Just see how Bitcoincash promotes their product. Misleading people to think Bcaash is Bitcoin. Some people buy Bitcoin cash thinking they're buying Bitcoin. Then they discover they bought the wrong coin. Everything on the website bitcoin.com is done to confuse people.

Outside, buying the @bitcoin handle on Twitter to promote Bitcoin Cash and deny Bitcoin. Using the Bitcoin logo (lol?) Using sockpuppets accounts on the web.
If you have a real product, you would not need to use such marketing methods

Who is interested to use an altcoin like this one?

2016 didnt drop below $300
2017 didnt drop below $900
2018 didnt drop below $6000

so chill out guys. stop pretending $20k is the expectation of 'norm'... instead flip your mindset the other way around

those that stand at $20k and look down are always going to think the glass is less than half full and not refilling

those that stand at $6k and look up are always going to think the glass is filling up nicely, even if people are taking a gulp out of it

2018 people think that if Bitcoin price is not $20,000 then Bitcoin is crashing and. They think $20,000 is the standard, not not say the minimum it should be. Personally, I am with it right now and I am more interested to see how the adoption is going, with the technology behind.

News sites generate more traffic than the educationals. Usually, people looking for educational websites are not the type of people to invest in ICOs. So if your goal is to generate a revenue from your site with PR You should go to a site for news.
The only thing is you need to post several articles per day. If you plan to make 1 article per day then you won't get any returning visitor
6624  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Any litecoin to bitcoin exchanger without verification available? on: May 28, 2018, 07:41:45 PM
There is Cryptopia which does not ask for a verification (for less than $5k in a day), you can do your exchange with no problem. What I don't like with Binance and the reason I don't use it, is the user needs 2FA or you can't withdraw. It was enough for me to no use it.
6625  Economy / Speculation / Re: how long before we set a new high? on: May 27, 2018, 09:01:35 PM
Bitcoin needs a lot thing to recover. Firstly back in 2011 and 2013, Bitcoin was not a hot topic for the mainstream media, almost no one was talking about it (or only to say it will die in 6 months). Media started to publish about it just because it was trending and it gives them a lot of traffic. No matter if it's for talking good or bad about BTC.

Before, less FUD we could see, less fake news, less misinformation, and fewer people like Roger Ver. What I mean is the situation and parameters aren't the same since 2011 & 2013

Bitcoin has the potential to recover, but it depends also on the community.
6626  Economy / Economics / Re: Porsche introduces blockchain to cars on: May 27, 2018, 07:39:33 PM
Many large corporations are keying into the blockchain technology not just Porsche. Forward thinking corporations know that digital currency is the future and early birds end up at the apex of the revolution. I expect more adoption of blockchain technology in the future.

Corporations are not interested in digital currency (cryptos or whatever) and don't care about it. A lot are "betting" on the blockchain technology with as a major reason: reducing the costs, which mean more profits, better ROI. One of the other reason is the security.

As for Porsche, I didn't remember what they did but I know they are not the only one, Not sure which one (Toyota?) jumping on the blockchain train as well

i am always postponing my decision because is extremely complicated to configure one node. And dev team done almost nothing untill today to help less savvy people to configure nodes, either getting a less complicated process or an easy undurstandable how-to guide to do the job....

There are few tutorials explaining from A to Z. blog posts and videos

I advise you to join their Discord channel because there is a channel exclusively where you can ask for help there. There are always guys happy to help.

Yep, it was more than rumors but it was funny. For example, on Twitter, all the XRP influencers swearing Coinbase will add it, and reply to you with arrogance if you said to them "no way"

I find the crypto world funny, it's like a soap opera, there is always a problem, a rumor or a drama to read about and it never ends
Don't forget the drama in this forum : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=129.0
Although you got to love the butthurt XRP influencers. Roll Eyes
héhé, I rarely post on this section but this is one of my favorites in this forum. I like to read "Abuse of power by ..." or "<username> is a witch"
I usually wait to see a lot of posts in a thread I bookmark it, then after 1 or 2 days I just sit down with a coffee and start to read the whole thread

Bunq is a good start-up but really strict with  ID verification; KYC

Are you using Monese with a crypto company? (i.e to receive payment from a crypto exchange etc)

