"Trading courses", whether in book form or instructionals are usually scams. Why would a profitable trader sell his secrets and tech it to the public?

The course will be nothing but a basic introduction followed by an intermediary course in technical analysis that you can have for free from the internet lol.

For me personally this is not good news, such a large number of newly opened accounts in only one online wallet shows us that the majority of users are not fully aware of all the risks which come along with online wallets. But on the other side blockchain.com ( be aware this service is change domain to .com recently ) is also allows users to buy BTC&ETH, so it may be good if users just buy coins and send them to more secure wallets ( desktop&hardware ).


Yes, it is strange that only one site is get 50k new users daily which is 1,500,000 a month, and we do not see any big changes regarding the price. Blockchain service is just maybe want to show how better they are from Coinbase, they sign 50k users daily during December last year and Blockchain is doing that these days.

In my opinion this is just cheap public promotion, they may claim to adding 100k users per day - there is no way for us to know is this true.

I am not disagreeing with you but taking into account how long can take to move your crypto to fiat and then to crypto again I suppose that stable coins do give a service to those that really need it and are high volume traders but as say the problem is in the centralization of such services, if at some point it is proven there are not enough dollars or whatever the stable coin is trying to stabilize then the value of the coin will drop to zero since it is not performing its function.

Choosing to buy at lower price was not a good idea for other traders, some thought that the market is bad when a certain crypto price was on downtrend. Better stay tuned for the future updates to happen and I am confident that in the next upcoming months this year we'll be having, much crucial situations to happen. It's a strong dedication if we're going to reach our goals for the price and looking to the reality $20k can be a potential peak value.

Anxiety was often happening specially thus crucial times like the current situations we're facing right now on btc price. The downfall cannot be stopped, unless there will be faster demand that could boost up the current value of bitcoin. People aren't smart enough if they've been depressed so well and didn't think of the sudden effect behind on their personal welfare. Furthermore, the greediness came over on them not jus the anxiety reasons but rather the mentality of taking all opportunity by their own. In reality they didn't learn at all, and the scenario is in a recurring process.

A lot of this anxiety comes from people who are invested in Bitcoin with short-term goals. Some of these people might even have funded their investments with debt and this is slowly but surely creeping up to a point where they cannot do the repayments with their own capital. So my advice is for people not to fund Bitcoin investments with debt and also to shift their strategy to a long-term vision.

Also, stop looking at the price on a daily basis, because the short-term volatility will increase your anxiety. 

I don't think we can call it greed per se, knowing that there are no certain restrictions for the people in politics to invest in whatever they think will give them profit. After all, they're just people wanting to live a better life like all of us here. If anything, these people are slowly adopting into cryptocurrency and, hopefully, establish some laws which protect the interest of consumers/investors in the cryptoworld. Also, they might, finally, come up with a rather friendly definition of crypto for the benefit of all. I don't see anything wrong in here, TBH, not unless those cryptocurrencies were earned through some form of fraud etc.

I honestly can't believe people are still doing predictions on bitcoin prices. Have we not learned a thing about bitcoin on this 10 year journey we had. We are talking about bitcoin here. Not some stock or forex leverage deal we all see. This is bitcoin, it can be $2k tomorrow or $25k, no one will know what bitcoin price can be in the future, it is not something we can foresee this is nothing to do with charts, nothing to do with trends, no news, just pure hype.

But, I do read on different journals in internet but all are predicting about something unbelievable price levels for bitcoin prices in coming years. In short term it may not surprise us but in coming years we will definitely have more exciting years which may outplay the year 2017 which is being considered as one of the best year for bitcoin markets. 

It becomes a problem if they are using that Gold to manipulate the Gold price. They might be siphoning off some of that Gold or simply moving it around to artificially pump the price and then trade with this on open markets. In essence they are cooking the books and doing something else with the assets.

The thing is, nobody will ever know, because it is a highly controversial issue and the government is guarding that secret more than they are guarding their nukes. 

Cryptojacking is actually pretty common. They tend to mine Monero, because that still gives them rewards if it's done on a very large scale.
The people who are running the malware could have up to 100k slave computers in their network, generating them thousands of dollars per day/week.

It's usually pretty easy to notice too, when your CPU goes through the roof.

Running noscript is also a solution btw.

Bitcoin isn't complex at all. It's the most simplistic coin in existence, which is why people like it so much. It does all that people need, which is storing value and sending value from point A to B.

People don't need all sorts of gimmick features that no one uses anyway. It's about the quality of the tool, and the liquidity its ecosystem around it provides, and nothing comes even close to Bitcoin in that regard. The only downside of this is that altcoin whales cash out to Bitcoin, then dump Bitcoin for USD which has been a major contributor as to why Bitcoin has tanked hard this year and somewhat struggled to remain up.

there is no "entry barrier" for bitcoin so that others have lower than that. it doesn't get any lower!

altcoins don't just lack popularity, they lack utility, security, decentralization,... and have many added issues.

bitcoin will never become "world currency" but also at the same time it won't be "a few people" who own bitcoin!

I feel like you are only thinking in black and while. as it something is either 100% or 0%. which is wrong. the world is grey all the way.  you have to come to the middle.

Damn, I never thought that there are still people who think fiat currency/dollar price are tied to Gold.    The US Dollar has not been linked to Gold for the last 45 years, since president Nixon abolished that in his term as president.  

The only link to the Dollar is that it is mainly traded in US currency, so a weaker dollar makes Gold less expensive for other countries to buy it. So it is important for the US government to protect the dollar price and a shock like this, will definitely influence the dollar price and the Gold price, if this Gold did not exist. <If they say it is there and it is not, then they are messing with the supply>    

It is all about Faith/trust in the government. If there are no Gold in the vault, then the US government will lose a lot of credibility and the US citizens and the rest of the world that are using the US Dollar would lose faith in them. That little piece of paper, called the US Dollar is 100% built on the faith that people has, that the government would guarantee it's value to the bearer.

The Gold's value has little impact on what the damage would be, if it was found that there were no Gold in Fort Knox and the government knows that.  

Bitcoin is not outdated, the people saying this is probably invested in another coin and they want other people to invest in that, so they have to smack talk Bitcoin for those people to invest in all these other crappy coins. Some people also wants to brag that they are always better than other people, so they will say crap like this to boost their ego.

Bitcoin is constantly being "updated" and still years ahead of it's closest competition. Let those idiots invest in other Alt coins, they will soon learn that it was a massive mistake.
