4701  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to find about upcoming coins? on: December 18, 2017, 06:43:18 PM
Hi,

Basically coins that are already in development, not necessarily ICOs. Would it be too late to wait for them to be listed on popular exchanges like Bittrex?

I just want to have a single source just like coinmarketcal where can I read about upcoming coins so I can read about the concept behind them, etc. So I can decide if they could get big and/or with some discussions, etc.

Otherwise when people mention a coin, it's always already way too big. Not too late but not as early as one could get 100x return vs 10x for one year for example.


Thanks in advance.
The truth is you may have to do a lot of digging to find these coins. Most of these coins really do not get listed immediately on some of these big exchanges, but you can still find them on Etherdelta. However, these coins are really much and that would take some high level of scrutiny to be able to know which would end up successful at least or not. I would not want to be too in haste for 100x return though but you may be lucky.

I recently bought into COSS, which is a good project that not much people even know much about and luckily for me, the coin is increasing greatly in the market now and I am going to be holding that coin for as long as I can.

Hi Folks,
Today there are more than 1000+ cryptocurrencies in the market.
I was wondering why some of them success and some failure.

what do you think?

How does cryptocurrency success?
I believe it is all about the faith from the people. Success is building with the trust of the people and when people started believing something success is not far for that specific thing.

People cannot invest in all the currencies as you mentioned that there are more than 1000 coins in the markets, so it is not possible for the people to invest in all because of the limited resources. That’s why only those succeed in which people come forward to trust and invest the most.

In cross perspective, when more number of people will be adopting cryptocurrencies, I guess, even non trust worthy coins also may find its success as people just look for their returns but not the reason and need of a coin.

Hello,

I am an admin of wheel99.com

To celebrate our 1millionth spin, we created a new theme (design).
We are also looking to promote our site in several ways.
a giveaway, a contest and others are planned.

Do you guys have ideas how to promote our site?

Kind regards,

Steffson

First congratulation for the success of your project, and I think one of the best way to advertise your project is to have a bounty campaign in social media, signature campaign and so on. This forum will help you advertise it and many people will participate simply because you run a good one.
I also feel good wishes for your success and hard work and I really feel excited that one of our fellows get success in his work. I think that there are lots of ways to advertise your gambling site like Facebook, twitter, instagram or any other.

In my country there is no casino and gambling is not allowed openly. Therefore we cannot use any social media site or any other media site to advertise gambling but if there is no ban on gambling in your country and you can gamble openly not in the streets but in casinos then I think you can use social sites.
4704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Losing Streak Strategy on: December 18, 2017, 08:10:45 AM
Having a limit into betting is sometimes effective. You must set a limit of your losses otherwise it will get bigger everytime you bet into something you always failed. Strategies are like trial and error. Lossing once is enough. Twice is too much. Then, you must change strategy. Though its a game of luck but still it needs common sense to revise or stop a certain method you follow.

Greed will never go from people especially form those who do not have a control on the money. I know a friend's friend who is actually keep gambling inspite of several loses considering that in the next bet he will win.  You had said rightly losing one is enough but twice is too much. But how many people will understand this so that they do not lose more in gambling?
It would have made more sense if you have used the word ‘emotions’ rather than the word ‘money’ because greed is the wish of making more money than you have but not to control money. Controlling money is a good thing and this shows that how much saving person you are rather to show greed. This is the main reason for which the gambling is still alive in the market.

Most of the times people do gamble just to recover their losses that is the reason they do face lengthy losing streaks more often than any winning streaks. A gambler's aggressiveness and greediness will cause many problems as these are major reasons for a gambler to deviate from their initial plans of gambling for a day.
4705  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Transfer My Entire Savings to Cryptocurrencies? on: December 17, 2017, 06:39:47 PM
It would be good idea. Personally, I receive my salary in bitcoins and I hold it in my hard wallet. I spend money from freelancing incomes and invest the rest in promising crypto projects. Remember, DON'T PUT ALL EGGS IN THE SAME BASKET. Your entire savings in crypto => yes Your entire savings in bitcoin => NO
You started it out well, and then you ended it badly. Sorry, I had to say that. I am not sure if the only place you get your salary is from the crypto world and probably you also get some from the outside world which you are saving some of it or investing in other areas. Sure, crypto may be here to stay, but the last word of even investing all in crypto is still a risky move.

