with new bct update to become a full member need 100 merits and i still have only 10 merits. What is the best way to earn merits
The simplest thing you can do is make content that people are actually interested in and it worth someone rewarding you for your efforts. This kind of thread won't earn you anything in most situations (unless someone wants to be a contrarian for my post here), if you're making a giant database and keeping it uploaded with information people actually want to see then you can be rewarded for your efforts. This goes for the various loan/scam list threads that people make, among other things. There's a lot you can actually do, it just comes down to quality. A thread OP with a quality piece of information or something people agree with will likely receive merits, and likely a number of them, since a lot of people will see it.

TL;DR Make good content and start good threads with stuff people actually want to know.
I agree, I think theres no short cut in earning merit. You need to work for it. A piece of advise buddy , if english is not your first language and you find difficulty in speaking of it. You better read more because it will enhance your vocabulary that will really help you to provide a good and quality post. That can attract some people to give you a merit.

Bitcoin investment is worth it because it can really bring you a good income. Aside from that, bitcoin give an opportunity to every one to sustain their need in everyday life living. It offers you to have a financial freedom and stability.
I think they are just saying that because not yet experience the help that bitcoin can give.
23  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why almost everybody suggest to hold? on: February 08, 2018, 09:39:17 PM
Hi all,
I have a really simple question or so seems to me cause i am a crypto noob.
I really do not understand why almost everybody suggest to hold when there is a dip or correction.

With my simple noob logic i think that when there is a dip someone could sell at the start of the dip or do something else (e.g. buy tether y i know the rumors or something similar anyway) and then buy again later when the correction has stop or decrease.

Obviously no one knows when there is a many days dip and when it will end in order to buy but even so one can save much money just for sell and buy in between even without predict the absolute start and end of a dip.

I hold as everyone suggests but i now realise that if i had sell even a couple days before even yesterday-and not right after the start of the dip and buy lets say now i would have save a bunch of money relatively with what i am doing now which is hold.

I really must be missing something since i am crypto noob orelse i cannot explain why everyone suggest hold while i fear that real pros are doing the oppossite.

I would like to ask only experienced people who know what they are talking about to give their opinions cause i am fed up reading pseudo crypto pros everywhere around. I bet many of you understand what i mean. Everybody has become a crypto pro . Well i am a crypto noob and i need your heads up.

Thank you for your time reading this and excuse my lame English.

Regards.
In my own perspective, they keep on holding bitcoin because of the low value of it in the market. And you will just encounter loss if ever you sell itbin the current price. Because they have their faith that bitcoin will recover and get back to the track of its previous price. They are just keeping their support in bitcoin , they know that whenever they will sell their coin it will really hurt thr value and becomes more lower.

Where can I buy some coins with the cheapest price? Too many exchanger & trading sites out there, you don't know which is the best one.
Coinmarketcap, is one of the best exchanger site. It has lower value than any other site. It have also a lotvof option here. You will see the different coin value, and the graph of it movement. Its really can help you decide on what coin will good for an investment even if it is for a long term or short term.
25  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How long do you think will the dip continue for? on: February 06, 2018, 09:41:52 PM
Chinese New Year? End of February? March to fully stabilize?

Unfortunately, no one can say for certain how this bearish trend will last. It may continue for quite some time now because of a lot of negatives surrounding the ecosystem. During the Mt. Gox hack, if my memory serves me right, it took quite long because we see the price bounce back. But the likelihood of bitcoin recovering is 100%, its that there's so much FUD plus the government relentless regulations putting too much pressure on investors to pour and flock the market once again.

They say that after the Chinese Lunar New Year, they(Chinese) will go enter the picture again because they have to make money at this point. But this remains to be seen. I really do hope that by mid February we should be on our way to recovery. Let's see how it goes though.

No one can predict the exact duration for the recovery. But it will take lot of time to gain back the trust of the panicked investors who invested when the price was damn high and then lost their money. There is a need of some positive news regarding bitcoins, it may give some courage to the new investors or else the situation will be same for several months.
Yes no one could actually say when this actually stop. But hopefully it happen soon because many holder and investors are already loosingbthere money because of the fall down in bitcoin.  Almost 70%of its previous price fall, its very alarming for every one but they are still hoping that bitcoin will surpass this struggle.

