1  Economy / Economics / Re: How Will FB Coin/JPM Coin Impact the Cryptocurrency Ecosystem? on: July 04, 2019, 10:22:11 AM

"On the one hand, these are amazing developments that validate blockchain technology and its potential as a currency system, however, they are also drifting us away from the original vision of a decentralised monetary system. In February 2009, Satoshi wrote on a P2P online forum:

'The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work…but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust'


Taken from the article linked below, worth reading. Do you think the emergence of banking and corporate digital currencies will take away from the original cryptocurrencies or can they live in harmony?

https://medium.com/@marcus_61942/decentralised-cryptocurrencies-vs-digital-currencies-3811e36cc94f


JPM coin has been around for a whole now and I don’t see any changes that it has brought to the crypto System ,so I’ don’t think it is going to bring any change any longer.  I’m just waiting for the facebook Libra coin to start off so I would see how everything about is going to work, the way I see it, the FB Libra coin is likely to bring a lot of changes cause there are lots of companies that are ready to work with the Libra coin . There are also people who are saying they don’t like the Libra coin cause they are believing it wouldn’t be what cryptocurrencies are meant to be… they think it would be something different. We are not sure about that yet… so I’m not going to say anything on it.

JP morgan COE slates bitcoin and crypto and then JPM buys dip and develop blockchain..,,.

Facebook  bans crypto adverts and promo then assings team blockchain   development and will develop own cryptocurrency.,

Bill gates slates bitcoin than just day later wants to use bitcoin's legtening  network.

Banks blocking crypto exchanges and card and closing accounts then goldman sachs launches own crypto..
Media are fond of deceiving people, but I think it all depends on which media you're relying on. And you shouldn't be relying on just one source. When you read news from a site, you should as well do your research if that news is so important, to see if there are other opinions that people have about that same news, then it will be up to you to know which one is saying the truth and which one is not. There are news that you shouldn't miss out on, news that can push the market to a different direction, and you shouldn't miss out on such news. So it's always up to you on what you choose to listen to.
3  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You Need To Put Your Emotion in Trading ? on: November 17, 2018, 07:34:36 AM
If we want to be a successful trader and if we want to make good profiits every trade, then we need to set our emotion aside. Cause emotional people can't get success in trading field.
Trading is not an easy game in the first place and if you mingle your emotions with your thoughts to decide about something, you would never get it straight. But if another man does, it gives you knowledge and enables you to understand about the consequences of the decisions based on the emotional intuitions. In addition, it is of no use in the first place as well. Loss is something that will not benefit you if you make your decisions on the basis of emotions and not data and market signals.
4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taking a break from gambling on: October 01, 2018, 10:18:11 AM
Good luck to your decision and I hope you won't be the same as others said before but later on after a month or two they come back in action.

Having another hobby which will make you put your attention and time there would solve it. Well my story, I just got my employment that really killed my time and only got few to no more time in gambling.
Apparently, from the way he has placed gambling, I am sure even if he decides to come back to gambling, it is not like he still won’t be able to control himself. What he has done basically is to be in control, and that can only happen when you have the right mindset towards gambling and this is totally different when it comes to those who are addicted. People with the wrong mindset of trying to get rich from gambling and usually the ones that will not even find it easy at all to be making decisions like this.
Yeah I agree to this suggestion. A gambler should spend some time in social activities or something else. Continuous gambling will destroy him. He would think only of gambling and want more and more money from gambling, but the results would be different from his expectations and desires. To avoid frustration and depression it is better to quit gambling for some time.
Spending some time in social activities still does not remove the fact that if you are not able to control your gambling activities and set your mind straight without expecting anything from it, you will still end up becoming an addict at the end of the day.

Gambling is one thing a lot of people have made it a problem for themselves based on their outlook towards it, the desire to make money and get rich quick from gambling and with all those kind of emotions erupting, it becomes hard to get out from at the end.
5  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell car for Bitcoin on: September 22, 2018, 11:28:12 AM
My friend decided to sell his car and invest all the money in Bitcoin as some people predict that 1 BTC will reach 500 000$ till the end of 2019.
He totally believes in it and tells that then he could buy not only a new car but a flat also.

Does it really worth it? He uses his car for his work and now he wouldn't be able to do this anymore as he thinks there's no need to work anymore.

