1421  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Staying away from Bitcoin for 5 years on: May 29, 2018, 03:38:27 PM
See y'all. You won't be back other than to express your bitterness. Just another piece of roadkill on the highway. have you not learnt a lesson or two along the way?
Yes, isn't that what happens to them eventually ? They come here to state that they know it all and compare silver to bitcoin and expect the same thing to happen and in less than 5 years when they come back, they will be wishing bitcoin tanks to at least even $10000 so they can buy since they have missed out.

I feel people are always the cause of their own predicament and obviously they can simply join us when we are already up there as no one cares. I remember when most people were chickening out very early last year when I bought around $1100, and here we are today! People really won't learn.
1422  Economy / Speculation / Re: Real Reason Behind Bitcoin’s Price Crash. on: May 29, 2018, 01:36:40 PM
In United States, bitcoin investors are selling off their holdings in order to pay their capital gain tax. And it generated a huge of of btc. Besides demand has not be increased on that level. Thus supply increased a lot and not demand as well. And this situation is mainly responsible for the going on market crash.Do you agree with the reason? What is your thinking that how long it would take to recover the market condition. I have got the news from a renowned website. As a newbie, I am not sharing the link here. Do you want the reference?
You must have forgot to include the MtGox dude inexperienced sell off as well to your reasons why the crash came about.

Nevertheless, bitcoin was actually due for it anyway after the last year craziness that was brought about by FOMO and greed but I believe that very soon, bitcoin will actually end up recovering and start taking new turns to the upper side, but when is not what we can actually state or the level at which it is going to go down lower but all you have said, all together added up in a way.
1423  Economy / Economics / Re: Us government has start probe in manipulation in value of cryptocurrency . on: May 29, 2018, 11:06:47 AM
In a relatively unregulated and globally-active market, why would the US spearhead the probe into illicit trading? This means they already have interests on the said market and are looking for ways to tax the exchange operators hard alongside the users. What I want the US to do is a major crackdown on illicit ICOs as they're the ones who's causing major trouble in the cryptospace right now, and market manipulation will always be there no matter how many investigations and probes they'd do. Also, have a peek on traditional stock markets and see whether market manipulation is present or not.
They obviously had interest all along, and we know how much they kick against illegal and illicit trading right from the onset. Although they made a valid point, that a manipulated market by investors will end up being perceived wrongly, and let's face it, that is not good.

I know how much manipulation of some cryptocurrencies can be so annoying as a trader just because some whales always see it as an opportunity to use pattern and volume to deceive traders into getting a position and these days it has become a huge risk to trade the cryptocurrency market, but like you said anyway, it is a decentralized market, so all these kind of stuffs are bound to happen.
1424  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you approve this strategy: sell alts buy btc? on: May 29, 2018, 09:16:37 AM
I read this article, but I want to see opinions, would you sell all your alts to have only bitcoin now ? I don't think this is recommended

https://cointelegraph.com/news/buy-bitcoin-sell-your-altcoins-says-pioneering-wall-street-blockchain-analyst
Personally, I never plan on investing in alts for long term anyway, as for me; they have always only been a way to at least increase my bitcoin stash through trading. As it is, except for few of them, their life totally somehow depends on bitcoin and in the case where bitcoin is really increasing hugely or decreasing hugely, they always get beaten so bad, so in that case, unless I am investing in a project where I know that there is a great future for it, I would rather be holding more of btc instead.
1425  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin vs world economy on: May 29, 2018, 07:56:55 AM
well, I think that in the future, bitcoin will have its place in the world economy. Right now, people try to prove that it is one of the biggest inventions of the humankind. Many of them want bitcoin to be used as the main currency daily. I hope that it will come true some day
It definitely will and with the way things are going, I am sure the place is gradually being fixed as we get to see a lot of news on big investors wanting to come into the space. So far, we have been seeing some interesting development in the space and a lot of enthusiasts springing up with more possibility of us seeing a lot of people using bitcoin as a currency or a safe haven for keeping their funds in the long run where there is a crash in the fiat system.

All these things will count on how bitcoin will evolve but thinking the global economy ruled by the fiat system is going to have an effect ? That is a big NO for me.
1426  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins hold to moon 1 year? on: May 29, 2018, 06:26:19 AM
I'm looking to invest in a trustworthy Altcoin with a good team and project that I can hold for 1 years. Do you have any suggestions for what I should invest in and why? 

Check out Bankera.com
very impressive ICO but presale is already over. Tokens will be listed on HitBTC soon so I recommend you don't miss out.
I wonder why some tokens just get listed most of the time on HitBTC, when there are simply other trading platforms they can easily make use of with all the HitBTC review flying around.