For the sake of ranking up many people are becoming cheaters, so the results instead of ranking up they will incurred of warning or if they are totally guilty they will become banned. Why don't you try to grow up and takes merit as inspiration, to improve post quality. Good job sir you caught the list of some people abusing merit system, keep it up.
27  Other / Meta / Re: People might sell they're merit points. on: February 02, 2018, 11:04:45 PM
Hello guys i saw some newbie has a merit points haha.what do you think?they buy it or not?because anyone who had merit points can be transfer to other people or sell them to other people.
A lot of changes happen in this forum lately due to some issues of shit posting of some people here. It was a good idea to clean this forum so that it would really function on its purpose which is to become a real 'forum.' I've seen lately the +merit button and read about it. Merit now is more valuable than just the number of activities or post. It was also a really good idea to count the person's contribution in this forum. But it is also possible that high rank members here can sell their merit points to those who wants to rank up.
Well I think theymos already prepared for that issue. I think he already had a plan for those people who will be caught abusing the new merit system. He definitely have the consiquences for example is being banned in the forum or giving a red trust.
My point is theymos made it to revive this forum, that's mean he will not let people to ruin his solution.
28  Economy / Economics / Re: do you really like crypto coin? on: January 31, 2018, 10:01:53 PM
i like it a lot because this crypto i change how to make study hard.. like when im schooling before, and now same crypto before you move forward in all coin make sure study first. in crypto i make profitable income he even not much. also all ico token its like a lot also they also make your profit if you joined thier project.
Yes ofcourse. Because crypto coin gives me a lot of opportunity. It give me a chance to have a source of additional income that really bring me a great help because it sustain my daily needs. Although I have a day time job, I can still handle to work in crypto. Because it doesnt require to be a full time trader or full time miner. You'll just need an enough knowledge for you to contribute.
29  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Merit not for sale! on: January 30, 2018, 01:52:41 PM
every person is responsible for every merit they have, no one knows for what they use it, in order to get the merit we are required to make a quality post so that people acknowledge and give merit to the post, but there are some irresponsible people who sell merit them for a few dollars, they do not care about the quality of posts they have, by buying they think it will be fast for the future they reach the desired rank, so there is no need for any achievements they do
Well definitely you have a point. After admin theymos make a solution for this dying forum , there are still a lot of people who continue to wreck this forum. Because they are choose to sell their merit rarher than giving it to the person who deserve it. But like what other always say' those who will be caught abusing the merit system will be punish.
30  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Having fun with crypto. on: January 30, 2018, 10:28:11 AM
the person who have technical and programming background could create coin.But this can gave solution for real world problem which is currently existing. If can achieve this target this coin is not a shit any more. try be unique and make the market for that.

I'm also try to create ETH based coin for educational purpose. Wink
These existing coins have a different and unique characteristics in which if you could take any of their attribute and put it in a single coin i'm sure everyone would be interested in it. But it will take years to discover them all i guess, since Bitcoin itself has a lot of problems that needed to be solved. I wanted to create one too for educational purposes but i guess i can't make it anymore due to my life priorities. I will just gonna wait for the right person to do it for me someday.
I think bitcoin is still better among any other coin so far. But im not against in launching new coin as long as it has it capability to be a better coin someday then why not we try to support it. Since there's nothing to loose if we try to put a little invest in this coin. Nobody know maybe someday it will boom and become promising.
31  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: January 30, 2018, 09:32:31 AM
I wonder who the first one to 15 million merits will be Wink

I like this change a lot. Hopefully we'll see an increase in post quality.
Though its very appropriate, its getting harder to be promoted to higher rank. Of course, quality post should always be considered and  to avoid spam.
Well I think this new merit system start by theymos will really help this forum to be get alive with a good quality post. Because many of the users will be obligated to write a knowledgeable and informative comment in order to have a merit. So that those people who will rank up was been screened by this new system.
32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: alll coin going down. what should we do? on: January 30, 2018, 05:58:31 AM
hi guyz. can you help me that i have know nothing about blood wash term  Undecided

i have got some btc that i bougth when its 11.5k usdt. should i keep btc and hodl or buy some alt coins?
My advise is continue to hold your btc. Because I guarantee to you that it will rises again maybe not by now but in the next three months it will. So be patience and continue to hold BTC. And if you still have another amount that can be use to invest try another coin like ethereum , it also good to keep. It will also give you a huge profit while you were waiting for your BTC to pump again.
33  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: January 30, 2018, 03:06:14 AM
better to invest in bitcoin, gold maybe more secure, but bitcoin has more potential to grow

saving money in the bank, will only mean losing them in the long-term with the current high inflation
Definitely I agree. Because if you just save your money in the bank, your just letting your money to sleep in there without any benefits in return. Unlike when you invest it in the something that you really sure that will be successfull in the future then you will have an income for it. Or later on it will be your huge asset someday. Because you take the risk of investing it to somewhere.
34  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Hacking is the Big Problem on: January 30, 2018, 01:18:23 AM
You don't. Hacks target the exchanges wallet by finding exploits and not the user accounts separately. If you want your funds to be safe, use exchanges for trading only and withdraw to your personal wallet.

I love it when people say this. How the heck do you 'trade' if you keep your coins in the wallets... You don't.

IF you're holding, then yes, keep it in your wallet. If you trade it makes no sense.

