1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 4 Signs and Symptoms That You’re Suffering From Bitcoin Addiction on: October 30, 2018, 10:00:44 PM
Let’s face it ladies and gentlemen, we all love Bitcoin right? However, we notice ourselves that every single day, we have our own habits in our daily lives. However, it all changed when we expose ourselves too much in Bitcoin and in the world of cryptocurrency.

Without further ado, I will share to you the common “signs and symptoms” that you are suffering from Bitcoin addiction:

1. Your Google Chrome/Firefox/Safari browser always have a tab reserved for CoinMarketCap

Hahaha!! I am so, so, so guilty of this one! When I was working or browsing with some stuff, I noticed that CoinMarketCap tab is present for most of the time. You know why? It is because the volatility of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are so high, in which the price could change drastically whether if moons or dips.

I don’t know about you guys, though. Unless if you are a Bitcoin day trader, you would always reserve a tab for CoinMarketCap.

2. You are not excited in conversations unless if it’s about Bitcoin, blockchain, etc.

Ever since I engaged myself into cryptocurrency, I started to become passionate with it. However, I started to notice that when my family and friends are talking about their interests, I’m starting to get bored and may only socialize a little with them. However, when someone is mentioning about Bitcoin, blockchain, etc., my excitement level increases to talk more about that.

I know you guys are feeling the same thing, but not all, it depends.

3. You are excited when you hear the word “moon”

Of course, of course, of course!!! I love it when I hear that word “moon” because it is all about profiting from my Bitcoin investment. Not only Bitcoin though, but other coins and tokens as well that I am engaging with.

Every time I hear it, it’s like I cannot wait to check the charts once again. How about you guys?

4. Checking the price and charts is the first thing to do when you wake up and before you sleep


I am super, super, super guilty of this! I usually sleep around 2 AM to 3 AM, and before I sleep and turning off my Macbook Air, I check the price first. And when I wake up, I opened it and check CoinMarketCap immediately. Lol

I just don’t know if you guys are having the same habit as me, but it is what it is when we are having too much exposure with Bitcoin, blockchain, etc.

Are you suffering from Bitcoin addiction? Well then, welcome to the club! Wink

Will in my own there are different sign of becoming an bitcoin addiction first are  lack of sleeping,because once a person become a bitcoin addicted its always monitored his asset or what happen daily the market chart,second  always irritiated when something dump happen in crypto world,thirds every minutes they alwaus panic and always thinking what happen to his investment  and lastly person become addicted in bitcoin become greedy,because he always want a positive outcome of his investment.
2  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Everyone loses money when the market is down right? on: October 28, 2018, 09:42:11 PM
So with how much bitcoin and all the altcoins are down, is it even possible for any trader to make any money?  Example let say this.  You buy btc at a very low price due to these dips.  Now you could either keep btc or buy altcoins with it.  Now the market goes down every single day.  First off, does anyone know if btc or any altcoins ever have a day where the prices drop every single hour?  Or is that impossible?


Anyways, with how much all the coins are dropping, is it even possible for any trader to make money on days or weeks like this?  Im thinking its only possible if they make sure they sell it at the right hour and minute etc in order to profit.  But of course if they are down almost all day, how is it even possible for anyone to make any money?  Sure when the market goes back up in a while, and the price gets higher than they bought it at and now they sell, the profit.  However, the same ppl who hold the coins will profit as well.


Because doesn't it seem like there is no skill involved at all it seems?  Because if the market is down for a long time, what percentage of traders are even making any money when the market is down?  Of course if you got a coin at like 10 cents a long time ago and then it went to 5 dollars... and now because of this.. its now down to say 1 dollar, well you are still up money if you sell it now.  But the same ppl who got this coin probably got it at over 3 dollars and lost a huge percentage of its value.


So is it true almost everyone loses money when the market is down?  And almost everyone makes money when the market is up?  Because if btc goes up, the alts follow.  BTC drops, everything follows.  Its like there is zero skill at all almost.   Such that yes when it goes up, some altcoins might go up higher than others.  Also why do certain very good altcoins drop when btc drop if that project is very good etc?  Yes i know you need btc to get that coin and vice versa but its like its either everyone wins or everyone loses.


So right now market is down a lot especially for those who bought not that long ago.  So where is the skill here?  Its basically when to sell and when to buy right?  However, when market is down like this, who is damn making any money?  Because isn't almost everyone losing money?  The only ppl that i could see that likes this huge dip are those that have usd/usdt ready and picking when to buy.  Of course they could have waited till btc was 8k and thought great i buy now or buy alts and each of these already lost a lot already.