You should have a certain part of your savings into the crypto world, and then you can diversify some of it which i feel is the best thing to do.
4706  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hi friends. I need advice.... on: December 17, 2017, 04:44:32 PM
Dude, this is a bitcoin forum full of people who are so bullish on btc (and desperate for it), that you're not going to get any answers that are useful.   Everybody is going to tell you yes, including myself.   I think despite it being at its ATH, it's still worth buying, because the bull market isn't done by a long shot.  We'll probably go to $20k or higher by the end of 2018.  Don't come back and blame me if it doesn't, though.  It's risky as hell but it's made a lot of folks very rich.
Right! All anyone will ever tell is to buy anytime you have the funds. We all did that anyway and there is no point looking back to regret even if things do not end up as one really wished it to be. Bitcoin is volatile, we are still in the early phase and we still have a lot of time ahead of us to grow bigger, so for someone who is going to be holding for a long term, buying now is the best option.

No one would know or really tell anyone what can happen next with the value of these two coins, but as long as we are holding for long, then you can buy now and forget about other things that would happen afterwards.

A lot of people have been expecting that there would be some huge correction and the truth is that so far it has not come and we all do not know when that would happen or if it will ever happen at all. My say would be for you to buy now and if you have more when it dips, then buy more.

4708  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to trade efficiently? on: December 16, 2017, 12:49:36 PM
I know that it varies from people to people and their strategies but there must be some important and basic points which people tend to forget all the time .
Of course I don't want you to reveal your trading strategy but some good tips that would really help me out.

First of all, leave day trading to the bots! Go for longer term trades on recently heavily dumped coins. Don't diversify too much, and don't buy small amounts of a lot of coin. You will end up only with scraps. Concentrate on few well researched coins instead. Hunt down coins with solid, new technology and buy the dips.
And stay away from pump groups. The good ones are closed clubs with rather high buy-in price.
Good suggestions but he can actually make day active trades but depending on how much time he would put up into trading.If time is to hectic then better go for longer terms when it comes on trading cryptos and as being suggested don't diversify too much and it much better to have a few coins but on solid ones rather than on have many but on weaker or doesn't have any potential for long term.This would really matter on how a certain individual would do its just like on researching up important things.
Very good advisers. But how did we know if this coins has a great potential for us to buy more of it. Im just an still newbie at this kind of way. I think I need more advice guys.
Start with the team, start with the price at the ICO, see from the whitepaper if it is a project or a product you would buy and then see if the team will have all it takes to push it to the top. From there, you will know if it is still undervalued or not and the chances of it getting to the peak and then you can make your decisions based on that.

You still have to live room for errors though, not all companies will survive, but by doing this, you can at least be rest assured that you are going to do great as an investor.
4709  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin correction on: December 16, 2017, 06:28:54 AM
With all the money flowing in from blind investors and all these sudden massive increase in only a few days, are some a few scared it will crash?

I'm not saying go to 1,000$ but crash back to 10k?

And I know no one can predict anything... I'm simply asking for opinions...
The massive increase in the price happened last week, and with it, the correction. We went close to 19k and then last weekend the price went down to 13k-14k (that's $5000 difference).
We won't see 10k again unless a big crash happens (a 40% decrease in the price), which is very unlikely. I'd say the new floor is around the 16k mark (the price has been pretty stable at that price since monday) so from now on we can only expect to see the price going up/down with the usual fluctuation.
But worst case sceneraio, it goes down to 10k...so? that would be the perfect time to buy cheap coins before it jumps back to normal.
I wonder if people have not really been looking at the charts. There has been some tug of war lately between the bulls and the bears after the correction and we all see the outcome. Now the market is testing back up and I really do not know why some people are still waiting for a crash that may never even surface. Even if it eventually does, that just gives us more room to have more for ourselves.

There is a possibility and you have said it already, no one can predict anything. We may just all be scared for nothing and hoping that we will have a massive correction and we may not.

It is just reasonable that after such a long quick ride with the massive increase in profit, there should be some crazily huge correction, but from what I have been seeing recently after testing the tops and coming back down, in the real sense, this is something that may not really come but no one really knows.
4710  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will surpass $500,000 by the end of 2018 on: December 16, 2017, 02:58:10 AM
This year was very optimistic for the crypto currency market and I think most analysts believe that in the next years the price of crypto currency will grow rapidly. I'd really like that, but I'd rather keep my sanity.
I think if in 2018 the price of bitcoin reaches $ 100,000, it will be an excellent result
I though at the beginning of this year that if bitcoin reaches $10,000, it would be a magnificent result and in fact, I will end up giving myself a huge treat with 1 bitcoin. Now, we have bitcoin setting a pace to probably $20,000 or even more and we are here still not expecting that anything can change in a split of a second ?

