1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The market is back green, are these signs of a bull run? on: November 30, 2018, 11:30:30 AM
forget about bitcoin which fell to the value of $ 4,570.01 some time ago and etherum fell to a value of $ 136.14. see the current market, how the market is again marked green, although the increase is not significant. Will a bull run happen soon? not necessarily. but at least this is a sign for us to always believe in crypto that prices will not always be red, there must be a chance for green again.


it is still too early to conclude, especially there are no strong guidelines for bullrun, this month is not over and next month is the end of the year. we still leave one month and anything can happen. but I hope the market really grows.
I think the next month will bring some good news for the market as now many positive things are going to happen for the market. Many bigger exchanges are going to list the coin and that will wake up the bulls to enter the market with full boost.

If you just want to keep investing on the cryptos every month without cashing out in the near future then it will be the bitcoin for your preference or you can invest on the altcoins and do short term trading with it to make your profits in small intervals but it needs your effort also.
Apart from that anyone can also try staking cryptocurrencies and get dual benefits as the price appreciates. You can also try using the money to buy cryptocurrencies like NEO, KuCoin and the rest of them that pays you dividends. There are a lot of them but no need to go further cause you can easily find them. Then apart from all these things, some people, especially those that don’t want to invest money would prefer to do micro tasking.

Is cryptocurrency dead? As long as cryptocurrencies exist, there will always be platforms to exchange/trade crypto. If you’re referring to start-ups exchanges, they may be facing serious challenges which maybe threatening to their existence. One of the problems the cryptospace is facing is copy and paste and repetition of projects with different names, innovation and creativity is fading out in the space.

Let us compare the older cryptocurrency exchange platforms like (Coinbase, Bitfinex, Bitmex, Kraken, Gemini, Poloniex, Bittrex, Gate.io, and Huobi) to the new ones like (Bitforex, Indodax, Coinbe , Hotbit , DigiFinex). Why are the new crypto exchange platforms struggling to hit the lime light?. Binance is about a year old and has made much impact in the cryptospace, why can’t other cryptocurrency exchange start-ups follow suit?

1. Lack of funds
2. The market has already been saturated
3. No original ideas

The big exchange platforms are gaining more grounds everywhere, this making the space more competitive. Nevertheless, some start-ups are really making much sense and are impacting immensely to the blockchain and cryptocurrency space. For any startup to pave through the crowd, it's idea and technology must be very solid.

One of the start-ups to look out for is BLOCKCHAIN BOARD OF DERIVATIVES, the platform combines both centralized and decentralized features of Blockchain to stay aloof the crowd in the space. This is a all-in-one trading platform, that is going to be welcomed when it is launched.


At BBOD users control the destiny of their own funds. BBOD runs a non-custodial smart contract wallet system where all account balances are held by a decentralised smart contract on the Ethereum blockchain. Centralised entities are too often hacked, BBOD adopts hybrid approach to decentralised safety combined with a centralised trading engine ensures the security of your funds whilst maintaining blazing fast transactions speeds, thereby giving the platform an edge over other exchange start-ups.

