1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will other coins beat bitcoin in the future? on: December 11, 2018, 08:35:09 AM
Bitcoin is still the leading Cryptocurrency as I do not see it's replacement for now.  The most important Cryptocurrency for now is bitcoin and it will remain so for unforeseeable future.  Many altcoin like ethereum are promising but bitcoin will lead Cryptocurrency!
I agree with your point and it is because the users of Bitcoin are much more than any other coin. The usage of Bitcoin is also much bigger. Many companies and online services are using Bitcoin in their businesses which is giving a more stronger base to Bitcoin.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will cyptocurrency never be great again as it was? on: December 03, 2018, 06:07:38 AM
I still think the future of crypto currency is still bright, it is true that prices are down now, but in the few years to come, new set of investors willl enter the space and drag the prices up
Yeah that is right. Just like the previous decline of the price when the price of Bitcoin started to decrease in 2013 but again it start to rise. At that years BTC was much weaker and there were only people but now it is much stronger as along with investors many companies and institutions also supporting Bitcoin and a number of governments also are in the favour of Bitcoin.

I don't see any strong long term momentum right now, to consider ETH bullish. The bottom line I can see is 88$ and 44$ which I will be in with all I have if we reach them!
I hope that the price of Eth will not drop that much which you expect in the coming time. I am sure that in the coming week the price will go better and another rally in the prices of crypto currencies will start. Then the price of ethereum will also be much better and will reach to its ATH price.
4  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we get people to use bitcoin as a currency? on: November 24, 2018, 09:29:27 AM
How can we get people to use bitcoin as a real currency and not just a quick way to get cash as a lot of people seem to do? When I say currency, I mean the literal definition of currency as something that is used as a medium of exchange.
Even online, there are only a few stores who are accepting it as payment.
Getting people to make use of Bitcoin would be a very difficult thing to do. First of all, most of us already have a bank account and do you expect them to withdraw the whole they have in their accounts or maybe half of it and move it to cryptocurrency? No, that’s not going to happen, cryptocurrency is not even stable, how do you expect people to do such a thing? They will never agree.

Not today at least. Satoshi meant for bitcoin to be used like a currency for easier and cheaper transaction, though btc's current state would make it hard for anyone to consider it for it's real use. But don't count that posibility out as well since bitcoin's future is still far from realization.
There is no connection between conversion of bitcoin and fiat. How can you call it blockchain technology and decentralized when you turn virtual thing into an existing one?
5  Economy / Economics / Re: harmonization of fiat and crypto on: November 24, 2018, 05:08:02 AM
I have read several threads that say "fiat will die and will be replaced with crypto" as you agree? I personally do not agree. because when the real system is already established in value and a new system comes with a fluctuating value, the government will not take that risk. But do you agree if Fiat collaborates with crypto in building a future financial system? without killing one system. share your opinion about this.

FIAT and crypto could collaborate, there no way that people will immediately thrown FIAT away to be replaced by crypto. There's a lot of things to be considered first.
By the collaboration, I here pick that the mutual existence of both Bitcoin and fiat and that is already happening in economies where Bitcoin is being used. In addition, they might stay around for long without fading.
6  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning to trade on: November 22, 2018, 09:47:47 AM
The best advice i could give you really is to be friends with other traders! Yes that is very important new or season traders have both so much to share, not to mention it is happier to trade with a buddy. Also never believe pump and dump groups! Believe me they do it for themselves and not really to share info to anyone. Lastly, there is an app in play store called JCP which you can download for free. It teaches japanese candle reading.

Sometimes you have to touch the rod to check how much hot it is, so that you can mold it to any shape. So yes, go through some basic demo classes and practices and see how loss affects you.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Who will finally win the Blockchain competition; USA or China? on: November 22, 2018, 06:28:02 AM
If i have to make an educated guess, i think China will win in the blockchain competition considering how serious China is into business field. Seems that business is already in their DNA and that's may be the reason why they always succeed in this field.
There are so different points about involvement of China in bitcoin development. We mostly read that they are getting their hands out of this world. Rather they are banning bitcoin promotions.
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: is currently the right time to buy bitcoin on: November 21, 2018, 07:35:27 AM
at the moment the price of bitcoin is very cheap, I want to ask all of you, is this the right time to buy bitcoin right now? please give me a definite answer!

