You are not going to get profits by mining the crypto currencies in the bear market so you need enough capital to withstand until bull run begins for your running expenses.I heard Monero is one of the coin give profits while mining.
The article would have actually be posted during the bull market, because like you and every other person has said, it is even getting seriously difficult for the few miners we have on ground now, though crypto needs more miners but lots of miners are not willing to even engage now because of the cost implication it is having on them as a result of the bear market.

The last time I tried monero was mining through PC mining software but I stopped as a result of the low processors of my laptop the hash rate was low, it’s been very long though, I don’t know of their process or if it’s still profitable.

People who buy the IEO by Binance, most of them are not investors. They do not buy tokens for the project, but because of the opportunity to x5, x10 their properties.
No one come to the cryptocurrency market because of good projects, everyone comes here to make money. No matter it's a good or bad project, if there is an investment opportunity which may give a good profit,  you will also invest there. Moreover, binance will not accept all of the ICO project in their launchpad. It's all about reputation.
Well, many people still go after good projects because it is only a good project that will guarantee you of the future of your investment, many people you talk about that comes to the exchange to make money are traders because they are there to trade irrespective of the coin and take advantage of the market but a long term investor must definitely looks for a good project since his money will be tied down for a very long term, these are the people that will see lots of sense in the binance Launchpad project.
4043  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can some fraudulent people be discouraged from using cryptocurrency ? on: March 19, 2019, 08:05:16 AM
The few points you mentioned above are part of the main reasons why block chain technology was created, a system of decentralization that provides anonymity for its users and without the interference of third party in which the advantages of these system is far more than the disadvantages, the number 2 you frowned at is just 1 of its little disadvantages which there is no system ever created on earth that is 100% perfect.

Even through the centralize market, a lot of people still finds it easy to conceal large sum of money without being traced. So I really doubt if anything can be done to stop fraudulent people from using the system, just like when it rains or sun, it rain & sun on both evil and bad, the most important thing is to look at the benefit of the system to our own daily life and guard of our investment or money jealously through any mean we can use.
4044  Economy / Speculation / Re: ??? DECISION TIME FOR BITCOIN?!?! 4k or 3.5k?!?! ??? on: March 17, 2019, 08:32:12 PM
Yeah, 4k range seems to be the new norm for bitcoin. It went up to 4200 range couple weeks ago and even when it dropped it didn't dropped too further down this time, normally when it dropped it hit places like 3500 and a bit under that but this time around it was mostly staying above 3800 which means it didn't get away too far from 4000 range.

I wanted to buy a bit at around 3500 so I could sell when it eventually hits over 4000 again but couldn't get it since it didn't reached that low.

Hopefully we will see it go even higher because if we could find a way to stay around these levels it makes it easier to go higher, think about it which one is easier going from 3400 to 4200 or going from 4000 to 4500 ? One is about 800 dollar difference the other is just 500 and if we could manage that than we can break this cycle and finally go up.
4045  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin remain above $4000 this time around? on: March 17, 2019, 08:02:07 PM
It feels like its going to be a common thing for us though. I can't bet that we will stay above 4000 but I feel like that 4000 going to be more common than we all know. Normally lets face it we have spent most of our price at around 3500 range (less than 4000 I mean) for the past 4 months or so, now that we are here it looks like we will not be going down that much again and come back above 4000 a lot quicker this time.

I mean we have hit above 4000 around 5 or 6 times in the past 4 months or so, each time we dropped back to sub 3500 levels and we tried to recover heavily. This time it looks like we will not need that, and since we do not need to come back from so much down maybe this time when it goes up it can go up above 4200 levels for the first time creating a bullish trend? Who knows, lets hope so.
4046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think a "winning mindset" can get you what you want while gambling? on: March 16, 2019, 10:05:52 AM
I have met various personalities and few of them guided me on how to win in gambling. Those guys told me that "If you have got a winning mindset with no negativity in your mind, you are about to start a journey where you will see higher chances of winning over losing."

Is it like meditation where you must focus on your goal and make yourself prepared for the game before starting to play it? I had good experiences till now while following this strategy. It doesn't mean I never lose but chances of winning are really high.
Everything in life can be achieved by having a positive mindset and winnings in gambling is no exception. Nature itself obeys that rule and there is a general saying that "You are what you think". There are times we feel we entered into gambling with a winning mindset but found out we are losing, I think that Loosing period is just a phase that is dragging us closer to the day of winning.

So, in my opinion, having a positive mindset is the first principle to have before going into gambling. At the same time, positive mindset will keep you trying out with gambling regardless of losses there which may lead to severe addictions too at some point of time. Balancing everything will be the key here.
4047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: tell us about your latest gambling experiences on: March 16, 2019, 08:58:30 AM
My latest gambling experience was on the last match between Juventus and Atletico Madrid.
It was actually my first time gambling and I would say that I am still in shock at how I was so lucky on that day.

