Recently Bloomberg posted the information that it took hackers less than 10 years to steal over 14% of all existing Bitcoins and Ethereum from the wallets of their holders. The total sum they have stolen is more than $1,2 billion! How to protect yourself from hackers attacks? Are you afraid of this stuff?

Cryptocurrency-related advertisements have stopped appearing on Chinese search engine Baidu and social media platform Weibo, amidst reports of China’s government tightening cryptocurrency and Initial Coin Offering regulations on Sunday, Feb. 4.

The Financial Times of the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) was told today, Feb. 4, that China will further increase regulatory pressure on cryptocurrency exchange sites and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), Chinese news site Sina reported.

Seems cryptocurrency will not recover so much in a short time...

Hi all,
I am a relative newbie but have remained pretty calm during the difficult last week or so. The markets are falling significantly again, is this still relatively normal and is the best advice just to HODL? Moving forward I think I will set stop losses on all holdings to protect my capital against falls like this.
Thanks

No whitepaper no roadmap everything transparent and clear: we, as crypto enthousiats, want to retire early and we diversify and invest in many coins and icos having a hope we become millionairs if, and only if, the ico or developper team was nt scamming or implementing bullshit in the roadmap that ends up in most of the times being a disaster to bag holders when the tasks in the roadmap are not fullfilled. So we have decided to create the early retirement token which its sole task is very clear in its own name. We want to implement the token in as much exchanges as possible and we want to take benefit of the arising awerness of the cryptocurrencies especially in the last year and for the promising years that are coming.
How to retire early?
It’s easy and simple, buy ERT and hold it until the amount of ERT you have reaches a level where it makes you richer than ever.
After completing the ico successfully and implementing the token in many exchanges we will work on getting our token “spendable anywhere, anytime” through partnerships with crypto cards companies to make it easier for you and for the other retired people to enjoy their wealth without having the need to sell the tokens each time they want to buy a lambo or spend time in bahamas.

Website will be launched soon and etherdelta listing afterwards.

Greetings, friends!
I spent 14 hours to writing and translating this article, and it covers all of my experience, starting in 2013 year. Please forgive me for my bad English. I hope that this article will be useful for each of you, friends.

Today I decided to collect all my experience related to crypto-investment in one article.
There is a lot of information and it is very voluminous, but I will try to present it more abstractly and briefly.
So, the security of crypto investment can be divided into two sections: technical and analytical. Do not neglect any of them. Perhaps for some of you these recommendations will seem obvious, but for sure everyone will find something useful for themselves, especially beginners.

Technical factors - storage and trading - where and how is the best?

📌Wallets. It is reasonable to store crypto-currencies on desktop and hardware wallets (something like Ledger). Sometimes it is not very convenient, but then nobody can "freeze" your savings and they will be controlled only by you. It is not necessary to store crypto-currencies in wallets with centralized control of funds. It is better to use the generally recognized opensource-wallets, which have already earned the trust of the community;

📌Backup. Never forget about backing up your wallet, for example wallet.dat files, pin codes and private keys! Perhaps, it's worth duplicating the backup copy in the cloud storage - but only in an encrypted form;

📌Operating system. To store crypto currency on desktop wallets, it is more reasonable and safer to use Linux operating systems, Ubuntu for example;

📌Passwords. Use complex passwords consisting of at least 8 characters (more characters are preferred), including numbers and letters of different registers. You can come up with a mnemonic rule to not forget such a complicated password. Additional security measures - using the on-screen keyboard to enter a password, as well as two-factor authentication;

📌Exchanges. When trading with crypto currency, try not to store large sums there, and transfer exactly the same amount of funds as you need to conduct a particular transaction, can with a small margin in case of a sharp change in the exchange rate. Why? Because many exchanges are unavailable at the most inopportune moment, and many are completely rapidly closed, while others are periodically the target of hacker attacks. Try not to use the services of centralized illegal exchanges without extreme necessity, especially those that have already proved themselves from the bad side (they were "hacked" or closed for a long period). It is better to use decentralized crypto-exchange exchanges, such as Bitshares and Etherdelta.

After this realization I had to give up on Ripple completely, I sold my shares and am out of Ripple, I need a company that will go down with me and rise with me not one that rises no matter what while I fund them and I very likely may get screwed while they get successful. Open your eyes if you're investing in them.... you are investing in their XRP not Ripple as their employee quickly pointed out to me on twitter. Even regarding their block-chain technology big competitors are coming on the scene soon. The main point though is I need a company that will go down with me and rise with me not one that rises no matter what while I fund them and take all the risk. Why can a company I invest in be successful without me being successful as well, how is that even a possiblity!?! I'm out this is a complete scam and fraud it was obviously knowingly created that way.

DO NOT INVEST IN XRP

Facebook Gives Crypto Ads the Thumbs Down.

Facebook has issued an outright ban. As of a new ruling issued on January 30, “ads must not promote financial products and services that are frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices, such as binary options, initial coin offerings, or cryptocurrency”. The move is sure to be welcomed by Facebook users and bitcoin enthusiasts alike, who recognize that these adverts do little to promote the benefits of cryptocurrency.

I bought Paragon Coin the first time in December for a very discounted price Vs its ICO price.

I filled a big fat bag at $0.20. I thank my friend for giving a sound investment advice.

The best thing is even after a massive market dive, I'm 2x of my investment. I was at a time in Dec end- early Jan 4x to 5x of my investment but I held this coin tight. The reason being:

1) An effective upcoming roadmap

2) Low coin circulating supply

3) A strong social standing for its founder - Jessica Versteeg

Which are the best competitors to Ethereum, and why do you think so?

(I know on top of my head that Cardano and IOTA try to challenge Ethereum,
although they still haven't proved much from my understanding?)

Viberate's founders - Matej, Vasja and Umek - started their musical journey together when Umek, a world famous DJ, asked them to be his managers. Together they conquered the club scene, and Umek is still considered one of the best techno DJs in the world. They could have lived peaceful lives with steady and comfy careers in music, kept touring in Miami, Ibiza and Las Vegas, but noooo. They had to go and found a startup, even though they are in their forties with families, mortgages and dogs. But isn’t this what life is all about? - New challenges, new exciting paths and not knowing what the future will bring. We drink to that.
