8921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New ICO Launch. How do I market? on: September 10, 2017, 04:05:30 PM
There are a few ICOs this year that have been massively successful. They all had something in common: weeks and months of building up the ICO event. They had paid PRs, they had signature campaigns. They had videos and interviews. They got a lot of people interested, and THEN launched. This is no guarantee still, but there is success to be found in imitating success.
8922  Economy / Services / Re: Nexchange.io Signature Campaign - Up To 0.05 BTC Per User Per Week! - Text Only! on: September 10, 2017, 03:58:45 PM
Dear Nexchange, I am applying here in advance of reaching the minimum rank required, because I will reach it in less than one week (I estimate this to happen on 16th September). I am happy to only have my posts counted from that time - although I will continue to wear the signature and a personal message (as well as the avatar once I rank up) from now.

I hope you will consider my application. I recently had my previous campaign completed and wish to wear one for the long term. Thank you in advance!

8923  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ardor vs NXT on: September 10, 2017, 09:44:38 AM
Ardor will be the main chain and ignis (NXT 2.0) will be the first child chain of Ardor. If you have NXT you can participate still in the ignis ICO which will give you a discount on buying JLDRA token. 1 JLDRA = 1 Ignis. If you can't participate in the ICO than every NXT will convert into IGNIS in a ratio of 1 NXT = 0,5 Ignis. So to recap everything Ardor will be superior as it's part of the main chain and Ignis (NXT 2.0) will follow. I personally thing Ignis will be good for short term profit and ardor for long term profit.

Read and learn:
https://nxtplatform.org/ignis-ico/

Looks like quite a complicated item to look at,,, you have Ardor, and then a child chain NXT, and then with that you can get Ignis for JLDRA token? Why would you make so many layers? Anyway, look at crypto markets now. Such a huge gap from two weeks ago, not sure if further ICOs are going to be a wise move. I have to be patient and wait for this to pass.
8924  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best ICO in September on: September 09, 2017, 06:54:09 PM
I'd keep a look out for CombiCoin, which is in ICO until the end of this month --> https://triaconta.com/

Their concept is reminiscent of Iconomi (money invested per Coin bought), but much more solid and attractive imo. DYOR and take a look at their whitepaper - it's solidly thought through and professional.

Best part of participating in this ICO, as opposed to getting their products on exchanges is, you get both combicoins (which can be freely traded in major exchanges) as well as one TRIA token for every coin.
The second a CombiCoin is created and later traded, specially designed software will buy the top 30 traded cryptocurrencies equal to the value of the CombiCoin (not the top 20, not top 40: top 30 turned out to be just right - and also in a specific ratio that was optimised in simulations (for example, 7% BTC, 2,4% ETH etc)).
These tokens make it exceptionally lucrative to invest in the ICO, rather than waiting for them to be listed on an exchange, since token holders get an amount of profit the combicoins generate each month, paid out in Eth.
This means that as long as cryptocurrency is traded with a profit (which it has been for years, without any foreseeable end to it), you get a steady income for every triatoken you hold. I expect those tokens to become very valuable because of this, aside from the CombiCoins which grow in proportion to the top of the cryptomarket as a whole. All in all I can see this becoming a big player in the long term.

Sounds interesting but complicated. I know I am not the biggest genius but also not the biggest idiot, do I get this right? You get a cryptocurrency PLUS a token for investing? And every time you trade a combicoin, you also get a share of the profits from trading top 30? Sorry if I got really lost. I love this idea but have difficulty seeing how it works. I don't want to go and ask inside channel and wait Smiley
8925  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 80% of all alt coins in negative % change at the moment on: September 09, 2017, 04:55:48 PM
What you could be the reason alt coins dumping atm besides, China?

If China even has that big impact. Could it be connected with some of the published news yesterday that local exchanges will be taken down in China?

If so, I would expect increase in other exchanges but this is not the case.

Or is this a reflection of the various problems alt coins have in many verticals atm?


Or just because BTC <> USD value falling?




Dollar has been struggling for a long time now and the recovery should not happen this year, so not USD getting stronger. Just plain BTC fears, fueled by Chinese rumours and guess what? People just finally taking quick profits. And whether you like it or not, if Bitcoin goes down, alt are following the leader. Just give this until Monday to rise again. That is only 2 days away!
8926  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you think OmiseGO? on: September 09, 2017, 04:42:30 PM
Be careful of all these types of deals because the price already takes into account them. If the deals go through, the prices do not move so much since it was already expected. But if the deals do not go through, then you are in trouble.