Who is making any money now when the market is down?  The ppl who are selling?  Surely not since the price they sell now is much less than before.  Also just curious but does this apply to stocks and forex trading as well?  I know that well stock market goes up, doesn't almost all the stocks all go up it seems?  The same can be said of forex or am i wrong here?  I only know forex is money trading with different currencies etc.  Because when you look at other things like poker or sportsbetting... someone is winning and someone is losing.  Also to anyone that bets sports or knows about sports, you might hear how all the wise guys are losing money.  Wise guys are sophisticated sharp bettors that are much smarter than your average joe.   That average joe most likely bets very square picks... meaning like obvious public teams etc.  However, the thing is the public does win.  And when they do that, sportsbook would lose money.  But usually they get it back and the average joe loses it back betting very public plays and the sophisticated bettors aka sharps win again.  However, i heard of sharps having really bad seasons etc.



So based on that, doesn't it seem like crypto trading is basically everyone wins or everyone loses?  Because in sportsbetting, yes the house does win and they house could also have a losing streak.  But eventually they win back the average joes money.  But if the average joe gets lucky and goes on a huge run whether betting favorites or underdogs or whatnot, its possible for him to win for a long time or lose for a long time.  Also let say you have a few players who are sharp sportsbettors and a few average joes.  Well if the sharp guys are winning, most likely the average joes are losing.  If the sharp guys are losing, average joes are most likely winning.  I say this because they usually play opposite plays most of the time.  But no matter what, someone has to win.  Whether its the sportsbook or the bettor.  Also in sportsbetting, there is something called live betting where its like trading.  Basically you can bet on either side while the game is going on when odds change always etc.  But when you live bet, if one player bets this team while another player bets another team... remember each of these players are betting against the sportsbook, one player will win... the other loses.  Thus that is where the skill comes in.  So does anyone here feel like the market dictating winning or losing is just stupid?  I mean if market is down, who is making any money?  Its like ppl say when there is a bull market, everyone thinks they are a genius.  Well if its a bull market, the only thing you have to think about is okay i will buy btc but should i exchange it for altcoin or not and which one.



Anyone here have thoughts or opinions on this?  I got excited about cryptocurrency and trading and wanted to do it.  But now when i look at it, its basically look at the market.  There doesn't seem to be any skill in it.  Can anyone here correct me with any of my statements especially if i made any especially in sportsbetting?  Thanks.


yeah diffinetly thats true thats everythings turns to looses money when market is down or everythings are still struggle on gaining a good profit,because its a boomerang to the people or investor into this world of crypto now,otherwise doing investment trading there are times you can gain better,but most probably now 95% are loosing.
3  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell us about your experience on: October 28, 2018, 12:13:24 PM
Friends  Wink
I want to share your experience with you.
Since the first time I got to know cryptocurrency I initially did not believe that cryptocurrency can help my economy, after I did it in various ways to work, finally now I can meet the economic needs of my family.

On the other hand I also read articles that they can also provide loans to help others.

And in this forum there are also people who provide ways to help their economy.

Quote
It can surely help the world economy in the following ways;
* Increase job opportunities as people can work from home and get paid in BTC which will benefit both the employer and the employee.
* Provide flexibility in online payments.
* Eliminate the need for exchanging fiat money as BTC can be used worldwide.
* Can benefit e-commerce websites in various ways.
These are just a few ways BTC can help to grow the world economy and I am sure there would be plenty much other ways which I can't think of right now.

Now, what about your experience? let's share experiences.
May you also succeed with cryptocurrency  Smiley


Every people have an different ideas and experience about cryptocurriencies and the first time we encounter about  crypto we have different impression and expectation about this,otherwise in my own the first time i've encounter this i've been a victim of the scamming investment system thats why i feel discourage,but later on i learned thats theres so many ways to enter the world of crypto investment and how to identify the legit and the fraud using the crypto.
4  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think there's another way to pay in the future? on: October 28, 2018, 08:09:53 AM
Im thinking like an micro chip implanted in our body. This system is not out of the picture because how we discover things every year, it is not impossible that in the future this things may happen and it will boom like btc.
This is a far vision,and i thinks theres a possible in the future thats its can be done,otherwise this is a future vision if this would be implemented soon,but if this would happen thats like a micro chip implanted in our body ,its become in human and not civilized ways and people would againts this kind of system.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investment or free? on: October 26, 2018, 03:04:56 PM
I see the crypto market growing more and more with the appearance of more and more coin and projects. Every day there are dozens to hundreds of new projects being established. Most of them aim to call for investment to develop the project but besides that many projects do not call for capital but only distribute their token free through Airdrop programs and bounty. This leads to competition and attracts different users. Do you think free or investment projects will last longer?


