121  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin a better payment system? on: April 19, 2018, 06:22:08 PM
Better then real money? Of course yes.But the best in all cryptocurrency ? No.I think that better payment system is eth.
No i don't think so there are some altcoins out there that cheaper and faster than etherum but if you say etherum is better than bitcoin i might agree with you.

A good payment system should be faster and cheaper unfortunately you can't find those things on bitcoin. The highest fee and low confirmation are serious problems right now and this should be addressed immediately however if we compare bitcoin to other payment systems like PayPal or WU bitcoin is still the best.
122  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto is more like “a psychological experiment than a serious investment" on: April 19, 2018, 11:51:47 AM
Do you know why most of the time educated man is physically and mentally absence in reality? Because they have a world of its own. This is why most of the time they’re outdated and technologically ignorance. They’re mostly using book rather than ebooks or computers. Not all, but most of them.

If this man is my professor I would rather home study than hearing lectures that is in old fashion.

I hate those who give an expert opinion on things they don’t know or close minded because of self interest. Most probably he invested in stock market and find bitcoin as a threat.
Exactly. Sometimes this type of person prioritizes their opinions than others opinion, in fact not 100% of what they say is accurate even though they are experts in their field, and also their prediction is something that maybe can't happen.

He said bitcoin is more psychological rather than a serious investment, I'm really sorry I disagree with this statement the reason why bitcoin is still alive because bitcoin bring innovation to the world.
123  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Bitcoin volatility prevent adoption? on: April 18, 2018, 11:53:52 PM
This is why some businesses do not use bitcoin as a direct payment method but use a third party like bitpay. Bitcoin is still very young and takes a long time to become a mature currency. Volatility is also an issue that is always lifted by the media to frighten people to not go into bitcoin however some people especially those who do trade think volatility is good because it can make them rich in a short time, so is it prevent adoption? I'm not sure.
124  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lessons from Facebook and the attempted shutdown of Telegram on: April 17, 2018, 11:45:26 PM
What's the problem with Telegram?
As far as I know the Russia will ban bitcoin in their country. They will block IP addresses. Why should it affect bitcoin price? The news is not related to bitcoin.
Also, how facebook regulations can affect the bitcoin price?


Maybe he means telegram is banned in some countries due to the government regulation, like in my country the government ban it because its decentralized nature and you know the government doesn't have access to this app as well as bitcoin.

Anyway it is hard for the government to ban bitcoin since people can use VPN if they blocked IP or something, there's also decentralized exchange so people can sell their bitcoin to cash, yeah there are so many alternative ways.
125  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 22 European Nations Form New Blockchain Partnership on: April 13, 2018, 10:41:03 PM
The beginning of the end for Bitcoin in the EU.

They will develop and release their own controlled crypto for use within the EU then eliminate any competition.

I have been saying this for a long time.

Bitcoin = Beta testers for the software.
Yes, bitcoin and blockchain are totally different, they are just interested in the technology behind bitcoin the blockchain, not the bitcoin itself.
I've been thinking about this scenario for a long time and it seems to be true that every country has their own centralized cryptocurrency which bad for bitcoin, clearly that bitcoin is a big threat for them. one thing that we can do is only watch, we have no power like they have.
126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Big Companies Could Choose Btg Or Bch Or Bcd For Payment Instead Of Btc? on: April 13, 2018, 10:30:32 PM
Instead of choosing those coins big companies might choose etherum or another coin like litecoin. It is undeniable that bitcoin is not suited for making transactions especially in small amount due to the fees and length of confirmation time. The alternative is to use popular coins such as etherum or litecoin. There are already many sites that use etherum and litecoin as a payment method but when sending big amount people still use bitcoin compared to the coins you mentioned in the OP.

The point is don't put all your eggs in one basket spread them if you won't lose them all. I'm advising you to not put all your coins in one wallet you can save them in several wallets even though ledger is a good one. There are so many cases out there, people lose their coins because of their carelessness. Do not forget to back up and protect your private key so if something bad happens with your wallet, your coins will be safe.
128  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is bitcoin stability important? on: April 13, 2018, 09:29:07 PM
stability is very important especially as a payment method or currency, bitcoin itself is very volatile but sometimes it's beneficial for those who took advantage of doing trading. We all have to admit that the industry is still very young and it takes a lot of time for this industry can be stable. if bitcoins were stable in price, It would be a very safe asset especially for people storing their wealth.
129  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will regulation kill cryptos? on: April 13, 2018, 08:44:48 PM
regulation is basically contrary to the concept which proposed by satoshi yup the decentralized nature. Will regulation kill crypto? I don't think so, but it might inhibit the growth and development of the crypto itself. Many people out there complain about the regulations imposed by their government, and even there was an exchange that had to move their headquarters to another country due to the regulation of their government, there's always pros and cons if we talk about this issue.
130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Airdrop websites and lists? on: April 13, 2018, 01:30:37 PM
Hi guys, I’d like to know if you knew some other reliable websites where one can find airdrops... It’s difficult nowadays to find these reliable website, it’s way better to ask directly to you who are more informed than me! Thank you in advance (hoping not to have gone against the rules lol)!
Bountyhive is one of the website that you can find some good ICOs/Project I believe they make a research before they listed those projects, and you can participate out there by doing some things like twitter/fb campaign and many more.
There are some sites similar to this but I forgot their name, you can also find a good project by checking the project is endorsed or managed by a trusted member here.
131  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will hit 25k by the end of this Year? on: April 13, 2018, 01:21:23 PM
I'll be happy if bitcoin price will hit 25k this year!
Reading some threads explained about this, the expert also says that this could happen, I personally don't have any idea about that since I'm so bad in predicting price but let's see if it can touch that price I wish bitcoin will be skyrocket like what happened in last year.
132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Become a Blockchain developer and Get rich! on: April 13, 2018, 09:32:22 AM
Currently I'm learning programming but i must confess that resource to learn about blockchain programming is very limited that's why this industry is lack of this programmer. And those who experience in blockchain programming are just too bussy or something so they can't teach or atleast write a book.

