4561  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any chance to pump eth value? on: May 06, 2018, 07:01:27 AM
I see today, eth position in the market getting down and now it reaches 0.06xxx btc after a few days ago getting increase until 0.074 btc. I think this is a correction for a while and I see that there is a war in the market that is trying to make the price increase back. the order buys and order sell trying to make fill every order in the order book and I think the price will get a pump soon. order buy doesn't have a big support meanwhile in order sell has a big wall to prevent the price increase but soon the walls will disappear if the price force to increase.
The whole market is simply correcting and this should be expected most of the time especially when bitcoin is correcting as well. Nevertheless, ETH from the dip actually got to about $800 and this is a good thing for those who must have bought the dip anyway and I expect further growth immediately after the correction, which I believe should at least give some more room for further growth as long as we do not end up having a double top.

Trust eth. Always strong coin is that ETH. Dont worry , it'll be more rise. Increasing value of ETH is expected in the future.
I really do not see any reason why anyone should be worried about any market at this stage. From the look of things, every market is going to be having some pretty good time in coming weeks anyway and that includes ETH. I guess we are gradually getting to the season of altcoins as long as things do not end up getting awry and out of hand with bitcoin. Also, patience is always the best thing in this market and that is what I always expect everyone to have.
4562  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you keep yourself from spending on unimportant things? on: May 05, 2018, 04:23:01 PM
I dont know if it is just me or others also experience it. I always set goals financially, set limits in spending and trying hard to save but most of the time no matter how i tell myself to refrain from spending in unnecessary things whenever i see something i really like even if i dont need it i cant resist buying it that cause me to regret later. Are you familiar with this situation?
I'm very familiar with this situation. I don't have control to myself when I see items that are % on sale. But good thing I was able to overcome this habit by thinking that I have to fight against this type of mentality as I grow older when I see my savings I got not that much and that makes me want to save more and starts to ignore those things that I really like but it's not that important. Right now, I'm only buying things that I need and of course bills come first.
Apparently, most of us have been there one way or the other and it would only take some level of control of our finances to be able to shed off those things that are unimportant from our lists.

Firstly, I have emphasized this before in other threads, a lot of people do not know how powerful a budget can be, it takes a lot trying to draw up a budget and eliminating some things just to catch up, but with budget and sticking to it, you will always find yourself do things in a proper and easy way and you will think you are even richer than you are.
4563  Economy / Economics / Re: Everything you need to know about the Bitcoin on: May 05, 2018, 02:14:07 PM
I recognise Bitcoin as a step to decentralisation in general. BTC as a phenomenon means that demand for an unregulated and anonymous (well, bitcoin is not totally anonymous, still) currency is huge and sooner or later we'll see that countries' borders mean nothing.
That step to decentralization is one step that has truly changed everything and even though it may be pseudo anonymous, which still does not change the fact that it really is disrupting a whole lot of things for the better. So far so good, it is obvious that the fact that we can do a borderless transaction without a third party is one of the things that is making so many real believers of bitcoin to get into this train except for just some few greedy people who want to make quick bucks overnight.
4564  Economy / Economics / Re: Will countries or central banks create their own cryptocurrency? on: May 04, 2018, 06:57:03 PM
it could happen, because the times progressed and more modern .. of course a country and the central bank will make new innovations to compensate for the advancement of the times. Currently Bitcoin as the digital currency of its existence is increasingly widespread and growing, it is possible that will be motivated by a country and central banks to create their own cryptocurrency.
This is digital age and obviously everything is gradually beginning to go digital even as we see money beginning to enter the evolution phase as well. So many countries have already stated the obvious that blockchain technology is the future and they are ready to embrace it.

Now, I am not sure how other cryptocurrencies will fill this space since they are decentralized but even with the countries having their own system, it would still end up centralized but with so many opportunities for the country if this is adopted.

4566  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stop Crying about Crypto! on: May 02, 2018, 07:57:46 PM
This will continue, because people are greedy. They will buy in the hope of getting x10 for their portfolio and crying at every correction.
Invest in crypto ONLY money, which you can loss.

