Misleading title. Nice clickbait.

I don't understand why banks think this any different than fiat. It's just fiat 2.0 and it has the exact same problems as fiat.

Who cares if ethereum passes bitcoins? It's all FOMO on a buggy shitcoin. Omg guys I have 600billion ripple! They're worth $14USD now! Lolol. Oh damn, they just made 400quadrillion more. Damn. Mine are worthless now.

1. Does it have any real use?
2. Is it innovative (not just yet another clone of bitcoins)
3. How popular is it already?

The top 25 altcoins aren't necessarily the best picks for big gains, but the lower you go on coinmarketcap.com the more risk you're taking of investing in a shitcoin. How do you predict where the price will go? It's all luck. Coins get pumped and dumped everyday. Choose a few you like and hold on for the wild ride.

Sssssssort of. Ish. Kinda sorta maybe lol.

On the one hand, yeah in certain countries it will help you get a job anywhere in the world, but on the other hand it may reduce jobs in your local area if you can find someone that can do it remotely for much cheaper.

I appreciate when people do .

Don't invest more than you're willing to or able to lose. Don't invest all in one coin. Don't invest in obvious terrible coins like ripple or NEM. Don't sell at a low point. You'll almost always regret it.

I know right? I always feel like I'm the dumbest one talking here haha. I know I'm not, but if we go to the technical support threads I'm usually pretty clueless compared to the few geniuses around there.

$1300 to $100. Now that's a crash. $2700 to $1900? Wtf who cares? It's big but it's not a 90% dip so who gives a flipping crap!?

If you're looking to trade altcoins you're just trying to get something that rises faster than bitcoins so the amount you purchase bitcoins for is irrelevant.

In the west we deal with a lot of old timer idiots in government who don't want anything to change. At some point someone new will ce in when that moron retires and we'll only be 10 or 20 years behind every Asian country.

Yep. So it's just going to make things easier and get the wheels moving. It's not going to make it so everyone there dumps but instead they will be much more confident in bitcoins and buy more to trade with.

Altcoins are purchased by morons. Morons that are trying to get more bitcoins. If bitcoins drop, so do altcoins because these morons are really bad at math and everything is based on bitcoin prices. If you look at how many bitcoins it takes to purchase a monero let's say, you'll notice the change is within a normal range. This is because they are all too derpy to understand that they should actually be worth more because bitcoins dropped. But they aren't. Why? Because this isn't there true value, it's just FOMO. Sell your alts, get back into btc and stay put.

So basically a REAL decentralized version of Ethereum. We'll that makes sense. I'm all for it. Guess I'll just keep HODLing on for dear life. Time for everyone to dump their crappy eth.

If that's true I'll buy all of your sig spam money for $500/BTC. Send me a PM. Happy to do it asap. Oh noes! The crash! Sell to me at $500/ea quick!

It's the same with sticks too. The selling is so quick because people panic and want to hang onto profits. Bitcoins aren't going down or into a bear market anytime soon so this is just a temp situation. There hasn't been much movement in the past two hours so I'm expecting we pump right back up to $2200 or so today and continue on the track to $3000 soon after. These giant pumps and dumps mean nothing when you invest so long ago that your money is triple, or 5x it's original value.

This is exactly what tether and other cryptocurrencies promised to do but as you can see tether is all over the place lately. 90% a month ago, 106% today. It's still a relatively stable currency but it won't be a dollar for dollar match anymore. Maybe someone else has a better algorithm than them.

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. You'll sell at a LOW point? Are you durping too hard right now or what? I'll buy your bitcoins right now @$500 a piece so you don't have to worry about selling them if they drop that low. Deal?

A broken clock is right twice a day. If you expect a crash every day and once a year there is a drop of course you'll be right. Let's see if we're in a bear market or if this is not a trend but just a correction.

I only buy altcoins to later sell them for a profit in terms of bitcoin value. So this is true for me. Also, I hold off on transactions a long time and don't spend as often so my fees are only used when I actually need to pay them. What I mean by that is I send some funds to another one of my wallets but what I do is sometimes wait until every other time I get funds to send them so it's half as many inputs into the next address.

We're already heading back up. Neigh sayers are going to be pissed when bitcoins hit $3000/ea next week. You think the Japanese are done loading up on bitcoins already!? Ya right.

It means after rising $1200 USD there is a correction. Are you fucking daft? Hahaha. My God people here are so unrealistic it's ridiculous.

A ponzi is one person or business that takes funds, shows people fake results and then pays out the interest to people using new people's money. Bitcoins you can cash out at any point. If you're stupid enough to think it's a ponzi then why are you even registered at bitcointalk? Maybe try a google search first. I didn't read past this point. Your arguments are null and void. Not an opinion (like your wild guess) but fact.
