1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Next month early January 2019. on: December 12, 2018, 08:18:54 AM
Everyone is worried and someone gives up their nerves, leave the market, everyone sells something to stay at least with something. I think we should hold on to btc and eth and hope for the best. if you can buy them and expect to get rich soon.

Anyone who will buy now at this time when the price of BTC and ETH is at the bottom then they will get a biggest chance to again enter in the crypto market the same as many people entered last year and they saw the price raised much higher after their investment.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Any chance market bounce back to where it was on: December 11, 2018, 08:28:59 AM
For 2 months, market is not consistent. In the past, I have seen worse but the market bounced back well. The current scenario is so weird for me. Almost all the currencies, I have been holding has fallen to where it was when I bought. Can the market ever be back? Im a part time miner by the way.
Yes that is 100 percent correct.. the market will definitely bounce back to where it was before even if it takes 5 years to do so
We may have to correct a lot of negative effects of the poor state of the cryptocurrency market today, but we need to understand that the cryptocurrency market has grown from 2016 to 2017 almost 40 times. Based on this, we can assume the same results in the near future.
In that time there were a lot of development to this field and there were a lot of supporters who were in the aim to give a success to this field but now when the governments involved we are facing another hurdle which will be passed sooner and we will see a more better time in crypto.
3  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we get people to use bitcoin as a currency? on: December 07, 2018, 08:23:49 AM
The problem with Bitcoin and crypto in general is that it's very volatile. The price keeps changing. Imagine accepting $5000 worth of Bitcoin for a TV or something and the next day Bitcoin is worth $2500. You've lost half your money in one day and all you did was accept BTC as payment.
You are right but if we will take the start then a good time will begin. Others will also start to use it and then the price of it will start in the forward direction and with that then people will not fear of the volatile price but they will be happen with the rising price.
4  Economy / Marketplace / Re: "Bitcoin mining is a Big no!" on: October 20, 2018, 12:10:27 PM
why can't it be big ...? , because bitcoin has not been officially used as a currency, and many do not know bitcoin, therefore bitcoin cannot be perfect yet. If bitcoin can often make campaigns, it is likely that bitcoin can be a big mining
No the reason is not that it is not centralized but the reason is that miners do not get profit because of low price of bitcoin. When the price rises up miners make more profit because they receive big money for their bitcoin. Now the expenses are high and profit is less. If the price falls a bit more they will definitely stop mining. Not earning is better than losing money and time.
5  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is better in poker: bluffing or playing only with good cards? on: October 18, 2018, 08:16:43 AM
Well gambling legends are already able to estimate the frequency to which their hand is likely to be beaten, in the end, having the best cards enables you to win more frequently with a no bluff strategy, but you can definitely bluff your way to a win if you get a few favorable positions to do so.

Personally, I tend to play a mixture of both, bluff when I have a good opportunity into a set I know the opponent doesn't have.

For those that are interested, there are actually mathematically opportune moments to bluff if certain cards come down on the flop, turn and river, if you memorize the combinations and number of players at the table and compare it to the charts you'll be able to determine if you have an ample opportunity to bluff.

See this for more information - https://www.cardschat.com/bluffing.php
You will good cards with luck which will not favor you most of the times. Bluffing is the main factor in poker games. If you are an experienced bluffer you can win the game easily and win big money, but if you are not then you may lose your money because of a good bluffer opponent. In some gambling games only bluffing will help you and luck is not counted there.
6  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin ever be 20k again? Why or Why not? on: October 15, 2018, 11:39:00 AM
$20,000? It would surely reach that price again in my opinion. It's just a matter of when.
So, this could reach up to 20k USD but no time to disclose when. You have a good answer and it is indeed right that BTC will going to reach even more than that but only time could tell. Maybe not in 2018 and maybe it would fall in 2019 or even on 2020 upwards.

P.S. Take my opinion lightly. Not an economic expert or anything. I definitely could be wrong.
Yes I do believe that in discussions like where speculations are only speculations and should not be the reference for one's decision in their crypto holdings.