Awareness is increasing daily, people are getting to see bitcoin for what it really is and that is what is going to make bitcoin skyrocket even in coming year. I or no one cannot say where bitcoin what the value of bitcoin will end up as, but the truth is no one can know except for us all, to just keep seeing where it ends.
4711  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Worst coins ever. on: December 15, 2017, 06:25:43 PM
You will never be sure on 100%. But in internet, many information about ICO and you can choose right project
You can always be sure if you do some research. Yes, it may not be 100% guaranteed but at least you will get something pretty close. There is no coin that will not get all the necessary details you will need and the same way we get to know coins that will end up being a scam is the same way we can get to know a coin which is centralized which is totally by doing some little research about the team, the idea of the coin itself and so on.

The research for worst coin may go infinite as only very few coins are coming up with a reason and all others are just a copycat or simple modified concept of some other existing projects. If we notice in depth, now a days altcoins are here for fund raising for a project but there will be no guarantee that project will go live or not.
4712  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dash about to top $1,000 on: December 15, 2017, 05:25:56 PM
With such high growth % it actually makes sense to buy every single new coin that pops up, and simple wait for the explosive ones.
It makes more than sense bro! I could imagine someone who got so angry with the bitcoin's growth and bought some of these top altcoins to keep just in case must be smiling pretty big to his wallet right now. These coins have really shown to the world that they are capable as well but I hope they really last with the huge increase in their value and it is not just some stunts to stay relevant.

The thing is that most of the top altcoins gained in percentage more than bitcoin this year. The only difference is that most of them just ended up doing it over night while bitcoin gained consistently. I would be scared though because those were some crazily huge increase than anyone would imagine and I am really not hoping that they would not end up having a huge correction this new year, which would be a good time to buy more anyway.
4713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is the martingale working or not ? on: December 15, 2017, 01:45:08 PM
I think martingale is not working in any gambling games, martingale is the way of betting, not depend on the games, we have see a lot of streak lose in dice sites because we played it many times when you play roulette with the same amount I think you will see many streak lose

I have try a lot of games with martingale and all result is the same, and the worst game to used martingale is sportbet
Martingale is just a strategy to double up bet until you get a winning game and everything still balls down on the bank roll of the gambler and the starting amount for a bet and just like you have said, long streaks is all that it would take to clear out the whole money in the gambler's account. There is absolutely no strategy that can help in such cases and the only thing to rely on is luck and knows that you are only playing a game with a lot of chances that you can easily lose.

Usually, nothing works in gambling except your luck and the fact that you cannot always beat the house edge as your chances are quite slim is enough to let anyone know that it should be a no go area if you are thinking of making profit or earning because it is not an investment but a game and you can lose bad.

All people have tried martingale and the only thing it can do is to reduce your chances to may be play dice for a long time before you get nabbed, but that does not mean long streaks of losses cannot just easily get you nabbed.
4714  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What market should be the best to trade: BTC - ETH - USDT? on: December 15, 2017, 10:16:51 AM
First, no matter how you are trading, or the currency you are trading, all you need is knowledge and if you do not have that, please do not consider trading and learn before you continue. USDT to any other cryptocurrency is a good choice.

I use both USDT and BTC for my trading base to any other coin anyway and the markets are different in a way.
It is your analysis in any of the trade that would determine how you make your profit eventually as well as losses.
4715  Economy / Economics / Re: Remember when this looked like the end of the world? on: December 15, 2017, 07:23:36 AM
Wow, $15, now it even exceeded $15,000. Had I been that early and managed to stay in, I would have been a millionaire now. But then again, they probably never expected it to reach this point. They saw a bubble simply because how it was in comparison to the previous prices they saw.

I would understand why they feel disappointed though.
No one expected it and no one can really be blamed. The thing is that just like you, some of us actually wished we had been around back then, but the truth is that no one can turn back the hands of time and we just have to accept whatever comes in the long run. It is a decision and everyone has to be willing to accept whatever decisions they must have made.

