1141  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin in 2018, how much will it worth? on: December 20, 2017, 11:47:39 AM
I read somewhere before, according to some prophet the price of bitcoin will rise by $10,000 per year, which means by the end of 2018 thr price will reach some where around $30,000. How true that statement is nobodys know, but apparently all his guesses was pretty accurate but believe it or not it is up to you.
Your prophet is wrong bro! No one can really predict what will happen with bitcoin first and with the price rising $10,000 per year, I think you need to see the extent that bitcoin is increasing now and the trend going upward. This is not the bitcoin we used to have before and so far, we should be expecting some rapid growth if the wall street guys do not keep it coming at us.

Let us hope the demand continues like this, and from the look of things it seems the bullish trend is not over yet and we may be seeing some full stop maybe around $23000, but who knows ?

By the middle part of 2018 and the trend following this pattern, then we should expect probably some $80,000 - $100,000, give or take but we cannot just imagine smooth rides going on just like that.
1142  Economy / Speculation / Re: What price will make you sad? on: December 20, 2017, 11:13:31 AM
actually, the current price has made me quite sad. however, the current price will make people hold the bitcoin they have. well, right now i do not have much bitcoin, so i am very sad for that.
The little you are holding now can still be something that can give you a lot later on in the future, so there is no need to be sad. I really wish I am holding up to at least 2000 BTC right now, but who would have thought this moment would come this fast. Nothing would make me sad anyway as I really do not give a damn whatever happens and however it comes, I am certain that the future is bright.
1143  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why BTC value is growing day by day ? on: December 20, 2017, 05:09:26 AM
Bitcoin attracts more and more people who certainly also increase demand on bitcoin, it's probably one of  factors why bitcoin now continuing rise in value. Many people who used to resist bitcoin, now believe it and make as investment.
Most especially now, that top investors in the financial sector are even beginning to see a chance to get in the more.

This has become some pretty awesome moment for the upward movement in the value of bitcoin and we will still keep having this as long as the promise of the freedom that bitcoin brings will keep being there. The volatility is still huge and I would not expect a huge run all the time, but for the future and long term holding, that is understandable.
1144  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin ever be $5,000 again? on: December 19, 2017, 02:16:27 PM
Bitcoin can go back to $ 5,000, because I learned that Bitcoin surprised us. A lot of people did not believe it when we said Bitcoin would be 10000 dollars a year ago. But today Bitcoin was worth $ 20,000.
Oh Yes! Bitcoin will definitely go back to $5000 and for those waiting, I am sure their waiting will be worth it when some of us are busy spending the little we have gotten at the rate of $1m while some are still busy waiting for $5000.

No one knows what can ever happen, but waiting for $5000 at this stage is just too much to be waiting for and I really do not see any possibility as far as I am concerned.
1145  Economy / Economics / Re: What makes Bitcoin to move this fast? on: December 19, 2017, 08:59:11 AM
More people are now investing into bitcoin that is the reason why the price went up that fast in the past days. Maybe right now we are just experiencing some correction that is why the price is hovering in the $13,000 level but I still expect for the price to go beyond $18,000 before the year ends.
Yes, It is just another correction, nothing else. Bitcoin is just getting ready for its next target which is not 18,000 dollars rather 20,000 dollars. I am pretty sure that this coin is going to reach this value by the end of December easily. I think there is no issues in waiting for bitcoin to recover its previous value. This is nothing new for the bitcoin investors to have some light dump before a drastic pump.
We are really just about starting the journey to the moon. I believe this is not fast yet. We have at least seen that bitcoin keeps increasing more in rate and lesser period than we used to experience it before. Demand is increasing daily and we have not even seen anything with respect to demand yet. I believe as we keep going now, we will tend to keep testing new ATHs faster than before.
1146  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: your mentality after a huge loss? on: December 17, 2017, 06:55:18 AM
What do you do after you suffer a huge loss?
If you have more money would you again take the risk and invest or would you just stop trading and try to earn in some other way?

