1  Economy / Economics / Re: Money vs Barter on: December 14, 2018, 05:40:51 AM
Money is one of the important concepts, This section talks about money from the perspective of microeconomics.when people exchange goods and services without using money, this is called barter. "I'll cook dinner if you'll do the dishes" is an example of barter. Imagine an economy in wich i can sell services as a consultant to banks, but what i want is to buy a new suit. the clothing store that sell suits does not have any use for my services as a banking consultant. i sell consulting services for money, and i buy a suit using money. money serves as a medium of exchange. the bank does not sell suits. how can barter work?
If we were still using the barter system in doing exchange, then there wouldn’t be anything like banks. We have banks because of the current way we do exchange. Everything now has values and instead of you exchanging what you have for what you don’t have  you make use of money to buy and also keeping the things you have.
2  Economy / Economics / Re: Confirmed, bull run begins now, what expectations? on: December 14, 2018, 05:08:03 AM
Possibly what has been taking place seems to be the promised bull run start for the ongoing year once after reach ath by the starting of the year. After a long time period, the growth has begun making users and the investors get ready to experience the real pumping.
bitcoin should experience a positive trend, because seeing the development of a growing number of new traders, it is only natural that investors start to get excited about buying and selling activities, because we still hope there will be attractive benefits, opportunities in various countries also show positive direction, with some governments opening doors their trade, by providing facilities that can support the use of bitcoin.
Which new readers exactly? The ones that are not ready to invest anything yet and are still panicking because they don’t want to lose their money as the price keeps going down everyday? Nah they are not helping in any way at all. Price has decreased to $3k+, and I think this is the bottom, although some people have been saying there will still be a decrease but I don’t think that’s true.
3  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: which is easier 1-2% a day or 20-30% per month on: December 13, 2018, 06:52:52 AM
Ok neither of these are easy but as a long term strategy to do think its best to day trade and try and get 1-2% a day or invest in a couple of coins and try and get 20% over a month
Everyone has their own strategy. If you decide to rely on the 1% daily profit, based on your skills, and it’s actually working for you, by the end of the month you will have accomplished about 30% or more. But a lot of people would prefer to go long term while investing, it usually works for those that are perfectly skilled in trading.
4  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Ways of making money in crypto currency on: December 13, 2018, 06:22:00 AM
Trading crypto currency is believed to be profitable and lucrative business only to those who have the trading skill. Apart from trading and participating in signature campaign is there any other lucrative ways in which one can make money that is less capital intensive in crypto currency?
I have seen a lot of them like XBTFreelancer, Cryptogrind and Coinality, but they are not making any sense since people are not ready to pay what it worth the time and effort put into working on their jobs. Maybe it would be best to offer services in this section or go for trading, since that’s the only thing that can help you make good profits, not without risks.
5  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Do we need blockchain technology? on: December 12, 2018, 06:49:37 AM
Hello everyone.

When I see there are too many ICO and shitcoins on novaexchange. I keep asking myself: do we really need blockchain technology?

In case of Bitcoin. Of course, I agree.
What about ETH? I agree too.

But, have a look at the others on the market. I don't even know why should people use their service. There is no real use in real life.

An ad management system on blockchain? - We already had Google Ads & Facebook Ads.
A social network on blockchain? (steem) - Do we? I don't see anything but a centralized forum hosted on a random hosting using its currency to pay for the writers.

There are too many projects  that we don't really need it on blockchain.

Sometimes, I think there is a black swan (Blockchain is useless in real life) lurking around.
If you don’t need Blockchain then why on earth do you still need Bitcoin? Bitcoin runs on Blockchain and without Blockchain I don’t think we will be able to make use of Bitcoin. And apart from being used for cryptocurrency and for transaction, there are lots of other things that we can do with blockchain, a lot of them.
6  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why the market will continue to fall on: December 12, 2018, 06:17:21 AM
1st off these are not coins, why are they called "coins" when they clearly are not? This is the first part off the scam.... #2 why does the bitcoin logo look like a gold coin? Crypto is Digital Fiat and like all fiat all cryptos backed by nothing will eventually reach Zero. In bitcoins case it will reachh virtually zero because it will become a collectors item in the future due to being one of the biggest bubbles in history. Traders are gonna gonna rekt thhese coins have no value and time will show you
You’re not the first person that is calling bitcoin a scam, and the reasons you gave here is not good enough for anyone to consider BTC as scam. Anyway, whatever that happens, I’m always ready for it, though I have also seen someone predict that the price will not get back up very soon, but unlike you he didn’t call it a scam. So I’m sure already that it won’t be anytime, but it will rise.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the market on: December 11, 2018, 08:30:03 AM
Honestly, what do you think will happen with the market? no matter how positive I want to be, I think that lot of people (myself included) were waiting for the bull run to start this month, but we're already at 25 and there's still no movement, I think we should be thankful that btc hasn't continued to drop, but many projections have fallen apart when we're almost entering November and nothing of the bull run, what do you think will happen with the market at the end? we're finally seeing the beginnings of a stabilization? our goal should be mass adoption now that prices are stable?


