921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who else here got some KickToken? on: April 07, 2021, 04:19:21 PM
KICK is spam tokens that, in order to unfreeze, you need to register on the KickEX exchange, go through the KYC procedure and bind your Ethereum address. To unfreeze KICK tokens, you must have KEX tokens! Then you need to actively and a lot trade on this exchange and someday your coins will be unlocked. I personally will never trade on the KickEX exchange.
Hey thanks for explaining all the required procedures. It is once again proven that most airdrops are simply ending up wasting our time and efforts. I also have tried many times to spend those free kick tokens but I never get succeeded regardless of how much eth gas I will be setting up; after many attempts only I came to know about frozen airdrop.

They are simply airdropping some baits which will be leading to registering with their services and then enforcing to do KYC and lots of other trading requirements. Definitely we must ignore them in order to not profiting them just because of they are throwing out some peanuts.
922  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT keeps getting better on: April 07, 2021, 03:36:22 PM
USDT is getting more expansion by going on polkadot chain and kusama combined, this means USDT isn't playing around, I know not everyone likes USDT but what could go wrong on here? It's still the best stable coin I've known till date,  Wink don't mind me if you are USDT hater
Some of the people who are hating USDT are doing so because of how it is and there are some reasons why.
The first reason that some of them hates tether is that it is centralized and is not even hundred percent backed by the US dollars, but can be backed by any other assets, and some people are feeling that the USDT is heavily being pumped by the company or devs that runs it, so they feel that it is not reliable. That’s why there have been a lot of people talking bad about them as of recent. It all depends on you and what you like, if you don’t like USDT there are many other stable coins that you can be making use of and if you like it, then it’s up to you to be making that decision for yourself.
923  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If you had 4,000.00 USD, what would you invest in? on: April 07, 2021, 02:26:13 PM
I'm just curious to see what kind of opinions I would get in a forum like this. I'm hoping that I might learn something as a beginner in the crypto world as a result of putting this question out there. Smiley
Definitely you will get lots of interesting suggestions which are including from constructive to shilling suggestions. Because this forum is having really helping people and as well as paid shillers. So, I like to suggest you to decide based on your researches which are including suggestions from this community. I mean you should not risk just because of one opinion from this community but it could be the one, you derived out of many suggestions from here.

Personally if I'm having $4k then definitely I will buy only bitcoin for that money. Because I'm not believing in to any other altcoins anymore; just holding bitcoin is alone enough for any investor to ensure at least 10x returns in next four years.
924  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is trading an occupation? on: April 07, 2021, 01:55:19 PM
In short no its not an occupation.  You can consistently "win" or make a paycheck week to week.
Consistency is something we cannot achieve in trading; we can get paycheck time to time but there cannot be any assurance to have it on every week; this is the reason I agree trading cannot be an occupation. But it can be your side business along with your day job. Because, if you're not finishing up on week in profits still you can continue next week because you are not absolutely depending on trading for your living.

I know their story beforebecominge a pro trader because they tell their story that they spend many times, hours, and dayslearningn to trade. They say that it is hard to search for many sources but that is worth doing as now, they can make a living from trading.
Becoming up to the level of pro trader definitely requires lots of dedication. If we are ready to put efforts up to that kind of level, then we may get chances to living out of trading. But the point is, we cannot sustain into trading with capital until we learn all the required things. Yes, you may get enforced to quit trading in middle as you may get any resources to top up your capital.
925  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you think crypto trading can help nation with no Job create jobs? on: April 07, 2021, 11:38:02 AM
Well, get low end computers, the ones for like 100 dollars at most, there are even cheaper if you want, get 100 of them and you are down 10k dollars, get infrastructure ready as well and let's say that is another 10k, that is 20 dollars spent.

