Dash is almost there at the $1k mark. It will be able to topple that over pretty easily in my opinion.

The movement of Dash was generated mostly in January, when the all time high in bitcoin was hit. After that the price didn't really go anywhere, it just sort of stayed at a similar spot for a while, while bitcoin went up and brought the fiat pricing up as well.

It'll be interesting to see whether Dash can break 0.1 BTC again, because $1k is easily going to be hit. Personally i think that dash has a fair chance of setting a new all time high before the new year starts.

Both of these are obviously exchanges and are not designed to store your money on. Look at what happened to btc-e, bitfinex, nice hash, and a bunch of other exchanges which got hacked and the users had to either wait out a period of time for their coins or got just completely ripped of their money. Exchanges do not allow you to access your private keys, therefore they are not ideal wallets for long term storage.

If you're just asking for which one is the superior exchange, then i'd say cryptopia at the moment.

Really you're just comparing two of the smallest and most unreliable exchanges, but since nova is going through changes right now i'd rather trust cryptopia.

Pure speculation... Actually you'd be surprised because even though dogecoin is technically just a memecoin it's still got more practical usages than half of the supposedly "legit" coins on the market right now. It's actually got a community behind it that cares, and it doesn't promise anything that is outrageous.

And if you look at the charts, doge gets pumped once a year or so. Right now we may be seeing the start of a new rally for dogecoin, with the price going from $0.001 to $0.003 or more.

Though for long term holding, i don't see much potential in dogecoin just because it has no extra features other than being a cheap means of transaction.

The admins(baryom and the other guy) decide whether or not they want to set the minimum withdrawal at a higher level, and you should have known before you deposited. you could have checked by either asking the chat if you were really this worried about the minimum withdrawal, or read the FAQ:


Bitsler is not a scam, let's make that clear though.

If their wallets are filled with small inputs that can cause transaction fees to go higher than normal just because their minimum withdrawal is really small, then obviously they are going to set a higher minimum. Plus i'm sure the minimum was there before ETH was even pumped, meaning that they haven't updated it according to fiat values.

I think that if they are just blatantly changi their terms and conditions in order to avoid paying the promo codes that they issued before, they should really be ashamed of themselves. Just because bitcoin went up, doesn't mean that their duty to fulfill their previous promises can be void.

Plus, these kind of money is probably absolutely miniscule in terms of their trading volume. They can obviously afford to pay for this.

You've gotten verified for this, and they should allow you to claim whatever balance you have with them, whether or not you got it from a coupon for free or not. They haven't stated this before you signed up and redeemed the coupon code either as it seems.

Anything could honestly happen but i think you're right. Right now everyone is on the ripple/ltc train and nobody is smart enough to realize that this is all hype, all talk, nothing else. When they do realize then they will start dumping and i doubt that kind of price level will stay up there.

But guy_wonderful if you are able to provide with some TA that would be greatly appreciated.

There is always a chance that what you said can happen, especially with BTC price rising as well. Though i personally think that it is unlikely.

I would say don't worry too much about it since price has steadily increased for the past few days and the trend is still quite upwards right now. Wait a bit and you may actually be able to cash out at a higher level than you planned to do a few days back.

I'm holding right now, buying seems to be a risky proposition to take on at this moment and i feel like i have enough BTC in the bag to ride this train if it continues to go.

I don't think that selling right now is a great strategy either, holding whatever you've got right now is the right decision to make imo.

It's obviously got some advantages but it is still quite early. Blockchain is proven technology that is known to work for years without failing, even though for blockchains, it has got fundamental limitations as to scaling efficiently for sure.

DAG based coins such as IOTA have potential, the free transactions that they offer are a great selling point in my opinion.

But they have to make sure that everything is bug free with their software and code, which is something that is not the case at the moment. Disappearing balances for no reason on their GUI and slow transactions are not a good start imo.

It is obviously their fault but these things do happen. I think it is back online now since i just executed an eos deposit without any issues and now it's got the full amount of confirmations needed. Their ETH is probably now up to date.

So no, they're not a joke but they did promise you something that did not happen(come back in a few minutes).

As for alternatives, not really sure which ones you are looking for but gdax, kraken, etc. all have ETH and fiat support. It just is up to you which one you prefer to trade on and which one you are most comfortable with holding your funds with.

You can never do so with absolute certainty. You can filter out the obvious scams, though.

If something that is:

a) Promising high returns off your investment for doing nothing
b) Promising new tech vaporware that is probably too good to be true
c) or trying to get you to invest amounts that are larger than actually needed

It's probably a bad coin to invest in, and at best case scenario, a centralized shitcoin. Btcney has mentioned bit connect and i think that's the best example at the moment, massive ponzi that is about to blow up soon.

