I doubt that having $10k to invest as a newbie would be a smart move to begin with. If you are newbie, you should start investing with like 500 dollars at most, buy one ethereum for example that is around those prices and that is good enough for you to start. That way you could always invest some more later on.

Assuming a newbie has $10k they want to invest, I would say buying 500 dollar worth of etheruem one day, doing it again a week later, doing it again a week later and doing it like that for 2 months basically would mean 8 ethereum by the end of it and you would spend $4k of that. After that you start doing the same for bitcoin, you buy 500 dollar worth of bitcoin one week, and keep doing that until you run out of money. Buying once a week for 500 bucks is a smart move when you have that kind of money instead of going all in.

Why people think that laundering money is something new?! It's done before crypto, a long time before crypto! And even now with crypto you still need banks, you can't bypass them in laundering process! And of course that some criminals are using crypto, we are using crypto too, it makes many things easier!
There will be a stricter supervision, with that part I agree! Because of some random fools all of us will be monitored, and maybe it's not cool, but it's for our own safety! Do you really believe in that?
Gangs are everywhere around, we can find them in ghettos, we can find them in the white houses....well now crypto gang is coming on the stage and this gang can change everything!

its easy to hide your gambling addiction if your playing gambling online because you can go on your own room or other private places that dont have a people around it but if youv been playing orl casino people will notice you when they see you going outside .

 its still up to the willingness of addicted gambler if he want to follow what his family advices to go to the professional for mental help or not , its his own life and no one can force him not even his fam . gamblers are grown up man , they arent kids that they can easily encourage to stop

Success would particular talk about;

• Hardwork, patience, effort, mistake acceptance, doesnt chase up losses, always stick to plan.

When it comes on secret then theres no secret but there are characteristic on which someone should have because you wont survive into this market
if you do lack these kind of mindset or qualities then expect yourself to fail.

Both of them have a different purposes in this world and decentralize is one of the main key features of cryptocurrency.

People are now considering the use of cryptocurrency due to its features and we can build a lot of business through it.
Since crypto has placed a good role in the market, and both crypto and fiat are definitely good for the increase of the economy.

It depends on our risk management, Because trading is a one kind of gambling. But we have easy to get a good profit in Bitcoin in current rush hour. But those active in day trading they know how to make a good return in short period. The current market is targeting the golden egg so BTC is better egg in this year. May be those are not believe the BTC they can choose the other altcoins.

I hope you've been back early this year when the price is still cheap and able to accumulate more cryptos. Bitcoin price is now getting crazy and been multiplied multiple times.
Bitcoin has a slow recovery from $4000 (bottom) and it finally reaches its bullish stage, and we are heading to another ATH. It is likely to see that we are totally in good shape this time. If we are investing in Bitcoin early this year, we are making a huge profit this time.

The better question to ask is what moves the price of BTC?

The response is simple: supply and demand. And the players in the filed such as whales, institutions, investors etc are contributing to tipping the market of demand and supply, and what seems to be happening now is that demand is much higher. This could be to these players speculating that BTC will go up in value. This in turn creates a positive loop whereby more and more people now become interested in buying for fear of not losing out, reinforcing the cycle.

Trump has lost the election and this gambler has lost a huge amount of money. But I think he has a lot of money. Otherwise, he would not have bet on such a large amount

At least this prediction is more realistic compared to those who claims that it would hit $100K or more.
It could happen but we couldn't be so sure what if we also experience the same thing as 2017 when the price suddenly go high then falls down up to $3.8K.
I am not saying that it would repeat but we couldn't ignore that there is a possibility that it could happen.

I start to believe it'll remain primarily an investment vehicle.
LN should have made it a coin for everyday payments, but I think that its version "for everybody" will be available too late. And by too late I mean that since the institutional investors are also in, by the time it should be use for everyday payments it'll have quite a "lack of liquidity" (even knowing that it has 8 digits after the decimal point, this could be an issue, for example when banks will buy it to replace gold)

I don't think it will happen in the future, I think the opposite will happen, If there a president who going to make Crypto illegal then it's the president who is culprit or ancient   Because the current economy is based on industrial world 4.0 where many robots or internet working, so I think the right internet money today is Cryptocurrency.

Sooner or later, they will release their national cryptocurrencies.
And then the question will be, do we need Tether?
It seems to me that it will lose its meaning.

We do not need more coins to make things better, we need the ones we have to be better at what they are doing. For example we have one right now that is getting traction right? What we need is not a competition, what we need is that one to get better. However the sad fact is that unless there is a better competition, the ones we have never grow to be better.

Look at all the ICO's that was created during 2017 period, they were all copy cats of each other, so the competition doesn't always make things better neither. Which leaves us at a very difficult position, if there is no competition the ones we have do not grow, but if there is competition it doesn't guarantee something better neither, so we are left with absolutely no choice but to wait for something better to come along.

Buying cryptocurrency has no perfect time because it all depends in your own deep analysis and if you think that the price is right and affordable, then you can start buying. Just never expect to make quick profits because there is no guarantee that you will end up making profits or end up the other way. I think it's a matter of taking risks. Once you invest in crypto, expect the best and worst outcome and be ready for it.

HODLing should also depend on the situation of the user. Most users are only using this Cryptocurrency Industry as another source of income but for some, it is their job. HODLing for Lifetime is not logical since nobody got time to do everything till their old so it would be useful for them to get their money anytime they want to use it since values can either rise or drop.

if Bitcoin is used for everyday life what about the transaction fees?
when buying a box of milk it will be charged a transaction fee whether people want to use it,
they are comfortable with Fiat money without transaction fees

Last time I checked I did not have to send a photo of my genitals to play Bitcoin, apart from Bitstamp. If women are less interested that's on them. It's there waiting for them just as it is for the fellas. The vast majority of males are just as absent too.