This is not the only Crypto exchange that is making impact, there are several others who make making the revolution worthwhile, so Crypto exchanges are far from dead.
It’s a normal thing for new exchanges to face difficult times, but with time they will always get better if they are legit, cause the scammers will always drop out with what they have gotten from investors. But this doesn’t mean that it is over for every exchanger in the crypto market, cause a lot of them are doing just fine, especially the ones that have been around for long. And I think new exchangers only faces challenges if they didn’t plan very well before starting.
4  Economy / Exchanges / Re: what are the things to consider when looking for a good exchange? on: November 30, 2018, 09:08:23 AM
I am a trader or at least that is how i see myself. I trade on binance, okex, idex, mercatox, bittrex, houbi and some other exchange. Lately i notice a lot of new crypto exchange popping here and there. And as much as i know and safe guard my password and secure my account with 2fa, I am still curious of the factors other traders consider when they are signing up on a new exchange. Would love to know some of your key factors so i might look into those too.
Reputation and security are always on top of the list of what to check out for when you’re choosing an exchange. Any exchange with no good reputation (or should I say without much good reputation) shouldn’t be considered. Why going for exchanges with reputation is because you will be rest assured that they are safe. Cryptocurrency market is not a place to mess around cause there are lots of scammers, any single mistake and you will be in their trap.
5  Economy / Speculation / Re: FRUSTRATED AT THE MARKET. on: November 30, 2018, 08:00:56 AM
Honestly. this is from a gentle soul that believed and hope the crypto market will get better. I must be hedonistic regards this CRYPTO of a thing. the fact is that we have witness huge Reds Colors in the Market More than the Greens Signs. these days we do have long days of Red trends more than the green trends. it is getting frustrating. i wonder if there could be crypto addicts. Even if we are not expecting the green days so Quick. Let their be BALANCE in this market.
Else we might wake up one day and Move back to square One.
Imagine Loosing out 7.5 billions USD over night. it quite outrageous.
It didn’t just happen, there are reasons for all that which I believe a lot of people might have explained. If you’re not okay with it and you think you might lose money, then you should withdraw your funds or maybe use them for USDT or TUSD. After you can buy back when the market starts to go up again.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin from the list? on: November 30, 2018, 06:53:17 AM
Hi All,

The current bearish market is allowing me to accumulate as much as can I afford.

I want to put in some money into 1 of the following coins but not sure which one will likely give me the most gains judging from where the coins have fallen from:

$300 into either:

1) Waves
2) Neo
3) Eth
4) Dash
5) Monero


I am buying bitcoin atm too. Which one would you recommend and why ?

Thank you

Obviously, none of the above.
I think in that list eth is a good option for the investment right now. Because that coin is oversold and it will have a recovery in the coming future which will be much bigger profit for the investors who will invest in the current price. The remaining are also better coins but eth stands bigger than the remaining.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is happening to cryptocurrency?! on: November 30, 2018, 05:55:45 AM
what happened to cryptocurrency? nothing, just an ordinary routine. price fluctuations are common in cryptocurrency except that maybe the current decline is too much Grin
I hope that the current decline will be the last decline in the price of Bitcoin and the coming time will give a great fortune to the value of Bitcoin and again we will see a golden era in the Bitcoin and all other altcoins. I am sure that from the coming year we will see a great year like the year of 2017.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HOPE FOR SHIT COIN on: November 30, 2018, 05:22:18 AM
Hello

Please i want make a quick inquire please. can there be any possible hope a shit coin to come back alive. i participated on an ICO that are responsible for reinventing dead coins. the project is known as coin janitor. they believed that there are tokens that are good but was closed down due some factors like market dump or no finance which lead to the demise of the token.
Could there be any means by which a dead coin can be resurrected again ?

The bear market killed most crypto, especially dead coins. It's too rare for dead coins to have a value again in the market, not unless pump and dump group pumps a certain coin for profit.
If you are talking to give them life in the current market then not even a pump and dump group can give a life to these coins. They will have to wait for the market to boost like it was in the month of December of the previous year (2017). As I saw in the previous year that even those coins got some value the developers of which left it.
9  Economy / Speculation / Re: Short term forecast on: November 29, 2018, 04:58:49 AM
After a long period of decline in Bitcoin, I would like to ask, if there is an increase of more than 5% next week, what is the strategy behind it?
I think there is no point of price going up right now. The Bakkt got delayed and until 29th of december SEC doesn't need to tell what they think about this which would probably only affect the price during the early days of 2019. So in the shortest term, 2018 will probably end like this unless some major stuff happen. Now don't forget that no one really knows what will happen in bitcoin world because it is always a shock when something new happens but the main point is this ; either we will stay like this if nothing changes, or someone will come up with some new huge thing and we will start making money. That's the whole gist of it to be honest. There are not a lot of bells and whistles on bitcoin news, whenever something huge happens either going up or down, it is quite easily explainable.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Credits (CS) partners with Lenovo - moon? on: September 08, 2018, 10:51:43 AM
I see that Credits is already having an increase in price of 12% since yesterday, but i don't think that it will moon just because of a partnership. The project needs to show more results before it can increase more in price.

