No, it is not too late, bitcoin will never be too late to be bought. Even if everybody knows about it, as long as it is still growing, It is never too late. And by the way, it depends on your reason for buying. I guess it is for investment. Otherwise, bitcoin is a commodity that can be bought anytime like any thing you have in your life.
Without any doubt, Bitcoin lunar trip is hard to be aborted, because of its community's faith in its potentials, so no matter what price we see today, there are strong indications that they're a shadow of what is going to be. However the price could get to a point, where it becomes quite expensive and only people with deep pockets and stronger conviction, would be willing to buy. To avoid such a situation, the best bet is to be really to buy and hold at now dips. |

Bitcoin is changing the way we live. Bitcoin is changing the way we do business. Bitcoin is changing the way we travel and save our assets. Bitcoin and blockchain technology has open new doors for people to do business with one another without the intervention of third parties. What do you make of this, huh? Share with us what you think. thanks  Yes. Today as we can see the feedbacks of the bitcoin are having a good and positive because of the things it helps to many people. And many people are getting enjoy by the transactions of money and the earnings of bitcoin. Wnd bitcoin also gives the people simple taks that gives a higher rate. Exactly, nothing says it best than the testimonies of the people Bitcoin have touched their lives especially people before now that because of the inequities that be, have not had the opportunity to enjoy their share of the sunshine. Does anyone understands what it feels like to have just one global pay rate and not the usually first world countries take it all, leaving crumbs for the rest of the world? |

I don't think any country has banned Bitcoin? Unless I'm mistaken? How would you ban bitcoins? It's like banning you playing a certain game. How would they do that? Countries have other things to worry about then Bitcoin I can assure you of that. People always talk about this or that being banned but where? How? Where is proof? Just naysay? The main reason for this ban is it's really really difficult to control Bitcoin. Bitcoin transaction is anonymous so it's nearly impossible to find out the owner of any transaction. Beside countries banned Bitcoin because their technology still not developed enough to control Bitcoin and its disadvantages to prevent crime take advantage of Bitcoin to commit guilty like tax evasion, drug trafficking,....For now there are few countries legalized Bitcoin but these countries still not able to control Bitcoin totally so I think it'll take much longer to see Bitcoin legalized worldwide.
You say it's banned because it's difficult to control? Well then how you going to ban something that is difficult to control if you can't control it to begin with? Well a number of countries had attempted to ban Bitcoin even without sound understanding of what Bitcoin really is and its inherent benefits, only to come into the rude awakening that Bitcoin cannot really be banned and some of the countries in the list have had to eat humble pie and now seeking for soft landing. Most of them are quick to cite the use of Bitcoin for illegal activities as their reason for the ban, but from their actions and utterances, it's evident they're been driven by ignorance, as a result they became apprehensive and over protective of their local currencies https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/top-10-countries-bitcoin-banned/ |

Do you really believe in the cryptocurrency market? If YES, why? If NO, how dare you? and Why?  Looking forward to read your answers In cryptocurrency YES and not the entire cryptocurrency market - some coins are nondescript! I do and so does everyone else here and in the ecosystem, even those that might want to think they do not. Cryptocurrency brings back freedom, trust and value to the debt ridden, trustless and valueless monetary system. It was long over due and people were actually suffering and smiling, just at the height of the economic meltdown in 2008, Satoshi beamed a light in the tunnel and that would lead us to the future! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_crisis_of_2007%E2%80%932008Funny enough, even the governments believe in cryptocurrency and are working tirelessly to tap into its technologies, even though they choose to pretend they do not see even with their eyes open. |

if all banks make one coin , yes will be kick-out bitcoin , but if every back make one coin to each , there is no sens of it i think
No. You don't get the point here. Bitcoin's major selling point is its decentralized nature. It allows people to store wealth, transact, communicate, store data, etc, all that outside the reach of banks and governments. It offers people a way to escape this broken system that only leads the far majority of the people to poverty. Governments and banks can come up with as many crypto currencies as they want, they will never be able to even slightly harm Bitcoin. If people didn't care about Bitcoin and its insanely powerful network, they would have jumped over to another coin years ago already. From there it's safe to say that even non banking and governmental issued altcoins will never have the chance to come even close to what Bitcoin is right now. Put in another way, Bitcoin gives people freedom from those banks and their masters - the governments, their callous interest rates and commissions. One does not have to look too far to see why they're whimpering - almost all the money now in cryptocurrencies, used to be in their vaults, which they used to create mindless credits over credits that got us in the financial crises we've been in, but that party is now coming to an end. Even a blind can tell when there's no salt in a soup, even so Bitcoin, representing the cryptocurrencies, is like a salt, anyone that tastes it, knows the difference and ever look back! |