OMG is all right for the regional movement. I read about an American version of Omisego, called Metalpay. Same concepts, maybe more interesting?
8927  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What kind of worst decisions do you take when trading? on: September 08, 2017, 12:36:34 PM
I remember when i first register on a trading platform. I buy some coins because i see that's it's moving up quickly then after i bought it and leave it. When i came back i was shock because the price decrease and i panic then i suddenly sell all my coins because i'm thinking that day was i will lose all my balance. That was a bad move because after a couple of days the price went up again and i told myself that if i trade i will not panic again.

I had a similar idiot move. I saw a thread here about a coin. I was looking to move some Bitcoin out to diversify and it was very interesting, with all sorts of predictions for September. I did some research and spent a few hours to read all about it and the move seemed too good to miss out. I went and saw the same pattern you did. moving up quickly. I bought a big amount haha. And saw it was already in profit after even a few minutes. Then I came back the next day and wham. More than 50% of Bitcoins gone. BUT unlike you I did not sell Wink Now just holding forever.
8928  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you share your secrets and research findings??? on: September 08, 2017, 08:42:12 AM
That is why we have this discussion, to share and to learn what we have found in every topic to every member. We select topics to share what is our idea about these cryptocurrency world so meaning we are sharing our secrets and our research findings.

People make the mistake, thinking if you keep the secret, you make profit longer or if you share the secret, you lose your profit. Firstly, it is not really a secret if you learn something. Others learned it first. Secondly, if you share, you get more people interested to buy and trade. Guess what, volume increases. Usage increases. You can only benefit.
8929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICOs in Isle of Man on: September 08, 2017, 06:26:23 AM
Why don't you share this link or information with us? I would also like to know more about it if this is true. The small island or island countries of the world are always looking for creative ways to make their economy or GDP more diverse. The old easy thing was gambling and tax free systems. Maybe now crypto can be the new things!
8930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: September 07, 2017, 10:29:30 AM
Newbie to Monero here. I have a small amount, but with recent price climbing I have a nice $50, which for me is a great start with no regrets to buy in later. Now I found a coin I like and I can have faith in. My burning question is this,,, why or how on earth did Dash become so much, that it is more than even Litecoin and Monero combined? And why has the recent bad news not affected Dash?

Also, why do Dash and Monero people hate each other?

Im also in it.
Its very interesting competition that makes you also think in long term because you cant pick the same team twice.
I make a lot of researches before I pick a team for the following week.

This was the confusing thing for me but I think I understand the concept now. If you pick a good team that you know must win, then you can move on to following round and so on but if you reach the final and that team is there then you won't win because you cannot pick it again. So, the strategy is clear to me. You have to risk the beginning rounds to make it into the middle. If you survive to the end you can pick the winner.
8932  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Newbie to Altcoins on: September 07, 2017, 05:37:59 AM
Hi there, I'm new to altcoins. Anyone has some usefull tips? Or a strategy that worked for you? Smiley

I’ve been a junior member last week, but of course before going to a junior member I was once a Newbie. I really don’t know what are those alternative cryptocurrency, when I was promoted to be a junior member and it’s been really hard for me to answer the topics in Altcoin Discussion. Introducing Altcoin to a Newbie is a good foundation, when I was a newbie no one introduces me about the environment of Altcoin, I only know is Bitcoin. To all Newbie’s there who aren’t know about Altcoin and no one else introduces it to you, searching and reading more articles about it will help you a lot.

I think we all remember how long it must have seemed to turn from Newbie to Junior but that slow progression was good because it forced us to read more rather than just post all the time. Reading is the best and natural way for us to learn. As people ask, and we ask, we all learn from the answers. And then we forgot about ranks and time just happened.
8933  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP is the best crypto safe haven? on: September 06, 2017, 07:31:45 PM
And that makes them legit?  the federal reserve is the biggest scam of all. The terrible monetary policies set by the fed are what ultimately led to the creation of the solution that is Bitcoin.  What the heck is even the point of all this if you want a centralized bank partnered asset?

they're probably the most "legit" token, as they're jumping through the necessary hoops to comply with everyone. mass adoption is contingent on this and you're playing yourself if you think differently (you're also playing yourself if you think bitcoin is decentralized).

the average citizen will never believe in a non-backed asset (like from a central government). taking your crypto-anarchist ethics out of the equation, most people can't comprehend nor will they take the time to understand crypto, as most people want the easiest form of everything. that's unfortunately a piece of paper with perceived value. there will always be gatekeepers like a central gov. ripple aren't idiots.



