There is nothing suspicious about divesting when you see a high roller. What IS suspicious is when somebody divests relatively high amount just few hours before the high roller appears. But it can be just coincidence.

i'm trying the monthly subscription but after my payment I've been invited to slack and not dropbox folder. There is some shared file but it's almost week old... Where can I find link to the actual file? Thanks

Trump is not God Almighty but is really unpredictable and holds big power in his hands (just look at past weeks). He can't destroy the global market single handedly but sure he can destabilize it

You've missed the january whales but why should it stop you from investing?

So you're basically saying that in 6 months the BTC price will double or tripple? Even if he'd bought them when they cost $800, it would have to climb to $2k till summer. Not likely to happen

I don't think BTC will go down to $700 or up to $2000 in near the future unless there is some major event like hard fork or quick mass adoption. I hope we will see slow and stable increase of value and not those quick rallys with following price drop.

So you would rather keep some stagnating altcoin instead of skyrocketing bitcoin? If bitcoin price was multiplied by 10, it would be still perfectly usable for everyday spendings. You would just put one more zero after the decimal coma. Staying with your analogy - you wouldn't use silver, platinum or other precious metals neither

Although (and maybe beacuse) I use gmail account to log on sites which support it, I wouldn't use it for any BTC site, especially for gambling.

I like the concept of anonymous sign up offered by crypto-games.net and others

And why would you sell it if you knew its price will go up even more? You sell your altcoins when you expect long stagnation or price drop otherwise you would hold it. When somebody buys it from you he ends up with something useless (almost zero market with the stagnating altcoin) or straight in loss.

Also many unexperienced traders jump the pump and dump train too late and are doomed to be in loss

Are small investments profitable? Yes. You usually get some relative share and not a fixed amount. And 10% profit is still 10% profit wheather you invest 0.01BTC or 100BTC.
Do they make sense? Not so much. You aren't in control of the invested money and they can't be used for immediate spent if necessary.

Most gambling sites offer around 30% annual profit. 0.01BTC = $10. +30% -> $3 per year. Profit? Yes. Worth it? Not at all...

Only small part of traders make enough money to be considered their single income. It comes with patience, intuition, experience and little bit of luck. If you're new to trading, you will probably end up in red numbers at the begining. 'Cause if somebody makes money, somebody else will lose them - trading is not a charity. And beginners are those who expericenced traders feed on most of the time.

Bots are usually useless if you don't know how to set up them. If it was that easy, everyone would have his own BOT and trade, ending up in zero profit for eveyrbody.

I don't pay any fees when sending money to account in the same bank as I have and the transaction is instant. If the account is in different bank, it takes one business day (still zero fee)

According to that, I'm willing to pay $0.1 for standart transactions and $1 when I really need confirmation in next block

To be honest most altcoins are useless and serves only for speculative trading. If you make a lot of money on alt trading than somebody had to "lose" the same amount. Also many new altcoins were proven just to be scams...

I think there's no need for more than +-5 altcoins. Some could be a test field for BTC incoming features, others could provide more anonymity and some could focus on just specific group of people/market and better suit their needs. It took many years for bitcoin to be where it is now (accepted by such a big companies as Micorsoft or Valve) and no altcoin can surpass it anytime soon, if ever...

You can hide your BTC income only if it never leaves bitcoin ecosystem. That means that there would have to be someone accepting bitcoin in every possible kind of service. Otherwise you must convert BTC to FIAT and this can be easily regulated. Even nowdays you have to verify your account on most exchanges.

Also as others said, it's not OK to evade taxes. The state doesn't keep the money, it pays public services from it - roads, infrastructure, healthcare, education...

When somebody sends BTC with not apropriate fee, especially when there is huge back-log and I have to wait more than a day till the transaction is confirmed

It's already late to make the biggest profit but not too late to make decent profit by buying now and holding it for a while. I don't know if the price will shoot up anytime soon but the long-time upward trend is pretty obvious.

Once you're fully verified with legit ID and play by Paypal's ToS, you shouldn't be worried about your money there. Sure, somebody can do a chargeback on you but then it's the person who scammed you and not paypal. I've been using it for quite a long time without problem.

Nobody's dumb enough to sell 1 million BTC in one batch after holding it for years. It's pretty clear that it creates price barrier and everybody would undercut him. Better strategy would be selling for example 20 BTC per week and on different exchanges. Not suspicious at all, making more than enough money for living and rest of his bitcoins would still increase on value considering price would go up.

I think that many traders have set up stop-limit orders and in this kind of situation it starts the domino effect when one order tiggers another resulting in quick price drop and then panic selling