Why won't they just use bitcoin itself rather than creating a new coin to do the things that bitcoin can already do? It's such a waste of time, effort and money to make a coin and try to "rival" other cryptocurrencies. If their focus is on trades and instant transactions, then just use bitcoin.
Short and simple, they have a skeleton in their cupboard and they can't pretend anymore how threatened they have become each day as Bitcoin keeps pulling down their walls. All I could read from the article is rattling of people who know they already lost it and stand no chance of catching up, much more overtake. One more time, they've clearly demonstrated their hatred and dead wish for Bitcoin and altcoins by extension, but it's already too late. To all the so called big and strong banks, of course, Bitcoin cannot be kicked out, the people have taken their stand with Bitcoin - something they can trust to a very large extent. |

I don't believe btc will sustain such price even till the second fork. I think it's price will be stabilized around 5500$ in nearest days
The second fork looks good to be more significant than the later and market reaction is going quite pronounced unlike the almost nonevent of the Bitcoin gold split. I see the price of Bitcoin rallying some more in the days to follow until the hard fork as bitcoiners gear up to collect free money out of this fork too, before ultimately facing the path they have or would settle for. That also means much fund won't be flowing back to altcoins sooner, so their recovery is going to take a while. |

As aminorex astutely pointed out, the market won't turn until the bulls capitulate. In the past, the appearance of trolls and FUD was a good indicator of the tides changing, but such market patterns tend to collapse as soon as they're recognized. KeyJockey's post indicates a level of short-term uncertainty that leads me to believe we're about to see the next move up. But then again, I thought that was going to happen three weeks ago and I was wrong.
Welp, if it was easy to predict the market we'd all be millionaires. The line between trading and gambling is almost nonexistent. I agree and disagree with you at the same time: while you cannot guarantee a rise in price, it is possible to make a very educated guess and be right like 80%-90% of the time (especially when holding for a long time). That's right, when a coins offers tangible solution to any of the shortfalls in Bitcoin, like the traceability of transactions issue, which Monero is able to checkmate, it means the coin have cornered some market demand and as such, an educated guess would be right, at least 70% of the time and that is certainly good enough for any knowledgeable and skillful trader to end up making some profit. |

I think XRP will be a fine long term investment, but I'd stay away from it if you're hoping to get rich quick.
Ripple is not decentralized and it's no surprise why a number of banks were quick to put their money on it. Moreover, it does not have any specific vacuum that it fills like Monero offering truly untraceable transactions besides having a different codebase. So its market demand is hinged on just being a supposed alternative for Bitcoin and unless Bitcoin is down and out, it has almost no role to play. Bottom line is, it's likely not going to be a good performer for long term investments. |

It is a good time for Crypto Land, we are on the moon,.... and even better.
When we have to sell Bitcoin and buy Altcoin?
Forking makes your Bitcoin higher,
so I can sell it.
These extra money can be used to buy (cheap) altcoins,... anyone has suggestion when do I have to start to buy it?
After the forking, there's a high chance that bitcoin price will drop for a while and altcoins will rise up. I think there's no risk on selling your bitcoin now since its price is high now. And yes, it is also an ideal thing to buy altcoins now while their prices are still low. I recommend you to sell a part of the bitcoin that you have. Then after selling them, buy altcoins at low price but high market cap. You can check these coins at coinmarketcap.com. Altcoins at top 20 or 30 in market cap ranking are preferable. These includes litecoins and ripples. But take note that altcoins are best for a long term investment, so don't expect that after the bitcoin forking, these altcoins' prices will go up immediately. It usually takes some months for them to recover, especially that another bitcoin forking is expected to happen in November. Everything you said was a hammer to the head of a nail except those in bold, altcoins are more apt for speculation and their relatively low capitalization, creates room for manipulations, so they hardly worth the while as long term investments.. We can see that most almost all altcoins made some recovery after the split, but the market generally is anticipating Segwit2x (B2X) so the market for altcoins would most likely be ranging as most traders would prefer to still hodl Bitcoin to collect B2X airdrop. They will soon buy bitcoin a few day before the hard fork occurs. People do really want to collect free coin in this event and they do not give a damn care about the technology or what has changed in the bitcoin blockchain. Well, we have to follow the people if we want to earn money. However, after the hard fork, there will be an extremely big date since we can not know whether bitcoin is bitcoin or b2x is bitcoin lf we were expecting a major correction in the price of Bitcoin, I think we're going to have to wait till the November hard fork. Until then more buying pressure on Bitcoin should be expected, that is the bias of the community and so we might see price attempting the $7000 mark before then. |