I guess it's just natural to worry about our portfolio, just a little worry then that's enough and move over as this all psychological response of our brain seeing the market red but in the end of the day we believe in our coins and move forward. People are still people and sometimes even we say we're used to it still some part of brain doesn't. Don't be hypocrite about this.
No one would worry if all they have there is something they can really overlook and they did not at any point get greedy and also that would even make it easy for them to add more when the market is in a dip to at least be able to balance it up once the market is getting back into a good shape. The thing is that a lot of people usually do not always get the idea that, crypto is volatile and there is nothing anyone can do about it, and what is the point crying when looking forward to the future ?
4567  Economy / Speculation / Re: 60 minutes and Bitcoin value jumped to $7,800 on: April 17, 2018, 05:16:16 AM
OP, are you into  the cryptocurrency investment because of the quick gains you want to make out of it? Even if there is an unstable price in the price of bitcoin, that doesn't mean the price will sink forever without rising again. The inconsistence going on with the price is just probably a correction,  a FUD or just a normal phase that will soon be a history.  It's good to have a positive outlook to earn better.
It is not surprising. Apparently, most people are here in the first place, not because they are trying to invest in the future, but because they are trying to see how to make quick profit or get rich overnight with bitcoin. This is the main reason we have a lot of weak hands in the market and so many people panic easily once they start seeing the other negative side of the market paving in.

Every market is volatile and people will only look at the bad side because that is all they just want to see. Even there are mixed trends, overall market into positive sentiment compared to what we had in the last week. We can expect it to continue in coming days and weeks to have prices above $10k levels, hopefully Cool.
4568  Economy / Economics / Re: Bank of America to store data on the blockchain on: April 17, 2018, 04:25:41 AM
And of course, leave it to a stodgy retail bank to choose the least impactful application of a new technology. Document storage? WTF? Why not using it for inter company transactions or the general ledger accounting or speeding up the time it takes to clear transactions from days to minutes.

Banks are already looking into that as far as I know. Those are very sensitive business processes to mess with though, so I'm sure they would prefer to take their time. It's also worth noting that is just one patent, and it was filed on 2016. I'm sure there are other patents involving blockchain technology applications floating out there filed by banks.
It is actually a good thing they are not just considering but they have finally made the step to bring it into reality.

Yeah, like you said, this has always been on the table and I have always believed anyway that blockchain technology is here to stay, and it is just the idea of decentralization that has always made the banks fearful. Once we start seeing the usage of blockchain technology through banks, then we will start seeing things get better in the long run.
4569  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it a good buying price for bitcoin? on: April 17, 2018, 03:49:04 AM
If you intend to invest it then now is a very appropriate time because bitcoin prices are now practically down from the price at the end of 2017, and if you buy now and sell it at the end of 2018 then you will get rich suddenly.
Yes this is our good chances to buy bitcoin as the price is still good to invest. I agree price drastically drops from last year so while it has not surpass from last year I can say good buying price. Invest this year will be possibly much higher price for bitcoin.
Yes that is right that we have a very good chance to trade bitcoin in current time. although bitcoin has given a very good profit to people who have invested money in bitcoin in early stage, but still i think that we have the opportunity to trade bitcoin and get a very good profit from it. We can hope that bitcoin will continue giving us profit for a long long time.
Anyone who has even been here for a long time will know that it is not the short term that counts but the future that really counts.

The truth here is that except if you are trader and you know what you are doing, such a person is the only one who should be worried about when to buy into a market and there are so many things they can always use to make that decision, but someone without trading knowledge or experience and as an investor should always consider the dip as that would always make a lot of sense when focusing on the future.
4570  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is bitcoin stability important? on: April 17, 2018, 02:21:02 AM
I think promoting bitcoin stability is partly a matter of avoiding the alcoint crisis, major changes in cryptocurrencies activities, high inflation, and excessive volatility and alcoint markets. Instability can increase uncertainty, inhibit investment, hamper the growth of alcoint.
for your opinion.?

I will update my reply to this topic later. reserve
Lol. Probably in the next few years when things have extremely turned around and bitcoin is being used majorly as a currency than being just an asset. Yes, volatility can increase the level of uncertainty, but that happens to those who are considered weak as they really do not understand what the future holds at the point in time.

If we are to start experiencing some level of volatility, bitcoin would have been considered huge, which by then the value would not even be what it is now, but this is just something that one just have to sacrifice as an early adopter which most people do not understand.
4571  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Looking for a better exchange: Bittrex and Poloniex? on: April 16, 2018, 06:45:03 PM
Avoid Poloniex until they fix their withdrawal glitches, and hire more people after Circle's acquisition is established.