Well, do not let me divert from the main topic, the OP is going to be getting huge suggestions here but instead, I feel he should read articles online and probably make use of coinmarketcap to check some of the top 100 projects he can invest in. That should be the best bet for any investor who is new rather than just gambling on the opinion that people give out on public forums.
1427  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Starbucks is accepting Crypto! on: May 28, 2018, 04:03:21 PM
Wow, really?) The future is just behind us, soon we will be able to pay for even bread or carwash by crypto, easy, privatly. I heard about that some places started accepting crypto, but Starbucks is huge!
Correct me if I am wrong, but this sounds more like a service that purse.io has been rendering for a very long time now, so it is not like it is something new. However, having more of these services is not a bad thing, at least for numerous gift cards and exchanging them for cryptocurrency is not a bad one. Good that it allows multiple gift cards which is one great comparison I can see compared to the platform I mentioned, and I really hope it will make some waves in the long run.
1428  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I invest only in ICOs on: May 28, 2018, 03:30:18 PM
Hi guys , I am a begginner in the crypto world , after a long study of the market , rules and regulations research. I am ready to start inversting . First stop that catched my interest is orbis https://orbistransfer.com . Because it has paypal and card purchase . No kyc and country restrictions so I can buy it from US. $500 dollars allocated .
Any other promising icos ? What do you recomend.

Update. btt link for who wants to review my first choice : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3844192.0
Must be a piece of advice. Do only what you think is best for you and a lot of people here going to be giving you advise because they want to increase their post count to be able to meet up with their signature or bounty campaign, but not because they really want to give you a quality advice.

I am not conversant with the orbis ICO, but as long as you are sure you have checked the team and they have some pretty good experience and ready to work, and you are pleased with the working product, then you should be fine. ICO is a lot of risk, and you really want to be careful asking for opinions on a public forum.
1429  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is this right time to re-enter into Bitcoin? on: May 28, 2018, 03:44:24 AM
If you sold your bitcoin last year and you gain profit and you want to re enter again bitcoin I said it is good IDEA like today the price down again at $8000 and for sure many peoplr again buy bitcoin so anytime the price will increase again and you gain profit.
I believe price has gone down enough, although a lot still believe that $7200 is still knocking but the truth is that the market is crazy and highly volatile and could fall in both ways at any time. It has gone low as much as possible that anyone should be considering buying but no one can actually give you something right since they obviously cannot know how things will eventually turn out even if you buy now which is why a lot of people always set themselves into a state of panic by trying to trade when they do not even know how to.
1430  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What you should do when you lose most of money? on: May 28, 2018, 02:51:55 AM
Although in the name of trading and investment are risky to task , because there is no guarantee that you'll win ,for the first time  ,,because loses or win  its part of the game when you play,( specially in trading market or investment from decentralized money,)But the essence of thinking always positive the are most important thing to set our mind when we loses a huge of money..because its only one thing to move on in the past and start from new life and perspective..
The fact that it is risky, most people know how risky it is and still trade without some good knowledge of what they are doing is what baffles me mostly anyway. The rate at which a lot of people end up screwing up their funds and losing so much is because they are nonchalant and they just want to do everything quickly and start earning huge bucks immediately. The fact is, for those who rush into trading, they will always rush out with huge loss at the end of the day and there is no doubt about that.

It is a normal thing to lose some little amount once in a while but how much you lose and your profit to loss ratio is what actually determines. The thing is that a lot of people really do not know how to trade or the basic knowledge to go about it and at the end they end up losing so much out of emotion and panic, when things are not really going their way. As long as you have a plan, you will never lose more than you should and you will always know what to do at every particular point in time.
1431  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hello traders on: May 27, 2018, 05:47:21 AM
Many people get into trading just because others do it and without any actual knowledge about it , or proper training and then lose their money, that's we always hear the same numbers, 97% of the traders lose and only 3% succeed from it.

When you get into anything, not just trading anything new, you have to know the background of it and a proper knowledge, willing to learn and keep learning, if you can do that, you actually can become a successful trader, Learn from every source you can and do a lot of demo trading to build confidence and keep winning.
Yeah, in fact a lot of people just hear that people are making a lot of bucks from trading and they wish they would be able to make a lot of bucks as well.