Well we can't deny the fact that after experiencing a huge loss we feel traumatic but then again it is not the reason to stop trading or investing or taking a risk. But we should be thankful with this failure because there is something that sink in our mind or a lesson that we learned from it. So if we try to invest again then we will be more careful and apply those learnings.
Yes, the thing though is that when you already have a mindset or some of the experience before, the trauma may not just be that much. However, it is hard to experience a huge loss once and experience it again, because there must have been some huge mistake that must have warranted to you having such huge loss.

Stop-loss are there for a reason when you have a target mark that you are not getting and then it keeps going the other way.
1147  Economy / Economics / Re: TIME FRAME TO REACH $25,000 on: December 16, 2017, 07:30:44 PM
Coupled with the rate at which the price of bitcoin has been increasing lately. I'd like to know how long it would take bitcoin to reach $25k since it took it just a year to rise from $1k to $10k(which was pretty cool and fast) but I doubt if it can rise as fast as that again
You know the volatility level of Bitcoin, right? And also you know, that Bitcoin can be hardly influenced by some news. Of course there is also a "whales" influence (big market makers). So to predict the time-frame for reaching $25k is too hard.
Whales really cannot have much influence on the market right now and they are careful too as well. The market cap is increasing hugely daily and that means a lot. Sure, we cannot predict the time frame at which bitcoin can reach such a value, and there are so many factors that can cause some bearish trend, but we also have to realize that with this pace, anything can be possible.

The truth is no one can know what the time frame to reach $25000 would be. May be early next year, mid, or even later on. There are so many things that can happen which could drive the value backwards and then anything can happen that can even make it skyrocket at a pace higher than it has already been giving so far. In the latter case though, in the first quarter of 2018, that value is something to be expected.
1148  Economy / Economics / Re: What coin do you believe will be next to bitcoin? on: December 16, 2017, 08:32:44 AM
Ethereum has a very good chance of maintaining second place once it sorts out its scalability issues

Bitcoin Cash, NEO and IOTA are the others which also have potential here

I wouldn't bother with any of the other BTC forks like Gold, Super, Platinum, Uranium, Cash Plus and whatever else

Ethereum really does. It has been tested, it has been used and there is one thing about the first mover in the ICO platform world, and as long as the devs keep working hard to make the platform better, it would always get a useful spot probably next to bitcoin. Although, no one can really say which coin may end up being next, and only future can tell. We have seen some coins with prospect doing great so far, and it is better not being too fast to assume.

There are so many coins that would be the next big one but no one can really say which one ends up as such as we cannot be certain of the future. However, I am sure some of the devs are really working hard; knowing that this is a very competitive space and anyone who is not smart enough to do the needful, will eventually get sidelined in the long run.
1149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: More and more airdrop is a lie, on: December 16, 2017, 07:55:59 AM
Most of airdrops are complete trash I totally agree, but not all of them. I've been participating in almost 200 airdrops, and I sold about 10 tokens for a pretty good price, in total for almost 3 ETH. And if you consider I haven't put any money in those airdrops, that is an excellent profit.
Not all of them at all. I have joined some few of them which I solidly checked to be sure they really are a viable project and they are doing well now. Their prices have surged over the months, and I am sure they still will.

One thing is that, this is a community where anything goes and in most of these airdrops, majority of them are just there to gather crypto users information, so it is one thing to be careful so you do not start getting spam mails.

On the other hand, it is funny how most people rely on airdrops and thinking just because it is free, they really have nothing to lose. Some airdrops may have been relevant so far and doing good in the market, but most of them is just shitty. Nevertheless, there is no point clogging up once Ethereum wallet with some tokens that are not going to be worth it at the end of the day.
1150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Etherdelta my favourite on: December 16, 2017, 07:22:41 AM
Unfortunately ED has very low liquidity in comparison with big centralized exchanges. But I like it very much too, because there is no need to register and pass through verification.
Yeah, but I guess one thing must have to forego the other. I like it too and it has been great trading on this platform even though I found it uninteresting at first though, but I guess I got used to it. At least, the fact that it is decentralized makes it more appealing than the centralized exchanges as you at least have the guaranty of the safety of your funds and knowing that is totally in your own hands unlike a centralized exchange that can just vamoose anytime with no apologies.
1151  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Transfer My Entire Savings to Cryptocurrencies? on: December 15, 2017, 05:51:19 PM
This is a good idea but you should remember to transfer your savings only. You should have more investments to reduce your risk because the current crypto market has a lot of potential but it also comes with huge risks.
Perfect. Crypto space, despite the fact that there are a lot of huge potentials; it is just a space one needs to be very careful with as well.