That is a double-edged blade. Leads towards centralisation, which is bad for many people. But more control and more willingness to be regulated is more secure for everyone, especially the users. It is like being ETH, but being more compliant to the powers that be. But you are right, Bitcoin is not as decentralised as sometimes we like to imagine.
8934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈🏈NFL Survivor Pool - PICKS DISCUSSION 🏈🏈🏈 on: September 06, 2017, 03:21:20 PM
First time I have seen these types of promotions. The rules seem a bit confusing to me. Is this like a knockout tournament? I thought football was played over one season against each other or do they make it differently for this time? If I join the pools later on, will it still be available or is the deadline tomorrow?
8935  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: And We Are Back! on: September 06, 2017, 06:34:36 AM
Wow. I really am so surprised by this incredible recovery. I closed my computer yesterday feeling relieved I did not buy a lot of prospects last week when everything was so high and got tempted to get into the market a little bit. Today I check the prices and see everything in green. This is Bitcoin showing off to the world it cannot be taken down. Next disaster, please!
8936  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: SysCoin - First day trade, pray for me on: September 06, 2017, 05:33:45 AM
So far, so good. It's currently at 6300 sats on Bittrex. I still have not bought in, but I am watching the price like a hawk. Anything I do from this point on will just maximize my profits. I do believe in Syscoin which is why I'll be buying back in.
Why you don't hold it for long term instead of trading it for small pennies? If you are believe with Syscoin, you don't need to worry about it.
Btw good result there, congrats mate

Yes, I was thinking the exact same thing. You made double your money on 5000 syscoins. Which was I guess around 0.16 BTC. It's very nice $600 dollars profit, and if that is your start, then congratulations. But if you really believed in syscoin should not you have bought to hold? Or, sold enough to recover capital and hold the rest worry free forever.
8937  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Burger King in cryptocurrency on: September 06, 2017, 05:13:46 AM
Oh man! this whoppercoin is for keeps. I have 5 whoppercoins in my wallet bought by my waves. Honestly, I do not care about its potential but all I care about is the free burgers.  Roll Eyes
Lol I may get some whoppercoin just for the lolz, my friends know that I’m into bitcoin wait until I tell them that I have a coin specialized to order burgers in Russia, they are going to have a big laugh with it, and then I am thinking about telling them how much I have won on the last months so I make them cry for not investing in bitcoin.

Yes, please, let us all just have a bit of fun. We are allowed to, right? So WAVES created all these whoppercoins,,, and if you buy them to buy a burger in Russia, will it be cheaper than buying it OTC at whopper for fiat? Does anyone know? I smell a business proposal here if it is somehow cheaper hehe. Maybe whales can dump Whoppercoin and buy back cheap if they want cheap meals.
8938  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it too late to buy NEO? on: September 05, 2017, 10:22:33 AM
Look back to Januari when bitcoin crashed from 1200$ to 700$ because of china. Look at it now. Neo in long term will be worth billions. Fill ur bags down the line. Second chance.
Your chance is here. Do you continue to invest in it?


yes we do

Indeed. Look at all the times China's moves have hit Bitcoin, and then look at what happened months later. China has to change its mind at some point. This move is good for everyone. It helps slow down the crazy moves up. It gives more time for people to look around and say, hey wait a minute, maybe we are going to fast. Every bad news has the field day, but Bitcoin gets stronger after getting up. And alts just follow along.
8939  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Sell NEO For Qtum Based in Singapore on: September 05, 2017, 07:53:50 AM
Response from NEO team-mate... how official does the report get?

https://i.redd.it/g6qsc003xvjz.jpg

Does he know much more than he tells? Looking at his casual smiley and response I suspect optimism... maybe NEO becomes certified China platform for all ICOs?

cmon stop this drama its been month we are talking about neo breakout and neo news bla bla bla
if they knew about the ban they would warn investors so this panic sell wont happen
ofc he is happy he didnt lose anything.

Sometimes, I find it disheartening that ICO or rather project admins take the worries and concerns of their investors and supporters so lightly. And for some project that claims to have many ties, this news should have reached them first, and then informed to people. But yes, what a casual response. You think this is optimism? Some might see it as arrogance leading to downfall.
8940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is your portfolio looking after this hit? on: September 04, 2017, 08:26:35 PM
Disclosure.  I am a 2 month newbie in cryptoworld.

In the short time, my investment tripled at one point (yep 200% gains)...now it is barely above where I started.  I know it will bounce back strong but still shocking to see all your gains (and hard work) "gone" in a few days.

How is yours???

I am more of a holder. I have a couple of coins waiting to be back to black. The rise didn't do it so now back in very red. The other few I am waiting for at least 50% so did not manage to sell anything. I only properly bought some alts also two months back. And one month back. Was too scared when I first started although with this "shock" I might take another coin.
