Fear it is usual thing for human being. Especially when you are not an expert in crypto.

In a side not i've compiled and created the latest client and checkpointed it. WIll be released on the official site as soon as weve updated it.

There are hundreds of altcoins on the market and people spread their investments through all of them while bitcoin is alone and people are doing investments only on bitcoin so that the prices maintains at a high value.

We all have private keys but that can only be stolen if someone literally steals the file or either you gave it with the passphrase.

So many people and countries are beginning to realise the importance and essence of cryptocurrency in our day to day life. There are good values attached to nicer projects.

Fears of banks is pretty obvious they have always been scared and know the implication of that for me. Come to think of it, my bank has been giving me some good interest on my savings recently, which has not really been something I have seen much from the past, and also, I keep getting the message of doing international transactions and getting some benefits. It seems they are really beginning to see how the power is leaving their hands.

Once your rank improves you can take part in some bounties and learn more. Best to spend your time learning and then you can get involved in the scene. People can smell out someone who is selling them a poor ICO.

 Even if Aplle is going to use crypto system, I think the company will create its own blockhain system without having to use another bitcoin or altcoin.

Every BTC buyer has two purposes. First, they invest in bitcoins when they are low priced and keep them for a long time.

If you look back bitcoin was developed after the great economic depression which is caused by the incompetency of the higher hierarchy of the financial sector and they literally gambled with everyones wealth,so in my opinion it is developed to have a control over our asset than a third party.

Bitcoin is making world go crazy  because bitcoin is looking forward  to seeing there follower a great people in life.

I think they have long been on the edge of profit and cost. Soon this update will be made and I think many move their production capacities into other currencies.
I don't think that this is due to the increase in demand.

I tried putting BTC into my ripple wallet using weexchange.com, but I need to link a merchant, so I need to get a token somehow... any ideas?

I wonder how many of the new investors that came in over the last couple of months even know it happened?

Because many altcoins will lose its value year by year so be picky while picking your altcoin.

Even most of the altcoins taking the moment on this bull run . Bitcoin fork coins like BCH, Btp, btd now btg also starting pumping.  Ethereum is following the bitcoin momentum. Overall it’s good sign of next milestone hope market will break previous record 800+ billion.

Investing in altcoins maybe a good idea if you understand the potential impact of alts.

I've been following Dogecoin 3 months now and that coin barely touch a penny. It is stable you think because the price isn't roller-coaster.

I agree with you about participating in bounty more profitable than to follow the less favourable. do not waste your time, immediately join the bounty and enjoy the benefits. I hope you are successful with bounty.

although bitcoin is fluctuating but its regulation can be trusted. while forex I think too slow and less steady.