A lot of us were expecting the bull run for sure, and I really hoped it was going to start this December but nothing has happened yet. I’m really confused right, especially the media is confusing me. I once read that the bull run will be next year or next two years and that till then the price will remain stable around $4k and $3k. But recently I’m starting to see some sites saying it’s going to be anytime soon.
8  Economy / Economics / Re: The harmful affect of a continuous downward movement of the Bitcoin price. on: December 11, 2018, 07:50:20 AM
Most people would agree that it would be more beneficial for the price of a stock/commodity/currency to slowly go up, rather than continuously going down.

Investors <short-term> are looking at a potential investment, where they can be motivated to invest more money into that investment, because the profit <carrot> is held in front of them, because the price is continuously going up. This is what happened prior to 2017 and that is why investors dumped large amounts of money into Bitcoin. <Back then, the price pattern showed a continuous upward trend>

Now, with the price constantly going down, investors are sceptical to invest in Bitcoin and some short-term investors are pulling the plug.

Even if you are not interested in Bitcoin as an investor and you are just buying bitcoins to use as a currency, then a continuous downward movement in the price is more heart breaking, because you are getting less value for the bitcoins that you bought the day or the week before.

Even merchants hate a downward spiral of the price, because they will lose profit, if they are not using a payment processor to convert the coins to fiat currency.

On the way down a lot of people panic and they sell at a loss and these people will lose confidence in the currency/commodity and they will never invest in Bitcoin again.

We need a slow upward trend to get us back on track or this will go down in flames.  Sad
It’s best the way that things have been. Although I am not happy for how the market is going down, but it shouldn’t only go up, cause many sees it as a source of making quick and free money. Now that the price is down, all of them have dismissed themselves and it would take them by surprise when the market begin to go back up.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: EtherDelta vs ForkDelta on: December 08, 2018, 10:11:01 AM
These two decentralized exchanges have long been familiar to many people, but among them I always choose forkdeltha because it have a much higher interface speed and fewer bugs and crashes compared to the etherdelta.
Yes, that is good than the etherdelta but some people like me are using etherdelta from the beginning so they are familiar more to etherdelta and mostly stay on that exchange and sometimes on forkdelta. But because of the low volume I do not often like it. In recent times, forkdelta has moved into new domain and their server speed is also decent now. By having whatever pairs available on which exchange, we may decide to go for one of these exchanges. Having multiple options is always good as we can minimize our risk somewhat by trading in multiple exchanges.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Any chance market bounce back to where it was on: December 08, 2018, 09:27:15 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.
There is chance that everything might get back to where it was before falling. If you watch the market, anytime it falls, when it’s about to go back up, it will usually go above the highest it reached before. So if it’s going to repeat the same this time around, that means the bull run that will come this time around will be a very big one.
11  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My luck is very bad for crypto trading 😞 on: December 07, 2018, 07:13:58 AM
I think my luck is very bad. I can not earn good profits on cryptocurrency trading any day. An example of this is Doge coin. I invested in Doge coin probably 2 months ago. Which I bought 39 satoshi and bought a total of 126000 doge coins. It was almost 2-3 weeks, I did not check the price. But when I check price on coinmarketcap a few days ago, see Doge coin 100 satoshi cross. After that I was very happy. But when I login into exchange, for selling Doge coin, I was shocked, seeing that my coins were sold in 49 satoshi. I did not remember when I had a sell order. After seeing that I was upset. That was not the first time, before several times, I could not sell many coins at a good price 😞


But finally, an education has realized that if you buy a coin for long or short time, then you should check price minimum one time every day.
I don’t think it’s something that has to do with how lucky you are and how you’re not being lucky, of course it also has to do with a little bit of luck, but mostly hard work is what will get you what you want. If you keep gambling and relying on luck, it might not work out for you. So I’m guessing that you haven’t studied what you’re meant to know about trading yet.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can I daily earn 10% on: December 07, 2018, 06:23:08 AM
Hello, I am newbie in trading. I start trading for make some profit
Would it be possible to make 10% of your capital every day?

