1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How is ETH now? on: September 21, 2018, 04:45:20 PM
Ethereum's price has been less volatile lately compared to 6 months ago. As the price becomes more stable, consumers are starting to think about investing in Ethereum again.  Take a look at the questions we frequently get about Ethereum as an investment or a trading opportunity:

Is Ethereum currently a buy or a sell?
Should I sell or hold Ethereum today, if I purchased it 3 months ago?
Is Ethereum a good buy/investment opportunity?

3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple will be great again on: September 10, 2018, 02:55:32 PM
RippleLabs strives to maintain the pace of innovation on its platform. Tipping is now possible on the platform after the integration of Coil with XRP TipBot, so now content creators can receive donations from supporters by integrating Coil on their platform.
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Will Monero become next BTC? on: September 10, 2018, 02:38:11 PM
Currently, Monero is the 10th largest coin by market capitalization. Crypto miners are attracted to Monero because it has emerged as the most profitable altcoin in the past few months.

A research firm Satis Group, which forecasts the cryptocurrency market and the fate of individual cryptocurrencies, published a reporting stating that Monero could be worth $18,000 within the next five years. That represents a more than an 18,000% increase from its present value, which stands at just over $106.

ShapeShift CEO Erik Voorhees said that the bear market for Bitcoin is not over yet.  ThinkMarkets chief market analyst Naeem Aslam thinks similarly and believes that speculators have unnecessarily intensified the downtrend by overselling Bitcoin in the global exchange market. "Bitcoin price: still bearish, despite some positive developments"

waiting for a good time to buy BTC again...
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How is Tezos now? on: September 06, 2018, 02:51:50 PM
Tezos' is a blockchain project that aims to offer "the world’s first 'self-amending' cryptocurrency". Its 2017 initial coin offering raised $232 million, the largest for such an offering to that date.

The Tezos foundation is working on strengthening the security of its cryptocurrency. It will issue financial grants to research institutions for the development of blockchain technology and smart contracts.

One can purchase a Tezos coin on various exchanges such as Gate.io, Gatecoin, and HitBTC. It can't be purchased directly using US dollars. So, one has to buy first buy Ethereum or Bitcoin through an exchange dealing in US dollars such as Coinbase, Gemini or Changelly.  Also, China Electronic Information Industry Development Department (CCID) has announced that it will add Tezos to their list. "

Do you think it will become better?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Cardano vs. Ethereum on: September 06, 2018, 02:38:56 PM
Cardano has become a prominent coin in the crypto-sphere and is the largest threat to Ethereum. Its platform use case bears a lot of potential, which became particularly apparent after the introduction of the Marlowe application.

In order to execute financial contracts, the Marlowe application targets the financial sector, which is akin to Peyton Jones. Currently, Ethereum dominates in escrow services but Marlowe provides a better value proposition compared to it.

From: "Is Cardano catching up with Ethereum?"

How do you think? Will Cardano be great?
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How is ETH now? on: September 03, 2018, 03:40:49 PM
The spike in Ethereum's price occurred despite Baidu's anti-cryptocurrency measures.  Baidu followed Tencent and Alibaba suit by censoring online speech related to cryptocurrencies and restricting access to crypto-focused forums and discussion boards.  The company cited the laws, regulations, and policies as the main reasons for this censorship. Many popular cryptocurrency chatrooms, including the famous “Digital Currency Bar” and “Virtual Currency Bar" were blocked by Baidu.

9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Zcash is making progress and it is undervalued on: August 30, 2018, 03:21:03 PM
Zcash was issued with a goal to introduce privacy in blockchain transactions. It hides transaction details and ensures the privacy of its users by leveraging the zk-SNARKS protocol (based on zero-knowledge proof).

Unlike bitcoin which takes 10 minutes to generate a block, ZCash can do it in 2.5 minutes.

Do you think Zcash is undervalued?
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Stellar Lumens is crazy on: August 27, 2018, 03:29:02 PM
Stellar is a platform that connects banks, payments systems, and people. Integrate to move money quickly, reliably, and at almost no cost.

The digital coin is positioned third among the most popular cryptocurrencies for Bitcoin IRA, which is a platform that amalgamates digital assets with retirement accounts of individuals. Besides, Shift Markets has entered into a partnership with Lightyear which will support the integration of the Stellar technology in the cryptocurrency market. "Stellar Lumens: the bull case"

11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Litecoin will rise more? on: August 16, 2018, 02:41:20 AM
Litecoin is removing barriers to mass usage.  A new plugin released by Coinbase will simplify the process in which merchants accept the cryptocurrency payments online.