After that there is of course monthly costs, like electricity and internet and water etc etc. But right now with all of that you have 100 people working for you as a click farmer if nothing else, you give them jobs to do and they can do all those low level jobs but combined with 8-10 hours a day for a whole month with 100 people? That will certainly worth some money.
Naah Shocked how are you going to be able to sustain yourself with trading? For me I feel it’s best that you do trading while you have another job to help sustain yourself. Of course I have seen people who got rich by trading cryptocurrency, but it didn’t happen just in a day, they had other things doing and when they started making huge money from trading enough to sustain them, they decided to leave their old boring jobs and go full time on it.

But, I also noticed that some of these people try to invest in other businesses to help themselves, because they know very that trading and investing is not what you’re going to fully rely on, it’s not every time that you’re making profit.
926  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A book to read on when to sell (before a crash) on: April 07, 2021, 01:55:01 AM
I am not willing to trade on a daily basis, but I know for example about the 2017 crash.
Is there a reputable book, written by a reputable author, on how to know when to sell? It's like if a crypto goes 50x in one year there is a chance at some point that there will be a crash. I need to know APPROXIMATELY when I should sell.
There is nothing like a specific time for selling, if there was a thing like that then I guess nobody is losing in the market because we are all going to know when it will be crashing, let’s say when it goes 50x, but no the market wouldn’t be like that.

That is why it is good that you have your own target first and when you have reached that target you can decide to sell half of the assets and the rest you can then hold with caution and keep an eye on the market when it will go the direction you wouldn’t want. That’s the best thing you’re going to do, if  you keep waiting for when you will know what you’re looking for, then you will be waiting forever because no one has that kind of information and anyone that says they know it is sure lying.
927  Economy / Speculation / Re: How fast do you think will Bitcoin reach $100k? on: April 06, 2021, 07:42:13 PM
Not so fast because we can not expect it to happen quickly, maybe that will be more than 4-5 months later since the bitcoin price is still at $58k-$59k, so we need to be patient for more. But the chance to reach $100k still wide open as we see the big company already involved in bitcoin to convince people to follow to invest in bitcoin. We need to hold on tight to our bitcoin because I think we will see a roller coaster this year. You should use your chance to buy bitcoin at a low price.
Price is around 60k right now but that's right now, in 3 months or so we will be deep into summer and that's going to change things a lot, historically speaking summer hasn't been kind to bitcoin price, actually summer hasn't been kind to price of anything aside from maybe few vacation related stuff (big hotel chains, airlines etc) so I think it's going to be tough.

However if we can cover that and not drop too much that would mean that on last part of third quarter and start of fourth quarter we could actually increase a lot. If you check all the price increases in crypto you will see that there has always been some calm period that doesn't move a lot, sure 10-50% higher or 10-50% lower could happen but usually nothing too drastic, then suddenly it reaches like 5x higher. That's why I think if we can survive the summer, we could definitely reach to 100k very easily in a month after that.
928  Economy / Speculation / Re: April 14, Coinbase IPO and pump on bitcoin? on: April 06, 2021, 07:09:12 PM
If you ask me, bitcoin presently is slowing down with  the pumps becoming weaker on the market. I reckon only more institutional investors’ billions can push this to the predicted $100k target and it appears an approval of an ETF by the US SEC might be one of the ways.

However, is Coinbase’ IPO another way or is the IPO positive only for Coinbase?
I would have to say this is a great news for coinbase shareholders or partners or whoever will be profiting from this but I do not see how this would help people in crypto. What are you expecting, coinbase to get all that money and buy bitcoin with it? I do not think that it would be possible for them to do something like that, I believe they will probably just keep that cash, either grow the business bigger or they would simply just take that money to home.

You think every single company that sells its shares uses that to grow bigger? Some of them are just shareholders who are selling right after it is listed on nasdaq because they would prefer the cash. I have to say since bitcoin is growing bigger and bigger and coinbase is the most known crypto exchange in all of USA, I think that would mean coinbase shares will be overpriced at first, get to a good price, then it will definitely go up a lot in the future, could be a good investment.
929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you think the price of BNB will go above $ 300? on: April 06, 2021, 06:48:11 PM
I keep telling people that BNB could easily reach 1000 dollars and they are not giving it enough attention.
How do you think it became the third biggest coin so quickly when it was barely in top ten just a few months ago?