This is a good point, I looked in to it a little after seeing this because a Lenovo partnership is no small partner. That's one of the best partners any cryptocurrency has managed and should be enough to draw some attention. I see that soon they will be showcasing some of their blockchains potential with speeds in excess of 200k TPS on offer. That blows all of the competition out of the park.
Normally, most of the altcoins had a good move yesterday in the hope that the market would be a favorable condition for the alts to grow but as it is, it seems the market is absolutely not ready yet for such movement until we can clearly see the extent to which bitcoin wants to move. It is not a bad thing for Credits team, considering that such partnership is a big move and would really bring about some impact for its usage over time, but I really would not expect that much in the short term for market growth because of that.
In the past I have seen many altcoin projects had made tie up with big companies but in long term they are not capitalizing anything. Paying some big money to Lenovo and making use of that brand for promoting their coins/token is the thing is going on now a days. Still, it is another good effort from credit team but I am not ready to invest with any one including this credits.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Really! Where is the fun at? on: August 08, 2018, 10:39:45 AM
There are some time that we really experience bored in gambling OP because if you already know or you can really predict what can happen of course you will feel bored so that's why you ask where is the fun and if you already repeat the gambling again in again,Moreover you ask also that we really want to win for profit so for me that's the exciting and i don't really feel bored or negative about gambling because we can do it to relax our mind even risky then no one force you in that so just leave if you really don't like
This is just like you are going to cinema to watch some movie but you already know you have already seen that movie. Would there be some charm or enjoyment? I am sure it wouldn’t be like this. Then how can you even think of such big and foolish ideas that might it be changed when you are gambling. You might be seeing things in bad times when you go into it voluntarily.
Big different is there in watching movie and playing gambling, in gambling every time you have expectation of making money from gambling which make it more attracted and having good fun there. I think most of the people are there to play gambling again and again because for every time they have hope a one day they will become succeeded to make a big money from gambling.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: Banking is Dead… Long live Blockchain Banking! on: August 08, 2018, 10:05:21 AM
Banks can not afford increasing expenditure of the old technology anymore they will have to adapt to the change.

Talking about technology and banking, Blockchain, will disrupt the financial domain with certainty. Much has been discussed, debated and discussed about this distributed ledger, both online and offline. So this innovative technology does not require a special introduction at this time. Calling it 'annoying' is a disparaging statement. To understand what a blockchain is, look at bitcoin or cryptocurrency. It has achieved many 'never heard' scenarios in the financial domain. Since technology has been introduced in the banking world, experts are always struggling to create safe and secure means of transactions. A person must go through a third party application or an intermediary or regulatory body to transfer money. But here is the digital currency - completely unfocused - and has broken all conventional banking laws. Today, a person can send money to anyone in the world immediately without having to go through the hassle of what I experienced. It has happened in many parts of the world. You can transfer money via WeChat, Whatsapp, and even Facebook Messenger right now.

Believe it or not, blockchain is a breakthrough technology that can be applied to your domain-name. From agriculture, aviation to supply chains, finance, and the food industry, blockchains are everywhere.

A lot of organizations around the world are already experimenting with this technology. Major financial organizations such as the SBI Holdings, Goldman Sachs and Citi group have already invested in blockchain. Back home, the State Bank of India (SBI) has grand plans in place to use blockchain for a number of processes, including the KYC system. South Indian Bank seamlessly carried out an international transaction using this technology. ICICI, YES Bank, Bank of Baroda, Axis Bank and Kotak Mahindra are some of the few banks that have hopped on to the blockchain bandwagon. While some banks are experimenting with this digital ledger and achieving impressive results, some financial institutions are gearing up to reform and redefine huge chunks of their banking processes. Shocked Shocked

Good for them and their customers!

