This is one of the first questions I get to be asked when talk to people about BTC, how did I get in?

My story s simple, in late 2012, I had an extra PC and I started browsing make money online forums to find something to do with that machines. People suggested botting, social signals etc., and one day someone suggested to mine BTC. I got into mining and have been into this beautiful economy ever since.

What about you?

So, what do you think will be the price on that day? Are we going to be happy or are we going to be disappointed and why?

Where do you guys store reward funds for altcoin faucets? I see that faucetbox holds funds for a few major coins, BTC, LTC, Dash, etc. What about the rest? How does this work?

Hey guys,

can we sum up services which allow people to buy Bitcoin using their credit cards in one single BT thread? I would really like to hear from people who have been actually using these services and what is your experience with verification and the entire process.

So, what s the best way to buy BTC using CC?

Hey guys,

is there a way to delete abandoned thread on BTT. I am a member of DMD Diamond dev team and since this coin was initially developed by a dev who abandoned it before we took over, there is still a BTT thread about Diamond set up by that initial dev. The problem is that the thread is indexed by Google and gets shown as the first search for Diamond coin keywords. That old thread is not functional, none of the links work and the person who set it up is not reachable, he has not been present on BTT for almost 2 years.

In general, the tread provides no accurate info, links re dead and I d like to know if it s possible to delete it or change it in any way. If not, what s the official policy on dead BTT threads, when do they expire?

Thx

Has anyone found any interesting BTC Black Friday deals yet? If yes, pls post the link.

Since BTC price started going up, all I see is almost every other altcoin being sold and dumped. At some point people re going to switch to altcoins and these are going to start getting pumped as well. This is what happened last time BTC went up and it s gonna happen again.

The main question is what price BTC needs to reach for alt to start facing some upward price pressures again.

I say about $600+. What do you think?

Hey guys,

I know most of us expect to see BTC price going up mid next year due to block halving. Personally, I ve been expecting this to take place February of March 2016 and then continue well after the halving.

However, we can see that BTC price has started slowly increasing since mid September 2015. 

Is this the beginning of a new trend? Will we see another price spike or just a gradual price increase? Maybe nothing is going to change at all but common logic suggests that the price goes up if the demand stays constant and supply halves, which WILL happen.

What do you think?

Hey guys,

I am about to order one of these and would like to know what would be the best one to select. I do search data about fees and the price of the card, I can look this up by myself. I would like to hear opinions from people who actually own and use these cards. How easy is to load BTC? Is the card accepted everywhere? Have you had any problems buying online and after all, what s the best buy in your opinion and why?
Thx a lot.

We ve all seen recent BTC and alts dumps caused by global instability, Chinese exchanges crash, oil price drop, BTC vs BTC XT issue, etc.

The question is, how do you manage your portfolio during these stormy periods? Do you differentiate between BTC and alts, if yes, what is your favorite ratio? Do you buy when there s blood in the water? Do you plan to switch to something else? How do you make these kind of decision? What do you base them on?

Thx

So, if you had to select only 1 single BTC related investment to put 5 BTC into it, what would that be?

I know a lot of people re going to say there are no safe and sustainable BTC investments but I strongly disagree. Once you exclude HYIPs and ponzies, you can do well in the crypto world.
What would you choose and why?

Hey guys,

I ve got a lot of experience with PoS, been involved into staking for almost a year. I strongly believe as soon as KnC produces these solar powered 16nm miners, PoW mining diff s gonna skyrocket so much and the only people who ll be able to continue mining are whales and ASIC producers. This means PoS and staking will take the role of mining for ordinary home miners. All in all, I think getting into staking is a smart thing to do.

Regarding coin selection, one needs to be very careful when choosing which coins to stake

A few things to consider:

1 ) How old is the coin and how long is their rollout plan? I personally choose coins at least 1 year old, possibly 2 years. If the coins s been around that long, this means there is a devoted dev team behind it and not only people who want to cash out and run. Coin rollout plan is related to how long in the future they plan to introduce new stuff and develop the coin. If there is a long term plan posted by the dev team on their pages, this is something to consider.

2) Premine. If there is premine, avoid the coin. These coins are generally set up by their dev teams to push the price up and then unload their premined coins and run.

3) Staking rate. I choose coins with up to 60-80% stake rate per year max. Those with 500-1000%, well this simply is not sustainable. Again, I m searching for coins I can keep holding and profiting from them in 2-5 years time.

4) Inflation control and the total number of coins available. This is very important. A good PoS coins MUST have a great way to keep supply and the number of coins under control. Coins with unlimited supply or coins with max supply of 1000000000000+ are usually not a good choice. Coins with medium quantity and high market capitalization are the best option.

5) Market capitalization, that is the number of coins available x the price. This shows the real stength of the coin, especially if this market cap s been rising over time. This means the coin s becoming more and more expensive, under condition the quantity s under control.

6) Liquidity. There s no point of holding a coin which you cannot sell. Generally, anything around 2BTC per day is satisfactory. The more the better.