Buying bitcoin is now is in the hand of the bitcoin believers, if you think its about time for you to buy it now,
well you can buy anytime you want it to do. Just always compare the price its value before and at the present then
if you think is cheap now rather than before, well I guess even we use common sense for sure, we know what the answer is, isn't right?
Honestly I don't know anymore. Anytime I say it is the right time to buy bitcoin because it neither can't go any lower nor it can stay this low for a long time it goes down even further. I feel like when we say "this is the bottom" the price of bitcoin sees that as a challenge and just goes out and gets even lower. I started to fear what could happen if we just let it be and not work hard to keep it up.

We are all here trying to find a way to get the bitcoin prices up, everyone wants the price to be 20 thousand again and even more and try to figure a way to do that but couple rich folk comes in and sells their coins and all the hard work is gone in half an hour. When the price initially dropped to 5.6 thousand or so I said that is that is the greatest price we can get but now its even lower, I wish to say it is right time to buy bitcoin now but who can say it won't be 4.8k soon?
9  Economy / Speculation / Re: Market's on minimum, time to buy? on: November 20, 2018, 09:24:46 AM
I hope the price for this now is the minimum and not to dump more.
It is not a minimum value in Bitcoin because we see this was reach 5k USD in this year but it is maintain a more than 5.5k USD.and again market is stay in a same level so it is waiting for quick jump in crypto market. Because crypto hunters are buying more Bitcoin in current traffic so everyone earn some profit in future.
Well we can’t assume the downstream value of bitcoin. This year, it is the lowest price at five thousand and some hundreds. But be hopeful for a bright future ahead. Keep yourself updated.
10  Economy / Economics / Re: How does bitcoin become a currency? on: November 20, 2018, 07:48:10 AM
Bitcoin can't become a currency. Bitcoin is independent and is called cryptocurrency. Monetary is only an intermediary in Bitcoin trading.
If you are talking about the global currency, yes Bitcoin can no doubt become the global currency. It is just not one right now because not every country accepts and uses Bitcoin.
11  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic crash in 2019! RE.1 on: November 19, 2018, 11:06:42 AM
When it comes to economics, there are many prophets of doom ready to provide their negative opinion by making catastrophic predictions.
It is probable that the world is moving towards a kind of reset: we are too many, and there are no resources for everyone, if everyone wants to reach Western standards of life.
The solution will be to recreate overall poverty.
Well the OP did warned us. In the end there was a crash, maybe not in 2019 but it happened in late 2018. We really should have listened to him. I do not really believe this is some sort of magical thing that he figured it out but honestly whole world looks like they are holding with a finger right now trying not to fall.

There are countries, there are huge companies and there are a lot of (probably millions of people) trying to just live, survive. Economy doesn't look like it can take another hit, another 2008 type of crisis for people and we will see some sort of chaotic thing going on. Governments needs to come together and find a way to prevent that. If the world keeps drifting into this horrible economic world we live in right now than we may see a huge change for all of us.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Reason why crypto market bull run on: November 17, 2018, 07:53:25 AM
The cryptocurrency market is a whale market,  as soon as whale get enough cheap coin from the panics and other people who are moved by volatility of cryptocurrency market,  the red will disappear and real value of coin across board will emerge!
Because it is controlled up to a great extent by the whales, it is no doubt a whale market and they play the game that is profitable in their own interest so bull comes when it is in harmony with the profit flow of the whales as well.
13  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the problem of trust in projects? on: November 17, 2018, 06:56:37 AM
Its true that many scam ICOs but we should not judge all ICOs are scam. Many good project need investor and they have legit developers. In any situation, there is must be a people who want to take advantages and thats why we should always aware when we decide join in ICOs
Yes. We need to understand that not all of them are fakes. There are some ICOs that are legit and good for investments. We just have to be very careful and be very vigilant in choosing a project so that we can be able to gain something and satisfied on it.
We direly need this really. Right now, every other week there comes a little, stupid coin which is based on very devasted projects. They are only making bad impact of crypto.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin now below $10,000 on: November 16, 2018, 08:08:10 AM
You made a post when the price was around 10k-11k in February. and now bitcoin has dropped to below 7k. maybe you will suffer a loss if you bought last February, and will sell it now. maybe all you have to do is be patient to survive until the price recovers to above 10k. I myself am trying to be patient with the current situation and maybe not a few people are getting tired of seeing the current market conditions that are not recovering immediately.
And don't forget there are lot of people who still waiting bitcoin price to rise more than $10k since they have bought it at current price or lower.
Yes it is below the given value but it will rise in future as well. The market revival often takes time and those who understand the business cycles are very informed about it that’s why they do not drop out of the market when it is red.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: If you had 10000$ on: November 16, 2018, 06:51:26 AM
Probably, 30% of this money will be spent to Bitcoins. The other part will be spread between the altcoins that I trust. Suppose, it will be Ethereum, Crypterium, TRON, Monero, Stellar, and ICON.
I think this will differ with every single situation depending on the investor. Someone will utilize the whole sum in bitcoin and some will do what you have said, division and later one is more suitable.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: End of ethereum? on: November 16, 2018, 06:17:07 AM
I am still sure this is not the end of ETH because if seen at this time the price of Ethereum can only survive at $ 200, if ETH touches $ 100 and down then it is the right time to say the end of Ethereum. but i think now it's still too early to say Ethereum will end.
End of ETH is just a slang or foolish statement because technology gets advanced with the passage of time and it will also grow. The fall does not show that technology had degenerated but rather a degenerated market.
17  Economy / Economics / Re: Japan Approves Self-Regulation for Cryptocurrency Industry on: November 15, 2018, 11:12:16 AM
Japan proving once again why they'll become the real cryptocurrency mecca in the future. Good for the govt to give the crypto industry in the country have more autonomy so that it continues to grow without too much hassle.