This will worth if the market grows before he needs the money for living or something emergencies because he sold the car for the risk of gaining that has no assurance.i am wishing that he won’t end up crying because of the stupidity he made because in crypto only INVEST WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE
Selling something which are useful in our daily life for something which just needs your savings and does not need you to sell your car or home for investment. Whatever the situations may be you have to start investing in Bitcoin or other crypto coins only with your savings and nothing more to put your money at risk. It is risk for you because you do not know up till now that you have to use only your savings for investment indicating that you have no perfect knowledge.
6  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how much usd need for trade ?? on: June 06, 2018, 11:57:41 AM
Hey i am new here and want to be expert on trading so how can start and how much money for this?please give me some site or link where find trading tips and get more knowledge about it
I believe any amount is okay, you just need the skills for trading to be able to make something out of it. If you can’t make anything out of $300, then I don’t think you will be able to make something out of $30,000. The amount you invest will only determine how much you will earn from the business. If you invest a small amount then you will make a small amount of money, but if you invest a big amount of money, then your profit will also be a very big one.
7  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits of gambling? Yes - it exists! on: June 06, 2018, 11:26:37 AM
This won't help mate as most of the people here will have an expected feed back. Although we already know that there's benefit in gambling but otherwise we don't have the same feathers.
"Gambling is not good" , "gambling is harmful" etc.
No doubt gambling is bad, gambling is harmful and there are many bad effects of gambling on the whole. Gambling is beneficial for those who are experts and they know the tricks to win the bet. They can make big money in seconds, while other who has no or very little experience of gambling can lose all their money. Gambling is good only for experts.


I also believe this is true, but the problem is gambling is a form of competition, and humans will always be competitive. Whilst there is one human who thinks he is better than another, a gambling type circumstance will always form. e.g. I bet you I can do this, and you can't. It's only natural that systems form around this trait to make it easier to wager.

Benefits is that you can easily while your time, you can get many beverages to eat in casinos, if you win then it is bonus as you everything else you are getting is free and do not have to spend and above that if you win is like you are the luckiest of them all as mostly people will lose money. Also you can make some good buddies as well.

I am unable to understand that what do you mean by you can easily while your time. Does it really make any sense? Come on man I think you don’t even have the lightest notion about the benefits of gambling. Beverages are present in gambling casinos but you have to pay for them if you want and these beverages never become free for the gambler who wins because this portion is not linked with casino.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: June 06, 2018, 10:51:31 AM
I can literally stop gambling today if i wanted to, but then a very entertaining part of my life would be missing.
If you have to ask yourself this simple question, you may want to try to tone down your gambling habits.
This is so strange to see people talking like this. Although everyone has different mindset and different thinking but still, this destruction should be obvious. We have to take good care of our minds and must inform them what to control and what not to. And gambling is one of the thing that must be neglected or opposed from mind and it should be seen implemented as well.
9  Economy / Speculation / Re: The whole market is experiencing slump in last few days. on: June 06, 2018, 09:49:14 AM
The market is not positive and since the beginning of may , the price of major cryptocurrency has been fallen and not all that stable. It may take some time for it reach it true price.
it's really important that we all have to stay patient waiting for the market back up again as before, because in this month same month last month the market experienced an unimaginable decline. but with the time is not long certainly the market will be back in the original

Well it only seem as an unimaginable decline because we touched almost 20k for our all time high last december. That isn't a normal movement of btc and it's understandable that we're going to have a backlash after that. Look at the charts from a bigger point of view and you'll see that month per month, we're still growing. I just don't know how the last quarter would be though since that ath would be hard to touch again.
This is nice if in real means we are growing in regard of prices. Bitcoin is going to have may be little bit more hard times but at the end of the day, we all are going to see massive increase in the prices of bitcoin and its followers. I am still very much confident about huge increase in the values of bitcoin by the end of the December and this is why I am not inclined towards selling my bitcoin in dumps.
10  Economy / Economics / Re: Invest in BTC vs Invest in Real Estate? on: June 05, 2018, 06:21:38 AM
For me bitcoin investment is more interesting and profitable than other investments such as real estate, gold, stocks and so on, this is because bitcoin prices can go up hundreds of percent annually while real estate goes up no more than 20% per year.
For me, every investment is great if done with better learning and understanding. I believe in the thing that you mustn’t be so hurry to just jump into something after just a little demo. No, rather you must be learning amazing and till the deep core is obtained, try and learn. And after that you can easily go for anything that seems interesting to you. Bitcoins are little much better than others.
11  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Low activity long term BTC investing? on: June 05, 2018, 05:49:22 AM
I have some BTC asleep in my wallet doing nothing, therefore I want to put them in work to increase their value.
I've already looked into crypto trading but that requires spending much time reading about the projects to find good ones with potential and staying up to date with it, however my main concern is that I don't have much time to follow up on them :-/
Also thought about running a Loan service, however it takes as much time in validating the loans and keeping up with them, not to mention with my current trust it's highly unlikely to find a valid loan since they'd go for more trusted users.
My final thought was lending my funds to an existing loan service for a small return, which sounded good idea first... but I couldn't find a loan service that seems to be short on funds  Undecided