Those people are working really hard to make BSC the best defi place ever, they are stealing projects from ethereum and bringing them to BSC as well, there are so many projects that work both on eth and now on bsc (no idea how technically that works, wrapped or something I guess) because it is such a better platform and cheaper and faster and now it has a lot of volume as well.

This is why BNB will only go higher, the bigger BSC gets the higher BNB gets and I do not see a reason why it would stop. Only thing I can see right now could be the fact that on July there will be eip 1559 for ethereum and that might make it cheaper and get some customers from BSC, aside from that everything looks perfect for BNB.
930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Prepared for the big and long dump this year. on: April 06, 2021, 06:07:22 PM
I can't help but make a qoute of this post, according to the @op eth don't have the capacity to reach $2000, misteriously as i type eth is currently trading at $2,102.93 which is definately above $2k, and eth falling back to $1k, perhaps that will happen in the future who knows, howeve, going by what the majority are saying about the upcoming alts season, there is high probability eth will surpase current price by good margin,

And speaking of xrp, the wonder project, lol, right now xrp is few numbers away fro $1, $0.95 to be precise, who ever thought this coin will see another rise in price after all their shenanigans with the SEC, it seems this coin is stronger than what people give it credit for, i bet @op will agree with me  Cheesy

Dot, @op beleives this is a bubble that will soon fade away, well so far so good, dot has been performing tremendously, many new project on polkadot blockchain, even though i can't seem to understand why the op think otherwise (of course we are each entitled to our opinion) but i believe dot is just getting started, just like i believe the dump of this time won't be as hard as it was few years back.
You are 100% right. And to be quite honest when someone says "it can't be x amount" and it beats that amount it is a proof that everything else said in that message is not credible neither. When someone is wrong about just one thing they will not be cared, doesn't mean that they will be wrong on the others it just means I will not care about it.

So, we know that he was wrong about ETH price and now it is over 2k that means we should not care about OP and what he said any longer, it's over, it should not be credible enough to talk about him. I believe eth will be bigger, I believe alts will be bigger, I believe we are just at the start of everything. For another year or so we are going to keep seeing big increases in altcoins, people made money on bitcoins but more people came in hearing that and now they want to make money like bitcoin investors did so they are all putting money into altcoins.
931  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing only for the rich? Think again on: April 06, 2021, 02:19:08 PM
It is not true that " INVESTMENT" is applicable only for the rich people. Moreover, Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is very open to everyone in the world. Because there are some rich people begun with a Poor status then became one of the wealthy one now.
Moreover, just because of bitcoin I got the chances to save something out of my hard work which is slowly turning into a highly profitable investment over the time. It means definitely investment is not only for rich people but it is possible and profitable for anyone who are all thinking smartly to have their future financially secured.

Investment is referring to everyone who have the guts and prepared to lose their capital for whatever business it is.
That's true. By investment, we are taking risks, no doubts. But we can take calculated risks which means when we are analytically approach investment opportunities then we can minimize the risks levels which will obviously lead to the core reason for maximizing profits.
932  Economy / Economics / Re: How will financial crisis affect crypto? on: April 06, 2021, 09:06:34 AM
What we lived in pandemic crash was a pandemic crash, it wasn't just a financial crisis like any other, it was a health thing that kept everyone at home and most business' didn't even worked so the prices of crypto and stocks and gold and oil and basically every asset went down, because it was not just a financial crisis, it was a pandemic crisis.
Yeah, moreover I understand this pandemic crisis is more worse than what we usually have in the name of financial crisis. Yes, pandemic crisis will lead to financial crisis in obvious manner still getting worst in financial ways is more deeper with this pandemic crisis than what I have experienced in 2008 financial crisis.

while some people still at this point in time of financial crisis opened the door of opportunity  for study, research and for people have money they invest in  crypto because  now that they more time to study it, and learn form it because of lockdown.
Those learning and researching field summing up only very low percentage of people in your economy which means people who are benefiting because of this pandemic is very lesser than people are getting affected. A healthy economic growth must ensure progress of all level of people not just one segment related people.
933  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Btc and alts on: April 06, 2021, 08:18:56 AM
I am confused among these, cauze people says
 
1. Btc pump then alts dump
2. Alts pump then btc dump
3. Both btc and alts follow each other 
That you’re seeing the third scenario taking place now doesn’t mean that the rest cannot also take place, it all takes time and you see them happening, they all happen, but not all the time. Even now that you think that the third scenario is taking place, you’re forgetting that there are still altcoins that are not following BTC right now.