SO we all tried HODLing the BTC with the expectation of recieving BTG. Now we see that the BTC price has gone a bit low in the last two days (from the highest it had reached) ,however the price of BTG has made up for this loss.SO I wanna ask most of you, if you feel satisfied with what ever happened?
This is too ridiculous because I was even thinking it should be the range of $800-$1000 but down to $425 is really low but I think its a strategy to ensue people don't dump as much as possible because as the price is this low, quite a number of people will have the intention to hold the more for the price to rise before dumping unlike if it comes at the $1000 range Dumping is imminent and after the hard fork you can be sure that it will be worth far less. Any significant attention it may have received is as a result of the fat cow that it is and milking it now for airdrop and subsequently for cheaper means to mine Bitcoin will remain its lots. |

hi there
I wonder why should governments allow bitcoin to continue growing?
after all, they want to have control over the money that we are using
They don't have a reason. I'm more surprised that a lot of governments haven't been shutting Bitcoin down to be honest. It's something that will completely disrupt the entire power structure of the world, assuming that it grows in the same way it has been over the past few years. Something completely freeing up the average person so that the work they have actually has value instead of giving them a constantly inflating and depreciating token would completely upend a lot of countries' means of controlling their citizens, and that would be profound in far more ways than you may want to believe. It's almost worrying what could happen should Bitcoin replace the primary financial structures. I think they actually have a reason for allowing Bitcoin to grow and the reason is that they have come to realize they cannot effectively ban Bitcoin and it was never for lack of want to try as a number of governments have already experimented with a ban on Bitcoin, but which instead turned out as Bitcoin massive promotion campaigns. Bitcoin is a force, whose time have come, the governments across the globe stand to lose out completely by trying to stand in its way. Their only hope is to instead embrace legalization and have some measure of control or keep fighting a losing battle. |

Losing the best opportunity would be your greatest regret may happen in your life but isn't too late as the other think. Bitcoin is still there, investing bitcoin now is an opportunity again for you and to everyone that are new in crypto. Everyone have still chances to enjoy its greatness and having a party in the future.
That is the best outlook to take, though lot of opportunities might have been lost, but Bitcoin is still here with us, much stronger and resilient, so we can be sure that much more opportunities still lies ahead. As a matter of fact, regretting the past have never resolved any problem, what does is to learn the lesson and then move on. |

It is not definite that the price of bitcoin will decrease after fork. According to veteran traders, the market of bitcoin is speculated to touch $7000.
However, if you are still interested to sell some amount of bitcoin and want to buy altcoins, i would like to suggest some altcoins which have long term potential.
BAT,
OMG,
Waves,
EOS.
You can choose one or all for investments, hope those coins can help you
Presently the price of Bitcoin is high up there while most altcoins are deep in red and all that can be traced to the anticipation of the bonus from latest split from Bitcoin - BTG, hopefully after the hard fork, the price of most altcoins are likely to appreciate, so picking up a number of stable altcoins right now won't be out of place. |

As I said in the title. I was interested in putting my money into Bitcoin because of the ever-increasing price.
But I want to know what the biggest risk is to hold Bitcoin?
Holding Btc is super easy to lose, No mechanism is present to recover lost bitcoins, If your bitcoin wallet gets hacked, all its content gone for good. If you accidentally make a bigger payment with bitcoin , it will gone forever I felt pity and sad after going through the thread in the link below. I don't think there could be a worse situation with Bitcoin than the realization that one's coins are in a particular place and yet unable to reach or have them back. I hope there could be some ways to mark coins of certain amounts to its real owner, that could go a long way to check even ransomeware, though I fear such feature could be hijacked to monitor and make nonsense of anonymity. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2253183.msg22784307#msg22784307 |

