Hi All,
I just configured my Ledger and I wanted to confirm a few things with you..
1) What is contract data and how should you configure it?
2) What is Fido U2F ? Should I use it?
3) I transfered TRX to my ledger.. I though I would be able to view my balances like on the ledger Bitcoin wallet. Is this possible?
Thanks
1. To be able to manage your funds though MEW or MyCrypto you should turn it on. 2. You can secure you funds even more using U2F security token. I suppose it doesn't needed in most situation. But if you have more than $1M at the ledger it's good thing to use. 3. Any ERC20 tokens could be managed only through MEW or MyCrypto (you need to turn on Browser support as well as Contract data). But if you need just to watch your balance you may do it at etherscan.io. Just paste your public address at the search field and press enter.

Give or take, how long do you wait to receive your coins? At what point do you start to become suspicious?
Of course it depends on a particular crypto and current load situation. Last time I have very cheap (<$1) and fast (<10min) transactions with ETH, ETC, LTC and BTC. I guess it's mostly because of the correction...

Hi, Just wanted to share this as some people may not know yet that you can run MEW locally. This should protect you from hijacked URLs and possible vulnerabilities of the MEW server where the webinterface is hosted. This is the official guide on how to run MEW locally: https://myetherwallet.github.io/knowledge-base/offline/running-myetherwallet-locally.html(If you don't trust the link you can also find it in the last page of the instructions if you open the MEW website for the first time) To download it just go to the ORIGINAL MyEtherWallet-Website and click on "Github: Latest Release" in the lower right corner. There you can download "etherwallet-vX.XX.X.X.zip" (from the official github!). However this DOESN'T PROTECT you from MALWARE on your computer! So keep your computer free from malware, don't download any warez or visit suspicious links etc.(Maybe running it on a second, fresh partition which is only used for transactions etc. may be a good idea) The best way to store your coins safely would be a hardware-wallet which you should absolutely use for bigger amounts of money!Hope this thread may help someone Regards, Nestade Useful guide, especially for newbies. But still, I'm fully sure that if you have at least $500 in crypto it's absolutely necessery to buy and use hardware wallet. This would allow to keep all funds safely without any worry.

This topic was created on December 30, 2017 and at that time there were really slow and expensive transactions. But now bitcoin has been improved and all the problems problems are almost solved. Yesterday I sent a few coins with a very small transaction fee. I think this is a very big step forward.

I am agree with you, the finished product is an ideal condition for investment, but greater volatility and greater income can be obtained by investing in a promising idea that will later become a ready product! And Yes investment is always a risk!
+1, all investments are a big risk and you must always remember this. Sometimes IСO has a good idea and a ready product but despite this the project crashes. It depends on many factors. The availability of MVP will not give us guarantees that the project will be 100% successful.

I think that the impact of the Chinese New Year on the crypto market is very small. But I agree with you that in March the price of coins will go up. Correction lasts for a long time and people are already tired of watching how their investment portfolios are bleeding. I'm waiting for crypto spring too.

I think it's Chinese because of the huge population here
I do not agree with you because the Chinese government does not yet have an unambiguous viewpoint in relation to IСO. In the summer of 2017 they wanted to ban it and then they decided not to do that. I would choose for IСO country that is positive about crypto. For example, Japan, Switzerland.

I do not trade on five but on three main exchanges. For the vote I choose: 1. Bitrex 2. Binance 3. Kucoin. I am sure that now they are the most reliable exchanges. I would like to trade on a decentralized exchanges ofc, but now there is no convenient one except EtherDelta/ForkDelta.

There are a lot of scam and weak projects. Some kind of obstruction just should happen, because if not the market will choke on pretty soon and a really grand correction happens (I suppose it will be this summer).

Just a week ago I found that EtherDelta has been forked and the new DEX is called ForkDelta. If has open sourse and uses the same contact as EtherDelta. And while ED has a low of performance issues now ForkDelta works perfectly. What are your thoughts about the new DEX and which one of them will win in this duel?
I didn't know about that, thanks for information. I can't notice any difference between them at the moment, but the fact that they have the same smart contract (i.e. order book) is awesome. Now we have some kind of choice if one of them has some issues.

I think it's a very low forecast for three months. There is an oppotunity to grow much higher for BTC and the whole market. I guess we'll see another huge surge at the middle-end of the spring after that there could happen very deep correction and many weak projects will naturally die.

You will only know the value of the coins you are holding if you made much effort to earn it. The same way goes to bounties, if you have made much effort to complete the task required to get such a small stake then you will realize that it is never easy to earn such token/coins. By then it is on your decision to sell the coins/tokens you have whenever it is available or just hodl it waiting for its value to increase.
It always depends on situation and the strategy. For example the lack of money for living forces bounty hunters to sell their rewards at very low prices. But if you have some funds for living and you can afford not to sell your tokens - it'd be much better for you and for the market as well.

We should be prepared for the fact that periodically there will be negative news about the crypto market. So we should also understand that these are just attempts to manipulate the crypto market. China will never give up crypto =))

Is the time right to invest in ethereum or is it at a bad time? It's a good idea atm. Take a look at this chart https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/#dominance-percentage and try to see the similarity between the beginning of 2017 and 2018. If we extrapolate this chart according to the history ETH dominance rate will surpass the bitcoin's one pretty soon. It means that ETH cap will surpass the BTC's one as well. As soon as this happens I'd think about moving back to BTC.

It wont affect XRP's price because it will only remain a FUD if there is no official statement from western union itself.Stop shilling this centralized coin,you like kissing banker's ass then go ahead invest with this manipulated coin when your money got burned do not blame us people who warned you.You can get into the hyped coin but i suggest you should get out fast while you still can because you might be trapped with this shitcoin. I think so too. We need to check the information several times before it would become true. Since there is no statements from WU about this partnership it's just one more FUD.

Recently I recieved the mail from BelugaPay I like it. It's a big step forward to achieve investors trust.

To be honest I like MyCrypto a little bit more. It has better GUI IMO. But it's just the matter of preference. I guess MyCrypto will develop much faster and attract more and more people.

To be honest I never saw so detailed manual about bounties. It definitely worths to read if you are a bounty hunter, it would be useful even for signature campaigns participants. Thank you and take my merit

EOS looks more promising now. Many people pin great hopes on it. I like Waves too. But for some reason, there is little ICO on this platform. It is not popular. And I think the growth of capitalization will be rather slow.
Fully agree. EOS is a pretty young and promising project and I guess that it will truly take its own market since summer 2018. I don't like WAVES marketing strategy. As for me it's too quiet. Plus WAVES has a very few projects for its time of existing.

At first look 24.2% is a pretty big tax, but if we take into consideration the daily/monthly volume it would be clear enough that this rate is pretty good. I'm sure that this step could play the major role in worldwide crypto development.