I am almost sure that in 2 years, Bitcoin price will be even higher. BTC popularity has been constantly growing, and the demand for this crypto has been increasing.
Yeah you are tight it is just a matter of time and we know that nobody knows when. I can answer why but don’t know about the time. trend towards cryptocurrency in increasing day by day and more and more people come to know about cryptocurrency and when the understand and realize the importance and benefits of it, they will invest in it and when the market cap increase the price will also increase.
7  Economy / Speculation / Re: i think its the time to bitcoin to raise ? on: October 11, 2018, 12:34:07 PM
i think the value of the coin will increase in few days bcoz the last year at the same time the value of the coin was about $18000  dollars
so i have a positive feeling of increase of the coin 

I would like a couple of more months of a flat price to stack up on cheap coins before we go $100k. Ideally, at least one year of no action to keep all the noobs away and keep picking up cheap coins before we can never buy under 5 figures a coin ever again.

Always had a second thought when decided to buy coins, what if bitcoin or other coins' values reach a stage where I will not be able to buy? This really pondered now and then and this pushed me to buy more coins recently. Current opportunity may not be available when I seek for, hence i made use of current situation /opportunity. Everyone can do the same keeping in mind the critical situation might happen in future. Its better crap few best potential coins with current genuine rate as I will not able to buy these potential coins down the line when their values become 4 figured.
The current situation and the previous year situation are completely different. People are not interesting to put their money in bitcoin because they fear to lose their money. Bitcoin will grow gradually with the passage of time and there will be no bump in the price. Most of the investors convert their money to Altcoin because they think that bitcoin has more potential than bitcoin.
8  Other / Meta / Re: Selling of merits and btctalk accounts on: October 06, 2018, 10:47:31 AM
I saw that many users are selling their merits and hacked btctalk accounts, shouldn't these people be banned? What are the moderators here for? Why are threads like those even possible? In order to stop the selling of accounts I think mods should ban the ones selling as soon as possible. Most of the account sellers are going to try to scam you anyways, so they can make easy money off naive people very easily if they are allowed to do it here literally on the btctalk forum.
But why would anyone be selling their merits and accounts which took them a hard work to raise? 🤔To me that’s stupid. I can’t do that, I know how hard I’m working here to raise my account and also gain merits, cause I know that it’s going to help in future and I’m really going to benefit from it. Well, I can’t tell people what to do, whatever they chose to do is their business and not mine.
9  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Why the market is falling and why not be afraid on: October 06, 2018, 10:01:14 AM
my boss said he will buy when the market falling. but i don't think so. there are some reason to make people afraid and go out. so when it fall i go out too
I these days investment in bitcoin is like gambling. When you invest your money in bitcoin it seems that you make a bet and then waiting for the result of the game.

Winning and losing totally depends on luck. The same way nobody knows what will happen with bitcoin price in the future. They take risks while investing their money. Some people think it is their future and they do not panic about the future price of bitcoin.
10  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto Bull Run!!! on: October 03, 2018, 10:53:49 AM
ARE WE ENTERING A CRYPTO BULL RUN?!
(Don't sleep on the poll, your opinions matter!)

For the first time in the last few months, people seem to be acting positively about the cryptocurrency market. This is because, in the last couple of days, the market has risen at a surprising rate. On August 27 the global market cap was $215 Billion, on August 29 it is worth $232 Billion. That is nearly an 8% rise. It has lead people to question whether we are experiencing a bull run and how investors should prepare for it. The Financial Times defines a bull run as simply a time when prices rise on a financial market, so by those terms, this could be considered one — however, the question now is about whether traders should be treating it as such. It is one thing to say that we are in a bull run, but it is another to change your trading habits to accommodate for one.

BTCitcoin during the bull run

Bitcoin experienced two impressive jumps in price. One at the start of August 28 which brought it from $6,700 to $6,900, and another later in the day taking it from $6,900 to $7,000. This is in stark contrast to how Bitcoin was performing just one week ago.

The nature of Bitcoin’s rise has also brought other coins up. Ethereum, XRP, Litecoin, and most other cryptocurrencies are seeing the same bullish behavior. The fact that this rise in value is being experienced throughout most coins and tokens is certainly indicative of a bull run.