It's obviously a common occurrence. ICOs are always a gamble and there is no guarantee whatsoever that the price of what you buy is going to go up in the future, and for tokens to go down because of speculation is definitely possible.

Initial founders cashing out could be one reason, definitely. Especially for a crappy ICO project.

But otherwise it's just supply/demand. If people don't see the project going anywhere they are more likely to dump their tokens for a loss, for the readily accessible cash.

The default amount of confirmations needed should be 6 confirmations i think. How many electrum needs before it allows you to spend the funds as confirmed, i'm not sure. It definitely could be 6*4 = 24 though since that would be the same amount of time as the bitcoin 6 confirmations.

It shouldn't bother you since after the first confirmation you'll be getting a confirmation every time a block gets mined. So you can close your electrum with a peace of mind.

Plus i'm pretty sure that you can enable spending of unconfirmed funds if you are really urgent in electrum.

There is a site that is entirely dedicated to showing stats regarding ICOs including how much ROI has been generated since the ICO based on the ICO price of the coin. NXT and IOTA are both pretty big gainers in relation to ICO price right now.

Even though ICOs can be successful, it can't be ignored that there are definitely risks involved in investing in ICOs.

There have been plenty of ICO scams including a recent one called confido, which took investor money and ran. You always have to do your own research and due diligence before you invest in anything since people are really out there for your money these days.

If you have big balls then you could potentially look into investing in some LTC. Should be obvious that it is very very risky to do so at this stage of the mania but it could still go up by 50% or more in value, nobody knows for sure.

IOTA is going down a bit right now, meaning that potentially it could be a good buy.

We've seen how strongly IOTA has performed in the past few weeks. Now that IOTA has stabilized and found its price floor, you should be able to make an easy 0.0001 BTC per IOTA in profits on your investment.

Yes. There is Nubits and BitUSD.

Nubits is decentralized and runs its own ledger whilst BitUSD relies on the Bitshares blockchain. I have no idea how nubits work since it's just so complicated but it has indeed held its value over the past few years so that's a good sign. BitUSD is generated from people shorting a particular currency.

There is also steem dollars, similar to BitUSD, but very volatile.

USDT is supposedly decentralized, but its value obviously still relies on the reserves of tether. The coins aforementioned do not.

Lucky you because now your investment in IOTA has 5x or more already.

I can't say much about suggestions because i believe in you doing your own homework. Don't rely on others to tell you about what to invest in. But i personally believe that monero may be a good time to buy in right now, so is ZCash.

Both are anonymous coins that i believe may come in handy in the future when regulations are tightening up.

These coins are not just useful for p2p, they are also very useful for very wealthy individuals to store money privately, which is extremely attractive.

Are you talking about per coin valuation or market capitalization here? If you're talking per coin then it isn't really fair since Ethereum has almost double the amount of LTC that is currently in circulation. But i still think that right now, ETH is probably deservedly more valuable.

Even after the pump LTC is only in fifth place in market cap terms while Ethereum has solidified itself in the 2nd place.

I don't really like Ethereum that much, but i guess the market have voted with their dollars when ETH overtook LTC as the consensus number two guy in crypto. So yeah, ETH is more valuable at least for now. We'll see how big LTC's pump gets though.

You're probably only saying this because LTC is on such a run recently.

If the run up never occurred you probably wouldn't be making these types of predictions right now. Let me remind you, these sort of rallies will not be long lived and cannot be sustained at such a quick pace. It'll either slow down, or crash at the end. Probably both.

For this reason, $1k USD per LTC seems very unlikely to me. There is fundamentally nothing useful that LTC has that other altcoins don't have, to be honest.

Well, lauds considers you untrustworthy for selling your account and your account could have been used for malicious purposes after it is sold if the new owner isn't honest about his business. That is why he gave you the negative trust.

There is no way of removing your negative trust, unless Lauda decides to remove it themselves.

Do some good to the community, stay active. If you can prove that you're trustworthy again i think he'll be happy to remove it eventually.

Nope. Not a chance. If bitcoin crashes it will NOT go down to 3 digits, maximum 4 digits.

I think that the pump is still not over yet at this point and we'll see a lot more increases in price right now. It'll be rare to see days where bitcoin is going down a lot right now, and for bitcoin to crash down to 4 digits is a 50% or more deduction in price and that's not going to happen overnight.

Even if all of 2018 is bearish and all, i don't think 3 digits is possible still. It's just way too big of a fall.