As far as my bank is concerned, I recall reading this article which showed that out of Fortune500 in last 50 years, 84% of them are dead today. In the next 10 years, I am happy to predict just a few banks will remain in Fortune 500. Most financial institutions will have either absorbed blockchain tightly OR they will be gone.

There are banks that integrates this technology to their services and it seems that it will become more powerful than any other financial system had built. They can lower their service charge without losing income and attracts more customer.
Bitcoin can helps you to increase your holding coins in short time and include low fee where banks takes some months to give you benefits and applied charges when you're sending your money.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin is the new Bitcoin on: August 08, 2018, 07:56:43 AM
Why do i think Dogecoin can defeat BTC? it is not possible and nonsense with an altcoin that have no value at all and no use in real life, even until today, dogecoin is seem like a joke of developers to the world, created Dogecoin and left on its own, i totally disagree with the idea Dogecoin can be the next altcoin can replace BTC.
Talk about other crypto currency they're still below the bitcoins they even can't reach up to bitcoin's price so how doge coins do it in just short time.
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ONLINE GAMBLING WILL BE BANNED IN THE PHILIPPINES on: August 08, 2018, 06:51:42 AM
I don't think there is a mere possibility that this could happen, people mainly uses gambling not only for their own basic needs or wants, it also plays a big part in the economy, and if online gambling will be banned, then I think the Philippines will be having big problems here, especially for a third world country, gambling plays a big part whether it is online or not, bitcoin or fiat, it is still heavily relied on.
I also do not think that it is so easy to happen, as  online gambling is still not banned in such countries where gambling is already an illegal activities then how can it be possible in Philippine I do not think that they can become succeeded in banning online gambling.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Investment in Bitcoin vs Investment in Education? on: August 06, 2018, 11:29:12 AM
Both are good investments, but I just want to emphasize that education is something that is so valuable to everyone and no amount of money can compare to that, it is not just your ticket to get a job but it is something that your life will depend on, your goals, your dreams, also the honor and pride it can give your parents. I am not saying that it is the only way for people to learn, there are still a lot of things about life that you need to learn outside school but then at least you already have the foundation.

Exactly. And in these days of glory-seeking, a lot of education is just for honor and virtue rather than the information itself. If you look close enough at these "gentlemen clubs" like Harvard, Oxford, Yale, etc. you can see that they mostly are a circle of self-serving narcissists who think that they have superior knowledge and therefore are living in a bubble. What really gets me is how they have been blaming "populism" for everything lately (especially at Davos World Economic Forum) as if the people are their own enemies and don't know how to take care of themselves.

Education is key, but education for self. Not education for certificates, for recognition, for glory, or for mom. Education to improve one's own abilities.
Education should be the first priority in any case. Actually there is a specific time to get education, but trading and investment is something that we cans start at any stage of our life, therefore we should not compromise on education and should give first priority to education.
16  Economy / Economics / Re: Success of an investment may not be true to all? on: August 06, 2018, 11:00:07 AM
Earnings on crypto currency is a risk. In order to minimize the risk, one needs to be very good at navigating the crypto-currency market, knowing a lot and constantly following the news.
There is a risk attached with every kind of work which you are planning to do and that the probability of the risk greatly increases at time when you are thinking of investing of the money and that too at a place which has not been so long and that it is still in its early stages of the development. The only possible way of survival is to get as much knowledge as you can and then you have to make proper use of that knowledge.
That is very normal in trading, you have chances of making but the risk of losing your own investment is also there, it is depending on some factors, for example your experience, skill, and the most important is your luck. If you are lucky in trading then n o one can stop you from making money in trading.
17  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think bitcoin redistributes wealth or just makes the wealthy richer? on: August 06, 2018, 10:31:42 AM
I think, both. It redistribute wealth to those person who had engaged themselves here starting with nothing, and got to gain everything, then it make wealthy richer, since they already had a background in invesment and handling money for long term matters.