I guess you only looked at coins like Ethereum and other similar coins and you think that the whole market is moving that way, but that is not true. If you’re making use of Coinbase app you’re going to be able to see coins that are not correlating and you will also see the ones that are correlating with bitcoin.
934  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin will replace oil and Gold on: April 06, 2021, 04:54:15 AM
Governments all around the World Secretly start using together with banks the bitcoins.
Oil is done so They replace bitcoin instead of oil.

The btc volatility might go like daily 50k-100k price Changes.

Bitcoin will be instutionalized permanently.
The Global market prices Liqutation postion will be fluctuated by Bitcoin price.


I said this before but nobody didnt listen but now its here!!
Gold and Oil didn't replaced anything, and they will not be replaced, they are their own thing. Back in the day gold was very valuable not because of financial reasons but because people lacked it so much and it was used for things, eventually it turned into asset of course and now there are people who use it like just investment.

Same goes for oil, back in the day it was something that was used in many many many different places and these days it is still used like crazy, gold is not used "that" much anymore, even payments were made in gold back in the day but now there is limited places that uses gold, whereas oil is still used like hell but we still have people who own "oil" in assets, they do not actually own it, they just own it virtually and just sell it when it goes higher. Same could be said for bitcoin, people will either use it, or maybe just let it be an asset, doesn't need to replace anything, it could be its own thing.
935  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: NEW INNOVATIVE BITCOIN MIXER on: April 05, 2021, 04:57:17 PM
The mixer not only mixes your bitcoins, it converts them into Monero and then into Bitcoin, which ensures a high degree of anonymity.
It means your mixing services are highly depending on some crypto exchanges? A bitcoin mixing services can do marvelous level of anonymity just by having bitcoins itself and excluding any role by exchanges. Because, exchange hacks are most common these days and your customers need to pay excess fee for converting into monero and then convert back to bitcoins.

Smartmix is a Bitcoin mixer created in january, which allows you to improve your privacy.
In the coming weeks, the site will appear on the clearnet and in classic search engines.
You started in January and it is already April still you need few more weeks to bring a full-fledged services? Getting fully ready must be a good practice before announcing/introducing a services here on this community. I mean your first impression should be the best one.
936  Economy / Speculation / Re: Paypal allows crypto payment for all 29mil merchants on: April 04, 2021, 08:39:09 PM
Quote
PayPal customers can now use the cryptocurrency in their PayPal account to pay for goods and services online. The payments giant will automatically convert the users’ cryptocurrency into fiat before settling the transaction, so this will not change anything for merchants.

The supported cryptocurrencies on PayPal so far are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin.


But it's currently only supported 4 coins, hopefully they will allow other coin as well in the future.
I think this is going to be a decent news but nothing big. I mean when paypal got involved they bought some to make sure that they are backing it up, SEC is no joke about these things, if you tell people that they own bitcoin at paypal platform that means paypal should have that much bitcoin to back up that claim otherwise SEC would destroy them. That is why the initial launch was a big deal and it helped us increase a bit thanks to it.

However I do not agree that this one is as important as that one, there is clearly some difference and that is why I think it should not be considered equals. It is definitely not the same because we are talking about just newer versions of the old news, it is just improving, the first initial launch is obviously bigger deal, whereas improving on that launch is just good news but nothing could compare to what it was.
937  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you like Volatility? Debate on: April 04, 2021, 08:07:49 PM
I do think that Volatility is an amazing opportunity to not only gain some Bitcoins but also perfect for interday trading, at the same time for people who did miss the opportunity to buy some at the right time, it gives you an opportunity to make that right. At the same time I do trust that we can always achieve ATH therefore it's also a matter of patience. It's not like you would loose when the value goes down. So if you have : Patience and you did miss your chance, I do think Volatility is a healthy thing for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoins. Then again we don't need to always compare Bitcoins with things like : traditional money 💸 , it's a whole different story.