This would be 300% in a month, this is a lot.

It really comes to your capital:

If I invest 200$ and 10% of 200 would be come 20$ daily and one month come 600$
...

If I trying hard daily profit 10% huge profit come in one month
If you invest $200 for trading, do you go all in when trading with it, cause if you do so you’re likely to lose everything at a time. It is possible to make 10% daily, but since trading is very risky, you should also expect to lose at times if you’re not careful in what you choose. So it is possible but not really, cause you don’t know what happens, luck might not be on your side.
13  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What places do you do your shopping online ? on: December 06, 2018, 07:41:17 AM
We run CoinRebates, a rewards program that lets you earn bitcoin rebates for shopping at more than 300 online stores. We want to know which stores you often shop so we can put more emphasis on them, or if they are not already partnered with us, we know to reach out to them.

Popular stores:

1. AliExpress (4%)
2. Expedia (4%)
3. Walmart (2%)
4. Groupon (5%)
5. Gamiss (12%)
6. LightInTheBox (6%)

All stores: http://www.coinrebates.com/stores/all

Stores accepting bitcoin: http://www.coinrebates.com/stores/bitcoin-accepted

Stores we cannot add: Amazon, eBay
None of the above, I thought Expedia was only meant for booking flights and hotels? When it didn’t turn to an online shopping? I make use of eBay and Amazon, those are the ones I can trust, but I have heard a lot about AliExpress cause it’s popular but I don’t use it (why use it when I already use Amazon?) it’s even been long since I last used ebay, only Amazon for now, don’t need to be jumping around.
14  Economy / Economics / Re: Everything is an investment-change my mind on: December 05, 2018, 06:45:38 AM
I constantly here people say " Only invest what you can afford to lose"  Well no matter where your wealth is it could crash.

-Invest in USD- USA could collapse and experience mass inflation making your dollars nearly worthless
-Invest in Bonds- Government could collapse making your bonds worthless
-Invest in real estate- Housing prices could crash, natural disaster could hit and insurance company could go bankrupt
-Invest in metals- prices could crash, asteroid mining could collapse prices

Your money is never 100% safe no matter where it is invested.
Nothing is 100% safe, but there are things that are considered as investment, and these ones has high level of risk involved. The only thing there is never to rely on just one but diversify and keep your money in different assets/stocks, banks etc. Why I’m saying this is so that when one fails, you will still have the others to rely on and wait for that one to recover. So nothing is safe.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Security Tokens Era Begins In 2019 on: December 05, 2018, 06:08:40 AM
Hey guys, look what I found:
"In search of a new investment opportunity that is fast-growing and continuously-developing? Look no further than security token offerings (STOs) as they are a valuable alternative to raising capital on a global basis and are becoming more common in today’s market of crypto fundraising.

The initial boom in the STO realm began in the latter half of 2018 and in the near future, they will be unanimously considered superior to ICO's due to increased security for investors leading to a decreased possibility for fraud. It was initially expected for 2018 to be the year of security tokens, but it was just the beginning. During this year

U.S. The Securities and Exchange Commission has stepped up pressure on the ICO market, forcing it to falter thus scared away many investors. However, this was only a necessary step in the transformation of this fundraising mechanism from a still new, incomprehensible and unsafe for investors into a truly mature, serious financial market. In the near future, we can expect that the Security Tokens industry will begin attracting back investors from both classic financial and ICO markets.

With significant progress made over the last 10 months, 2019 will be the true year for security tokens as they will replace utility tokens as the leading investment opportunity. Investing has never been so affordable. It is the combination of modern blockchain technologies and basic government control to ensure security that will make the sale of assets transparent as never before."
-----------------------------
Do you agree wit it?
I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think anyone would be able to stop these fraud that has been happening. But let watch and see how it’s going to be, hope they don’t mess everything up just like they are doing right now, cause all they are good at doing is promising what can never be done. So one foot in and the other out, in case things start to spoil, I’m out.
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where next? Preparing the ground for the big players! on: December 04, 2018, 06:35:52 AM
We don’t know yet, but there have been a lot of news going round that there is going to be an increase soon, especially Bitcoin and Ethereum, that’s what I have read from several sources. Before the price meltdown I was able to read about that from a particular source, can’t remember if it was Cointelegraph or CCN, but it did worked as they said. Now I’ve been the same about price going up, and it’s sure to happen anytime soon.
17  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance day trading [btc] on: December 04, 2018, 05:56:12 AM

The crypto bear market has been difficult to trade I'm really happy that we seem to be approaching to the end of a cycle correction, while I've shorted my btc and have being adding to my stack I have found a technique that has been good to grow the btc stack that I keep hodling.

