Bitcoin cannot be truly stopped without a global catastrophe that wipes out pretty much all electricity on the planet.
There are many things which could cause the value of Bitcoin to decrease; but it is nearly impossible for Bitcoin to be completely stopped.
In my opinion the way to hurt Bitcoin the most would be to buy an enormous amount and artificially sustain the price at ridiculous levels; get mining difficulty insanely high; and then unload your coins. If the market crashes enough miners will be unprofitable and shut down; causing blocks to not be processed.
However it would be possible in such an emergency scenario to hard-fork Bitcoin to lower the difficulty. So an attack like this would cost billions and there is no guarantee Bitcoin wouldn't just route around it.
Even if this scenario is to play out like you have mentioned which I am not depicting the fact that the result will end up as such but at this stage it will be hard for anyone to just buy an enormous amount right now and unload all of a sudden cause that itself will cause the individual a whole lot. However, like you said, there will always be a way out even if such scenario happens. |

Bitcoin has very bright prospect in the future. Because now is era technology and bitcoin able to facilitate financial activities of people between countries with very practical.
I don’t know why people keep on doubting the future of bitcoin. Don’t they know the history and resent of bitcoin? The way bitcoin is continuously ruling the crypto market and crypto kingdom, this clearly shows that bitcoin has the potential of leadership and is going to survive best in the crypto market. Bitcoin at present is the highly demanded coin of the market which clearly indicates the bright future. |

For me i like to buy more crypto especially when i know if it will gonna drop or gonna rise, it's really the best if you know all the patterns (will take you ahwile because there are so much patterns).
I think this entire thing you get to know with experience. Most the new traders get panic at the time when they see prices going down instead of cashing that opportunity. I think that time is the best time to make a wise decision of earning as many Bitcoins as you can. All you need is to remain patient. Being a good trader price fall and price up both are the best opportunity for trader. Because whenever the price fall in the market then an experienced trader start investing and getting coins more and more coins and when a price increase in the market then an experienced trader start selling their coins so both the case are profitable for a trader. |

Since I looked bitcoin value in dollar so yes it's affect my gambling habit when bitcoin value getting expensive.
I'm wonder if someone able still bet 1 btc per bet just like happen on three years ago, but yes...when you want profit, dare to take the risk or you got nothing !
I bet proportionally to the Dollar price too, so it affects my game a lot and more than this, when I see BTC price is too volatile I prefer to don't gamble, better to wait the prices become stable again, the volatility can bring a nice opportunity of guaranteed profit that gambling doesn't offer us, so it would be a waste of BTCs to gamble while the prices are changing too much. I think there are some crazy guys that still bet 1 BTC sometimes at once. $4000 is nothing for millionaires/billionaires.  It is really amazing to see people gambling with bitcoin like it was not enough to waste fiat on this insane activity. I am not criticizing anyone but the game itself. Maybe, some people will hate my words but no one will dare to deny the fact that gambling is useless and dangerous game. Spending a precious asset on it for the sake of few fun moments is not clever. |

During 2015 I heard from my friend That time I didn't show any interest towards Bitcoin. I regret now.I forget it. I met my old friend last month he once again introduce me Bitcoin and I decide not to miss this opportunity and now responding in this forum.
Oh that is something sad to hear. It is so hard to accept the fact that if we would have met a friend in like 2011 or 2012 or so then we got into bitcoin, now we become billionaires. I happened to meet a friend who always talk about bitcoins and thus I was impressed by what actually bitcoins are and see now I am earning something very handsome. |

