It is very difficult to distinguish a scam project and not, several times I was deceived because I was too confident without doing research first, to reduce the risk of scam you should study the project team and see some ICO benchmarks to see the rating of the project.

There are several websites like whois.com to find out domain names and identify anyone, even though that doesn't guarantee you avoid scams but at least you can reduce the risk of participating in a scam project.

The price of Altcoin follows the price of Bitcoin, when the price of Bitcoin falls, Altcoin falls, when the price of Bitcoin rises, Altcoin rises. Their prices are interrelated and I don't see any way in which Altcoin will take over bitcoin. Bitcoin is the king who will not be defeated by all cryptocurrency in the next few decades. There are no other coins that can challenge Bitcoin now. Altcoin may continue to increase every now and then but there is no possibility that one of them might pursue Bitcoin or its market capitalization.

We must take the opportunity to gain big profits. I think newbies only think of benefiting from the bounty campaign and signature but after joining this forum and also knowing lots of ico they will realize that there are many ways that can get more profit by participating in ico or becoming a trader.
If you really have money now it's a good time to invest short or long term, buy at a low price and sell it again at a high price in the future or you just keep holding till the right time.

We have heard a lot of positive news but the price of bitcoin is different from what we expected. I don't think this is something normal and I don't know what really happened.
I think entering August, the price of bitcoin will stabilize in the range of $ 8000, but I happen that bitcoin has decreased and panic sell is not justified
we have to be patient again until September and hope the increase will continue until the end of the year

However, bitcoin is an extraordinary technological advancement, from bitcoin we take advantage of profits that we cannot get from the current currency. Many people say that bitcoin will die, but I think by the end of 2017, bitcoin has just entered a new phase that bitcoin is widely known to the public and just waiting for time to use bitcoin can be legalized and used for daily transactions. I found it to be a very trustworthy cryptocurrency and apart from all this, it is a very sustainable cryptocurrency so no doubt that nothing can stop bitcoin, it will surely end up with being declared as a central currency globally.

The current market situation is really worrying, especially a newbie like me. Rising and falling price movements are indeed a risk that must be faced in the cryptocurrency world. at present I am more restrained than selling tokens that I have, especially bitcoin. I prefer to buy coins that have the possibility of prices going up and doing short trades to get a little profit. We must be patient because the market will improve over the time.

Can you accompany the link that contains the news? or at least you tell where you know it.
There are some countries in Asia that allow bitcoin and some forbid it. But it should be noted that there are usually a number of things that are considered for the ban, whether temporary or permanent and the prohibition is about transactions and is not prohibited for commodities.

If we compare bitcoin with other coins it's clear that other coins are moving faster because other coins aren't as big as bitcoin.
At the current state of bitcoin it is still very difficult to compete even though there are already some coins that have their own uniqueness so that many are chosen by the community to use.
But it takes a long time to move faster through bitcoin now

I also belonged to that crazy person. News about bitcoin has been heard for a long time but many people have been interested in it for a few years. I am also disappointed why not invest in bitcoin when I have a lot of money. But I am not too disappointed because I have entered the cryptocurrency world in 2017 so I have gained a lot of knowledge and benefits. I think whether bitcoin will give shocking news again in the following year when bitcoin is still falling and not rising yet

Starbucks as one of the well-known companies that adopts a lot of technology and is open to the implementation of new technologies, which already has many branches and I think it will affect the circulation of bitcoin.
So in the future it is not impossible that more and more companies will adopt bitcoin as payment.

We have heard a lot of bitcoin price forecasts in 2018, and almost all of these predictions have very high prices, seeing our current market conditions it is impossible to reach prices above $ 20,000.
But one thing that I believe is that bitcoin is not time to die.

Banks and bitcoin are two opposites. Banks become intermediaries between buyers and sellers to be able to make transactions easier and from there the bank takes profit of each customers. Different from bitcoin that wants to make transactions easier and cheaper without going through intermediaries and making users have full rights to their transactions.