Yeah. A lot of people were waiting for Coinbase to add XPR, and some people spreading rumors, people started to buy and speculate on the XPR price after Coinbase adds it. As a result, instead, they got the big NO from the company.
However, for money, I am sure they will be ready to start to think about adding it. At the same time, an exchange without Ripple is  Cheesy
There are rumors that coinbase would even list ZRX. lol. But for XRP,people are spreading more than just rumors. But then again,it is just normal crypto things. Cheesy
However I'm sure all of that flies out the window if there's some money in it for them. Their Bcash launch was very underhand and mysteriously eager too.
They claimed that they listed Bcash because the community wanted them to. lol Roll Eyes

6632  Economy / Economics / Re: Us government has start probe in manipulation in value of cryptocurrency . on: May 25, 2018, 06:50:36 PM
But the US govt can't control every exchange, especially the ones out of The US which have nothing to do with the SEC or CFTC
I think they are just wasting their time trying to control every exchange. Instead of probing into the so-called "illicit tactics" of crypto traders, why not they track down "scam ICO's" first? Why focus on "ilicit tactics" when they can easily formulate a more strict regulation or implement regulations on crypto to fiat transactions that will help them limit the capabilities of what they refer to as "Illicit traders"?

Because it's a waste of time. Everyone can buy a domain, hosting anonymously, set up a website and create his own ICO. Even if they try to fight the ICOs market they can do it only in The US. If I am a European citizen why shall I follow an American law? On the top of that ICO is also the new way to raise funds for startups

Congrats guys for Binance adding Zencash. You need a lot of patience with Binance Roll Eyes
6634  Economy / Speculation / Re: today is Thursday 24 may, bitcoin price back down, what happened on: May 24, 2018, 08:18:03 PM
everyone gets very anxious about bitcoin prices down to date, some say bicoin will go down, some say, bitcoin will go up, according to you, where is the right information

Just relax and don't look the BTC price on a daily basis or you will lose your mind. See the price in the long term of 6 months to 1 year. Check out 1 year ago, 2 years ago etc, you will see there is not a reason to be worry or panic.
6635  Economy / Economics / Re: Us government has start probe in manipulation in value of cryptocurrency . on: May 24, 2018, 07:38:39 PM
I think they are focusing on ICOs and alt-coins, which are generally scams about manipulating price, supply, etc. It would be very healthy for the crypto world if they locked up a bunch of these scammers.

Not only ICO and altcoins but all cryptos and to be more specific they are focusing the Exchanges platforms to fight against traders who practice "spoofing" and "washing" methods, making fake orders, etc.
But the US govt can't control every exchange, especially the ones out of The US which have nothing to do with the SEC or CFTC
6636  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase preparing for monster increase in trading on: May 24, 2018, 07:23:50 PM
I wonder if they will add Ripple, it will be funny to see.

XRP goes against their rules for listing.

A government will hardly make a partnership with something from the private sector. They would rather create their own system.
It's more suitable in the private sector like supply chain, etc... BTW, what PCW have used as a programme, do you have any link ?
6638  Economy / Economics / Re: Jim Rickards: The Empire State Moves Against Bitcoin on: May 23, 2018, 08:57:47 PM
After the story with Coinbase and the IRS every US citizen should know the same can happen with every exchange. The good news is they can use decentralized exchanges instead to avoid any problem and it's  the best alternative
6639  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Moving towards 6000$ on: May 23, 2018, 08:38:56 PM

The larger dumps I observe aren't panic dumps, but more well timed dumps coordinated by a group of whales teaming up. In other words, I do believe that there is some manipulation happening right now.


This.
Not the first time we see it and surely not the last. Since about 6 months it is with more evidence we can see some people are really looking to push down the price to get some bitcoins as cheap as possible. Fake news, misunderstood statements, and so on, everything is good to use.
I would say it can also be considered as a good sign if these people are really thinking the price will hit up the sky...
6640  Other / Meta / Re: Full articles without link to the original in the Bitcoin Discussion on: May 23, 2018, 08:13:57 PM
What about the kind of thread where OP literally copies the first 6 paragraphs of an article and links it at the bottom with a "for full article visit ..."?

I'm talking about this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4155777.0

I check the post history and if I see the user is only making posts like this one then I report the user and explain what he is doing on the forum.
Such user has no interest to discuss with the community and doesn't even care what replies will be given and doesn't give something to the forum