Will,i thinks every people have a opinion about those free token or investment project,thats would last longer ,some say yes but in my own i could say thats its not works longer because,this kind of project have no product and no marketable object to sell,only they created a token as part of there project developed.
6  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Prediction : Dream or real ? on: October 26, 2018, 06:35:14 AM
I dont know did you watch or not, Cliff High published a video on Youtube where he said that Bitcoin will reach 64k price till mid April 2018. I am not sure if it is possible or not but in my opinion price makers wont let the Chinese investors to buy bitcoin such a cheap price like 7k-8k USD. I am really curious what people on here think about that ?

Mostly people now didn't believe the prediction become real because its only outcomes of what the mind coming out of the person,sometimes its become true and sometimes are not,thats why people mostly believe in the reality happen in the market that to make a prediction of what the outcomes which should happen in the future.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Is this the correct time to purchase bitcoins and al-crypto? on: October 26, 2018, 02:30:08 AM
Very few of us have seen first rise and nose-dive of bitcoin. Then came the tremendous growth report of bitcoin which forced the world to take bitcoin and alt-coin seriously. This tremendous growth soon started to get correctly. That is from 16000 USD to ~6200 USD correction has happened so far. As as of now the prices have remained stable about 6000 USD.

Do you think this the better time to go for bitcoin purchase spree again? As from the bitcoin price history bitcoin has shown tendency to spike periodically.
Considering the bitcoin  novelty has worn off across the glob, Now there is sufficient awareness about the bitcoin and crypto. what could be the driving factors If yes then what could be the driving factors for the growth? As previous factors may be less significant this time.


People or investor have an different opinion about this situation,some say's its better now to buy more crypto coins and hold it and wait for the bullish moment to sell,because when you buy now the price is lower and you can buy more crypto coins,while in the other terms  some say's this is not worthwhile to buy because everyday the market continue into bloodish happen.
8  Other / Archival / Re: No more fake news on: October 25, 2018, 02:40:41 PM

actually fake news are everywhere especialy in social media,otherwise we can control it to not trust easily in coming feed news,especially in coming crypto news,therefore in order to not become a victim of those hoax news we must research first if its legit news or not,and we must always thinks positive about cryptocurrency.
9  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What's your favorite exchange? on: October 24, 2018, 01:50:51 AM
There are many exchanges out there. Which one do you use and why?
Thanks!

Will people have a different favorite exchange,but in my own i would probably refer to bancor because its easy to create an account,and easily to understand there processing of exchange trading,and low processing fee,when you preferering an exchange trading of your crypto coins into fiat currency,therefore i most favorable to making a transaction in bancor exchange.
10  Economy / Economics / Re: Please, we should not totally eliminate fiat currency on: October 22, 2018, 02:18:51 AM
From what I have seen so far in this forum and other crypto platforms, most of us want fiat eliminated. But let us not forget that there are still situations whereby we can't use crypto except fiat like in rural places without computers or even internet facilities.


Definetly thats true,for us now we should not totally eliminate the fiat currency and even in the future we could not implement fully a cashless society all over the worlds,because not all country should aware this crypto technology,because there are some country who belong into the thirds poorest thats have no internet connection and computers and even the people become wonder what kind of oppurtunity this crypto and they need to be educate.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best source to find better ICOs? on: October 21, 2018, 01:39:08 AM
i wonder there is a better source to find about ICOs that will give 3x ,5x profit in short term.lot of ICOs in these days are scams or don't have real working product.and also they go below ICO price after list in exchanges.but i want to invest on real ICOs that have working product and give me 3x,4x back for my investment


Mostly in my own idea in finding a better resources of ICO i prefered to know the bounty manager credibility who are good reputation in handling ICO project thats whyi found its first if they are legit and good comunicator to its members or investor to the said project,so that we can assure that everyrhings that we doing about those new development project are legit,and thats why i prefered mostly to the amazix campaign.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What kind of coin are you waiting for on the pump? on: October 21, 2018, 12:26:33 AM
which do you think should grow in the near future?
I'm in the near future on the pamp crypto Greenmed (GRMD) has long been at the bottom, engaged in the sufficiency of marijuana in the united states, in principle, in some conferences in the United States had not a bad success
definetly i've waited the bitcoin and etherium would going pump back someday and this two crypto coins that i've been waiting for to bullish in the market because i believe that once this two major coins would pump in the market everythings around in the crypto coins would be affected and grow,because the bitcoin and ethereum are the mainstream of all crypto resources.
13  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the price of bitcoin rapidly going down on: October 19, 2018, 01:33:56 PM
The news in term of development are actually decent, with LN getting closer to a release, so I think this is just temporary. Smiley


Theres so many factors why the bitcoin still rapidly going because of so many struggle that we encounter simultaneously into the world of crypto and one of the factor of that are the continously bloodish situation in the  market because of the crypto price dump,thats why some of the investor are afraid of this FUMO and maybe others  are transfer to another kind of investment.
14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What problems cryptocurrency will face in the near future? on: October 19, 2018, 11:40:01 AM
Specifically in the next 5 years, what do you think will be the greatest challenge or problem that the crypto market will face, and how do you think the market will overcome this problem? I also wonder if AI can help crypto trading safer and free from hacking and scamming?