For bitcoin legalization I think it is necessary to establish a new department in the government and they will work with the bank to create a new payment system.

This is very interesting news, Thailand is a developing country that we know Thailand can also be called the white elephant country.
Thailand has unveiled the details of the country’s regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and initial coin offerings, including licensing requirements, fees, and a list of seven approved cryptocurrencies.

If Thailand succeeded in exploiting the legality of bitcoin, I think there will be more countries that follow this policies, especially countries in Southeast Asia.

Bitcoin - and other decentralised cryptocurrencies - allow people to trade directly with each other, cutting out the need for a middleman which, in traditional commerce, is a bank. Banks generally charge fees for doing anything with money, even just holding on to it. That's because the banks have created a level of trust that transactions pass smoothly and everything is recorded and accounted for correctly.


The key to its success is something called the blockchain. The blockchain is a means of solving the double-spending problem: which is that because the currency is digital it is open to being copied and spent more than once - something banks stop with physical currency.

However, the blockchain acts as a digital ledger, whereby every single transaction (called a block) is securely linked together using cryptography and encryption. It's verifiable, available to everyone who owns Bitcoin and is immune to fraud and hacking - unlike centralised banks. It enables one digital wallet (that can be stored on a phone) to directly connect with another securely and process a transaction. As such, it removes the need for any kind of traditional bank or regulator.


This makes sense bitcoin will be a rival to banks and the government Read more https://www.mirror.co.uk/

Anything could happen. But I can not imagine the world of cryptocurrency without bitcoin, because we can see the expansion of bitcoin that is very far away. Exchange, Mining and etc they exist naturally in the presence of bitcoin. If it can happen it will definitely require a very important reason, at least there are at least 2 coins that can compete with bitcoin is ethereum and ripple although their distance and with bitcoin is still very far away.

I do not know why bitcoin is banned in bangladesh, in my country bitcoin is only forbidden for transactions but to make commodities it does not matter.

I am looking for information about banned bitcoin dibanglades through https://news.bitcoin.com/bangladesh-authorities-hunt-bitcoin-traders/ there are  several major state institutions will begin ramping up efforts to crack down on bitcoin adoption among Bangladeshi citizens.

1. Bangladesh Central Bank Warns Financial Institutions Against Cryptocurrency Users
2. Bangladeshi Authorities on “Hunt” for Bitcoin Traders
3. Cryptocurrency Use Prohibited in Bangladesh

Indeed, not all tokens from bounty can not be sold because there is no market to trade them. Even if you sell it in a centralized market then the price will be very cheap compared to the price of ICO.
I think if this happens it can be said that the project you have followed is a scam. I do not know the procedure needed to launch token into the market so that many tokens are abandoned or indeed the project is not running successfully.

The market situation is still not good, I allocate a few dollars to buy altcoin and sell it when the price moves up and buy it back when the price goes down.
I'm still waiting for the right time to sell bitcoin, hopefully in August there will be good news and end this difficult time.
I am still very confident that the progress of blockchain has just begun and can still be used as well as good for our life.

I have read from https://news.bitcoin.com/worlds-top-10-bitcoin-friendly-countries/
These are the worlds Top 10 Bitcoin-Friendly Countries :

1. Estonia
2. The United States
3. Denmark
4. Sweden
5. South Korea
6. The Netherlands
7. Finland
8. Canada
9. UK
10. Australia

Openness to new technology and also technology-friendly Government with one of the highest internet penetration rates in the world, Estonia is well positioned to be a place where a cryptocurrency users can certainly feel welcome.

Yes, that is true. Although this is a nightmare for the government as well as the bank. They should be able to realize that the growing public interest they can use to take part of the profits. I think it's just a matter of time for cryptocurrency to be accepted in different countries. But even then I think the physical money we use will not die for the next few decades.