It is now possible to trade Litecoin over Telegram, an encrypted messenger app. Telegram users can send commands to check their LTC balance and send LTC to a wallet or email ID.

LTC transactions will soon be enabled via text messages so that customers with a poor internet connection can trade the crypto.

12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Will the bearish trend of EOS continue? on: August 12, 2018, 01:57:26 PM
EOS price is below the 12-day exponential moving average (EMA), as well as below the 26-day EMA, which is an indication the bearish market trend could continue.

However, there are some good news in the EOS' ecosystem. A blockchain startup Havven, which offers cross-blockchain payments, is going to bring its stable coin, i.e., a cryptocurrency tied to a stable asset, to the EOS network.  The startup aims to issue USD on the Ethereum as well as EOS network, thus enabling cross blockchain payments. The stable coin will adjust its supply according to market shifts, so as to maintain the price of a fiat currency.

How do you think? Will the bearish trend continue for much longer?
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will NEO become strong? on: August 11, 2018, 02:05:48 PM
With the upcoming NEO 3.0 upgrade, the network speed will increase remarkably which will enhance the number of transactions per second (TPS). Currently, NEO's TPS is 1,000, which is already much higher Ethereum's or Bitcoin's TPS.

A sports-betting decentralized exchange (DEX)  known as Block Sports is built on the NEO blockchain. The platform wants to enable head-to-head betting functionality and formalize real-life wagers between two individuals on the NEO network.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple will be great again on: August 10, 2018, 03:18:32 PM
Today, most of the top altcoins are more efficient or usable than Bitcoin. Ripple is venturing into Bitcoin's space as a base currency at a faster rate than other cryptos. Many leading exchanges such as DCEX and Unocoin in India have expressed their intent to incorporate Ripple as their base currency, and some have moved towards implementing it. https://www.finstead.com/bite/Ripple-price-analysis-prediction-august-7-2018

Ripple is so cool.
15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / How much will SEC desicion on bitcoin ETF affect Bitcoin? on: August 09, 2018, 03:29:16 AM
Bitcoin price fell below $6,500 support level against the US Dollar.  There is a strong buying interest near $5,850 which is indicative of an eventual upward move.

Bitcoin fell sharply on Wednesday because the SEC postponed its decision on whether it would approve a bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) proposed by VanEck and SolidX.  This is VanEck's third attempt to push a Bitcoin ETF through. "Bitcoin's abyss: when will the bleeding stop?"

How do you think? How much will SEC desicion on bitcoin ETF affect Bitcoin?

The cryptocurrency market seems to have hurt its investors enough and is showing humble signs of recovery. This is great news for crypto enthusiasts, who can finally start thinking about buying into some new coins and maybe even about opening their Blockfolio app again.

18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How's Cardano now? on: August 03, 2018, 02:45:15 PM
Cardano has struggled recently despite the buzz that it is ready to take up Ethereum.  The platform itself is very promising: it aims to become a scalable and secure smart contracts solution.  Some of its prominent features include a working paper wallet and a proof-of-stake algorithm (Ouroboros is the first verified and secure proof-of-stake algorithm).

A short-term rise in Cardano's price is likely to occur if it gets listed on Coinbase. The creators of Cardano are very ambitious, intending to make an impact in every sphere of the global economy.

What is your idea?
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Will Litecoin surpass Bitcoin? on: July 29, 2018, 11:35:20 PM
Litecoin is becoming an alternative for Bitcoin, as it increasingly serves as a transaction medium for many businesses. The Litecoin Foundation has succeeded in convincing various high-level merchants to accept LTC as a payment method.

The development of Flexa can further accelerate this. Flexa is a one-tap payment method for execution of microtransactions, so users won't have to route payments through banks or card providers. It has good security features and thus users won't have to worry about protecting their private keys.

Do you think so?
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Classic might surpass ETH in a few years on: July 26, 2018, 02:51:47 PM
Ethereum Classic touts decentralization and transparency as its strong points--and SEC made a verdict the altcoin is not a security. This leaves no room for backroom deals, making it similar to the Bitcoin platform.  Relative to Ethereum, Ethereum Classic is gaining in popularity.
