The main reason the demand is increasing right now is because new investors are coming in and they are expecting a lot from it. I cannot say yet how long this will keep up though, but the whole speculation going on in the media and the flashes on investor's eyes and the possibilities of bitcoin increasing even further has made a whole lot of investors to want to be a part of it.

That last part is what can really be crazy about arbitrage. I have not really done much arbitrage anyway, so I cannot really say how people tend to pull that off. I am sure there are some coins one may have to watch out for on some of the exchanges most especially when they get dumped badly by a big holder on one particular exchange which may not quickly reflect on others. I may actually give it a try one of these days.

There is nothing wrong with arbitrage and no one is definitely going to put you in jail for it. It is just to take advantage of those discrepancies to make some bucks for yourself.

You have to consider however that it is not that easy to do arbitrage trading except the margin between the two coins is pretty wide. If that is the case, you can at least make something good despite the transaction fee removal as well as the time frame of transaction.

Even without holding and you are doing some pretty regular trading, you can still make some good bucks from bitcoin.

It is a crazy and risky coin to trade, but you can get some good profit from the volatility if you are good with trading. Anyone can just start with any of these coins and even the two as they are totally different market and the same analysis most times do not apply, but they can be good for both short and long term.

Once you hit the charts, you can actually scan through different coins and see how you can tap into their dumps. It is always best buying at dips and setting a sell order without forgetting to make use of the stop loss in case things want to go bad.

Most of these coins have some period they get pumped by some groups and if you can use the chart to take advantage of those moments, you can make some pretty good profit.

Personally I am doing these: Just find an altcoin, look at the charts, see the activities and how long and often some quick pumps occur and try to blend in with it. However, you should be careful for some occasions where the market is getting red, so you do not end up holding a coin that would get squashed from the bloodbath in the long run. Pump and dump coins should not be coins you should be comfortable holding for long.

The price drop is even imminent. So far though, it has really had some pretty good run and that is not a small run at all.

It should do well for itself in the future. It is a good project and anything can still happen, but for now, I would rather take my time for the whole frenzy to die down and get in, than trying to be a FOMO now. Now that it has dusted some Coins from their positions, we just have to see how far the bull run continues.

The team members are like the backbone of every project. The project may sound or look good in the eye but without a good team, it may not reach the certain point that looks perfect for investors to make some real good cash.
As long as the team is good, they will surely always come up with a good project and work very hard to make it fly. Good team always believes they are indebted to their investors which is why you just cannot miss it.

I ended up having some of this issue in the past and at the end, some of the coins ended up losing value when they started getting dumped when everyone was looking forward to get in on the BTC move.

After all, for now, I guess I just prefer staying on the bitcoin training, holding some few Altcoins with some huge prospects in my wallet and looking forward to them in the long run. That way, at least I know bitcoin keeps giving me some steady good push to the moon.

It does not have to be a huge amount of money really and that is the mistake a lot of people keep making. If the OP invested that $200 in 2010 and decided to keep a blind eye on the volatility up till this moment, then you all will know that it is something that would be worth it.

No one knows the future of bitcoin, but at least at this stage, there is a guarantee that bitcoin is here to stay no matter what people or finance punks want to say about it. I would rather invest the $200 and wait for some years to really know other things I may want to do with it to keep it growing.

What would exchanges want to expose bitcoin traders? The thing is as long as you can place the source of your money, you have nothing to be worried about and the reason why most exchanges are KYC compliant is so they can stick to the regulations and policies of the government to track down any evil doer.

If you are a business man and you receive your funds in bitcoin and decide to cash out via exchange, which will hold you and even if an alert is sent to the law enforcement agencies, you can prove your income.

Of course. For those who invested in bitcoin earlier at least some tangible amount which has made them extremely rich right now. It would be so easy for them to do some offline businesses and set up something big for themselves even if it does not have to be within the crypto atmosphere.

Aside these, when it comes to exchanges (local and global), some sweet services you can render, and then Bitcoin has really brought so many opportunities even within the industry.