Do you think we'll see this happening in other countries anytime soon?
It depends on whether this proves to be a succesful aproach from the govt or not (from an economic point of view, since all the govt around want is money). I can see this happening in countries actively showing their pro-crypto stance, like some countries in Europe or even South Korea.
That is always the thing with having visionary leaders. They are always smart enough to see things people could not see and in that way, they are always able to take the bold brilliant step in setting the space. This is indeed a very brilliant idea, which I believe will really end up flying big time and even help in the development of the space within that territory.

It is always a good thing to have a body that will regulate itself and then we will be able to see it get even more interesting as people tend to follow certain rules and then no compromise in a way at all.
18  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Selling items online for Bitcoin or crypto on: November 14, 2018, 12:23:43 PM
Hey dudes hope you are well. I sell a lot of things on Craigslist. I am now planning on putting a couple things up and saying I accept btc or eth along with the greenback. Wondering if you guys have tried this. I
It’s very easy to sell items online for Bitcoin, it’s just like when you’re selling some stuffs for PayPal and you can also do that on Craigslist. All you have to do is describe your item and potential buyers will contact. It’s much better if it’s an item they can download or something that can easily be shipped cause you wouldn’t have to show your face.
19  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Most Promising Cryptocurrencies to Invest in 2019 on: November 13, 2018, 12:02:28 PM
It is sensible to know which coins have the most solid investment fundamentals with the best chance of generating profit in the coming year. This piece will give an overview of the best cryptocurrency to invest in 2019.

Best cryptocurrencies to invest in 2019
Ethereum no matter how big it looks has the biggest potential right now. The mining sector is moving back to bitcoin and going away from gpu mining with the drop of the prices, the small investors in crypto mining is seeing this as a reason to sell their cards and get out of the mining game, this can't continue forever and the price has to go up to make it worthwhile for the miners, also the ICO's are long gone, there isn't a new one people are investing currently which means there needs to be a price increase and a bull run to make it worth investing into ICO's again and when that happens the price will go up again to sustain constant buys from investors who send it to ICO's. Combine these two and you have yourself a x3 price increase in ETH easily and that is amazing for a big coin like eth.
20  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin trading or other business what do you choose? on: November 10, 2018, 07:32:33 AM
If I depend on the expertise and experience that I have, I cannot force to do business while my expertise is in trading and vice versa. from my point of view both have the same high risk but in business, we face a real world that can be more easily understood, whereas in crypto the advantage is that we are not stressed with time.
One can be into the two jobs and still manage them properly. Offline/office jobs are meant to be your main job while the other is a part-time job. If you’re working in the office the good thing is that end of the month you will be getting paid, although Bitcoin might earn you more than whatever is being paid to you there, but it’s still not much reliable, cause you’re not sure of anything until you get it.