I'm using an approach based in compounded growth rates. Basically taking quick in and out trades of 3% gain 2% stop-loss (buying and then selling alts) in small time frames to accumulate btc. We get free signals which are posted every couple of hours, some trades have been quite fast and some others have taken as much as 4 hours.

Signals look like this one

On Fridays (today at 4pm CDT, in about 15 mins!!) they release a bunch of signals for everyone in the channel (not sure but I think every 10 minutes or so).


Glad to share this experience as I've been trying different trading methods and from what I've learned in trading choosing an approach that works for you and applying it consistently is a key for success, if you wanna check it out this is their discord Voodo crypto

If anything today is a great they to check out what this signals are about, as today we get a taste of what the paid membership is for 8 hours. If anyone has questions about how to trade these, I'd be happy to share what I've lerned so far



Cheers!!
I just hope that we are really approaching the end of this correction like you said. We are already in the month of December, but there is no going up, the price has been stable. Although I’m very happy because the price has managed to get out from the $3000 zone and now in $4000, hope it goes up from there. Let’s see how it would be before the end of this year.
18  Economy / Economics / Re: China is Back to BTC Business on: December 01, 2018, 06:30:58 AM
A little hidden news .Not advertised by Coindesk or any other western press
 Bitcoin is legal asset in China

China Lifts Bitcoin Ban; Individuals and Businesses Can Now Own Cryptocurrencies Legally

According to a recent report by CnLedger, the crypto ban is now a thing of the past in China, as virtual currencies have been legalized as a mode of payment to be accepted by people and business entities as. The Shenzen Court of International Arbitration was quoted as saying;

Instead of that news we are receiving scary news about regulation in USA and famous dead of bitcoin

https://www.btcnn.com/cryptocurrency-news/bitcoin-news/china-lifts-bitcoin-ban-individuals-and-businesses-can-now-own-cryptocurrencies-legally/

hope you are better now

And report from 3 november

 This week in crypto:

1. Bitcoin 10 year anniversary
2. Janet Yellen now owns Bitcoin
2. Ron Paul calls for no crypto tax
3. Bitstamp acquired by NXC
4. @binance signs up 40k in Uganda
5. Coinbase raised $300M
6. Morgan Stanley says crypto is institutional asset class

That doesn’t change anything at all, the price is still where it is. Even when they banned cryptocurrency in their country that seems to be when cryptocurrency started to progress and that was when we had the highest bull run with price almost getting to $20k. But I hope they contribute a lot and make the market to start growing back again, if this information is true.
19  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: BTC broke all major support lines, and the worse is yet to come. on: November 30, 2018, 06:37:46 AM
A lot of investors has been quitting, this is really frustrating as people keep losing money day by day. Bull run has been predicted a lot of times but what we see every time is not we expect, it’s always the opposite of everything and the price has dropped low to $3735. I don’t even think there will be bull run like some are still predicting on December. I’m looking forward to next year as someone once predicted.
20  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do Not Panic! on: November 30, 2018, 06:02:47 AM
Swiss Bitcoin ETF has been approved and SEC ETF will be approved in December and there is BAKKT coming in December 12th, Bitcoin will Bull Run this year, this price drop was a dump in order to push prices down than they will rebuy it and the price will rebounce very strongly forcing a bull run, otherwise people wont have force to push price high, after this rebounce everyone will talk about BTC and the bull run will be the longest in history(1BdgaR4mWNbDckDqnC1PqLxS26Y1PFiN4h)!
I don’t know if there is really going to be a Bull run this year, people have talked a lot of about that since this year began but it all never happened. As for the price, I don’t know if the current price of Bitcoin is really the lowest, it’s possible there is still going to be further decrease, but $3k isn’t much to lose for some people. And by the way, the price has bounced back to $3,800 now. Let’s see how it ends this year.
