From various sources, MyEtherWallet (MEW) are not under development and maintenance any more. Even its founders has confirmed that they are switching to develop a new platform called mycrypto and encourage everybody to move there property to there.
But IMO, MEW or mycrypto is just a gateway to access your real wallet in the blockchain, so, both of them are still fine event MEW is not maintained anymore, right?
until now I am still confident with MEW, before the official announcement from the developer of MEW, I will continue to use it. as long as it's still safe to use, I use the wallet address. |

Tim Draper: More Secure in Bitcoin Than the Money Sitting in Wells Fargo
Venture capitalist Tim Draper is bullish on Bitcoin and believes it will reach $250,000 in the next four years.
During a debate hosted by Intelligence Squared and the Adam Smith Society, Tim Draper was asked how Bitcoin compared with his previous tech investments in Hotmail, Skype, and Tesla. He replied bullishly, saying, “Bitcoin will be bigger than all three combined.” However, Draper didn’t leave it at that — he thinks it will be bigger than the iron age, the Renaissance, and the internet and says that the nascent technology will affect the entire world in a faster and more prevalent way than ever imagined.
The Debate: “Bitcoin is more than a bubble and here to stay.”
Backed up by Patrick Byrne (CEO of overstock), Draper took on Financial Times journalist, Gillian Tett, and Professor of Law, Eric Posner, both of whom argued that Bitcoin is indeed a bubble and strongly contested Draper’s claims. Posner and Tett called into question the “strengths” of Bitcoin, arguing that they could be regarded as weaknesses. Posner suggested that the pseudonymization of identity enabled by the technology makes Bitcoin transactions the perfect vehicle for sophisticated criminal transactions. Tett focused on the risk involved with trusting computers with finance as they can be hacked, are prone to faults, and that Bitcoin is a “terrible store of value.”
These arguments won’t be anything new to anyone who has studied the space, and the rebuttals of Draper and Byrne won’t come as a surprise either. The pair acknowledged that Bitcoin was imperfect and drew attention to the fact the technology was designed to be open source so that unforeseen problems can be managed by the community. Byrne also pointed out that although Bitcoin has been “hacked at” more than anything in history, but unlike banks, it has yet to be defeated.
Draper was more brazen in his responses and implored the crowd to use fiat if they were looking to facilitate their own criminal activity as many Bitcoin criminals get caught. The venture capitalist responded to Tett’s admission that she invests in several different fiat currencies by saying, “I’m so much more secure in my Bitcoin than I am in the money that’s sitting there in Wells Fargo.”
Who is right?
The short answer is it’s far too early to tell, but it is good to see the subject being discussed in this manner. Before the debate, Gillian Tett remarked that if both sides of an argument aren’t heard in the same room, on the same day, then the conversations can “go past one another.” It’s probably safe to say she’s right here because, although there is no shortage of media on either side of the argument, real debate on the subject can be difficult to find.
If crypto is going to head down the road Draper expects, its advocates need to be able to argue their case outside of the crypto community, and debate should be welcome as it not only gives both sides the ability to speak but also the ability to listen.
Draper’s comments are to be expected
As crypto enthusiasts, it’s easy to agree when figures like Draper sing the praises of Bitcoin, but we shouldn’t let confirmation bias get in the way of the issues. Draper is a successful investor, and he hasn’t arrived there without making mistakes. He could be wholly right, wrong, or somewhere in between — the latter is most likely. Draper allegedly owns 30,000 BTC, so he has a vested interest in Bitcoin’s success. That does not mean he is wrong, but it does mean his comments should be taken with a pinch of salt. Well-reasoned arguments are far more convincing than hype and chest beating because they allow people to make up their own minds.
The emergence of DLT might eclipse the impact of other innovations, but for now, the emphasis is not on critics to prove the crypto community wrong. It’s up to those who champion DLT to convince the world they’re right.

in my opinion, it's safer that our money be stored in a bank rather than storing it in a dopet address in the form of a digital currency. I think the security is more guaranteed in the bank, but the profit will be more if it is used as capital in crypto. I think that's the advantage. |

Hy all.
There is something bordering me and I will like to share with you all. have been wondering if we need any Jupiter to tell us that a project without team members and no whitepapers are like to scam.
My questions is that have you seen any bounty campaign without team members and the project succeeded?
If such is there please outline let look into such project and loop it out.
I will try to answer from what I know and become my previous experience. I always follow a bounty that has a good team, has Ann Thread, Whitepaper and Webseit. thus I am sure that is a successful project. |

Crypto market is been red for last 3 months. Everyone has lost money. What do you think?
this is part of our risk of trading. Regarding the decline in Etherum prices, I think the decline in etherum prices is a natural thing, because currently not only etherum is down, but other altcoins and including bitcoin are falling in price. my advice for all of us, it's best to wait and be patient to return to normal. |

