The problem is when you look at India or Greece where withdrawals are limited, certain notes are no longer accepted etc, this creates a huge problem for the citizens of that country. What are you supposed to do if you have a lot of those bills? Deposit them and take out smaller bills? What about in the future when those bills are now gone? This is where cryptocurrency needs to be used so they never have to worry about what you're doing with your money ever again. It's yours, keep it where you want.

The thing I find the strangest is the fact that people don't want to be in control of their own wealth. It's so strange to think that you'd trust someone else with all of your money and not yourself. How stupid of a society do we have to be to keep the majority of our possessions in a bank?! Oh they have insurance, great. SO if they go bankrupt you get up to 100,000 back. Ok but anyone with 100,000 should just have their own money safely in their own arms. Having to rely on some company is completely ridiculous.

I think the whole point is that they come on over to where you live and they move in with you. Either way this is an obvious scam for ultra lonely pathetic individuals so I'd steer clear.

Read the whitepaper. See if there is anything unique about the coin. If there is something unique is it something that will interest the masses? That's what I'm looking for.

Exactly. Everything else uses the internet so why wouldn't they be dead too? Then would people soley use cash? I doubt it. It would just get fixed or something better would come out of it.

I just gave you some pretty great ideas. The best ones IMO are the first and the last. Hopefully it's what you're looking for. I based them off of quick and secure.

Hobby miners would pop up out of the woodworks, make a lot of money, buy more miners, create a huge farm and we'd be back to where we are now in a few years or less. The price wouldn't change based on my scenario.

A smarter idea would be to use decentralized exchanges only. The problem is I don't know of any and if I did I doubt the volume would be any good on them.

That account you're offering is worthless to most of the world plus it has 2FA? So it's useless to everyone. Offer different collateral.

I'm assuming ad revenue. I guess we'll see once it's out of beta though. It's all automated right? You don't have to wait for someone on the other end to approve with their other half of the private key I'm assuming because that would just be a step in the wrong direction.

Does your service suggest wallets to people? If I send an email to my Grandma she'll never redeem it because she won't know how to get a wallet.

I only came by because when I googled gargle sausage it lead me here. True story. Try it.

What do you want exactly OP?? If you want this so thqtvyou seem more trustworthy I think this is going to backfire big time on you.

If I were to die today I'm sure my wife would know how to at least get on bitcointalk and ask what to do with the paper wallets I have. Any alts on an exchange or otherwise I'm assuming would just be lost unless she or someone else looked through the history on my computer and tried to get on certain exchanges to see if there was a balance.

Not at all. The majority of people I know that use bitcoins don't spend them ever or rarely spend them. I don't have anywhere local that accepts bitcoins and I don't trust online stores that accept them, so it's almost exclusively a store of value for me.

Hahaha of course they accept bitcoins!! Because they're going to take your two and a half bitcoins and in return you'll get a post card in the mail hahaha.

Not really. If someone asks you for a $100,00 ransom because your wife has been kidnapped do you have $100,000 sitting around? If you do, I 100% guarentee you it's not in a bank account. It's equity in real estate, it's a stock, it's mutual funds. So can they give you a deadline to have it? Sure. But is it totally liquid and they'll actually get their money in right then? In 48h? In a week? Depends on what you're invested in. Smart people don't hold fiat in a bank account. That's why the rich get richer.

Wtf? Calm down there. Bitcoins are risky, altcoins are risky^3 and trading altcoins is risky^9. Don't be a naive fool and tell me that you don't think you're amplifying your risks by trying to get a quick profit.

To answer the OP

1) What should I start? Hm? Start with? mainstream coins.
2) Which platform should I use? Any large exchange, they all have the same possibility of being hacked.
3) How can I analyze the Altcoins? Whitepaper, Who is the dev?, is there a thread on bitcointalk? Is it just an obvious pump and dump coin?
4) Auto or Manual? I always do manual. I don't want someone else's strategy while using my own money.
5) From 1-10 how much is risks in trading Altcoins? 10. It's naive to think it's anything other than as risky as trading penny stocks. In 10 years it could be worth absolutely nothing or $100 a coin. You never know.

Oh look, yet another newbie selling yet another great deal. What could possibly go wrong?

I suppose you're ok with supplying the receipt showing you paid cash for a $200 amazon giftcard right? 65% is an obvious scam.

That's what I do with any business I'm going to send money or bitcoins to. Why wouldn't you? Betcoin.ag doesn't really have any positive publicity so it should have been very obvious to avoid them if you had done at the very least the bare minimum of Googling them for crying out loud.

That's really over simplifying everything. If you start actually earning a wage with bitcoin or altcoin trading you'll be subject to your country's tax law regarding capital gains. If you aren't claiming your capital gains you're really shooting yourself in the foot for the future if you get good at trading because you'll be in crap for the past when you didn't claim it.

It doesn't matter what someone says here because nobody knows where the price will go in the short term. It depends on the ETF decision again. I do believe that over the long term bitcoins will go up and up though, so if you are talking about a long term investment then buy what you can afford.

The obvious solution would be a multisig wallet. Even if they could figure out who the owned the other private key they may not be able to get to them if they're say, on the other side of the world or if you left it in a safe place like a bank's safety deposit box. There are lots of ways to make sure you aren't the only one in charge of keeping your bitcoins safe while at the same time not giving someone full access to your precious coins.