Funny enough, they always refuse to ask themselves that those who are trading well and making those huge profit must have been doing it right but instead of knowing how they ended up doing it right, you will just hear someone saying all they need to do is to learn from experience and I wonder how far or long that is going to take them before they even get frustrated.
1432  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Keep these things in mind when you are into crypto world on: May 27, 2018, 04:52:02 AM
In the crypto world there are certainly many risks if we really do not understand of the certain things, well and not just to participated on ICO only, because generally in the crypto.. we should be smarter also clever to adapt on its development along with reviewing of the various things.
Yeah, huge level of risk and one thing that a lot of people really cared less about in their initial stage in this world and that turned them into weak hands who always end up selling at loss most of the time. This is still an early phase and the volatility is huge and this is one single characteristic one must fashion in even before investing at all. It is always a smart move not to get greedy at any point in time and that would help not to get emotional as well.

the big risks that will be faced if going into the world of crypto will definitely feel the loss, but it is likely that we can easily generate profits if you continue to focus on the field and spend a lot of time to get a chance to get a very promising advantage.
It is necessary for anyone coming into the crypto world to consider the risk involved first and by that they will be able to make good decisions even in how they are buying and when they should be taking profit at any point in time. Understanding of the nature of this crypto world itself is very important and that is the only way one can do things without getting emotional at any point in time.
1433  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What is the most critical moments in Cryptocurrency and Bitcoin history on: May 27, 2018, 04:13:29 AM
Hi All Members,

Most critical moments in Cryptocurrency history of yourself;
01. Most Painful Cry Cry
02. Happiest Grin Grin

What we do in that moments!

Appreciate your reply to newcomers for cryptocurrency industry


First most painful moment with cryptocurrency is when my tokens got stolen. My etherwallet was hacked and nothing was left for me. My happiest moment is the first time I receive tokens and eventually cash it out and use it for payment of ny bills, paid a lot of debts and buy something as memorabilia.
That would really have been some really crazy moment. Funny enough I have never experienced this since I have always been crazy about security anyway. However, it is good you still ended up having some good moments in the long run with some of the tokens you have been able to get good gains from.

I have never really had a huge painful moment except when I started trading and even with all the knowledge from the things I have read on indicators and chart analysis, I still lost some couple of bucks until I gained more confidence later on, and my joyous moment was when I started doing well as a trader and can now consider myself a pro.
1434  Economy / Marketplace / Re: London-Based Fintech Startup Planning to Launch a Debit Card on: May 26, 2018, 05:38:38 PM
I think this is the kind of infrastructure desperately need to see the space grow. At the moment crypto is in the equivalent of a car in 1890 limited in speed by the lack of roads. We need to build metaphorical roads! The infrastructure projects are what I get most excited about. With this project specifically I think if they are quick enough they could be successful all I worry about is the introduction of LITEPAY. However you would think there would be space for more than one so I keep and eye out to see if they gain any traction
Yeah, we really need this,a lot in this space and for one; as long as we keep seeing developments like this coming up, the possibility of seeing mass adoption in no time will be inevitable. nevertheless, based on what you are saying with respect to your worries, it is a huge world and they will all obviously be coming with their own services and as long as there is even competition, it makes it easy for the consumers and users to get the best of the space. It is a good thing as far as I am concerned.
1435  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trading, ICO, Lending, Bounty. Which one should I do ? on: May 26, 2018, 01:55:49 PM
If you want to be a good successor in crypto and you want to make a large sum I'll advice you perticipate in bounty
Once you must make a choice in between any of these options, then there are two things which carry the most significance importance. The first one is your financial status and the second one is the knowledge which you have regarding the things. I will go for trading but only when you are this much capable and that otherwise, it is better to go for participating in either signature or bounty campaign.
Financial status is not actually applicable to bounty as you can easily start that at any point in time, and the only status you need for that is the availability of resources to achieve the objective of any of those bounties and get something good from them. Personally, bounty is the easiest among all of them that the OP mentioned, and as long as you can easily familiarize yourself with the environment, picking a good project to do a bounty for will even gets easy.

From my experience i think better will be for every newbie if they start bounty firstly.Then he can do everything when he will get some rewards from bounty.Bounty is the only way where you can earn bitcoin or eth without invest.When you will get handsome amount of dollars then you can invest in an ico or trading or lending.
Bounty can only be easy for a newbie if the resources are there to pull it off. Bounty also have its own requirement, but it is the easiest and the safest to do without much risk involved except if a project fails or ends up going rogue. For bounties, you can easily make good bucks from tokens, and if you even have some special skills like writing and all, it makes things easier for you at the end of it all.
1436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: thinking quiting after lose on gambling. on: May 26, 2018, 07:21:05 AM
It is very common for people who suffer so much defeat that they have a thought to quit such gambling. But, they still play. It is just a despairing thought of those who suffer more defeat than winning games. It happened once, but at that time I re-think what's wrong with the strategy that I apply in gambling. And well, a lot of mistakes I made and I did some research to fix it.
Greed, this element pinches them again and again and they start gambling even after losing so long. These people are victimized of all the facts that a gambling have in it. They are totally empty and they even don’t have to eat something because all the penny have been used in gambling and lost. But still, the greed to earn back money never let them go and they again start losing.