Actually the main reason thats would been problem of crypto since from the beginning until beyond or go to five years from now are the adaptation to the different country on this kind of digital investment,because not at all country can adapt this kind of technology,because there are country that belong into the third poor world country thats not capable into this cryptocurrency investment system.
15  Other / Archival / Re: Do you think the markets will collapse on: October 18, 2018, 09:57:52 PM
Collapse definition: Market Cap less than 150 Billion

Yes or No

I say YES

I didn’t want to say yes but there is not much light in the tunnel.





When we tell the crypto market would collapsed if everythings would become ruined,and everythings in the market turns down,but in the case of cryptocurrency investment everythings is fine and only difficulties thats we face now are the bearish market,but crypto is still continue to moving forward on,and continue to recover to maintain its flexibility so for me its is a big No that crypto would collapse its movement.
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How can get information of pump coins? on: October 18, 2018, 06:09:21 AM
Hello Bitcoin talk.
      I am member of thid forum from last one year and i am doing trading too. Most of time i did only long term trading and now i want to learn short time trading. So can you tell me how can i get information about any coin that will be pump in next few hours?

Mostly of this community in the world of cryptocurrencency have so many groups,thats can helps us to give information about the coin thats pumps in the new few hours,otherwise i did not depend on this kind of group,because i've created my own analysis by always monitoring the coin market caps data chart,and then my decision depends on this data spike chart.
17  Economy / Economics / Re: Are fiat currencies necessary in the world? on: October 18, 2018, 02:39:14 AM
in the future, will there really be a need for fiat currency? Government can collect taxes in crypto, determine how to allocate it, and spend it in crypto. Ppl can receive salaries and do all commerce using crypto. Loans can be done in crypto. Fundraising can be in crypto. Sure, problems have to be worked out in terms of scalability, does it have to be completely decentralized, etc, the value has to become more stable. But theoretically, is there any reason to have fiat in the future?

It has been established that governments can now do taxation without representation by printing more money (which is a tax on everyone holding the currency), instead of trying to get a bill passed that allows it to increase the tax rate. With crypto this would be no more. All increased taxation would have to pass a vote.

From an economic standpoint, the idea that a country can stimulate its economy by adjusting interest rates is tenuous. There is just as strong an argument that lowering interest rates has caused speculation and bubbles, with calamitous results. In a crypto market economy, capital will flow from where it is needed less to where it is needed more.


I could definetly say yes, that fiat currency are very important into this world because everythings you want to buy or needs of life  fiat are always exist in order to provide everything what we needs,otherwise crypto is an alternate of paper money  into this modern technology,in order to create a cashless society  and make the billing transaction easier,but as of now thats not all country are using of this,fiat currency are best option that we needed.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can you invest in bitcoin without being scammed? on: October 17, 2018, 12:17:40 PM
How can you invest in bitcoin without being scammed? There are people using very fine techniques like selling bitcoin cash in name of bitcoins using confusing websites name. How to be safe from such scams ?

when in terms of buying bitcoin you must prefer to buy on those legit exchange market sites in order thats you could not become a victim of fraud or phishing,so therefore dont trust those people who offer to sell you a bitcoin or some phishing site's convince you to put on some capital on there site's because its already a scam and one example of this scam site are the ethtrade trading site's and im the one who become a victim of those fake ethtrade.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: who is responsible for the scam project on: October 17, 2018, 11:06:20 AM
Who is responsible for fraud projects. doesn't that cause a lot of losses and what punishment is worth.

Will in my own thought the main responsible for the fraud project are the bounty manager because they are the one capable to know and to filter the project  if its a fraud or legit,otherwise we also as a bounty hunters have an obligation to aware,before we participate the new development project ,we must research and identify so that we could not undergo to scam project.

Actualy not all prediction are accurate and mostly all of them are failed,otherwise there are times thats a predictions become true and realibilty,thats why people become aware and panic when they heard about bad news happen in the price value of crypto in the market,therefore bitcoin prediction sometimes we could assure is only a part of the dream or vision in the future.