Anyone got other ideas that will  get me some revenue without having to spend much time following up with it? something set & forget for couple months (maybe check once every month or two)?
What you want is something that seems very difficult you want to obtain great profits but you do not want to go through the trouble of making all the effort to make all that money, the only thing I can say to you is that it is impossible if you want to make profits the only way is to dedicate your time and effort to something, after all the money does not grow on the trees if you want it you need to work for it.
Making of the money is not an easy thing as it seems to be and that it really demands you top put in the best of your efforts. You must do the best and that, you must remain consistent in your work so that you can get what all you want to have in your life. Long term holding of the coins is a good thing to do but for that, you must remain patient so that you may not suffer any loss.
12  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never Be greedy! on: June 02, 2018, 09:59:59 AM
yes you are right, better not to be greedy, you better take a fair profit because when you are greedy you can be a lot of losses, fortune already set not too much take profit.
Greed would be harming you. Humans are greedy and they want to get more and more even after they had enough money. But in trading, if you become greedy, you might be losing all what you have, slowly and gradually. So better is when you have got enough profit, you wouldn’t be going for more anymore. Reason is, if you go further, this might be of great loss to you.
13  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Digital Currency Take Over on: June 02, 2018, 09:28:06 AM
As we can see now everyone/every developed nation is moving towards digital currency. In your opinion how much time is required for digital currency to take over the current/existing market or it is impossible that digitisation will never be successful. If yes what are those factors ? In my opinion those countries which are not accepting digital currency, are doing wrong. They are only thinking about the tax. They are saying that we will not get any tax and digital currencies are fake. Fraud is very easy in digital world (that is true but it also happen in every market). Although when someone is doing business in digital currency then that person is bringing money to country that is beneficial for the country...
And you think that by most countries accepting Bitcoin that will make it take over everything and being used by everyone, well you think wrong. It can take over, but that will have to be in whatever that has to do with investments and of course we can use it as a payment method, though not all countries approves that. Bitcoin is making success, but I don’t think it will replace the currency we are making use of.

A lot of us think that with more level of adoption of bitcoin, fiat will just be discarded and we think government will allow that? Moreover, government does not even have to worry for such scenario to happen as this idea of digital currency will be limited to the internet world with more of the digital age guys, the tech savvies, the internet vast category of people using it the more while there would be some category who would prefer the traditional way, so thinking cryptocurrency will take over is a big NO.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Wait for higher profit or sell and buyback? on: June 02, 2018, 08:26:01 AM
I recently have problem with buyback. Before, I think aiming for higher profit is the best, but when I don't sell it, the price is bouncing and it go down again. So I think another way to gain profit by buying back when the price bouncing.

What do you think? And what do you prefer, buyback or hold?
Both of them are good, some people will prefer to HODL their cryptocurrencies till the price goes up to a much better price, then they will withdraw their money and wait for another good chance to start up all over again. But if I’m to choose, I might prefer to withdraw immediately, cutting my loss and investing back immediately when it gets down and is about to fluctuate back up. That will increase your profit.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: Expected predictions on: June 01, 2018, 09:53:14 AM
That's just predictive , no one can know exactly how  the bitcoin price will be in the future because bitcoin is always influenced by many factors. But in the future, I believe the bitcoin price will be much higher than in 2017 because the cryptocurrency market is still a new market and it is attracting a lot of investors and big companies, besides bitcoin is believed to be a bubble and it will explode when its price is really high .
I have been following the crypto experts and some investors on the social media and have had debates about the crypto and its future. People are very optimistic about the future. They are of the view that the prices will rise high in the current year to award people who have invested. Besides, the award will attract further investment and might lead to a much higher rise in the monetary values in the days to come so people have positive vibes about the future.
I will say clearly as Bitcoin is unpredictable and rarely predictions hit the center but most of the predictions are uncertain and this is due to the alteration of factors in the market. The estimation of Bitcoin gives us the most precise and accurate value up to some extent but not absolute one. All you need to make decisions according to the present market conditions and take care of your investment in the light of market rules and principles.