Not every cryptocurrency is so lucky

Out of the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap, there are only a handful of coins and tokens which are performing poorly, most of which are relatively unknown. Of the coins that are well-known, Nano is currently struggling to hold onto its gains from the previous days. WAVES is also stagnating in price (although at noon August 29 it has had a spike) and PIVX is moving negatively. On the note of PIVX, fans of the coin engaged in a debate with fans of its rival: Monero. You can find this debate on the cryptocurrency subreddit. While these coins are not doing their best right now, none of them are declining harshly.

I’m not expecting bull run to happening again because it already happened. So the bull run is not even close, but there will continue to be some up and down (price will be fluctuating) till the time bull run takes place and price will rise to a very high rate,. But as for now, the bull run is not even close to happening. Maybe it will be next year, but I’m not sure about that.
11  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency Market Could Hit $1 Trillion This Year on: October 02, 2018, 10:06:11 AM
As cryptocurrencies are more familiar, more capital will also flood into the relevant market!
The market for cryptocurrencies will rise to an amazing height in the future, and this is only a matter of time!
The current situation of the markets tells us that people are unhappy of cryptocurrency and they do not trust cryptocurrency anymore. In this situation I think that the market cap of cryptocurrency will not increase. Hope that the future will be good for crypto and will cross $1 trillion. We will have to wait for that time. We should not be panic at all.
12  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell car for Bitcoin on: October 01, 2018, 11:46:50 AM
in my opinion it's up to you, but before you do it it's better to think about it again because you have to know that bitcoin has a high risk and it could be that what you predict is wrong so it will make you lose everything
I think your car is old and you want to change it otherwise I don’t think it is better idea. In my opinion people should invest only extra money in bitcoin because it is very risky and there is no guarantee that you will win money after some time. you may lose your investment because it is not like regular business. Anyway good luck for you and hope that you will be happy.
13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Increased Number of Scammers on: October 01, 2018, 07:46:33 AM
No wonder - fraudulent schemes in the crypto industry are not news at all. Many of them were used long before the appearance of virtual currencies and, apparently, will live for a very long time. You just need to learn to recognize the scum and observe the technique of financial security.
Having that knowledge will give you a good chance not being harmed by those scammers, understanding and learning how they work is the best way to anticipate their actions, people who are very furious about those scum businesses around always find proper actions in order to avoid being victimized
better to be well prepared as scammers always updates their strategy and always go with the flow we need to be very wise to notice them.
It is not only cryptocurrency market but in every field of life we see scammers and frauds. Some mentally ill people choose a way to loot innocent people and announce such benefits that attract people to put their money with them and when they realize that it is enough, they disappear from the market. Nobody take responsibility for such scams and to get back looted money.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to overcome my fear and how to start trading? on: September 29, 2018, 08:14:27 AM
You must be able to find information about how to trade properly and correctly and how to determine the right time to buy coins so you can get a lot of luck that I did to overcome the fear that I experienced when I wanted to trade
If you fear of trading you should not start trading because trading is not easy. If you have no or less experience and knowledge about crypto trading you may lose your money. Better to hold your coins for long time. Before trading keep in mind that you should be patient and have the courage to bear the loss if the price fall. Impatient and emotional people cannot become good traders.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Friends reactions to crypto currencies? on: September 28, 2018, 09:41:38 AM
My friends weren't very positive about cryptos until I started getting good returns from the market. I still remember how awestruck those guys were when I made returns up to 100x and they were happy with their 10x returns on Fixed Deposits and other government schemes.
It was only then that those guys decided to invest all of their monies here.
But unfortunately for them, it was the peak and they lost 90% of their investments.
The same with my buddies. They still do not share my excitement and love with Bitcoin and the cryptocurrencies. They try to persuade me to quit trading and investing in crypto. Maybe, later these guys will understand that they were wrong.
its hard for us to explain to our friend.maybe their desire and passion was not in cryptocurrency.so even we told them several times , they would not change their mind.
Different people have different thoughts about cryptocurrency. Some say that it is totally nonsense to give the control of your money to those people whom you do not know and if you lost your money not due to dip in the price; you will not be able to claim your money. Some people give positive response and in favor of crypto but the majority are against crypto.
16  Economy / Speculation / Re: What factors make Bitcoin rise again? on: September 26, 2018, 12:54:19 PM
which makes a factor of the increase in bitcoin prices may be due to good news and maybe also because of the higher demand that can make prices expensive and experience price increases.