I have already read many complaints about withdrawals not going through and that their customer support takes weeks to resolve those issues because they are short on workers.
Waiting already 23 days for a missing XEM deposit I did send from Binance to Poloniex, until now I am still waiting for support that will credit mine account. In there last public statement they said that they had a huge backlog of open support tickets. They lost already a lot of trust and many people  had a terrible experience when their money was stuck, wonder if they ever will be able to win users trust back.

Quote
When the Poloniex-Circle integration began in late February, together we faced a backlog of 159,000 customer issues. Over the past 6 weeks, we have resolved 76,000 of those issues and added 6 new agents to our support team. We have tripled the number of engineers working on our wallet infrastructure and streamlined the process for notifying engineering when technical support is needed.
https://poloniex.com/press-releases/2018.04.06-Circle-Poloniex-Journey-Six-Weeks-In/
That is just the problem with most of the exchanges these days and poloniex just keep getting worst with the whole withdrawal and deposit problem which is one thing I have never experienced with bittrex and such things can be terribly annoying, considering how not being able to do anything and then having hard time to get support to handle your request just makes the whole idea of using poloniex tiring. I would still always choose bittrex or binance as a better option.
4572  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do's for trade in recent downtrend??? on: April 16, 2018, 06:10:17 PM
Nice tips dear I totally agree with your opinions. crypto remains always in fluctuation so wait for a good move and again try to trade but in decline sit down and hold.
I can't prefer invest to borrowed money in crypto because which will happen in the future no one can't predict it. I can invest my own money in crypto for that reason I can hold it the long time and leave it when it will be pumped.
If you have borrowed money from somewhere then you must have to return it someday and it would also be useless to return it without making a good use of that amount. This is not the first time that the whole digital market has gone red.

Bitcoin would be making progress soon and altcoins will be following it.If someone desires to become rich, now is his chance to achieve that dream at a very low cost.
Borrowing to invest unless you really know what you are doing is actually an insane thing to do. I have seen so many people who have no knowledge about an investment or the market borrowing and end up ruining everything and even embarrassing themselves in the process as they are not able to repay quickly based on the mistakes they have made which eventually leads them to making worst decisions. If you want to be rich, get yourself filled up with knowledge and that is the only way you can easily make it.
4573  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips to survived the difficulties on market downfall on: April 16, 2018, 04:08:14 PM
This advice has been said and reminded countless times already but still people panic and sell they're crypto currencies when the price goes down. These shows you shouldn't really invest money you cannot afford to lose cause you might end up losing it because of FUD.

I think the reason why people they panic selling because they don't have enough knowledge on how to handle the risk of trading ,so they follow the people crowd when everyone sell they sell it also even they can lose their money. And i like your said that we need to invest on what we can afford to lose.
That is even the number one thing or even the main reason why they panic. Normally, if you invest without any knowledge of your area of investment, the likelihood of panicking at some point, based on not preparing yourself for the risk ahead is definite.

A lot of people are just here for profit based on all they have heard and forgetting how volatile the market can be in a short period and then let that wipe off their level of thinking to be at least patient for the long term until they panic and make the wrong moves eventually.
4574  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITCOIN BACK AS THAT WAS on: April 16, 2018, 04:03:15 AM
can bitcoin back as it used to go to the highest price in the price of 1900 $ so that users can enjoy back when bitcoin to the moon

I hope positive on bitcoin will be able to go back up to be able to give a positive impact on users financially

give your feedback


it could happen if bitcoin has good news that could trigger a bitcoin price increase because if there is no good news then the price will never be able to go back to recover the price to a high price.
Yeah, news triggers the market a whole lot and that is the brain beside most of the fluctuations we see in every market.

No one can say when or how this is going to be, but in the long run, it is something that is definite to see happen, as we can expect the news that would create a huge demand for the space and then make it interesting to see how people flow in like we saw last year, but I would say nothing much should be expected immediately as all these things take a lot of time.
4575  Economy / Economics / Re: Will the bitcoin be outdated by another currency? on: April 15, 2018, 04:44:16 PM
I have not found any of these signs will happen at this time. but in the economic world all can happen, including bitcoin outdated by another currencies.
Indeed, in cryptocurrency all can be happen, that's unlikely to be possible. But keep in mind, trust can't be underestimated just because there is a higher quality altcoin than bitcoin. Bitcoin has a large market compared to altcoin, which means many investors have more confidence in bitcoin than altcoin.