Hey everyone. New here! Thank you a lot for this amazing, wonderful community. Hopefully you can give me an advice on this one. I was thinking about invesing it ALL in some alt's 10 - 5 hrs prior HF and buy BTC again (hopefully at 3.7 - 4.3K) a week or two after to prepare again for SX2. These are the icos I'm thinking about getting, along with my expectations (based on some TA and past news): - IOTA: ~65% rise - LSK: ~50% rise after rebranding - NEO: ~40% rise - XLM: ~35% rise - SWIFT: ~40% rise - LINK: ~70% rise - Still HODL ETH. They're all low now despite the good news of few of them because of upcoming BTC HF. What do you think? P.D Don't take my thinking seriously, I've been in this game for a week only. i think the only coin will rise after coming hard fork is bitcoin all other altscoin in the list will go in red again nothing grantee . My keen observation is that pricing in the cryptomarket often show a touch of see-saw mechanism. In view of the forthcoming BTG bonus, there has been buying pressure on Bitcoin, which obviously led to the present ATH and almost all altcoins in red! In the light of that, it can be expected that soon after the hard fork, most of the stable altcoins are likely to turn green and climb up again, so your strategy is in order and more than average for 1 week old bitcoiner. Makes me want to ask, are you really 1 week old in trading? |

Bitcoin remains to be the top cryptocurrency and all other altcoins want to be like bitcoin. The trust of the community makes bitcoin a very stable currency to hold with long term profits evident even from this year's rise alone. I'd rather hodl as much btc than trade in altcoins I am not sure about.
Yes hold is gold .Bitcoin price already hit near 6000$ after this year it will be 8000$ .SO i think bitcoin is better than altcoin. Bitcoin's price hitting $6000 and most of the altcoins reducing makes sometimes hodling more profitable. I lost so much from the trading of altcoin recently since I was holding so many of them and did not dump quickly. I could have held on to them but would not want to take the chance of further dump and good I made that decision. If I did hold my coin in BTC, I would have had more in value but it is just one of those things. Evidently Bitcoin remains the coin to hodl anytime, because it has the highest liquidity and stability unlike altcoins. However the trader in me will also recognize profitable trading opportunities in altcoins when one shows up. Right now, almost all the altcoins have had massive sell off (not dump) and funds moved to Bitcoin in order to take advantage of the Bitcoin Gold airdrop. From hindsight, soon after the hard fork and BTG bonus collected, some of the funds that originally came from altcoins would start finding their way back and their prices would start rallying again. In the light of that, setting some funds aside to buy some altcoins now can be a worthwhile investment decision. The point is grab the profits from altcoins and run to Bitcoin to secure them! |

Hi everyone, I've been trading crypto currencies for a couple months now and since its been going well for me, I thought about creating a website to document my crypto trades for the next year. My goal is to make 50 bitcoins in a year starting tomorrow. It may sound crazy to most but I do believe it is possible. I plan on sharing my daily trades as well as experimenting with different trading techniques. I will be sharing the losers, the winners and probably some expensive lessons lmao. Anyways, I'm halfway done creating the website now and thought, would anyone even be interested in following this kind of journey? I would absolutely love to know. If not, why wouldnt you? Any insight or feedback on what you would personally like to see would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time I don't think earning 50 bitcoins in 1 year is possible, that is 280k $... To win big amounts you need a nice starting capital and probably will need to take some (big) risks. Anyway, good luck and keep us updated! Why on earth do you think making 50 BTC in 1 year through trading is impossible? We can only say it is going to be an uphill task and would hinge on a number of factors like, a substantial starting balance, versed knowledge in trading, patience and discipline then inch by inch, life is a cinch! Op, I like your spirit and looks like we have something in common. I have a similar project, hopeful for January and am a die hard believer that nothing you set your body, mind and soul to, that remains impossible! Go ahead! Yes you can! |