I usually do all my heavy chores in the morning ( I am a full time mommy at home ). I make it sure to check on trading once in a while when I am doing chores. After 12pm or after I had my lunch, that is the time I proceed with posting in bounty campaigns and checking on tradings, in this way, I made my time more systematic. I can think well when I am posting and at the same time, I can play with my daughter while on bitcoin.
Time management is a difficult task but it is never impossible. Successful people always manage their time efficiently. Traders are good time mangers because they keep analyzing market all the time to select the best time for their investments and the best time to make profits from their investments. |

as i am a newbie.. i know nothing about trading... what should i do to start trading and multiply my btc.. guys please help me
To earn capital, You must start by just working on bounty campaigns, You can search it all over the thread then next thing is try to research about bitcoins or just read some articles. Ready your self with knowledge before jumping into trading. Yes, That’s smart strategy of getting into trading with small capital you have. It is highly advisable to practice trading with small amounts that to with buying coins at cheap rates and selling them off at high prices. I will personally suggest you buying bitcoin at cheap rates and then hold it for some time until and unless you are not at little profit. Sell it off then. |

Increasing ur btc portfolio depends on ur capital for trading. Don't expect 0.01 btc to turn 1btc overnight, lots of effort are involved. Do trading, lending and staking. With proper research you will always go for the right coin.
Shitcoins can never ever make you feel proud buying them like eth. But if you really want to get rocked and party hard then definitely go for buying bitcoin at cheap rates when it is dumping and let bitcoin leave your wallet when you are going through the pump phase of bitcoins. Bitcoin is the father of the crypto market and all those who want to be rich are busy with bitcoin. |

It will be better if you save the some of it for the future, because we will never know what will happen tomorrow. And use some of it to start a business, so you will be sure that your money will be back at you even you spend it. Making your money circulate, making you money double so you would not worry about tomorrow.
Circulation of money is very important in one’s life if you can circulate your money in a proper way than you can be successful. It means that you can divide your money in three ways one for expenses, one for investments and one for the savings so that you can utilize them at the time of need. I do the same so that I can bear if any crisis come in future. |

Yes it is possible, Bitcoin can improve the country depending on its government if they were gonna use it for good. It was also a great way to buy goods through online using virtual money but still everything will be depending on the government decisions of your country.
Definitely it depends on the government whether they are investing in bitcoins or not. Most of the governments have started investing in bitcoins to support their country’s economy with the help of bitcoins by trading them with altcoins and other currencies during pump period. |

It is said that bitcoin will destroy the fiat system but i believe that if this happens the world will change completly because banks and a lot of things will go out of market.
bitcoin will not destroy the fiat also bank will still exist because government always be supported bank although bitcoin will more popular i don't think bitcoin will conquer the world by destroy fiat and banks because government won't let it happen I think in 2022 bitcoin will be well known and centralized as for trading goods and services around the world. It's the future of our market. And this serves as the best and easy digital money we can used with the other coins that develop. This will be the future into cashless society. Nope I don’t think so that it will be used by 2022. It will take some time for cryptos to be used by all over the world. Secondly it is impossible that everyone will be using bitcoins or cryptos because people still got questions about insurance of bitcoins at the time of crisis or who will be responsible for it. |

Trade is not a game. Trade requires a lot of knowledge and analysis in order to make a permanent profit, but still sometimes you get small losses due to the fact that you can not accurately predict everything.
Yeah you have a point. Trading is not a game because it is a serious job. Our money is depend in the trading and if we see the trading as a fun and games there is possibilities that we can lose our money. If you are just going to treat Trading like a joke, then it is loke you are throwing away your money into dust. Trading requires a lot of attention since the price is always fluctuating to low price or high price. But if you wanted to play it to avoid disappointment if you lose some profits because of a wrong decision, then do it, there is nothing wrong with that as long as you are not stealing others people money. But if you are going to take Trading Seriously, you are going to earn a lot of money and make profits in the long run. What I see today, trading can be a fun for many people and a game for many others because no one is 100% sure about his success in trading because of uncertainty in the digital world. Sometimes it becomes fun for the experienced traders because they have very better understanding of it and a game of win or losses for new comers in the market. My thinking is different. Earning money by any method is not some children game or enjoyment. First of all, it is very difficult to find a source of income in today's world. Once you have proved to be that lucky then the job really gives a tough time. I cannot see any fun in this. Maybe people find their profession thrilling in the start but with time, everyone gets tired. Trading is a hellish job. I don’t find trading as fun even in the least terms. Trading is something like a regular job and I do agree with you in this regard that earning money in today’s world is not a game at all. It is really very challenging to get appointed for some respectable post and then to continue with it for a very long time .trading with the use of bitcoins specially is an adult thing as a whole and is not childish matter at all. |