Is anyone know a website or ebook that we can learn more about blockchain programming?
133  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How did you choose ICO to invest? on: April 13, 2018, 09:10:36 AM
Well there are so many things that you have to before invest in an ICO:
- Read and learn their whitepaper (This is most important)
- Find more about those who behind the project.
- Knowing their future plan and benefit for you if you invest your money out there.
- Read some review on ICO review web and asking other people about their opinion.
- Design, promotion etc
134  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How do I know a bounty program is good? on: April 13, 2018, 08:57:58 AM
I see a lot of bounty programs on the BCT, but I do not know which bounty program is good, there are many fraud programs. Can you  give me advice ?
Personally, I estimate the company's bounty by such criteria:
1) Team (preferably not Russian)  Tongue
2) Whitepaper
3) Road map
4) Percent of money allocated to the bounty
5) Bounty manager
6) The amount of money collected on pre-sales (if they have already been conducted)


Wait what? I'm just wondering why do you think that russian is not good in bounty campaign. I saw some ICOs that the team originally from rusian and the bounty which they offered somehow is big even though KYC is applied. I think there are some of them who succseed.
Anyway the point that you've just mentioned above I compeletly agree with you that those criteria should be considerate before we join.
135  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is ETH also a bubble like bitcoin? on: April 12, 2018, 11:57:19 PM
what do you mean "like bitcoin" ?
Did you trust bitcoin is a bubble ?
If bitcoin bubble burst, all the coins will disappear
well that's what I'm thinking, seems like OP believe that bitcoin is a bubble.
I agree with you if bitcoin is a bubble maybe all coins in that market right now is zero. I wonder why people hate bitcoin so much and support other coins. don't you think that all coins are related to the bitcoin so if bitcoin is bubble then all coins will also vanish.
136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I earned $ 3500 from the 1 airdrop on: April 12, 2018, 11:48:07 PM
I've never participated at airdrops. Only at bounty campaign. Didn't think that it is possible to earn such sum of money via airdrop.
It's about luckiness, never knowing that people can earn such that amount through airdrop. Since it's free money you can't expect too much some people think they can be rich by doing that well like I've just said it's all about luckiness and the OP is very lucky. Maybe you can earn much but not from airdrop you have to contribute to the project like promote, design or anything.
137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ripple Future on: April 12, 2018, 11:25:55 PM
I am a big fan of ripples, I am sure this coin will grow in the future later, the reason I like ripple is In addition to having technology and network that supports various currency countries in the world, Ripple also has a mission to knock down the walls that limit payments in the financial world. Someone who uses PayPal, for example, can only send money to fellow PayPal users or shop on sites that have been working with PayPal. The same thing happens where MasterCard users can only shop in stores that have EDC MasterCard machines. Every existing payment system is created and works in its own way so that one system with another can not be connected directly. Someone who receives payment in Bitcoin, can not accept payment by Credit Card without EDC machine. In contrast, merchants with EDC machines can not accept Bitcoin if they do not have Bitcoin wallets. Ripple is here to fix this situation.
Well you explained ripple very well, however, something that i don't like about ripple is it's centralized nature some people say it's bad some say it is good. Ripple is one of the popular coin even the big 3rd by the market cap the reason why a coin is still alive because of adoption and i think ripple is doing well. I'm holding some of them and I don't expect much from this coin let's see what happen in future.
138  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC is back ? is that good time to invest ? on: April 12, 2018, 11:16:40 PM
This depends on your investor profile, because if you are a long-term investor and believe in Biticoin and other crypto, any purchase in the down market can give good returns when the market finally reverses its trend
Exactly, I'm holding btc as long-term so whatever the price is I'll keep buying as much as i can.
But if you are short term trader there are so many things that you have to considerate, technical and fundamental are most important here. You might ask opinion to the community but you have to make a research regarding their opinion.
139  Economy / Economics / Re: What's more important when starting a business, Big Idea or Big Capital? on: April 11, 2018, 11:43:22 PM
Big idea without big capital is useless, big capital without an innovative idea is also useless. Nothing is more important here, that two things must be together. If you do not have an idea about you will build then you can invest in a  good project just read the whitepaper and start investing. But if you have a brilliant idea but do not have enough money to start then all you have to do is find an investor, simple as that.
140  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How to make a successful project? on: April 11, 2018, 11:34:35 PM
The tips that you've just mentioned on the OP it might be useful but having a great and solid team is the most important here. For me, there's no successful project without a good team since they determine how your project develop. Another factor is promotion, a good project without big promotion it can't be successful. The more you spread your project then more chance your project will be successful.
