2  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: KuCoin vs Binance on: June 12, 2018, 02:56:21 AM
These are, or course, two great and well established exchanges. The Kucoin ui seems a bit more straight forward, but I am personally more comfortable and experienced with the Binance ui.

As you have referred yourself on Kucoin, I have referred myself on Binance and receive a nice bonus with each trade Tongue .

As for credibility and volume traded, Binance certainly takes the crown. Binance has a much larger user base and its trade volume is ~35-40x that of Kucoin - Binance is currently #2 for trade volume on Coinmarketcap while Kucoin is currently #40.

Well, judging a cryptocurrency based on its per coin/token value is certainly not the best option. For example, the #3 coin on coinmarketcap - Ripple (XRP) - is currently trading at below 60 cents per token and has a market cap of nearly $24 Billion!

Rather than judging a cryptocurrency by its per coin/token value, you should should judge it by its: chart, marketcap, and/or potential return (%). You could also add in a few other metrics like the company/currency's market share, market size, and notability of its brand.
4  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Have you ever exchanged BTC face to face? on: June 07, 2018, 09:55:03 PM
I have exchanged BTC in person a few times. It has always gone very well and the other party has always been very professional and polite. I have, however, only ever been the seller and have only ever accepted cash as a form of payment.

If you ever decide to exchange f2f, I strongly recommend meeting at a restaurant - or cafe - to avoid a VERY awkward 30 minutes while the transaction confirms (learned that the hard way). Also, only use cash or instantly claimable gift cards (like Amazon or Itunes) to avoid charge-backs.

Other than that, f2f exchanges are a great way to get your cash or BTC immediately - just be careful and always meet in a comfortable public place.

*sigh* now this is just getting ridiculous  Undecided. Bitcoin Diamond... really? Do people actually think that we need all of these forks and they will actually improve the community? Sure BCC seems to be doing well and may have been needed, but I highly doubt that these other forks (BTG, Bitcoin Diamond, and Segwit2x- which the devs made the respectable decision to stop its development and do what they felt was best for the community).

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue

7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: website for technical analysis ? on: November 24, 2017, 09:53:23 PM
I find that a great option for newbies is to find a trusted analyzer on Steemit.com (you can make an account an earn some $ while you are at it  Wink). Many people post technical analyses on Steemit and all you have to do is look at their last posts and see if their predictions came true (if they did, then they are likely a trustworthy source). On top of this, you can also use Bittrex's charts, which are free, to do your own analyses.

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue
8  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: minimum amount to start trading? on: November 24, 2017, 08:59:49 PM
The good thing with most Crypto exchanges (like Bittrex) is that the fee which they charge is in the form of a percentage (Bittrex charges 0.25% per trade). This means that you can begin to trade with as little coin as you want! however, you must take into consideration the minimum trade value of the exchange (Bittrex requires a minimum trade value of 50K Satoshi).

BTW: I use Bittrex as the example because it is the exchange that I use and the exchange that I recommend you to use.

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue

YES! Haha I love looking at these old posts and reflecting on my stupidity for not investing ALL of my money into Cryptos and just HODLing  Cry.

*sigh* the missed profit...

Haha, ETH is BOOMING right now! But don't worry, it is just catching up with BTC and it still has a long way to rise... after-all, they still have yet to implement their POS system  Wink.

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue
11  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: profit amount? on: November 24, 2017, 08:37:48 PM
As you would expect, my daily profit changes daily  Wink. However, I try to leverage/hedge my trades so that I profit a minimum of .5%-1% per trade group.

Good luck and remember that sometimes you may have to stop and cut your loses (DO NOT BE STUBBORN)! Tongue
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: It’s very easy to trade Bitcoin on: November 23, 2017, 06:21:27 PM
Well, it is very easy to trade Bitcoin, but is MUCH easier to HODL Bitcoin. It is easy to trade because it is constantly reaching new highs so no matter where you buy it, you can just wait and sell it higher. On the other hand, if you buy it at a good price and HODL for like a year or two, then you could sell for a whole lot more than you bought it for (rather than the few % you gain from trading).

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue
13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Selling your mined btc on: November 19, 2017, 07:29:55 PM
For an easy-to-use, low-commission, and trusted way, then I recommend Gdax. Gdax is Coinbase's peer-to-peer brokerage where you can trade your BTC for USD (with another person). Gdax pushes A LOT of volume and if you just place a market order, your order will be processed immediately.

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue

This seems like a good program. It has a use: it makes it easier to calculate your profits. It is fairly user friendly and doesn't have much of a learning curve. I didn't know I needed one of these until I have one, I will ACTUALLY be using this!  Grin Thank you!

PS: Its not a virus  Wink

15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing on ICOS is good or bad ? on: November 14, 2017, 11:50:56 PM
From not only my experience, but also the experience of others: Investing in ICOs can be good or bad. It all depends on your ability to recognize a good ICO (this skill can be easily developed). When investing in ICOs, you have to be comfortable with the fact that you will lose sometimes. However, with some practice and A LOT of researching ICOs, there is much money to be made (One of my friends made over 600% from ONE ICO)!

16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Can I mining ethereum with Raspberry Pi 3? on: November 14, 2017, 06:31:01 PM
Well, you COULD mine on a Raspberry Pi 3, but it would be HIGHLY ineffective and very slow.

If you get a GPU, like you said, then I think it may work (providing the Raspberry Pi’s CPU can handle running the mining algorithm- which it can). It would probably be a very effective mining rig because the Raspberry Pi does not use much power and it is quite cheap.

Good luck and tell me if you try it because i am interested in the results! Tongue
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Building a 600 CORES - Supercomputer to mine VeriumReserve on: November 14, 2017, 02:22:50 AM
How many hash are you expecting from this BEAST of a system? I assume you have done your homework and it won't overwhelm the network (give the network WAY too much hash than it needs- which will SIGNIFICANTLY decrease the ROI of all miners on the network). A coin this small is very easy to overwhelm and could cause some terrible effects to the efficiency of the network until everything stabilizes.

Good luck! Tongue
18  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Need help about btc to bch transfer... on: November 14, 2017, 02:10:29 AM
I menaged to retrieve my coins. Thank you all for your answers. This made me to learn a lot of things I didn't know. Case is closed Wink

I am very glad your BTC was returned to you. I have seen people transfer one coin to an address of another coin and never get their coins back (I don't know where they go...). You should share the method which you used to retrieve your BTC back from the unconfirmed transaction so others who have this problem can solve it as well.

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue
19  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: SimpleFX.com SCAM they took 0.45 btc on: November 13, 2017, 09:58:36 PM
Did you try withdrawing your funds in a currency like BTC? They mention Bitcoin Cash over and over like it only an issue with BCC. Did you contact their support yet?

Good luck and I hope your problem gets resolved! Sad
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tether pumping BTC on: November 13, 2017, 09:37:10 PM
What is wrong with tether ? It's a good way to allo pseudo-fiat trading for altcoin exchange which doesn't have the right too. Every Tether is backed by USB and you can withdrawal your tether easier than fiat. It's a respond to a real need. You can't be a cryptotrader with a lot of movement in your bank account. Tether allow you to do this.
Maybe i don't get it. Are you serious when you have said that every Tether is backed by USD?

Sort of, every tether is not literally backed by paper USD, but the currency is inflated and deflated so that each tether is worth $1. This is done by pinning the amount of total tether to its market cap in USD. For example, if the market cap of tether rises from $15 to $20, then the total amount of tether will increase from 15 coins to 20 coins (making each coin worth $1). In short, the price of tether will always be $1 (as long as the devs stay on-top of things).

Good luck and stay safe! Tongue