This is the best place where you can find as many Bitcoins as you can without having any difficulty. I myself tried this and I have found it amazing. I think if you want to buy Bitcoins without having any risk of losing your money, then you should definitely try this website. There is no other better place than this. |

So, I'm loving that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are crashing. It's been giving me plenty of opportunities to buy in on the markets. However, the markets are so low that I've bought ALL IN with my funds.
Here's the problem...
So many cryptocurrency markets are tanking... which means there are SO many opportunties to make money. But I can't buy anymore, because I'm all bought in.
Do I now wait until we go to the moon (or at least another high)? Do I try to day trade this?
How would you approach this?
The waiting is killing me and I want to play in the markets more!
Don’t ever put all your funds all in at once on a particular trade and you should have a target for the coin you are purchasing even as it goes deeper. No matter what however, always have some BTC left for you to use in case you need to quickly diversify before the present trades you are holding gives you profit. This is how a normal trade should trade. It is a great idea to keep few Bitcoins in your wallet no matter what the circumstances are. As far as running down of money is concerned, I think you can go for taking loan but only when you have some plan in your mind. Loan is very much risky especially when you don’t have a good plan in your mind in order to use that amount carefully. |

of course trading is fun, but trading can not be relaxed like playing games we have to sharpen the brain and understand the market conditions and understand the latest developments of this digital currency, but I prefer to always happy in trading, it can control your emotions when the price plunge down.
If we see the things from one perspective, then you are right. But I think of trading as the most serious thing and it is not like playing a game or having fun, in fact not at all. This is something very much serious and you need to take it very much carefully. One wrong decision can result in a huge loss. So you need to think very wisely. |

are you ok dude? why you asking like that in this forum? too bad using bitcoin for illegal activity like drugs.  It is not a good idea to use your most valuable investment just for the sake of drugs or any other illegal activity. I think there will be hardly anyone who will suggest you to buy drugs by giving away your Bitcoins. You need to think again over your decision. You can indeed get a lot more than just a drug from Bitcoins. |

my father (80 years old) asked me about bitcoin but i wouldn't take responsibility to others money, especially family.. to earn from bitcoin you have to keep your eyes open and check it on a daily basis but good luck and finger crossed for us and your grandmother  I'm the same, many people have asked me to buy Bitcoin for them, but I always say that if they don't know how to buy it themselves, they shouldn't buy it. I can give them advice on how to use Bitcoin, but I don't make claims on the future value or something like that. I want no responsibility when someone loses his money. There is hardly any reason to deny this fact that holding of Bitcoin will help you earn a good amount of money at the end. As far as convincing grandma is concerned, I think this is the best thing that you being a grandson can do for her. You need to take care of her investment to have better profit. The only thing she can do is that she can give you money. |

hen we compare gold and bitcoin, they both seem to be evenly matched. Bitcoin is ideal for everyday transactions and given the limited amount of bitcoin in circulation, bitcoin will work based on a sound demand and supply concept as any good money should.
If we make a comparison of both, Bitcoin and gold. Then I think Bitcoin is far more beneficial and profitable as compared to that of gold. Gold is no doubt a very good investment but Bitcoin is the best investment as far as good amount of profit is concerned. Bitcoin is in fact the option opted by every wise person in the present day. |

And this is very good actually. Such news can not but rejoice, especially those who invest in bitcoins in longevity. Despite the jumping news background, and especially the last month connected with news from China, digital gold shows adequate behavior, updates the bottom, preparing to conquer new peaks. So, if someone doubts whether it is worth buying bitcoin now, be assured of you!
For me, this year was actually full of surprises, especially the second half which is still in progress. These months were very thrilling and the value gain that bitcoin showed us earlier was super stunning. It really did put on a good show and the great news is it is not done yet. Indeed, masses are getting attracted towards digital gold and it is grabbing fame gradually. |