What I meant is do the trade and withdraw instantly. Exchanges were created for trading and not for holding your funds. Unless you are day trading, I see no reason on why you should keep your money on an exchange for a anything more then a few minutes. Trading with individuals on forums etc. is another option to avoid using centralized exchange.
Well I get his point. It is true that it is much better that if you are not going to trade your coin, then its better to encash it and save to your official bank account. To secure your money from the unauthorized personnor hacker. You can just hold your coin in the wallet only if you do trading because it is the usually needed.
35  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: January 29, 2018, 11:29:18 PM
I have tried to think what goes through my mind when ever I am trying to place a bet. I think something strange do happen to me and that is I always have this thinking that what if I lose, how am I going to feel! I have never want to lose in my mind I want to win always but I think this is impossible. Gamblers here did you always want to win all your bet? If you win all how will the gambling company makes profits?
Of course everyone wanted to win. They are taking the risk of gambling because they are thinking that they can double their money in the fastest way. So , definitely every one who join in gambling wanted to earn and to have a lot of money. No one like to loss their money. But we didn't control it because gambling is a 50/50 chances of winning and lossing.
36  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Why are transactions much faster now? on: January 29, 2018, 09:55:38 PM
Today I set a transaction with the lowest fee and I was warned with a notice that with such a fee, the transaction could take days to be confirmed. I confirmed it because I wasn't in a hurry at all. That was about a couple of hours ago and it already has 8 confirmations.

I've checked mempool's unconfirmed transactions and there are about 72.000 whereas that figure hasn't been below 200.000 for quite a while.

Any specific reason for that? Has the price anything to do with it?
Maybe its because the miners of the said blockchain can't handle properly the number of transaction that has been send in a particular day. That's why it takes some delay for the confirmation that cause long period of tine before its has been transfer. And because you paid a low transaction fee, then definitely they will not prioritize your transaction against to those people who paid higher transaction fee.
37  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why is bitcoin price so stable in 2018? on: January 29, 2018, 02:03:37 PM
What do you think is happening?

Is people hoding less their coins?

Is there more manipulation by big whales, speculators or big institutional investors trying to profit the flavour of the moment?

I feel that there are big players "pumping and dumping" in order to manipulate the market to stabilize price and "control" in a certain way the price fluctuation.

Obviously bitcoin is very dangerous for our old corrupted economy, don't you think that in acertain way there's an unusual stop of the past few months trend?
After reaching $20k there's a correction to $17k and then price stabilizes at 11-12k with mini-dips that last seconds before going uptrend...

In my opinion the key factor could be also that if bitcoin reaches $30-50k then it will be very difficult for newcomers to buy bitcoin for buying altcoins in the exchanges.

So that stabilizing the price to an affordable $10k for a while could be a way to engage more people to bitcoinworld.

Or maybe it's all ok, there's no manipuation, it is a stanby before the big run to $50k-100k. Then newcomers will start buying and trading in Ethereum or Litecoin, because at the moment there aren't exchanges accepting fiat money, you have to enter and buy your altcoins directly with cryptocurrencies...

Which in your opinion are the main reasons?
In my opinion , the main reason why the value of bitcoin this past few weeks are stable between 11-12k is because the supplies of BTC in the market are enough. There is no shortage happening that cause the bitcoin to rise. And because all the demand are being sustain by the bitcoin, there will be no huge movement happen. And thats what make the bitcoin more safe than before.
38  Economy / Economics / Re: dropping value on: January 28, 2018, 10:11:53 PM
I can't believe people are making threads about this.

As long as bitcoins has excisted, prices have gone up and down. It's in the nature of bitcoin. If supply is larger then demand, then the price will drop until demand is larger then supply, when the price will rise again.

You shouldn't convert you bitcoin. Just hold on, and wait until the price will rise again (which will happen).
Definitely agree. If you really know the nature of bitcoin you will not get afraid everytime the value of it fall down. Because the volatility of bitcoin is what makes it more popular. And it what makes it more unique than in other currency.
So if the price of bitcoin fall down , be glad because you have an opportunity of buy and hold it till it recovers its past price.
39  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: better profit on: January 28, 2018, 01:24:06 PM
Theres a lot of option on how you coud earn bitcoin. You can do mining, but it need a huge capital because of the expensive electric bill. You can also join in some signiture campaign where you will have a weekly salary. Although it was a small amount but I think its less risk and more sure than gambling and trading.
40  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How to make your project successful? on: January 28, 2018, 10:40:24 AM
There ate a lot of ICO projects in Bitcoin talk. And all we want here is to make our project successful.

That is why we launch bounty campaigns, visit blockchain events, pay big money to media an so on.

However, it's not a secret that the best ads is a world of mouth. But it is too difficult to make people talking to their friends about your project.

If your ICO includes event organisation, there is the way how you can make people talking about you. KickCity is building a decentralized reward-based event marketing protocol on blockchain. Having worked with many event organizers, it became obvious that their biggest problem is selling tickets or getting registration. We are solving this problem by creating incentives. Rewarding anyone to promote events. This simply means that users can invite their friends and when their friends buy tickets, they earn Tokens (Cryptocurrency), while the user who bought ticket gets a kind of cash back — motivation to buy more tickets on KickCity platform. KCY tokens can be used to buy tickets on the platform and can also be converted to FIAT.

In your opinion, what can help to make a project successful?
Choose the best team and campaign manager that will indorse the project. I think, this is the best thing that you can do if you are going to have a project. Because the proper advertising and promoting the project will encourage a lot of investors to be come in the project that you are running. Aside from that you should also need to earn the trust of your client. And im aure it will bring your project a big success.