It is still in its early stage and even with all the developments that look like bitcoin is getting established, it is still a risky investment and one should not even consider putting one's egg in just a basket even if the investment is not a huge risk let alone crypto.
1152  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Starting trade with small amount on: December 15, 2017, 05:16:11 PM
How to start a trade with small amount?
I am not a millionaire.I have jaust some money.I want to trade with my small amount.can I do this?Then how?
actually you can start to trade even if you only got small capital. what is important is your skills to trade, you should know first everything on how trading works. so, you do research first and read articles about trading. that small amount will gibve you big profit when you do well in trading.
Yeah, if only people can get to know that it is not really that hard and the hardest part of trading is looking for shortcuts and not knowing exactly what you are doing, With that, a lot of mistakes can be made, it can be so easy to get emotional and overzealous and then end up losing all the funds one started with. With small capital, as long as you are good and know what you are doing, it can get doubled up fast.

I know some of my friends who started this way. Over the years, they were able to make enough from signature campaigns, and then they got enough, learned about trading and combined it with the signature campaign.

Trading is a cool way to earn for those who are ready but I would not be too much in a haste to get started without the knowledge as that would lead such a person to a catastrophic failure.
1153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why you should buy Bitcoin now. on: December 15, 2017, 03:33:50 PM
Because bitcoin is going to reach 6 figures next year. Just look how fast btc skyrocket this December and  if bitcoin was a person, it maybe laugh at those speculations that after $10k its over.
Lol, I can't say about 6 figures in next year as that sounds something impossible at least from where we are right now. However, I am so much optimistic that bitcoin will surely do well in the long run and there are so much huge possibilities to have bitcoin increasing in the long run. The rate of increase is shooting higher than we use to have it and I am sure that speaks some logic for someone who is still hesitant.
1154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Lucky moments during gambling? on: December 15, 2017, 02:32:02 PM
Luck does not occur on a daily basis, so when you feel like you have a lot of it, maximize it! There was this time that I was playing with slots and the bonuses were on fire. I usually just play for fun, but those bonuses that went on for more than five rounds just kept me going. I felt like I was on a roll! Though I wasn't able to bring home the major prize, I still feel lucky for bringing home a decent amount of money you wouldn't usually bring home at a casino. That day was indeed a good and lucky one!
How do you know or fee you have a lot of luck ?
I see that as something that is highly overrated. Luck is not something we should always depend on as that can totally get us sucked up in life and one of the reasons a lot of people have turned hardcore gamblers today.

I have never had luck gambling and if luck decides to find me when playing, good and fine, if it does not, then I accept my fate.
1155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Is Your Worst Moment in Gambling? on: December 15, 2017, 01:34:37 PM
The worst moment in gambling that i realized that i almost lost my money because of gambling i do gambling on real life i am so addicted to gambling. But the help of my friend i stop gambling for a good reason.

Good to hear that you stop gambling, personally my worst moment with gambling is that I keep on playing without realizing that I don't have money to use for so I ended up borrowing money from my friends. Yeah we can see that there's no good reason to continue gambling but for me as long as you know when to stop then you can surely secure your profit.
That is like a worst moment someone can ever create for themselves. Good for you that you quickly considered quickly that you were getting it all wrong and then you were able to hold yourself together. A lot of people have made such mistakes and that to me is more like drifting towards being an addict and if you had not controlled the impulse, right now, your impulse would have been controlling you.
1156  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Stabilizing At $20K on: December 15, 2017, 11:22:31 AM
Dunno about 20k.

