361  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin dies does altcoin die? on: October 23, 2017, 12:52:14 PM
I think it's impossible, the more likely it is the altcoin that first dies, but if there is a possibility of bitcoin die, then altcoin will rise, but it will only be temporary, altcoin will also die after the dead bitcoin

There is no way bitcoin will die. Tell me one valid reason for that. I have been watching this thread since long and people are being manipulating the reasons why bitcoin could die or not. The technical analysis says that the market cap is not easy to catch so no altcoin can overtake it. Neither bitcoin can be put out of the chart.
362  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Satoshi Nakamoto Matter? on: October 23, 2017, 10:47:58 AM
So I've seen many threads created about Satoshi Nakamoto, the so called creator of Bitcoin. Which brought me to this question, Does Satoshi Nakamoto matter?
Especially now that bitcoin is being accepted quite well, and also its value rising every day.
Does it matter who its creator is? Or is he dead or alive or what he has to say?
What impact will any of this can have on bitcoin today or tomorrow?

He holds around 6% of the current circulating supply of Bitcoins which makes him a billionaire if he actually exists anymore and also puts him on Forbes list of richest at place #237 if I read correctly earlier. Let alone for being the creator of this wonderful digital currency, he also paved way for the whole altcoin industry to take shape based on his work. Just look at his trust page on the forum you will realize how much appreciation the man has received.

The only thing that matters about him is the 1.2% bitcoins he holds in his wallet which could crash bit coin economy if released at once.


The correct number is 5.89% which when priced at $6000/BTC makes his net worth a whopping $6 billion.

That’s pretty cool to read guys. But despite of his holdings and what they can do it also matters in person with Satoshi. He is creator of it and the identity of bitcoin or the whole crypto world is because of him only. Have you forgotten Steve Jobs or Mark Zukerburg .?? At any point we don’t remember  them but they matter a lot because they created something which is after their names and that’s a prestige.

I’m just telling in non technical way. It’s not all about wealth always but innovative mind too. ;-)
363  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which coin can go to $100 next year? on: October 22, 2017, 04:21:44 AM
Which coin can go to $100 in 2018, like Eth it was worth $12 in 2016 and now its reached to $391 max price.

I want to invest in some coins.

Why not invest into ether itself then? You have complete working proof of ether since year 2016 to 2017 where it jumped through 12 USD to 300 USD! Now the same thing will happen with ether next time in the year 2018. The rates will spike and the market cap will be at least equal to cover the prices of 1000 USD. I’m pretty sure about it and you can watch my post until then. :-)

365  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How long since you entered the crypto market on: October 13, 2017, 05:13:46 AM

I'm into crypto since more than 2 years ago and after having all the detailed study regarding it I bought my first coin six months later to my entry point. The bitcoin was around 500 bucks I believe or more or less but I did not keep them as there was one fork which troubled the bitcoin and then stated doing panic selling at that time. Lols. Yeah if I had that coin still then I could have made ten times more profit than anything in the trade. However I soon learnt that selling is not the way it work in crypto currency and it's just the holding thing for better profits. I hope that I will not sell my current holdings sooner than 10K hit. :-)
366  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: is this bitcoin high making your poorer? on: October 13, 2017, 04:38:50 AM
This already happened with me and I have learnt my lessons already. This is why I keep saying that there should be equilibrium between how much money you redistribute into bitcoins and altcoins. For many of us alts are like ocean of profits and that's true but it doesn't mean you should have all of it. Also, once you think that bitcoin is coming up at any time then just grab your alts and exchange them against the bitcoin and then let them grow there. That's like adding up bonus to your trade or exchange. Once the prices are very stable at some time point bitcoin then you can sell them and reinvest into your alt portfolio when they are down. This way earnings can actually be multiplied many times.

367  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Longest wait on: October 13, 2017, 03:52:33 AM

My longest transaction waiting is before the segwit , took me a 1 week of waiting, that time blockchain was so lag. After the segwit its only 1hr. Shapeshift took you a day to receive? I guess the problem is in their system not with the blockchain.



Whats the longest wait you've had for a transfer to go through.  I used shapeshift late last night and it still hasn't come through. I just did another one and it went right through.




The blockchain never goes down unless and until the hard or soft fork is occurring because it's being deployed with new algorithm when that happens in first place. Then we can off course expect the transaction to be slowed down as miners won't be at work as the master is sleeping. ;-)


Anyway for the shapeshifter problem I believe it's just the fees or may be it could be just shapeshifter itself. That doesn't look big problems and that could happen once in while. You should create the support ticket if the problems not solved yet.
368  Economy / Economics / Re: Appreciation of bitcoin on: October 13, 2017, 03:31:03 AM

The much talked about ride is on, to bullish. Who is riding with it ......