What do you think ?
I have to be honest about this, I am in a sort of dilemma about this subject. I am not a person who trades a lot, I usually invest and let it be and I am not planning on selling so for me it could just go up forever and never down, straight arrow up without ever going down and that would be fine with me. However I know that can't happen, so I rather have the last 6 months to continue for another 60 years and that would be great, even if that is not going to happen neither I am just hoping for it.

However I also support unregulated markets and currency that could be used anyway we want and no governments getting involved as well, even though more and more countries do get involved we at least have something we could say ours here with decentralization, yet that causes some of the volatility itself. So, I am not sure what I like but I am fine with the current situation, let's leave it at that.
938  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading without experience and knowledge on: April 04, 2021, 06:55:22 PM
Trading has become an activity that is often carried out by cryptocurrency enthusiasts, when you hold coins you are indirectly required to understand how to trade, at least how to sell and buy on exchanges is general knowledge that every cryptocurrency enthusiast must have.

But as the cryptocurrency ecosystem develops, there are lots of trading signals that eventually make many cryptocurrency enthusiasts who have no experience or knowledge of trading try to trade in order to find daily profits.

In your opinion, can someone trading without experience or knowledge?
The basic rules of trading hasn’t changed, it is still to buy low and sell when it’s high. Nobody tells you what to do, and because you’re buying low and selling low doesn’t mean that everyone is going to do the same with you, everyday there are people who are buying Bitcoin and everyone that is buying is buying with hope that the market is going to increase and they will make profit.

It’s just like in 2017, the market got to 20,000 dollars and even at that rate there were still lots of people who were buying and they were all hoping that they are going to make profit, so it’s the same thing with now. I mean just get into trading with basic knowledge and then over experiences you can lean all the required knowledge and strategies.
939  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dump just after a new listing? on: April 03, 2021, 05:59:07 PM
Never heard of this coin. Probably some shit coins.
I thought the same but actually, the coin did pretty well so not sure if the bull run helped it or the coin was made with some seriousness and team behind it.

The first dump was probably due to the fact that the bounty hunters and those who received the coins were dumping everything for bitcoin or other well known altcoin.
This is the biggest problem and why I believe giving out too many tokens during bounty campaigns is going hard against the project itself. Instead of giving out too many coins, I would rather suggest them to do a small campaign and spend small enough that it does not impact the token's price later. There are some thoughts that bounty tokens should be locked for a fixed period of time, but I can't see the bounty hunters working so hard and then not being able to sell the coins when it has the best value.
940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can I hold Tron for better earn?is it a good idea? on: April 03, 2021, 09:01:10 AM
I am very new in cryptocurrency but i always try to gather all crypto-currency news,tron started with $0.001091 in September 2017.I Think when CEO Justin sun started partnership of south korean Electronic giants Samsung, After those time tron price run for the future. Many predictors,predicts tron reach $0.08 by 2025. The price of Tron is coming to the market earlier than expected. Can I expect more in 2025 then? That's why i want to hold it.can it profitable  for crypto holders?
Tron is actually one of the only coins which didn't saw the bull run benefit it, while even the worst coins had a positive change in price. But recently it has started to gain some value again and signs are looking good. I don't check Tron's price very often but from what I have seen, it remained static around 4-5 cents for a long period despite BTC and other coins rallying higher.

I am not a firm believer in Tron, to be honest. That said, I am sure it will never drop too much either, it is like how ethereum 2-3 years earlier was, neither dropping too low nor raising too high. All I can say is that Tron is not bad for investment but there are certainly way better choices if you analyze the market, I won't name any because I don't want to be the reason for someone's loss.