Like 3 weeks ago nobody would believe, that BTC could cross 10k before Christmas. and now we are at 18k... . You really can't tell what's going to happen in net 48 hours on this market.
Yeah, No one can really tell. We can only assume and imagine what we feel could happen, but that does not mean what would end up happening will still not happening. Right now, it is a long clip and only those who are patient enough may end up seeing the end of the clip but stability at $20,000, I won't see that coming at all as it does not sound possible.

Once the next bull run starts, I am sure we may actually go past that $20k and even test $25k. Stability is not even something we should be expecting now. Bitcoin is about to get known the more and then we will end up seeing even more people who have been skeptical to invest trying to rush in to be a part of what they consider as an asset without even bothering to know the true value of it.
1157  Economy / Speculation / Re: Predict the bitcoin price before 2018 starts on: December 14, 2017, 07:29:03 PM
Predict the price for bitcoin before the year is over
It is hard to predict but my pure speculation is anywhere over $20k before upcoming january but it all depends on how bitcoin future listing will perform. People have high hope over it and if it fails than price can get huge correction.

ATH price for 2017 could be at $15k to $20k, correction from those ATH levels is possible.
Even at this stage right now, correction is possible, We have been having some pretty short ones and I would not really consider that a perfect correction for now. There would still be some in few days which would step down a bit, to probably $10,000. I am not sure how long we are going to keep on before that but I am holding my popcorn and watching the charts on 3D.

Moreover, someone actually placed a bet to give me some part of his bitcoin once it hits $25k on GDAX and right now, I am just so hoping it does cause I will be increasing my wallet in that case. As we can see with the charts right now, we can get to see that anything can happen and $25k is actually something that is attainable as long as the great expected correction does not start before then.
1158  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you regret selling your BTCs? on: December 14, 2017, 06:25:43 PM
Im just a small dolphin, OP.

I only sold btc to pay my file cloud service. Regretted it, should have used fiat instead.

I also sold some to buy altcoins, but most of those were eventually sold to buy bitcoin back. So no harm here.

Never shorted it in a fiat exchange, though. Been thinking about it, but its too risky.
Fortunately for me, I started fiat shorting recently. It is a whole lot risky, but with some huge amount, one can be making some pretty good amount of cash daily even though it can be crazily stressful. You do not have to regret anything, what you should do now is to make sure you do everything not to regret the future. We cannot always win every time and life itself has left room for us to make some mistakes and learn from it.

I have been holding my bitcoin for a long time now and despite the fact that some people keep singing rubbish into their own ears not mine concerning bitcoin being a bubble, I just feel they are extremely butthurt, they could not buy when every other person was busy buying and they wish we could drop it back at that value for them. Their wish!
1159  Economy / Economics / Re: Legalizing Bitcoin on: December 14, 2017, 04:35:13 PM
I believe that bitcoin can not be legalized. This will attract the underworld and they will start to earn it. The perpetrators will start using bitcoin in their own interests, and this is not good.
How will legalization of bitcoin ever have an effect on any of this ?
Bitcoin in itself is enough to attract any evil perpetrator without the government being involved. Also, if what you are referring to is the government or some of the top guys hitting into the show, then, I do not see how that has anything to do with legalizing bitcoin as they can still do that anyway.

Legalizing bitcoin to me will create awareness, and that is all that it is to it.
1160  Economy / Economics / Re: popularity of bitcoin dictates demand, means more profit on: December 14, 2017, 03:37:23 PM
I am sure the demand for bitcoin is based on its popularity. There are better blockchains being developed that cover more population needs!
Maybe you should name them. Has any of them been used on a large scale for you to know they would not turn out to be an issue ? Also, why would any investor decide to trust a coin they really do not know what the future holds for than a coin that is already established ?

The demand for bitcoin will keep increasing and unfortunately, no matter how good those coins may be, it would be hard for them to gain that recognition as they will end up being overshadowed anyway.