It could be hurting though knowing you had the chance, and then you blew it, but that was the level of their own understanding at that time and no one could have seen the future and by the way that dude is on met! Grin
4716  Economy / Economics / Re: Remember when this looked like the end of the world? on: December 14, 2017, 10:40:48 AM
What are you talking about? Why feel sorry for those who sold their bitcoins? They had the opportunity then to buy your coins back. I'm sure many people did. Now, too many people buy and sell bitcoins every day. You all will feel sorry for them? Perhaps in the future bitcoin will be worth $ 100,000. What are we not to sell the coins today?
It was really their choice when they sold it and their decisions as well and you are right, no need feeling sorry for them. However, it is human for most of these guys to feel sorry for themselves, considering the fact that they sold when they though at $30 bitcoin was in a bubble state.

The truth is that we all make decisions based on assumption sometimes and because we cannot really tell what the future holds. If we all did, then most of us won't have made such mistake. Nonetheless, they could have been right or wrong, but unfortunately, it just turned out they were wrong and such is life.

Everyone have their opinion at a certain point in time. The same we have some people who are worried about the increase in value at this moment and then kept calling it bubble is the same way we had people back then and we are going to keep having a lot of them in the future. Even when bitcoin gets to $1,000,000, so many people will still call it a bubble even when it is glaring enough that it isn't.
4717  Economy / Economics / Re: what are the effects of bitcoin on the world economy? on: December 14, 2017, 08:37:04 AM
since the bitcoin I see the purchasing power of the community increases, more and more new rich people who appear due to bitcoin, well what I ask is whether its influence on the economy since adany bitcoin until now whose price reaches 1600 $

let's share
The effects of bitcoin in the economy is that it gives people a source of income who needs money and it also reduces unemployed people in a country because bitcoin can be consider as a job that you are still earning money from it. That's why i hope bitcoin will stay longer so more people will be help by bitcoin.
Yeah, at least so many people are even able to work online and get paid using their skills without having to wait for the government to put food on their table. There are so many opportunities for a lot of company outsourcing works online which is confirmed a lot cheaper and despite the load of workforce globally, so many people are not able to get their hands on any job due to payment restrictions.

I have been there and things have changed now with bitcoin for those who are not lazy, but looking at the global economy though, that is one huge level.
4718  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late, to invest? on: December 14, 2017, 07:31:29 AM
I Am also late but I already made a 4x profit when I bought btc at 4k..  Its not too late dude.  You can also buy ltc eth iota.
Most times, it usually feel like it is too late but the truth is no one can know. One good thing about this world is that there is so much room for growth and at the long run, once you understand where you have invested in, you will not really regret it. Do not be too particular about the profit though, focus more on the fact that you are buying in into the future. Understand the volatility as well and don't be so much in a haste to make panic decisions.

You really need to sit down first and understand the trend of the market you are coming into and then check out all possibilities. I am pretty sure you have been following the news and then you have been seeing some of the things going on right now with bitcoin.

However, you have to also be smart and do not get too greedy. If you are in for the profit, then trust me, you will not last. This is a volatile market and what you are seeing now is a market that is being pumped. Put that into consideration before investing now.
4719  Economy / Speculation / Re: Updated prediction of bitcoin price 4 weeks-4 years on: December 14, 2017, 06:30:49 AM
High fees is a fundamental factor that might deter mainstream adoption, if we decide to value bitcoin on network effects then its important to consider long term
In fact, right now, high fee is actually the least of my worries and I am sure that would be a thing of the past in the long run. However, the points that the OP stated are really some valid points with the entrance of the wall street guys.

We may say what they are doing is gambling, but we all know these are some high bitchy manipulators which is the normal thing they do for a living and how that is really going to affect the market in the long run is what matters now and only if people would understand their mission. Unfortunately, the market is centered on greed right now and I hope new investors will really not get shaken off eventually.
4720  Economy / Speculation / Re: Korea bans Bitcoin derivatives~ OUCH! on: December 14, 2017, 04:09:26 AM
I am not sure how much of a serious damage if any this does to Bitcoin's growth in terms of market capital.

https://www.coindesk.com/report-bitcoin-derivatives-banned-south-korean-government/

That's no bad news for Bitcoin I can assure you!
Apparently! If there mission was to see bitcoin going down or users getting scared, then they just failed abruptly. So far the news went round, I am sure they will be very surprised it had no effect on the market and I am pretty sure investors should start seeing more reasons they should start believing that this is a currency for the people and the currency itself is the people and not some government that can just decide to keep enslaving us.

But, my concern is what difference does it really make ? If they decide to ban whatever they want to ban, that will not stop bitcoin from still being used.

Bitcoin may be a speculative investment at the moment, but that does not make it real. If they fell threatened by the existence of bitcoin, then that is their own problem. If I am in Korea, I can as well just go to nearby countries to trade.