16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: June 01, 2018, 09:20:12 AM
I should stop when my money runs out. but I just want the victory to come to seize the defeat yesterday. quite difficult to stop. the only thing that is most effective is to get away from a gambling environment, and focus on work.

Have a target lose or win, make it we have a limit to know it is time to stop on gambling
If do not have a target in gambling, We can't manage of money and time.
I stop gambling when I win a lot of money because I know that if I continue I will lose not only the winning but also my own money. Therefore it is best to quit gambling atone when you realize that now you have made handsome money. There are other days to come. You can gamble more on other day but don’t continue on the same day.
Winning a lot of money should not even be the only criteria to gambling, and in fact the best criterion is when you have lost your entire limit which you must always set for yourself. Gambling is not a way to make money, it is more like a way to waste money catching some fun and you want to be able to control and set limit for yourself when catching such fun. For instance you cannot go pay for a movie and sit in the cinema all the day or keep paying to watch movie all day, may be people should start seeing casino like going to the movies but in this aspect, you are playing some game of luck.
I think thinking of winning a lot of money should never be the thinking of any gambler who loves to play gambling because when he will have this type of thinking, he will forget that whether gambling will be good for him or not and thinking it a good thing, he would definitely cross all of his limits that he would have once set for himself in gambling and at last would suffer from the consequences of gambling. 
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambler's mindset! on: June 01, 2018, 08:25:07 AM
actually sometimes that causes me lost in gambling is due to ambition is so great to win the bet, but instead the opposite that I get the defeat.
It is good to see people who have some sense of living their lives. You have done so amazing that you have learnt better in time what to do and what not to do. Gambling is all about faking your luck and then fading your lives later on. So don’t just do badly with yourself and your family too. Live a good life and earn from some respectable source that can impart a good living.
That is a good advise, gambling is not really a helpful activity when we are talking of earning money.
It's actually wasting money because you do not win all the time, or even most of the time, they have the house edge so you have to pay to enjoy.

so we don't have to keep playing the games in the gambling places in every day and I am sure that we have another activity to do and it's more important than just playing gambling only. or maybe we need to spend a little to get fun with our friends and we are only enjoying the games without thinking to play for a long time.
I think gambling addicts can take control over this addiction of them as nothing is impossible in this world to do. Gamblers are not willing to leave this addiction that’s why they are never been able to leave it. I bet if gamblers would try to leave gambling, they would easily do that as they would come over many interesting things in their lives more than gambling and they would enjoy them.
18  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What's your trading strategy? on: May 30, 2018, 09:41:55 AM
Buy when cheap and sell when high.
I am following the trading strategies of experts and do not want to take a deep swim but just following the strategies normally and without any difficulty that give me a positive response always. Now follow the basic market rules and principles and do trade accordingly, this will lead you towards success and after every successful trading price you will make huge profit at the end.

As much as I like your work, I still want to say that I’m not the type of person that go around wearing a shirt with Bitcoin logo on it or with any description or something that has to do with Bitcoin. This is probably a waste of time. It will be best for you to open an offline shop where you will be designing shops or. Something and getting paid. I also know some sites online where people get paid for designing T-shirts, but that’s if yours is chosen.

You may be right but the fact is if you are there in the world of the digital currencies and that you want the things to be in your favor, then you must play your part and that you need to make more people aware of this crypto currency and that you must encourage them to use the crypto currencies and to invest their money into it. Wearing of the bitcoin T-shirts is the best thing one can ever do.
20  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How I handle crypto regret on: May 29, 2018, 07:37:22 AM
you should not be too regretful, take advantage of the existing situation, when the cheap price always try to buy coin and sell when the price is green and when it is getting the benefits and better you control your patience.
You can handle crypto regret by not repeating the mistakes you made in past. Keep looking at the market condition and start modifying your plan to stay safe. Keep the investment long term and stay optimistic by which I mean to say do not panic. You will be able to kill the crypto regret when you earn again big with your mental capabilities and market knowledge by playing the same crypto game.
Learning from your mistakes, this is a better way to not to regret next time but the foremost is to make your mind easy with loss and profit. Don’t be just over reactor after a profit and never lose your heart to quit trading once you get loss. This must be practiced again and again and your heart must be so strong to even make the things better. You are a strong man and never lose hope then.