Shocked



Who will not want to go with this bull. Just look around you and the prices are making the grill really hot. This is party time for sure and I'm sure many users might have bottled the prices into their empty champagne bottles. Lols.


This is really good to see the bitcoin going up so high and it was speculated already that it will cross the 5K prices for sure. I am even sure that by the end of 2017 it would be more than 6-7K because the popularity is increasing and with each milestone the popularity doubles for the bitcoin. So just stay tune for this bull to get more angry.
369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do thousands of investors hold bitcoin on troubled days? on: October 13, 2017, 02:30:54 AM
That's more than good thing as traditional banking is anyway shit now a days. They incur lot of charges on us while availing different services. On the other hand crypto world is more or less perfect than the traditional banking system as well its evolving day by day for sake of digitalisation.


This is main reason why people still hold the bitcoin in worst situation. Everybody knows that bitcoin recovers faster than anything in this world. The dips and dives are all temporary for bitcoin. The one who holds it wins the market for sure.
370  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in the moon!!! on: October 12, 2017, 06:11:05 PM
It is not yet in the moon. We just need to wait for many years to call it, it really reached moon. And if we reached moon, probably we can take good profits on our investment by that. With bitcoin in the moon, I can see that many people will no longer buy at that price. I can see bitcoin at 1m usd in the future. Who agrees in this?

Don't agree completely man. The 1 million price will require trillion plus market cap for the bitcoin to be captured in the decade or so which is completely different story and probability of happening that is not defined yet. I mean it's okay to say that it will reach that value but that could take like next fifty years and who knows bitcoin may not exist by that time. Bitcoin price hike from one dollar to the five thousand now that's really moon jump for currency like bitcoin which can't be right with any other currency.
371  Economy / Economics / Re: Next generation money on: October 12, 2017, 05:53:58 PM
Bitcoin is the new form money through internet where this can help us out to earn money with less work and hassle free by doing small job we can earn bitcoin/satoshi from internet. Very easy to do transaction what ever your location is this could be a new generation and new generation of money that will came up in the future of this world.
I don't see anything new except the fact that potentially there is a possibility of confidential use in calculations between people. But as soon as carried out conversion operations, and this advantage is lost.

No. It doesn't work like that as you are depicting here because bitcoin is far greater than anything you can see in the market of crypto world or may be into forex stock exchange etc. The work of blockchain is really woven very carefully and it can bit the swift technology which is traditional banking systems protocol. Where that can be easily crackable there is another stuff on going within the blockchain, and it is self deploying and works from peer to peer. The traditional one doesn't work like that where it goes through number of chains and protocols etc. Anyway the technical discussion could be stretched a lot so there is no point in discussing it further. Just telling that bitcoin is different.
372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China Will Likely Resume Cryptocurrency Trading by Licensing Bitcoin Exchanges on: October 12, 2017, 05:28:16 PM
Be ready for this reversal.  It may happen sooner than you expected.

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/china-will-likely-resume-cryptocurrency-trading-by-licensing-bitcoin-exchanges/

As I have mentioned in other posts before, the ban from China should be only temporary.  Once they figure out how to regular the crypto market, they will disban the exchanges (provided that the exchanges get proper license).

China is not stupid enough to exclude itself from the crypto ride.  Also, a long term ban will damage its status and reputation in the financial market.




Yeah all the hype again and I don't know who cares about that really. It is so stupid to think about the bitcoin and china relation anymore. Just imagine man the bitcoin has crossed the 5K USD prices in no time and that too without china, that clearly states who cares if the china is involved or not. Why anyone would really care now, and I'm not sure why people keep opening a topic based on the china in first place. ;-)
373  Other / Off-topic / Re: *CHAIN THREAD* - F**k I wish I didn't spend BTC on........ on: October 12, 2017, 03:10:27 PM

That's what happens when you don't trust and don't keep patience in the reality. Since I started I have always been know to bitcoin being expensive grower in the market and the market cap will always grow more like this now and forever. I will always withdraw money if I want to but I won't go for emotional selling of the bitcoins in first place. Anyway you can always grab this chance the only thing is you will have to buy the bitcoin at very high rates now and then your ROI will come at very expensive prices. This will keep happening always no matter what. Bitcoin still not reached Pluto though, when it will be there then you can expect to have 10K USD per btc.  Cheesy
374  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you invest in Russian business? on: October 12, 2017, 02:28:44 PM
Is that a question or ambiguous situation of the project itself? Why would location really matter and that too Russian country where they are actually developing the plans to accept bitcoin in legal ways. There have been news though they will be taking down the bitcoin but that's not gonna happen for sure.