The only TA or analysis now is based on the chart and the present trend, but looking at the past trends unless it is a trend that is about to change $120 - $130 sounds reasonable. It is still very far and the truth is that no one can really say what can happen, but for now, we just have to keep moving with the flow of things until we end up at that point.

I won't be surprised. LTC has really had some major push upward lately and I can say it has been having some pretty good trend upward even though it has been consistent. $150 is quite possible if it keeps moving in that pace. For now, we cannot really say much. Although the crypto space is really having some improvements lately, even better than before, so anything can happen.

Observing the flow for someone who is already panicking will not even solve any problem as that would make the person in question to even panic the more. Holding is the best and anyone who is basically not ready for that should not even bother investing in the first place.

Bitcoin is volatile and we will always get to see this moments and when the price gets so much down, simple thing is buy more if you have the cash or wait for it to get back up if you do not have any cash to buy more at that time.

Nice exchanges you have mentioned there and I have been using bittrex for a while now without issues. Yet, being a newbie, you should better get verified first before putting any funds on bittrex so you do not get locked out as some are having it presently.

We cannot start telling you how we trade and how it works, you just have to hit the books and learn and there are so many resources you can make use of if you are eager like some people have rightly said.

Yes, trading differs, but traders differ as well. You have to understand that no matter what, you just have to be good at trading to be able to earn something good from it. Good amount of money always help no doubt, but you still have to try as much as possible to do it well, so you do not end up losing those amount of money. Big or little, you can still do well in trading if you are good.

$200 is not a small amount of money to start trading within the first place anyway. I have seen a whole lot of people who have been able to double their 200 and so on without issues trading alts. You just have to understand your market and be able to make some good decisions when trading them. Chart studying helps a lot but still you have to not get too comfortable.

I would not see instability as a bad feature. It is just a normal thing that should be expected. Crypto on the other hand is still very much new and which is why we are seeing some huge level of peaks and dumps in a short while possible. It is even getting better now and no one can really say what the future holds, but it seems bright so far. Volatility will always continue but maybe at some point reduced compared to now, but can never halt and the strength of the market will determine its level.

Huge winnings like this are the type of winning that can make the winner sleepless for some number of days, most especially for someone who never imagined having such kind of money. I have dreamt of winning Jackpots in a big way and that is where it has all ended. I have never been that lucky even though I have always wished that one day I will, but we cannot always be lucky.

That is not true! Sometimes, you do not even have to put too much to win a Jackpot. You can go lower, except that your chances are low, but does not mean you cannot get lucky. I have never been that lucky though but I have seen some users of freebitco.in with very few lottery tickets winning as much as 2 BTC before than even those with huge lottery tickets. It is a game of luck but the most important thing is never to play what you cannot afford to lose.

You really cannot blame anyone for the life they have chosen and the truth is that it amuses me too when I see people considering gambling as fun.

Gambling is just like a way to get all your funds sucked up and the only people benefiting from it are those who own the casinos, both offline and online while those who see it as fun or are trying to make quick money from it are just trying to manage with the little they have and end up dashing it all out to those who already have more than them. However, like I said, it is the world we live in and different strokes for different folks.

Looking at when you dropped this and now, I guess it is something we cannot really say.

Bitcoin has already passed the $10,000 stage, but I doubt if with the little correction right now, it is going to go back to hit above $15,000. I am highly astonished for now, and I just would not even care trying to see where bitcoin is headed to, but I guess we just have to see what happens from now.

There are so many alts that are undervalued right now and only if people can do some research to find them. Waves is one of them and in a short while I won’t be surprised if it ends up having the same boost Ethereum had this year in coming years. Not just waves, there are so many alts and even upcoming ICOs and it is all about being smart.

Like someone rightly tells me, you do not have to work hard; you just have to work smart. I would not consider investing life savings into being smart though as you also have to consider all the risks involved.

Even if most governments are ready, it is one step they are trying to cautiously take so they would not end up creating too much attention than necessary for it.

Most governments know they cannot stop bitcoin and the blockchain technology is very promising, which is why we see that rather than coming out openly, they are silently regulating the exchanges while just the few who are using it are monitored through the exchanges and legalizing it will cause more enthusiasts to rush in.
