower prices because they are afraid of the ban having an even more devastating affect on the price.

They are not rumors or FUD. BTCC, one of China's largest exchanges, have already announced that they will be closing their operations on September 30, 2017 after reading a Chinese regulator's statement made 2 weeks ago. After taking everything into account, they decided to do the unexpected. Close down. Now the whole market is in panic.
8791  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should we buy now or sell? on: September 15, 2017, 09:22:49 AM
OP, if you are unsure on what to do and at what price to buy, just make a very low bid and do not worry about it. Like Sjonnebonbon01 said, $3000 is a psychological barrier. If that breaks, await all the "Bitcoin is dead" threads once again.

But I would not place my bids at $2500 - $2600. I would go lower to $2000 - $2300. The "Chinese Bitcoin Crisis" will not be over in a week. It will take a while until the PBOC has announced what their intentions are.
8792  Economy / Speculation / Re: Segwit2x upgrade on: September 14, 2017, 11:22:58 AM
Can upcoming Segwit2x destabilize BTC in the long run? And do you expect some price volatility with that?
I think the worst case scenario would happen when 3rd Bitcoin will emerge. I don't think it will be healthy for our crypto ecosystem.

What would most likely happen, and my hope, is the miners will "follow the money". Meaning if the users are not willing to adopt it, then the miners will not follow too.

You are right. Another split in the blockchain is possible. But the worst case scenario would be caused by the fact that there is no replay protection coded in Segwit2x.

People like to spread FUD saying that there will be some sort of crash with price. Similar things have been said before 1st August and BTC actually went bullish up to 5k.
Do you believe this upgrade will push Bitcoin to 10.000$ levels?

It depends.
8793  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Small investors now is your time! on: September 14, 2017, 11:08:11 AM
I agree with the OP on buying the dips but buying and holding Bitcoin for only $100? Do you people have real jobs? If you have no job, then do yourself and your family a favor and go out of your house and look for one. You cannot be rich with a $100 investment. What you should be doing is work and save some of your monthly salary to buy the dips.
8794  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: JP Morgan CEO Jamie -says "BTC is worse than Tulip Bubble" calls it a fraud on: September 13, 2017, 04:49:43 AM
Jaime Dimon, of all people, has no right to call Bitcoin a "fraud". JP Morgan was among the leading financial institutions that caused the housing bubble that caused the crisis of 2008.

It is an irresponsible statement, coming from someone of his stature. It also shows his ignorance. If he was to call anything or anyone a fraud, maybe he should first look in the mirror.

8796  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If China Bans Bitcoin Exchanges, will they also ban Bitcoin mining? on: September 13, 2017, 04:07:46 AM
Seems like it's time for Bitcoin to ban China.

Hahaha. That would certainly be good to see in the headlines. But you really cannot blame China's move though. They are feeling threatened by the all the disruption the cryptocurrencies are bringing in finance. There must be powerful people out there who are are trying to put the pressure back on Bitcoin by making threats of their own.   
8797  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: South Korean Court Rules Confiscation of Bitcoins Illegal on: September 12, 2017, 07:25:00 AM
"[it is]“not appropriate to confiscate Bitcoins as they cannot assume an objective standard value.”
Furthermore, the indication is that Bitcoin, as a cryptocurrency, has no physical representation, and thus there is essentially nothing to be confiscated, according to the courts."

It is a simple case of there are no laws made for Bitcoin yet. Some countries have not even decided if it is a commodity or a currency yet. It depends from judge to judge which should not be.

Quote
They are right. But sooner or later it will be misused by criminals, and the whole finantial system is based on virtual stuff that doesn't even exist. Banks can create money out of nothing and lend it.

Maybe they should consider illegal confiscation of bank accounts, since bank accounts are virtual nowadays Huh

This does not make any sense. Please do not tell me you are doing this to reach your 275 character limit.

8798  Economy / Speculation / Re: China banned bitcoin: 2013 VS 2017. market maturity? on: September 12, 2017, 07:19:43 AM
Ive heard it all before... china ban is harmless, nothing will happen. everyone thinks so.  Grin

It is bs and its all going down  Grin

I would not say harmless. If the Chinese government comes after the exchanges themselves, it would be a big blow on not only Bitcoin but the whole cryptocurrency ecosystem. I know nothing has happened, but I would not be one to laugh and taking it lightly.
8799  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitcoin exchanges factor ? on: September 12, 2017, 07:12:27 AM
[...]

The good that comes with regulation is that you are protected by the government in case the exchange gets hacked and you have your coins stolen. They could help you recover all of your coins or the government pays you part of it. In America it might the same as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

I doubt that even with regulation the governments will be able to recover stolen coins. They can shake their fists angrily at whoever hacked the exchange but that would probably be it. Nonetheless it would make it easier to prosecute "hacked" exchanges. With regulation exchanges have to operate more transparently, making it easier to get to the heart of the matter.

Insuring Bitcoin exchange deposits is an interesting problem. Given BTC's tendency to heavily appreciate insuring BTC deposits won't come cheaply and would probably lead to higher trading fees.

I would never say that the government would have no way of recovering hacked coins. Maybe in some situations they will, with the cooperation of other exchanges, Bitcoin mixers and some concerned Bitcoiners. With regulations, it is the responsibility of the government to put hackers or thieves behind bars.

We do not have that kind of protection today.

The people are also wiser now. Think about the times when they believed in all those bans manipulating them to sell their coins and lose money while doing it. No more. The people now buy the dips whenever there is bad news.

Is everyone now becoming permabulls? I believe so.