I read a post on this forum where the OP needed advise because he wanted to play huge money on the game, so drawing from the comments I deduced the match would be in favor of Juventus, So, I predicted and won. I am still very surprised how this happened because am not very good with sport.
4048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Thoughts on Video game gambling addiction? on: March 15, 2019, 05:56:27 PM
This is definitely one of the good advise I heard specially for those who are still a beginner or who just started from gambling. Video games are definitely one of the best way to start a small amount of your money to gamble with.
Advising beginners to start gambling with video games means a part of you knows video game can truly lead to gambling addiction.
Video game is really very interesting and in no time, players in most cases tend to spend so much time on the game just because of the pleasure and soon they are led to committing money into playing and this is truly what leads to addition, Little wonder why the government of Belgium blacklisted it as an illegal game and I think that is a very good move.

Exposing younger ones to something like this is not acceptable.
4049  Economy / Gambling / Re: Blackjack.fun - PROVABLY FAIR Blackjack Accepts Dash/Bitcoin/Litecoin on: March 15, 2019, 05:13:58 PM
Yeah the project feels too close to home so we were worried about you at the same time.

I mean the website was fine, it was working properly and we had no issues at all so the worrying part was not for the website it was for the person, which was you. If we had any issues with the website we could have just mailed you right in and ask whats going on but it wasn't a problem with the website, it works exactly like how it suppose to so we are definitely fine with it. Just wanted to make sure if you were fine and healthy that's all.

Since, this website is new and we have been here from day 1 and have been supporting it, at least to me this feels like a friend of mine started a blackjack place and I am just here to help him out anyway I can which is why we wanted to see if you right or not.
4050  Economy / Economics / Re: Barclays: ‘Facebook Coin’ to bring in $19 billion by 2021 on: March 15, 2019, 07:49:44 AM
"IF" investments stop flowing in.

When do you expect that investments will stop flowing?

Facebook coin is becoming overhype just because it is 'facebook' but if comparing with the other coins they don't have much difference. Facebook should should focus with blockchain integration of their platform through bitcoin instead of creating another altcoin.
Comparing Facebook coin with other coins actually has a lot big difference, hardly do you see where Facebook is not known, even to the most uncivilized countries, Facebook platform is just like GSM phone now that virtually everyone has and the introduction of their coincould be an eye opener for many people to the world of Cryptocurrency provided it comes in form of crypto.

It is really a welcomed development and This step from Facebook will not only make Facebook coin more accepted than other coins but also make bitcoin more popular.
4051  Economy / Economics / Re: Everything is an investment-change my mind on: March 15, 2019, 07:13:05 AM
Yes indeed investment anywhere is not always safe and has a high risk because we get profit from fluctuations, we cannot get it for sure. So that we have to be careful and do overall consideration in order to avoid these risks. I agree with what you say that invest anything we can lose. Because we must always be ready with the results that will be obtained.

There is no gain when you do not take the risk though. Our life always succeed on every challenges and find a way to get out and rise again. We cannot predict about the result easily when we invest but we do not have to wait with nothing. Invest what you afford to lose and diversify them.
You are so on point mate, it is better to try than not to try at all, savings is not enough to keep one financially free for life because every blessed day comes with its own challenge that will tend to take that savings away and except you have a river that never runs dry, you might not meet up.

So, it better to invest in lots of businesses no matter how risky they seems, there is 50% possibility of  whatever business we risk to be success, life is full of risk generally and except we take it before we can come out with a life decision. Just like crypto trading, I see a lot of people condemning it every day while some have taken the risk, at least with little income to try it and see where it leads them, and most have been successful.
4052  Economy / Economics / Re: If you want to be rich..! on: March 15, 2019, 06:41:22 AM
For being an rich person we will need each and every simple things for us it will be like luck timing and also hard work will combined together with your smart work will be the way to get richer for my opinion it will be very difficult and it will not came for every hard working people.
Yeah surely, you have to work really hard to be super rich and also working hard for yourself and not someone else because not matter how hard you work for someone else, it can never get you rich. Hard work pays in the long run, but for one to fully know that one has put his hard work to fullest as regards income generation, is when we put our hard work to test by engaging in so many things that could bring income to make us super rich.

When you have one source you concentrate your hard work on, it will be difficult to see the effect on time than then its being put on lots of income generating things.
4053  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are not fighting with post-ICO scams? on: March 15, 2019, 05:56:10 AM
Hello, we are all witnesses of ICO scams. But I am just wondering why people are not fighting against it?
Why people, especially investors are silent. Why they do not try to do as much as possible to get their money back? Calling police, lawyers and so on?
Many ICOs are created by real profiles - so it won´t be hard to arrest them, right?
Understand that the system is a decentralized system which that word alone has already neutralized all forms of legal involvement because these people you mentioned can only come in when government recognizes crypto currency generally and probably legalize it, all the ICOs you have participated in, is there any document binding you and the organization? No.