7) Home page. If the home page is non existent or very amateurish, this might mean the coin is usually one man team or lacking a sufficient financial support to develop a professional home page. Who wants to invest into a venture without a home page containing the most important info. Transparency is very important.

My favorite coins, based on all these recommendations is DMD Diamond coin.
Here is the page if someone s interested: https://bit.diamonds/
Here is also Bittrex page: https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-DMD

The quanitity s only 4.38 mill, the price went up almost 100% compared to two months ago and the dev team s very active and honest.
There is a nice cloud mining promotion on their website and annual PoS interest rate is 25%. This means if you hold and stake 100 coins, u get to another 25 per year as interest.
Here is the link: https://bit.diamonds/community/index.php/topic,113.0.html

Again, I m a bit biased towards DMD Diamond since I hold it for a long time and it has never disappointed me. There are several other interesting coins which satisfy most of criteria I ve posted here and I do consider differentiation important.

Update: I have also invested into Flycoin recently. Fly is a coin with a lot of innovations, if you re into PoS, I suggest to take a look, especially anti-dump and Superfly options.  
Here is the main thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1316737.0

I hope this helps. Do not hesitate to contact me in case anyone s got more questions on the topic.

The title says it all. Shoot.

Thx

Hey guys,

I ve been playing with DMD Diamond coins for some time and they have set up an interesting promotional offer recently.

Basically, there is an open auction run every single day, you can bid 0.1 BTC and once you win, you immediately get 100 DMD back to you, which is 0.06 BTC. So, in essence, you immediately get back 60% of your investment. Since these auctions are run daily, it s not a big problem to win in.

It s important to mention they do not run their own cloud but they use these investments to buy Hashnest cloud miners and pay you dividends on a daily basis in DMD. Basically, this cloud assistance service is envisaged for people who have no time/knowledge to deal with cloud investments and want to get daily payout in their DMD wallet without dealing with the market, following prices, etc.


So, to be clear, if you invest 0.1 BTC into their cloud, you get 3 things in this combo package:

1) immediately 100 DMD back to you, these are worth 0.06 BTC, so 60% immediate ROI. DMD Diamond s traded on Crypts and Bittrex.
 
2) daily dividend paid out in DMD, depending on the size of your cloud investment

3) DMD Diamond stakes at 25% annually, so DMD coins in your wallet give you additional 25% annual interest rate.


As always, before investing, do your own due diligence but these guys are 100% honest and legit. I ve been with them for about 5 months and I m quite happy. So, if you think this is a decent offer, test it with 0.1 DMD, I think you ll be happy too.


Here are the links:

Home page - http://bit.diamonds/

Cloud auction - https://bit.diamonds/community/index.php/topic,113.0.html


As I ve said, this is a promotional offer, it s not a product they ll be constantly offering.

Update on promotion:

starting on June 16, 2015, because of increased DMD price,
the bounty will be 0.06 divided by cryptsy DMD BTC sellorder price
For example, if the price is 0.00060, the bounty is 0.06/0.00060= 100 DMD and so on.

https://bit.diamonds/community/index.php/topic,113.0.html

Still 60% ROI returned immediately.


Update Dec 2015: There is some new stuff currently in progress.

Bitcoin gets a price ticker on New York Stock Exchange and the price does not move?

I really do not understand how is this possible.

I am glad to see BTC is going to become a classic stock market traded commodity, like oil, gold or corn. However, all these commodities are EXTREMELY sensible to good/bad news.
BTC, still nothing.

I know it s still too early to think this way since traders have not invested into BTC to be able to move the price due to these great news but still, not a single $1, price increase, not a single one.

Hey there guys,

I see a lot of people and BTC devs talk about the size of BTC blockchain as one of the main issues to be solved in the future. What about adding PoS to BTC so it becomes both PoW and PoS coin?

Since mining difficulty is going to go up more and more, only large miners with access to cheap electricity and a lot of capital will stay in the game.

With PoS, even small miners would be able to stay in the game and benefit from holding BTC. I agree, holding BTC does not help crypto adoption and does not bring new retailers but it might bring back profitability into the game which is one of the main reasons people would accept and invest into Bitcoin.

I m not talking about high PoS, something moderate 3% a year, max.

I ve personally invested into a lot of PoW and PoS coins, DMD Diamond is my favorite, and I would like to see BTC getting some shiny new traits as well. After all, in tech world, it is all about constant innovation.

What do you think about this idea CEO of 21 shared with the public?

Would introducing BTC vendors, besides consumers and merchants help BTC adoption and price increase?

http://www.coindesk.com/21-ceo-balaji-srinivasan-bitcoin-job-fair/

Most of cloud mining services and most of ordinary miners are entering the red zone of potential shut down when BTC goes under $220.
Comments? Where do we go from here?

So, if you come back in 2009, how would you structure your BTC related investments. Please post only scenarios which are financially viable. For example, I would take my $7 mil and buy every BTC domain known to man is not going to work. Only stuff you were able to do at that point in time pls.

Let us hear how would you make your millions in case you had a time machine to come back to 2009.