As a matter of fact, it is very few number of noobs in the cryptocurrency business that understand the level at which patience is required and valuable in the business. I do tell my friends around me that wish to come in to the business “it’s only patience ones that would feed from the milk of a lion” . I bought some coins few weeks ago, which I decided to hold while it was dipping but I keep holding with zero fear and absolute patience. Presently, i’m In over 47% profit in all. My advice to my colleagues is all you need is buy into coins with good potential and relax even while it’s at dip. Trust me, you won’t live to regret anything if only you would be able to hold with patience. Thanks
I really agree with you. Your suggestion is very correct in my opinion. besides having to be patient, we are also interested in digital currencies do not have to panic with conditions that do not support. because in my opinion the key to good luck with digital currency enthusiasts is patience and not panic. |

Selama bertahun-tahun, bitcoin dan cryptocurrency lainnya tetap menjadi bahan perdebatan dunia, umumnya tidak diketahui oleh mereka yang berada di luar komunitas. Pada tahun 2009-2010, setelah penemuan bitcoin tidak pernah bernilai lebih dari $ 1 tetapi dalam dua tahun belakangan ini cryptocurrency dan blockchain telah diterima banyak kalangan yang menyebab kan lonjakan harga yang sangat tajam, serta memaksa konsumen biasa, bisnis dan institusi di seluruh dunia serta berbagai macam industri duduk dan memperhatikan semua itu.
Melihat semua itu saya rasa cryptocurrency akan jauh lebih dahsyat jika berkolaborasi dengan pemerintah dan perbankan.
tapi apakah semua pemerintah dan perbankan setiap negara mau!
kita ketahui ada beberapa negara dan perbangkan nya menerima bahkan menjadi pelopor untuk adopsi cryptocurrency, seperti Barclays di inggris yg menerima bursa coinbase setelah mendapat lisensy e-money.
apakah pemerintah indonesia dan perbangkan nya seperti inggris?
mungkin para senior2 BT bisa memberi pandangan nya.
jelas jika menurut saya cryptocurrency ini tidak akan berhasil jika tidak ada dukungan dan bantuan dari pihak bank karena kenapa sederhana saja pada saat kita melakukan transaksi dan melakukan penarikan ke dalam rupiah pasti jasa pihak bank yang sangat perlu kita gunakan jadi jika menurut saya dukungan dan bantuan dari pihak bank itu sangat membantu sekali gan. |

Hello gan, saya disini ingin mengajak anda untuk memberikan saran atau ide brilian dari agan semua tentang pengaruh peluncuran mesin ATM bitcoin di indonesia.
Seperti yang saya ketahui bahwa di belahan dunia sekarang sudah banyak komunitas bitcoin, mereka membuat cara untuk mengahasilkan sebuah bisnis yang sukses di dunia crptocurrency atau blockchain. di negara ceko di sebuah tempat namanya Praha saja tahun ini sudah membuat 10 mesin ATM khusus untuk pembuatan uang digital, itu semua di sebarkan di antar negara termasuk di negara eropa. Namun Praha bukan negara satu satunya yang pembuat uang digital, ada beberapa negara lain yang sudah membuat uang digital, contohnya los angeles dan kanada Amerika khususnya. mereka menciptakan mesin ATM untuk para investor yang tertarik untuk membeli mata uang digital secara langsung di tempat.
Pertanyaan saya, jika saja di indonesia itu bisa terjadi dan pemerintah membuat fasilitas untuk mesin ATM bitcoin khususnya transaksi 2 arah, seperti menjual atau membeli bitcoin secara langsung di tempat, apakah ini akan mempengaruhi terhadap ekonomi indonesia?dan bagaimana dampaknya ya?
karena segala sesuatu yang pemerintah ciptakan itu akan berdampak positif maupun negatif terhadap negaranya.
Jika pemerintah membuat fasilitas mesin ATM Bitcoin di Indonesia pasti dianggap kurang bermanfaat karena kenapa selain dari masih banyak masyarakat Indonesia yang kurang mengerti tentang Apa itu Bitcoin juga dilihat dari sudut keamanannya yang kurang terjamin namun hal tersebut tidak menutup kemungkinan pada suatu saat nanti di indonesia mesin ATM Bitcoin memang benar ada di Indonesia. |

The present situation of the market has caused panic into the minds of some crypto enthusiasts. Some have not seen so much dip as this. One thing i know is that, crypto is very volatile. So no matter how much it falls, it will definitely rise back. Just watch out for what will happen in few weeks' time.
I will only urge you to wait and do not sell in panic.
beforehand thanks for the positive advice. according to the question you ask, I will still wait for market conditions to improve, because I am sure that in the future everything will change even better. we need to be patient and don't panic with conditions like this. |

Yes it is good if you don't have a job before joining crypto world but I will like to seek ideas from those that have reasonable jobs and I really want to know if you truly believe in Crypto so as to give away your job and fully dedicate full time to crypto or its not worth leaving everything because I see it as a long journey which I need to learn everyday.
for me personally, I am proud to join the Bitcointalk forum. but I did not make this forum to make land for my future to look for cryptocurrency. in my opinion, we better make our future in a real job or a permanent job. I really believe in crypto, but focus on real work. use crypto to develop your business. this is the future too. |