Anyway coming to the point, I will surely invest into Russian projects as long as they are legit and more than good enough to pay me profits. Everything will depend on the factors like that only, what is project about, why it can be successful, how much is ROI time, how much is profit etc. But location wouldn't really matter to me. I'm investing currently into many projects but never came across the location based project investment.
375  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin won't live to see the next 10 years on: October 12, 2017, 12:31:33 PM

I'm pretty sure there must be valid reason as why the bitcoin is not being shifted to gpu mining. This could be related to hashing power of the gpu and the block length of the transaction which is needed to be solved. The correlation could save such that gpu might not be capable of doing that load. That's why they are updating the ASIC miner instead, so that it could get easier to transact for us. But with the upgraded hardware comes the cost which is also incurred on us in the form of fees. So this is kind of descriptive why they wouldn't just upgrade the bitcoin to mine more easily and free of charges. It's all about money I believe.

376  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Altcoins really have a future? on: October 11, 2017, 04:39:19 PM

Oh come on alts are more usable than bitcoin because they are easy to implement on the blockchain and have them used the way we want. All the crypto cards are coming out of altcoin expenditures only and that's cheaper than bitcoin. There will more usage of alts in the future than bitcoin. So yes alts have great future ahead.
377  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: BTC effect on altcoins on: October 11, 2017, 04:20:56 PM

yes of course bitcoin affects altcoin price, if bitcoin is expensive then altcoin price will go down and become cheap, but if bitcoin price drops then altcoin price becomes expensive again, this I have monitored for 2 years, if you can take advantage of this cycle then you will get profit.




Interesting to know that someone is actually taking the benefits of using this cycle of profit loss to gain the extra profits. Because I really thought I was the only one who is applying this strategy. Good one and it's most easiest way to earn profits rather than investing into ICO sales and normal exchanger and stuff like that. Sometimes I have found that prices are even lower than presale because of bitcoin going up which means good opportunity to buy alts that had great ICO launch and release into exchanger afterwards. We can make this as complex as we could and as simple as we can!

378  Economy / Economics / Re: Mental barrier stops from buying BTC on: October 11, 2017, 04:00:08 PM


Every individual has its own decision making.  When it comes to bitcoin, people would think of possible effect if they buy or not.  We are sometimes scared of it.  Theresa always a psychological effect to all of us



Indeed the psychology plays a great role in the investment whether it's simple or big or anything miscellaneous. But it always decides the faith if we are not strong enough to deal with it. I can surely say this because being in the crypto since long time i have myself made very little moves in the long term while investing into bitcoin because I always relied on the emotional decisions. Those are not good but sometimes rarely they are important too. So always make investment which you think is worth doing and profitable. Just making investment  against the mind is also not good because you will be always in ambiguity whether you made mistake or you made right decision.


379  Economy / Economics / Re: plan for the future with bitcoin on: October 11, 2017, 03:40:32 PM


now this bitcoin has a lot to use as a place of investment

but I want bitcoin as a front investment who have done it

let's share with me how to invest with bitcoin for the future





Bitcoin has already proven its legacy in long terms and we should not be asking for more than this. Just look at the price charts that shows us complete history of investment made by bug people and that's in accordance with the bitcoin in the news or sometimes it's just casual move. In any matter bitcoin gives the glimpse of rising and shining in terms of its prices and hence our investments are stable with bitcoin. Just love it straight and one should be confident with it always. Good investment opportunity.
380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it risky to turn all my money to bitcoins? on: October 11, 2017, 03:19:17 PM


Would you keep all your eggs in the same basket? The answer should be NO. I suggest that you should not invest more than 20% of your total savings into any share, stocks, property or commodity. Split them, its called risk management. Read about it please.



This one is good example to interpret the scenario of what can happen if you put all the money into bitcoin.


It's really risky to keep everything into bitcoin and that's really logical and we don't need to have very deep discussion about it really.


Quote
should not invest more than 20%



The percentage of investment how ever depends on the OPs bank balance! If he is rich enough and can just go easy with the investment then his 20% could be very much or less depending on the richness. So that's really personal thing to decide. But that's good figure for average investors like me!