Also, remember that when it comes to ICO, you are not dealing with your country citizen, you could be dealing with someone in another continent entirely, how you use your country police to do that and the stress of also going through Interpol is high. 
4054  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: On Bitcoin Cash (again) on: March 14, 2019, 09:32:40 PM
This is a second installment in a series of posts about Bitcoin Cash and its fall. You can read the first part here

So my question is, how long will it take till this shitcoin bites the dust finally and stops being such pain in the ass?

We all have a set of expectations from the crypto market. And I think one of the biggest expectations is a cleaning process because the market includes too much coin. I think that Bitcoin Cash is not more than just a shitcoin too.
What will then be the cleaning process now that lot of coins has infiltrate the market aside the shitcoins and the ones that are scams too, if everyone opening a project start relying on ICO to raise fund and also creating their own coin, how will the crypto market survive or even see anything called bull run, I really wish the market can be cleaned as quick as possible before other potential investors gets discouraged generally just like I and few other investors are already getting fed up.
4055  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: best ICO in March 2019 on: March 14, 2019, 08:56:16 PM
I don’t think I have any favorite ICO for this month because most of the ones coming out doesn’t look promising to me and the ones I have participated in some months now are the ones finding it so difficult to really reach their soft cap not to talk of hard cap, so if you are looking for favorite for now, you might not get except the existing ICOs that are still planning to adding more value to their projects in the likes of Binance. Hence, you can watch of for Binance Chain project and probably you might find it interesting.
4056  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance traders are making more money than other traders on: March 14, 2019, 07:56:31 PM
Is not guaranteed all trader that use Binance making more profit than others exchanges, this is depend on the trend of market  and trading plan each trader,  in this long bearish trend, alot of trader making money from margin trading by shorting Bitcoin.  
One major reason why it is believed that Binance customers are making more profit is the fact that they have low trading fee which counts a lot, their trading fee is still the lowest in the market for now compared to other exchanges,  someone who traded $1000 on Binance will equally make more money than someone who traded on bitmex if they both trade on same margin, the trading fee difference has equally made one make money than the other even if we tag the difference has low but it does matter when it comes to trading with large amount of money.
4057  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to follow the course? on: March 14, 2019, 06:50:56 PM
I use the table and blockfolio. But it does not seem that there are other interesting tools for observing the coins. What service is convenient for you and why?
These two major tools you have mentioned are the best for now to use in observing trading, block folio is still the best and the most popular I think.

Another one I would have suggested is tab trader which does same thing and has addition tools of being able to trade all your coins live in one place irrespective of the exchanges you have them because you can link your exchanges directly to it and still be able to monitor your current holding live on it, so you can try that out too and give a review on it within you.
4058  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If you have to buy cryptocurrency for 10.000USD today.... on: March 14, 2019, 06:15:19 PM
BTC is stronger than IOTA so i prefer to make invest in to BTC for that money, and for IOTA the market cap is decreased alot and currently nothing good news about this project. But for day trading IOTA is good to choose because the price has potential to rally in bullish market, IOTA still good project because they development Internet of thing and blockchain technology.
The two shouldn’t have even been paired for comparison, I see it as an insult to BTC, even for day trading, IOTA has not been that a good coin for trading, I have IOTA in my Binance wallet and I have not seen any increase on the ones I am holding and the ones I chose to trade with is given me a lot of tension, they also usually have network issue because for like someday now, it’s been difficult for me to even withdraw from my Binance wallet, I kept getting network busy error.

The best to still invest in for now is BTC while some other projects I can still consider to invest such amount of money in now is BNB.
4059  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why not just gamble with fiat? on: March 14, 2019, 05:25:41 PM
Have you been to a real casino recently? You can't gamble with a penny. Maybe you can on some slots.

However if you want to play a game like Poker, Roulette, Blackjack they all got min bet amounts. So basically if you go to a casino with $5 you won't stay there too long.

With most crypto casinos you can bet with like 10 satoshi or so, some even offer 1 satoshi bets. Actually some even let you bet with 0 Satoshi.

So his point is correct that it makes gambling more affordable since the limits are much much lower.
That’s a very good and clear example. if 10 satoshis can offer a player 1 bet, you can see how satisfying this would make everyone. Having to try as much as you can. There are many who gamble for entertainment and committing little satoshis means nothing to them. It indeed makes gambling very affordable; thereby giving everybody the chance to be a player and one can decide trying for a number of times before winning.
4060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: March 14, 2019, 04:53:03 PM
Just because, there was ONE win against warriors without Kevin Durant it is seriously silly to think Rockets have no chance of beating the Warriors. Don't get me wrong I knew from day 1 that Warriors would win the ring once again, there is no team that can go against them toe to toe for 7 games but that is not because Rockets lost to them without Durant. This season Rockets won against warriors without HARDEN on their team once, HARDEN I am telling you.

So, one match is no way of thinking which team is stronger, if the league played the playoffs in one match system instead of 7 games than I can assure you Rockets could beat the best of them and had a chance but 7 game series is just not a chance at all not because of this match but because they have no solution to Durant at all.