They (investors) will prioritize investments in bitcoin, after which altcoin will become the second priority. This situation will last long and will even remain the same in the future, its mean bitcoin can not be outdated by another currency. Investors will determine bitcoin be outdated by another currency or bitcoin can not be outdated by another currency.
As long as the trust has been there all along, bitcoin has been able to stand the test of time, and it is developing, is one of the major factors why the older investors will not even in any way think of the idea of stopping to support bitcoin. Altcoins may have come up with some very sweet idea, but you will only start finding those loop holes eventually when you start using them the way bitcoin has been used, so in one word, it pays to stick with what you believe in that we have seen the loop holes, building on it and staying stronger than a baby that is just starting its life.
4576  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is bitcoin stability important? on: April 15, 2018, 03:54:51 PM
The market stability is very important so as to enable new investors plan and also get reliability of the markets trends for their investment; minimizing the high risk of previously unstable market. The altcoins investors too will get a better value for their money with respect to time as the markets buildup gradually.
It is a market as we have already been calling it and I do not see how this should be a problem since it is just a normal thing for every market even though bitcoin seems to be a little bit complex and different. It is a decentralized environment and it has been running like this for a while and that has not in any way inhibited the growth of any alt, investment, and so on.

We may say, it affects altcoin, but they still always have their period once in a while. It is just market, and all these are bound to happen all the time.
4577  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Buying Coins on: April 15, 2018, 12:44:16 PM
Here's a new serious project who wants to invest
https://www.myethersports.com/#home
There are so many good projects, it is just to know how to do your research and find them. As long as there is a product and the team is sound to keep developing on the product to make it better, then there is no way such a coin or token will not end up having a future. Looking for cheap coins is not the case most of the time.

Although, some with low cap can actually go a very long way, but at the same time, it takes extra precaution not to invest in a shit coin. Buying massive volume of cheaper coin will not ensure any big profits. Moreover it is kind of gambling like if that coin bounce back then you may get big returns else you will lose all your capital. We should never gamble in the name of trading hence I never suggest to go for a coin only with the reason of cheaper prices.
4578  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are holding Altcoin? on: April 15, 2018, 11:46:10 AM
Why people are still holding their altcoincoin in this volatile market?

Do they really love their altcoin?
Are they waiting for the price goes up?
What is your reason for holding?
Well, everyone will have their own different opinion but as long as you believe in the project you are holding, you would not really care about holding all the way. Like you have said, it is a volatile market, but the truth is that you cannot get the best by selling when the value is low anyway, and since you have been holding, it is better when you have gotten the best of your investment. Personally, I have a target and I have not even gotten close to it.

Holding gives a hope that you may be able to make more money in the coming days.
You mean that hopes are not real ? Holding is actually a good thing for a brighter future but only when that coin is based on good and potential project. Here by "good", I am referring lots of factors including team and their credibility.
4579  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are you doing with your Cryptos?? Holding / Selling / Buying more? on: April 15, 2018, 11:16:47 AM
This is not the time to sell your coins. This is the time to be accumulating and finding new opportunities. You will regret it bigtime if you sell all of your shares during a bear market. It will turn up again, be patient Smiley
If anyone is selling their coins now they are seriously making a mistake because they are not even in a good position at all to sell. This is the way the market has always been and one thing is that it would recover. It is just a matter of patience and for those who realize how big what they are holding could get, it would be less of a worry for them knowing that in the future, they have so much more to gain than what is at hand now.

I am just buying more as markets started showing good signals of recovery hence it must be a good time to have more coins for comparatively cheaper prices than what we had in some four months back. Probably I am falling into the category of buying more and holding.
4580  Economy / Speculation / Re: Expect price to go up or price down? on: April 15, 2018, 09:31:15 AM
After the price is often down and slow to rise higher like last year, what exactly do you expect, do you expect the price to go down to buy or expect the price to rise high?
As Of now we can say what will happen as you can see everyday in the market the price up and tomorrow is down. But I believe that the will recover and I expect that all in the market will  increase.
What is happening is normal, and it is one thing I have expected every old member of the community to have gotten used to by now and what new members should have realized from the old members. It is a highly volatile market and there is nothing we can do about it, but asides that, every market will always have its up and downs, but the long term however for every investor still remains intact with respect to huge profit and those who can see that can see it.