I'm sure the mindset of bitcoin users today has developed and matured, so they aren't always affected by media coverage. And in my opinion, the increase in the price of bitcoin at that time was caused by the existence of buying action which was large in a number of markets. This thing of course can trigger high demand. In each transaction activity surely there will be two aspects that are interconnected, among others namely demand and supply. Requests and offers will meet each other and will form a meeting point in unit prices.
In my opinion people’s trust, high demand, high investment capital and the general use of bitcoin are the factors that cause growth in bitcoin price. if there is no demand for bitcoin how the price will go up? If people are not interested in bitcoin and they want to invest their money in Altcoin, the bitcoin price will never increase. So it is mandatory that more and more people will to put their money in bitcoin.
17  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Watch out for the scams out there on: September 26, 2018, 12:06:26 PM
If people have little bit of common sense then most of the scams can be avoided because most of the scammers aleady have negative trust or untrusted feedback and also if they don't have we may assue they are scammer from the offer they are making and always remember that you need to look for an escrow when you ment a person on online for trading or exchanging.
Yeah you are right; scammers also give such benefits that are too much for a new coin and project. Checking the project is mandatory before investing your money in it. by doing this you will be safe. Never trust anybody easily because they will show you a shining future, but the facts are different from what he offers. I always invest in bitcoin or Ethereum.
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: August 20, 2018, 11:52:32 AM
I always have a mindset that gambling is fun and entertaining, I used to played for profit but now I played for entertained myself, I like to share my point of view about gambling, but I afraid when I introduce gambling to someone who cant control himself or herself then it can become a problem, and I can become the one that make him/her become addicted

So in one my hand I'd like people to enjoy gambling but in one hand I afraid it can turned into disaster and I could the person that cause the person become addicted, so I kind of confused when someone come and asked me to teach or explained thing about gambling, should I teach them or I just ignore them? How can I teach or convince them that gambling is only for fun? Is it a wrong idea to teach or convince them to gamble for fun?
I think convincing other people to play gambling is a wrong idea because he might get addicted with if he started to get greedy in his winnings, even you teach him for fun he might still get into greed.

I totally agree with you. The very nature of winning something is addictive and whilst its good to h ave fun while playing its also dangerous because you could associate that particular pleasure only through playing and nothing else which becomes problematic.
I will never try to convince my friends for playing gambling. I know that then it will be my own responsibility if they will lose  money from gambling. Therefore I will never in favor to convince my friends about gambling activities. I will always to convince people not play gambling for along.
19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Frustrations: Losing Streak on: August 20, 2018, 11:14:31 AM
And all that frustration is against the great lesson that mathematics (probability theory) teaches us, i.e. that losing streaks of any arbitral length will eventually happen with probability 1.0 for everybody if they play long enough ...

The longer you going to play eventually you will end up losing only. And this people do not understand and they wear the sunglasses of greed due to which they only sees money and at the end of the day move out of losing the money. As addicted people are the best example of how much money they lose rather than winning it.
Most Gamblers don't see this thing. They don't see that if they play longer, the outcome is they will end up losing all of their money. Most gamblers are too greedy that they want to win all of their co-gamblers money. When I am gambling, there are some times that I become greedy and the outcome is I lose all of my money.
The worst thing is that they really deceive themselves and their families that they are winning, while they are losing. They can provide facts and numbers proving that they win. Of course, the numbers are really false.
In fact the gamblers never like to accept their defeat and the money they have lost. They always think that they can recover their lost if they will play gambling again. But for every time they try again and again and for every time they get the same result.
20  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What do you think, will BTC again jump in December? on: August 20, 2018, 10:45:33 AM
I am confused that so many investors have left the market. It has a negative effect - the price of the cryptocurrencies are falling. Nevertheless, I still have a hope that Bitcoin will gain in December.
I think we should encourage our traders, because in this wise, new traders will also feel fear to join the bitcoin and invest in it. I can understand it is hard time for all traders, but same like you, i also have good hope from bitcoin.