I don't know why many people are obsessed with a mindset of winning and trying to milk casinos. Lol. These casinos are business entities built to gain profit with a house edge. And gamblers are supposed to be there to have fun and entertainment.
No doubt casinos are totally made for business purpose rather than the place where all come and enjoy for some specific time. They are fooling their customers all the time and the people are thinking that they are very sincere to them. One reason that I find about casinos for which they are doing business all the time is that they have to pay heavy taxes to their governments.
Fooling their customers ? No casino is fooling anyone, as most gamblers are always the ones fooling themselves. There has never been any casino that would promise any gambler heaven on earth or that they are going to end up winning big, the decision is left for the gambler to know what exactly he is doing with his own gambling activity.

Nevertheless, they already know how the human mind can be like when it comes to greed and that is why it has and will keep being one business venture that will keep booming.
1437  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: May 26, 2018, 05:46:52 AM
Experience, skills tactics and tricks and of course positive thinking are the tools of winning the game. If you use this entire thing affectively and luck also favors you no doubt you will win the bet. Experienced gambler has good hands on gambling and his winning chances increases with positive thinking.
Experience can only help you not to stay above your limit and be ready to discipline yourself at all cost, and on the other hand, skill can only be applicable just to some few games and you really do not want to apply any skill on games related to dice anyway. In that case, luck is still one of the main things one should only rely on but not even too much.

The only thing that can give a gambler an edge is not even thinking they can win so much from gambling and even if they end up doing, it will help them appreciate it the more rather than end up blowing it all away into gambling all over again.

Thinking positively however in gambling will affect your emotions when things are not going the way you assume it to be in the positive lane and that can make you to start making some crazily terrible decisions if care is not taken. Positive thinking can come in, but you really also want to be careful in the decisions you are making as they can be affected by being too positive.
1438  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Effects of Gambling on: May 26, 2018, 04:58:15 AM
It's interesting that you are pointing that *Can make money easily (not guaranteed), but *Big loss without any marks Cheesy
Gambling is such thing where everything is possible, but we should not to forget one simple principle -  the casino never loose.
everything from good to worst can happen. in addition to the bad stories of gambling, a lot of sweet stories. so the number of gamblers continues to increase almost every time and it will continue to regenerate to the point where the gambling house is gone   Grin
How many of the sweet stories can we really say though, except for those who actually got so lucky that they ended up winning some pretty huge jackpot but most gamblers never always come out with any sweet story to tell at the end as it is either they end up an addict or they could not control themselves, and while trying to recover losses, they ended up losing everything.
Basically, some who even had some sweet story to tell always end up being greedy and gambling their winning all away.
1439  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Criteria of a good gambler on: May 25, 2018, 08:43:36 AM
I think that all investing in the hope of rapid growth is not the best strategy. Everything else depends on the type of gambling, you need to be able to think and not make decisions with your feelings. The poker game, and successful players clearly reflects my approach to gambling.
A good gambler will not bet all his money on a single game, he will also know when to call it quits even when he is losing a lot of money.
That's what you called money management, you aim for long run than instant success because as a gambler we do not have the edge.
We can only win if we work smart, being emotional is a big hindrance, we should also think positive and at the same time, we have to do some effort.
That is actually just being wise! Money management can come into other things, but with gambling you should at least not gamble with what you cannot afford to lose. A lot of times people have heard that particular word but they still keep getting greedy anyway and investing so much hoping that the more you put in, the better their chances are until they lose it all.

Gambling with too much money sets one in for more emotion and high level of risk and no one should even be thinking towards this direction at all.
1440  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin has dropped so invest more on: May 25, 2018, 07:55:03 AM
From one point, it's good, many users = strong support.
But at the same time if people buy and just to hold, that won't help much. The overall marketcap is already huge, but the rates are just going down
We are still in a huge bear market though, but for someone who is planning to go long, I want to believe this is a good time to be considering buying. The market has been in a steep slope for a while now with the huge selling impulse, and who knows, it may go lower, it may bounce anytime soon, but I guess only time will tell. For those who are looking at the future and what they stand to gain then, it may be time to be distributing the buying order bit by bit so as to at least be on the better side of things.