We all know about the volatility of the crypto market, but somehow we still preach about the Hodl doctrine. What keeps you motivated to do so? and what sort of trust do you have in cryptocurrencies? Investors like us are into predictions and discussions, but are we close to accuracy? Discuss  I think there are so many reasons for them that they are motivated to save digital currencies. especially for those who have benefited a lot from the digital currency. For example like me, I am very motivated to save the altcoint that I have now because it aims to sell it when the market is stable and the altcoins that I hold today have good value. this is my reason for loading me motivated. |

Sedikit tips dari saya mungkin untuk yang belum tahu saja..
Cara mengirim gas eth agar tidak memakan terlalu banyak eth dalam pengiriman token dari myetherwallet..
1. Setting gas wei di pojok kanan atas..biasanya set standart nya 41 GWEI..ganti dengan 2 atau 3 GWEI.disini dapat menghemat sedikit pengeluran gas yang kita pergunakan dalam pengiriman token dari myetherwallet ke alamat lain
2. Jika tidak bisa di set 2 atau 3 GWEI coba naikan sedikit gas GWEI nya.sampai transaksi tersebut terproses..
Trims..sedikit tips dari saya...
Tipsnya manarik ini untuk teman-teman yang baru mengetahui i formasinya. Sebelumnya terimakasih gan, namun kita juga perlu prosesnya cepat gan, kan Tidak apa-apa kalau gasnya lebih besar dikit. Lagi pula nanti setelah melakukan prosesnya gasnya bisa dikembalikan Dong  |

Beruntung, syukur punya saya tidak diapa-apain oleh pelaku yang tidak jujur itu. Lebih baik, bagi teman-teman yang walletnya sudah diretas itu maka untuk segera menggantikan alam wallet yang baru, karena ditakutkan mereka akan kembali menguras habis asset yang akan kalian miliki nantinta. Saya ikut prihatin dengan teman2 yang menjadi target mereka. |

Baru baru ini Presiden Venezuela Nicolás Maduro telah mengumumkan bahwa cryptocurrency yang didukung minyak nasional, Petro, akan digunakan sebagai unit akun di dalam negeri,Selain itu, pemerintah akan memperkenalkan sistem gaji baru dan sistem harga untuk barang dan jasa yang berlabuh ke Petro! info: https://www.inforexnews.com/berita/cryptocurrencyMenurut saya itu tergantung dari kebijakan pemerintah, jika pemerintah kita indonesia mengambil sikap positiv dengan adanya mata uang digital saya rasa itu akan sama seperti yang diberlakukan oleh presiden venuzuella. Artinya dengan adanya demikian kita sudah maju selangkah dari negara2 yang melarang mata uang digital. |

ada yang tahu tidak..? penyebab down nya harga eth ke BTC saya rugi sampai 0.06 BTC saya membeli saat harga 0.0685BTC dua hari yang lalu sekarang eth ke BTC di perdagang kan 0.061 BTC ..  Keadaan market semuanya lagi kacau gan, Saran saya utk kita semua sebaiknya jangan Jual dulu baik Eth maupun bitcoin yang sedang kita miliki, gal ini akan menyebabkan kita rugi. Apalgai kita membelinya dengan menggunakan modal alias uang Cash. Menurut saya,Anda tahan dulu Btc yang anda miliki dengan harga yang anda beli sebelumnya. Nanti anda dapat menjualnya ketika harga akan merambah keharga tertinggi. |

Hi all,
I am a relative newbie but have remained pretty calm during the difficult last week or so. The markets are falling significantly again, is this still relatively normal and is the best advice just to HODL? Moving forward I think I will set stop losses on all holdings to protect my capital against falls like this.
Thanks
the steps you take are right in my opinion. that is, don't panic when looking at current market conditions. I think the Hold tactics we need to do to be able to take back the benefits in the future. thank you |

I want to buy some ETH more, but the market is too bleak. What should I do?
Your plan is very good, I think, at a time like this, it's great to buy more etherum if you have capital. Regarding a market that is less supportive, I don't think that is a factor that makes us doubt. thus, we must be sure that in the future ETH prices will return to normal. in my opinion, you need to buy eth now if you have capital. |

Just wondering if ya'll have a typical formula you go by or a certain X percentage profit or loss.
I've been playing around with coins for just under a month now. $23750 total investment and currently up just under 10k in profit. One of the coins (IOTA) has gone up about 288%. Obviously it would suck if it crashed but it would equally suck to sell if it continues to grow.
Just wondering what a lot of you folks do. I'm considering investing another 25 or 50k into coins. Ideally I'd like to net 15k a month off them but I know that may not be realistic on a monthly basis.
of course everyone will sell all the altcoints they have when they have a price higher than the time he bought them, meaning when they have more profits than before. suppose I buy altcoin for $ 9, then I will sell it when it reaches $ 11. |