Yes. Can bitcoin help rich people make more money. There are also many other ordinary people who are rich by investing and keeping bitcoin. Bitcoin is great as it offers greater opportunity and value for the people. Anyone want to make a profit thanks to the bitcoin investment, and accept a bit of risk.
I think that it has already provided so many opportunities to poor people to become rich, and I think there are a lot of such stories where poor people have become millionaire from bitcoin investment. I think still it is providing opportunities to poor people to invest some money in bitcoin and make to doubt or even triple in next few months.
18  Economy / Economics / Re: Is NOW the best time to buy or enter in bitcoin? on: August 06, 2018, 10:00:39 AM
Bitcoin prices plunged from $4900 to $3300 withing pan of few days. Now some news-points from bitcoin world are claiming this price plunge was planned. Check following links:

https://news.bitcoin.com/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/
http://btc-flow.in/2017/09/16/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/
http://btc-flow.in/2017/09/16/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/

Now without going into whether above claims are true or not, my concern is "Isn't this is the right time to enter the bitcoin market or purchase few more". There is definite signs of improvement in the bitcoin price market. Current price is around $3757. It is quite possible to see bitcoin back to 4k to 5k or more. Given biggest players from finance sector are eying this lucrative market.
What do you think, is this is right time to buy some more bitcoins or wait and watch?



If it isn't now, then when? We should be wise and we should know how and when to buy bitcoins to have something to hodl. It is important that we'll maximize our gain through it. We should take advantage of the dip and just buy while we are waiting for the best situation of the market.
Of course you should invest now because after a long time bitcoin start increasing. I am watching the chart since morning and in my predict its journey is now started and we have to go with this journey.
It is always ok to invest money in bitcoin. bitcoin price is no doubt trading low, may be more lower than its actual price. People have very good opportunity to do investment in bitcoin and secure their position. Bitcoin will surely give them a very good profit.
19  Economy / Marketplace / Re: I SOLD ALL MY BITCOINS on: August 06, 2018, 09:24:38 AM
I think that's a big mistakes. You can't just decided on selling all your Bitcoin at this time when Bitcoin is about to rise. I may have to tell you should have keep it and buy more instead of selling
Yes I also think that you have made a very big mistake, I think that bitcoin price is already trading too much low then there is no need to sell in such a low price, we need to wait for some more time because still I am too much confident that bitcoin price is expected to increase too much in next few months.
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will you do with your Bitcoin in 2018? Will it become more valuable? on: August 06, 2018, 08:15:52 AM
During the new year of 2018, many of us Bitcoiners have resolutions to make our capital and Bitcoin holdings grow. Most will hodl onto their coins for the long-term until Bitcoin reaches an all-time high that would satisfy their goals. Other will sell their Bitcoin when they start to see prices falling below their targeted goal.

One thing for sure, is that 2017 has brought us many exciting things for crypto land. Bitcoin and rest of altcoins in existence have risen in value exponentially over the course of the year. Now that 2018 is in its very beginnings, I would like to know what will you do with your Bitcoin (either hodl, buy more, or sell) and will the pioneer cryptocurrency rise further in price?

Whenever you just hodl your coins over the course of 2018 or sell them, Bitcoin will make many more millionaires. What are your thoughts?  Smiley

I prefer on holding it since there are more investors this year due to the pump last year so we can expect a huge prices in the market before the year ends.
I am also not going to anything with my bitcoin, but to hold it and wait for some more time. I even thinking about to continue holding my bitcoin in 2019 which I can expect will be more better year for bitcoin price like 2017.
